Those excursions were all pro- ductions of my imagination. But Within the last year another pic- ture has been growing in my mind. drawn by obse-vaticns, a reproduc- tion of a reality: it is a picture of quaint little Belgium, the land, to my mind at least, where spade-s are trumps.

inches is necessary. 0n clay soil a depth of about 6 ins. la ample. and the hard core can be made on the spot by excavating sufficient solid clay from the siic and burn- ing it thoroughly.

Thi-i is done by building up a pile of brushwood or the like with a little coal_ und heaping the clay ‘over and around it. Leave a small opening near the top and another at the bottom. The lower opening is filled with dry kindling connec- ting with the contra-l fuel. Light Ip the fire, and when well alight close in the top and bottom oles and leave it to burn- out—an oper- ation which should take several weeks.
