when they, are :stretched, they supply the full
organ 4ity4l minutes..' The mode of filling
them with .air is singular ; for instead of
hworking with his hands, a man walks buck-
vartis and, forwards along an inclined plane
of about 15 feet in lerigth,• which is balanced
in the middle on its axis ; under each end
is a pair of bellows, of
.about six feet by
three and au half. These communicate with five
other pair united by a bar ; and the latter are se
contrived, that when they are in danger of being
overstrained, a valve is.lifted up, and gives then.
relief. Passing ten times along the inclined plane
fills all these vessels.

SAILIT IN CORN PREVENTED.—Mr. B. PREVOn
Hgives the following method of preparing seed
corn to prevent the smut :—lnto a cistern put
one gallon of water,i ale measure, and dissolve in
it one ounce of sulphate of copper, for every
bushel of corn to be prepared. Having two tub's
that will contain about eight boshels, throw into
one of them about two bushels of comp nod then
pour on the solution till it covers the corn an
inch or two ; carefully remove any thing that
buts on the surface. Put corn into other
tub, treat it in the same manner. When the corn
has reposed half an hour in the first tub, after
being well stirred, put it to Olio, in a strainer,
over the second tub,. Who it no longer drips,
plt.'ce it in a heap, and it will soon be dry enough
to sow. The effect of this solution is mote cer-
tain the. dryer the corn is before it is mixed.
