SMELTING SILVER.
Iron and Lead Ores Act as Fluxes
for Its Reduction
The R e f ,„.a s„v„ o ut
In Solid Ericks.
A smelting furnace is tall and wf
oblong shape, about 24 feet high, 12
feet long and 8 feet wide, the lower
part of its walla built of double easi-
iron boxes called water jackets through
which a constant stream of water
runs,, thus preventing tiieir being
melted awsv by the tierce heat within
the furnace, The walls about the
water jackets are of tire brick. Below
the water jackets tubes called tuyere
admit a strong blast of air driven by
pumping machines called blowers.
The lead and silver aro put in at the
top, mixed with coke and limestone
and also with iron oro. The iron and
lead ores and lime act* ns fluxes for
thoroughly melting and reducing the
silver ore. If zinc, sulphur and arse¬
nic are present, which is frequently
the ease, the ora must previously be
subjected to a chorry-rcd heat in low,
flat furnaces called roasting furnaces,
which drives off these most volutile
metals. The contents of the blast fur-
nace being melted, tho silver and gold
settle at tho extreme lowest point in
the furnace; just above them tho cop¬
per, if there is copper; above that the
lead, and still further up the slag.
If you look into the furnace from
the top you see nothing but tiio uu-
meltcd fresh ore, the hot masses below
it giving no token of their presence
save by faint oozing of light vapory
Bnroke. The molten metal is drawn
off from tho bottom from time to time
and received in moulds, while from a
vent about two feet higher is drawn
the hot fluid slag, Each of the three
kinds of material which go into the
furnaco requires the labor of many
hands.
Not only are busy miners delving in
tho drifts and tunnels of Leadville,
Silverton, Onrny and Silver Cliff, bul
oilier toilers win bread by quarrying
limestone at Cape Horn, and still
others by digging coal and stocking
the coke ovens at El Moro. About 3(10
men are employed at this smelter. For
everything in a smelter there are two
ihifts of men, working day aud night.
A blast furnace, whether producing-
Ing iron or lead, cannot stop for night
or Sunday. It must keep going or the
great quantity within its wafer-jack¬
eted, fire-bricked walls would still and
harden into a solid mass that nothing
less than dynamite could remove.
Regular shipments eastward are made
of tho various products of the smelter-
Big heavy bars of pig lead are shipped
daily. The small ami handsome cop-
per bars, weighing only about eigh-
teen pounds each, bearing the proper
brand, are shipped in barrels—a barrel

each. An average shipment is eight-
een of those bricks. They go every
alternate day by express. Dollars
and half dollars, quarters and dime,,

Pueblo, Col., aro jingling in people’s
pockets and buying their bread in
every city and village iu tho Union,
and in India and China.
Even the refuse of a smelter is of
use. It takes a big squad of men to
“pull pots.” This is to haul away the
slag. The slag from a smelter is ex-
tremely heavy material, much heavier
than that from iron furnaces, and is
therefore especially useful in building
or lining levees and reservoirs. Slag
from the I’upblo smelter is scattered
along tho railroads at every bridge
and spot exposed to tho washing of
streams for 200 miles. — [Jeweler’s lie-
view.
Preaching in the Mines.
The gold fever of 1849, which it is
difiicult for the present generation to
appreciate, is well suggested by this
incident told by Dr. Charles B. Gil¬
lespie in the Century in a description
of “A Miner’s Sunday in Coloma.”
Passing up the street, 1 came to a
la^ge unfinished framo houso, the
sash let 8 windows and doorway
crowded with a molely crew appar¬
ently intent upon something solemn
happening within. After a little
crowding and pushing I looked over
the numberless heads in front, and
saw—could I believe my eyes?—a
preacher, as ragged and as hairy ns
myself, holding forth to an attentive
audience. Though tho careless and
noisy crowd was surging immediately
without, all was quiet within. He
spoke well and to the purpose and
warmed every one with hi* fino and
impassioned delivery. He dosed with
a benediction, but prefaced it by say¬
ing: “There will be divino service in
this house next Sabbath—if in the
mean time, I hear of no new dig-
gia’s.”

“Well, forester, did the Baron have
good luck?”
“Remarkably good luck!”

THE 1IKIUUTII OF HORSES.’
The writer iu a turf journal gives
the following rule to estimate the
height a colt will grow to: Take a
colt at any tiino between six weeks
old and one year, stand him on a level
surface so that he will stand naturally,
then measuro the distance from the
hair of the hoof to his knee joint, aiul
for every inch or fraction thereof lie
measures he will be hands high when
matured. If lie measures fifteen
inches ho will grow to be fifteen hands
high; if fifteen and one-half inches,
lie will be fifteen and one-half hands
high, and so on.
THE PINEAPPLE AS A POT PLANT.
The pineapple is perhaps one of the
most important of all tho tropica 1
fruits. In the extreme southern part
of Florida there are immense planta¬
tions of them, and from these tho peo.
pie in that section derive almost their
eutire iucome from the crop . Great
quantities are grown in Europe under

to them there than in this country,

to bearing is a very interesting sight
to most people. After the j>lant has
attained its full size it begins to turn
;ed in the centre, and in a few
days you can see the young fruit,
which looks like a 1 li - tte, way
down in ibe centra; this is pushed u:
pretty rapidly by the central fruit

CLOVER FOR PIGS.
The phrase “pigs in clover” has long
stood as representing the highest poin,
of animal contentment. When pigs have
plenty of other food they will still eat
sufficient clover to keep tli ir digestion
good, and thus thrive better than
under any other conditions. But it is
the other food rnainlv that makes the
'
■ f . “"-fed food
ZrT' for a considerable T ,,C K part ot tiieir diet.
Good as clover liay is for cows and
horses, it is not readily eaten by pigs
unless starved to it. Those facts
which fully correspond with the exne-
rienceof farmers, are made more plain
by recent experiments at the New
York State Experimental Station at
Geneva. Where pigs wore forced to
oat a considerable portion of clover
‘hey gained very little, and might have
starved had r.ot a small amount.of
corn meal been added to their ration.
Tho conclusion was that clover for
pigs was worth no more than its value
as manure, and this is expressing its
feeding value for pigs at oven less than
we had supposed. — [Boston Culti-
vator.
FACTS WORTH REMEMBERING.
Spraying with poisonous substances
for tho destruction of insects or com-
batting fungus growths has now be¬
come so necessary and common that
tho following facts, condensed from a
paper read by Professor Maynard at
a mooting of the Massachusetts Horti¬
cultural Society, will bo useful to a
great many readers:
Of all tho arsenites Paris green
gives the best results as an insecticide.
The longer tho mixture containing
arsenites stands tho greater tho injury
from soluble arsenic.
The foliage of the peach, plum and
cherry is moro susceptible to injury
than that of the apple or pear.
Tho injury varies with the varieties,
somo being moro suscoptiblo than
others.
Young leaves aro less injured titan
those fully developed, and Are more
injured on weak trees than on those
that are vigorous and healthy.
Paris green cannot be used alone
with safety stronger than one pound
to 300 gallons of water, but with the
liino mixture it may be safely used at
one pound to from fifty to two hun¬
dred gallons.
Tho foliage is most injured when
kept constantly wet by light rains or
foggy weather, but heavy rains lessen
the injury.
The least injury is done when the
liquor dries off most rapidly.

tion is made is unimportant__[New

GAPES IN CHICKENS.

mix thoroughly in a vessel set within
tilled with boiling water,
and when cooled sufficiently apply.
This is also good for lien lice. The
parasites in the windpipe, which are
thin and about half an inch long, are
destroyed by stripping a small quill
feather to within half an inch of the
end; dip in spirits of turpentine and
insert it into the windpipe at the base
of the tongue, turn it around once or
twice and withdraw it. Repeat th°
next day if necessary. Warm shel¬
ter, soft food, well mixed with black
pepper, with skim milk to drink, will

allowed to become wet with dew, and
it is not good for older ones. — [Prai-

A BALKY HOUSE.
A Washington subscriber asks:
“What will cure a balky horse; one
that winds himself around the other
and throws himself?’’
Balking is almost invariably the re¬
sult of over-loading and harshness a
sometimes iu the horses’ training and
when he balks beating or harsh meat
sure* of any kind only aggravate the
matter. He seems to fliink he has a
grievance, and will not start while he
broods over it. Any mild measure
which will divert his attention will
break the spell.
The only way we know of is to find
out what “measure” will suit the in*
dividual case in baud. One ingenious
driver pulled down the left ear of hii
baiky horse, and tied it there. It VII
a new experience to the animal and he
started along without further trouble,
But the driver's satisfaction was some-
m tdifi 1 when be found that the
horse ever after refused to start unti;
his left ear was tied doqrn to the head
stall.
A means which is used with some
succc-s is to at onco unhitch the horse
when he balks aud lead him around
several times in a narrow circle. He
is then replaced in the shafts and goes
on with no more trouble. Another
method is to go to the horse’s head,
speak kindly to him, then lift one of
his feet and tap it lightly a few times
with a stone. A pat on the head or a
stroking of the nose, at tho same timo
giving a little sugar or salt will start
some.

Tea Culture in California.
Minister Denby, our minister to
China, received some time ago from
the Chamber of Commerce of Los
Angeles a request to forward some
tea seed for the purpose of beginning
the culture of tea near that city. He
now writes to the state department
that ho has instructed Consul Ardrews
at Ilangkow to send on some tea seed,
so we shall soon hear of the attempt
to raise tea in California.
This state has such a variety of soil
and climate that there is abundant
reason to believe that localities may
be found where tea may be grown
success full)’. A number of years ago
Great Britain tried the experiment of
planting tea in Bombay, and it has
proved an entire success, Bombay tea
now bringing a better price in the
London maiiket than either Chinese or
Japanese.
Tea is consumed in much greater
quantities than many people imagine.
For the year ending June 30, 1890>
there were imported into the United
States 83,886,829 pounds of tea, and
for the same year the British imports
were fully threo* times as large.
Could California supply even one-
tenth of the quantity of all the tea
used in the United States it would be
no small addition to our home iiulus-
tries. It is certainly to be hoped that
the Los Angelos experiment may
prove a success, and even if it should
turn out that tea cannot be grown
there to advantage, the search for a
suitable location for tea plantations
may be continued elsewhere until the
question of tea culture in California is
entirely determined.—[San Francisco
Chronicle.
Flora of the World.
The flora of Europo embraces about
ten thousand species. India has about
fifteen thousand. The British pos¬
sessions in North America, though
with an area nearly as large as Europe,
has only about live thousand. One of
the richest floras is that of Cape of
Good Hope and Natal, which figures
up about ten thousand species. Au-
stralia also is rich in species, about ten
thousand being now known.

Wigs Out of Date.

Mulberry street, New York, who doesn’t
take kindly to the ways of modem bald-

other day, “men who were bald took
great would pains to have a good wig made,
and pay a heavy price for it.
Nowadays they prefer to wear a shining
pate, catch cold, have pneumonia and
die. Fashion may alter thi3 state of
things some day, but just now the busi¬
ness is dead. It seems to me sometimes
that men actually exult iu their bald¬
ness.”
