When ma- new is applied or green crops plowed un- der, the fermentation of the substances in- duces changes of the mineral matter of the soil. and farmers have long ago no- ticed that lime causes an improvement of the soil, the effects 01' which were apparent for several seasons. The food value of lime is a small matter compared with its physical elI‘oct on the soil, as it fuvors the growth (of the nitric ferment and also breaks down existing combinations. When soil is sour. it is neutralized by alkalisâ€" potash, lime, soda, etc.â€"and the combina- tion of lime with other clemen ts existing in the soil liberates potash and places is within the reach of plants. The alkali-s hasten the decay of vegetable matter, and this decomposition also causes chemical action by which the breaking down proc‘ esses are continued, but lime may be use- less on soils that abound in potash and phosphates, which are ready for the use of phints.-â€"Philadelphia Record.

A more grown up person would have plodded on, using the twu phrases side by side. But at 23/; the mind is too alert for these dull ways, and a portnmntcau word was soon pro-, duccd. “ When am I going abroadships?” became a half hourly question. How much more expressive and how much less long than “When am I going abroad on board ship?” Both the new and important ideas of foreign travel and sea. voyage are covered over by that; “one narrow word." “ubrondsbips.” There is, of course, noth- ing the least; remarkable in such a com- pound.

In 1877 smoke wag seen over the shoal. In 1385 the shoal had become a volcanic island more than two miles long and 240 feet high, and a fierce eruption was taking place within it. In 1836 the island had begun to shrink in dimensions, al- though the next year its highest point was 325 feet above sea level. In 1889 its height had diminished one-half, and the ocean close around it was more than a mile deep. In 1892 the island rose only about 26 feet above sea level.
