FARMING ONES OWN LIVING.

Wendell Phillips is reported to have
said that there is no education so val
liable as that which is attained by
earning ones own living There is a
sense in which this is true, although
it is a truth which is rapidly becom-
ing an anachronism. 1t is much bet
ter to be Industrious and persevering
than to be an idle vagrant; it is better
to be an honest worker than to be a
sybarite or a voluptuary; it is better
to fill days with labor than with mere
Indulgence, bat the new civilization
into which we are already entering
offers possibilities beyond these alter
natives.
The first requisite toward compre-
hending the higher possibilities Of re-
lief from earning a living is to dis
tinguish between leisure and idle
ness. The former is fine and indef-
nitely desirable; the latter is more or
less deteriorating in its influence
Again, it must be realized that it is
a higher thing to live than merely to
get living. Almost any one can get
living, such as it is; comparatively
few know how to live
There Is one means by which earn
ing a living is in the line of educative
forces to the individual. It is when
the earning" comes, incidentally, sc
to speak, as the natural result Of the
work one loves to do; the work that
is a joy in itself; that is expression

DUST FROM THE CLOUDS

Baron Nordenskjold, upon finding
on the SHOWS of Greenland dust COM
posed of the elements invariably asso-
ciated with meteorites, and of uncom-
mon occurrence in terrestrial matter,
concluded that cosmic dust is falling
imperceptibly but continually upon the
earth. Recent spectroscopic examination
of many varieties of dust collected in
England and elsewhere has an inter
esting bearing on Nordenskjold's con-
illusions. Among the constituents Of
dust floating in the air are lead, silver,
copper, rubidium, gallium, indium,
thallium, nickel, manganese and so
forth. Many. of these can be traced
to their sources in factory chimneys
and fues. Volcanic dust has char
acteristic features, and dust from
clouds, collected either by itself or in
hail, snow, sleet or rain, exhibits a
regularity Of composition not seen in
other varieties of dust. Iron, nickel,
calcium, copper, potassium, and sodium
always appear in it in about the same
proportions. Some dust that fell near
Dublin in 1897 resembles meteorites in
its composition, is attracted by a mag
net and seems to be of cosmic origin.

ranked among the giants of starry

Of Zeta Geminorum among the visi-

enormous distance. If removed equally

It is estimated that the value OF
eggs annually put in cold storage in
the United States is in excess of 500
600, 600. The amount is of course in
creasing from year to year. The men
that have gone into the business on
large scale have not all, by any means,
made success of it. Some of the large
companies built costly plants for re-
frigeration, and before they could reap
enough harVests to render the work
profitable, failed. A good many mis-
takes were made. Some put in Ger
tain systems. but finally had to change
them at great expense. One of the
reasons for failure has been the neces-
sity of running a large plant while
doing a small business. Everyone that
has looked through a cold storage
plant knows something of the ex-
pense that must be caused by its run
ming. The ammonia machines are
not run except at considerable ex-
pense, and labor too is considerable
item. It is therefore necessary that
the business done be large. The profits
on small business will not pay ex-
penses on large investment.
The lack of fertility of eggs is fire.
quently laid to the activity or mac
tivity of the males. Doubtless, it is
frequently due to the females. From
analogy, drawing the lesson from
other animals, the feed has a great
deal to do with the question Of fertil-
ity. Science has not yet found out
just how the elements in food, the
potash, the phosphorus and the nj
trogen affect the life-germs, but we
know they do affect them With the
present amount of light shining on
the subject we would perhaps attach
more Importance to the presence and
distribution of phosphorus than Of
any other element. 1t is as yet a sub
ject shrouded in darkness. There is
a difference, too, in the manner in
which one hen disposes of her feed
compared with another. Two hens
may eat food containing the same
amount of say phosphorus. One may
distribute it throughout her system.
| The other may pass most of it with the
droppings. We know that of two hens
similarly fed and treated, one will
produce fertile and the other infer
| tile eggs, the latter through no fault
Of the cock. This quality of produc-
ing non-fertile eggs is one that is
| transmitted, and can probably be
! largely eliminated by careful selec-
| ton. The process would, however, be
a long one, and is not likely to be
taken up by any person, except one
| having a considerable capital; as ii
| would mean the seQuestering Of each

| perhaps a change of food will remove
| the sterility. We know that when 6

average depth of about 30 feet. The

part Of the lake, has a mean depth of
from GO to 70 feet. The lower portion
varies from 60 to 24O feet. These
measurements were taken a number OF

Niagara being damned at its source,
but few have ever dreamed that the
vast expanse Of water which furnishes
1T Its current would ever perceptibly
shrink.
That is the startling report. however,
that the chief engineer of tie Marine
Department of Canada has made. He
has returned to Ottawa from a tour of
inspection of the upper lakes, and
states that Lake Erie is lower than
was ever known to be the case before.
This condition is due, he thinks. to a
series Of dry seasons, to the drain made
by the power of development works at
Niagara Falls and to the fact that
dredging the T6nawanda canal has
made it easier for water to escape from
the lake. He considers it imperative
that the United States government
adopt remedial measures at nm early
date, else navigation upon it's present
basis will be seriously interfered with.
