AMysterious Iron-Clad Room.

In addition to the other Improvements
which are being made by the Chinese in
their section of the city is one particu-
larly TO be noticed on the southeast
corner of Washington street and Waverly
place. This building is constructed OF
brick and iron, and from its exterior APP
rearance adds much 10 the dignity of
Chinese structures. But this is not all
that is peculiar about this building. In
one room, the entry to which is on Wa.
verify place, the walls are lined with one
eighth. inch sheet iron. The street door
is also covered with the same material,
which is bolted and riveted through
three inch blocks, the whole making a
formidable barricade against the entry of
tn ewes. police or other persons having
no business with the occupants. In ad-
dition to all this the vestibule on both
sides, as also that portion over the en-
trnce, is lined and bolted with the same
substantial metal. The interior Of the
Ioom is fitted up with concealed trap
doors in the foor, aud there are several
neatly finished and concealed openings
in one of the walls about large enough
TO permit a man to pass through. To
what purpose this building is to be de-
voted is not made public San Franeiseo

Telling and Seasoning Timber.

While the durability of timber does
not wholly depend on the time when it
is cut, the latter has in most cases an in
fluence in its preservation that should
cause the telling to be done at that sea-
son when there is the least fermentable
sap in the tree. This would indicate
winter as the proper time, and of the
winter months December might fairly
have the preference, not only as fully
meeting this requisite, but also in or,
dinarily being more agreeable time for.
outdoor work than the succeeding ones.
Much timber is lost for lack of care after
it is cut, by which not only is the ma
terial wasted, but an additional eXpen-'
diture of labor is required in replacing.
what might have lasted longer had it
been felled at the right time and prop
erly seasoned before it was used. Espe-
cially will this be the case with timber
cut in the sap and used for posts or
placed in contact with the ground while
in a green state.
To prevent the growth of ferments or
fungi in the sap, which leads to decay,
the sap must be dissolved, leached out
or dried out, and some measure adopted
to prevent moisture from re entering the
wood. Where thoroughly dried wood
is used for posts in the ground they will
last much longer than green, for the rea-
son that with hard wood it will be a con
siderable time before moisture from the
soil has penetrated them thoroughly,
and then it will not be as active in caus-
! ing decay as the original sap. Persons
| sometimes use paint, mineral oils, or
| gas-tar on posts not thoroughly seasoned,
I but the practice of coating badly sea-
soned timber with any substance will
hasten decay instead of preventing it.
There are many complicated and eX-
pensive ways by which wood may he
preserved that are within the reach of
manufacturers, but, ordinarily the
farmer cannot avail himself of such, and
should seek the best methods for natural
preservation by avoiding practices that
lead to natural decay. Timber that is
kept housed, entirely dry and away from
the influence Of humid atmosphere,
will last almost indefinitely, but the siIls
and lower joists of buildings, although
perfectly protected from rain, will, un-
der certain conditions, often be found
after few years eaten up with dry rot
first appearing in white patches and
afterward changing to darker shades
This is occasioned by dampness and I
close, confined air, owing chiefly to
want of proper ventilation. Timbe
kept entirely submerged in deep water
OF in a deep soil, excluded from tn
atmosphere, practically will not decay
This has been demonstrated by the
occasional finding of trees in the depth
of an alluvium, where they had bee
buried probably for sges.-Ne'o lor

FARM AND GARDEN.
Utilizing Cobs and Husks.

When the corn is shelled the cobs are
worth caring for for various useful pur-
poses. They make the best fuel for the
smokehou,e, giving the hams and bacon
a delicate and agreeable favor, free from
the pungeucy of oak and other wood
which contains much acid. When
stepped in kerosene oil they make good
kindling for fires, and they are equally
good for this purpose when saturated
with solution of one pound of saltpeter
in two gallons of water, and dried. They
then burn tiercoly, giving out quick
heat suRicient to kindle a coal fire
But they are also good for feeding, as
they contain as much nutriment as straw,
and where straw is scarce the whole ears
may be ground together with advan-
tage The huSks are still more nu-
tritious, and may be ground up with the
ears in appropriate mills made for the
purpose. For feeding stock cattle and
for fattening car corn in the husk is an
exceedingly cheap and desirable food. -

Cost of Growing Wheat in Russia

As Russia is a close competitor with
us in growing wheat it is interesting to
learn the actual cost of producing this
grain in that country. A Russian agri-
cultural expert gives a somewhat aston
ishing account of the cost of wheat
growing in the province of Riga. With
such prices as he gives, the statement of
the RI ssian Minister OF Agriculture,
that wheat growing, as a rule, has not
paid at recent prices, seems almost in
credible. He states that three acres OF
wheat costs him less than $50 to grow,
while the produce, 10 bushels per acre,
realized S35, leaving a profit of Sl5 on
the three acres, after paying rent and all
other expenses. The low cost of produc-
tion is accounted for by the wages paid
TO laborers, regular hands getting only
II cents q day, and extra men, in sum
mer, 20 cents day for II hours work,
exclusive of mealtimes. AS for horses
keep, it is put DOWN at 10 cents a day,
grass land being free, so that horses cost
nothing during the summer. The cart
ing and spreading Of fertilizer are put at
IS cents an acre, two piowings at 21
cents each, harvesting at Is cents, and
thrashing at 33 cents. The heaviest
amounts are those charged for rent and
taxes, n cents an acre, and for seed S1.4l.
Management repairs of buildings, re
pairs and renewal Of machinery are all
charged in the total, but not interest on
capital. .-NeD Iorb Times.

The Woman's Christian Temperance Union
has never stated that its membership was
exactly 200, 900, more or less, but has believed
this to be fair estimate, being under rather
than over the number of its roll call. IL Is
we'll known that in all phil6nthroplc socie-
ties the entire membership never pays the
annual fee. Absence, illness, neglect ana
many other reasons will account for this
The small sum OF fifty cents which is an
nually charged by most unions is not regu-
larly paid by percentage of the members,
and a treasurer is hardly likely TO go around
and collect it, But 300 900 members, and
probably fifty thousand besides are IN the
direct following OF the w. {. I. u, and II
we add TO these the well nigh 200 600 IN the
Bands of Hope, with the Young Womans
Christian Temperance Unions, and the men
who are honorary members of these societies,
all strictly related TO the Nmte hlupoh
movement We shall have total OF certainly
not less than half a million directly inter
ested and loyal to that organic form OF the
woman's crusade, better known as the
Woman's Christian Temperance Union

Progressiveness of Alcohol Habit

There is a deep significance in the express
SIGN oil the popular phrase when describes
morbid passion as growing upon the habit OF
its victim. Three grains OF opium suffice 10
stimulate legnner, yet confirmed opium
eaters have been known to require dose OF
eighty grains. Betel-nut chewers begin with
tickling the tip of their tongue, and come TO
banker for whole mouthfui OF their acrld
weed. HashCesh eaters, after the end OF a
wear have to satisfy their craving with more
