WHETHER a hard winter in Eng
and, Scotland and the north of Eur
ope necessarily means a season OF
floods in France. Italy and Austria,
has rot yet been determined as a mat
ter of fact, but several such instances
have occurred IN recent years, though,
perhaps, not enough to establish a
rule. Heavy snow in northern Eur
opo means heavy rains in the south
ern part, and these are the direct
cause of the foods now ravaging parts
Of France, Spain and Austria.

with apparatus and platforms that all
persons committed as tramps and va
grants can be placed therein, and
when the water is turned on be COM

CONSIDERABLE attention has been
lately directed to the commercial and
industrial value, at least prospectively,
OF the tupelo gum and willow oak
timbers of Mississippi, After various
and thorough tests the first named
has been pronounced almost as soft
and light as cork, and the whitest
timber in the valley. It is extremely
light. cannot be split, while at the
same time is very tough, tenacious,
and viii bear 81 heavy strain, its var
ious qualities rendering it specially
valuable for buckets, pitchers, trays,
ox-yokes, and almost all kinds of
water vessels, as we'll as for many
other purposes. The water or willow
oak is said to be second only to the
live oak, is almost as hard when sea-
soned as is the latter, and for the rim
and spokes OF wheels is almost to
have no superior, while for shipbuild-
ing it will almost equal the live oak
in its frmness and durability. Tests
have been made OF the crushing cap
acity of this wood, and also of It's
transverse strength, with remarkably
favorable results, the published data
showing that it is one-third stronger
than any white, red, or black oak, and
only one-eight less than live cen oak.

cultivated and manufactured at O.

coming crop promises them heavy
