CHOICE MISCELLANY.
Brain. Of Men ard Apes

According to the examinations OF the
brains Of Europeans that have been
made by anatomists, one Of the most
important physical differences between
men and apes and monkeys has been
the absence Of the so called simian
fold in the human brain. This simlan
fold. or sulcus, which occurs on the
postertor portion OF the main hemi-
spheres, has recently been discovered
by Professor G.. Elliot Smith Of tho
Egyptian government School Of Medi-
cine in the course of an examination
Of number OF brains "| Egyptians
and Sudanese. f. Il, .vund that In
certain e1aMpi ~ brains in his COL
lection the characteristic folds found
in anthropoid apes are so closely repro
duced that he is able to trace and clear
ly establish the identity OF every sui,
Gus, or assure. Professor Smith has
also succeeded In finding human brains
where the occipital pattern corresponds
closely with the brain Of the gorilla.
AS these points of identity between
man and his nearest relations have not
previously been encountered by Euro
pean scientists in their brain studies,
their Importance can be realized, as
they do.away with one Of the supposed

To Tell the Age of Fishes,

There is new theory extant that 1t
Is possible to determine the age Of
fishes, especially those Of the cod fami-
ly, by counting the periodic growth Of
the scales.
We know that the growth of the
scales Is annual in the carp. Why
should 1t not be so in salt water fishes =?
Mr.. j. s. Thomson, an English biolo-
gist Of note. has been making some in
teresung experiments in this line to
test the age Of fishes.
The scales are first carefully exam
ined then the fishes are labeled and
returned to the sea for future observa-
ton.
In some cases study of the scales
reveals changes SO that the rings in
the scales can be distinctly traced
from year to year with certain fixed
regularity. Globe.

The Trotting Race Season.

Secretaries of grand circuit tracks
are commencing TO announce the
classes for the purse races an indica-
ton that the opening of the harness
season on the big line Is near at hand.
Some few OF the horses that will be
seen in select society later on have al

mile tracks, and these should be ready

trained ones. Il aorse can be raced
on the half mile tracks thus early In

soon as his party is seated and the
supper Is ordered he rises. thrusts both
hands in his pockets and strolls up to

SUMMER CARE OF SMALL FRUITS.
 Frank Aiken, in the American Agri- culturalist writes:
 The small fruits I grow are red and black raspberries. blackberries, cur rants, gooseberries and strawberries. The years care of all these except strawberries begins with taking out the dead wood in March. With raspberries and blackberries all the wood that fruited last summer is taken out with a sharp hook made of a large flat file and attached to handle about 8 feet long. With this tool I cut off all dead canes and pull them out between the rows as I pass along. Then a week or two later I go over the same rows ane cut back all the new wood that is to. fruit this year. My raspberries are pinched in summer, so this growth is mostly lateral and is trimmed to about 2 feet long. Plants set the year pre- vious are cut to about 1 foot.
 This leaves the dead wood and trim mings in the middles, where afterward they are pulled to ends of rows with a one-horse rake, then piled and burned This leaves the plantation ready for cultivation, which begins some time in May. I use a one-horse hoe, with a wide sweep for the back tooth.
 l cultivate every week or two until |after berries are all picked. I usually hoe once, and about midsummer or lat CT pull out tall weeds that often appear. Gooseberries and entrants are gone lover in the same way. except that usu- ally there is not much dead wood to re- move. I shorten some of the longest growth and thin old wood where too thick. The cultivation is the same as for raspberries and blackberries.
 The only insect enemy of these fruits lis the currant worm. which will eat all leaves from entrants and gooseberries If not prevented. These worms appear
