Weather and Crop Conditions.

Central Office, State Experiment. Sta
tion, New Brunswick, N. j.,
June 18th, 1909.
The weather conditions that pre-
vailed during the week ending Mon
day, June 10Th, 1902, were more favor
able, the days and nights being decid,
eddy warmer. The warmest days were
the 18th and 18th, when the maxima
temperatures ranged from 90 to 90
degrees. Copious showers fell on
the llth. 18th and 14th, and effectual-
" broke the long drought that had
prevailed for several weeks. Except
in limited area in the extreme north
and southwest portions, the showers
were sufficient for present crop needs,
but too late for meadows. The har-
vesting of very light crop of hay
and clover is progressing in many
places the yield will not exceed half
of that of last year. Wheat, rye and
oats are not at all promising. Fruit
is dropping badly in some orchards
while in others the outlook continues
promising. 1t is safe to say that the
apple crop will DE much below the
average.

Japanese LACQUER.

A piece of genuine japanese lacquer
costs the native artist almost a life
time to perfect and is produced by
hundreds of thin coats of lacquer laid
on at considerable intervals of time,
the value consisting rather in the la.
Dor bestowed than in the quality of
the material used First class lac

Russian Kettle Bridges.

Perhaps the most remarkable
bridges in the world are the kettle
bridges, of which the Cossack soldiers
are expert builders. The materials
of which they are constructed are the
soldiers Iances and cooking kettles.
Seven eight lances are passed
der the handles of number of kettles
and fastened by means of ropes to
form a raft. A sufficient number of
these RATS, each of which will bear
a weight of half ton, are fastened
together, and in the space OF an hour
a bridge is formed on which an army
may cross with confidence and safety.

wIng1ess Birds.

The kiwi is the sole remnant of
the wonderful race of wingless birds
that once roamed all over New Zea-
land, the gigantic skeletons of some
of which have been found in such
numbers that almost every museum in
the world possesses one or more of
them.
The kiwi is about the size of a
partridge, has a rather long neck and
a curious bill about four inches in
length. Its wings are quite undevel-
oped, and its feathers have sort of
unfinished character, which may be
supposed to represent Natures early
efforts in that direction, before the
close, rich plumage of the modern
bird was evolved
Wanting the means of flight. the
kiwi has almost been exterminated
and with it also have gone, or nearly
gone, all the other teathered denizens
of the woods The invasion of heir
haunts by the white man has been
their destruction.

GIVES wASNING BEFORE THE EXIT OSIoN.
5osity. Antonio De1grande of Peters
burg, Va, has designed the frecracker
shown in the drawing with the inten-
ton of eliminating the danger of ac-
cident from this cause. To accom-
plish this result the cracker is made
with preliminary alarm arrangement
which, while not sufficient to fn5ure
the face OF hands, expIodes with
enough force to brighten the child and
cause it to jump back in time to es-
cape the effect of the main explosion.
AS will be seen by a glance at the
picture the fuse is similar to that
hitherto employed for discharging the
cracker, but instead of passing direct
ly through the packing wad into the
main charge of the explosive it enters
a primary division of the tube, con
tanning a small charge of powder or
illuminating compound. After pass
ing through this compartment the
fuse extends to the main EXPLOSIVE
charge.
In one form of the safety crackA
the preliminary signal takes the form
of red, blue green fire, this being
especially designed for night use,
when the color of the preliminary dis
play adds not little to the amuse-
ment of the child.

To snake hands with a person is
rightly regarded as a token of amity
but very few know how this custom
arose.
According to French ethnoIogist
whenever two men met in fOrmer
times they were accustomed to hold
up their right hands in front of them
as a sign mat they had no intention OF
attacking each other. This mark of
confidence, however, did not prove
sufficient in all cases, for a man may
hold up his right hand and yet, if he
keeps it closed, may have a weapon
concealed in it, and, therefore, it b :
came the custom for the two righc
hands to grasp each other, only
thus could full assurance be given that
no weapon was concealed in either OF
them
Formerly, therefore, this gesture
now the token of loyalty and friend
ship, was one of reciprocal distrust

Winter Birds In sprtnet,m..

1t will be found intensely Interesting
to study the nature of the winter buds
or various trees as they prepare to
unfold in the spring They should be
taken under observation just before
they actually open, when they are be-
ing excited by the warmth of the sea-
son, says Meehans Monthly. Most
large, scaly buds will reveal their com
plete history for the coming season as
relates the growth. They will be
found to contain miniatures of leaves
and Stems-in some cases the flowers
too The scales of 1eaf-coverings also
have interest for the observer in their
varying forms. The horse chestnut
has a coating of a sticky substance as

large cork in the form of a ball an
inch in diameter. Take a human hair
and form a loop in it about one and
half inches long, afhxing the ends to
the ball with little wax or, better
still, by forcing the ends into the cork.
Now pass the foref1nger of your right
hand through the hair loop, letting the
ball lie on the palm when you show it,
Place your lett hand over the righc
and at the same time separate the
forehnger from the second of your
right Quickly push the ball with the
thumb of the right hand between the
open fingers The ball falls at the
back of the hand, which you keep in
such position that the company can
aot see the ball hanging behind. Re-
move the left hand closed as if it
contained the ball. Then open the
hand and show it empty. With a lit
tie dexterity you may with a quick
jerk throw the ball over your hand
from the back into the palm and show
that 1T has returned. For this you
must make a movement as if catching
it in the air Now break off the hair
and give the ball to the company for

Electric Watch.

An invention which is likely to revo-
1utionize the matchmaking industry
has been perfected by a Swiss watch
maker named David Perret of Marin,
near Neuchate1. 1t is a watch which
goes by electricity, and it's special fea-
ture is it's accuracy. 1t was severely
tested by experts, and it was found
that is gained only seven-tenths of
second in five weeks. The expert at
the observatory at Neuchatel declares
the watch to be equal in precision to
an expensive chronometer. The watch
resembles an ordinary gentleman's
lever costing $780, and goes for fifteen
years without being rewound.

more especially to devices by which
bottled, distilled or filtered waters
may be cooled before being drawn for

Lamps That Talk.

Electric lamps not only can be
made to talk but also to sing. An
ordinary arc light can be made to pro-
duce sounds in two ways. One is by
placing the arc in the circuit of tele-
phone instead of the ordinary receiv-
err and the other is by placing it in the
circuit instead of the ordinary trans
mitter.
In either of these positions it will
pronounce words, which can be heard
distinctly at a considerable distance.
1t naturally follows, also, that the
electric arc can be utilized as the re-
ceiver and also the transmitter of
a telephone.

How Acorns Work.

1t is as good as a tonic to see the
acorns now. After a winter spent III
luxurious ease, they are learning what
it is to earn their board and lodging.
They have thrown off their caps and,
with red faces and jackets split up
every seam, are intently engaged in
putting down taproots into the mellow
earth, digging away for dear life. AS
a result of this fit of industry the
woods will by and by be full of tiny
oak trees-mOst of them, sad to re-
late, destined to be eaten up by grubs
and fungi and such small deer An
oak just out of the cradle is a jaunt7
little fellow, with a fat, juicy stalk
and the two chunky halves of the
acorn, probably still in the shell
clinging to it like a lunch in a bag
for it is on the stock of starch stored
in the meal of the nut tn at the plantIet

enough to make a living for itself.

Chicken farming as practiced nova
days implies the use of implements
and foods which would have seemed
strange to past generation When
a chicken has been fed up to such
point that it begins to refuse its food
the fattener uses a t.cramming pump
and forces oatmeal and milk down the
throat of the unwilling bird. This can
go on for only few days, for after
once being crammed in this fashion a
bird will never eat again of its own
accord To give final touch of
perfection to the pump capon, a
preparation of arsenic is added to the
food during the last few days before
it is to be killed This makes the bird
plump and glossy, and adds still z
few ounces to its portIy frame. The
curious part about this poison treat
ment is that it does not seem to in
jure the birds in any way for market
nor to make them unwhoIesome-
