SCIENTIFIC SCRAPS.
Two French Investigators have found
that the germs of fermentation are not
destroyed or perceptibly affected by •
pressure of 800 to 400 atmospheres con¬
tinued for several days. |
Prof. Langley’s researches have led him
to conclusions which imply that, in the
absence of absorbing atmosphere, the j
earth would receive sufficient heat from
the sun to melt an icc-shcll about 180 feet
deep over the globe’s entire surface.

Dr. Phipson, in a German scientific |

A “black snow” which fell in 1878
over an area of about fifteen by twenty
miles iu the vicinity of Holland, Mich.,
was found to contain a considerable pro¬
portion of dark earthy matter. This was
subjected to elaborate scientific examina¬
tion and pronounced volcanic dust from
some far distant crater. A dissenter
from this view has Bought a simpler ex-
; plauntion, and has since proven that the
dust came from the prairie soil a hundred
miles to the southward.
After a careful study of the subject
Professor P. D. Penhallow concludes that
the formation of the so-called “anuual
rings" of growth in trees is chiefly de-
termined by whatever operates to produce
alternating periods of physiological rest
and activity. In cold climates the rings
are an approximately correct, but not al-
ways a certain, index of age. In warm
climates, however, the rings are of no
value in this respect, as the growth is
more likely to mark a period of rainfall
than the yearly hot period of summer.
For Telling Horses Ages.
The full-grown horse possesses twenty-
four back teeth, that is, six in each side
of each jaws; these are called molars or
grinders. He has twelve front teeth,
that is, six in each jaw. Mares have no
tushes. The foal has either at his birth or
shortly afterward eight milk teeth, that
is, four in each jaw, at about 12 months
two more milk teeth come ^
each jaw. These remain unchanged
till he is 3 years old. The mouth
of the yearling and 2-year old can¬
not be confounded. The yearling mouth
shows signs of use, and the corner teeth
are shells only; at 2 yean old these teeth
arc strong and well grown, and the cor-
ner teeth filled up. A little before I
years the two center teeth of each jaw
fall out and are replaced by permanent
teeth. A little before 4 the two teeth on
each side of the center teeth are re-
placed by permanent ones. A little be-
fore 5 the two remaining teeth are shed,
and in their place ooracs permanent
ones. The upper milk teeth usually fall
out first.
Thus the mouth is completed ns to its
front teeth; the corner tooth, however, is
but imperfectly developed, being at pres-
ent a shell only; this shell at 6 years old
has filled up and is a complete tooth,
This is the difference between a 5 and
ear old. The tushes appear between 8 1-3
and 4 years old, and they take nearly two
years to arrive at their full growth,
'These teeth, ns the horse grows older,
get blunter and shorter, and so to an ex-
perienced judge are a sure indication of
age. Up to 6 years old the mouth is in a
distinct and periodical state of struction-
al change. There is no difficulty in dc-
termining the age up to that date. Af-
ter that the age must be judged by the
shape of the mouth and the appearance
of the teeth called the mark. At 6 years
of age the cups leave two center teeth
above, at 7 tho next two above, at 8 the
outer or cellar tcctl. .,ivc.
At i) the two center teeth below lose
the cups, at 10 the next two below, and
at 11 the outer or corner teeth below.
After a little practice the close observer
can scarcely make a mistake. The change*
that occur are the same in all horses
or nearly so.— Sportsman.

The Inventor of the Circular Saw.
In a lonely, secluded spot ia the north-
west corner of the cemetery, near the
ever-bcautiful little village of Richmond,
Kalamazoo County, Mich, the reader can
find on a pure white marble slab nearly
concealed from view by a large cluster of
lilac bushes, engraved the simple inscrip-
tion, “Benjamin Cummings, born 1772,
dead A. D. 1848.” And who was Benja-
min Cummings? He was the inventor of
the circular saw now in use in this coun-
try and in Europe. Nearly sixty years
ago, at Burtonville, New Y”ork and Ams-
terdain, this man hammered out, at his
own blacksmith’s anvil, the first circular
saw known to mankind. He was a noted
pioneer in Richmond; a first cousin to
one of the Presidents of the United States ^
a slave owner in New Y T ork State; a lead-
ing Mason in the days of Morgan, at
whose table the very elect of the great
State of New York feasted and drank
freely of his choice liquors and wines; a
vessel owner on the North River before
the days of steamboats; a captain in tho
wnr of 1812> w hcre, after having
three horses shot un< j er him, with
one Btroke of his sword ho
brought his superior officer to tho
groun q for j nfiu i t) an( j because ho

having boen court-martialed, instead -
being shot, he was appointed Colonel

the construction of the first ten miles of
railroad built in the United States, and
founded both the villages of Esperenc

man’s life appeared to be to do th -t
