The gentleman has always had great faith in his cows paying weU, but thought tho hens a bill of expense. Tho lady, on tho other hand, contended that tho hens paid better than tho cows. Ac cordingly ono spring she determined to keep books for ono season and ascertain tho respective merits of both. Sho cred ited the hens with nil eggs laid, and in teresting indeed was the contest as tho time drew nigh for receiving tho check from tho cheeso factory. But it came ut last, and behold, tho hens were ahead, and bo it continued throughout tho bea son. Ono hundred hens to thrco cowb, and as they had decided in tho spring that it would cost about tho samo to keep each, tho gentleman was forced to yield tho point and admit that tho hens wero most profitable: and if others would keep nn exact account they would bo surprised at tho result, but most farmers do not givo their hens credit for anything ex cept what eggs aro taken to market. It is not at all difficult to mako hens pay SI per head per annum if properly cared for. Tho writer on ono occasion mado $3 per head on five dark Brahma hens after paying all expenses. This, it will bo understood, was per eggs and meat alone, not for breeding stock, as half a dollar was tho highest prico realized for young birds. Farmers' Advocate. Cannonading for Rain. A rather peculiar petition was pre sented to tho Kansas house by Mr. Sher man, of Rooks county. It was from 132 citizens of that county. They want the legislature to mako an appropriation for tho purposo of experimenting in tho mat ter of securing artificial rainfall by means of cannonading. Tho petition was as follows: "We, your petitioners, many of us veterans of tho late war, knowing from oxperienco that heavy rainfalls fol lowed each battle or heavy cannonading, and believing that this fact indicates that man may produce rainfall by artificial perturbation of tho atmosphere when otherwise it would not bo experienced, and believing it would bo wiso for tho state of Kansas to mako u reasonablo ex periment in tho matter of attempting to produco artificial rainfall, would most respectfully ask you to mako an appro priation out of tho treasury for tho pur poso of such experiments either by can nonading or otherwise as may bo deemed best. Kansas City Star. A Queer Stntno of Quern Victoria. Everybody knows that tho Princess Louiso is not a mero amateur dabbler, but a real artist in sculpture, and tho statuo of tho queen on which sho is en gaged, and which is to bo erected in Kensington Gardens, between tho palaco and tho round pond, will certainly bo as daring in design as it will bo novel. It is intended to represent her majesty as sho appeared on tho memorablo morning in Juno, 1837, when it was announced to her that sho was queen of England. It will bo remembered Sir Georgo Hayter's picturo lias commemorated it that upon tho occasion tho Princess Victoria ap peared m tho scantiest of attire a mero robo do unit, with a shawl hastily Hung over it. Rumor has it that tho Princess Louiso is succeeding in giving to this decidedly unconventional attiro tho ap- pearanco of quito classical drapery. London Life. That Settle It. I met tho Hon.

Sutter was born in Baden in 1803 of Swiss parents, and was proud of his connection with tho only republic of consequenco in Europe, He was a warm admirer of the United States, and somo of his friends had persuaded him to come across tho Atlantic. He first went to a friend in Indiana with whom ho staid awhile, helping to clear land, but it was business that ho was not accustomed to. So ho mado his way to St. Louis and in vested what means ho had in merchan dise, and went out as a New Mexican trader to Santa Fe. Having been unsuc cessful at Santa Fe he returned to St. Louis, joined a party of trappers, went to the Rocky mountains, and found his way down the Columbia river to Fort Vancouver. Thero ho formed plans for trying to get down to tho coast of Cali fornia to establish a colony. Ho took a vessel that went to tho Sandwich islands, and thero communi cated his plans to ieoplo who assisted him. But as thero was no vessel going direct from tho Sandwich Islands to Cal ifornia, ho had to tako a Russian vessel by way of Sitka. Ho got such credit and help as ho could in the Sandwich islands and induced five or six natives to accompany him to start tho contem plated colony, no expected to 6end -to Europe and tho Umtod States for his colonists. When ho came to the coast of California, in 1810, he had an interview with tho governor, Alvarado, and ob tained permission to explore the coun try and find a placo for his colony. He camo to tho bay of San Francisco, pro cured a small boat and explored the largest river ho could find, and selected the site where tho city of Sacramento now stands. Gen. Bidwell in Century. Silver in Volcunlc Ashes. The existenco of silver in volcanic ashes is a rare occurrence. Only in two cases have argentiferous ashes been met with. Tlio sample was obtained during an eruption of Cotopaxi in July, 1885, in tho ashes of which Mr. J. W. Malet proved tho existence of ono part of sil ver in 83,000 parts of ashes. In tho fol lowing year tho satno investigator was able to add a second instance. In Janu ary, 18SC, a violent eruption of Tun, guragua, in , the Andes of Ecuador, be tween fifty and fifty-five miles from Cotopaxi, took place, tho eruption con tinuing at longer o.r shorter intervals up to November of tho same year. The ashes thrown by this volcano, which had been at rest for over a century, contained silver to tho extent of one part in 108.200 parts of ashes. This ap pears, at first sight, to bo only a very small percentage of the metal; but when it is considered what enormous quanti ties of ashes aro erupted, and what a vast extent of area they cover aftor an eruption, the quantity of silver thrown up with them must W considerable. Butte Inter-Mountain. Nutritive Properties of Cream. The fact is not so well known as it de serves to W that cream constitutes an admirable nutriment for invalids.
