A VARY POWERFUL SQUAsH.-Thc
Hartford Daily Times says: The lifting
power of plants is something marvellous,
when one considers the chemic laws and
subtle principles fplant growth. The
power Of growing trees to displacc huge
rocks is often illustrated, and seldom
more strikingly than in the case
of an oak tree in South Hadlcy, Mass
This tree, says local account, is oppO-
site the residence OF Felson w. Burnett.
"A rock had seam in it, and fbrous
root from the oak crcpt into the scam,
grew, and lifted the rock, weighing over
ton, to the height cf one foot" The
thickest and heaviest OF our tagging
stones, as shown in the case of several on
Main Street, has been lifted out Of posi-
ton by the growth Of tree roots; and on
the corner Of Main and Pleasant Streets
one of these roots has thrown up the SOL
id half-foot thick flags of freestone there
imbedded. Here is an account of the &C.
ton of forces in vegetable growths in the
case of squash-the locality being AM
herst, Mass. "The sxuash in the Durfee
planthouse is now lifting 1000 pounds.
It is now ten weeks since it was harness
ed, and something has been continually
breaking loose. Five levers have been
used, each larger than the proceeding,
and set of larger irons, overlapsing the
first, was found necessary. The leverage
is curiosity, the seven weights colnpris.

From the Chicago Tribune. =
When sleeping-ca by leaping from q
bridge, rolling down. an embankment, or
other frisky behavior, forfiets public con-
fidence, it ceases to be anything at ali.
But when such coach, after deliberately
lulling a dozen or more passengers to
sleep, takes fire with the intention of Gre
mating the slumbering occupants, some
thing more should be said about it. Such
an Occurrance took place last week on the
Georgia Railroad, near Stone Mountain
The passengers in the Sleeper were rude
ly reused by the discovery that their
goods and chattlcs, including certain ar
ticles Of raiment which society as well
as the weather made Indispensable, were
in flames, and that successful exit from
the furnace in which they were travelling
was about as much as they could hope for.
Among those who were rescued from tne
flames was Judge King, President of the
road. 1t seemed like u special dispense
ton of Providence to place him in the
midst of this blazing fiery furnace. He
had a satchel with him containing bonds
and money valued at $4,000 and these
were consumed. Unfortunately the old
gentleman lost his senses as we'll as his
money, and was carried out more dead
than alive The car WAS total wreck,
and the property Of the passengers all de.
stroycd. If by some clever providence
railroad Presidents, Superintendent, and
other officials could more frequently be
involved in the pcrils and dangers Of the
road, there can be no question that the
statistics of railroad accidents would
show great dimiuntion in q short time

sheep Troughs and Racks.

We have insisted upon the impor-.
tancs of furnishing good troushs aud
racks for feeding whether under shelter
or in open air. Where lumber is cheap
and plenty, there will be NO difficulty
in 30 doing. In 4 wooded country,
troughs may be quickly made by any
one who is handy with an ax by split
ing any soft wood log of suitable size,
following it smoothly out, boring four
holes for legs and placing it where
wanted.
Watering troushs are easily made
thus, except that larger logs are used
and only about one.third the diameter
Of the log is FIRST hewed away, before
hewing out the trough. Legs should
not be put in the water troughs unless
they are small, since they will be apt to
split and leak, but proper bearings and
clasps should be placed under them to
raise them to the equired heighth:
10 make rack select good white oak
pole. six inches ia diameter. Peel the.
bark and bore one and one-half inch
holes sl.nting inwards, Rive out suit
able pieces, two feet long, smooth them
and 1T the ends 10 that they may be
driven tight; put legs to it 50 that it
may he Of proper heighth and you will
have q rack that for all practical pur-
poses will be a. good IS the best.
