MILFORD ITEMS.

Twelve inches of snow fell during
last week. The Milfordites think
they have enough of the kind for the
first.
Mormon priests don't seem to give
their attempt of changing minds up
of some of our townsmen in
order to get them over to the
Mormon religion. They claim that
the Mormon religion is the only
true one in Christendom The reve.
rands don't seem to care much about
the ten commandments, polygamy
being their main object. TIE Saints
state most of. the reverands in Utah
have from 10 to Is wives. Our towns
men don't seem to care much about
the missionaries and reports stating
their success fail to con in.

prise in the form of the WEST SHORE,
An illustrated magazine published at
Portland, Oregon; pleasant because of
its beautiful engravings and interest
ing contents, and surprise that such
Il magazine can be published at two
dollars a year. The WEST SHORE
makes a speciality Of describing the
agricultural, mineral and industrial
resources of Oregon, Washington, Ida.
no, Montana and in fact the entire
West, towards which the thoughts Of
so many of our best and most energet-
ic citizens are turning, and is pyofuse-
iy illustrated with original. ehgrav-
ings of the magnificent scenery of that
region. Either feature of the maya
zine, the fine illustrations or the &C.
companying descriptions, is well worth
the subscription price. The engravings
are not merely fancy sketches, but
faithful presentations Of those grand
scenes, including the picturesque
mouth Of the Columbia River. A
years volume will afford constant
source Of pleasure in its engravings,
and will supply fund of information
about the great west to be obtained

Commenting upon the circular re-
Gently sent out by Van Dusen & Co. :,
wherein it is alleged that hard wheat
is worth 10 cents per bushel more
than the soft, the Redwood Gazette
has the following:
Some of our farmers who have
been selling hard wheat here for years
At the same price given for soft, would
like to know who gets the benefit Of
that alleged 10 cents. Certainly not
the farmer If Van wants to encour-
age the raising of No. hard-which
is in itself commendable--Why in the
name of fairness does not he set about
establishing grade Of No. l hard
such as has long existed hundred
miles or 50 north of us. We wouldn' t
for the world claim that Van buys our
hard wheat at a soft price and pockets
that 10 cents advance. but we are in
clined to think the wheat buy
ers of this section of country can
make the imaginary line where
hard wheat abounds run a good
ways south Of where it now does
if they choose to do So. Convince the
farmers that hard wheat will bring
the 10 cents premium claimed in your
pronunciamento, Mr.. Van, and there
will be no trouble in getting them to
raise it,"

Communicated, |

EDITOR RENEWALS citizen of
Brown county would like to be en-
lightened upon few points regarding
tax matters. I do not understand
how il is that so many of our poor
farmers who possess but one span Of
horses, one cow, scarcely any
farming implements and but little i'm
provements, pay more taxes than ma.
ny farmers that 1 know, who have
four or five horses, quite a lot of cattle
and plenty of machinery to run a
large farm. Now this state of affairs
is very unjust, and in my opinion an
example should be made Of few
OF those who are in the habit OF
listing but half their property to the
assessor of their respective town.
Such action would no doubt have a
tendency to equalize our taxes, and to
some extent relief the poor from pay
ing taxes for the rich.

The Glowing Sunsets.

Prof. Payne of Carlton College says
there are three theories advanced for
the peculiar red sunsets, which con
tinue in frequency and brightness al
most equal to the displays recorded in
December. He continues:
Most astronomers think that the
atmosphere was filed with volcanic
dust and gases by the great eruption
in the Straits of Sunda, Aug. %, 1883,
and the later one also off the coast of
Alaska; and that this material is the
cause of the strange play of colors
that SO frequently attend the rising
and the setting sun. 1t is no ohjec-
ton to this theory that this finely d.
vided matter, OF gaseous substance,
has been hanging in the air for six
] months; it may be seen much longer.
It has an objection to the theory that
these phenomena should have been
seen in all parts of the world at so
nearly the same time and 50 soon after
these eruptions. It is difficult to ac-
count for the rapid travel of this dust
through the atmosphere.
Another theory is that the earth is
passing through stream of meteoric
matter of considerable extent, and
that this extraneous matter is tie
cause Of what is seen. This seems
scarcely probable because, if so much
| neteoric dust were thrown in the at
| mosphere there ought also to be cor
responding unusual display of mete-
! ors. Neither are The casual meteors,
nor showers more abundant than usu-
al. Observation shows this. 1t is
| true that the earth is constantly pas
sing near some meteOric train; but
| what is now taking place, in this par
| ticular, is nothing uncommon. The
strongest evidence we have to support
! this theory is the chemical examina-
! tion of snow fall at the time of. these
curious displays. This has been done
in England, and the results show a
strong probability of meteoric iron
and nickel. If further experiments
shall verify the first the evidence sup.
porting the meteoric theory will be
strong. A number Of PHYSICISTS in
cline to this theory.
Another interesting theory has been
announced by Professor Daniel Kirk
wood, University of Indiana. He sug.
gests that the strange matter in the
atmosphere may be due to what is
known the Zodiacal Light. Every DO.
dy has noticed or ought to observe the
wonderful displays Of this phenome.
ma which has been seen on every clear
and moonless night during January,
and they will doubtless continue dur
ing February. The writer never re-
members witnessing such marked dis
plays, SO definite and so extended Oft
en- reaching quite to the meridian
from the western sky. The matter
that causes the Zodiacal Light certain
ly extends beyond the earth's orbit
from the sun, and it is Professor Kirk
woods suggestion that such matter,
and from this source may have filled
the atmosphere unusually and, thus
give rise to the flaming sunset skies.
