State silver Convention.

The following communication
from the Humboldt Silver League
to the Lyon county silver-leaguers
is self-explanatory:
WINNEMUcCA, June 1, 1892.
Executive Committee Lyon coun-
ty Silver League-Gentlemen: At
a meeting of our Executive Com
mittee it was resolved that we re-
quest the Executive Committee of
each county to appoint its Presi-
dent member of State Execu-
tive Committee for the purpose of
fixing a time and place for holding
State Convention and to appor-
ton delegates, Such a step will
effect a State organization until
the Convention meets. We suggest
that the Convention meet this
month, so as to select delegates to
the Helena Convention.
Yours truly,
c. A. LAGRAvE,
Secretary.
Our Committee should act with
out delay in this matter as there is
none too much time to spare. We
also again suggest that Reno be the
place selected for holding the State
Convention.

Minutes and Seconds.

Did you ever catch yourself wonder
ing why sixty seconds make minute,
and sixty minutes an hour? in Baby
lon there existed, besides the decimal
system of notation, another system, the
scSagcsimal, which counted by sixties.
Why sixty should have been chosen is
clear. There is no number which has
az many diyisors as it has. The BABY
lcniars divided the suns daily passage
into twcntT-four parsangs, or no stadia,
each parsang or hour being divided in.o
60 minutes. The whole course of the
sun during the cQuinoctial hours was
fl;cd at twcntyfour parsangs, 710
stadia, or about 800 degrees This sys-
tom was handed down to the Creeks
and IIipparchus, the Greek philosopher,
who lived about $50 Il. c., introduced
the Babylonian hour into Europe.

Arrangements Being Made for an EIab-
crate Display.
The assistant secretary of agriculture,
Mr.. Willis, who is in charge of the ex-
hibit of that department at the Worlds
Columbian exposition, is now taking
measures for thoroughly classified
representation there of the wool in
dustry of the United States. He has
appointed q committee to look after this
matter, consisting of Edward A. Greene,
of Philadelphia, and Hon. John r.
Rich, of Elba, Mich. It is intended to
include in the exhibit one hundred
samples of foreign wools taken from
the collection now being made for the
customs service by the same committee.
CT domestic woods about two thousand
samples will be shown of all breeds and
crosses raised in tic country. The
space available for this exhibit will not
permit of showing many whole fieeces,
which will therefore be restricted to a
few taken from pedigree sheep. Gen.
orally speaking, the samples will be put
up in glass bottles holding about a
pound, and will be SO arranged in the
bottles as to show on the one side the
staple and on the other the skin side of
the clip. In this way both the farmer
and the wool buyer will sec the wool as
they are in the habit of seeing it. An
effort Viii be made to relieve the
monotorY which would arise from so
many similar :ianplcs, by some special
decorative features, zach cs pictures of
sheep, etc. Mr.. Willis desires to secure
a fine Nicrino ram to be stuffed and
mounted on q pedestal in the center of
the exhibit. lie would like tenders of
sach Il ram, whose pedigree can be
traced to one or more noted sirc3, and
t'iat is now growing his third fleece.
I he animal selected will be exhibited
with the name and address of the
breeder attached. as in the case of all
samples Of wool where these are known.
Although the space available for the e-:-
Eibit is very small, it is hoped that by
using great care in the selection OF the
samples it may prove of value to the
wool growers of the country.
