the citizens of Athens, organized a company to build a five thousand-spindle cotton mill at Barnett Shoals, ten miles from Athens. -There are now in use on American railroads 26,415 locomotives, 19,252 passenger coaches, 6,325 baggage cars, 345,914 freight cars. Their value is estimated at $700,000,000. -Wood-fiber capable of being spun is prepared in Germany. The preparation of the fiber of pine leaves as a material for carpets is another promising new -Arkansaw Traveler.

-The shoe factories of Portland, have done $3,580,000 worth of business the last year, the local factories contributing $1,355,000. The factories have turned out 841,000 pairs of ladies' shoes. The factories employ 417 males and 358 females. -We have read a good deal about the civilization of the mound builders, and we have seen the mounds. Piling up a million tons of dirt over a dead Indian and a few stone hatchets don't indicate an advanced state of enlightenment.

The mound builder was only an industrious -Martha's Vineyard Herald. -By means of improved appliances the Germans are now able to extract 11.31 per cent. of beet sugar and 0.65 per cent. of molasses, or a total of 11.96 pounds per 100 pounds of beets.

The largest factory in the world is near Paris, where there is an annual product of twenty million quills.

The cocoons were dark brown when the larve had been placed in a black bag or among green leaves, and white when they had been freely exposed to light in the immediate neighborhood of white surfaces. -Arkansaw Traveler. -The question as to the best width for wagon tires on vehicles used for the transportation of heavy load over dirt roads and farm fields, has become subject of scientific investigation. As the density and hardness of the earth over which the tires to roll enter largely into the problem, it will take a wide range of experiments to enable investigators to fix upon that precise width of tire which will be most uniformly advantageous on all the varieties of dirt roads and farm soils. But that the tires should be much wider than those in general use seems to be conceded on all sides.

-N. Y. Ledger. -The scientific relation of colors to nerves and temper is attracting attention. Physicians sometimes find that a certain color will throw a patient into hysterics or spasms.

In other cases, a person is made sick to the stomach, or afflicted with headache, at the sight of a color that, for some reason, is obnoxious to him. Others, again, are thrown into spasms of ill temper by colors, the offending color sometimes being blue, sometimes yellow, but oftener red or scarlet. Animals are affected in a similar way by colors. Everybody is familiar with the fact that the sight of a red garment or cap will drive a bull frantic with rage, and the red juice of berries is said to have a similar effect upon an Y. Ledger.
