Young Porto Rican Gardeners

BY way Of encouraging the young
Porto Ricans to work, Dr. Lindsay.
the United States commissioner Of
education for the island, has planned
for every country schoolhouse TO have
an acre or two Of land for gardening.
The pupils are divided into two shifts.
and while one set is studying reading,
writing and arithmetic the other is
learning the rudiments of practical
gardening. Each school has two
teachers, one for the ordinary educa-
tional branches and the other for the
gardening.

MeIting-Point of Gold.

1t is so easy to obtain gold in a very
pure state that its melting point is a
fact of much Importance because it
serves as a constant, or basis of COMPARE
son, in the measurement of high tenn
peratures. The latest experiments for
ascentaining this point with exactitude
have been conducted in Paris by Messrs.
Jacquerod and Period, using special
type of electrical resistance furnace,
and a nitrogen thermometer of fused
quartz. The melting point was found to
be ,067.2 degrees Centigrade, or in round
numbers about ], 1853 degrees Fahrenheit.
This is about IL degrees Fahrenheit
higher than some former determine
tons, but somewhat lower than others.

Queens Who Like Plain Food.

Queen Alexandra is said to be fond o.
Yorkshire pudding, and very particular
as to It's proper consistency, that ii
should be crisp and light, not tough and
heavy. Queen Victoria loved the home
ly scone eaten at the tea taken in some
lonely farmhouse or rural inn. Plain
bakers bread, which is all one gets in
England, is poor substitute for this ap-
petizing variety Of dainty cakes.

cents. In all 1.so5.OO0 pounds changed

Fully three-fourths Of the woods grown

the winter and early in the spring, this

ton where the offers of tempting prices
failed to make serious inroads into the

Representatives of the leading wooden
manufacturers in the East and West were
present. Owing to the quantity of wool
offered the sales could not be completed
to-day and they will be continued to-
morrow, when. it is estimated. that an
