One of the tirst tn rec ignizc the great importance of utilizing electricity for farm tug pnrpoaeM lu England was the Marquis of Salisbury, who not only uses the water power on his estate for light ing by electricity, but. also grinds his corn, cuts his horse fodder, pumps his water and does a variety of other work by means of electric motors. On many manors which are adjacent to streams of water tho farmers are beginning to real ize tho great possibilities which are close at hand for the more economical work ing of their farms and are installing electrical plants which can be worked at a cost uuapproached by any other means. There are tensof thousands of portable and other steam engines owned by agri culturists in this country which could be utilized in a variety of ways in con nection with electricity. The mere sav ing in insurance alone would in number less cases justify a farmer in driving his thrashing, chuff cutting and grinding machinery by an electric motor instead of being obliged to bring bis engine, as now, right into his furrn buildings.— New York Telegram.

McLain of the United States consulate at Nassau, in the Bahama islands, iu response to the direction of tlie state department, lias furnished an interesting paper on the sponge trade of the Bahamas, in which the value of (lie industry and thv meth ods of catching the sponges are given. Tlie vi«sels employed in the .trade are small, varying from live to twenty-five tons, sloop or schooner rigged, and are built in the local shipyards. The con struction and repair of these vessels con stitute an important industry in itself They have small cabins for sleeping pur poses The cooking is done on deck. About 500 of these vessels are engaged in gathering springes. The numhe; of persons gathering tponges in the Bahamas, handling them and preparing them in various stages for market, is from 5,000 to 0,000, all of whom, except tlie shipowners, brokers and shippers, are black peoplo. Hands employed in clipping, washing, packing and preparing finally for shipment abroad get from fifty to seventy-five cents per day of ten hours. The amount earned by the men who go fishing de pends entirely on the number of sponges obtained. Tlie owner of the vessel fits her out at his own expense, and the profits of the voyage are divided up in shares among the owner, the master and tho men. They are never hired by the mouth, nor do they ever got specified wages. The most that can be said is that the men make a tolerable living, and the sponge fisherman who earns over $300 a year is the exception. HOW SPONOKS A HR QATHKTtKD. Tlie method of gathering sponges is by means of iron hooks attached to long poles. By using a watergluss tlie fisher man can readily discover the sponges at the bo*'nm, and then by the pole und houk ■ 1 bring up those he limy select, leaving the smaller ones untouched. Some singes adhere firmly to the bed of the sea, while others are not attached at all, these latter being known as “roll ers. " About ten years ago an attempt was made to introduce dredges, hut it was found that tlioir use wus likely to ruin the beds, because in passing over the bottom they dislodged and brought up not only tho good sponges, but tlie young and unsalable ones as well, kill ing tbe spawn und working great 11.is- chief. Such an outcry was raised against dredging that an act was passed forbid ding it. When brought to the vessel the Bpongos are at unco spread upon the dock and left exposed to the sun for several days, during which time the animal matter t hat covers tho sponge gradually dies. This is a black, gelatinous sub stance of a very low order of marine life, which, during the process of decay, emits a most objectionable odor. Tho vessels visit whul is called the kraal once a week to land tho load from the deck. The kraal is an inclosed pen, fenced in by sticks of wood so as to al lew a free circulation of water through it, usually built in a sheltered and shal low buy or covo, on one of tlie cays near by. THE CROP OP 1890. Tim sponges are placed in tho kraal and left to bo soaked and washed by the actiou of tlie water from four to six days, when they uro taken out and beaten with sticks until the decayed covering is entirely removed. Having been sub jected to this course of exposure, soak ing, beating and washing, tlie sponges are quite clean and are taken on board the vessel, packed iu tho hold, conveyed to Nassau, and in this comlitiou are sold in the local market. Of the larger sponges a catoh of 5,000 or of the smaller ones 7,000, would be considered a fair lot. Occasionally cargo of from 12,000 to 15,000 large sponges has been brought in, but this success is exceptional. The principal varieties gathered iu the Bahamas are as follows: Boat, grass glove, hardhead, reef (white and dark), velvet (nbaco and cay), sheep wool, and yellow, of which the most valuable is sheep wool. The total export in 1800 reached over 900,000 pounds, valued ut $300,896. Tlie crop of that year wus above the average, being really tlie most valuable one in many years. Of that crop there were shipped to the United States 708,000, valued at $230,000. Bahama spongeH are not considered very good, but a ready market is found for h11 that can lie obtained, und nt con stantly improving prices. There are no indications of any failure of the supply. —Philadelphia Ledger.
