thick. framed into the rear4end, and
one fifteen inches wide at the, front.
The bottom is of inch boards fitted and
nailed snugly to the frame. The for
ward ends of the side-rails are notched
on the lower side Hike those of the
outer frames, to admit the bolster
piece, and sloy1n inch wide and four
long is cut through the front cross
piece and bottom beards@fer@ the staple.z
Amy desired form of seat is attached to
the forward end-board. This frame is
hung to the outer one by a bar of FIVE
eighths-inch round iron, three and a.
half feet from the hind end. The
frame is held in place by pin through
the staple in front, which is removed
for dumping. The whole is made
narrower in front than behind, for the
reason that such form admits of more
freedom in turning the forward wheels.
For use, the hind wheels are removed
from any ordinary farm-wagon and put
on the axle; the kingbolt is drawn, and
the forward axle, with wheels, tongue
and all the forward running gear, is
placed under the dumping-box and
made fast by the king-bolt.
Such wagon is extremely useful for
hauling manure, sand, potatoes or any
articles that may be unloaded by dump
ing. American Agriculturist.

SOLAR DISTURBANCES.

How the Sun, Affects the weather. Other
Interesting Facts.
The most pronounced effects of solar
disturbance are felt as it appears by the
suns rotation on its axis and as the dis
turbance crosses the suns meridian.
The six and half days between appear
ance by rotation and meridian passage
are marked by storms, auroras, heat or
earthquake. After meridian passage
the storm influence of solar disturb
ance appears to cease. In this case Of
the word storm all the other phenomena
are included All are kindred. When
solar disturbances follow each other in
rapid succession the storm period is pro-
longed The effects of solar disturb
ances which break out onathe suns hem
isphere turned toward us produce sud
den and powerful effects in our atmos-
-phere.4-Storms known as cloud bursts
have been most frequently noted in con-
nection with these, sudden outhnrsts on
the suns face. AS rule the marks of
solar disturbance can not be seen until
the storms on the earth cease. The spots
form after the storm-producing erup-
tions.
Tornadoes are more numerous during
periods of violent solar agitation. The
number and violence of tornadoes are
directly proportional to the number and
violence of solar disturbances. Observa-
tions during the past winter and spring
show that solar disturbances are in some
eases marked by spots until month Or
two after the eruptions begin. Fifty
two days after the great storm Of Janu-
airy and 10, 1883, spots appeared by the
sun rotation. Spots also appeared by
rotation fifty-two days after the. great
Samoan hurricane of March Is and 10,
1885, which wrecked several men-of-war
in the harbor of Apia. This disturb
ance on the sun was followed upon REL
appearance on May 30 and 80 by the
floods which wrecked Johnstown, Pa.
and drowned Williamsport, Pa
When the solar disturbances become
obscure, their storm action can be-
traced by counting the twenty-six-day
period. The solar disturbances which
caused severe and widespread storms
during the. first eight months of 1889 are
now obscure, spots being rarely seen
But there is evidence of activity at the
seat Of the disturbances WheHager VIC

Cleaning the Fields,

With the cultivated crops in the
spring it is quite an item to have them
as clean as possible. This can be done
to the best advantage by blowing rea-
sonably early in the fall. The trash
turned under will add to the fertility.
There is, of course, but small value in
dry stalks, weeds and grass as ferti1-
izer, yet it will be better to pillow them
under than to burn them when the plow
ing can be done in good season, so as to
give them time to rot. With cultivated
crops especially weeds, grass and stalks
will interfere considerably with the
preparation Of the soil and the cultiva-
ton of the crops, and when they can
not be plowed in time to rot, the better
plan is to rake up and burn. A sharp,
frosty morning when the ground is clear
of snow. but frozen sufficiently hard to
bear up team, is a good time to break
down the corn stalks.
A good spring sulky rake is
good implement to use in gathering
them up into piles convenient to burn.
With small grain this is not SO neces-
sary, but with corn, potatoes, cane or
other cultivated crops it will be much
the more economical to do thorough
work. 1t is very important to get the
soil in good filth before planting the
crops. 1t wi II lessen largely the work
Of giving clear cultivation, and it will
always pay to take time to prepare the
soil in good filth, By clearing up the
fields in advance it will lessen the work

INSTEAD of exposing theacorn-fodder
in the fields it should be stored under
cover as soon as dry enough, and ii
would be an advantage to have it in the
barn before it gets wet, which, however,
is not always possible, but the less ex.
posture to rain the better. In the South
the stalks are stripped of the blades,
which, are cured in bundles and put in
the barn immediately, which renders
the fodder very acceptable to stock OF
all kinds, II largely supplying the place
of hay.
