A NEW tTIME SYSTEM Synchronized Uloc < ca Tliolr Abso lutely Accurate Ity TobtcU. Now Huron Palladium. There la now established In Now Havuu the only oystom , with any ca pacity for oxtenolotj , of aynchronletid clocks , i. o , clocks which , by u almplo aud ttleotlvo device , are knut on ab- solutuly accuratn tltno. Yarlonn nt > touiplo hare boon made abroid and In thla country to nrrauqo ayatoma of clocks to keep uniform tltno , but nmsi of thcso systems have boon n aorlos of electrical clocks or olootrlo dlald which have boon cltivon by an electric cur. rent , making a jump every second , All those systems , which work nicely In a room and with a fair degree of success when the clocks are distributed In different portions of ono building , have been found , when applied to out-dour wires oubjeot to the varying outdoor conditions , prac tical failures. The principal dltlicnlty has boon that a sltiglt ) break would throw ono or more clocks radically out of tltno. Another system , developed to a conildcrablo extent In Paris , Is know as the puouniatlo system , by which every Bcconis recorded by comprooolon of ar is a oerlcs of tubua laid in the etroolu aud brought to the potitlon of the clock. This system , although much loss liib o to Interruption than that of electricity , Is tinoh that any Interruption cantos the clocks to stop. Hlthoito all sys tems hare run from a cloak at one eta * Item. The system which the Standard Time Company has now Introduced hero has worked very successfully for years la London. The clocks used arc good tluio pkcea with the motlvo power furnished , by springs or welghti. They run Indopondoutly of the clco trio current. Tito oilioo of the current Is to glvo once ah hour , or less frequently U dcslrod , a signal which sats every cloak at thosamo time. The signals art ) noways cot out at the oven hours and the clocks nro sot by bring Ing the minute bands to the XII point. Tbo Now Haven syotem , just oponand having oomo fifteen or twenty clocks In circuit , has advantages over any eyatom over before attempted In this country , the advantage of having the moat accurate observatory time. Tito clgnal.i ave not Klvc" f'om a jood clock kept as nearly right M pocelblc ; but arn accurately given from an ns- trouomlo.il clock nt the Yale oboutva tory , the monthly varia'lon of which Is bnt a fraction of a second. As the system is now arranged two or three different patterns of clocka are fur nished with synchronizers attached a clock to bo bought and become the property of the purchaser , who has nothing further to do In the mat ter. The clock is hung on tbo wall , and for a yearly rental the clock li wound and kept right ; and It Is at tended to , when needing repairs , ol the lowest rates. \ \ hoover haa ono ol therio clocks will receive signals twenty-four times a day 3G5 days In the year. The signals are sent ovoi covered wires , thns removing all danger gor of croeslng , which will occur with the best system of uncovered wires , The time given Is the tlmo of thi state csmiug from the clock whiol gives signals to all the railroads un der the statuten of the state ; It Is tin tlmo recognized as official time If sucl a thing can bo said to exist. A note worthy fact is that Now Haven is thi first town this oido of the Atlantic and in fact the only town In the worli oxcapt London , to possess this facility Now York depends on time-balls am unreliable electric dial * . Boston Is ii the same condition. Chicago haa n reliable tlmo and people there are governed ernod , according to business , by on of half a dczan standards. Now Oi leans is In the same condition nn Philadelphia Is not situated mud better. New Haven is the only towi where ono who desired absolutely ac curate time , glvon In a manner intelll glblo to everybody on an ordlnar clock face , can have this service an at a moderate cost.

Egg-Laying Breeds of Poultry. There has boon a wonderful In provomont made In the last few yea ; In thoroughbred poultry- , bred ft special purposes. It Is Impossible I combine all the excellences In ot breed. It Is possible to ooinblr. them In a moderate degree , so as I get good layers and a fair avoraj weight of body. The Plymouth Rod are an Illustration of the best that on bo accomplished in thfs way Thoi who breed lor heavy weights muit m expect to secure great laying qualltli In the same breed , any more thi they can expect speed from a hoai darft animal. Poultry inon , who a near largo city markets , and take a vantage of high prices for fresh egg must bo satisfied with medlum-alz fowls. All the best laying breeds a below the average weight. The Aa atlcs ( Brahmas and Cochins ) lay vo large egga , bat not BO many dcza during the year.

Wheat Production In Indln. India Is already n great wheat-pro ducing country. The orop covers many millions of acres and many degrees of latitude. The harvest period extends over many months , so that when the wheat crop of the southern provinces Is cut ami well on Us way to' Europe , the fields cf the Northern Punjab are atlll carpotad with a green sward of growing grain. The laborers who toll In Indta'n vast wheat I'uids are content with fix cents a dny ni ungos , aud for attire they require but t .vo cotton shirts nvory year for oaoh Individual. It it with Duoh labor as thlt the most sor- vllo , degraded and hopuloaa on earth- that the American wheat grower is competing nnd must coin- polo. This competition is not a quca tion of methods of whf.it oulturo. It in purely a matter t f prices. The Brewers who can cell cheapest in the European market will hold nnd contra' that market. Thus far the Amorlcar farmer had boon able to compete sac cessfully with the wheat producer o : India ir. the markets of Great Brltnlt and Franco , the great wheat con Burning countries. Ho has , In addl tlon , maintained a successful rlvalrj with the pauper labor of Europe Cheap land , improved machinery and unremitting Industry havi enabled him to keep in tin field against all opposition. Sonn rooont discussions In the Brltlahhons of commons , on the Importance of In creasing railway facilities In India are broad and pregnant hints of th posalblllty that ho may have to com pete with an Increased Astatic produo tiou. If a reduction of freight 01 Indian railways now In oporatloi should bo accomplished , and a llttl encouragement of the homo govern ment fo the construction of now line bo adopted as a settled policy , U carnet not bo doubted that the resulting 1m pulse to wheat growing to India won ! materially effect American ugr cultural Interests. It would booiin necessary to substitute othur crops fo grain , which could no longer bo sol ut a fair profit ; and a now standard c value would bo established for than agricultural products for which th world Is a market. Hindoo choa labor would become n oonsldcrabl actor In determining what the Amorl can farmer should raise on lib laui Intelligence of n famine In Indl would Induce the owing of n groate acreage of wheat , to bo surrendered tether t other crops another year While our agriculturists are tht confronted by n constantly onlargln competition , they can hardly fail t note that the burden of taxes cause by vicious tariff loglsla'lon fal heavily upon them. They nro paid I the marts of the world , but they mui purchase everything they need froi men who have secured thorn from tb government the privilege of taxlr the farmer. And although the ere raiser cannot control the ohoap labfl a of other lauds , ho may still , r something to say concorulg thee o clous policy of protection , whiot whllo poworlosa to advance tbo vale o U conatantly operating I 10 of his grain , 10o Incroaao the ooat of every artiolo 1 needs or consumes. : o Again.

T fruit Is hard , woody copsnlo , oval , n unlike the head of a turkor in oizo a shape , and contains five cells , each of which are Incloiod about sooda. The mahogany tree was not dlaoi orod till the end of the IGth ountu and waa not brought into European ) d- till nearly a oontury later. The fi dk kist - mention of It la that It waa used In I ist rop&lr of Bomo of Sir Walter Ralolg ist ships at Trinidad , in 1507. , Ita fin istA variegated tints wore admired , bat of that ago the dream of El Don caused matter * of more value to bo noulcctod. The first that wan brought to England was about 172 < l , n few planks having been cent to Dr. Gibbons bens ot London by a brother who was a West Indian captain. The doctor waa erecting a house , and cave the planks to the 'workmen , who rejected them as bolng too hard , The doctor then had n candle-box made of the wood , his cabinet-maker also com plaining of the hardness rf the tim ber. But , when finished , the box became an object of general curioalty and admiration , Ho had ono bureau , and her grace of Buckingham anoth er , made of this beautiful wood , and thn doeplned mahogany now boaamo a prominent nrtlclo of luxury , and at the same time raUod the fortnnca of the cabinet maker by whom It had boon co Itttlo regarded. Slnco that time It haa taken a loading rank among the ornamental woods , having como to bo considered Indispensable where luxury is Intended to bo indi cated. V few facts will furnish a tolerably distinct Idea of the alzo of this splen did tree , The mahogany lumbermen , having selected a iron , surround It with a plhtform about 12 foot above the ground , aud cut It above the plat form. Bomo 12 or 1C foot of the largest part of the trunk nro thus lost. Yet a single log not nnfrcquoutly weighs from G to 15 tons , and some times measures 17 feet tn length and ! & and 6& foot In diameter , one tree furnishing two , throe or four such logo. Some trees have yielded 12,000 superficial foot , and at average price piicea have Bold for $10,000. Moiara.

The tree Is oat at two seasons of the year In the au tumn and about Christinas time.
