VIVA Interior Of Pataron,a.

Professor J. b. Hatcher, of Prince
Ion university, has lately returned
from q remarkable trip Of exploration
In o hitherto unknown region Of South
America-namely, the wild interior of
Patagonia. He visited Washington
for the purpose Of dopositing with the
bureau of ethnology rich collection
Of objects illustrating the mode of life
of the various tribes OF aborigines in
that part of the world. Their coun-
try, too, is more than ordinarily in
teresting, being associated since tho
earliest times with rumors OF gigantic
human inhabitants and an astonish-
ing fauna. Quite recently some skele-
tons of birds that had heads as big as
those of horses have actually been
dug up. They stood at least nine
feet high, and had short wings, claws
like an eagles and beak like con-
doris. II is likely that they attacked
with success the largest mammals con-
temporary with them, being the big

A wagon going up hill requires
moro force to draw it than when it is
moved on a level. When wheel
sinks in soft soil there is On elevation
of the ground in front Of it equal to
the depth of the sinking. When o
narrow wheel sinks three or fousi
inches in the ground the effect is pre-
cisely the same rs il the wagon was
going up the samo incline when the
broad wheel is used, but IL it does not
sink in the gr. J this obstacle does
not exist. The surface of the wheel
does not interfere in the least with tho
draft of wagon even on solid, hard
ground, and it must be evident that
the broad wheel will not cut into n
road as narrow ono will, and thus
on soft roads, must be easier draft.
BY the use of n broad-tired wagon
when new road is being laid out, it
will soon be rolled hard and solid, so
that even a narrow-tired wagon will
notacut in, but attempt TO mako q
foad during the average harvesJ, Win
ter or spring season with narrow-tircd
wagons and the job will usually prove
q failure. Roy Stone.

oucssIng weIght OF stocls.

IT is surprising how many farmers
who grow live stock which they some
time expect to sell ON the hoof take so
little care to ascertain its weight.
Their ignorance in this matter often
costs them dear, MS the butcher or
other person who buys OF them gem
orally Is supplied with scales, and
can generally guess within q few
pounds what an animal will weigh.
In the writer's boyhood, his father
frequently bought cattle and sheep to
be fed while, and then butchered, to
supply his customers with beef and
mutton. It does not take long to
learn how to guess on the weight Of a
beef. Tho size alone is not always a
criterion. Old cattle, and especially
old COWS, will not weigh so heavy as
they look, and will usually have more
OF their weight in side fat, now worth
ycry little, owing to tho competition

oils Boston Cultivator.

Eggs For Early Chickens.

1t is mistaken custom OF some
farmers to sell the first laying Of eggs
IN tho spring, because they are then
higher priced, and also partly because
unless extra care is taken Of the chicks
many of them will perish from ex-
posure to cold and wet But this
policy makes the chickens come too
late to be first-rate layers next winter.
What is needed is fowls early enough
30 that they will get their winter coat
Of feathers, lay litter OF eggs and
havo time to recover from this aud get
to laying ngain before cold weather.
1t is very raro that young hens begin
laying during severe cold weather, and
especially just after they have finished
moulting. But let them be early
enough to lay one setting Of eggs, and
they will, il fed well with the proper
cgg-making food, soon begin to lay
again. In winter the hens are much
less inclined to sit than they are in
spring or summer If they do seem
inclined to sit, give them Jumps of ice
for eggs and they will give it up. Not
even this VIII stop hen in Summer,
when her determination to sit is
stronger. Late chickens do not nsu-
ally begin laying until spring is fully
come. 1t is better to trust an incu.
bator for the earliest Matching Of eggs,
for not only is the hens time more
valuable then for laying, but she cen
not be depended upon to sit steauily
until later in the season.

The Growth of city Populations.

The sudden growth OF great cities ia
the first result of the phenomenon Of
immigration which wo havo to note.
We think OF this ns essentially an
American problem. We comfort our
selves in our failures Of municipal adj
ministration with that thought. This is
grievous deception. Most OF the Eu-
ropean cities have increased in popu-
lation moro rapidly than in America
Shaw has emphasized the same fact in
his brilliant work ON Municipal Gov
ernment in Europe" This is particu-
larly true of great German urban CEN
ters. Berlin has outgrown our own
metropolis, New York, in less than q
generation, having in twenty five
years added as many actual residents
IA Chicago and twice rs many as Phil
adelphia. Hamburg has gained twice
as many in population since 1876 as
Boston. Leipsic has distanced ST..
Louis.
The same Topographic outburst has
occurred in the smaller German cities
az well. Cologne las gained the lead
burg, although in 1880 it was the
smallest of tho four Madgeburg has
grown faster than Providence in the
last ton years. Dusseldorf has like
wise outgrown st. Paul. Beyond the
confines of tho German empire, from
Norway to Italy, the same is true.
Stockholm has doubled its population
Copenhagen has increased two and
one-half times; Christiania has trebled
its numbers III a generation; Rome
has increased from 1874, 900 in 1860 TO
450. 900 in 1894; Vienna, including its
suburbs, has grown three times over
within the same period, Paris from
1881 to 1891 absorbed fouf-fifths Of the
total increase of population for all Of
France within the same period. =

Wherever it is intended TO let The

says the American Cultivator we

seeding somewhere else may make it
necessary to keep the field in grass a
year longer than is intended, The
only question is, what grass seed

far that a person can study more

the light of day. In regard to early
