In some localities the grist mill that grinds for toll has entirely given place to mills running on the exchange plan; and in have become such localities farmers pretty well accustomed to the exchange plan of milling, with its advantages to both nrilLer and farmer. But in other localises the old plan of grinding dies hard, and the miller who attempts to .adopt the exchange system has a hard cow to hoe. J,The trouble with farmer is that he wants good flout1 and plenty ol it. He would leave no margin of profit for the miller.

Florists and others at the East have bees discussing the question of the most popular flower of tho country. Borne prefer the some the rose, others the daisy. But Henrietta T. Hollowed, in an article in thg Boston Globe, champions claims of the pansy as the National flower of America, saying: Watch tbe children in tbe publie garden as they gather around the brilliant beds of tbeir favorite, and its name, pansy, must certainly occur to you. Pansy typifie thought.

For this purpose it is growing rapidly in favor. For lubricating purposes none but the very best pluihbago will answer. It must be pure and free fjroti) grit. This purity is attained, not by bolting it, but by floating the plumbago in either air or water. The water method is simplest, and during this process it is treated with a bartf of dilute sulphuric acid, which takes up the particles of spar and iron, leaving the sulphates of lime, qagnesia and iron easily washed out. For metal bearings the plumbagchould be used with oil, but for wool bearings, after a few applications of oil and plumbago, the oil may be dispensed with, and the dry powder only used. On hot axles or journals it should be applied freely, dry, then oil up as usijal. Although plumbago was used for tips purpose more than 200 years ago, the true method of preparing it was not known until within a few years, so that it comes before the bearts-ease- . public almost as a new material.

Judging from Some recent statements of the Scientific American, some nieiu) ought to be adopted to protect innocent patentees from he imposition of class of tricksters , who prey npon them, under the guise of patent brokers. One of their common tricks .s to wnteto someone who has just taken out a patent, and say that they have qn actual offer of $10,000, or some Uch matter, far the patent jor Canada provided the patent is at once taken out far the dominion, which the bioker ffis to do on receipt of the necessary money, which of course he pockets. A11 ytler recent trick is as fallows- The & B., receives a from letter A. patentee asking how much he will sell his patent r such and such a state. He replies, giving a vice, say pat$5,000. The entee soon after receives another letter from X. Y. Z.. saying that A. & B. write they have corresponded with you, and pojv say they have decided to purchase the patent on the teims named, provid ed the title and claims are found to be cprrect. To ascertain th s. they require that X y Z. shall examine and the upon patent, Report B- & A- "ill not otherwise purchase; that if the patentee wishes to complete this sale, he must remu $50 to pay for the examination, whicl is a woik independent of the sale, apd must be inventor The paid. independently sends the money; a repoi t is made to the patentee. Of course no purchase is iifhde or was intended. Some of these sharpers have whole sacks of testimonials from patentees whom .they have fleeced, obtained before the rascally bargain was consumafed, and beloie the that he patentee had time to discover ad been duped.
