For the WEEKLY Nkwaa
Saw MIL Fiat Division, .. OFT.
Mn. EDIroR: Knowing that your paper
is widely circulated among advocates Of Tenn
perance in this county, shall deem it faver
if you will afford room in your columns for
the following account ofa visit lately made
to the Saw Mill Flat Division, No. 73, of tho
Sons of Temperance. Twas surprised to find
such spacious Hall containing so large q
company of members. and friends of the cause
of improvement. What tended much to-
wards my surprise, was the fact that this di.
vision is Of but recent organization, and n
augurs well for its usefulness to soc so MANY
young men among its members who have
thus pledged themselves to wage war agains,
the enemy of mems souls and bodies.
Another good feature of this division, is. the
established of debating society. On the
evening Of my visit. the subject under dicision
was, whether missionaries or the sword had
done most towards civilization" which wns
discussed with considerable animation. and
the missionary advocates gained the day.
After which, one Of the members sung an
original song; altogether it was the most
agreeable evening that had spent for long
time, and, l think that our friends of tho
Columbia Temperance organization, nigh,
considerably augment their usefulness, by ad.
ding some interests to their meetings; besides,
the routine Of their ceremonies by taking
pattern from the Saw Mill Flat Division.

DURABILITY OF TIIBEE.-Thc durabili-
ty of timber is almost incredible. The fol-
lowing are few examples for illustration,
being vouched for by Button, Du iIamel,
Rondelet, and others:
The piles of bridge built BY Traian,
after having been driven more than 1000
years, were found to be petrifed four inches,
the rest Of the wood being in its ordinary
condition.
The elm-piles under the piers Of London
Bridge have been in use more than 200
years. and are not yet materially decayed
Beneath the foundation Of Savory place
London, oak, elm, beech and chestnu, pile.
and planks were found in a state of perfect
preservation, after having been there 70,
$50 years.
While taking down the old walls of Tun
bridge Castle, Kent, there was found in tn,
middle Of a thick stone wall, a timber-curb
which had been enclosed for 700 years.
Some timbers Of an old bridge were dis
covered while digging for the foundations 0
a house at Ditton Park, Windsor, which an
cient records incline Us to believe wer,
placed there prior to the year 1896.
The durability of timber out Of tht
ground is even greater still The roof Q
the basilica Of St Paul at Rome, was framcc
in the year sl6, and now, after more thai
a thousand years, it is still sound and tn
original cypress-wood doors Of the SAM
building, after being in use more than 90
years, were, when replaced by others Q
brass, perfectly free from rot or decay; tn
wood retaining Its origina! odor. The tim
Der dome Of 81 Mark, at Venice, is stil

PLANTISr POTATOES IN THE FALL
Mr. +. . bundy, Of Oxford. Chenango
county y. /, writes to the Genesee Far
mer that he plants his potatoes in the fall,
and obtains larger crops, and larger, earlier
and better favored potatoes than when plan
ted in tue spring His method Of planting
Is as follows:
Select piece Of dry ground, prepare it
as for spring planting, any time in the fall
when the ground is in good order, taking
care to plant the potatoes little deeper
than in the spring planting. Throw shov.
elful Of coarse manure upon, or sill better
into each bill, or better still, cover the sur
face Of the ground with coat Of straw
where mice are not too plenty. The straw
helps to protect the potatoes. which scarcel,
need hoeing or plowing.
1 Mr.. Bundy says he has raised potatoe
in this way for several years past, and the,
are invariably free from the rot, and are tw
weeks earlier, and two or three sizes large
than in spring planting.
