a NOVEL ENTERPR


: The city Of Seattle lies between.
Puget sound and Lake Washington. IS
canal il now being dug for the purpose
Of connecting the two. Puget sound
Is salt and connects with the Pacific
ocean. Lake Washington is4a body OF
fresh water. The object in the oonnec,.
tion il novel. Familiar with the re-
gion, and having heard Of the canal
and the reason for it, we have looked
the matter up . little, and and that
it i to be 4 barnacle cure on = large
scale, reports the Christian Advocate.
It il well known that barnacles, 9
variety of marine shell6sh, attach
themselves to the bottom Of vessels,
and after q time, when the number
becomes great the movement Of the
ships becomes 70 seriously retarded
that the vessel has to be dry docked
and cleaned. This IL an expensive op-
Grafton, and many are the devices
which have been resorted to TO pre-
vent the adhesion Of the barnacles,
but without success. Barnacles ap-
pear to be more prolific on the Pacific
coast than on the Atlantic, and, there
fore, getting rid of them becomes even
more important than in the case of
Atlantic shipping. It is q well-known
fact that the barnacles drop OF II
the ship lies for even a short time In
fresh water, and the proposition ia
connect Puget sound with this beauti-
ful fresh-water lake has for ito end
the taking advantage Of this fact, 50
that by means of the canal the vessels
may be run into Lake Washington and
allowed 70 lie there until the barna'
cles drop of. These animals, like 9th
ers whose native element is salt water
die after time and lose their grip.

THE HARDP4N PLOt On.
Great Doings with One. With a PonderOus
Road Roller to PUN II.

A plough of a kind not often seen in
operation in this town was AZ work the
other day caring up stretch of maCada
mized roadway along the tracks Of "a trolley
line in The Bronx
They were going TO lengthen turnout
and they had to tear up the pavement To
begin with. II was a thick, hard piece
Of macadam. compac'ed 10y travel a pave
nent that would soon have blunted the
stoutest picks; but they tore II up with
this plough at a great rate, though II did
take the strenuous labor Of half a dozen
stout men to hold the plough TO ills work.
IL was what the foreman of the gang
called "A hardpan plough. In the place
Of a ploughshare II had projecting a piece
Of steel IN shape and proportions some
thing like great splk" with stubby
point.
To haul this plough they used a great
steam road roller. ole Of the biggest kind
The plough was drawn 10y a chain about
twenty feet in length. that was big enough
for sizabe ships cable. There va,
power and to spare, the only trouble was
To keep the plough point down, ard keep
il Just where II belonged. II took about
seven men To do this, as many as could get
a firm grip on the plough, anywhere ana II
gave them all they wanted 10 do all the
time 70 keep ii there.
One man stood on the front end of the
plough beam. two men grasped the handles
OF the plough and the rest of them got
hold wherever they could, and hung on
and bore down and did all manner OF great
muscular stunts TO keep the plough biting
just ri ght.
The ponderous road roller moved ahead
al about the speed of a very slow walk.
DRAGGED thus forward. through the thick.
hard crust, the plough had "a constant
tendency TO yaw and libe and dig III and
lift out and do all manner of things as il
brought up against the Intending success
sion Of innumerable uneven stones con
tanned in the pavement. and while the
steam giant ahead was moving forward
with impert ur bahle calm those seven men
surrounding and hanging on to the plough
had TO push and struggle every minute
TO hold down the plough; but it did the
work in great shape.
The hardpan plough. of course, doesn't
turn furrow, but ~ it was used here, il
rooted up and broke up, so that it could
be handled With shovels, the macadam
for a space OF six or eight inches on either
side of the plough. doing the work much
more quickly and al much less expense
than il could have been done by hand labor
by men working on the job with picks.
