CALIFORNIA AND oREsoS RAILROAD
LAND GRANT.


We do hot believe IN land grants or other
subsidies to railroads. Where land grants
have been given we think .5ey should have
been restricted to the proceeds of the sales
OF the odd sections within prescribed lin.
its, and the land held by tSs Government
until disposed Of 10 actual settlers at s. 50
per acre. This is ali that was originally
contemplated to be given in aid of
grants. A bill is now before Con-
gress to restore urearned land grants
snd it is probable that many millions of
acres OF land will thus be returned for the
use and bsnefis of actusl settlers Among
the grants included in such bill as un-
earned within the time specified in the Act
of Congress making the grant is that to
the California and Oregon Railroad, made
in 1866, and lapsed because of the failure
to complete the road in 1879. While it is
true that the road has not been completed
to the Oregon line within the time specified
in the grant, we are yet disposed to believe
that this grant has been fairly earned by
the Central Pacific Railroad Company, if
building roads through q country can COM
pensate for such land grants. The grant
contemplated and required the construc-
Sacramento valley. The company
have constructed two - one on the
east side of the Sacramento river, and
another on the Yves. siae. Psoh=hlv the
number of miles required by this land
grant has been completed. and to the bene-
fit of the Sacramento valley much greater
than was originally contemplated, We do
not believe the company can afford to leave
the road uncounected with tine Oregon
road, if the land grant is declared forfeited.
Their preparations in the Sacramento val.
ley for through connections are too elsbor.
ate, But for all that, we are willing they
shall have the land upon the completion of
the road, for the reason that we believe it
will be OF vast benefit to northern Califor-
MIA. The commercial interests of the Sac.
rsmento valley will be greatly benefited By
railroad connection with the Northern Pa.
ciic Railroad. We are well aware that
any argument in favor of lard grants to the
Central Pacific is anti-D Democratic, but we
make this particular case an exception to
the general rule, for the reason above
stated, that the railroad company has con.
centrsted miles enough of road in the Sac
ramento valley to have earned this grant of
land had it been extended toward the Ore
gon line.

morton OF GLACIERS.-It has been
known for come time that there are long
periods of time during which the Swiss
glaciers advance down or recede up their
beds. Thus, in l74l they were advancing,
bat it was reported that in 100 it was
possible TO walk from Chamounix to Cour-
meyer over the Col de Gcant without
touching ice. They advanced all last GEN.
tury so far as is known, and up to 1917,
then went back until lS40 advanced till
1859, and have since been reoeding till the
present year, when many, including the
Mer de Glace and the Rosenlaur glacier,
have begun to advance. Observations were
made during the past GUNNER on the Gla.
Cier des Boissons, at Chsmounix, and the
important conclusion has been arrived at
that the rate OF motion of the same point
on a glacier changes greatly from day 20
day. 1t was shown that while during the
day the hourly rate or motion Of one point
Observed was only Gem, during the next
night it advanced at the rate of 8 sem. per
hour. The rate of other points examined
varied, but not so greatly. The change
occurring at the foot of the glacier when it
comes into the valley was also noticed.
The downward motion of this point is de-
termined by the fact that the parts above
advance more quickly than the ice at the
foot melts away. It was found that on one
SIDE of the glacier, where it rested against
a bowlder, there was no apparent change
in the outline of the ice or in the position
of the bowlder during the day, while at
the other side the end had moved in the
same time four or five feet.

ALCOHOL IN GRAIN.-Corn affords 40
pounds of spirits of the specific gravity of
.0427, containing As per cent. of absolute
alcohol for each 100 pounds of grain ;
wheat, 40 to 45 pounds Of spirits barley,
40; oats, SO; rye, Sc to ~; buckwheat,
40. Now 40 pounds OF such spirits equal
81 gallons of Government proof spirits. It
is computed that l 00e gallons of alcohol
are evaporated daily, in New York alone,
in the baking OF bread. A trial to save
the alcohol in one case of testing resulted
successfully, so far as securing the alcohol
but the bread was made tlstsless by tht
process.

A VASES STRATEGY. Seth Green, the
fish BREEDER tells the following story of a
wasp's strategy He says one morning,
when he was watching a spiders nest. a
wasp alighted within an inch or two of the
neat, on the opposite side OF The opening.
Creeping noiselesely around toward the en-
trance of the nest, the wasp stopped lit
tie short of it, aud for moment lay per-
fectiy quiet In the web. Then, reaching
ont one of his antenr a, the wasp wriggled
1t before the opening and Withdrew it.
This overture had the desired effect, for
the boss Of the nCs5, as large . spider as
one ordinarily sees, came ont to see what
new victim ne had caught. No sooner had
the spider emerged to that point at which
be was at the worst disadvantage than the
wasp, with quick movement, thrust his
sting into the body Of mis- foe, killing him
easily and almost instantly. The expert
ment was repeated on the part Of the wasp,
and, when there was no response from the
inside, he became satisfied, probably, that
he held the fort At sll events he pro-
ceeded to enter the nest and slaughter the
young spiders, who were afterwsrd Jagged
off one at time Ex.
