Section C.-Che1niStry.

The first paper presented in the fore
noon session in this department was 'the
composition of American wheat and corn
by Clifford Richardson which was read in
the absence of the author by H. W. Wiley.
A table of the comparative average COM
position of wheat in the United States and
Canada was given, in which Minnesota
wheat stands as follows:
Water 11.33, ash 1 33, starch, dextrine
and sugar, 1888, crude fibre, 2.20, albumi-
noids 13. 21, nitrogen 2.12, highest album
inoids 1856 and lowest albuminoids 13. 90.
The average results were obtained from
three analyses and the weight of 100 kern
els ascertained to be 2,238 which is the
lowest in the table, the highest being the
Colorado wheat of 1881, its rank being
4,833. w. A. Noyes explained that
the average of the Minnesota wheat
on the table was the average
of three grades of Fife wheat, and that it
does not correctly give the general average
weight of the wheat throughout the state
by any means.
The next paper was entitled Twelve
months of Lysimeter Record at the New
York Agricultural Experiment Station" by
Ell. Sturtevant. The rainfall in that Sec
tion for the year 1928 was given as
21.947 inches. Three lysimeters were en-
ployed, the drainage from each being
respectively 1855, $3.50 and 1926. The
soil contained within the Iysimeter con-
sisted of a dark clay loan, moderately
friable for the first eight inches. Calcu-
lating to the acre he deduced that out of
IA, TAB barrels of water in the rainfall,
the bare surface evaporated 1925 barrels,
the stirred surface evavopated 1905 bar
rels, or difference of 2,310 barrels to be
ascribed to the influence of the stirred
surface. He showed that while sod land
allowed 11.98 per cent. of the rain fall to
percolate, the bare surface allowed 1888
per cent, and the cultivated surface 81. 80
per cent. to pass through. Or, expressed
in terms of more interest to agriculturists,
the evaporation from the various areas
was 1892 per cent. for No. 1, 74.12 per
cent. for No. 2, and 62.57 per cent. for
No. 3.
american IButters and their Adultera-
tions," was the next subject, by h. w.
Wiley, and it was listened to with intense
interest.
The color of butter is no sure index to
its quality.r7The English used more salt
in butter than we do, and it was more
profitable to the maker for he could sell
for twenty-five cents in the butter the salt
which cost him about two cents.
Many questions were proposed by the
members which Mr.. Wiley answered. The
subject proved so interesting that it was
concluded to resume its discussion on
Monday, to which day the section ad-
iOurned

Section E-GeOLO01J,

Section E, devoted to Geology, was in
SESSION all day. 1t opened in the morning
with the presentation of an instructive
paper on the Ancient Glaciation of North
America; its extent, character and teach
ings, by Prof. j. T. Newberry.
A map showing the extent of glacial ac-
tion in North America served to illustrate
the speakers remarks.
The other papers upon this subject were
Exploration of the Glacial Boundary be-
tween New Jersey and Illinois," by G. F.
Wright; "The Terminal Moraine west of
Ohlo," by I. G. Chamberlain; "sReIation
of the Glacial Dam at Cincinnati to the
Terrace in the Upper Ohio and its Tribu-
taries," by j. G. White, and several others
of equal interest.
Lake basins received considerable atten-
ton, and brought to their legs several of
the savants, who iEterrogated Mr.. Cham
berlain, and advanced theories different
from that given by him in regard to the
formation of the depressions. One mem
Der said his hypothesis is that the great
lakes were originally prolongations of the
ocean. Among the auditors was Hon. Ig-
natlus Donnelly, who seemed to be in
tensely absorved in the discussion which
arose.
GLACIAL DAM.
j. G. White next submitted q paper on
the Relation of the glacial dam at Gin
cinAati to the terrace in the upper Ohio
and its tributaries" which was read by
Prof. Winchell, of our state university.
GLACIAL EPOCH.
A ten minute paper was next read by
Warren Upham on ''Changes in the Cur
rents of the Ice of the last Glacial Epoch
in Eastern Minnesota" The paper has
been previously read before the Minneso-
ia Academy of Natural Sciences, and is
therefore considered unnecessary to re-
produce in these columns.
On motion the section adjourned until
Monday next.
The afternoon session in this section
opened with an extemporaneous address by
7. G. Chamberl1n, of the United, States
geological survey, on the
sUB-AoUEoUs oLAYs
found bordering the great lakes. He also
touched briefly on stratifed gravel depos-
its and stony clays, explaining their vari-
Gus characteristics. With the aid of maps
he gave his own personal observations in
regard to boulders, ice drifts and moraines
west of the Ohio and Missouri rivers and
in the Green Bay valley, Wisconsin. Forty
five miles west of the Mississippi he found
no boulders of eastern origin or any COM
posed of foreign materials.

ABNORMAL ORCHID,

An all day session of the section devoted
to Biology was opened at IL o'clock. The
first paper presented was entitled can Alb
normal Orchid" by Prof. W. R. Dudley,
and it was replete with descriptive matter.
FLORA OF NEW YORK.
The next paper was also by this author
upon the "Origin of the Flora of New
York" The deductions drawn from OBJ
servations made by the author in northern
and southern New York were that the
waters from the Genesee valley originally
flowed south and in their course carried
seeds from the northern to the southern
part of the state, but did not deposit them
near the central part of the common
wealth, as there is a distinctive dividing
line between the flowers that abound in
the northern and southern sections of the
state.
BOTANICAL.
Development of the Dandelion Flow
er," by J. NJ. Coulter, was the next paper,
and was of great interest to botanists, and
was very complete elucidation of the
subject treated.

the discussion which followed.
POISONOUS sEAwEED.
A supposed poisonous seaweed in the
lakes of Minnesota, by j. G. Arthur, was
of especial interest to Minnesotians. Mr..
Arthur stated that year ago the state
board of health was called to the mortality
that had occurred among cattle at Water
vile, caused, as was supposed, by drinking
water from Lakes Dakota and Tetonka.
Samples of the lake water and the vegeta-
tion that grew in them was furnished to
the state university, but upon investiga-
ton both were found to be incapable of
poisoning animals. Mr.. Arthur visited
the lake little later in the year and found
the water filled with little balls of a
greenish color about the size and having
the general appearance of turnip seed in a
state of decomposition. The trouble was
supposed to have its origin in these balls,
but inasmuch as the balls were not in a tit

THE MAY TORNADO,

This section did not meet in the fore
noon, but at 2 o'clock met and listened to
a number of the most interesting papers
yet presented to the association. One was
by Prof. Frick upon the tornado of
May 18th in Gasconda, Franklin, Warren,
Montgomery and st. Charles counties Mis-
souri,. This tornado, divided into three
distinct branches, proceeded on a north
westerly course. The paths were
illustrated upon neatly prepared
charts. Until the tornado reached the
point represented in the chart, it passed
through a deep forest, breaking down
massive trees. Mr.. Quincy's tenement
house and stables were razed. The lower
portions of the houses, however, were not
destroyed. Some of the trees were two
feet in diameter; some were torn out by
the roots, and others twisted so that the
whole trunk was in splinters no
larger than a pen holder.
The ground was swept clean
as floor in some instances. In some

GUARANTEE STATEMENT.

A twenty mile line, he calculated
would reach at least ten farms, and the
cost would be about $50 per mile. The
farmers should be instructed as to the
method of operating the lines at their
respective stations. The Missouri farmers
are already contemplating putting this
system into practice, so that they have
daily or hourly communication with sig
nal stations. code of signals will !be
adopted, and made by the use of tooth
wheel. By thif means it will be a sim
pie matter to communicate information
respecting the markets, so that they will
know when to take certain products to
market. It is matter of vital import
ance, and should be prosecuted vigor-
ously.
One gentleman stated that in Germany a
system of hanging signals upon church
steeples is now in practical use.

JUPITER.
Prof. G. w. Hugh, of Lowville, pre-
sented very interesting paper upon ply
sical phenomena on the planet Jupiter.
The professor profusely illustrated the
phenomena under treatment in blackboard
drawings. His paper was the result of his
observations made for four years,
time he has particularly devoted to study
ing this planet. He described the ap-
pearance and disappearance OF satellites.
The giant planet of the solar systsm to
which the telescope is directed, has been
attentively observed for years by each sue
ceeding generation of astronomers. Not
withstanding the enormous outlay of labor
involved in its observations, its varied
phenomena has hitherto continued to baf-
fie the observer. The hypothesis advanced
in relation to the physical condition of its
surface are based upon insufficient and de-
fective data. In order that future as
tronomers may profit by our work, one
method of observation is needed. 1t is
not enough to indicate the point of spots
or markings ON the surface by mere eye es-
Inmates or by means of sketches made at
the telescope. On the contrary, all salient
features should be located by measure
ments.
The ancient observers advanced the theo-
ry that no planet was subject to sudden
and extraordinary disturbance. The belts
were alleged to have been found or to dis
appeared in the space of an hour or two.
This doctrine has been usually received
and has been found in astronomical his
tory. We do not question the fact of these
sudden changes, but We believe the deduc-
tions are not correct.
TOTAL SOLAR ECLIPSE.
DR.. j. Jansen being absent, his paper
upon observations of the total solar eclipse
oe May 9th. 1883, was read by Prof. East
man, but inasmuch as a previous paper
upon this same topic has been given space
in abstract in these columns its publication
is considered unnecessary.
The session closed with an instructive
lightning calculating paper, entitled some
hitherto undeveloped properties of squares

condition for analysis, he had been unable
either last or this year to positively deter
mine how highly poisonous they
were. Several other gentlemen
in the room said that they
were familiar with the presence of these
small balls in the waters of our own lakes;
notably in lakes Latoka, Lakota, White
Bear and Phalen.

diately after the adjournment of the gen
eral sessions, Vice-President Mason, of
Washington, presiding.
Messrs. H. W. Holmes, of Washington,
A. w. Butler, Ind, and ". McAdams, ILL.,,
were elected to nominate delegates to the
International association.
GAMES OF THE JAPANESE.
The first paper was on "The IndoorGames
of the Japanese" by Prof. E. S. Morse,
of Massachusetts. In speaking of some
of the customs, and habits, superstitions,
etc., of the Japanese, the speaker said
there were many similarities with the
American Indian. AS a rule the games of
the Japanese are more complex than with
US. More of their games are of a gentle
and quiet character, the more vigorous
games of cricket, ball, ETC., being little
known. AS he proceeded the speaker, with
the aid ofthe vice president, illustrated
some of their favorite hand games, afford
ing no little amusement. They do not
seem to have games of cards as with US,
the substitute being something similar to
our game of authors. Their game Of chess
is on much larger and more complex
scale than ours, as are most of their intel
lectual games.
MOUNDS OF CAHoKIA.
The Great Mounds of Cahokia was the
next paper. by Prof. VIM. McAdams. In
explanation of the paper diagram of the
Mississippi river from the junction with it
of the Illinois river to st. Louis, and COM
prising distance some eighteen by ten
miles, and is perhaps the creation of
more mounds than any other portion
of the country, and the mound of Cahokia,
which occupies central position, is also
the largest yet found. The speaker said
he had spent the past two years in thorough
ly investigating these mounds and was
thoroughly convinced they are artificial
formations. There were in the section
named some two hundred of these mounds,
some having height of thirty feet, and
all in very good state of preservation.
The mounds are generally some distance
back from the river and on high ground,
and would seem to indicate that the
builders had enemies. The locality
is rich in relics, flint axes, and war weap-
ons. The mounds are generally square with
fiat tops, that of Cahokia embracing
about an acre and half.
Gen. Bross, of Illinois, followed with a
brief statement confirming the statement
of Mr.. McAdams. He also stated that in

upon plan for state weather service.
He suggested two lines, state central
