Tho indiana ssnatorship.

INpIANApoIIs, Jan. 14.--The contest
for the empty honor of the Republican
nomination for United States Senator
from Indiana is becoming rather spriit-
ed, though the Democrats, who will do
the electing, are not troubled over the
question. Among the prominent
Republicans who are now being urged
for the nomination are Charles w.
Fairbanks, Govern Hovey, ex-Attorney
ard W. Thompson, and Judge William
A. Woods. The contest, however, is
mainly between the friends of Fair
banks and Hoyey.

Is There Snow on the Moons

Remarkable discoveries have BEEN
made at the Lick Observatory, Califor-
MA. Professor Holden, the director,
has secured through the big telescope
better photographs of the moon than
have been taken anywhere else, and the
work of photographing goes on every
hour when the satellite is visible. BY
studying these photographs with mag
nlfying glass and comparing them any
changes taking place on the surface of
the moon may be discovered.
The astronomers on Mount Hamilton
have discovered some things that nobody
else ever saw, but they have not deter
mined whether these are new features 07
things that are too small to have been
seen through less powerful telescope.
For example upon the top of one of the
mountains of the moon the photograph
shows a luminous white spot which looks
like snow. If that is snow, and if 1t
was not there before, the presence of an
atmosphere is indicated. 1t has been
believed that the moon has no atmos-
phere, and therefore is uninhabitable;
but if it should be demonstrated that
snow falls upon the surface of the sateI-
lite the accepted theory would be upset,
and astronomers would begin to study
the moon with new and greater interest
Objects upon the moon are detected
by their shadows, and a projection or
eminence fifty feet high casts shadow
large enough to be seen through the
Lick telescope. If Professor Holden,
studying his series of photographs,
should discover some day new shadow
where none had been cast before when
the moon was in the same position and
under the same light, he would know
that something had been erected upon
the surface, either part of the crust up
heaved by some internal movement, or a
building put up by living creatures. The
moon appears to be dead, desolate
waste of played-out volcanoes and cooled
off lava beds, without atmosphere, and,
like Arizona, rather short of water and
good society.-Philadelphia Telegraph.

Valuable Mineral Discovery.

An important deposit of that rare metal
known as vanadium has been found in
the Province of Mendoza, Argentine
Republic. This metal is one of the 1arest
and most valuable known and is used for
setting dyes in silks, ribbons, hosiery
and other fine goods. The principal
source of supply until recently has been
small deposit in the Ural Mountains,
and it has been held as high as $500
per ounce. This newly-discovered de-
post in Mendoza will therefore be re-
cognized as of great importance.-Chi-

HARVESTING CLOVER SEED.

A heavy crop of clover seed can be cut
with an ordinary moving machine and
raked up with a steel rake. The wind
rows will need to be repeatedly turned
and sometimes, if the crop is green,
shaken out. When dry run the steel
rake along the windrows and put the
clover into carefullY-made, good-sized
cocks that willshed rain. Let the clover
sweat in the cocks, if it will, and when
dry draw into the barn. Before we had
such good threshing machines and clover
hullers it was deemed desirable to ex-
pose the crop as much as possible to the
weather, letting it get wet and dry sew
eral times until it was nearly half-rotted.
After such exposure, when dry and kept
until cold weather, it threshed easier.
This is not now necessary.
A light crop of clover seed, one that is
short AND thin on the ground, must be
cut with platform reaper. If cut with
a moving machine the steel rake will
leave much of it on the ground, and It
will hardly pay to rake it up with wooden
hand -rakes. There are several reaping
machines that do the work to perfection.
u AuONdOlC COUSCl OGbL Ct1u ING SCG SO %44ob
the knives will shave the ground. The
clover falls on the platform and can be
carried, if the crop is light, quite long
distance and then discharged into fair
sized cock. If the clover is dead-ripe
then cocks or bundles may not need
turning, but can be pitched on the
wagon with a barley fork and moved
away in the barn, or threshed at once.
If it is difficult to get the crop dry put it
on scaffold, where it will dry out be-
fore it is necessary to thresh it.
In regard to threshing and cleaning
clover seed, if one has had no experience,
probably a good plan to get the desired
information will be to write to the man
ufacturers of the threshing machine he
uses. In sections where much clover
seed is grown the threshers go from
farm to farm during the winter months
and thresh and clean the seed for so
much per bushel. It is highly desirable
on account of insect depredators that the
area in which clover seed is grown
should be extended. A good average
crop is five bushels per acre, and as or
binary medium red clover is a second
crop-the first crop being cut for hay in
May or June-the money for the clover
seed is obtained at little trouble or ex-
pense. ''But will it not exhaust the
land2" In proportion to the money
value. clover seed impoverlshes the land
less than almost any other crop we grow.
We retain all the leaves, stems, chaff
and roots on the farm and sell only the
seed. a bushel of clover seed contains
no more fertiHzing constituents or plant
food than bushel of peas. It is good
policy to grow and SOW more clover
seed. If one fears it impoverishes the
soil he should take part of the money
and buy cottcn-seed cake or fertilizers.
The exchange can be made at a big
profit. Agriculturist.

A Fox Story.

An island of the Irish coast was in
habited by large numbers of rabbits,
and could be reached at low tide by
wading, the water there being only few
inches deep One morning some fisher
men went in their boat quite early, it be-
ing high tide, and on landing saw dead
fox lying on the beach. The animal
seemed to have been drowned. One Of
the men, remarklng that his skin was
worth something, pitched him into the
boat. Procuring their bait they returned
to the main land, and the man who had
possessed himself of the fox seized him
by the tail and flung him on shore.
AS soon as the animal struck the Aeach
he picked himself up with consid> able
agility for dead fox, and shot off like
a flash up among the cliffs. The men
concluded that he had crossed over to
the island during the night when the
tide was low, in search of rabbits, and
finding in the morning that he was cut
off from the mainland, counterfeited
death, with the expectation of thereby
procuring passage to the shore in a
boat, an expectation which was fully
realized. -NGtionaL Labor Trib uae.

The Telephone Forecasts Weather.

The telephone is about to have a new
application, namely, that of fortelling
storms. A new discovery has been made
as to one of the properties of this means
of transmitting sound. BY placing two
iron bars at seven or eight meters dis
lance from each other, and then putting
them in communication On the side by
a copper wire covered with rubber, and
on the other side with a telephone, o
storm can, it is said, be predicted at least
twelve hours ahead through dead sound
heard in the receiver. According as the
storm advances the sound resembles the
beating of hailstones against the win
dows. Every flash of lightning, and, of
course, every clap of thunder that ac-
companies the storm produces shock
similar to that of stone being cast be-
tween the diaphragm and the instru-
mcnt.-NeW York Journal.
