a Mongolian pheasant hen from her

set them under a common hen, and.

going the rounds, anil which whs
credited lu some quarters, that the
Nor'b Hank road would erect some 40

employes who have families. Kail
roads do some times build cottages
tor employes, but ouly in cases wheie
it Is impossible for employes to se
cure houses to live iu, but not other
wise. In the present case a numbar of
houses ha I already been erected on
the Cliffs towusite, others were under
cuiifctruotion and have since been
oompleted, while plaus were maturing
to provide for the erection of a smile

road, has given it out flat, so there
there cau bo no doubt about the mat

not one foot of ground in Cllils to

A Trap for Apple Worms.
A. 8. lloau. of New Plymouth, did
not do any squeezing during the moo
ey pauio and is probably not, there
fore, responsible foi ilattening ont
tho brokers and stock gamblers; but
he is an advocate of the squeezing
process lust the same, as la shown by
his invention toi annihilating the
codling moth worm. The oontrivauoe
is made of two short blocks, or pieces
of wood, about four inches long, that
clamp together and are fastened to
the tree by brads or small screws, Be
tween the pieces of wood, space
euouuh is left so that tho worms cau
crowd lu aud hide. The adjustment
is iiiado in the "catcher" so that the
pieces cau he sprung together. Then,
every week or ten days, during the
colling moth breeding season, the
truit man goes tbiough the orchard,
Ihtn the top piece ot the trap a sharp
blow and the worm vanishes, or more
propoily speaking, flattens out. This
is nil there is to it, aud Mr. lleau says
his invention does the business. He
iins secured a patent and expects to

Remarkable Deschutes River.
The Deschutes is one of the most
remarkable rivers lor its size in the
wcild. especially the tipper river. It
falls 400 feet iu 200 miles. It freezes
ou the bottom, seldom on tho surface
lis flood amounts to but a few inches,
aud that occuis mostly in the winter
mouths, when every thing elt.e Is
tiozeii up; iccasioUHlly also is there a
like flood iu turly summer. it is
crystal clear all the year round yet
sometimes unlit to dtluk.
Its tlood is seldom more than rue
filth more than its normal flow where
us in other streams the flood are a
thousand times tneir normal flows.
Purt of it, uetrly half, runs under
ground for 50 miles before emerging
into the sunlight again carrjlng cpr.U
with it. To make it navigable, engi
neers say, would take 62 years and a
sum in excess cf $800,000,000,000.
