THEPE0PLE'SPAPER.
The
SALT LAKE
DAILY HERALD,

The remarkable success of The papeI
III the past, as manifested by its large
and steadily growing subscription
list. its increasing advertising patron
age and the expressions of goodwill
towards the journal which greet us
from all quarters, convinces the pub
fishers that they are doing what they
set out to do-namely, furnish
newspaper that the people would like,
and therefore support. The HERALD,
as in the past, will be the peoples
paper. Independent in a political
sense, it will always be found
on the side of the people, outspoken
on questions affecting the rights of the
masses; battling for local self-govern-
ment and the largest liberty to indi-
viduals consistent with public good;
laboring for a pure, honest and ecc-
nomic administration of government;
treating public matters dispassion-
ately and employing language calcu-
lated to enlighten the reason of men
rather than influence their passions.
and working for peace and the de-
velopment of the resources of the ter
ritory, instead of trying to create strife
and retsrd progress. With our in
creased facilities for gathering news,
both by telegraph and mail, the en-
ployment of larger number of cor
respondents i'll different sections of
the country, and the better arrange
ment of all the many details of the
establishment, we confidently promise
to make the SALT LAKE DAILY
better paper than ever.

Why the Sky Appears Blue.

"Why is the sky blue?" is a question
which has often been asked, but never
satisfactorily answered. Helmholtz
offered an explanation which depended
on the reflection of solar light by the air
particles in the atmosphere. These
particles being very minute would re-
fleet preferably the shortest waves OF
light, namely blue waves, while they
would allow the longer waves, CORE
spending to green and red light, to
pass through them; just as a log of
wood floating on the surface of still
water would. throw off the tiny waves
caused by a falling drop in its neigh.
borhood, while the same log in long
ocean swells would be tossed to and fro
without noticeably impeding the pro-
gress of the waves.
DIR. Z. l.. Nichols, in the Philosophical
Magazine for December, has PROFOUND
ed another view, which has much to
recommend it. According to Young
and Helmholtz's theory of color-impres-
sion there are in the eye three sets of
nerve-termini, one set chiefly influenced
by the red, another by the green, the
third by the violet rays. The impression
of color is the resultant of the intensities
of these three effects. The impression
upon these nerves is not directly proper
tional to the intensity of the ray, the
different nerve-termini being subject to
different laws. For very feeble rays the
"violet " nerves are very sensitive,
while the " green and cred" nerves
scarcely act at all. As the light
increases in intensity the "red ~
and "green" nerves ;. increase in
activity, while the "violet" nerves
become tired and dazzled. For rays of
dazzling brilliancy the "red (" nerves
are in their most sensitive condition.
Thus, of the simple colors, as the bright
ness increases, red and green change to
yellow, blue becomes white. Daylight
at ordinary intensities affects the three
sets of nerve-termini equally; the re-
sultant impression is whiteness. Now
daylight is simply the light of the sun
weakened by manifold diffuse refec-
tons. The direct rays of the sun, as we
let them fall upon any colorless object,
appear also white light; but on at
at noon on clear day to gaze
into the suns face the impression is of
binding yellow. 1t is not that the di-
rect rays differ in composition from
diffuse daylight but that the ''violet"
can not transmit the action of
such strong light. The moon, with
less illuminating power than
the sun, seems bright, and is far bright
er than the open sky. In passing from
the intensity of the moons rays to those
reaching us from corresponding bit of
the open sky, we may, perhaps, take a
step as great as that between the bright
ness of the sun and moon. In general,
white light will appear bluer and bluer
as its intensity diminishes, and this law
will apply to the skies; as the light they
reflect becomes fainter and fainter they
will increase in blueness, even though
the light by the process of reflection
suffer no change in composition.-Lon-
don academy.

FARM TOPICS.
TREATMENT OF DIFFERENT SOILS

TREATMENT OF DIFFERENT SOILS.
Soils while naturally depending for
their material elements upon the source
from which they are themselves derived,
at the same time often rely more upon
artificial treatment than the original
source for their fertility. There are,
indeed, few lands of such character as
to be permanently independent of the
aid of applied fertilizers; therefore the
necessity for knowledge of the chemical
constituents of soil in order to know
what crops it will best grow and what
elements of plant food it requires.
Soils composed of coarse land, while
they may be rich in mineral elements,
are, in the absence of judicious treat
ment, continual source of disappoint-
ment to the cultivator. They allow a
rapid descent of water through them,
are incapable of supplying moisture
from below by capillary attraction and
are deficient in the power of absorbing
moisture or fertilizing gases from the
atmosphere. Fertilizers applied to
these lands are of little or no use be-
cause they are not retained. The con-
sequence is failure of crops, especially
IN times of drouth. These soils, how
ever, with proper management have
their mechanical defects corrected and
their value many times enhanced. Fall
blowing when there is a clay subsoil
within reach is very beneficial, because
it brings up the clay to mingle with the
sand surface by the action of frosts and
rains. A green crop or two turned I'M
der further assists in stiffening the tex
ture of the land, improving its capilla-
~ action and facilitating root action.
When there is not clay subsoil within
reach of the pillow, the use of lime in
conjunction with vegetable matter turn
ed under is advised as one of the most
effectual and economical means for the
amelioration of the land.
The successful management and cul-
tivation of clay or stiff lands are much
more laborious than the lighter soils.
Clay soils under proper treatment, how
ever, endure long and yield great va
ricty of crops. They are generally
adapted to the cereals, make good grass
and pasture lands and grow fine fruits.
Clay lands are deficient in veg
etable matter and are there
fore greatly benefited by an
application of the same. Lime is also
beneficial to such lands, assisting to
remedy their stiffness and tenacity. Any
substances which serve as divisors, pre-
venting the adhesion of the particles OF

Why AIphonse and His Papa Died.

The death of the deeply-lamented
Alphonse, pet of the Parisians and para
gon of all orang-outangs, and of his
affectionate sire has been followed by a
sort of pilgrimage to the scene of their
last appearance, where their mortal
remains have been " set up artistically
by the best professors of the art of stuff
ing. One Of the literary gentlemen who
was assisting at the melancholy scene
has described an interview which he had
on the spot with Cadet, the inspector
of animals" at the Jardin d. Acclima-
ton, and has reproduced, for the edit
cation of the public, the theory which
that worthy originated as the cause OF
death in the father and son. According
to this version of the affair the catastro-
phe was the result of nothing more nor
less than love and regret. The mother
of Alphonse had inspired both her COM
panions with so warm an affection that
life became insupportable to both OF
them when they were carried on, leav-
ing her in the ancestral forest.
1t was in vain that M. Cadet was con-
fronted with the verdict of the learned
men who had assisted at the post NOR
tenn examination, and held sort OF
coroner's inquest over the body of AL
phonse. These gentlemen had been
pleased to declare that the cause OF
death was pulmonary disease brought
on by the rigor of climate never ia
vorable at the best of times to the health
of the monkey tribes, and most unusual
ly trying to them during this particular
winter. But the inspector OF animals
was also present at the inquiry, and OBJ
served the operations of the surgeons,
and he declares that there were neither
tubercles in the lungs nor symptoms OF
disease or injury in any vital organ. lie
then cites the gestures, looks, cries, OF
language as he would call it, of his two
friends, both when they arrived and up
to the time of their death, compares
them accurately with the actions and be-
havior that human beings display when
afflicted by grief, and concludes with a
positive assurance that had it not been
for the absence of mamma the pair
would even now be alive. Cadet is
believer not in the Pythagorean doctrine
of the migration of souls, but the theo.
nv still more fiattering to the animal
world, that they are endowed with rea-
sonable and immortal souls.-London

Electrical Storms.

HE narrow escape which the Cathe-
dral of Notre Dame in Paris recently
had from destruction by lightning, and
the unusual frequency of thunder storms
in various parts of Europe, are attract
ing attention. During the summer the
British isles have suffered severely, and
the hail, which often accompanies cleo
trical disturbances, has played sad havoc
with the kitchen gardens in the neigh
borhOod of London, and with the glass
under which the rarer kinds of flowers,
fruits, and vegetables are grown. From
all parts of France come reports of ex-
traordinary disturbances, and earth
quakes have been remarkably frequent
during the present year. Unfortunately
the damages have not been confined to
the vegetable kingdom. An electrician
who has published a book on electric
storms and the best method of averting
their dangers gives some figures show
ing the loss of life caused by lightning
in Europe and Russia. During the first
half OF the last decade 1,452 men and
SlS women were killed, and 1902 con-
fiagrations took place. In Prussia,
from 1869 to 1877, 1904 deaths by light
ming occurred. In Austria, during q
period of eight years, 100 lives were
lost, and 10000 fires were caused. The
French have suffered less from the
"bolts from heaven" for in the last ten
years only $50 have been killed by light
ming, of whom 243 were women. The
English returns are incomplete, but it
is estimated that on an average 100
Englishmen are killed every year by
lightning. The almost total neglect of
the use of lightning-rods in England is
remarkable. This carelessness seems
the more reprehensible when the words
of Fuller, the church historian, are
called to mind. In 1865 he wrote:
"There was scarce great abbey in
England which at last was not burned
down by lightning from Heaven" Yet
at the present time st. Paul's alone, of
all the public edifices in the United
Kingdom, is thoroughly protected. Many
of the lofty spires of the cathredals have
no conductors at all, and not one of
them is safe. Several parts of Windsor
Castle, which from its exposed situation
is particularly liable to be struck, are
unprovided with lightning-rods. --Neao
