ment, hoping il may encourage some
farmer whois struggling with bottom
land and water, to try his upland for

cal demonstrations, know the truth
concerning its value or worthlesness.
We know most men who speak dis
paragingly of it do SO wholly upon

To Make ClO'h, Paper, etc. Fireproof.

Sevcra, preparations for rendering textile

are of an inexpensive nature, and capable OF

other fabrics of cotton and other fbrOu-
materials, paper, printed or otherwise

The first composition, which may be aP

phate of ammonia, (pure) kilos; Carbonate
of ammonia, % kilos; Boracc acid, 3 kilos
Borax pure, II kilos; Starch, kilos; Wa

1t is simply necessary to steep the fabrics II

after which they are drained and dried suifi

A second composition, to he used for thea

piled hot with brush like ordinary paint. i
Is composed of: Boracic acid, } kilOs; Hy

MEASUREMENT or OPEN STREAMS In
many cases 1t is impossible TO construct even
temporary wastc-bOard or Weir Almost
every man has about HIM in his daily walk
sufficient apparatus for tolCpbly accurate cs-
innate OF the quantity OF water flowing in any
stream. y walking-stck, a iack-knlic and a
watch Crowded the waking.sticK is just three
feet long, are all the tools necessary for the
purpose. Take Il section Of the stream rs uni
form in breadth and depth rs possible, and
measure off upon It's bank some definite length,
say from one to four hundred feet, according
to the rapidlty of the water; set stake close
to the water at each end OF this section, then
throw into the water opposite the upper stake,
Il green tW;g or limb Of tree, or other object
OF such specific gravity, rs to nearly but not
quite sink, and Of such size that one portion
shall remain at the surface while another por.
ton nearly touches bottom, the object beng
to get the average speed of the water. The re
sistancc caused by the bed and banks of the
stream neccssitate some care in this part Of the
experiment Note accurately the time the oh,
| jeCt is passing from stake to stake, and repeat
the operation several times and at as many
points towards the opposite shore; the sum of
the several times divided by the number Of
points at which the speed was taken gives the
average speed of the water. Now measure the
stream. The sum of these depths divided by
the number Of points at which the depth was
measured gives the average depth this aver
age depth multiplied by the breadth Of the
stream gives the area of the cross section; this
area multiplied by the length of the section
gives the cubic contents Of the body of water
embraced in the section. Thus we have the
quantity and its velocity, which are elements
necessary to show the value Of Il stream for
manufacturing purposes, provided it has sui.
ficient fall anywhere to render it available.
Allowing slxty-two pounds for each cubic foot
of water, and Il supply OF one thousand cubic
feet per minute, and fall of ten feet we have
1000 multiplied by 60, equals $4,000 pounds

Longwool sheep are easily chilled by a cold
rain that would not trouble a Southdown or

lection from rain-storm; although the weather
may not be very cold An open shed in the

yards at night, sheep should not be shut up;
they require abundant ventilation, and cannot
be crowded with impunity IN close quarters
