BIGGEST WHEAT FIELD.

The largest single wheat field in the
world is now being planted with. gram.
1t covers over 25 200 acres or 40 square
miles. This enormous field of grain is on
the banks of the San Joaquin river, near
the town of Clovis, in California.
To get an idea of the enormous size OF
this great wheat field let us imagine that
one man had to handle the crops. If such
were possible, how long would it take
him? Suppose the field was one mile
long, and the man had a pillow cutting a
furrow "a inches wide. He would start
at a corner of the field and pillow a dis
lance of 40 miles. hen he would come
back and cut another furrOW, making
so miles for the round trip.
This amour of work would only be a
tiny scratch for four feet wide along one
side of the 40-mile field, and the process
would have to be repeated at least 1900
times. making a total distance of about
105, 600 miles.
Suppose that the ploWman worked at
the rate of 20 miles a day. TIC get over
the los, 900 miles would take $3.50 days.
To plant would take about the same time,
making a total of &c. 800 days, or nearly
80 years. 1t would be like spending a
lifetime, and the distance travelled would
be equivalent to going round the world
four times.

lAVIGNE-SM|TH
FIGHT TONIGHT

San Francisco, March 1O.-"Kid' La
vigne and Mysterious Billy Smith will
meet tonight in this city in a 2O-round
contest at 142 pounds or under. Smith
will just come within the limit, while
Lavigne says he will not weigh over 1856
pounds at the ringside. Both men are in
perfect condition and a hot battle is
looked for. The betting today is ever
money and take you choice, but it is
thought by the oracles of affairs pugilis-
tic that Smith will be a slight favorite at
the rlngside, because of his recent sue
cesses in New York and the impression
that Lavigne is going outside his class
in taking on Smith. Lavigne was never
better, however, and if he does not win
he will certainly make a stubborn fight.

PLUMB LINE.

Doubtless the longest plumb line in ex-
istence is that suspended in the Washing
ton monument, which has a free swing OF
more than $40 feet. 1t is of hard drawn
copper Wire, 1854 inch in diameter, and is
suspended, for protection, in a galvanized
iron pipe. The wire is located in a plane
cutting the center of gravity of the onu-
ment, which is ia feet 1912 inches above
the door sill. The plummet was set June
II, 1887, with the top end of the wire fast
ened 10 an adjustable brass screw in an I
beam about 10 feet from the west wall.
In the plummet house (Which is riVeted
to the vertical protecting pipe), at the
base is a hollow iron pedestal, one side of
which is fitted with a door for access to
the interior, where stands a bucket of
water in which the bob" a 25-pound
brass spheroid, swings. On top of the ped
estal are two telescopes, one on the north
side facing south and one on the east side
facing west. Both are moved by micro
meter screws with a travel along scales
graduated to inches and twentieths,
which, with the screws, give readings to
thousandths of an inch.
These readings are taken daily, the
maximum detection ever observed being
that the top of the moves
about three times as far as the center
of gravity.
AS carefully taken data would prove of
great value to engineers who undertake
the erection or custody Of very tall shafts
, it is proposed to make the reading auto
matte and continuous by means of a
kind of improved pantograph enlarging
one thousand times. These, with the
heat records, taken at the top and at
the bottom, both inside and out, would
constitute a record Of great value, show
ing wha scientists call the "breathing''
Of this 81 100 ton mass of stone.
No less interesting was the location OF
the shaft, or what is recorded thereof.
The bench mark, known as the Jefferson
pier, was built IN the first meridian line
of the United States, in 1898. 1t is at the
intersection of a line drawn Ms.
through the center part of the executive
mansion and another E.-W. through the
capitol. No considerable record exists
of the establishment of t hese lines, al
though it is tradition that President and
Mrs. Jefferson We're present at the time,

A FREE FIGHT

Charles Anderson is a prisoner in the
city Jail, with a head which looks as
though he was run over or struck by a
train Of cars. He was a principal in a
fight last night over in Mainville, at the
house of Tess Leland and Annie Lee.
There was another man there whose
name is unknown, but he got away. An
derson, who has a return ticke to Butte,
and the two women were locked up. At
officers who arrested them and also to the
officers who arrested them and also the
officers in charge of the count Jail.
When the women become sober and An
derson is able to get up to the police
court room, they will be tried for drunken
disturbance.

SWISS BANKERS.

Some of the methods of banking in
Switzerland are sufficiently ~antiquated,
according to our standards. For IN
stance, it takes fifteen minutes in which
to make a deposit at a bank. Every
banking house has numerous chairs out
side the railing, and the visitor is ex-
pected to sit quietly and cultivate a spirit
of patience while the machinery is get
ting under way.
post goes to a window and hands in his
money, together with a memorandum of
the amount. The employee behind the
railing counts the money and prepares
a receipt for it, adding his signature by
way of preliminary.
A small boy takes this receipt upstairs
and submits it to an official, who studies
it and then ponders for a while as to
whether it will be safe to take the money.
