A HINT TO LAND CLEARERS. As an aid to land-clearing, Mr Prank Cotton offers an idea which, from his experience, he considers should be of service, says the Sydney “Daily Telegraph.” “This method,” he says, “applies only to ground encumbered by old stumps or dry ring-barked timber. The outfit required is a crowbar, a long-handled shovel, and an ordinary inch augur, with the shank lengthened to about oft. The first step is to put down a hole about 2ft. in. deep at any convenient point on one side of the tree or stump. Then start at ground level on the opposite side, and bore a slanting hole through the tap root to a point a few inches above the bottom of the hole. Then light a small fire in the hole, and as soon as the flame draws steadily up through the augur hole, no further attention is required.”
