favorable weather conditions in the

ports of increasing mill activity at Fall

combination. The prevailing idea is
that the lack of interest on the part of
the buyers is wholly due to the buyers
expectation of acquiring tobacco cheap
er before spring. The possibility that
TIE buyer may have difficulty six or
nine months hence in disposing of his
holdings at the price he paid for them
seemingly has not occurred to the aver
age grower. Nor does the average
grower sense that his own prosperity
is interviewer with that of the buyer
and manufacturer. Meantime there
has been no break in the deadlock,
though indications are multiplying that
growers are beginning to chafe under
the unwonted quietude and that the
absence of buyers is keen disappoint-

meant q pipe or tuba, and the term
trompe was applied to the apparatus
by which the blast Is produced In the
Catalan forge. 1t Is a simple, effec-
tive and ingenious contrivance for
producing a continuous and eQuable
blast, but its use Is restricted to To-
calities where a fall Of water from a
height Of several yards can be OBJ
tanned. The principle Is that water
ear be made to fall through q pipe
in such q way that 1t will draw in
through side openings a considerable
amount of air, which by a simple and
ingenious arrangement can be utilized
as a constant current or blast, and
which has the merit of costing almost
nothing. 1t has been utilized to a linn
tied extent elsewhere than In the de-
partment Of Ariege, in the South Of
France, where it was formerly very
generally employed. Iron has been
made in that district for more than
600 years, but the use Of the trompe
blast was not introduced until the end
Of the seventeenth century.

Tho Piston.

1.-THE piston is in the form Of a
solid iron rod that enters the cylinder
through a hole pierced in the middle
of M Of the ends" writes Henri
Fabre, land just large enough to give
free passage to the rod, without let
ting the steam escape. This rod is
bound to another iron piece, called a
crank, and finally the crank is attached
to the n%eighboring wheel. . The
piston, advancing and retreating in
turn in the cylinder, pushes the crank
forward and back, and the crank thus
makes the great wheel turn. On the
other side Of the locomotive, the same
things are taking place by means of a
second cylinder. Then the two great
wheels turn at the same time and the
locomotive moves forward"
