RAvAeEs OF GRAIN SHUTS.
Means of Prevention Outlined by the Agri.
 cultural College.

Means of Prevention Outlined by the Agri-
 cultural College.
 The ravages of the grain smuts are reviewed and the means of prevention outlined in a report of the agricultural department. The oat smut, which is found throughout the United States and is known on every continent, prob ably has the widest distribution of any of the species. The official estimate of the direct loss from it is eight per cent. of the crop, or about eighteen million dollars annually. Stinking smuts in wheatfelds cost the country many mil lions of dollars annually. Sometimes fifty or seventy-fve per cent. of the heads are smuttcd and the sound grain :s so contaminated with the fctid spores As to be nearly worthless for flour and worse than useless for seed. The dis ease is often spread from farm to farm by thrashing machines. When once Introduced, if left unchecked it iD- creases year by year until a large per -eentage of the crop is destroyed. The loose smut usually causes loss of ten per cent. or more of the wheat crop, and has even been reported as destroy ing over fifty per cent. of crop in Michigan. It is very difficult to pre- vent, and ordinary treatment has little effect. Wheat growers are urged to try to secure seed wheat from fields known by careful examination at four ing time to be free from loose smut. It can, however, be combated by treating rough wheat to furnish seed the follow ing year. Both the common and hid den forms of smut can be eradicated with equal ease, and by treating seed oats oat growers can save many mil lions of dollars annually. Cat smut can be eradicated by two rcwly-dis- covered treatments of tho seed by use of potassium sulphidc and hot water. Hot water is also advocated for erad- icating loose smut of wheat and barley smut and copper sulphate for wheat smut. The hot water and potassium sulphite seed treatment result in an in- crease in the yield, averaging double or treble what would result from sup pressing the visible smut.

PRESENTING THE KEYS.
Tfme-Honored Ceremony Still Observed
 by the Authorities of Edinburgh.

 x1me-Honored Ceremony strl Observed
 by the Authorities of Edinburgh.
 Annually as the lord high commis- sioner goes to Holyrood, Edinburgh, to attend, in the name of the queen, the general assembly of the Church of Scotland, the lord provost, accom- panied by some of the magistrates, re- pairs to the palace and goes through the ancient, time-honored ceremony of presenting to him the keys of the city, and he at once returns them to the chief magistrate as the one best fitted to retain them in custody.
 But one trembles, says the Chicago Chronicle, to think what might happen if the lord high commissioner, sudden ly developing love of keys such as led to the undoing of poor Fatima. should retain those which the lord provost presents, and ask to be taken forth with to the gates of the city that he might satisfy himself as to its security. He would learn, to his horror, that there are no city gates, no locks, or bolts, or bars, or meats, or draw bridges, and that the invader may march right on to the castle without any such form of impeachment.
 Much that is old and interesting there is in Edinburgh, but the city gates are no more. Few of the fathers and brethren at the assembly time give heed to the archaeological survivals which are passed as one goes down to Holvrood> by way of High street and Cannongate, beginning with John Knox's house, it's quaint stone carvings. its still quainter admonition: 'Lvee God abee al, and vi nychtbour as vi self" Farther down, and in the Can- nongate, is the Tolbooth police station, and still near Holyrood is the Blake house close, entered through tene- ment of dwellinghouses bearing date 1870. At distances varying from half doz- en to twenty or thirty yards, High street and Cannongate are pierced by closes bearing family names entering into the past history of the city-such names as Gibb, Pirrie, Rae, etc. Nice distinctions, too, are made, Little Jacks close having its larger counterpart in Big Jacks close, Playhouse close it's repetition in Old Playhouse close, and Lochend close diminishing to Little Lochend close.
 Some of these closes are exceedingly picturesque; others smell as badly as the leading street in Naples. They arc, however, quite worth exploring, and sometimes you come on glimpses of sunny slopes in the Calton hill direc- tion which gladden. the eye. Jeffrey street may be said to frame the Calton jail as one looks across the narrow gorge through which the North British railway is carried. This abode of sighs runs to highly-artistic lines. Based on the everlasting rock, and situated at a considerable height. it almost recalls one of the castellated peaks of the | Rhine. And vet it is only a prison.

Trains and Bicycles Compared.

During the last twenty years the improvements in railroads have been remarkable, but they must be more re- markable in the next twenty. When we sec crashing past us that enormous mass of iron and wood called the vestibule train we are prone to wonder at the wide difference between the construction of this train and that of a bicycle. A twenty-one and one-half pound safety" will carry a one hun dred and fifty-pound man at nearly the same rate of speed as the train, but for every one hundred and fifty-pound man the vestibulc train must carry a dead weight of between three thou sand and four thousand pounds. Now, as the bicycle is practical machine, the train must be unnecessarily heavy; and if there is such discrepancy in one important point may not an equal discrepancy exist in other important DOintS?

WANT TWO DEMONSTRATORS.
Russian Jews Refuse to Travel on a Vesse
 Eouipped with But One.

Russian Jews Re1uSe to Travel on tess6
 Equipped with But One.
 A steamship ticket agent on the East side whose business is chiefly with Pol is;l and Russian Hebrews who are about to return to their homes tells of . peculiarity of his customers, says the New York Tribune. No one of them wants to travel on vessel having only one smokestack. Somehow these peo- ole have an idea that ship is not safe, handsome, comfortable and speedy un- less she has two or three stacks. Their passage costs them only twenty dollars, and they arc not solicitous about baths or the decorations of their quarters, but on the point of single funnel they are as firm as a rock. A great many passenger steamships have only one stack. Some new ones in which the steerage accommodations are especial ly roomy and well ventilated have no more. and the returning Poles insist they will not travel on them. The ticket agents feel no compunction about assuring their customers that the ship on which they are going to sail has three ''rochers" (sInol1ers), as the Hebrews call them, and even point to big picture of her on the wall, which serves as the likeness of any vessel which may be talked of.
 When the man and his family arrive at the pier on the day of sailing there is likely to be trouble when he dis covers that his ship has only one mis- erable smolSestack. Sometimes the people refuse point-blanlS to go on board, and say they will wait for a steamer with three smokers" An ef- fective subterfuge has been invented for such cases. Solemn assurance is given that the ship has three or four smokestacl-s. but that all but one short one were taken down so that the ship could pass under the Brooklyn bridge. As soon as she got out to sea the ad- ditional stacks would be put in place and she would speed proudly on her way. The ignorant East sidcr doesn't know that vessels passing to sea from the Hudson river never get within two miles of the bridge, and takes his fami- ly on board. What he says and does when he learns that he has been de- ceivcd does not bother the ships off, cers particularly.

A RABBIT PARLIAMENT.
The Prolific Animal Bafles Law and
 Science.

The Prolific Animal Baf1es Law and Sciehce'
 A rabbit parliament was held in Aus tralia. This was not convention of the animals, but great gathering of gentlemen who are engaged in their extermination.
 For four days, says the Philadelphia Record, representatives from every part of the colony held high debate over the animals performances. But acts of parliament seem vain in this matter and science itself bankrupt. The New South Wales government at one period had more than three thou sand men employed in killing rabbits. It has erected fifteen thousand miles of rabbit-proof fencing. It once offered twenty-five thousand pounds sterling for a specific against rabbits, and though it received two thousand schemes, the too prolific bunny has trirmphed over them all, and at the present moment the land department of New South Wales has one million acres of abandoned land, thrown up in consequence of the reckless march of the rabbit.
 The rabbit parliament seems to have failed to produce any clear and strib- ing results. A score of ''infallible" specifies, ranging from fevrets to tank slaughter, had their advocates, but about these doleful experience made the delegates shake their heads. If the rabbit could be turned into profit able export the question would be solved, but this seems out of the ques- tion. The policy favored by the con- ference is that of 'grid-ironing' the col ony with rabbit-proof fences, transfer ring the duty of suppressing the rab- bit from the state to private land-own- CTS, and giving the landowner every possible help in carrying on the cam paign against his furry and fOur-legged foe."

BICYCLE GUMS.
Another Physical Peculiarly Said to Be
 Due to the Wheel.


 Due to the Wheel.
 Bicycle riding and poor teeth are about the last two subjects one would place together, but that an overfond- ness for indulgence in exercise upon the wheel is developing a diseased con dition of the gums and teeth can be testified to by many unfortunate vic tins and their dentists.
 It is caused. says the New York World, by the extra effort necessitated in ascending hills or in running races, and the short, quick brcaths of cold air that strike the overheated gums through the open mouth develop con- gestion of those parts. The face swclls as with an ordinary toothacbe, pus forms around the teeth and loosens them, and in many cases leads to their extraction later, and the pain is equal to having all ones teeth ulcerating at once.
 A prominent dentist stated, when in- terviewed upon the subject. that he had had several cases of that kind. Ut comes," he said, from an abnormal current of air, from fast riding, strl.l- ing the gums, and if the popularity of the bicycle continues it will develop a new feature in dentistry. At private meeting of several dentists the other evening we found, upon comparing notes, that these cases arc increasing. The only preventive is a difficult one to follow, and that is, always ride with the mouth closed. The same effect, however, is caused by an unnatural draft of air, as, for instance, sitting in front of an electric machine for d long period. 1 have had several cases of that nature from hotel stewards and their assistants. whose offices gre gen. orally situated in the basement. where chang ,lE air can he trorg gh: about oy arti1ai> .l means"
