Historic Texan Oak.

When General Zachariah Taylor
came to Texas on his way to Mexi-
co during the Mexican war he land
ed at Rockport on point adjacent
to the Bayview hotel. He then
marched his forces up to where Full
ton now stands and halted there be-
fore going on to Corpus Christi.
When Taylor's army halted General
Taylor camped beneath the shady
boughs of an oak that is still stand
ing sentinel there.
This oak is over eight feet in di-
ameter and is probably the largest
oak in Texas. It is gnarled and
battered. Vandals have built fires
against it that have almost eaten its
heart out, but still the leaves are
green upon its branches and its
friendly shade is sought by the hun
dreds who frequent the locality.
It is king Of a grove of large and
stately oaks. One popularity about
these and all other trees in this To-
cality is that the prevailing wind
has bent their branches so that they
lean toward the northwest. - San

binder over cutting by hand or Sled
harvester is the amount of work which
can be accomplished per day and the
general ease with which the work can
be done. One disadvantage which may
be credited to the corn binder is that
it knocks off more or less ears of corn.
Binders consist essentially of dividers
passing one on each side of a row of
corn and of cutting and binding de-
vices. A bundle carrier is usually also
attached.
The present form of shocker consists
essentially of dividers, a revolving ta-
bic for assembling the shock and a
crane for removing it. The knives and
fywheel attachment for cutting the
stalks are similar to those used on the
corn binder.
Corn shockerS cost about as much as
binders and weigh approximately the
same. The wear and tear on the
shocker is probably not so great as on
the binders. The shocker requires the
work of but one man, whereas the
binder requires besides the driver two
or three men to follow and set up the
shocks. The corn shocker seems to be
the machine that meets the require
ments of owners of small farms who
do their own work. 1t requires a man
of more ability to run a corn shocker
than to operate corn binder on ac-
count of the numerous movements the
operator has to go through all at the
proper time in removing the shock
from the machine.
From replies to questions we have a
total cost of harvesting corn with a
shocker of $1.O6 per acre compared
with the cost Of $1.1S per acre for har-
veSting with Il sled harvester and $1.5O
per acre for corn binders or by hand.
The manual labor in harvesting corn
is the least when using the shocker.
The shock made by the corn shocker is
not so easily loaded on wagon as is
that made by corn binder, as the in
dividual bundles may be loaded with a
pitchfork, whereas the whole shock
made with n shocker can best be load
ed at once with some form of loading
device or horsepower derrick.
The corn binder is we'll adapted for
cutting corn for the silo, as the bum

THE OPTICAL LEVER.

The delicate measurements de-
manded by modern scientific proc
esses and machines have led to the
invention of many instruments OF
precision that surprise the uniniti-
ated by their capabilities, which ars
often based on extremely simple
principles. Among these is little
apparatus recently put upon the
market in France for determining
the thickness or, one might say, lack
Of thickness, of extremely thin
plates, wires and threads, The III
ventor lkens its action to that of a
lever in which a ray of light takes
the place Of the beam. Essentially
the apparatus consists Of two care
fully ground plates in contact with
one another, the upper one being
attached to a movable arm. When
an object is placed between the
edges of the plates the upper plate
is displaced a little in level, and the
effect Of this displacement is magni-
fed by a reflected ray of light which
falls upon a graduated scale. Thus
the most delicate measurements of
thickness are easily and quickly
made.-Youth's Companion.

"Passed With Distinction"

An incident is recorded that is
characteristic of section of Rus
sian studentdom of the present day.
A leaving examination, a certifi-
cate to which is a valuable creden-
tial, was held at the Baku grammar
school. As the students took their
seats for the examination, each
pulled from his pocket a revolver,
which he coolly laid on his desk.
The examiners not only did not
venture to interfere, but, tanned by
the sight of the weapons, allowed
the students to discuss the examina-
ton papers at their own sweet will.
They finally granted to every one
a certificate declaring that its hold
er had passed with distinction."-

Dry Land For Sheep.

1t is generally well known that
sheep require a reasonably dry eli
mate and land that is well drained, but
It often happens that farmers under
take to raise sheep on bottom land
and on land that is too wet to plow
for crop. If sheep are kept on such
land for any length of time, trouble
is sure to follow, remarks Farm Press.
Sheep cannot stand wet feet, and they
must have dry ground to sleep on at
night. Sheep lie down a great deal
when ruminating Unless the ground
Is dry and warm they are sure to
suffer. Besides foot rot, internal para
sites that affect sheep are worse on
wet land. The hoof of the sheep is
golden only when the hoof is dry.
