 make the final proof and get his pat
 ent by paying the usual fees to the
 district land office. During this time
 temporary absence from a homestead may be allowed for sickness failure
 Of crops or other good cause, but ap-
 phcauon for such absence must be
 made to the land office. Proof IS
 made by affidavit with two witnesses. A desert entry requires the payment
 Of 20 cents an acre when the filing
 Is made. This entry can only be made on land which will not grow & crop without artificial irrigation. Residence
 upon the land is not required in mak- ing desert entry, but the law does require an expenditure of ST an acre for each and every acre filed upon each year for three years. This ex- penditure can be covered by improve ments of any and all kinds made upon the land, whether in ditching, clearing and blowing, fencing, planting trees or some other way actually expended upon the land itself At the expIra- tion of each year after filing, the amount of expenditures and improve ments have to be certified to the dis fp.ia 1ap
 rated by two witnesses. The law re- quires that one must own sufficient water to irrigate the whole tract by the end of four years, when final proof shall be made, and one must cultivate during those four years fully one-eighth of the number of acres filed upon. At the end of four years,
 if the law has been compiled with, one must pay S1 an acre additional and then receive patent for the land. In cases where one does not desire to actually live upon the land, the method to be followed is this: Make a filing under the desert land law, which requires personal presence in filing, and any time before the ex- piration of four years, work in the meantime having been done as above explained, the filing as a desert claim can be relinquished to the govern ment and homestead filing on the same land can be made at the same that desert claim is relin- quished. In this manner one has near ly four years in which to put his land In good shape, have trees and vines in full bearing condition, houses built, etc. and the place is in perfect and habitable condition, with the advan- tage that no residence upon the land Is required during the four-year per od. As to the use of land scrip, any citizen who wants a piece of land not already acquired can take it up, the lumber of acres unlimited, by plac- ng with the district land office scrip sufficient to cover the desired acre lge. There is very little scrip left, however. It was issued by the gov for the benefit of soldiers, etc

Heaying the log is one of those pie turesque sea expressions with which sll landsmen are acquainted, though probably few could explain the exact process The log is a quadrant shap- cd piece of wood loaded with lead at the curve. The line to which it is at. tached is 120 fathoms long and is di- yided by knots into equal distances oS forty-seven feet each. These distances are the same fraction of a nauti,7.. mile ia kno0 as twenty-eight seconGs is of one hour. Consequently the nun.

cAIssoN WORK.
How Foundations of Great Steel
 Structures Are Built.

How Foundations of Great Steel
 Structures Are Built.
 The foundations for the great steel structures are built by means of calls sons in which the men can work under great pressure of air. It is a very interesting sight to watch them, and the best of it is that any one may see them at close range from an adjoining sidewalk. The caisson is hollow steel cylinder open at the bottom and just large enough to permit a man to work The workman climbs down ladder in this tube and digs away the earth at the bottom. As the earth is taken away the steel tube Is gradually low cred. The, earth is taken out by a bucket, which is lowered and raised by a tall derrick at one side. As the caisscn sinks, air Is pumped into the compartment containing the man. This is to force back any water or dirt that might i'll the hole from the outside as fast as the workman removes it from within. The pressure of this air is of ten so great that a man can work but an hour or so at a time. At the top of the caisson Is steel cylinder with an air tight door at either end, which serves as a kind of vestibule to the tube below.
 When one of the caisson workers starts to go to work he opens the door or lid at the top and climbs fin, when the opening is once more tightly clos ed. This door or lid Is air tight Aft CT the opening to the outer air has been closed the workman opens the door at the bottom of this steel com partment and lets in compressed air from 1he calsson below. It takes few minutes to become accustomed to breathing this atmosphere, for the heavy air makes the head ring As soon as the workman can do> so he climbs down into the funnel below. closing the lower door of the steel anteroom as he does so. All this must be done in the dark. If the workman wishes to signal the. outer world he may do so by striking the steel sides of his narrow prison with his shovel He usually signals in this way when the bucket is to be raised or lowered Frances Arnold Collins in St Nicholas
