Mout the Brooklyn Bridge -A Simple - Scientific Lesson With the Cone as .tits, .ilfustrator, One of the noblest brid8es _in= the world i> the atreeture which unites -New York and Broeklyn. A cgriept::fact in regard tp it, and to every -other bridge of the suspension ,type, is that, were its design turned upside down, the outline would indicate a capital for anold-fashioned arched bridge. s• itrength of the steel in the cables spanning the East River is employed to hold up a burden hanging beneath them. he lines along which the metal. is most el - Lively disposed for this duty are sub - Pft stantrally the reverse of the Iines most suit - table 'were the load not beneath the steel, but above it. As in the case of the Brooklyn Bridge, so with other familiar objects. We are apt to think of them only in tLe single aspect in which we usually see them. We :forget that the rule according to which they 0 were built or made work both wags, 10 that were these familiar things but looked at in the reverse they might be quite as in- teresting or useful Ask the next schoolboy you meet to draw for you the outline of a cone. _is sketch will give you the figure resting very naturally on its base. Were you next to ask him how an apparatus for extracting cube root could be put together he 'would very probably shake his head -and ,;,fall to thinking about .highly complicated =cogwheels and levers. And yet •a. simple cone has only to be immersed in a cylindri•. 'cal jar half full of water to extract cube `root with precision. It must, however, be Inverted ; and, that the water may rise as much as possible the jar should be only a 'trifle wider than the base of the cone, and the cone should, be tall and slender. • A cone increases in contents as the cube of its height= -Hardly any fact in Euclid is more familiar. A D in the figure has twenty-seven times and A C eight timet ,the contents of A B. Inverted and lin- ...merged in water, displacement increases in 'exactly the same ratio. Had'the cone been seen as often with its apex downward as in Its ordinary position, this little invention -would have been given to the scboolelong ago, and not, as is the -case, only the other day --Geo. lies, in New York Sun. A, Hint to Canadian Inventors. A potato spraying machine is figured in ,the Mark Lane express that may suggest ideeae to Canadian inventors- and manufac- _curers. -It is so generally necessary to :spray potatoes with the Bordeaux :mixture :and some poison added,•so as to both pre. `vent blight and kill bags, that a machine ',vent dgg.sieveral rows at a time is needed. It should also be adopted for similiar use on :tomatoes and other crops. The larger cut outlines the machine : A, hood for passing over rows -of potatoes to confine the mist - like spray, and thereby prevent waste- of the mixture ; B B B, discs for _ arresting the forced, sharp streams, and dispelling ,the;n as mist; CCC, nozzles for discharging the streams from the force -pump tubes ; D, air chamber for causing the streams to be uniform or constant, and not fitful ; E, pump; F, chain for driving pump 0, re- servoir or tank for carrying a supply of the mixture ; 1111 H, separator and elevator, an the form of. a suspended curved steel rod or saline of wood, for dividing and raising 'talker steins to an erect position; and guid- ,tng them thteugh the hood over orclear of the lower discs.
