The last II months have witnessed the nations
heaviest buying in Europe For the first time in
history, imports from Europe have reached aggre-
gate of 81 100, 900 900 Of this huge amount Great
Britain furnished more than onethird
This would not seem to occasion pessimism on the
part of European financial prophets. To extent
it does, however for the that while the amount
have bought in Europe has been greater than
before, the European percentage of total world
trade has gone, not up, but down. The S110000C 900
represents but 426 per cent of total imports from
the world at large and while the amount is the largest
in history, the percentage is the lowest.
The great war did not wreck civilization, how
closely it may have to it, but it did bring
a readjustment of world power and world commerce
which will prove more and more important and appar-

known to produce four times her weight in milk in the
of year, and it is record in which all cattle
may we'll take satisfaction. The Department of Agri-
culture has pronounced the good the greatest
wealth producer the farm
But the state of Washington is boasting of
White Leghorn hen which laid less than 335 eggs
within 365 days. The must look to her laurels
The had vacation in the twelve months
period The hen took month off, day at time but
the fact renders her performance no less credtable
Certainly she deserved the occasional respite, If only
that she might throat wearied by characteristic
boasting of her accomplishments
Three hundred and thirty-five eggs year means
more than $3.50 at the average price to the producer
reported by the Washington poutrymens association
Under the circumstances, it is hard to blame any hen
for cackling, conceited though it may seem.
The dairy and the corn-fed hog are all right,
and deserving of praise and consideration friends

gauge. A rain gauge consists of
small metal cylinder, the lid of which
is in the form of funnel with a
specified diameter Inside the cylin-
der is a glass vessel for collecting
the rain. The rim of the funnel is
usually composed of brass, while the
rest of the contrivance is of copper
or japanned metal, which serves as
a protection against rust.
Various types of rain gauges are in
use at the present time. Some have
diameter of eight inches, and con-
tain a metal bucket, from which the
rain is measured; others are three
inches smaller. and contain a glass
vessel graduated in half-inches. from
which the water is poured into an
other more finely graduated bottle.
In one invention the rain from an
ordinary receiver passes to a cylinder
fitted with a float. To the float is
attached a lever, which raises and
lowers a sliding pen. The latter
works on a revolving drum similar
to those used on the Paragraph, the
instrument often seen in windows of
opticians shops. When one inch of
rain has been collected the cylinder
empties itself, and readings begin
again a zero

Newspapers for Walls.

THE Chinese, it is thought are the
greatest of all consumers of old
newspaper. The official returns of the
customhouse at Newchwang show
that that port alone, during the year
for which figures are last available,
received approximately 1900 tons of
old European newspapers valued at
$4,000.
1t is not at first easy to imagine to
what use so much obsolete news can
be put. 1t is, however. ascertained
that the middle class Chinese prefer
newspaper to native wall paper as a
covering for their walls. 1t has a
greater power of resistance and af-
invasions of the vermin that fnfest
Chinese houses, often driving out the
inmates.
Moreover, the Chinese are experts
at cutting out of newspapers waist
coats which they wear next to the
skin. These paper waistcoats are said
to be the best possible protection
against sudden "cold snap" In view
of these admirable uses to which Eu-
ropean newspapers may be- put, it is
not surprising to learn that the i'm
ports constantly show increase in
weight.
It should be added, however, that
the value of the import has declined.
This fact is explained by the rapid de-
velopment of the native newspaper
press that has occurred during tlse
last few years.

THE colors of vegetation vary in
= intensity in a direct ratio 60 the
amount of sunlight combined with
GOODNESS of temperature, within GER
tain limits. Exawples are the intense
redness of apples grown in northern
climates and the deep colors of Alpine
vegetation. But the soil, as well as
other influences, has an effect upon
plant colors
Experiments have been made with
reference to the question of artificial
control of the colors of plants through
the introduction of chemicals into the
soil in which they grow. In very
small quantities such chemicals are
absorbed without apparent injury, but
the effect upon the coIors is slight.
Yellow roses appear to become deeper
in hue under the influence of alu-,
minum sulphate and potassium sui
phate. With the use of these same
chemicals the petals of the white car
nation show tendency to develop red
streaks, while. when fed with am
monium sulphate, aluminium sulphate,
iron citrate and citric acid, scarlet
carnations tend to form white streaks.
