TO an interest that does not stop until it
leads him TO an intelligent opinion"
The Farmer and Breeder announces that
1t proposes to devote a large part of its
space in every issue to discussion OF this
question. ave want" it says, every
reader to follow us closely, because if you
do not understand it now, the more rea-
son there is why you should. When this
great question comes up-as it is bound
to do-at the great national contest three
years hence, every voter in the United
States should comprehend it. 1t is duty
each one owes to his state and country, as
well as to himself and his family. 1t is
one of the last great national questions
that are to be answered by the people in
the nineteenth century. Is it high or low
tariff, or absolute free trader"
The farmers and stock men of the North
west need the benefit of such fair and in
telligent discussion of the tariff question
as the Former and Breeder promises them.
If they ever get their eyes open to the in
justice and iniquity of the spoils system,
they will make short shift of it.

About his Brother.

Several years ago my brother, who
lives with me, had very strange sore
to break out on his leg-about half
way between his body and his knee
which afterwards developed into u
rose cancer. 1t resulted from a bruise
made by the rubbing of the stirrup-
leather while riding.
The cancer continued to grow until
it was about five inches long, and
three wide. The flesh slOughed of,
black, rotten and foul, and it was
almost impossible to procure a servant
that would wait upon him, the air in
the room where he lay being so foul,
that it would sicken anyone who en-
tered. Every physician of any promi-
nence in the State was consulted, and
treated my brother without success.
One doctor finally advised him to try
Swift's Specific, Is. S. 81; he did so,
and used nothing else. He commenced
to improve Immediately. and after tax
ing several bottles was completely
cured, and since 1884 not a symptom
of the disease has manifested itself.

Periodicals.

John Habberton, the author of
"Helen's Babies, " "Brueton's Bayou"
etc, contributes the complete novel
for the December number of Lippip-
cOtt's Magazine. 1t is a remarkable
and strikingly original story, dealing
with the life of an ex-cOnvict, who
while serving his term in prison be-
comes converted to Christianity The
hero does not embrace any particular
form of belief, and is a man of limited
intelligence, but he earnestly tries to
live up to the light that is in him, and
so is brought into sharp contrast with
many about him who are followers of
the letter rather than of the spirit of
Christianity. The moral change
wrought in the life of the ex-convict.
his influence upon others, his family
relations, his struggles are describ ed
with graphic pen. The scene of the
story is laid in village, and a Judge,
minister. a hypOcritical deacon, an
agnostic young lawyer, and other viii
lage characters are capitally portrayed.
Additional interest is lent to the story
because it is founded on fact its lea d.
ing events were known to Henry
I.
HahbertOn to weave them into a tale.
'All He Knew" will be read by both
believers and non-believers with the
keenest interest.

Geodetic Surveys.

The primary object of geodetic survey
is the determination of the size and shape
of the earth, or, as is preferable to say in
this connection, the geoid. Secondarily
and incidentally it accomplishes much be-
Sides 1t determines with highest pre-
cision the co-ordinates, latitude, longitude
and altitude of prominent landmarks
over the surface of country. But this is
not essential to its geodetic character. The
earliest geodetic surveys by. the French
Government in France, Lapland and Peru
measured bases, executed triangnlation
and made astronomical observations, solely
to determine the size and shape of the
earth.
If a scheme of triangulation were
planned solely with reference to the meas
urement Of an arc of a parallel, or an are
of meridian, then the longest lines and
the fewest stations and triangles consistent
with the required accuracy would be
chosen If the object were the secondary
one, of locating points upon which to base
other surveys, then the number, location
Sacramento daily record-union. [volume] (Sacramento [Calif.]) 1875-1891, 1889-01-01

and accuracy of location would be made
dependent upon this secondary condition.
The distinction here suggested is one
not anywhere carried into effect bt by
geodetic survey is usually understood a
survey in which long lines are measured
with high precision, and are accompanied
by astronomical and gravity determine
tions. Measures of gravity, in SO far as
they contribute to knowledge of the
form of the earth, naturally belong with
geodetic surveys. In so far as they relate
to density and distribution of matter
within the earth, they form part of a geo.
logical survey. The methods and instru-
ments used, however, in the gravity, or
gravimatic survey, closely ally it to the
geodetic survey, of which it properly
forms part. Thus geodet:c survey will
serve the double purpose of precisely de-
termining the latitude, longitude and alti-
tude of points for practical use, and of con-
tributing to hegeneral stock of knowledge
respecting the form, size, density and dis
tribution of matter of the earth And the
conduct of the survey will vary according
to the prominence attached by the patrons
of the survey to the one or the other Of
these purposes. A very rigid adherence
to the "practical" aspect of he case will
lead to the rejection of all plans for work
not promising practical y results, while
more liberal policy will go further and in
addition to the immediate practical re-
suits, will aim to deduce general prinei-
pies and increase the sum of human
neutrality-suspicious..

Dogs in War.

Dogs in some instances carry the concise
dispatch is small metal case fastened to
the collar, and this certainly seems to have
the advantage of security, as attracting the
least possible amount of attention; where
as, the leather letter-case hanging from the
collar, or the two leather pockets attached
TO strap passing under the body and kept
in position by a second strap across the
chest, though, of course, available for
bulkier documents, is undoubtedly more
conspicuous, and more liable to render the
dog an object of suspicion and mark for
bullet. By "a similar arrangement of straps
the war dog is enabled to carry a small
case of ammunition and is thus made use
full on the outward march, ere he is dis
patched on his solitary journey as military
postman. Some sanguine trainers even
hope that dogs may be trained TO return to
the munition wagons during the heat of
battle to bring fresh supplies to the fight
ers, regardless of all danger from shells
and bullets. 1t would seem more natural
to enlist their services as water carriers to
bring drink to the wounded and dying
