IIow many instances can you call to mind of crops grown by different farmers on soils equally well prepared and equally fertile, that have yielded widely varying quantities of grain, the difference being in favor of the earliest sown.' With the outcrop this is often the case it cannot be sown too early. It require* the rain and cool weather of the spring months to develop vigor and strength to push it through the heat and drouth of the summer to a bountiful harvest.

Miuia^cinviit orjlollers— Kxploslons. \\'e have rece1ved:itjVough Mr. W. P. Sleiisby, of "Now ifork cit^, un article on boiler cxplosious which1 contains some statements worthy the attention of those t.who luivo steam, boiler.i in charge. .Owing t^, the ,press of matter on our columns I we liavo not room i'or the eomuiuu,ig^tion in its entirety, but give the priueipal points. lie ridicules the idea tliat explosions are inevitable, and that they cannot be prevented. Steam is a powerful hut governable element, not a mysterious or un-

I known power. 1'ho great cau.-c of Explosions, iu his opinion, can be laid to the material, workmanship, size, and form of the boilers. A small boiler will withstand more pressure to the square inch

latter is well.stayed,.witlj bolts. The bottoms of large boilers' are1 subjected to from three to five pounds more pressure to the sijuare inch thau the upper surface owin^ to the weight of the waterl.

When a portion of a boiler becomes red hot its strength is- lJuphi/cIl 'hlid'it is in a state to yield to a gradually increasing pressure and also to a suddenly produced force similar to that generated by the metamorphosis oi a solid into a gas. hen the solid body of the water gets below the iron surface exposed to the heat of thiTujfiiae'o' Ihere remains a foaming matter composed of about oiie-third water, aud two-third.s steam, a thick, saturated. moist steam, incapable of keep-

-i nig the iron cool, hut capable of being

,f nnl

imm*™

by the heat into superheated

vcr

rapidly. Thus lowness of

.. wati'r leerea«'s the strength of the iron

Stripes,^ ind increases the pressure of steam.^

The idea that if a portion of a boilea begins to give way lhe rupture acts as Safety valve is not correct. When the iron begins to go it requires much less iorce to complete the rupture, just as when forcing the band throuirh a sheet of

KI

I•''« material be once

parted, very little force is required to 'SC!IM'

he deposition ol scale preventing lhe

Tickings/'vV'-r'^c!}! water from reaching the iron is another

cause of explosion, although the water

retained at the iel(uisite hight.

Hoys' wear, with all the Suddenly opening throttles when start­

ing should never, except in cases of great emergency, he practiced. It Is similar to filing a gun by letting the steam rush suddenly by at a high pressure into the cylinder. It there meets with an opposing Iorce, and like the exploded gas in a gun, recoils- with a force similar to that which it struck the piston.

Boilers should be cleaned as often as once a month, aud if the water is verv dirty, more frequeully, as the dirt held in solution does not pass olT with the steam, but is deposited.

A boiler will make steam faster when the piessiire is high than when it is low,

with the same fire, so it is economical to carry a high pressure—even if it is not necessary to do the work—and to work the steam expansively.

1

Steam engines running at high speeds returu a less percentage of power in pro­

portion to the steam used than engines running slower, as high velocities decrease the power of the steam.

ubular boilers make steam faster with less fuel then others, and if properly eonbtructed and cared l'or will last as long

The crank pin of. an engino travels over one-third faster than the piston, which accounts for the utievemiess of the power at certaiu parts of the stroke. The piston is never atjjialf^.tjj»ke.jWheu,, the crank is vertical
