WOODEN CIsrERNs--Twenty- years ago, last
spring, the late Harvey Tutte, of Forthil, in this
town, constructed cistern in the following man
ner: He built large tub-six feet high and six
feet in diameter of inch and quarter pine plank
for floor stuff-the slaves five or six wide and
iointed, made it I" set work as coopers called it
and hoped it with wooden hoops. He then dug
a round hole in the ground under his woodshed,-
little larger than the ub,--made good mortar
bed OF clay, (not loan and spread good coat
of this mortar all over the bottom of the hole
The tub was then set pressed down on this NOR
tar, and the mortar stamped or pounded, in around
the inside of the tub, and the whole then covered
with boards. 1t has never had penny's worth
of repair, has never needed any-has never leaked,
the frost does not inure it, and only the top of the
slaves show any signs of decay. 1t has lately
been cleared out, and, for aught that appears,
may last another % years,-and the water does
not become hard by long standing, as in cement

kept up, but as they come down elsewhere like
