Greenback Statuary,

There is one industry in Washington
that has no match anywhere else. and
there is but one man engaged in it.
He is crippled veteran, and he makes
statuary out of the macerated pulp of
WORKOUT greenbacks. When our paper
currency becomes useless from W ar
and tear it is macerated, and this man.
one day, out of idle curiosity, modelled
a piece of this plastic stuff into the
image of dog.
1t was not long before he had little
shop Of his own, and there he made his
hrst Mst, one of Lincoln, taking a
photograph as a copy. Since then he
has made busts of Washington, Grant,
Lee Logan, Arthur and many Others.
FIRST he makes a clay model, and
around this he places soft plaster-o.-
paris. When the plaster hardens, he
digs out the clay, and into the plaster
mold he pounds the greenback pulp.
AS may be supposed, this statuarv
bnds ready sale. In addition to the
statues being good likenesses, it is
quite novelty to possess piece of
statuary composed of material that
once represented hundred thousand
collars more or less. 4 Golden Daus

Paris Sewage Farms.

The municipal council of Paris has
recently authorized an extension OF the
sewage irrigation of farms making a
total area of over 1900, 900 acres. In
Gennevilliers !. 500 acres are irrigated,
out this area belongs to farmers and
gardeners who pay for the sewage.
The owners of another tract covering
1000 acres are now negotiating with
the city for delivery of sewage. The
new farms at Acheres will at present
consist of 1000 acres of sterile land
which the City of Paris will rent from
the State. The City of Mery-sur-Oise
owns 1900 acres, Is miles from Paris
and these are to be a. once arranged
for the reception of the Paris sewage.
Beside the above area the farmers of
Gennevilliers and Saint German de-
sire to prepare $500 acres for the re-
ception of sewage. During the present
year, therefore, the irrigated land
will amount to perhaps 5000 acres
1t is strange. says our authority, that
notwithstanding this demand for sew
age by the farmers. there are still per-
sons who cry out against 1.-THE poison
ing of the atmosphere about Paris.
The amount of sewage created annu-
ally is about y 100000 Gu. M. the
amount which is to be disposed of by
irrigation is l, 900 Gu. m. per annum
per acre. Therefore the above 900
acres will suffice for the entire quanti-
ty of sewage. Engineering NeWs.
