Low, Flat Land.

There was man and his name was Brown,
And he lived about mile and half from
town;
And this here feller he was awfully down
In the mouth, for his crap was hken for to
drown,
Becuz his eighty was low, fiat land.
His very midrif it aked and panied
And he notised how the weather rained and
rained.
And his drafted eighty it couldn't be drained,
gained,
And the tadpoles threatened for to take that
land.
If cloud came up as big as a gourd,
Why that was enuff, and it ripped and roared
AS if all the water that ever wuz stored
Since the days of Noah, had suddenly poured
On that miserable eighty OF low, fiat land.
The weather buro was all in a muss,
And instid of Citing better, the weather got
wuSS;
And Brown lowed he wouldn't raise nuthin
but
PusIey, and he didn't do nuthin hut cuss
And NOPE round the edge of that low. fiat land.
But Misses Brown she usen for to smile,
And she sed she thought it want wIth while
For a human to let their temper spie,
When Providence wanted for to moisten the
sile,
And so. while Brown he pozed and slumped,
His wife she want partikle stumpt,
And into the weeds this woman she jumped,
And all summer long she fairly bumped
Herself TO make crap on that low, HAT land.
And when the corn-gatherin time came round
Instid of the crap AL gittin drowned,
Thar wuz sixty to the aker on that low, flat
ground;
And Brown Sed he reckoned as how he found
1t wuz more in the woman than it wuz in the
land.

The Utilization of Iron Stag.

The Chemical News notes the exhibi
tion at the Paris Exhibition, OF the pro
ducts OF a new industry in connection
with the utilization of Stag from iron
blast furnaces Before a method was dis
covered OF converting this subs stance into
W that is known as mineral wool, many
attempts had been made to utilize this
product, which covers so many acres OF
once fertile ground IN the iron districts
As it is it is generally considered as so
much waste it has been broken up for
road paving or made into blocks for
building purposes, but as the product
will not pay for its own transport, only a
small quantity can be employed, and that
only in the neigh hborhood OF iron works.
Several persons have tried making glass
OF it, and have succeeded by adding the
constituents that were wanting; but to
get the Stag to condition in which the
matter can combine, it has TO be iquefied
by heat, which involves a very great ex
pense After many experiments, Mr.
Britten has succeeded in utilizing the
material, and also the heat from the fur
naces and an English company has been
formed to work his patent. The com
pany has erected glass works in North
amptOnshire, close to a set of blast furna
ces, and they are now in operation. The
Stag flows into a tank at one end. and is
there mixed with the required ingre
dients for making the glass, fused, and
fined the melted metal then flows thro'
a bridge to the other end of the tank,
where it is worked, and atterward blown
into bottles. etc. As the slag is already
melted, it does not require so great
heat for the combination with the other
substances, and also it furnishes more
than hall the material of the glass Thus
the glass costs less than that made by the
ordinary method The natural tint of
the product is greensh, but it can be
bleached or colored at will. The furnace
now at work produces ninety gross of
bottles a day. 1t can readily be seen
that it will be cheaper tor ironmasters to
have glass works attached to their own
works, as the cost will not be so much as
the alwsys increasing cost OF ground to
dispose of their Stag on Scientific
American.
