Experiments made at the Missouri
agricultural station show that in near
ly all road conditions broad tired wag-
ons pull easier than those with narrow
tires. On macadam road n load of
2.J1S pounds can be hauled on broad
tires with the same draft as a load of
1000 pounds on narrow ones. On gray
ell road, except when wet and sloppy on
top, the draft of the broad tired wagon
Is much less than that of the narrow
tired wagon. a load of 2,4S2 pounds
can be hauled on broad tires with the
draft required for 1000 pounds on mar
row tires.
The trials on dirt roads give varying
results. When it is dry, hard and free
from dust, 2,530 pounds can be hauled
on broad tires with the draft required
for 1000 pounds on narrow tires. When
the surface is covered with two or
three inches of dry, loose dust, the re-
suits are favorable to the broad tire.
In general the better the road the
greater the advantage of the broad tire
On turf it is much easier of draft.

A Like Tint Ents Boats.

A strange lake exists in the center Of
sulphur island off New Zealand. 1t IS
so acres in extent. about l. feet in
depth and - feet above the level of the
sea.
The most remarkable characteristic
of this lake is that the water contains
vast quantities of hydrochloric and sui
phuric acids Kissing and huhbling at a
temperature of 10 degrees F.
The dark green colored water looks
particularly uninviting. Dense clouds
Of sulphuric fumes constantly roll off
this boiling caldron. and care has to be
exercised in approaching this lake to
avoid the risk of suffocation. On the
opposite side of the lake may be seen
the tremendous blowholcs, which,
when in full blast, present an awe in
spring sight.
The roar of the steam as it rusheS
forth into the air is deafening, and
often huge powders and stones are
hurled out TO a height of several hun
dred feet by the various internal forces
of nature.
A boat can be launched on the lake
and If proper care be observed the very
edges of the blowholes may be safely
explored.
Some idea of the strength of the acid
saturated water of this lake may he
gathered from the fact that boat al
most dropped to pieces after all the
passengers had been landed, as the
rivets had corroded under the influence
Of the acids.

Mr.. James Rhen, who is engaged in n
special study of bats, says that it is a
fallacy that the vampire is a blood
sucker. Travellers and story writers
are responsible for the story of the ter
rible bloodsucking vampire bats of
South America. Nearly all general
writers on this subject agree with
them as to its criminal record. and they
all concur in laying the blame on Il
large grotesque looking bat with an
enormous leaf nose, the Vampyrus
spectrum. This bat is common in
South and Central America and, from
his great size, being about two feet
across the outspread wings, is a sug
gestive and repulsive enough object to
impute the b.ood loving habit to.
AS a D:attar of fact, this is some
what useful animal and is totally inno-
cent of these charge, the bloodsuck-
erS being two much smaller and rarer
bats. The front teeth of these two lat
ter are enormous lancets occupying
over half the tooth row of the animals
and possessing very sharp edges, which
can easily penetrate the human skin.
The teeth Of the big vampire, on the
other hand, are simply adapted for
diet of insects and fruit. The true
bloodsucking bats are much rarer than
the vamrire,-Philadelphia Record.

GOOD ROADS OF FLORlUA,
Splendid Highways Built of "A MIE-
ture of Sand aud Clay.

Maurice O. Eldridge. acting director
Of the office of road inquiry Ol tie agri-
cultural department, who recently
made an examination OF the roads Of
Florida, makes n very favorable report
of their condition. lie says: In spite OF
the great freeze of 1885, which almost
paralyZed the orange industry in Fiori.
da, the people of that state have built
under these trying conditions hundreds
of miles of good roads. These high
ways are as durable and perfect as the
stone and gravel roads of some Of the
northern states. ami on account Of the
luxuriant tropical growth which bor-
ders them on every hand they are rs
beautiful as any highways / lave ever
seen, not excepting the masterpieces Of
the road builders art which traverse
the rocky slopes of the Alps. The most
remarkable thing about these roads is
the cost. which is only about our-SiXth
as much as the stone and gravel roads
of the northern states
Roads II feet wide are being con
structed ia Orange county in the vicini-
ty of Orlando and Winter Park for
$500 per mile, and where convict labor
can be had, which fortunately is very
scarce in Florida. good roads have been
built for $3.50 per mile. This remark
ably low cost is due to the fact that
these roads were built 10y simply mix
ing the sand. of which the original
roads were composed, with clay. which
has been discovered at various points
in the state. \ large deposit of this
clay was discovered near Hartow. aud
many OF the streets and roads in
Orange county have been built hy mix
ing Barlow clay with sand. which.
wien placed upon the prepared sand
foundation and rolled, 50 cuuSulidatcS
and cements together as to form a
compact and smooth surface. After
these roads are once bll1ll they are not
worn and cut to pieces Ike the high
ways of the north. due to the fact that
no deep freezes occur To disrupt their
surfaces and foundations IN winter
and that the water flows rapidly to the
sides of the road during continued
rains and sinks into the sandy soil
alongside. Another reason why these
roads DO not wear rapidly Is that many
of the vehicles in Florida. even the
bugglcs ana light spring wagons. have
been provided with wide tires and have
thus become roadmakerS. As a result
of wide tires aud good drainage some
of the streets OF Orlando, Fla. which
were built over ten years ago Of sand
and clay, are as good. if not better, to-
day than they were when they were

well. it was built, and in a short
time thereafter the average farmer
with a heavy load to cart would go a
considerable distance out of his way
for the sake of getting upon it. Doubt
less precisely the same thing has oc
Cured in the case of many other i'm

can at their homes. This is particular
ly true oil surgical cases and of the
more common class of severe medical
cases, as typhoid fever and pneumonia.
'Second.-The nursing Is better and

"rOGrth.-The diet, ventilation and
balneation can be better controlled.
"Fifth.-The doctors orders are not
interfered with.
"SiXth.-The scientific attainments
and the esprit de corps of the medical
profession of the city are greatly ele-
waited, as a hospital is great incuba-
tor as well as disseminator of medical
knowledge.
"Seventh.-A hospital in a city Of

limitations of medicine and surgery in
the alleviation of human ills and in

"Eighth.-The scientific quality ana
the extent of work that may be accom-

an average of $40 week for board and

the country which failed during the
panic and afterward paid all it owed,
$3OO,00O. to despositors, every cent of
which came from mining stocks which
at the time of the failure were con-
