] layed on Wheels.

a cycling genius has evolved game
which can be played on wheels. 1t is
called the royal game and requires a
court or field, divided into alleys
Two teams Of nine riders each take
part, and the field is divided into a
right and left field, with the course
chalked out plainly. An alleyway,
constructed of ropes or cables, ex.
tends from the upper to the lower
field on the division line between the
right and left field. Cables also form
two upright sides between which the
play wheel rolls and is driven back
ward or forward by the ridero in pass
ing Mt any point between the lower
and upper field. The play wheel is a
single bicycle rim, having four and
one-half-inch pneumatic tire. The
object of the game is to drive this
play wheel from the centre field,
through attack Of opponents, to goal
ahead, the riders using sticks especi.
ally made for the game. The ends of
the alleyways are the goals for the re-
spective teams. Players ride in sim
gle file and always circle to the left.
Thus the two trains are constantly
meeting and passing each other in OPP
posite directions on the upper sides of
the alleyway. Royal is game re
quiring swift riding and much skill,
and novice would scarcely venture
to form one of team.

silk From Netties

Man has grasped the nettle and
made from it the finest silk. All the
nsttles have dbrous stalks. The fibre
IS enveiope6 Il hard ba-k, with a
great deal OF gummy juice in and un-
der 1t, and till that is thoroughly re-
moved cannot be utilized for textile
purposes. In India and China, where
the nettle crop has long been known,
labor is cheap, and consequently the
bark is stripped off by hand, and the
fibres cleansed. spun, and woven in
primitive fashion, form the basis of
many of those native stuffs that are in
valuable to the "heathen Chinee," but
never get into the market. John Bull,
however, hates to be beaten, and has
thoroughly investigated the nettle
question. The fact that the stalks
must be stripped while green ha, hith-
erto presented the greatest difficulty,
where cheap hand labor is not to be
had on the spot. Something like six
ty machines had to be made before the
exact thing could be hit upon which
would break mp and remove the bark,
and press out goodly proportion of
the resinous gum that sticks the fbres
together. But it was found at last,
and now fine and remarkably strong
silk is spun from the commonest weed
that dots the roadside.

MuLCHING poIArnrs.

Dwight Herick, of Rochelle, III is
a believer in mulching potatoes, aud
his experience seems fully to Justify
his faith. He thus relates one expert
encc Of many:
In 1896 an acre was mulched i'm
mediately after planting with horse
manure, mostly direct from tho
stables. Eighty large loals were used.
This acre was part OF n twenty.acre
field. All were planted with mn As.
pinwall planter, about four inches
deep, fifteen inches apart in the row,
aud rows three and one-half feet apart |;
all were planted in four days; variety,
Rural New Yorker No. 2.
Those under the mulch were tho
last to come up, but soon caught up
and outstrIpped the others. A few
large weeds came up here and there
and were pulled by hand; otherwise
10 culture was done. The balance of
the field was cultivated in the most
improved manner.
Those under tho mulch ma.urcd
about ten days earlier than those not
mulched and yielded 800 bushels. Tho
balance OF the field yielded 1870 bu .hels
an acre. In quality those mulched
were perfect, shape uniform and very
smooth nm clean, while those not
mulched were extremely poor IN quail

A Strong Snake story.

The latest snake story comes from
South Africa. 1t is recorded in the
Transvaal, published in Cape Town,
as cold fact, that in Sekukiniland n
native ran across boa constructor
measuring about forty-sevcn feet,
which had Just swallowed young
koodoo buck, all except the horns.
The horns stuck out on each side of
the reptiles mouth. The native rec.
ognized the horns rs those OF buck
he owned, aud he ran and got sticks
and pinned the serpent, which was
dormant, to the ground. Then he got
hold of the horns and pulled and
tv -J. He got the buck out inch by
inch, until half its body showed, and
then it came with jerk, and the boy
fell over on his back. Before he had
time to think twice the snake. re.
Iieved of his load of mutton, was upon
him, and it seized his head in it's
mouth and in three minutes the ma.
tive had taken the place OF tho buck,
only he was all inside there was
nothing left out to pull on, even if a
rescuer had come along. Having
swallowed the boy the boa deliberately
swung it's head around and grabbing
its tail swallowed eight feet of it, then
closing the mouth and throat down
which the native had disappeared, and
making escape almost impossible.
The Transvaal vouches for the truth
of the story. London Times.
