BURNED FIFTY YEARS.

The fire in the mine at Summit
Hill, Carbon county, Pennsylvania,
is out, after furnishing a spectacle
for fifty years. The mine caught fire
before the civil war. The fire could not
be controlled, and it was decided to
let it burn itself out.
There was much speculation at that
time as to how long it would take.
The hill over the main fire rose to a
height of sixty or seventy feet and
the veins out-cropped at the top. 1t
was therefore apparent that the coal
would have to be burned from the
very heart of the hill before the fire
could eat itself out.
MANY mining men believed that the
FIRE would burn out in ten years, and
none gave it more than twenty years,
but its life proved to be fifty-three
yesrs. For many years there were no
outward signs of fire except the
smoke and the gas which escaped
from some natural ventholes, but Of
late years the fire has so eaten up
ward into the hill that at night the
flames we're plainly visible and could
be seen for miles.
The final act Of this fire was wit
messed by only one man, a miner who
was on his way home from work
about two O'Clock in the morning
He was passing within half almile of
the hill, when he heard a rumbling,
evidently caused by the accumulation
aud expiosion of gas in the interior
of the hill.
These explosions grew in force un-
til there was very loud report and
gush of flames and smoke from the
top. Then the peak of the hill sank
In slowly aud the sides tumbled in
after it, filling up the hollows in the
veins below long ago eaten out by
the flames.
Showers of sparks and great
gushes Of smoke burst forth and the
heavens were lighted by the flames
as the hill sank. The whole time con-
sumed in this final work of destruc-
tion was not more than half an hour,
aud when it was over the hill was
like the crushed in top of pie, and
the fire which had burned for fifty.
three years was slowly dying out for
want of fuel to feed upon. 1t had
eaten out the mill until there was
nothing left but crust.

country, which will regard it as a

itself in many ways, but, most i'm

now leading the revolt against the
presidents policy. At the next ses.

DEHORNING CALVES,

Inquirer asks the field and garden
department of The Weekly Inter
Ocean how and when to dehorn young
calves. The matter is of general i'm
portance and utility. In answer 1t
quotes Professor Soule of the Ten
nessee Agricultural College, who has
made careful study of the subject,
as follows:
"We suse stick caustic potash for
dehorning our calves. We moisten
the potash and rub it well over the
button before the calves are three
weeks old, while the button Is still
loose, that is before 1t becomes at
tached to the head. Where fresh
caustic potash is used no trouble will
be experienced. II the sticks dis
solve or are old they frequently lose
their strength. l prefer to dehorn
calves this way rather than to let
them grow up and the horn fully de-
velop and then saw them off; do not
care 10 use a dehorning clipper, as
this incliLes to crush and bruise the
horus.
''If the buttons are not removed
before the calf Is three weeks old, 1t
will be difficult and sometimes al
most imp ossible to destroy them with
caustic potash. Some people make
the mistake of attempting to dehorn
their animals with saw or clipper
before the horn Is fully developed.
The horn will continue to grow until
the animal has reached maturity and
long 'scurs' will be the result. AL
together, l have found the potash
treatment satisfactory when proper

Jesse Jenkins an experienced farm
er and stock raiser says he has prac-
ticed this method for years. and has
| found IL entirely satisfactory,
