It may be noted that most of the 

 boiler explosions take place the first time 

 the boiler is fired for the season. It is 

 worth while to be sure everything is as 

 it should be before you strike the match. 



A FALLING CHIMNEY. 



The Bell Floral Co., of Franklin, Pa., 

 in combining two plant-growing estab- 

 lishments, had occasion to throw down 

 a large brick smokestack at one of them, 

 and the illustration shows how it looked 

 when falling. 



It was overthrown in much the same 

 way as a tree is felled, the brick being 

 picked out of the base on the side to- 

 ward which it was desired that it should 

 fall, while a jackscrew set on the oppo- 

 site side, exerting some pressure, assisted 

 in disturbing the chimney's equilibrium. 



The chopping down of chimneys is a 

 dangerous occupation, as they do not 

 always fall in a compact body, as this 

 one did, and it cannot be foretold in 

 which direction the brick will fly. 



THREE HOUSES. 



We are building three connected houses, 

 each 30x200, seven and a half feet high 

 to the gutter and fifteen feet to the ridge, 

 to be used for lettuce in winter and 

 planted to cucumbers in April, with solid
