Pretty Society Belle Studying Bugs

But when, after taking a baccalaureate
degree, she wished to go on studying,
her family rebelled. 1t was then that
DR.. c. w. Richardson, her brother, had
the happy inspiration of taking her to
the musty old Smithsonian institution,
where his influence procured her the
right to work as a volunteer.
He thought one visit would be the
end So he took her up the narrow
stairs to the smelly balcony, where col
lections of fossils were being mounted.
Miss Richardson calmly sat down be-
fore a compound microscope and an.
nounced that she liked it.
That's where l found her, in Pa
risian linen suit, fondling little bottles
of preserved isopods as daintily as if
they were thimble teacups.
Every morning from ten till one
Miss Richardson is at her desk. There
she has written her book, "a Mono
graph on the Isopods Of North Amer
ica," dealing with specimens furnished
by the Hartman expedition to Alaska,
and Is shorter works, two of which
she has just prepared for Paris scien-
tific paper.
But even when abroad, absent from
the allurement of the institution, the
scientific side of Miss Richardson s
mind asserts itself. She leaves the
gay watering places and season en-
tertainments to go and visit DR..
Thomas Scott of Aberdeen or DR.. A.
M. Norman, just out of London, both
famous scientists. This summer she
is invited to visit Prof Giard, director
of the laboratory at Wimereux, France.

stone. The glass tube has sufficient
length so that when the drop reaches
the bottom of the tube the air pressure
has become great enough, combined
with the capillary attraction of the
tube, to sustain the drop in the tube,
thereby preventing any escaping of
the fumes.

Nut Culture Investment.

AS an investment, nut culture seems
to be exempt to great extent from
some of the ills attending ordinary
Industrial stocks. The production Of
nuts never exceeds the demand; the
business does not have the fixed
charges for insurance, wear and tear
of machinery, strikes or lockouts so
common in other lines. Besides, thus
far the only fluctuation in value OF
nut properties has been upward, as
orchards increase steadily in value for
about 25 years.-Southern Farm.

Killing RattIers in Pennsylvania.
George Burhen, who is building a
new house for himself on a part Of
his fathers farm on German Hill,

day that had been left in the shade
when he luckily espied huge rattler

Perhaps there is no better annual
crop than rape for hog pasture, says
the Fort Worth Reported. Rape may
be grown almost as early in the
spring as any other crop. The seed
is hardy and will sprout early and
the plants are not injured by frost,
but during the early cool part of the
season rape will not make much of
growth. Perhaps for earliest pasture
it may be better to seed combina-
ton of barley and oats, or barley
and emmer, sowing about a bushel or
barley per acre.
