The People's Journal PICKENS So ANOTIlCII GREAT DISCOVEIty Experinentts With ilquofled Air Soine or its Marvelous Powers. Mr. E. F. Androws writes as followk to tho Augusta Chronicle: Chautauqua, N. Y., Aug. 21, 1899. 1 have just witnessed some experl ments with liquefied air which woro so wonderful that I am sur your readers will be interested in hearing about them. The liquid was brought from New York city, where it was manu factured, in a large cight-gallon can, carefully wrapped in non-conducting felt, just as lee is patcked for transpor tation. It is the lirst Lime that this ilid has ever been carried so far in quantities large enough to be experi inanted with, and so well was it packed that only two gallons evaporated in the transit--i distance of about E500 miles. When the coveri was removed it imiiediately began to sioko like a cauldron of furiously botii ig .vter. The temperature of a liquid air is so low-312 degrec) below zero--that con tact not merely with common air, but with a lump of ordinary ice will et it to boiling just as water will do on con tact with tire or with a lump of redhot ironls. There is no ordinary substance that Is not redhot in comlit paritson with a teniperature of 312 degrees below zero, consequently tho liquid air, unless careflily protected by non-conductors of heat is in a constant state of chilli Lion. et, even while boiling, it is colder than,ice by imany deg rees, and will instantly freeze w hatuver coies in contact with it. As the operaor dipped it up from the can the ladle would be t iued iatelv coated with frost, and when a vessel of it was placed in cold water, tle iquid air at once began to boil furiously f rein thu heat of the water arolind the vessel, forming a erust of ice so hard that it could be readily removed and used as a tumbler. Into th is ice trunbller more liquid air was poured, which i notaitly bcgau to boil from contact with the ice. The hydrogein, of the air, Ieing lighter thani the oxygen evpl1ioraite.- more quickly, and as every school boy k n:ow s that oxygen is a great promoter of combustion, the liquid air, after josing its hydrogen, becois a maetiumU for IroLcing the fiercest htat, thougih itself so intensely cold.

The Kind You Iuns Alaps Boug .?""s th*e d z THE TIRUB PUIKCOIPE OF ROAD 0 How They Are to be Made to Sul serve the Best Interests of- tI Ieople. The following is an extract from tl thoughtful address of Mr. M. 0. I' dridge, of the U. S. Department < Agriculture, at the recent good road institute in Charlotte : The purpose of roads Is to transpor from the place of productim to th place of consumnption those agricul tural and comnmercial supplies whic] are so essential to our life and well being, as well as to subservo the bes interests of society, education and re ligion , conscquently, they should bi located and so constructed that prod ucts and peopl can be easily, quickl] and cheaply moved from one placo t< another. In order to most successfully attain thosO essential ends. it is necessar that roads should be hard, smooth, comparatively level and lit, for use at all seasons of the year ; that they should be properly located or laid out on the ground, so that their grades may be such that power may be up plied upon them to the best advantage and without great loss of energy ; that they should be properly constructed, the ground well drained, the road bud graded and shaped, and tiat they should be surfacud wi th the best ma torials procurable ; that they should be propei ly maintained or kept con stlantly in good repair. A horse can pull only four-lifths ais much on a grade of two feet in 101 as he can on a level roa.1, i.d thi grad ually lossens until with a grade of ten feet in 100l he can draw but one-fourth as much as lie can on a level road. As a chain is no stronger than its weakest link, just, so tle greatest load whiel can be hauled up the steepest hill or through the deepest gushy mire on a road is the gauge of that road. The cost of hauling is therefore necessarily increaited in proportion to the steep ness of the grade or the roughtness of the surface. It costs one and one lourth times as i much to haul over a road having " per centt. grade and tiree times as inuch over one hav ing a 10 per cent. grade as on a level road. G00d rouds should, thercfore, wind aroIu ndl h ills instead of running over them, and in many Cases this can ho done without greatly increasing their length . Tile mathematical axioin that 'a straight lineaa is the shortest distaneo betweena two Uoints' is not therefore the best rule to follow in laying out a r'old. More a ppropr i ate is tht proverb that ' the longest way around is the lortest way liomie.' It has bjeen aseerlaiied that a hors' or 1111 eann for a llort, time double his usial exertion, alio that (1n the host road Ie exert:; a l'pres'ure against his collar of about one thirty-liftlh of the load . If he ean loubc his exertion ora tiumie he can pull one thirty-lifth mr1, and the s1oe wIich would force himl, to lift this proportion will he one of one in thiI ty-live or about* at 3 per celt. grace. Oin this slope, however, lie woUnd be compelleil to doulile his ordinary xertionl to draw a fuIll load, and it would tLherefore he the i..roper grade r(1 al1 public highways. The i-SAntiai feature of a good road is good -rainage where you find the Y: u art. surie to finid the other. l)rainage alone will often change a had road into ia good one, w iIe on the other Ihiand, the best road maiy be de trtoyed hy the alt:.ICe of good drain. The srainage pr-oblem rematins sub aiitivieb. the saie, whbethier the road be constructed of earth, gravel, shiells or ;tone. The essential feature is that the sur face should be 'crow ned ' or r'ouind ed u p towards t,b1e cnter' to thbe side, thus'~ comellin i g ithe water to how r'a Pidly from the sillrface ineco the gutIter's, w hichi shouid he constructed oin onie ori ho)th sideIs. In addition to beinig we%4'l iovert d and suri'face drained, thesurf' ace shold~h he kept as smoth as piob!'', that is, free from ruts, w heel tirack' 0or hole-i. If any of these exist, i ns.te.ad of beinig thr iowna to the sides, the water i held hack, and is either evapor~lated hy the sun or absor bed byv the miater'ial of which the road is constructed. in the latteir case the mater'ial loses its solidl ity, softens and yields to the impact, of the horses' feet and the wheels of vehicles. and like the waiteri poured on a gindistone, so) the water' pour4ed on1 a iroad surtface, wiche is niot, pr'oper'ly (1ralined, assists the gr'intl intg action of the wheels ini ri'iiing or' completely destroying the surface. W ien water is allowed to stand on a road the holes and iruts rapidly incr'ease4 in nuimbei and' size until the road inally becomues utter'ly bad. WvYhere tho road is constiructed on grade or hill the slope from the contel to the sides should be slighitly steepel than that on a level. lt, must be steel enough to lead the water into) the SidI ditches instead of allow inrg it, to rui downl the middle of the r'oad.

THE REMARKABLE DmOUGHT. 3- A Hot and Dry Aug'ast- Heated Sum 0 mor F1olI)lws a Cold and Rainy Winter. o Columbia State. - The month of August has been a If record breakor for heat and drought. 8 Since the weather bureau was estab lished 11 years ago, the month of Au t gust has never prosented as many con 0 secutivo days of hoat as it has this - year. Tho mornings and evenings I have been pleasant, for the past week - m so, but the heat during the day has been sev'lre. The whole summer has been warm, and In July abnormally so. Mr. J. W. Bauer, director of the weather bureau, hais given some In teresting facts in connection with the long dry spell. The hottes, day this year was .July 15th, when tho ther moiietr reached 105. The coldest day was one degre below z ,ro, showing i. variance of I0N degrees at this station since the year began. While tno summer has boen romark ably hot and dry, the winter was colder than usual. Tihe average ton perature for January wias 1 degree colder, and for Looruary Ii degrees colder than the normal. March, how ever, was lb triflo warmer, and April was colder than ordinarily. Tihe aver age delicienty in temperature for the entire winter wats - degrees por day, or in other words, each day this past winter was 4 degrees colder than the average for the past 11 years. Tlhe (eficency in) tempjerAture tWas 2,2 in l'' ebruary ald for the entire season 27.3 degrees. Th 1 rclipitatiol this year has been alormlal.
