AGRICULTURE IN CHINA
FUlds aro Treated I.U;« (lirdcm In the
l-.tii |ilrr,
Notwithstanding the great antiquity
of agriculture among Uieia, the Clii-
noeo have failed to male any great
progreris In it. Their system of culti-
vation la very caiuful and marked by
attention to details; but It shows Ig-
norance <vf tl.o principles of rotation of
crops and adaptation of solla to par-
ticular Rralns, and an extremely primi-
tive knowledge of agriculture imple-
ments. Their fields are treated like
gardens, being subjected to the most
constant and watchful care, both at the
time of planting and during the growth
of the crops. When ripe the crop is
gathered by hand, with tho utmost
completeness; not a straw or leaf
scarcely even a root, being allowed to
remain, says the Hon. Charles Danby
In the Ontury Magazine. The two
most characteristic features of Chinese
agriculture are tho use of manure and
the system of Irrigation. Manure Is
gathered from all conceivable sources.
In tho rltlet the night soil deposited
on the sHes ot the streets and alleys
Is gathered by men and boys. It is
mixed with clay, dried In the uun, and
sold to farmers. On country roads
boys, and often women and girls, are
seen at places where large numbers of
park horses, camels and mules pass,
gathering the material, which is after-
ward, with beneficial effects, spread on
the fields. Earth from canals, rivers
ond streets is carted away for the same
purpose. "Other substances are dili-
gently collected," says Williams, "as
hair from barbershops, expiod-d fire-
crackers and sweepings from the
streets, lime and plaster from kitchen
ona and old buildings, soot, hones an-"
fish and animal remains." The quanti
ty of these fertilizers used and the im
portance the Chinese attach to ther.
are proved by the number of peop!
whose livelihood is gained by thel'
collection.

GREAT BRITAIN'S SNAKES.
Only Thrco Kludn in the Island* and
One In Poinonotm.
Only three kinds are generally rcc-
ogniied in the British lsla-.ds—the
uniooth snalte, the ringed stialt? and
the edder. Irela-id, Indeed, has always
claimed, by furor of St. Patrick, to b«
free from these reptiles, though list
autiiiun two specimens of the ringed
snake wire actually found In County
Wicklow. 1'rohahiy they had been im-
ported, and as they were killed, the
saint's ban, nfter all, may have driven
them to their doom. Of the three
British speeies, one, the smooth snake,
named by zoologists coronella austria-
ca. is rare. In fact, it was not ob-
Ferved until 18:13, and has seldom been
found except in Hampshire, Dorset and
Surrey, perhaps most frequently in
the Bournemouth district. When full
prow il It is about a couple of feet lonj
and might at- the first glance be
thought hii adder. The ringed snake
Is less likely to suffer from mistaken
identity, for its markings and general
tints do not resemble those of the
latter. Indeed it deserves encourage-
ment, since it has been known to swal-
low an adder, though mice and voles,
water newts. frog3 and toads, with
the oi£s and young of birds, form itj
usual diet, it Is the largest of our
snakes, for specimens a yard long are
not uncommon, and a giant of Its kind,
measuring five feet eight Inches, was
onc« captured In the New forest. In
September of last year a house at
Oefucaeau, near I.lanelly, was said to
he suffering from a plague of snakes.
The story has been carefully investi-
*nted.—Chicago News.

From time to time for many yearn
there has been more or less said aDd
written about a universal language,
and several attempts have been made
to build up one that would take the
place of all tongues, but no progress
has ever been attained.
While Voiapuk and kindred artificial
languages have been launched, talked
about, studied by a few persons, and
soon relegated to the shelves of the
philological museum, there has ap-
parently been a language growth that
promises to become universal.
This fact is emphasised by the com-
pilation of recent postoflice reporta
from all of the countries where letter
writing is knowu. This compilation
shows that the poatnff.oes of the world
annually distribute 12,000,000,000 let-
ters. and of these 8,000,000.000 are ad-
dressed in English, 1,200,000,000 la
German and 1,000.000,000 in French,
and all of tho other languages have
leas than 2,000,000,000 between them.
These figures show that the English
language promises to become thn
torque of the nationa. s
