THE WORLD'S TALLEST STRUCTURES
A Waterworks Tower in Cleveland Tali« Tian the Washington Monument. The tallest chimney was built at Port Dundas, Glasgow, Scotland, 1327, 1259, for F. Townsend. I: is the high- est chimney in the world (454 feet), and vhe the lofticst masonry structures im existence, It is, independent of it> size, One of the best specimens of sub- stantial, well-made brick work in ex istence. In Europe there cre only two -hurch steeples that exceed this struc ture in height—namely, that of the Cologue Cathedral (510 feet), and that wf the Strasburg Cathedral (468 feet). Che great Pyramid of Tizeh was orig- inally 480 feet, although not so high at preseut. The United States outtops them il] with its Washington Monu- nient, 550 feet high, and the tower of the Philadelphia Public Building, which
OL
is 537 feet high.
The Biffel Tower, at Paris France, Surpasses ail other terrestrial metal structures with its altitude of nearly 1,000 feet, The “Great Tower,” for London, England, in course of con- struction from designs of Mr. Henry Davey, C. E., wfll outtop all metal!
structures, being built of steel, and its
Xtreme height will be 1,250 feet when finished.
The highest and most remarkable metal chimney in the world is erected at the imperial foundry at Halsbrucke, near Frieberg in Saxony. The height “ this structure is 452.6 feet, and 15.74 feet in internal diameter, and is si-- uated on the right bank of Muide, at in elevation of 219 feet above that 0% the foundry works, ard that its total seight above the sea is no less than 11.75 feet. The works are situate’ on the left bank of the river, and the furnace gasses are conveyed across th river to the chimney on a bridge hrovgh a pipe 3,227 1-2 feet in length.
The highest artificial structure in America is the water works tower at Eden Park, Cincinnati, Q. Tae floor
of the tower, reached by clevators, is the Ohio River. The buse is 404 feet above the s'ream. If the height of the elevator shaft be add-
d to the observation floor the grand total height is 589 feet.
The highest office building in the world is the Manhattan Life Insurance Company of New York city: tts height above the sidewalk is 347 feet, and its foundations go down 53 feet below the same, being 20 feet below tidewater level, making a total of 400 feet. The foundations consist of fif- teen masonry piers, and are carried b3 the same number of steel caissons. Tle latter were sunk to bedrock by the pneumatic process. The cantilever sys- tem was used for the foundatlons.— From Machinery,
THE TELEPHONE HABIT.
Its Growth is Argument in Favor of a
Telegraphic Mail Service.
The subject of using the telegraph wires for mail matter 1s being pushed energetically by F. T. Delaney, whose schem@ was outlined some time ago. fhe rapid growth of the telephone is phenomenal, and the long distance ser- vice has already become a formidable ompetitor of the telegraph for the nost profitable business, Indeed( says the Electrical Engineer, it was shown that taking the two industries broad- 'y, the telephone is ten times as often used as the telegraph, and that while the telegraph does not increase appre- iably in the ratios of itsuse by the vublic, the telephone habit is gaining cround in a most remarkable man- ner. To-day the population of the United States dces not average an- nually much more than one telegram ger head, whereas the telephone av- ‘rage is already ten messages per year per head. When we realize that al- recdy in large cities the ordinary sub- scriber uses his telephone ten times a day, and that only now have the sur- burban and rural portions of the com- munity begun to enjoy the enormous advantages of the telephone, it will be seen that the telephone in frequency of use bids fair to leave the telegraph so far in the rear that comparison will be- 2eme ridiculous.
A combined telegraphic and _ tele- vhonic mail service has been estab- lished in Norway and Sweden, where the Government controls the tele- graphic and telephonic service. By this innovation a subscriber’s telephone number is used as his tlegraphic ad- lress. Messages thus addressed are ‘elephoned to the address immediately upon receipt, and only in case he can- not be communicated with by telephone u messenger is sent to his address. “opies of the telephonic message are lelivered shortly afterward through mail, being simply sent to confirm the message, A great saving in time of lelivery is effected by this innovation.
Giant of African Reptiles.
It is rarely that a European travel- mg through Central Africa has the fortune to met with the giant of Afri- ‘an reptiles, the python, alive in his pingle home; but the Zomba Gazette aarrates that two gentlemen the Administration service who were pro- ceeding from Biantyre to Zomba were brought to a standstill the other day near the Namasi military station by 1 splendid specimen, which disputed thcir right of way. The servants caught sight of him before coming within reach of danger, when with the great- “st excitement they reported their find to a gentleman named Wheeler, who happened to be in the van. Mr. Wheeler approached within ten yards of the python and put a bullet through its head, which, though not killing him outright, rendered him incapable of foing any harm, For half an hour af- ter this the snake continued to writhe, and the natives would not go near him, stating that he was “Mkali”’ (fierce) still. However, Mr. Cunningham, who was the other traveler, arrived on the scene «nd put an end to matters by sutting the reptile’s head off. The boay was afterwards taken to Zomba, skin- ned, and found to measure 18 fret 2 inches from the point of the head to the tip of the tail, allowing 6 inches for the hecd which had been cut off

| FALL WORK ON THE FARM |
WHAT MAY BE DONE TOWARDS BRISK: ING THINGS UP,
Management of Manure—The Barnyard
Pile is the Farm Savings Bank and It
Pays Good Interest When Properly
Managed.
The most important work at this sea- son is the manzgement of the manure. {t is the farm savings bark, and pays good interest if the manure is handled ii a Manner to prevent loss, No ma- nure can be of service until all the tugredients are reduced by decomposi- tion, and to spread coarse manure on the ground in the spring is to take the risk of a large Portion of it re- maining in the soil beyond the time when the crops may need it most. In early spring the manure cannot be quickly decomposed, as decomposition is slow when the. weather is cold, and the best period of the year for making manure and preparing it as plant food ts in the fall and winter. The exposure of manure to the effects of winds, rains and sun leads to los of a large pro- forticn of its plant food, and the ad- dition of coarse material to the heap without handling the manure in 4 manner to decompose all of the ma- terial is a loss of time. The real vai- We of the manure is not in the quarti- ty of coarse matter it contains, but In the proportion of nitrogen, phos- Phoric acid, and potash therein, and they may be gradually leached out by rains as fast as they become soluble in the heap.
THE LIQUIDS
The most valuable portions of ma- gure are the liquids, Enterprising far- mers are careful to save this, and with Suitable drains to carry it to the ma- gure heap to be absorbed by the solid portions, but such is not the rule with the majority of farmers, who are cate- ful to save the solids, but permit the liquids to flow awa.’, some 6f them making ditches to carry off the black liquids which overflow the barn yards, Instead of filling the barn yard with an abundance of material for absorb- Ing them. The centre of the manure beap is where the heat is generated, and when the liquids are added to the heap they hasten decomposition. As long as there is no danger of over- heating or “fire-fanging” it is an ad- vantage to have the heap in this con- dition, but when the centre of the heap is well decomposed the manure should be handled, the entire mass turned over, and the coarse material on the top thrown to the centre, satur- ating it with the liquids which will at once cause the materials to decom- pose.
ABSORBENT MATERIALS.
One of the advantages of manure is its even distribution over the soil. Manure spreaders do this work in an excellent manner. but when all absor- bent material is first rendered fine the capacity of the solid matter to absorb liguids is greatly increased and the decomposition is more perfect, whiie the loss of ammonia is likewise re- @uced to a minimum. If all bedding fs cut, and all coarse foods reduced with a cutter, the increased value of the manure will pay for the labor of so doing. The winter work should in- clude manure making—not simply add- ing materials to the heap—which de- mands the judicious use of absorbents po as to save the valuable liquids, and to prevent loss of plant food, as well as reducing the manure to a condition approaching availability as nearly as possible. Frozen manure will not de- compose, and the heat in the heap should be maintained uniformly. It May require stalks a year to rot in the soil, but this is quickly accomplished in the heap. Keep in view the fact that in making maure the process is one of preparing avaflable plant food,
PRACTICAL FARM TALK.
Phe True Method of Testing Cows For Butter.
It is now established as a fact that the only true method of testing cows for butter is not by churning the milk, but by the use of the tester. It is got satisfactory after churning the milk to find quite a large percentage of the butter fat in the buttermilk. There is more skill required in hand- ling the milk and cream, to insure perfect success than ordinary milkmen are willing to bestow. The tempera- ture, the churning, the age of the cream, and even the food are conditions to be met in testing cows.
The horse may yet have to compete with the steer as a source of supply for meat, as prejudice is disappearing against “horse beef.” :Horeseless veht- cles, bicycles and rapid transit by the aid of railroads, are relegating the horse to the rear. His uses are becom- ing more limited, but the trotter wih pontinue to hold a place for some time yet.
The keeping of sheep on worn-out land has always resulted in increased fertility, due to the even distribution of the droppings and the treading of the manure into the soil by the feet of the sheep. In England it is estl- mated that one hundred sheep kept on one acre of land fifteen days will ren- der the land capable of producing more than an average crop of grain.
Prices of beef hold well up, and the
large crops of grain will bring the cost of food lower. No better time
tan come for increasing the flocks and herds than the present. When the west can produce grain cheaper than the east it wii pay to procure the cheap foods and convert them into beef, mut- ton, pork, milk, butter and eggs. An- ether important item is the manure, Some farmers find it profitable to use theap foods depending only on the ma- gure as profit.
A sheepman thinks that if near a large city, fattening Jambs from two to three months old will give the great- est profit, especially if put on the mar. ket early in the season,
No healthy animal needs medicine. The practice of using copperas, carbol- Ic acid. ete., as preventives of diseases, by giving such drugs to animals, and especially as is done with hogs, result in more damage than occurs from @isease. Such substances are poison- ous and cannot be allowed without risk of deleterious effects,
