TO conveying water from q well located
ESQ feet from where the water is wanted,
Ohio Farmer illustrates the two plans
following: The first Of these is to run
pipe from the bottom of well, A, as
shown in Fig. 1, to pump, b, which ex-
tends about four feet below the surface so
as TO be below frost and give working room
for valve. The excavation beneath tho
pump, in case the soil is not sufficiently
loose and porous to admit Of water read
lily leaking away, is to be filed with stono
or gravel two or three feet In depth, as
shown in cut. The water referred to is
that which would escape from leak
valve inthe pump just below the surface,
a very important feature where frost is
troublesome. If no trouble is feared from
this source, then make the excavation
only about four feet. At y is placed
small air chamber to act as o cushion to
the water in starting and stopping, on
account of the quantity TO be moved and
stopped at eachstrok of the pump handle.
The working of the pump will, aside
from the length OF volume and conse-
quent friction, be as easy as it would
were it to be placed in a well directly
under it and with water standing within
FIVE feet of the surface, i. O., when the
water is, aa stated, ten feet deep in the
well at A.

4 Substitute ror TiIs.

A Vermont correspondent tells in the
New England Homestead that those who
have undertaking to do and are not
able TO get tile viii find a very good sub
stitute in boxes made of fir or hemlook
inch lumber. 1t will last lifetime
where the subsoil is clay or hard pan.
For main drains have 5-inch sides
and finch tops, and for laterals 3-inch
sides and 4inch tops. The boxes can
be of any length, and from eight to
twelve inches does very well. For
the under side of the box put on
cleats six inches wide at each end and
in the middle. Have the drain dug SO
that there will be no dead water. In
laying the boxes sink the cleats down to
the level Of the bottom Of the drain. In
filing the drain pack in the subsoil first,
