The autumn haze is on the hills,
And rain is daily shyer.
A summer sun sucks up the rills;
The dryness gets much drier.
But though it's dry we can't forget,
In lovely Minnesota,
There's one place where it's drier yet
That's prohibish Dakota.

Major Walsh, of the signal service
bureau at st. Paul, gives an exhaus-
tive explanation of the causes of the
drouth and of the reasons which lead
him to believe that it will continue
some time longer. "Until the end of
this month";" he says, s"'raln, if it
comes at ell, will come from the
south. A storm center, say, forms in
the Gulf region. The tendency of the
air currents ct this season will cause
it to describe hyperbole, passing
northwesterly until Il point is reached
somewhere to the west Of us and al
most in the same latitude, it will here
succumb to the steady movement of
the air from west to east across the
contingent and pass off towards the
st. Lawrence valley and thence to
the ocean. After this month the di-
rection will he somewhat similar,
only the storm center will originate
in the north, sweep west to the Rock
les and then double upon its track
aud take q course to the Atlantic.
The moisture which these winds will
bring will be what has been gathered
over the Pacific ocean and drIfted
eastward. I am bound to confess
that the outlook for rain at present is
not at all reassuring. This has been
a season of excessive drouth, but
nature is sure to compensate aud next
year we may be as wet as this has
been dry"

President Sprague, of the Grand
Forks University is an earnest advo-
cate of free text books for children
who attend our public schools. He
claims that the system works well in
Massachusetts,, and that there are a
good many children who now stay
away from school who would other
wise go, if their parents were not
compelled to buy their text books.
He claims in pamphlet which he
has just issued, that the books,
materials and stationery, like the
apparatus, furniture, grounds and
buildings, should all be furnished
gratis. ut ill becomes an American
town or CITY," says Mr.. Sprague, "it

There was time when it was dryer
than it is at the present time, as will
be seen by the following from the
Pioneer Press: An old settler said
yesterday: II do not think the pres
ent drouth anything to compare with
the memorable one of 1868 and 1854
Then no rain fell at all from the early
spring Of 1868 to the fall of 1854. The
crops OF 1863 and 1854 had no rain
whatever, and got only the moisture
from the SHOWS of the proceeding
winters. The dust was awful. The
lakes and streams dried up, some per-
manently. The Mississippi river was
forded in several places, thing never
known before Cattle had to live
on browse. There was no grass.
Cows learned to walk on their hind
legs, so as to reach the trees"

The strongest man we have any &C
count of-unless we except Samson,
who gained such widespread fame by
the dexterious manner in which he used
the jawbone of an ass-is now exhibit
ing his strength in London, and will
soon visit this country. Among other
things that he does, is to break an iron
chain that will bear pressure of 5000
pounds; with his two hands he pulls to
bits short chain of 1850 pounds pres
sure; bends a four-foot iron gas. pipe
round his neck and cheerfully straight
ems it again by repeated blows on his
eft arm.
The Pail Mall Gazette says: When
Samson's fist is clinched and he is ready
to strike the measurement of his upper
arm round biceps and triceps is 1913
inches, which, we may casually remark,
is considered tolerable waist for a
young lady. Fourteen men came upon
the stage by invitation to pull against
him, but Samson, not deeming them
enough, or sizing up the athletic capa-
bllities with a professional eye, ex
men he divided into nine side, the two
sides nearly the width of mans
stretch apart, and each side being pro-
vided with and grasping strong and
lengthy iron rod. Before placing him
self between them, Samson stimulated
their ardor by, promising 800 to them if
he failed to move them, and apparently
there was a grateful determination on
the mems faces to win the pourboirc.
Then there was a short, sharp struggle,
the men held their ground for brief
space, were pulled together and the next
moment thrust apart, and finally, sway
ing as they went, were carried away by
the intensity of one straining man in
their midst. Samson is man of 81, of
French origin, native of Alsace-Lor-
raine. He goes from England to Ameri-
ca. At 10 years of age he entered the
circus as an athlete and pulled against
horses and elephants; at is he COM
menced to wrestle, and from that time
to the present he has left untried no
means whereby he can maintain, train
and develop his extraordinary strength.

The causes of the change in the
color of leaves in the fall may not be
generally known. so the following ex-
PLANTATION. by a botanist may not be
amiss at this time: The green matter
in the tissue of leaf is composed of
two colors, blue and red. When the
sap ceases to flow In the autumn and
the natural growth of the tree ceases
oxidation of the tissue takes place.
Under certain conditions the green of
the leaf changes to red; under differ
ent conditions it takes OH a yellow or
a brown tint. This difference in color
is due to the difference in combina-
ton of the original constituents Of
the green tissue and to the varying
conditions of climate exposure and
soil A dry, cold climate produces
more brilliant foliage than one that is
damp and warm.

tarter at all, being made up of mixtures
of tartaric acid, acid calcium phosphate,

Of 55 samples sold as cidar vinegar, II
were pure, 10 were spurious cidar vine
gars made from the exhausted pomace
from which the cidar had been ex-
pressed, REFRESHING vinegars as they are
sometimes termed, and 81 were colored
low-wine vinegars, containing in some
instances small proportion of apple
solids Or of cidar vinegar.
Of the samples of pure cidar vinegar
9 were manufactured by F. c. Johnson,
of Dishwaukee, ILL.,, and by the M. A.
Gedney Picking Co., of Minneapolis.
of the spurious cidar vinegars made
from repressed pumace, 2 were from the
Prussing Vinegar Co., and 8 from
Schuyler & Cook, of Chicago. Of the
colored low-wine vinegars consider
able number were branded Red Cross
and Alden, the origin of the remainder
being unknoAn. Three samples sold as
malt vinegar were colored low-wine
vinegars, manufactured by NJ. A. Ged-
ney, of Minneapolis, 10 samples were
below the legal limit of acidity.
Sixty eight samples of lard were ex-
amined and 81 proved to be adulterated
with cotton seed oil.
Ten samples of olive oil were ex-
amined, and found to consist largely or
entirely of cotton seed oil, the remaining
4 being pure.
Less adulteration was found in wines
and liquors than in any other articles
Thirteen samples of different kinds of
liquors We're examined, and they proved,
says the chemist, Ito be of such char
acter as is usually found under their re-
spective brands. The distilled liquors
have not in all respects conformed to the
standard of purity required by the q. s.
Pharmacopoia, but in the samples ex-
amined this has been due rather to
lack of age and proper maturing than to
the presence of authorizations. But
this is no argument in favor of dispens-
ing with baking powder, cream of tartar,
butter, cheese, lard, vinegar, etc., and
substituting whisky IN their place; but
we should be mighty careful about using
those articles which are known to be
adulterated with poisonous substances.
