But how many farmers realize the
value of this work, or that the &C
tion of moisture and frost OH the
soil is one of the most bene6centin
nature9
All soils are formed primarily by
the breaking up, grinding down,
and diSintegration of rock. When
earth is mixed with organic mater
ial it constitutes soil. When thor
oughiy moist it occupies more
space than when dry. In the &C
ton OF the freezing, when moist,
every particle, however minute, is
still farther separated one from
another. Hence the perfect disn-
tegration seen in arabic soils that
have hron laid up rough to tho ac-.
ton of frost during winter-a more
perfect state than can be produced
by amy artificial means.
This is one of the economics OF
fall blowing. Another is, that
turning up the various larvH in the
soil to the action of air aud frost
destroys a large number. Still
anoLheriS, that tho trash turned I'M
der becomes partially docayed be-
fore cold weather sets in, if the
plowing has been done early.
Another important advantage.
gained is that the spring work is
thereby leSSened, and the seed may
he sown early enough to fairly ais
sure a crop. OF all the facts sta
ted. however, many farmers esti-
mate simply the gain of time on

SAMUEL ]. TILDEN.

The death OF Samuel j. T'ilden removes
from the activities of life man who had
filled large place in the history of the
country. He was an intense partisan, and
awakened political antagonists of the
most aggressive character. But no one
who has marked his career, though not
agreeing with him in political faith, will
deny his abilities. his wide influence and
prominence among the distinguished men
of America. 1t IS not our purpose to en-
ter upon any review of his life's labors, but
rather to pay the tribute Of political foe
to the unquestioned ability and well-won
prominence of such distinguished Amer
lean as Governor Tilden, and to express
the sincere regret felt at his taking off.
Governor Tilden had been a sufferer for
years, but courageous and patient one.
We believe that in all the long period of
his physical trials he never for moment
lost any of his mental yigor, or manifested
any decline of his strong intellectual pow
ers. The Democratic party never had a
better informed, more far-seeing or eau
tious leader 1t has reason to mourn as a
party over its loss. The American people,
regardless of political predictions, may
well pay tribute to his memory.
