to dry the air is to bring 1t in direct
contact with the ice. A current is
formed, either mechanically or natur-
ally, the air Is brought in contact with
the ice and it's moisture is condensed
upon the ice, passing off with the drip.
Two things are required for good
and economical work: One Is that
there be no cold metallic surfaces, for
such surfaces will also condense mois-
ture although then it remains in drops
and is partially reabsorbed by the air.
The other point is to prevent the ad-
mission of outside air. If properly
constructed and no outside air admit,
ted, the air moves in a current and is
kept dry, as well as cold, by constant
contact with the ice. To prevent the
admission of outside air, the drip pipe
which carries out the water from the
melted ice must have trap in it
that is, a depression which will always
be filed with water, SO as to keep air
from entering. The theory of the cir
culation is as follows: Cold air is
heavier than warm and will descend.
AS the air in contact with the ice de-
scends, other air takes its place, the
warmer rising because tits lighter. ALI
the descending air is cooled and dried
by the ice and it pursues it's course cool
and dry. OF course the portion that is
in direct contact with the ice is coldest
and therefore heaviest Its sconstant-
ly falling thus keeping up the circula-
tion. 1t is evident that the shelves
should be few and that these must
have openings to permit the air to as
cend. The arrows show clearly the
natural circulation of the air, and it
must not be interfercd with by an air
tight partition or shelf. AS to the size,
that depends upon circumstances, the
same as the size of cornfield or a
barn. The essentials are shown by the
cut and foregoing description. The
drip pipe of course starts just below
the ice, and conveys the water to the
outer air. The ice rests on Stats SO the
air can pass down through it to the
bottom and the drip shelf must not
close the channel through which the
air descends 1t is considered that
broken ice is more effective than the
same quantity in one large chunk, a
number of pieces giving the greater
amount OF surface. Orange Judd

cuRIoslTIEs OF THE AURORA

Early Superstitions and Conjectures Re-
garding the Phenomenon.
The ancients viewed the aurora borea
lis with superstitious awe, looking upor
it as an omen of direful disaster. 1t i,
not unusual for descriptions of old-time
battles, to mention the fact that the
''curious red northern lights gave u.
warning that something awful wa.
about to happen" In the annals OF Clan
Mac-Noise is to be found an account of &
purple aurora. which lighted up the
northern skies in the year 6Ss A. d.. OF
the night preceding the dreadful battle
fought by the Irish tribes of Leinstei
and Munster and it is not necessary v a
mention the fact that the people took
it as an omen of the great slaughter
which soon followed. In the year 1855
the people of America witnessed some
Of the grandest displays of the auroral
lights that has ever been known in the
history of the world. During the month
of September, that year, particularly
upon the nights of the I'd. Sd and 10Th.
brilliant auroras were reported from
nearly every point on the American
continent. Superstitious people like
those of Ireland hundreds of years age
believe until this day that the peculiar
appearance of the sky upon the night.
mentioned was Il presage of the great
conflict which was soon to be waged
between the north and south. The
cause of the aurora has long been a
matter of speculation. NJ. de la Rive. a
Genoese scientist. who has long and
faithfully labored for the enlighten.
ment of humanity upon this subject,
made an interesting experiment in Fin.
land in the year 1882. ami one which
goes long way towards proving that
''fitful aurora" is a phenomenon of cleo.
tricxl character The experiment is
best described in the language of the
experimenter himself: "We surrounded
the peak of mountain with copper
wire, pointed at intervals with tin nibs.
We next heavily charged the wire with
electricity, and afterward nearly every
night during our stay had the pleasure
of seeing yellowish-white light dance
from nib To nib, in which the spectre.

yellow rays so characteristic OF the au.

DAIRY PHILOSOPHY.

TAKE good care of the young cows,
that they maycontinue profitable when
they are old.
LEAD COW rather than drive her.
Gentleness should be the watchword
to the dairy stable.
THE whey following good cheese
makers work is poor feed for pigs, as
it contains but little casein, or butter
fat.
The dairyman with good we'll and
a windmill can feel about as independ-
on his farm.
WHEN you strip a cows teats to the
last drop in milking, do it not SO much
for the immediate gain as to keep the
adder of prolific habit in the future.
The merciful dairyman when he
draws calves to market puts them in a
comforta BILE crate, instead of tying
their legs and doubling them under the
wagon seat.
10 MAKE the COW truly profitable,
you must maintain her milk yield
along natural lines of feeding. In
dulgence in freaks of food stimulation
does cows more harm than good.
WHILE dairy animals need shade in
summer as much as shelter in winter,
it should not be SO extensive in the
pasture as to interfere with the nat
ural development of nutritious grass.
THE wise dairyman who does not
turn his cows out to pasture in the
spring till it is of sufficient growth to
support them, gets quality in the feed,
which is of as much Importance as
quantity.
TIE COW that must Craze Industrious
ly half the summer to recover physical
ly what she has lost by indifferent
keeping through the winter. is not apt
to earn q dollar in real profit for her
owner.-George X. Newell, in Ameri-
can Agriculturist.

why Paris and Washington Arc both Con
structcd on the Same Plan.

A friend of mine, recently deceased,
told me, If my memory serves me cor.
rectly, that he had the following facts
from Baron Haussman himself: Ordered
by Napoleon Ill. to submit plans foi
the renovation of Paris. the baron was
for some time at loss to meet the two
fold requirements, for the contemplated
improvements of the new streets had
to be at once beautiful, and so laid out
as to be readily commanded by artil,
lery.
Suddenly he bethought him OF
modern Washington. He secured q
plan of that city, and this seemed on
examination so exactly to meet the
necessities of the case that he finally
submitted it to the emperor. The re-
suit was that the plan in the main was
accepted, and modern Paris was built
on the lines of modern Washington.
Thus is explained certain similarity
which strikes every one who is familiar
with the two capitals, although one
might naturally suppose the Ameri.
can city, being the younger, to be the
daughter, instead of the mother. But
Gen. Washington more than half cen
tury earlier had ordered L'Enfant tc
design him plan for his seat of gov.
ernment in much the same manner as
Napoleon III. had commanded Baron
Haussman. Now, L'Enfant was not
only Frenchman, but a resident OF
Versailles, and he undoubtedly derived
his inspiration from his earlier sur.
roundings; consequently Washington
saw an enlargement of the Royal park,
with its alleys extended into avenue:
and it's numerous flower beds and par
terres enlarged into circles and quad.
rants. Thus by a trans-oceanic leaI
Baron Haussman took from the new
world what he could have secured a.
his own gate.
So much for merely curious artistic
coincidence. But in light of recent de
4 velopments in our capital, singula,
inquiry suggests itself - namely
whether Gen. Washington, in laying
out the city, did not have in mind the
same two-fold object that Napoleon I'LL
had when laying out Paais. To b:
sure, the present industrial army move
ment now bids fair to end in ridicule
But at some later date more desper
ate one may require to be controlled by
artillery. and then the broad avenue.
and straight streets of the capital may
be appreciated for other than mere
aesthetic considerations. and, on tn,
contrary. serve as an additional proc
of far-sightedness on the part of th'
father of his country.-H. |. Browne, il
