Yeutow StoNe PArk, August 13,— A few minutes’ drive after dinner and we come to the NORRIS OR GIBRON OEYSERS, twenty-five miles south of Monmouth Springs. Here thero is ovidently a seam in the original rock whieh runs nearly due cast and west and opens at the brink of a ridge sume G0 feot higher than the valley below. All along this crevasse, at intervals of from 10 to 20 feet, the BOILING HOT WATER bubbles up, carrying with it a solution of calcium combined with various other minerals, which has deposited a sediment much different from that de- scribed before. Here the deposit does not form in crystalized shapes of beautiful design, but simply accumu- lates in piles like the deposit of a teakettlo. Steam is constantly rising from these boiling springs and the air from them is almost sutfocating in its heat. I now look at one of the larger onee, which boils up at tho center with a volume that throws the scalding hot water up a foot or more and looks as though it came through a hole as large us a bar- rel. A basin is found here that is about 10x20 feet in size, and the water is 8o strongly impregnated with mineral substance as to make it thick; it is of a whitish color, and resembles a large quantity of quick lime slack- ing and boiling with water. Not two rods distant is another where the de- posir. has formed around the mouth until it has raised a mound like so much plaster of Paris, while in the interior there is a series of holes from two to six inches in diameter, where steam and water exudes like the blow- ing off of a safety valve on a locomo- tive, though with less force At the sides for some distance there are old vent holes where the fumes used to come out, but now are stopped, but a SCALDING HOT AIR still comes out of them. Many of these springs contain a rich deposit of sulphur, and X picked up some hand- somo spocimens of crystalized brim- stone that had formed at the mouth of these holes. The roar and noise of these boiling wells reminds me of the working of the huge lime vats at some of the large paper factories, This water runs down this side of the ridge, and has covered the entire field for an area of at least a mile square with the limey deposit, and finally runsinto asmall lake in the valley to the right, while a valley to the left is full of SPOUTING GEYSERS which act by convulsive starts, At intervals of about five minutes, a stream of water and steam bursts forth and extends up into the air for a distance of from one to twenty foet. These spouts only last for a few seconds. Some of the old and ‘‘dead” spout holes are still left and they are slightly raised around the mouth, in a circle, with a pretty round hole of six inches in Jiameter at the center WHERE SATAN BREATHES out the hot breath of hades. The de- posit throughout this great basin has been famous for years and no one knows how thick it is, and it is very dangerous to walk on in some places, The surface is hot and I burned my fingers getting some speci- mens of tho heautiful crystalized sul- phur from one of the old dried up holes, Only thivk of a whole farm boiling and roaring and_steaming 1n this way, as if iv were alive, The water in some of these basins presents the most beautiful shades of green and blue, with an occasional one that is rich in sulphur, that has a gold- en hue with others of a pearly white color, all combining to make a picture that cannot be imitated by the most skillful artist, Farther along the ridge I come to a spring with a liquid AS RED A8 BLOOD with some white streaks in 1t. I con- clude that the color is due to the ex- cess of iron held in solution. A little below this is a half acre covered with spontaneous pits of boiling lime, so thick in many instances that it can hardly bubble, Still further onisa fountain of clear hot water that rises some two feet above the surface, through an orifice the size of my arm. Across the valley ubout midway is the MOTHER GEYSER of all, The strangest of all things on earth is here beheld. The hole is about four feet in diameter, sur- rounded by a slight depression caused by the wash. The hot water gushes and spurts up three times in a minute toa height of at least twenty foet, and chen goes down, and the most of the water thrown out runs back again into it. The spring covers a radius of 60 feet, and sparkles in the sunlight, showing all the colors of the rainbow, making A MAJESTIO SCENE, At the west side is another boiling spring, which acts as if it was deeply in trouble, and beats and thumps so fast that it can be heard for some d tance, as if it was trying to break bonds, Here we find “‘The Twins.” They flounder and fosm for two or three hours, then take a rest for about the same time, Near by is & hot sulphur spring, and still in a few feet further on is A PAINT POT, where the oxides of various minerals have colored the deposil, making a strange phenomenon, The water has a peculiar taste, slightly salty, and strongly impreg- nated with sulphur and irou. Nearer the base of the mountain, to the left is & sulphur spring that is very docile for a while and then boils like fury. 8o much agitation is here found as to dissolve the mineral below to such an ex’ent as to keep the waters in the basin of a milky color, while the fumes are strongly impregnated with sulphuretted hydrogen. This basin is some fifty feet in diameter, and an egg will cook in it ina fow seconds. Still higher up the hill is found a large orack in the rocks, like the re- sult of a young earthquake, where the steam gushes out like an exhaust pipe of an engine. The roaring aud splashing of the boiling water is plain- ly heard down in_the crevice, where onee a continual flow wasin operation. Still higher and upon the summit of tho ridge is the orater of an extinct voleano: hot air and steam pours out and is visible for many miles around. Traly this must be THE CHIMNEY OF HELL if thero isone. The roaring is tre- mendous, The orater was about fity teet in diameter, but the lower side hns bioken away to allow tho excoss of water that formerly roso hore to run down into the valley. There has been no water thrown out of the hole for several years, Itis 80 hot near it that cne caunot stand close by, AN EARTHLY ABUESS of this character cannot heal very quickly and eruptions are continuaily breaking out at various places and assuming the same general nature, but I think the time is near at hand when this will ali heal over and the **Norris Geyser” will bo a thing of the past. . The general actionjot thess sprigns, together with the decrease in number and amount of ‘‘dried up” ones, con- fiem this idea. The country about here has a very rolling surface, mostly covered, with a thick growth of pines. Upon wander- ing about I find two more craters, or VOLCANOES' MOUTHS. The first one is now boiling with a thick, lead-colored, putty-like mass, and the other is knowu as THE EMERALD, and is indeed a great curiosity, Here the crater is filled with scalding hot water, as clear as a orystal, and the huge mouth is seen to somo depth, showing the rooky edges. The water here is pleasant, thongh too hot to drink, Over the hill are more wells of the same nature. One of the most interesting is THE MINUTE MAN, which flows and spouts out every min- ute. Hore tho water is thrown up about fifteen feet and then retircs. Further on are several acres that once were of the eame nature, but now are retired, and have wholly or partially ceased flowing. The spouting of these wells is simi- lar to that & three-inch hydrant, when held under water. On further are the noted craters of soveral voleanoes, among them THE MONARCII, which is of about the same size as those already described. The rock is lime and silicic acid. There are two caves about 2x12 feet, where the wa- ter is constantly boiling with terrific force. At intervals of several days this crater ‘‘gets mad,” as it were, and throws this hot water in the air from 75 to 100 feet high, Below are THE PAINT POTS, These look like a cauldron kettle half full of a drab colored paint, boiling and bubbling like so much soap. All of these holes have some characteristic name, but the $35 guides have de- wost of them, 80 the casual ohserver may guess at if, or make one, as he chooses. These wonderful boiling springs abound much more plenti- fully than I have described. I have only noted the more striking ones. They are all of tha same nature, and the short space of time only allowed me a hasty examination, I cannot close this letter without noting the surroundings of OUR CAMP, which was located for the night at a Horseshoe Bend in the Geyser river, where a thicket of pines marks a rest- ing spot on the prairie. The spouts of ateam are seen coming from the many springs of the foothills, in all directions. - The Goyser meadow, in the zenter of which we are camped, contains about three square miles, and is surrounded by very abrupt rocky cliffs of lava from 75 to 100 feet high, The tops of these cliffs are covered with a dense growth of pine timber, with apparently no earth for thom to grow on. The sides of other moun- tains are also covered with pines, On the creek adjacent some BEAVERS are at work gnawing the young troes, The sand Lill cranes aro” warbling (1) sonorous faotes that echo through the valley. The night was cloudy and rain is threatened, but the morning looks brighter, though all hands shiver about a camp fire, crowding the cook away. At 7 a. m. we start on another days drive of sight-seeing. ¥, If Yon are Ruined in health from any cause, espocially from the use of any of the thousand nostrums that promise so largely, with long fictitious testimonials, have no fear. Resort to Hop Bitters at' once, and in a short time you will have the most robust and blooming health, Corn Fodder vs, Hay. Waldo F, Brown, an intelligent farmer of Ohio, belives that the corn atalks and leaves properly saved on an acre in corn, is as valuable to feed stock us the hay rasied on the same amount of ground, In the Farm and Fireside he says that the result of ex- periments have been such a8 to con- viuce me that bright corn fodder is good for stock, and by this I mean both palatable and nutritious as any hay that was ever made. I have never yet found horses or cattle that did not prefer it to hay, and aftercarefully noticing its effects I believe it to be better than any hay, I have found it very wmuch cheaper than hay, as it cost nothing but the saving, and this ia not a great deal more than the har- vesting and housing a orop of hay. 1 count, after caroful experiment, an acre of corn fodder as worth as much 88 & ton of good, bright hay, and the cost of putting fodder in the barn o1 steck is not more than $2.60 por acre. This is the most it bas cost me for the last five years when 1 have hired it done by the job. My neighbor, “the squire,” has reduced the cost largely by hirtug men by the day and working with them. Wecut ten hill square, which gives twenty- seven shock per acre, and I pay b cents per shoek for cutting, which make 81 The husking and binding costs me G cents per shock, and it costs about 65 cents an acre to the barn or stack. This makes the entire ocost $3.62; but as our corn must be husked anyhow, we can deduct the expense of it from this, which will bring the cost of the fodder down to less than 82,50 per ton. 1 estimate a ton of fodder to an acre—I mean net fodder. Repeated weighing shows that the husk and blades below the ear will weigh about one-fourth pound to the stalk, and tho blades above the ear about half as wuch. With 2,700 hills to the acre, we should only necd alit- tle over two stalks to the hill to give us at ton of net fodder to the asre. There is another thingin connection with fodder foeding which I consider an advantage although many think otherwise, and that isthelarge amount of waste it furnishes us to use as an sorbant, I have weighed repeatedly a ration of fodder for my cattle and then weighed the refuse, and I find they eat 70 per cent of it. The 30 per cent lefi is bulky, and as the pith of a corn stalk is just like a sponge, it is an excellent absorbent, and if out into lengths of six inches, or less, makes one of the cloanest and best beds tor stock that can be found on the farm, Kven when fod long, have no trouble whatover in working 1t into manure. We carry the wast each day and spread it over the mauure heap, and when properly managed, corn stalks are richer in organic ma- terials than other waste on the farm, a ton of the stalks contatning nearly tiftoen pounds of phosphoric acid and over eight pounds of potash, 1 spoke of stocking fodder, and I am sure that fow farmers know how casy it can bo done, for the majority of them leave their fodder in shock till it is wanted, which is a miserable plan, for when winter once sots in it is either frozen to the ground or the fields are 8o muddy as to make it very dis- agreeable work handling it, What- ever else is neglectod, I would aavise that all the fodder be secured before winter. 1 find the cheapost and best way is to bind it with rye atraw, and 1 always keep a supply on ha do not allow the grain to r pun‘ but cut the rye whon in blossom, as the straw is much moro pliablo and tougher, and we scatter no rye seed when wo sow wheat after corn, as we are obliged to more or less each year. The dif- ference of the profits of two farmers, one of whom saves his twenty acres of fodder each year, and the other grows (wenty nores of timothy for hay, will amounc to a handsome sum in'ten years. The farmor who pas- tures his corn stalks is almost sure to damago his land by tramping, while he who cuts will keep his stock at the barn and have a liboral manure pile. Rub ItIn.
