GRocERs' Notice.

In accordance with our desire to give
our customers the best possible service
at the lowest prices, we have decided
to discontinue the practice of allowing
discount of per cent on retail
monthly bills, and therefore give no.
tice that on and after the 1st of No
venber, 1904, no discount whatsoever
viii be allowed on any groceries sold
in our stores. All groceries Will be
sold at net prices, on basis of spot
cash or thirty days settlement, and
there will be no exception made to this
rule. Purchases made in our retail
departments up to the 1st of Novem-
Der will. of course, be subject to the
per cent discount as heretofore.
The discount question has frequently
been the cause of disputes and dissatis-
faction and we believe this arrange
ment will improve our relations with
our patrons, while it will at the same
time enable us to more adequately meet
the keen competition prevailing in our
line of business, and to give our GUS
toners the benefit of the closest prices.

aGREEN SICKNESS !"

The unhealthy complexion
of green sickness is changed
to the rosy blush Of good
health by SCOTS Emulsion.
Green sickness is one of
the forms of blood disease
found in young women. The
change from girlhood to wo-
manhood often upsets the
nervous system, weakens di-
gestion and throws the blood
making organs out of gear.
SCOTS Emulsion puts new
heart into pale girls. t tones
up the nervous and digestive
system, and feeds the blood.
It. is a natural tonic.

The Submarine Boat In War.

The JaDaIese-Eussian war has moi
vet brought the submarine boat to a
practical test. but it has been suttic'
iertly we'll developed and proved to
make it certain it will, at some time,
play an important part in naval war
fare. It is the next great instrument
Of destruction to be used, especially
since the torpedo has, in Japanese
hands, proved so effective.
The submarine torpedo boat is an
enlarged Whitehead torpedo, with hui
man intelligence instead Of automatic
machinery to guide it, and with a
launching tube instead OF the charge
Of guncotton in its rose. Notable is
the French type, that sinks by filing
tanks, which is slow operation, Thcn
there is the Lake (American) submar'
inc, that hauls itself under by inclined
hydroplanes, and the Holland type, re-
Gently acquired by the United States
GoYernmen emf, that dives while under
motion, and is really what the others
are not-a mechanical ish.-MorGal

HORSEPOWER versus nIan-Povcr.

Easterly from Bath, Me, among the
coast islands, runs 4 crooked and in
tricate channel, through which ply
small steamers carrying freight and
passengers as far as Doothbay Harbor.
There are many bays and narrows
along the way, and the confused tides
beget unruly currents which have giT-
,en the channel the name o. Hell Gate
Passage"
A ..resorter' living near the Booth
bay end Of the route received word
last summer that some friends would
be down on the Sunday boat from Bos-
ton, reaching Bath in the evening. Un.
fortunately, there was no small steam
er connecting with it, and no way for
them to come over till Monday. Not
wishing to leave them to the tender
mercies of hotel, the resorter applied
to a neighboring native for aid.
Captain Hiram," he said, "can get
you to go over to Bath, Sunday even
ing, with your launch to meet some
friends and bring them over"
Captain Hiram reflected. he want
ed to oblige, but he hated to go.
"Well, now, Mr.. Barton" he saiG at
last. 'I tell you how it is. You come
to git over there to upper Hurl Get,
and they's some considerable of tide

Effect of Grooming.

The skin of the horse, like that of
other animals, is an active excretory
organ. Supplied with almost an indefi-
mite number Of pores, through these, if
kept open, a continual discharge Of
watery flnid, and such other waste
matter as is carried there by the blood,
occurs. 1t also contains myriads Of
minute glands, secreting an oily fluid
that is essential for rendering the skin
soft and flexible, rs we'll as furnishing
nourishment needed by the hair and
keeping it soft and glossy.
1t will not do, therefore, for these
pores to get .clogged, for in that case
the skin would soon become dry, rough,
hard and diseased; nor is there much
danger of it except when the horse is
hard at work Then the secretion Of
watery fluid is hearier than. when the
animal is idle. and if the sweat is al
lowed to dry on the skin, dust will ac-
cumulate, mixing with it. and. if not
cleaned off, fill and clog the pores. AS
a result the skin will not only become
diseased, but the whole system more or
less deransed. The impurities. unable
to escape through the skin, will accu-
mulate in different places and give rise
to blisters, which, if neglected. may
lead to blood poisoning Or something
else nearly as bad. By regular, thor
ough grooming. however, all this will
be prevented. the pores kept open. and
healthier, thriftier condition Of the
animal maintained.
A horse having thick, tough skin
will endure a tolerably sharp curry
comb, which, used on another with a
thin. tender skin, would be a positive
cruelty. Whatever accumulations Of
dirt may be on the hair after the use
Of the curry comb thorough cleaning
out Of the skin should follow By the
aid of a good brush. - Massachusetts,

Forcing Rhubarb.

Usually only crowns from three to :
fiye years old are used for forcing. In
the present experiment seedlings, OBJ
tanned by sowing seeds in April in drills
twenty inches apart, were used.
The seedlings made remarkably good
growth during the summer. many
leaves attaining foot across, with
stalks fifteen to twenty inches long and
IN inch thick. e II II ~ Us
After the ground had been frozen and
thawed out once in the fall, the roots
were plowed out and placed in dark
cellar. They were packed closely to-
gether, with the crowns up and sod
sifted between until the roots were
covered two or three inches deep. TneY
were then thoroughly soaked with
water and the room made perfectly
dark. The stalks pushed rapidly into
growth and within four weeks an ex-
cellent growth of rhubarb was secured.
These Seeding roots furnished two
pullings Of first-class stalks, two more
Of fair. stalks, and two or three more
small pullings of rather small and
spindly stalks.
In all the one crop lasted about four
weeks. The exhausted roots were then
removed and the new supply grown IN
like manner. It is stated that in this
work the temperature should never be-
allowed to be above sixty degrees Fab.
renheit, unless quick results are
wanted at the expense Of quality and
quantity. The crop grown in this ex-
pertinent sold for from sixty to seventy
five cents per dozen punches, and there
we're from four to six stalks In each
bunch. From an area of $40 square
feet of cellar space, rhubarb to the
amount of $3.50 was sold. and it Is be-
leyed that the yield obtained in this
experiment can be materially increased
wien more attention is given to the
growing Of the seedlings.
Special Eention is made of the deSir-
ability of growing the roots in absolute
darkness, since by this method the
strength of the root is directed into the
stem of the rhubarb rather than int
the production of foliage. By planting
the seed on heavily manured loam sol:
and thinning the plants to distance
of one foot in the rows, with proper
cultivation and mulching, If need be,
we believe roots can be grown in sim
Gle season which. will give twice the
yield received from our experiment. Il
it can be done with certainty from year
to year the question of obtaining
crowns for forcing purposes viii be
| solved.-V. H. Davis, in American Cul.

The Art OF Lens Making.
Test by Which reE Accuracy Assured Manufacturing Mirrors
For he Smithsonian Institution and the Naval Observatory
-s.Sow Processes by Which Perfect Magndier
IS Eyolves=.A Costly Rock Salt Prism.

taineu from I certain miIe i'll Russia
The reason FOR employing rock salt
p IN transmitting the rays Of the sun is
the non absorption ct heat by that sub
stance, while, on the other hand, its
absorption OF moisture rendered its
surface liable to be destroyed by
change in temperature or contact with
the least dampness. These prisms are
made in room Of the astrophysical
observatory, the temperature Of which
was specially regulated for the pur-
pose by means Of the te:ting and cool
ing plants which form not the least
extraordinary features Of that remark
able esta tabliShment wherein the hidden
secrets of the lunlinary are sought to
be revealed. The caution required in
sealing these prisms without injuring
their surfaces in handling was some
thing very great indeed, and it was
only by the most persistent and pains
taking practice tha:: this was satistac-
torily accomplished. Nevertheless. so
accurate are these prisms to-day, and
so faithfully have the performed
their work, that they are source Of
much pride and qualification to Prof.
Langley, who has declared Of one Of
them that he would not sell it Tor
thousand dollars.
Mr.. Kahlera. explained that getting a
good piece Of glass for the making of
large mirrors and lenses is not the
least difficult step i'll turning out sat
isfactory work. Glass used for this
purpose is imported principally from
Germany and Bohemia. It must be Of
equal density throughout. and great
difficulties attend its manufacture; for
instance, it must be allowed to cool
very gradually, for months, in fact, af-
ter being taken out of the furnace.
1t is striking fact that in Mr.. kah-
ler's line Of work the crudest appli-
ances are used. Very ingenious ma
chinery is employed for turning out
the cheaper class Of lenses and mir
rors by the hundreds at time; yet
the fine surfaces can only be produced
by the most tedious hand work."

Board Partitions.

When the poultry house is divided
into two or more apartments the parti-
ton should be of boards instead Of wire
or laths, As the warmth Of the bodies
of the fowls vii! induce cold currents
of air to flow from one end Of the
house to the other. II anyone doubts
this let him enter u long poultry house
on a cold day, where the partitions are
Of wire and he will be convinced. IN a
continuous Qong) poultry house each
apartment should be boarded up the
same rs If 4 separate building.

Nitrogen.

Some years ago popular :illustra ted
magazine published some highly imag-
NATIVE articles describing how every,
thing would burn up when the farmers.
through the cultivation of iegumes, had
drawn all the nitrogen from the air..
e. G.. S., in Hoard's Dairyman. says
''It's going to be many, years before.
what is known now will diffuse through
the mass Of ignorance that prevails.
and consequently twill be long time
before there will be less nitrogen In
the air because it has been stored up In
the soil for mans benefit and longer
still before We shall haFeSrepIaced the
stores that nature had 3accumuiated
through long centuries" The fact Is.
that all the speculations on this subs
ject leave out Of view the fact that no.
matter how much nitrogen we maE
capture from the air we cannot keepit.
for it is ever returning thither, and the
supply in the air can never grow less,
Every chimney i'll thesland is sending
it back to the air. every neglected ma
nure pile is doing the same thins. and
the old rule in nature that everything
must be used over and over again VIII
prevent any Gilninution in TIE supply.
We may get nitrogen In various combs
nations. but ere long 1t becomes free

ture in the shape of nitrate Of soda.
may be used UP, and the nitrogen, that
We get as by-product in the manu-
facture of gas from coal may become:
totally inadequate for the purpose Oh
making fertilizers, but 50 long as the:
legumes are intelligently cultivated
and used in a proper rotation, there
will always be nitrogen enough for;
great crops, and the supply in the air.
will be kept good by its feeting nature.
We may locate it in crops, but the con-
sumption Of the crops sends it back to:
the air, and the bacteria work over the
offal Of all sorts, releasing it as nitrate
to be washed away if not used BIZ
plants. And if it is washed into the.
sea we can get back a large part OFT
in the refuse from fish Oil factories, 50
that the everlasting round will be kept;

Scratching Shed For Poultry.

Many poultry keepers have decided
that to make the hens lay we'll in cod
weather they must provide for them i
shed attached to the henlouse where
they can have during the day place
to exercise by scratching in the earth
after they have eaten their food. and at
the same time get the pure air Of out
Of doors, without being exposed to
snow, rain or even cold winds. For
this purpose they build scratching
shed" attachment to their poultry
houses, as large. or perhaps larger,
than the house in which they stay
nights, and in this they feed them and
allow them to spend most of their time
when the weather allows. While we
are not yet satisfied that shed has aG-
vantages superior to house that is en-
closed upon all sides, and therefore,
comfortably warm all day and every
day, but which can yet be we'll venti!-
ated and admit the sunlight, we pre-
sent it to Our readers as very we'll
planned attachment, which can be
built upon the south side Of almost any
hennery, covering but n part Of the
yard, and yet probably a pleasant
scratching place for the poultry in win
ter. In a shed Of this kind they can
have more room, more liberty and
purer air than in tie ordinary hennery,
and the only question in our mind is
whether its cost could not be better
expended in building more houses and
keeping a less number Of fowl in each

Wonders of Botany.

The wonders of botany are appar'
emily inexhaustible. One OF the mos
remarkable specimens IS the Mexican
maguey tree, which furnishes needle
and thread ready fer use. At the .tir
of each dark green leaf IS slender
thorn needle that must be carefully
drawn from its sheath. At the SAINT
time it slowly unwinds the thread q
strong, smooth fiber attached to the
needle and capable of being dfa"r
out to a great length.
