driftwood and clogging by fish screens.
Such features of this type of reser-

cussed in Farmers Bulletin No. 1913.
Commonly Used Method.
In the early days of mining in Cali
fornia. someone evolved the idea of
washing down the gold-bearing sand
by means of powerful streams of wa
ter directed against the banks and hill
sides. This practice has been i'm
proved and extended and now is COM
monty used method of building earthen
entertainments and of loosening and
transferring earthly material for other
purposes In making use of this
method an ample supply of water is
necessary. What is called the cutting
stream is under high pressure from
60 to 100 pounds per square inch. The
pressure may be obtained by gravity
fall or by pumping, and the water is
conveyed TO the material to be eXca-
waited in pressure pipe of suitable
diameter. The end of the pressure pipe
terminates in a giant from which
a stream is directed against the
bank of dirt. A large stream of wa
ter, but under little or no pressure,

BILE of withstanding load such as is
placed upon it by the passage of a
locomotive and one compact and stable
enough to hold water. In highway and
railroad fills little, if any, attention is
paid to packing materials, but in the
case of earth fills to retain water,
packing is necessary. Experience has
shown that one of the best ways to
pack ordinary dirt which does not con-
tain too much clay is to dump it into
water and let nature do the packing.
When this method is not feasible the
earth should be placed on the en-
bankment in thin layers and each lay
err moistened and rolled or otherwise
compacted. In some cases the earth
can be moistened before it is removed
from it's natural site.

MANURE TO INCREASE CROPS
At Pennsylvania 1t Was Found That
Application of Six Tons Was
Better Than Ten.

Stable manure has long been con-
sidered very valuable fertilizer. 1t
is usually thought by farmers that the
larger the application of manure the
greater the crop increase. Experiment
tai data shows that such is not the
case. At Pennsylvania it was found
that an application of six tons per
acre gave return of $500 per ton as
compared with 1929 per ton when ten
tons per acre were used. This is dol
lar a ton in favor of the lighter appli-
cation. At the same rate the farmer
who has hundred tons of manure TO
spread can save nearly enough to pay
for his manure spreader. Hand spread
ing could hardly put manure on at the
rate of six tons. This Is not an iSO-
lated case. Other work has shown an
actually smaller yield with large
amount than with a smaller amount of
manure.

A boarding house was some years ago
robbed of a handbag and some EGO
belonging to the landlady, a wallet,
containing important documents, the
property of gentleman guest, and g.
few valuables, including miniature OF
the gentlemah's wife. The thief had
taken out the landlady's eyeglasses
from the bag and left them on the ta-
Bile, and a few days later a parcel
arrived at the boarding house, marked
"7d. to pay" containing the missing
documents and the miniature stripped
of its frame.
A lady teacher awakened by noise

saw a man on the stairs. kindly let

his boots, shook hands with the school
mistress, and, as he went added: "Not
a word Go to bed like good girl ~
She did not. She went to the police,
and the polite burglar was finally
tracked and captured.
