Bleeding Bread.
Considerable dismay was caused in
England during the recent hot weather
by the appearance of blood stains in
bread, arid also in boiled potatoes, and
other farinaceous substances. In superstitious times, this somewhat rare
phenomenon was regarded as a miracle, but modern science has shown that
it is due to the growth of a microscopic
plant, which is known to some—according to Dr. M. C. Cook—as Micrococcus
prodigiosus and to others as Bacillus
prodigiosus. The true explanation of
the terrifing blotches was first pointed
out by a Padnan naturalist in 1S19.
The same production was seen near
Berlin by Ehrenberg in 1848, at Rouen
by Dr. Cam ille Montaigne in the same
year, and was first recorded in Britain
in 1843. About 1886 an epidemic visitation on the Continent was attributed
to this source. Carmine—red blotches
capable of staining the lingers, appeared on cooked meat during the
night and various articles of food were
similarly affected until after about
three months, the epidemic suddenly
ceased on the advent ot a lower temperature. Presenilis found the individual organisms to be round or oval cells
not more than one 2,000 to one 4,000 of
a line in diameter. They develop
only in the dark, iind when kept continuously at a temperature of 100 degrees F. their color Is, gvivdualty lost.
The Former and   His .Market   Must Be
Brought Into Closer Contact.    .    *
Governor Flower of New York, before
the  Orleans  County Agricultural so-.
ciety, had the.following to.say concern--*
ing the improvement of highways:
I cannot help thinking that it is the
question of cost. "Which: frightens the
farmer when he 'begins considering the
subject "of good, roads.; It "is-too true
that "many of our farmers are reduced
to that condition where the paying of an
extra- dollar of tasation-ds harder than
having a tooth extracted.' -But the aver-
age-farmer is too sensible a nian to complain of taxation if the results are going
to, put more money in his -pocket and
make his life more comfortable. And it
may take some time to prove conclusively to him that this is exactly what good
roads.will do, but when'jhe is convinced
he will be one of the most earnest agitators in the movement.
It has been shown by .many' statistics
and various calculations that good roads
are cheaper than bad roads. I tried to
show in my annual message to the legislature last January that .the counties of
the state now expend in actual money
and in day's labor valued at $1 a day for
each man about. $3,000,000 a year upon •
their roads, exclusive of the time and
money spent on road and street improvement in villages and cities. This is- an
average of §50,000 for each county. That
amount of money scientifically expended
each year would build over seven miles
of good macadam road at a cost of §7,000
per mile. Or if the county preferred to
build roads faster this annual expenditure would pay the interest and provide
a small amount for the sinking fund on
an issue of bonds sufficient to construct
over 140 miles of macadam roads.
I venture to say there is not a county
in this state, which, if it would bond itself for $1,000,000 and invest the money
in the scientific construction of highways, would not in five years have increased the valuation of its real estate
twice the amount of the investment.
But that would be only a small part of
the gain. The greater part would be in
the saving of wagon transportation—a
saving in vehicles, a saving in horses, a
saving in time, a saving in labor, a saving in risks, a saving in markets.
Every farmer knows that bad roads
sometimes keep him from town when
prices of grain are high and thereby
cost him a good profit. Every farmer
knows how long it takes him to travel
over bad roads. Every farmer knows
how much larger a load his team would
pull if the roads were hard and smooth.
Every farmer knows what a considerable item in his annual expenses is the
repair of wagons and harness whose
strength and safety have been crippled
by bad roads. Every farmer knows how
much more it costs to keep three or four
horses instead of one or two, as he might
•with equal service with a system of
good roads. Every farmer knows that
his farm would increase in value if
by good highways it could be brought
into speedy communication with village
or city. All these things our farmers
know when they think of them, and they
know that the sum of these pecuniary
advantages in favor of good roads would
vastly outweigh the <• st of procuring
them.
But in spite of these advantages, which
I have heard or seen no man deny and
tho demonstration of whichiseasy, good
roads are slow in coming, and we cling
to our old fashioned habit of once or
twice a year plowing up the sides of a
highway into the middle and calling that
road improvement. We have reached a
stage of development in this state where
a network of smooth highways is absolutely necessary for future progress.
Our cities are becoming so big and require so much food that our farms must
he brought into close contact with them
or the farms of other states which have
good roads or better railroad facilities
in the agricultural regions will usurp
our markets.

The Prolific Gooseberry.
The amount of fruit gathered from
prolific gooseberry bushes is often surprising. "How many gooseberries did
you get from those three rows, eightrods
long?" Mr. C.-A. Green of Rochester
asked his foreman. ' 'Eighteen bushels,"
was the reply. The men scraped them
off in handfuls, with gloved hands. They
then ran them through the fanning mill,
like so many beans, blowing out all the
leaves and stems.
