A 10-inch lron casing galvanized and punctured 50 as to admit water, was sunk in the Bravel to a depth of 15 feet. In this a pump was placed with 5-Inch cylinder, the steck projecting about six feet above the surface of the ground. Over this was placed a 20-foot windmill mounted on 2 40-foot tower. Since its erection there has always been suf- ficient wind to keep it running rapidly, and the pond can be filled at the rate of 1000 gallons per hour. In order to secure pressure for distributing water about the house and barn, watering trees, flowers, grass, running a foun- tain, washing buggies, watering stock, ete., 2 stand pipe system Was con- structed. I secured 26 feet of 10-inch siuivanized casing, bolted it to the top of the pump stock, had a plug fitted to 'row Into the spout of the pump, fas- toned a 21-2-inch waste pipe on the riside of the larger pipe, tapped the inp stock 10 inches above the sur- ice, and the preblem was solved.

This is one 2f the fables that a famous story-teller relates. One day a wealthy man called upon Nasartin Hodja to ask him how much he would charge to educate his son. "Three hundred piasters," said the Hod fa. "What are you talking about?" ex- claimed the man, "That is too much. I can buy six donkeys for 300 plasters." "That is well said," answered Nasar- tin, "but if you buy six donkeys with your 300 plasters Instead of educating your son you will be master of seven donkeys, including your son.'
