the PUBLIC HEALTH.
Uptown Nuisanccs.


The Board OF Health, after much prompting by
the press ana the public. have been forced to ener
gelic action. In the case Of the greater nuisance Of
them all-the New York Rendering Company-whicn
denle the atmosphere about Thirty-eighth street.
North river, the hearing was completed before Rel
cree Howley yesterday, and taken as whole was
very damaging The HERALD has time and again
exposed the dangers to health from this pestiientia
establishment, and the Board Will hardly venture TO
outrage pusilc sentiment and public smell ny per-
hitting II to continue a day longer than they can
legally abOlsh II.
In the case OF the vacant lots between Thirty
fourth and Thirtyslxth Streets east OF First ave-
nue., where disease h created by the collection or
decayed matter and other Nth, the Board on ednes
day made an order for the lots TO be tlled up.
Another, and one Of the most outrageous nui-
sances. has existed for long time at 10th street
aud Eighth avenue. There are some twenty-sS va
cant lots much lower than the street level where the
stagnant waters anu drainage OF the Lion brewery
have collected and I'll the with foul sienches that
XIII. An order has been made compelling the owner,
Mr. Wilkins, OF Westchester county, TO I'LL them up
TO The street level with new earth.
Between Tnirty-frst and Thlrty-third streets
east vi FIRST avenue are also number OF vacant
iOts where deoris OF various kinds has been allowed
10 collect Tor months. An order has been made to
have them ted in with two and half feet OF fresh
earth.
In The case OF Pinner's grease boiling establish
meDt on Forty seventh street, east NJ Fist avenue
order was made 10 have IL aDaed; the defendants
obtained a hearing before the referee ano the evil
dence ls all IN. IL Will be submitted 10 the Board al
Its next meeting.
One Of the greatest causes OF the non abatement
OF nuisanccs Is found IN tue temertY OF the Board OF
Health. When an order Is made to abate nuisance
the defendants threaten legal proceedings, and the
Board yield 10 hearing before referee, whose evil
dence can be manufactured to order. Delay Is
caused and not unlrequenty the Board IN alarm re-
Their previous action.

When 20 Cut Timber.

Mr. SKINNER, Of Little Falls, y. Y, re-
Gently stated that he always cut timber
when il was frozen, in order that II might
last long time without decay. He was
aware that other seasons of the year We're
recommo nded, He had iried all seasons
and with number of varieties Of wood,
and no timber lasted so wen as that cut
in the winter when frozen. He said a
hemlock stick used as 4 stringer for
bridges would last longer when the bark
was lel on. Had observed il often, and
gave as a reason that the bark kept the
wood moist He thought the best timber
for sills, or for building purposes, was red
elm; next in order was oak, white elm
and red beach. For pins, the raves OF
wood sleds, and holsters 10 wagons, there
was no timber he preferred 10 red elm,
