In answer to several requests for a device to transmit power from a wind- :mill to a pump where the well is sev- eral hundredfeet distant we give the following plan, says Iowa Homestead. The illustration shows two triangles, one of which is to be attached at the “swell and the other at the mill. Each DEVICE FOR WINDMILL AND PUMP. Ttriangle is supported firmly to a post -o'r beamby a bolt which acts as a joist at the hole marked X. At the .hole markedA the pump rod is at- ltached, while the windmill rod is at- Ttached to the other triangle (at B) cor- a'cspondingly. The. two triangles then face each other as in illustration and :are attached to each other by strong rwire at the eyes in the upper and ‘lower ends. The triangles are made of ttwo inch hard wood to be satisfactory rand lasting.

(Often the effects are more apparent the second year, says a writer in Am- erican Agriculturist. Several years ago I, fertilized an asparagus bed with tankage in March.

This seems to be ev1- (lance that it takes two seasons or more to get thefull benefit of ferti- zliaer.‘ Some other peculiarities I have rnoticed are that when one year roots are set out. all grow well if properly . plantedgbut five your roots will near- ‘ly all die.

It is a product of the growth of the tuber- cle organism in artificial cultures, but it is a perfectly harmless product 'when properly used. It will neither cure nor cause the disease to spread in an affected animal; neither will it injure a healthy one in any way. In skilled hands it is almost infallible, and with ordinary judgment the er- rors are only a few per cent.
