Hrjliui llrpwcm' .mln, A special machine has been devised for effecting the drying of brewers' grain?! In vacuum at a low temperature. "Brew ers' grains" are now largely employed for feeding cows and horses, but the high nutritive valueof the ss'tit grains known by that name Is not generally known. The dessieated product of the new pnai ess has proved to Ihi of a highly satis factory character, being free from tho js'cnliar bitter taste so often possessed by brewers' grains and showing on anal ysis a v"ry high percentage of proteids and fat producing material. Tho advanfiiKxs claimed for the vac uum drying process are: Tho lowest working expenses with greatest capac ity, rapid drying at lowest temsra turn and consequent excellent quality of tho dried groins; no loss of material or nutritive prors-rtles, as tho grains ar not pressed before drying; ft clean and simple prisons, and tho avoldanco of vapor in the drying rooms or vicinity, New York Telegram, p.ff(illtiiin of IVIld lllrtl.

A party of farmers in Wales once set out in search of a liear which had es caped from a traveling menagerie and roamed their hinds with considerable detriment to their live stock.

The fragment thus chemically determined proves to have neither tin nor zinc entering into its composition, there being simply traces of lead and arsenic. Water and tho atmosphere had made ravages into the specimen, which was practically a suboxide or a compound of tirotoxide and met n ine, copper, ah tiie ruins from which tho piece of metal was taken are authoritatively considered to bn more ancient than even those of llaby Ion, M. Herthelot does not hesitate to promulgate the theory that an lute of copper preceded the bronzo ami iron periods, especially as tho examination of the comiionent parts of a portion of a metallic scepter which, it Is alleged, be lonuod to it pharaoh who reigned in Eimit some 8,500 years 13.

The problem has troubled many why two pieces of wood, sawed from tho same section of ft tree, should possess very varied characteristics when used in if ferent positions. For example, ft gate post will be found to decay much faster if tho butt tttnl of the tree is uppermost than would n tho case if the top were tilacediu this position. The reason is that the moist lire of the atmosphere will permeate the pores of the wood much more rapidly the way the tree grew than it would if in the opposite direction. Microscopical examination proves that tho pores invite the ascent of moisture, while tliev reiM'l its descent. Take the familiar case of a wooden bucket, Many may have noticed that some of the staves appear to bo entirely saturated, while others are apparently quite dry. Thi arises from the same cause the dry staves are in tie position in which tho treo grew, while tint saturated ones are reversed, Loudon Tit-Hits, I arrvlig (lot ulnm In llntlltt.
