BUILT ON A ROCK.
\ Persian Town That Can Only Be En-
 tered Across Chasm.


 The town of lczd-i-khast, in Persia, is built on the top of long, lofty rock, rising up in the center of narrow ra- vine-a truly historical ravinc-w which in bygone ages was portion of tho boundary line between the two king doms of the MedCs and Pcrsians and which now divides the two provinces of Persia of Ears and Irak Adjomi, the scene of many bloody conflict, even within the memory of man.
 There is gradual ascent in q south erly direction from the post-house, which is situated at the northern end of the rock; we passed by enclosures for tho cattle of the community and deep caves, where the newly born of goats and sheep were skipping and blcating, until at the south end of the rock a spot is reached where the ground is so high that by q rickety bridge you can cross a chasm, and enter the town through a hole in the wall; in former years there was a draWbridge, now there is only a frail thing made of trees, which requires a good head and firm step to cross This is the only approach to the town.
 Just before you step on to the bridge therc is small square enclosure for public prayers it k the great meeting place of thc town. and toward sunset on the first day of the year it was so crowd. ed by worShipcrs that there was not nearly room for them all, and they had to make their proStrationS in their turn Every body appeared to be dressed in new clothcs. for no Persian. however poor, would enter on new year without some new garment. and they all looked particularl, clean, for it is the custom on the day before the feast for every one to go to the bath, to have his hail dyed black, and his nails dyed yellow with henna.
 never saw more dismal spot in my life than the interior of Nczd-i-khast, One long street like tunnel with occa sional glimp~eS of the upper air, runs from one end of the rock to the other. As you enter the gateway the chilly atmosphere of a vault strikes upon you.
 The gatekcepcr was in his hole to the right. behind the door, which he shuts at night n hole not large enough to lie down i'm lie was crouching over char coal brazicr. on which simmcrod a coffee pot he is a blcar-cycd, ragged old man, who looks as if hc was in perpetual shiyer and as if he was immurcd alive in tomb which any respectable corpse would reject with scotn.
 As we stumbled along in the dark we nearly fell over an{ old woman selling dried grapv~ and dher luxurias, using as weights round sroncs and shells in a pair of scales which any inspector would condemn ath',i sight Urber Land Gnd Nicer.

which the sheep pass their heads for the fodder in the rack; ( . are the long boards; cr, flat bottom; q d. inclined bot tom, and ee slats. The flat boards are about inches wide, and the inclined ones, q q, are II inches. The length of this rack will correspond with the length of the boards used in constructing it, and it will feed about two small sheep for every foot of running length, but for large sheep about 16 inches are re- quired.
 A modification of this rack is made by covering tight with boards the part of the slats over the heads of the sheep, thus preventing the hayseed from dropping down on their heads and wool. An advantage is likewise gained by separating the spaces for the sheep from each other by mailing an inch board upright for each space, leaving seven inches opening for each sheep, and thus allowing sixteen inches for each which would be required for large breeds. (The upright boards at each end would of course be only half as wide as the others.)
 Fig. 3 represents another rack, having
Nevada County picayune., 1890-03-12

some advantages over the one just de- scribed. The front, from which the sheep feeds, is vertical, so that the hay seed can not fall into the wool.
 The back side is boarded tight, and has slope for the hay to fall down against the rack. The feeding trough is in front and separate, So as to be turned over for cleaning. The attendant walks behind and fills the space with hay.
 Another and more elaborate sheep rack is represented by Fig. I, the con struction of which is shown in sections by Figs. , and 6. In both these cross sections A A are the feed boxes; E and D D the timbers receiving each ends of
