METALLIC MATERIAIB IN DUILD- Da all sorts of farra constructions Metal is rapidly taking precedenee over other materials; and steel, whieh is the strongest matel in common use, is nOWexteneively used not only for parte of buildings, ap roofe, but fer every part except the floors. Tin was once the best material for roofs; it is now nearly thirty years since I had a tin roof put on my dwelling house, and it has never needed any repair except te renew the iron oxide paint first ap- plied to it, This has been done only twioe in that time, the reason for its durability being that as it is a metal- lic substance ancl makes a chemical eon:wound with -the oil, its adherence to the tin is perfect, and being an oxide it is not affected injuriously by the oxidizing effect of the atraosphere. Th'e steel roofing plates, while' are made in large sheets already painted, are even better, says a writer, than the tin no -w to be procured. Tin plates are now nothing like what they usecl to be, as every one who uses tin pans and pails disoovers to his sorrow, when'oly af- ter a few months' use the bottoms rust out, because of the exceedingly thin and enaperfectly applied coating of tin on the iron. Some substitute becomes desirable a.nd lane is found in the steel roofing plates, which am not only ehea.per than tin, but are much more cheaply applied, as they are quite large need no soldering, but are put togeth- er by turned edges which lap in such a manner as to make a perfectly water and air -proof joint. These plates are now used for covering the whole of the buildings, and are exceedingly desir- able for barns, sheds, and outhouses, Quite recently I suggested to a large sheep owner in Manitoba who consult- ed ane ae to the plans for shelter of his large flocks numbering some thous- ands, to cover the buildings with these steel plates, not only the roofs, but the whole structure. Be followed the sug- gestion, and tater satisfactory ex - penance he has reported that the houses are all that could be desired, and cost only one-third as roach as if lumber had been used. They are fire- proof, so the danger from prairie fires is no longer a source of apprehension. The style of building is also much neat- er than any ordinary wooden structure, and the covering a the buildings calls for no skilled labor, and is done with great rapidity. This material is the best for roofs now made, and even for the best kinds of Tarmacs, is the most desirable, tor the neat appearance of the covering. A roof thus covered needs only a very slight slope, one foot in twenty being amply sufficient to shed the water perfectly. One other matter might be mentioned, which i the safety from fire while placing th covering- on the roof. As tin must be soldered and the tinsmiths use the gaseline furnaces in their work, tbere is much risk of the destruction, of the building in this way, and as insurance, on an unfinished building is either very costly 93.- not to be procured, safety from fire is one more decided advant- age in the use of these steel roofs.. T E eltuation is preferable. For this Am- ato% the bushes can be set in orehards with exeellent results. Plime the plants four or five feet apart. qi,o thoreugh cultivation and a liberal dresairag 4 maniere, In eerlY 01344g remove all the old and weak canes in order that a SUOPOSSiOh of strong new shoots may be secured. 11) 53 very easy to keep the Ineshes free from insects and fungous diseasee, oonsequently this fruit is one ef the most desirable for the 1 armor's home, FLASHES OF FUN.

BEGIN EARLY TO SPRAY: Between now and the time buds com- m.ence to swell in earnest, the orchard, siaall fruit plantations and all nursery stook should be thoroughly sprayed vithBordaux mixture. ,At this time he solution may he of the strength ndicated: Copper sulphate e lbs. quick - rue 4 lbs., water to make 50 gallons. issolve the copper selt in about two gallons of ha water in a wooden ves- el. Or sospend in a, coarse sack in a vessel, of cold water until dissolved. Put this into a barrel. and add 20 or 28 allons of waeer. Slake the lime by ouring water over the lumps and tirring freely. Strain the milk of line and add it to the copper solution n the barrel. Add water until the ixture amounts to 50 gallons. For ater in the season, e dilute solation s required for spraying about blossom - ng time or a little later. This is cle in the same manner, using 2 lbs. opper sulphate and 2 lbs. quicklime -ith the 50 gels. of water.

Missionary's Ad.:coma of the Difficulties Under Which They are Conducted. A missionary writing from China, to a friend recently described the diffi- culties under -which the newly cora- plated railroads are conducted in that country. • Passengers in the first-class coaches, he said, exhibited, so strong a;desire to carry off various articles from the cars as souvenirs of their trip that the coaches were speedily stripped. of those things that contribute to. the comfort of the passenger: They took avraywith them hat and bundle racks, mirrors, lamp beackets, hooks, small tables, and even _doors. They were considerate en- ough to leave the car frame and wheels. And the purloiners were Governnaent officials and people belonging to the wealthy classes. The stations along the railroad over which the writer travelled were rude sheds, -very unclean and without a chair or bench. The cars, too, were very dirty. While this was especially true of the second -ole -ss coaches, evItich were oftentimes, crowded with half -naked, u.nwashed people, the first-class coaches also became very unclean in a short time. It soon became necessary to take out all the upholstery and. replace it by plain seats. When the railroad e were being built reports were spread that the foreign contractors were stealing Chinese chil- dren and burying them in the road- bed so as to propitiate the godwho s rules over raalroads. These reports a knife whose edge is 0 razor -like keenneas.

This is excellent. Sugared Peanuts. ---When you salt your peanuts for your whist party, do not stop at the salt, but sugar them, a trifle, as well. After they are shell- ed, the brown skins rubbed off, and the nuts halved, then slide them in a pan into an oven whose temperature is just right -you'll find what that degree is after you have burned several lots -- with dots oC good, sweet butter scatter - over them. It is well to stir the nuts occasionally that they may brown evenly. When the pan is taken from the oven, sprinkle the butterecl nuts lightly with Cine table salt, and a very little granulated sugar.

The deleterious matter mixed with the flour with which this bread was made was nothing less ,than satvienst rednned to a fine powder se as to re- semble meal. man named Fessat, who has, pre. su.maldy, been making a large fortune by selling, in connivance with millers, a mixture of sawdust and flour, has been arrested. . Five thousand kilogrammes of saw-, dust, addressed to the accused, have just been, seized at the Havre railway station. • Ir. was hoped that in consequence oe this seizure Fessat would be arrested when he came to the Ilovre station to receive the sawdust. A telegram wa,s, however, received on Saturday evening from. the Pont Audemer de- tective department, stating that Fes - sat had, been arrested and was in cus- tody at that Place. • The Tero.ps states that Fessat used to come to Paris to parcbase 'angle quantities of specially prepared, saw-' dust. He sent it by rail to vaxioue parts of tbo hou.ntry, calling for it at the railway stations as soon as he, had found millers in the neighborhood! ready ,to consent to mix, it with the flour sent out to their ou.stomers. In the department of the Euro alone more ,thau five hundred wagonloads of this sawdust are said to have, been consumed. More than five thousand wngonloads have, it is stated, been sent into other departments. Bread mitde -with this deplorable mixture is recognizahle by its pecul- iar smell. and is, naturally, most diffi- cult to digest. Fessat is going to be examined et length, in order to fiml out if he bane not otber accomplices than his cus- I tooners in this exteneive fraud, so dangerous for the public health.
