MEMCo's SEISMIC MYSTERY.
THE EARTHQUAKE LOCALIZED
AROUND TEHUANTEPEC.


The Territory Affected 80 Miles Long
by - Miles Wide-subterranean
Roaring and Rambling Frequent
ly Heard without ANY Disturbance
of the Earth.s Crust-Eastern Part
of the Isthmus Likely TO Sink and
BE Over-run by the Ocean.
Oaxaca, Mex, Feb. 1.-Earthquakes in
the region of the City of Tehuantepec. in
this state, are puzz.ing the local scien-
lists
The localization of the seismic phenome-
ma is remarkable, fully 60 per cent of the
movements being confined within space
of fifty miles in one direction and twenty
five miles in another, and one of the note
worthy things is that the subterrancan
roaring and rumbling are frequently heard
without any connection on the earth's
crust.
In some localities the noises are similar
TO those of a constant bombardment, and
1t would seem that the town was under
siege.
The recent series of shakes in the last
half of January were as formidable as
when the disturbance first began about
year ago. Fortunately no loss of life
has been reported.
One theory now held here is that the sea
will rush across a narrow neck of land
and give an open waterway between the
Pacific and Gulf of Mexico This is an
extreme opinion and is hardly worth con-
sidering, for up to the present time the
phenomena has been confined within a
stated measurement, proving that the dis
turbance is local. None of the shocks
have been felt in the City of Mexico,
Guadalajara of Puebla, but there have
been severe shocks here, however.
That something is going to happen is
believed, but no one knows what 1t is
entirely within the limits of possibility
that the eastern part of the isthmus will
sink, allowing the sea to come in, which
would reduce the width of the isthmus
considerably.
Tehauntepec, Feb. 1-Earthquake shocks
have stopped for twenty-four hours, but
no one here believes that the great sub
terranean commotion is over permanently,
for already there have been several series
OF shocks, spreading over more than a
year. There Is no panic, although pro-
found curiosity is felt as to what will be
the result. All shocks are felt south of
the mountain range, and not to the north
of them.

FARM WATER SUPPLY.
Why the Wall of the Well should BE
Substantially and Carefully
Backed with Gravel.

If when the we'll is first built the
wall, although of stone, brick or sew
er pipe, is properly backed with gravel
no mud or sand will come into the
we'll. no cavern will be formed and no
"cle airing OUT will be required.
/ have made 4 drawing to illustrate
thi&. 1t is section through the bot
tom of the well. On the right-hand
side the wall is shown backed with
gravel as it should be, the earth be-
yOnd standing intact. The left-hand
side shows the result where the inev-
liable spaces behind the wall were not
SO filed when the well was built. The
dark shading TO tie left is a section
through the soft slime in the bottom
of the cavern; the cavern above being
shown in something the shape it will
take where the water is very shallow, as
it is in many old wells.
OF course we do not find the walls
regular and in courses, a in the draw
ing, but shapeless or in all shapes,
The top of the wall is shown ready to
serve as the foundation of tube OF

BUSY BUMBLE-BEES.
The Part Which These Busy Little
Workers Play fn the FertiIiza-
tiOn of Many Flowers.

Barney Hoskin Standish writes an ar
dele on THE Bumble-Bee'' for ST.
Nicholas. Mr.. Stand;sh says: The work
Of the bumble-bee in bringing about the
Decentralization of flowers is as i'm
portant as that of the honey-bee, and
these two. stand at the head of the list
Of insects useful in this respect. Each
has its flowers which it alone visits, but
there are many flowers on neutral
ground, visited by both. So we may
Iay of the bumble-bee, as of the honey
pee, the more bumbIe-bee the more
feeds; the more seeds the more flowers
especially wild flowers, as the tall bell
Hover, touch-me-not, Solomon s-seal,
gentian, Dutchmen' s-breeches and tur-
tle-head. But probably the most i'm
Portant work this insect does for agri-
culture is upon the fields of red clover.
There is abundant proof that this plant
will not produce seed without the CO.
operation of the bumble-bee. 1t is i'm
possible for the wind to bring about the
fertilization of the seed, as it may do in
the case of Indian corn, grain and some
forest trees. The tube of red-clover
blossoms, too, is so long that other in
sects Gncluding the honey-bee) are not
regular visitants.
Here is proof that this plant must
have visits from the bumble-bee. This
insect is not native of Australia, and
red clover failed to produce seed there
until bumble-bees were imported. As
soon as they became numerous the
plant could be depended upon for seed
Again, the blossoms of the first crop of
the medium red clover" of our own
country are just as perfect as those of
the second crop, but there are too few
bumble-bees in the field, so early in the
season, to produce fertilization; hence
little or no seed in this crop. If humble
bees were sufficiently numerous there
is no reason why much larger yields of
clover seed might not be expected than
at present.
Here is what a well-informed farmer
says about it:
1T was formerly thought that the
world rested On the shoulders of Atlas.
[ can prove that its prosperity rests on
the bumble-bee. The world cannot
prosper without the farmers product.
The farm will not be productive with
out clover. We cannot raise clover
without seed, and we cannot have
clover-seed without the bumble-bee, be-
cause it is this insect that carries the
pollen from flower to flower, securing
Its development and continuance. Let
US learn to know and to protect our
friends"

ALL AROUND THE FARM.

Shorts contain nearly double the bone
and muscle forming elements, when fed
to swine, that barley does.
We know man who has broken i'm
plements enough in cultivating stumpy
ground to buy two stump pullers.
Somebody calls attention to the fact
that crooked burrows make more dis
tance in Flowing. 1t is a little thing,
but the little things count.
We saw the other day a large herd of
cattle on a newly-started pasture, on
wet ground. Bad management both for
the cattle and the pasture.
1t is a good deal cheaper to prevent
disease in stock than it IS to cure it,
and to prevent the attacks of insects
than it IS to remedy their depredations.
We have seen men plow right through
a spot of quicksand, miring the team,
straining it and endangering the har-
ness. 1t is foolish. Take time to go
round the worthless spot.
1t is not what our fathers did, but
what we are doing that counts. y good
many do not have the respect for our
fathers that we do, and have adopted
better methods, and we are being beaten
in tine race.-Western Plowmau.
