LOCOMOTIVES WITHOUT STEAM.-
The London papers publish an ac-
count of what is known as the Walker
substitute for coal in the generation OF
steam foI locomotives or marine en-
gines Thi> plan, it appears, covers
an arrangement by which air is con
verted into hydrocarbon gas of great
heating power, and is then stored in a
cham Der subjected to consider able
pressure. From this it is forced out
again, Trough a pipe to the perforated
tubes, from which combustion takes
place in the furnace and by burning
hvdrocarbons-with the gas-in a
gaseous or much divided state without
the adjunct of external heat tC gaslfy
or divide them. The heavy oils, in
this divided or gasified state-burn over
the CRATE in conjunction with the
hvdrocarbon gas. The principle, as
thus explained, is regarded as of ex-
treme simplicity, and the practical ar
rangements are said to be equally so,
insuring a certainty of operation. and,
in fact, reducing the question of pre-
ference to one of cost and convenience
merely. The comparison for storage
room and economy in this case, is
shown in the following data, namely
That if the calOriiic power of coal per
pound be estimated at 5000 calorific
units, then that of liquid hydrocarbon
per pound must be taken at l3 600
units which gives an advantage, weight
for weight. of 635 in heating power,
to liquid hydro carbon, compared
with coal. Again. in the combustion
of coal, as carried out in the usual
constr uctiOn of boilers and fire CRATES,
only a very small proportion OF the
heat theoretically developed can be
made use of. while 10y the use of burn
ing gas hydrocarbon, in a gaseous
form. close home to the heating sur
faces, it is claimed that much great
er peicentage of useful evaporation is
secured.

OVER 81 BUSHELS OF WHEAT FROM
ONE ACRE.-The Reading Tunes and
Dispatch says: Ezra f. Griesemer and
Solomon DeTurck, two Oley farmers,
have just returned from trip to Ian
caster county, viii her they went o
look :nto the new plan of cultivating
wheat. The wheat is sOwn in rows
four inches il. width and eleven inches
apart, giving sufficient room to run
the cultivator through in the spring of
the year, very much like l. oe harrow
ing corn. The culLivatOr is n simple
arrangement which is attached to the
drill and worked by two horses, who
walk between the rows of wheat The
wheat is worked in this way just as
soon as the frost leaves the ground
and afterwards about the twentieth of
April again, when 3he clover and timo
thy are sown The results of this
new plan of cultivating wheat were
81 bushels and l5 pounds to the acre
last year, and the promise the coming
harvest Is in every respect rs bright
The straw is 6 20 6 fee: ! inch high,
and the heads of wheat from 4 to Al
inches in length. Mr.. Griesemer
thinks that without any eXa9geration
the yield OF wheat will he forty five
bushels to the acre The clover and
timothy are also men ioned as very
fine, being much better than when
sOwn under the PRESENT way. The
farm visited 10y Mrssrs, Griesemer and
DcTurck is owned and worked bv
Levi w. Croft near Bareville.
