Pittsfield Advertiser: 1t is somewhat
surprising to see how some farmers will
let their work drive them. If work has
to be done how much better to push it
than to be in smart all the time. Lum-
Der that should have Eeen at the mill will
be dragged partly on bare ground; some
wood will be hauled up after the snow is
half gone. Work should be done in the
season of it, Some wood piles are all
worked up, others nearly so, and some
will last into springs work. There is a
time and season for all things. 1t is
much better to be in season than always
behind.

MAN AT THE WHEEL.

Some of the Ingenious Devices for
Navigating Great Steamer.
From Harpers Round Table.
Let us spend an hour with Capt. Randle
of the American liner ST. Louis on the
bridge in mid-ocean. He first takes us into
the wheel house. 1t is room about ten
feet wide with a curved front. A wheel
about three feet in diameter is placed in
the center of the room, and you are sur
prised to see that the quartermaster keeps
turning 1t almost constantly. You have al
ways thought that he had simply to keep
his eye on the floating compass in the box
directly in front of him and hold the ship
steady on her course. AS you look at the
compass you see the ship veering now this
way and now that she rolls and plunges,
or as one screw turns faster than the other
and thus pulls the ship around. 1t is hard
10 make two Independent screws go exactly
at the same speed, and so this man at the
wheel Is busy all the time turning the snip
straight. He has to fight the waves and
the screws and the winds at the same time
and he is a busy man.
This steering wheel controls the ship by
means of small column of oil in little
tube. By turning the wheel this way or
that the oil in the tube Is forced up or
down, and that opens or closes certain
valves in the steam steering gear 4D feet
away and the rudder is turned as easily as
II Il cnlR1 ndu done II. In most SteaHSn IpS
the steam-steering gear is controlled by hy-
draulic power-that is, by water-but the
use of a column of oil is an improvement.
AS you look about, you see fastened to
the cornice directly in front of the wheel
man little scale in black with white lines
marked off on it. There is a dial on 1t, and
as the ship rolls you see that this Is de-
vice to mark the degree of the roll. You
may notice that it takes about second
for every degree of a roll. On each side of
the room is another long black guage. and
the dials point to certain figures generally
between ninety and ninety-five. These dials
are little electrical devices, showing exactly
how many revolutions the screws are MAX
ing. The captain at a glance knows what
is going on in the engine rooms.
Over in the corner of the room Is another
curious electrical device. 1t Is little box
with a clock in it. Tire captain tells you it
is the machine that controls the whistle in
time of fog. The law requires a long blast
of the whistle at such lines every two min
utes. BY pressing a button on this little
clock apparatus and by setting the clock in
a certain manner, the whistle is blown au-
Dramatically for seven. seconds every minute.
There can be no error of man in that work.
Just as sure as every minute comes around
that whistle will blow seven seconds. Tn
der the old way. when a man pulled the
whistle cord. there was no eXactness in the
work. When the fog is over the button is
released, and the whistle stops.
