Bamboo will form poles long and A derrick, twenty-six-feet high, made of four-inch bamboo poles, raised two fron girders, weighing together 424 pounds. The wonderful lightness of this material in proportion to its strength has excited comment of late, and new uses are constantly being made of it.

It is predicted that this ma- torial will come in gentral use for such purposes, An additional advantage is that bamboo resists decay in water as well ag in the earth, that the older and drier it gets, the more solid It becomes, and that it ean be grown for an in- credibly small sum.
