What is believed 10 be the largest ar.
tiiicial waterfall i'll the world is that pro-
jected by the Southern Pacific Railway
company near Wright's station, in the
Santa Cruz mountains "a mountain
stream being made to run over and
above a railroad track and designed to
prevent the obstruction of travel by
landslides, as in times past, at the north
ern end of the long tunnel near the above
named station. This unique piece Of en-
gineering consists of an extension of the
tunnel northward 600 feet, passing the
point where the stream crosses the track
by an arch of solid masonry.
The plan of this stone tunnel presents
briefly an arch 90 feet in height, com
posed of huge blocks Of stone capable of
durably withstanding the wear and tear
Of the elements. Tho inside exhibits the
same width aud height as the tunnel
proper and is constructed in such aman-
ner as to prevent the stream Of water
flowing over from percolating through.
The top of the arch being about - feet
above the bed Of the streani, the latter is
raised up, by filling, to the proper level,
and as the stream flows over tire top of
the stone arch fall OF not less than 90
feet is produced on the other side of the
track New York Sun.

Flannel Clothing.

If dry wooden clothing be put on i'm.
mediately after exercise, the yapor from
the surface of the body is condensed in
and upon the wool. and the heat which
has become latent in the process of evap-
GRAFTON is again given off. Flannel
clothes, therefore, put on during perspi-
ration always feel warm, whereas cot
ton and linen articles allow the perspira-
ton TO pass through them, so that the
evaporation and cooling processes are
unchecked
There is therefore an obvious reason
for selecting flannel clothing for wear
ing after active exertion. Amindividual
who IS perspiring freely is far less likely
to take cold when clad in flannel than
when clad in linen or cotton. DR.. Poore
thinks that cotton might be made to ac-
quire properties similar to those Of wool
by adopting looser method of weaving
the material. If linen or cotton be woven
sin loose, porous fashion, these fabrics
then become, as heat retainers, scarcely
inferior TO wool"
Woelen fabrics cause sensation OF
warmth in virtue Of another popularity
which they possess. They often present
a rough surface. which. coming into con-
tact with the skin, causes friction and
therefore more or less warmth. The ir-
ritation thus produced is intolerable to
some persons, but if it can be borne with
for short time the skin often gets ac-
customed to the sensation -F'ortnishtly

The Farm Journal makes these notes
pertaining to the poultry yard:
Minks and weasels are cousins of the
ferrets and are bloodsuckers. They sell
dom mutilate the carcass. A cash in
the throat is the only wound they make.
If there are birds under the perches
or in the coops in the morning, with
heads and neclss gnawed off, an opossum
is probably hiding in u neighboring rail
or wood pile.
When single fowl or flock refuses
to eat the customary ration, something
is wrong, and a remedy should be imme-
diately sought. The appetite is a pretty
sure index of the state of the health of
fowls and animals as we'll as of human
beings.
While wheat is one of the best feeds
for producing eggs, it is of little value
for fattening purposes compared with
corn, as corn contains great deal of
carbonaceous or fat forming matter.
which puts on flesh in a very short time.
Chickens are like the human family in
one respect at least, for they relish a
change of food. II You take fowls that
have been fed on one kind of grain for
some time and do not have the appetite
that they should have, give them little
cooked food, such as cake made from
coarse cornmeal and meat scraps baked
together, or else some grain other than
you have been feeding, and you will see
that they will eat it ravenously.
