The success of irrigation on the far
Western plains and in the foothills tends
to makethe “lit“ with the hoe encroach
more confidently and runsistently upon
those lands that are said to be lit only
for stock grueling.
The prize offered by the . French
Government of $10,000 for the most
valuable discovery relating to the utiliza-
tion of electricity, is to be awarded next
December. It is for any use or applica-
tion of electricity, namely, as a source of
heat, of light, or of chemical act ion, as a
means of transmission of mechanical
power, or of verbal communication in
uniform, or, finally, as a curative agent.
One may get a new impression of the
vastness of our country by some compari~
was. Thus the region west of the
VMississippi has room for 203 ordinary!
States such as those in New England.
Colorado would make tvvcnty«""‘ such
States as Connecticut. 7. Yet Colorado is
small compared with Dakota. When we
have dcpopulated the whole world and
gathered all of its people into Dakota,
there would be left to every sixteen souls
one acre of land ; and vast as is Dakota,
it is smaller tliatrfl‘exas by 110,0005quarc
miles. And vast as is Texas, it is only
half as large as Alaska. 7

Cabul the principal court physician was
summoned, and he applied an ointment,
which was no doubt intended to be highly
ellicacious in its ultimate results,’ but at
first it considerably aggravated thc
Amecr‘s anguish, and, having passed a
sletjilcss night, he ordered the instant
)xecution of his medical adviser, who
accordingly was forthwith beheaded in
the courtyard of the palace.

that in some sections of our country cstrn~

farnicis will be sadly rcduccd in means,
no doubt, because of crops failing, yet
this shortagewill rcndcr it possible for
farmers not so unfortunately circuno
cleared to obtain higher prices for thcir
products. In this way, the deticit stated

- lccms to be time,“ in the estimation of
v,
the Boston Times, “for public opinion
to demand at once new methods in
bridge buildingr on railroad lines. In«
genuity and skill have done many things
to decrease dangers on the rail, in the
.../way of air brakes, automatic signals, etc. ‘
The greatest danger now seems to lur
beneath the train, not in it. Until
wooden,and iron bridges even, are sup~
planted by stone Structures wherever it
is 'in anyway possible, the country will
be periodically shocked by accounts of
accidents which resemble in their details
the horrorsof war. The reform cannot
come too quickly. With the disappear~

should bechronicled the appearance of

According to Mr. J. R. Dodge, the
statistician of the Agricultural Depart,
ment at. Washington, the value of the

' $480,000,000. The number of milch cows
. . l
‘now in use for dairy purposes is 21,000,~
000. Calculating that each of these gives
850 gallons of ”milk per your, there is
annual milk yield of 7,350,000,000 gab
Ions, of which about 4,000,000,000 gal- :
Iona is consented in making butter and
700,000,0007gallons in cheese making. i
The quantity of butter produced is esti-
mated to be about 1,350, 000,000 pounds
and of cheese 0,500,000 pounds. The
butter is almost entirely consumed at
home, but the cheese shipments last year
to the English market amounted to over
85,000,000pounds. On the other hand,
we import large quantities of fancy
foreign cheese. In this country, notably
