Gott day last 'week a young man near
Brussels was employed to take the flax -
'stokers home to Brussels, and he got a
lot of bay that was as dry as the hot sun
and dry tveather could make it, on his
new hay rack. He thotight he would like
to see bow quick about' 25 men could get
off his waggon, so he drepped a lighted
match into the dry hay. Every man
jumped for his life, the young man in-
cluded, and but for a neighbor, who took
in the position, crossed the field, and
stopped 'the team, they would have ran
away. By the extra efforts of the men,
the horses were detached from the wag-
gon, and only got a little singeing. He
had to bey a. new hay rack, and bathe
some repairs done to his waggon, but he
is a wiser man now than he WAS,
