Why Toads do Not Have Tails.

Some of next years Senior class in the city
High School must be putting in their vacation
practicing upon their graduating essay, If we
are to judge from the following disquisitiOn
which was picked up on the street the other day
and handed us by friend who thought as we
do. that it was too good to be wasted .-EDIToE)
1t is long since any question has so
agitated the minds of a certain class
of scientific people as has the one just
stated. We were reposing peacefully
in the belief that tOads had no tails
because the Lord didn't give them
any, when it occurred to some rashly
inquisitive mind to wonder why the
Lord chose to economize in tails in this
particular instance. Since the ques-
ton has been brought forward, it be-
hoOves us to settle it, if possible, seri-
ously and scientifically.
Why have not toads tails? Simply
because the functions of tail are not
necessary to the life and happiness of
toad. In the first place, he does not
need tail as weapon. The toad,
though he may be "ugly and venom
ous," is a peaceful amphibian. Sec
ondly, he does not need tail to brush
off the flies. The more flies on him,
the better. By flies he lives. His
tailless condition doubtless attracts
flies, who have from experience become
suspicious of tails. Thirdly, he does
not wish tail for an ornament. Mod
esty is one of the "tOadly" virtues.
Does he not hide his jewel in his head
instead of displaying it proudly on
his third finger? Fourthly, the pres
ence of a tail would be great incOn-
venience to him in assuming his favor
lite sitting posture. Indeed, it has
been suggested that the toad's ances-
tors had tails, but as they persisted
in their sedentary habits the tails
gradually wore away, and have dis
appeared entirely in the descendants.
We think that these points suffici-
emily show why, in the beautiful econ
omy of nature, tOads do not have tails.
If anybody can produce any good and
sufficient reason why tOads should
have tails, Professor Snow, of the
State University, can doubtless devise
means of remedying the defect.

Weekly weather.Crop Bulletin

of the Kansas Weather Service, issued
in cooperation with the Kansas State
Board of Agriculture, for the week
ending July %, 1892.
PRECIPITATION.
During the past week the rainfall
has been slightly in excess of the nor
NAL in the Republican, Blue and Kaw
river valleys. An excess occurred also
at Hutchinson. Over the rest of the
State there has been a decided defici-
sncy, especially in the western and
southwestern portions, over a large
area of which, extending from Raw
Inns to Harper, either no rain or less
than One-tenth inch occurred. The
rainfall has been very light also in
Marion, Woodson, Montgomery and
the southeastern counties generally.
TEMPERATURES AND SUNSHINE.
The temperature has been in excess
of the normal over the whole State,
reaching 99.5 at the central station,
log at Manhattan, 100 at Minneapolis,
ITO at Springvale, 101 at Abilene, IO2
at Grenola, 1887 at Independence, 103
at Oswego, 1908 at Horton, los at
Ulysses, 1OS at Colby and Offerle, and
los at Kiowa. Hot winds are reported
from Ford, Edwards and Kiowa. A
very few stations report the sunshine
as normal, all others report decided
excess.
RESULTS.
The weather the past week has been
especially favorable to the harvest,
which is now practically completed,
and stacking and threshing have be-
gun. The yield of both wheat and
oats at the machine appears to be all
that they promised at harvest, wheat
yielding from twenty to forty bushels
per acre, with plump berry that
causes it to outweigh machine meas
ure. Corn has grown rapidly and is
beginning to tassel in the northeastern
counties. In the area over which good
rains have fallen it is making wonder
full progress. AS the rainfall occurred
In the early part of the week, however,
q COED rain at present would prove
beneficial. AS the corn is now tassel-
ing, rains are needed over the greater
portion of the State and in some local
tiles it is beginning to suffer greatly,
especially in the area where the rain
fall has been deficient. 1t is feared
that the excessive heat has already
injured some tasseling fields, even
where the ground is in fair condition.
Besides suffering from drought it is
being slightly injured by hot winds
in Edwards, Ford and KiOwa counties
GrasshOppers are reported as doing
some damage in Kearney and Clark
counties. Flowing for fall wheat has
begun in some localities.
