DRY-ROT In BRIDGES.
Why Wooden Structures Should Net
4 BE Painted Until they Have
Stood 4 Year.

The effect of paint on wet timber is I.
'dry-rot." If the timber is dry and well
seasoned, the better practice is to apply
q coating Of paint at once. 1t is. how
ever, a mistake to paint unseasoned
timber in a bridge until it has stood a
| year, and the work should be done al
the enc of the summer, when the wood
is thoroughly dry.
Because of the tendency Of paint to
| retain moisture, there has been some
dispute as 10 the advisability of paint
ing very large timbers in a bridge, the
tendency of the paint being to increase
the dry-rot. Nevertheless, the timber
reaches a certain stage. after sufficient
seasoning. when to exclude the atmos-
phere by painting tends to its preserva-
ton.
1t is not considered good practice,
however, in wooden bridge construc-
ton. to use any timber more than six
inches in thickness. Where greater
strength is required. in caps. beams.
cords, braces. etc, sufficient number
of pieces, of this or less thickness,
should be built together by keys, pack
ing pieces and bolts. thus allowing q
free circulation of air. Over members
thus composed should be placed COW
ering of galvanized iron. extending a
half or three-quarters of an inch down
on the timber, and secured by galvan-
lied tacks. preventing the rain from en-
tering the spaces or resting on or
around the packed joints.
The bridge thus built should be given
one thorough coat Of paint the summer
following is construction, and a second
coat should be applied the third year.
The ends of all timbers. all seats, joints
and bearings. should be well and thor
oughly coated with white lead at the
time of construction. Municipal

Respeceea Greatness.

Two very naughty, and, incidentally,
very dirty, boys were having fun with
the advertisements upon big billboard.
They penciled ragged-looking mus
tache upon the upper lip OF George w.
Childs and gave Chester A. Arthur a
full beard. They put disreputable Gal
ways on Robert Mantell, they attached
a very cheap cigar to the lips of John
Drew, they made a bearded lady of
Lillian Russell, and they gave Admiral
Dewey . black eye.
After they had stood OF and admired
their artistic achievements fer a mo-
ment one of them took a Kew grip
upon his pencil and started toward a
picture near the center of the board.
He was about to make a stroke when
his companion cried out:
"Hold on! Don't do anything to dat!"
"Why not?"
Oats Jeffries, de champeen."
Then they put their pencils IN their
pockets, looked reverently at the un-
mutilated face upon the board, and
trudged along.-Chicago Times-Herad.

DR.. Edward Smith has made some
careful examinations in regard to the
inhalation OF oxygen and the exhala-
tion of carbon during physical exer'
else. Allowing the figure 1 to repre-
sent the quantity OF air inhaled by a
man when lying fiat. the quantity OF air
inhaled when he sits Is LIS. when he
stands 1.S3, when he walks one mile
an hour 1.9S, four miles an hour 5. and
when he runs 6 miles an hour. 1t Is 4.
In other words. II man at rest inhales
4sO cubic inches Of air per minute. he
inhales 2,400 cubic inches when he
walks four miles an hour. and $500 GU
bic inches when he walks six miles an
hour. The exhalation Of carbon In

Ru..,... Hack Earth Eel.

Soil OF the greater portion Of the
grain region Of Russia and Siberia Is
well known in that country ns the
'chernozem" or "black earth" says
Bradstreet's. II Is n broad belt Of
prairie. 600 to 700 miles in average
width. beginning in Hungary ana ex-
tending northeastward to the Ural
mountains. and then eastward into ST.
IBERIA to unknown boundaries. On the
north and the west are the gray for
est lands" and on the south and west
are salt and alkaline districts and
sandy wastes. and finally the Caucasus
and the Ural mountains. By both
chemical and mechanical analyses the
soil is shown to be remarkably similar
to that of our own prairie soil. From
a chemical standpoint the soils OF the
two regions are similarly characterized
These soils are alkaline. while many
others, especially of forest regions, are
acid. 1t is well known that the sub
stances thus more abundant in these
soils than In others are just those US
ually needed by the wheat plant.
