Steel Plates For Boilers.

Tho progress made in engineering is
notably exhibited in the fact that Of
late years iron plates for the construc-
ton CT boilers have been almost entire
ly superseded by homogeneous steel
plates, these having a greater tensile
strength than iron plates and a greater
elasticity and ductility. The standard
tests now require tensile strength Of
from 50, 600 to so, 600 pounds per square
jneh-that is, the quality Of the steel
plate is required to be such that bar
one inch square would neGessitate a
force of 60,o0o pounds to pull it asun-
der, and i'll such process the ductility OF
the steel would cause it 10 stretch some
what, so that at the point of fracture
there wcu!d be marked reduction of
area in the bar, the amount of this re-
duction deciding in a great measure the
quality of the steel as adapted to boiler
construction. In making specifications
fer boilers, therefore, especially for
high pressures. it has come to be a con-
dition that the steel plates shall be of
tie above named tensile strength per
squa-a ZACH. AID that the reduction of
aiea at the point of fracture under a
est like the above shall be not less than
IS per oeut--tLat.is, the metal stretched
under tho test or strain SO that on break
ing. it WIS less than one-half the orig
inai area Of the lar. Such tests deter
niue The qualify aud ability of the steel
plates when laade up into boiler to
adjust themselves to tie expansion and
correction of the metal caused by the
varying temperatures to which the boil
Ell is subjected when it is set up and
put III use.

Honest but Cute Yankee.

There is funny case of international
honesty down in Arizona, just on the
line between that territory and Mexico.
A Yankee farmer lives there, one Anna
so Barrow by name, and it is his bust
ness to raise chickens. Chicken feed is
cheap in Mexico and chickens bring fine
prices in Arizona, but to raise fowls in
Mexico and bring them across the bound
ary or to buy the feed and bring it
across, would involve the payment of a
considerable duty, which would eat the
profits about as fast as the hens could
eat the corn. AS for smuggling, that
was not to Ee thought of.
Amasa is Yankee, and he Is so hon.
est that his ueighbors say he wouldn't
take advantage Of man in a horse
trade. But he is also full of Yankee in
genuity. and after deep cogitation he
built long, slim hencoop, one-half of
it in Arizona and the other in Mexico.
On the line there is a gate. Over the
line there are barns containing feed.
At feeding time the gate is opened, and
the chicken fancier Shoes his flock into
Mexico, where they eat their meal.
Then he Shoes them back to the protec-
ton of the American flag, where they
digest this Mexican grain. lay their
eggs and carry on their family affairs.
Mr.. Barrow saves about 80 per cent on
his grain and makes about that much
on his chickens, and if there is any
smuggling done it is done by the inno-
cent and irresponsible biddies. Wash

SAILED TIE COW TO A FAIR.
And This Cape Colder Captain Got First
Prize In q Special Class.

And This Cape Colder Captain Got First
Prize In Special Glass.
When was down on Cape Cod, I
heard an amusing story about an old
sea captain and his cow Captain Pat
terson. after sailing the sea for more
than 40 years, finally retired to little
farm near Barnstaple, where he settled
down, with horse, COW and two or
three dozen hens. His COW, though a
lank and rather stubborn creature, was
said to come from very good stock, and
when the Barnstaple people took it into
their heads to have fair Captain Pat
terson determined to exhibit his COW.
But when the day came for driving
her to the grounds the COW showed that
she had mind Of her own and would
not bulge step beyond the farmyard
gate. In vain the old captain tugged at
the rope, pnmmeled her sides and push
ed her tanks. The COW wanted to go
to pasture and was bound she wouldn't
60 to the fair.
Captain Patterson's patience was
very nearly gone, when suddenly an
idea occurred to him. Though he was
not strong enough himself to force the
COW to go to the fair his training sug-
gested something that was. Tying the
COW to the gatepost, he went up into
the loft OF his barn and threw down an
old sail stepped to dory mast. Then
he put horses blanket belt through an
iron ring, strapped the belt around the
COW, inserted the end of the mast in the
ring and bound the mast to the side of
the COW with some so feet of rope.
The wind blew 'quartering," and
when the captain united the COW and
raised the sail the canvas swelled out
over the COW S back, and away she went
"sidling" down the road, mooing and
plunging and trying to stop herself in
vain. Captain Patterson seized her tail,
and using it as a rudder guided her
skillfully in the right direction With
every fresh puff of wind the obstinate
COW would lie hurried along faster,
while the Gu:t blew up in clouds and
the sail farped and tugged as Captain
Patterson held &c the mainsheet with
one hand and the cows tail with the
other.
1t was hard voyage for both Of
them, but not a long one, and when
they came IL sight Of the fair ground
everybody ri.l cut to see the remarkable
sight of cow being sailed through the
streets like g ship. Cheers and laughter
filed the cir, and when the captain
finally whiried his COW around at the
gate of the fair ground and brought her
neatly cup into the wind" the shout
that arose might have been heard two
miles away.
Unfortunately Captain Patterson s
COW did net take one of the prizes for
blooded stock, but the captain himself
was given special prize by the fair
commissioners for ''the best advice for
getting balky cattle to market. Out
look.

Yellow Alaska Cedar.

The durability Of this timber is forci-
bly, illustrated by fallen trunks that are
perfectly sound after lying in the damp
woods for centuries. Soen after these
trees fall they are overgrown with moss,
in which seeds lodge and terminate and
grow up into vigorous saplings. which
stand in row Oh the backs Of their
dead ancestors OF this company Of
young trees perhaps three OF four will
grow to full stature, sending down
straddling roots on each side and estab-
fishing themselves in the soil, and after
they have reached an age of 200 or 800
years the dcwntrodden trunk on which
they are standing, when cut into, is
found as fresh in the heart as when it
fell. John Muir in Century.
