and the cellulose, with all the acids
which are neutralized In this way, be-
comes mineralized, and decay of the
timber is prevented. There is moth
ing new in this way, aSy more than
there was in the advice given to the
leper to "go wash and be Clean" But
it is quite as effective a way as any of
the more costly chemical methods of
treating timber to increase its durabil-
ity or prevent its decay. OF course, it
is necessary to immense the posts in
the pit deep enough to treat them as
far as, or something more than, the
timber will be set in the ground, and
the timber should be stripped of the
bark.

a Great RussIan Dairy show.

j. H. Monrad, writing in the New
York Produce Review, says: The DAN
ish dairy counselor, Mr.. Boggild, who
was invited as judge to the dairy show
in st. Petersburg, Russia, last month,
gives an interesting account of it in
"Maelkeritidende," from which / Gull
the following facts: The show was in
a large building 600 feet long and LA
feet wide, there were about 800 entries
OF butter, of which ZIG were for export
and were judged by foreign judges.
while the balance were judged by Rus
slams. Two enormous ice refrigerators
held the butter and cheese, but of the
latter there were only a few entries.
There are about Btu million cattle
in Russia, which is only 20 head (of
which IL are cows, for every 100 in
habitants. Compared with other coun-
tries we find in Denmark rs head CAS-
cows); in Finland, Sc head Gao cows:
in Sweden, 81 head (35 cows; in Swift
zerland 43 head (22 cows; in Holland
80 head (18 cows; in France IS head
17 cows), for every 100 inhabitants,
and in the United States, taking cen
sus of 1890, we find 81 head, of which
26 are mich COWS. Most of the COWS
in Russia are very poor indeed, the
average yearly milk yield is placed at
about 1850 pounds, or for every inhab-
liant only 1875 pounds, while in Den
mark it is about 1870 pounds. The
total value of Russia's butter export is
placed at a little over ST. 1000.
AS to the quality it varied greatly.
There was a good deal really fine but
ter, but also much poor stuff, which
showed hat the Russian taste was diff
ferent from that of western Europe.
The export butter was packed in fir
kins of beech, ash, elm and other kinds
of wood, but parchment paper was
used i'll all. About 70 per cent of this
butter was extra" or nearly SO, while
80 per cent was "tallowy," "oily" or
rancid" but nearly all had a good
body" The butter for home market
was shown in large or small boxes,
frkins and even in hollow logs Cd
twelve to fourteen inches long and ten
to twelve inches in diameter with or
without iron hoops. Yet parchment
paper was used in all.
About $50 entries were what must be
called sweet cream butter, the cream
evidently having been heated to a high
temperature and not ripened after
ward, and it was partly without salt
partly very lightly sailed. This was
chiefly intended for st. Petersburg ant
Moscow. A cooked flavor seemed to BIZ
deemed a virtue.

Rare Monkey from Java.

A wonderful monkey, n of the
nearest approaches to the missing link
in captivity, walked into the cage in
the Central Park zoo, shook hands
with his keeper in human fashion, and.
walking erect on his legs, calmly sur
veyed his new surroundings. He is the
property of o. H. P. Belmont, who
obtained him in the island of Java
last summer, and has negotiated with
the city for his carr until next spring.
The new arrival stands two feet four
inches in height, has large black eyes.
and, unlike others of his kind, has
hardened heels like the human family.
It's arms are as long as the legs and
body put together. There is 40 tail,
and a circle of gray, bushy hair all
around the face gives it a remarkable
appearance. It's face resembles that
of a human being. 1t was classed as
"Gibbon, or the long-armed monkey"
and the menagerie authorities believe
that it is the only specimen of it's race
in captivity.-New York World.

Preserving Fence Posts.

The lime treatment Is as good as
any, and the cheapest. The only eff
feet of an antiseptic for preserving
timber is to remove the acids of the
wood, and to fill the cells with an in
destructible mineral deposit, thus pre-
venting decay, says H. S. in Rural
New Yorker. After much practice
with the various timber personalities
for use in such special cases, as in
mines, and for bridges, 1 have not
learned of any material better han
common lime. 1t has been found so
effective in this way, that ships are
now in existence and seaworthy in
every way, which are over a century
old, and have been all that time carry
ing lime as their principal cargoes.
Timber has been found in ancient
buildings. perfectly sound after cen
turtles of burial in lime or cement
mortar. From some experience, / am
satisfied that the lime treatment, sim
pie and cheap as it is, is equally effec-
tive as the various other treatments by
much more expensive materials.
How to Use It.-My method has been
to saturate the timber which has been
put into bridges, cross ties on rail-
roads, and in mines for posts, in hot
lime in this way: A pit is dug large
enough to hold a convenient lot of
posts set on end, fresh quicklime is
laid in the bottom six inches deep. The
timber is laid or set on end in this pit
for fence posts, this way is most
convenient. The spaces between the
posts are filled with the small broken
lime, % being left for the lime to
swell as it slakes, and when the pit is
filled, water is thrown on to Stake the
lime into a paste, as if for mortar. The
lime, in expanding, fills in tightly be-
tween the posts, and making a great
heat drives the moisture out of the
timber, and seasons it. Water is added
as he lime slakes, until it is a semi
LIQUID mass. Then as the lime and the
heated timber cool, the created
in the timber by the previous heating
is Immediately filed by the lime water

Mice as Food in China.

The first thing that strikes the trav-
eler in China, upon his entrance into
any of the many cities of the Celestial
Empire, is the strings Of dried mice
which hang from the roofs of the
houses suspended by their tails, just
as sausages are hung in front of butch
er shops in France. The Chinese hunt
these mice with a long, sharp pointed
knife, which they plunge into the ami
mails threats. Then the mice are sus-
pended by the tails until the blood has
dripped out, when they are skinned,
drawn and smoked. Another favorite
dish with the Chinese is dogs feet.
The feet of black dogs are considered
more of a delicacy than those OF n
other color, and white dogs are reject
ed as being tasteless, Dogs fat pre-
pared in a special manner, is looked
upon as a repast fit for a king.
The Dupuyer acantha. [volume] (Dupuyer, Mont.) 1894-1904, 1900-03-22

From Farmers Review: Favorable
conditions for the growth of what is
known as the Holland bulbs have been
discovered in the western part of the
state of Washington, in San Juan
county. This county is unique in that
it consists almost entirely of islands,
some 200 in number, surrounded by
water which never reaches a lower
temperature than 43 degrees Fahren-
heit in winter, nor higher than 81. de-
grees in summer. This equable tenn
perature, together with the copious
rains of that region, make 1t possible
to achieve results in the raising Of
bulbs which long-continued expert
ments in other parts of the United
States have not been able to produce.
Mr.. George Gibbs of Orcus island,
after carefully studying the soil, CHI
mate and temperature of San Juan
county for several years, in the fall
of 1892 planted a quantity of bulbs
which he allowed to remain in their
beds until the summer of 1894, when
he found an enormous increase In all
varieties. Not only was there a phe-
nomenal increase in numbers, but the
bulbs had also attained an unusual
size, some tulip bulbs measuring seven
and one-half inches in circumference.
The blooms obtained from these bulbs
are exceptionally fine and well de-
veloped, and are ready for the market
two weeks earlier than those raised on
the mainland.
About 400 tulip and hyacinth bulbs
are now planted in Lincoln park, chi
cago, which have been sent there by
Mr.. Gibbs from Washington, and their
development is being watched with
much interest by those in charge.

Carpet Grass.

We herewith illustrate paspalum

This is apparently indigenous along
the coast. and is slowly spreading
northward, being now somewhat COM

is undoubtedly one of the best pasture
grasses for sandy soils, and it will
