PARIS, December %. 1899.
II the chief purpose of travel is sight
seeing and education, there would be little
need of taking a trip around the word
after the Paris exposition. BY one IN
genious expedient and another, pretty
nearly everything mundane worth seeing
will he brought to Paris in 1900. Even the
moon will be stationed only 100 miles away
thanks to the drawing powers of the great
telescope. and possibly the north pole Will
be captured in time to form the centerpiece
of a great arctic zone exhibit One OF the
most ambitious and daring projects will be
the conveyance of the blue waters of the
Mediterranean to the Champ de Mars. The
transfer of the ripping waves that bathe
the lovely shores of the Riviera to the ex-
position city will be effected by an ingenious
device of NJ Hugo d'Alesi a painter of
much originality and great talent known
in the Mareorana.
One Hundred Miles n Minute
The Mareorama Is q spectacular pam
Drama, which differs from the ordinary
cyclorana chiefly in the fact that the spec
tators, instead Of standing on a circular
platform find themselves the deck of
genuine vessel and experience most of the
sensations of being at sea. Immense cam
vases unron slowly, steadily and noise
Iessly before their eyes, and the rise and
fall of the boat, together with the shifting
scenes, complete the illusion that one is
really on board steamer, cruising in front
of some of the well-known seaport cities OF
the Mediterranean.
You have noticed. said NJ. Hugo dAlesi

Crops: Not to Turn Under.

There are q few crops that pay well
if turned under and a good many that
it%does not pay to turn under,
Among the latter are such crops as
rape. Every once in awhile some per.
son asks the value. of this for green
manure. It: is practically nothing.
The reason is that it adds nothing tc
the; soil, for, it has built itself up en-
tirely from. the soil. Az q general
proposition we should turn under only
those plants that have gained some.
thing from the air, and those plants
are the legumes. Fortunately the
number of the legumes is large and
some of them will do well on most
any soil. If we can't grow one of the
clovers we may yet be" able to grow
cow peas or sofa beans, or even the
sand vetch. We have even seen the
ground sown to white beans and the
crop turned under when the growth
had become rank.-Farmers' Review.

Many farmers do not fully under
stand the terms sused BY those who
give directions for feeding, although
some farmers have made such matters
astudy. 4 farmer may not know the
relative proportions OF the several sub.
stances ii foods, but he should en-.
deayor to learn BY experience what to-
give his doclks, what to avoid, and how
often. The two principal substances
in food desired for poultry are nitro
gen (for flesh, albumen, etc. and car
bon (for fat) The nitrogenous foods
are meat, beans, clover, and to GER
tain extent grains. The carbonaceous
foods are corn, fat meat, grease, RICE:
etc. IS hen is fat she needs no food
exceHing in fat. Hence, finely cut clo-
yer hay scalded in the morning, with
a tablespoonful Of linseed meal at
night. Is better for egg production
than grains. II the hen Is poor, give:
grains at night. All foods, however.
contain fat and also some nitrogen.
It should be borne in mind that the
more quiet and sluggish the disposition
the less corn or heating food is re-,
quired. a laying hen should never be
very fat, for the accumulation Of fat
is very injurious to reproduction. #
too fat the hen may not lay; she be-
comes egg-bound, breaks down, and
soon proves unproductive. Any fowls
that are active foragers and are laying
may be fed all they will eat; but if the
hens are apparently in good health, but
do not lay, feed no corn, give plenty
OF meat and allow bulky food, or they
will fatten<5 quickly. II fed heavily, q
hen viii either lay or fatten in short
time, and if the hens are Asiatics and
cease to lay the feeding must be done
cautiously. It is even better to get
them down to q poor condition rather
than permit them to become too fat.
An excellent mode of feeding is to
allow plenty of bulky food, and to give
each hen an ounce of raw. chopped
meat in the morning and whole oats at
night. A few grains Of wheat or corn
may be scattered in litter, in order to
induce them to scratch, which will be
benefcials but grass may be fed free.
ly. There is no advantage in break
ing an. Asiatic from setting; but the
best way to break her is to place her on
a grass-plot in q yard and compel her
to hunt for her food. A box may be
allowed her at night, which should be
removed the next day, unless in damp
weather. The object should be to get
her to work and reduce her in flesh.
If food is scarce in the yard few
oats at night may be given. If all
breeds are kept together some of the
hens will lay, while others will not, for
the reason given above. Therefore, it
is best to keep only one breed, SO as
to give all the hens the same manage
ment.-Farm and Fireside.

Master Of the Situation.

In the days of slavery, Abram was an
especial favorite Of his master, whom.
he had served as body-servant from
his youth. At the death of his master,
his mistress accorded him the same
privileges he had. enjoyed, and at the,
time of emancipati lion he resisted every
temptation to quit the old plantation.
However, in; the exercise Of his nagis--2
terial duties, and his rights as a! priv
ileged character, he became obnoxious
to the other negroes, and NO amount of
remonstrance on the part of HIS mis-
tress seemed to avail. Finally her pa
tience became exhausted by his fire.

Agriculture In the schools.

The teaching of agriculture in the
country schools is receiving attention.
It is believed that If the children of
farmers are taught regarding some
things done on farms, and especially
where mistakes are made, they will
have a desire to learn more and will
take more interest in literature re-
lating to farming. The study Of ag-
riculture in the schools will not
greatly interfere. with other courses
and can be made more interesting it
lectures are given and practical dem.
onstrations made in botany, also
showing the textures Of soils and the
growing Of crops, etc. It is possible
that some method Of instruction may
be. devised that will induce the young
men to take more interest in farming.

The cast skins of the larvae are at
the narrow end of the scale and form

turity during the latter part of Au-

in the earlier portion of the same
month. and egg-laying continues into
September, when the entire space be-

minute, pale yellow eggs; something
over 100 in some cases. though often
much less. These eggs remain dur
ing the winter protected by the scales,
and from. them hatch the crawling
larvae in early June. Growth is slow;
there Is only one brood, and, when not
excessively abundant. the insect does
not. do much injury. AS q matter of
fact, however. it does often become
excessively abundant, and lilacs. for
instance, may become SO covered that.
no portion of the bark can be seen
