Hair bil s have been found made up of plant hairs other than those from the crims >rt clover,but alwsy i from hatra which are barbed, like those in question. The bulletin from which the above information is ob¬ tained closes with the following sug¬ gestions. "Though crimson clover has long been in use in Europe as a lorage plant, noth ing appears to have been published there regarding its liability loform hair balls, and nothing, therefore, regarding treatment of cases. When the balls have once developed to such a size that they cannot pass through the intestines no practical remedy can be suggested. But the prevention of the difficulty is in most cases easy. The hairs of crimson Clover do not become stiff until the plant nas passed the flowering stage and be¬ gun to ripen. It should be made a rule, therefore, never to feed crimson clover after the crop has ceased flowering, aud especially never to follow the pernicious practice of feeding stock with the straw of crimson clover raised and threshed as a seed crop. By guarding against, im¬ proper methods of feeding there is no reason why crimson clover should not continue to maintain its well merited reputation and increase manure." in use as a for¬ age plant and green Setting at the Right Time. After fruit is ripe it does not pay u keep the trees full. The «s.me ra&y be cliimeJ for poultry. When a bird is ready for market it should not be kept a day longer.

On it plan similar to that employed for the Eiffel tower, in Paris, it is proposed fo construct a much more ambitious “sky-scraper” in Chicago to be known as the city- tower, which will rise LUO feet in the air.
