His Muscles Obey Him.

Medical circles in Vienna are being
edited by some remarkable examples
of muscular action which man aged
about 80 years is showing. His power
over his muscles is so great that he can
perform feats that would usually be
deemed incredible. He can contract
his abdominal muscles so as to show an
undulating movement massing upward
and downward; his larynx goes up and
down without the aid of the tongue;
and he can even cause his pupils either
to contract or dilate thus showing the
influence of will over so-called invol-
untary actions.
BY contracting the diaphragm he is
able to displace his heart by four
inches. One of his marvellous feats,
narrated by Lancet correspondent, is
the "transposition of the intestines
into the space occupied usually by the
lungs

Many of the choicest OF water
lilies. even the magnificent Victoria
regia, may be grown from seed. For
many years the seed Of this lily when
brought to this country failed to
germinate, says Homes and Gardens.
1t was finally found that by bot
tling the seeds in the water Of the
river in which they grew they could
be transported safely from the wa
ters of the Amazon to the Far West.
Here the lily is usually grown with
bottom heat, as 1t is very tender.
Seeds started in pots in a tempera-
ture of ninety degrees will germi-
nate In about two weeks and may be
planted out In the open air when the
nights have become warm-usually
about the first OF June, and Will
bloom the same summer, but cannot
be carried through the winter but
must be started afresh each season
either by the purchase of plants
or the sowing of seed, the latter be-
Ing, of course. much more economi-
cal as seeds may be purchased for
few nickels apiece, the plants costing
as many dollars.

In Mountain Climbing.

The highest point at which climbers
have stayed for any length of time Is
20,992 feet, on the Himalayas. where an
exploring party painfully stayed for six
weeks in 1902. Higher still, at 2l,slo
feet, Is the extreme point OF Mrs. Bull
lock Workman's ascents, the greatest
height reached by a woman. Mr.. Bull
lock Workman kept On to point 23,-
1893 feet high, which is the greatest
height reached by any mountain climb
err. The attitudes reached by Mr.. and
Mrs. Bullock Workman were above
those at which M. Berson, the aero
naut, began his artificial inhalation OF
oxygen. At 26,240 feet the aeronauts
in general begin the continued inspira-
ton of oxygen. and neglect OF this pre-
caution was responsible for the death
of NM. Croce. Spinelli and Sirel at 2S,-
208 feet, and their companion. Tissan-
der, just escaping by miracle.
Mount Everest, the highest point OF
the globe, is only some TOO feet higher,

Feeding Ensilage TO Dairy Cows.

A practical and successful dairy
man gives his plan of feeding his
COWS through the Jersey Bulletin,
and among other things he says:
We make ensilage our main food.
1t is unnecessary to enlarge upon the
value of ensilage, for every dairy
man in the corn belt certainly knows
the value of this great feed. We feed
from 80 to so pounds of ensilage per
day in proportion to the COW. It Is
our intention for our cows to have
all they want. and In the best condi-
tion. In the winter the ensilage is
not removed from the silo until feed
Ing time and is fed steaming hot.
The ensilage ration Is balanced
With bran and clover hay. The bran
Is fed in proportion to the period Of
lactation of the COW, and as much as
she will consume at profit. We
feed our ensilage and bran the first
thing in the morning; then do our
milking and separating; then feed as
much clover hay as the cows will
clean up before noon. The same
method is followed in the evening.
feeding hay the last thing at night.
We do not depend on grass alone
more than go to 75 days in the year.
from about May 10 to July Is or 20.
Then II we have any ensilage left
over from winter we feed about 20
to % pounds per day. II we have no
ensilage we plant . small plot of
sweet corn early in the spring and
begin feeding as soon as It will do,
cutting from the field and hauling
to the pasture each day. This is
more expensive way OF feeding than
the ensilage, but 1t is far better than
to let the cows go hungry; for
hungry COW won't give milk. Our
cows must have all they want to eat
365 days each year.

VOLCANOES IN MARYLAND.
Prove to Be the Oldest Rock Forma'
ton in the United States.


Prof Philip X. Uhler gives an ae-
count of discovery which he made In
the western Maryland mountains, says
the Baltimore American. Three peaks.
the principal one named Buzzaro b
Knob, crown a plateau about six miles
from the city. 1t was for Prof. uhler
to discover that the three prominences
are in fact volcanoes, and that they
are the very Oldest type OF volcanic
rock that is found in the United States.
These peaks are of a different form
from volcanoes like Vesuvius. In the
latter form of volcano molten lava ana
stones are forced up by superheated
steam, leaving deep hole. but IN
these craters in western Maryland the
whole mountain was originally in
molten condition and the top crust was
forced upward in dome-shaped form,
and such lava as did escape was forced
out in vents at various places. The
volcanic rock Of the region is metal
bearing, and speciments Of gray, green
and gold copper were found by DR..
Uhler. The domes Of the craters were
somewhat elliptical in shape.

There there is daily exhibition of the
Jottrand process for cutting metals by
a Jet of oxygen. The apparatus con-
sists essentially in blow pipes, moved
along a guide in front of the metal
plates or part to be cut at the rate Of
about six inches per minute.
One of the blow pipes delivers an
oxyhydrogen flame, which raises the
metal where it is to be cut to a tenn
