lucid disoription of it is difficult, bnt a
vary good substitute could be made' by
nailing a strip about two feet long on
the sides of a stone" boat, near the front
end. Upon theso fasten an ordinary
pair of oar looks, place in eaoh lock an
old proem, hitch on tho horses and away
you go. Drive between the rows, manip-
wl-ita tho broom go,as to land eaoh -bug
under tha boat, and. they will ba crushed,
if hi» bngsbip will hunt a atone tb *tand
on when the ma-ahm-a passes over him*.
