The popular notion- about South Af- rrica Is that it Is >a vast, dry, treeless plain, little suited :to crop farming or stock raising, hut lt Is really one of the best regions for sheep. The west ern half of it its 'almost rainless, and all but the coast 'lands along the south and east have a- deficient rainfall, so that farming its not possible. But over nearly the Whole area nutritious grasses grow, and water can be had for stock simply-by sinking wells. It is estimated that'before the war 13,- 000,000 sheep were grazing in the Great Karoo desert in the northern part of Capo Colony, and the flocks of the Transvaal were without number. In the water supply and irrigation papers af the ’United. States Geology Servey (Nos.

Flies and mosquitoes are killed by two grains of formle aldehyde per cubic metre of air. Fleas are destroyed by seven grains per cubic metro, or ' by burning sulphur.

The Holland Primrose. There Is a plant in Holland known os the evening primrose, which grows to a height of fiv« or six feet, and hears a profusion of large, yellow flowers, so brilliant that they attract immediate attention, even at a great distance. But the chief peculiarity about the plant la the fact that tbe flowers, which open just before sun set, burst into bloom so suddenly that they give one the impression of some magical agency. A man who has seen this sudden blooming says it is Just as if some one bad touched the land with a wand, and thus covered it all at once with a golden sheet Cholera Cnr*.

Covered With Scales of Metal bo .Re duce Wind Reslatanoe. .-At the recent speed'trials on .the Berlin-Zossen road it was found that the wind resistance to a train under speed was one of the most serious ob stacles In the way of obtaining the de sired results. It was found that while at a speed of 50 milesjier hour this resistance on a still day was about 62.2. pounds per square meter of the surface of tbe front end of tbe car, the rate Increased very' rapidly, with the augmentation of speed, so that at a pace of 93.7 miles the .resistance rose to 167.5 pounds.per square me ter of impinging surface. .Every pro jecting part, every window, door or other indentation which could form a pocket to catch the wind created by such high velocities. Increased the re sistance to he overcome, so that In all future experiments, the company ot rapid transit will require that the. factor ot air reslatanoe shaU be taken into careful acount These experiments will be continu ed and the matter of wind pressure will be looked after la the .construc tion of a train, which will be 'tried next , year on this line. This is .to be done .by enveloping the engine .and train,, from pilot to rear platform, in a shield of sheet steel. Jointed so as to secure flexibility in passing curves, and «o constructed as to Intdoso the locomotive and cars la a continuous tube, uniform throughout in size and presenting no projecting Irregularity which shall catch the resisting air. The front of tho engine will be point ed or wedge-shaped, tbe sheath will inclose as far as possible the running gear of the can, and even the wheels of both engine and cars will be closed disks of metal Instead of, as now, spoked wheels with openings tc- catch the air Tbe purpose of the competition Is to secure a design of train accommo- dating 100 passengers and their bag gage, which shall make a speed of 75 miles an hour under the conditions of roadbed now existing on the Prussian State Railways.
