Largest of Belts.

TT is reported that in the equipment
of a sawmill in the State of Wash
ington there has been installed the
largest leather belt in the world. 1t
was made from pure oak bark tanned
leather. is "a inches in width, ia feet
in length, three-ply in thickness and
weighs just 1900 pounds. In it's
manufacture there were required the
centers of the hides of 225 steers. and
each piece of this leather was
stretched separately before being
placed in the belt.
In putting the belt together no
pegs, rivets or fastenings of any kind
were used except cement, and the
plies were cemented together under
Il hydraulic pressure of ESQ tons. AS
no hide will produce a single piece of
leather wide enough to make a belt
of this width. it was necessary to use
two or three centers to make it.
These pieces were cemented together,
a two-inch longitudinal lap being
used. This lap was made entirely by
hand. AS there were about 700 feet
of this work, it required a consider
able space of time. The finished belt
has the appearance of a single piece.
Sawmills are operated under wide
ly varying loads, so that the service
required of the driving belt is most
severe. Amy piece of leather, there
fore, used for this purpose must bear
the maximum strain of the Sawnili ],
for this maximum is often reached.
The pulleys used have broad sur
faces to give the necessary adhesion
for delivering the required horse

Whimsical Experiment.

A kBAR, one of the first of the great
"A moguls who ruled India, has been
named the Asiatic Charlemagne. He
was a statesman and an educator, and
built palace for the reception of men
who loved learning and sought after
wisdom. The great mogurs passion for
knowledge is said to have been shown
by whimsical experiment he once made
to determine il it was true, as he had
heard that Hebrew was the natural
language of all who had never been
taught any other tongue.
To test this assertion Akbar caused a
dozen nursing children to be shut up in
a castle, 6 leagues from Agra, his capt.
tai city Each child was reared by a
dumb nurse; the porter also was a mute
and was forbidden, upon pain of death,
to open the gates of the castle. When
the children were IL years old Akbar
ordered them to be brought before him.
Men learned in SanSkrit in Arabic, in
Persian and in Hebrew were assembled
at the royal palace to tell what language
the children spoke Akbar. seated on his
throne and surrounded by these lin
gusts, ordered the children to be
brought in. Each child was addressed
and, to the surprise of the assembly
every one answered by a sign. Not a
child could speak a word. They had all
learned from their nurses to express
themselves by gestures.

Bamboo Culture,

IN an effort to encourage bamboo
culture in the United States, and
as a basis for more extensive expert
ments in the future, the Bureau of
Plant Industry has for some time been
distributing bamboo plants with
view to determining the soils and
climatic conditions in this country
which are best suited to them.
In the United States bamboo has
been planted chiefly as an ornamental
plant, being commonly grown for that
purpose in Florida and California and
some of the cotton States. In the San
Joaquin Valley it is planted to d con-
siderable extent as windbreak, for
the protection of vineyards, orchards
and truck farms. Not less than 10000.
600 ba boo fishing poles are imported
into this country every year from
China and Japan. There appears TO
be no reason why these should not
all be grown at home, while the in
Vulnerable other purposes for which
various species of bamboo are suited.

merrfa1 varieties and to encourage

product. In France you would find

says a French fashion writer, "is a

No one predicted the fashion of rose

among many well dressed American
women.

advises US to get a frock to go with

Mining in a Stag Heap.

A S the process of extracting metal
from ore is perfected, it is found
that what was formerly considered
waste is now convertible into hard
dollars. A good example of this is
found in a Western mining city,
where hundreds of thousands of tons
of Stag were run out of the smelter
and allowed to stand for years be
cause it was cheaper to leave this
eyesore in the town than to haul
away the Stag.
Not long ago, however, it was found
possible to save the copper in this
Stag pile, which amounts to IL per
cent Accordingly, it is now loaded
into ore cars to be re-smelted, and rs
the Stag forms a valuable fux for the
ores it is an additional gain. besides
