THE SNOW BLANKE
Why 1t IL So Valuable In Protecting the
Fields From Cold.

Why 1t IL So Valuable In Protecting the
Fields From Cold.
The value of a mantle of snow in pro-
tecting vegetation in the fields in winter
is fully understood in farming districts,
and the cause of tho protection effect of
the snow is an interesting subject of
scientific inquiry.
In Germany, where, as the Youths
Companion says, no such subject is ever
allowed TO escape investigation. DIR. Abe $
has recently made some important obser-
vations on the thermal properties of snow.
lie has found that the looser the snow the
greater Its power to protect the ground
beneath. from the effects of external
changes of temperature.
Snow generally offers about four times
as much resistance to such changes as a
sheet of ice OF the same thickness offers.
When snow becomes closely packed,
therefore, il is less effective a a protection
to plant life than when it lies loosely upon
the surface.
Other experiments show that while a
blanket of snow protects the ground be.
meath from the chilling effects of the
winter atmosphere, yet the surface of the
snow itself, especially in clear weather, is
colder than the air. so that snow tends to
lower the temperature of the atmosphere.
and where areas of country or extensive
mountain slopes are covered by II impor-
tant climatic conditions may be produced
by the influence of the snow.

OF INTEREST TO TAXPAYERS
The Northern Pacific Objects to
Paying Taxes on the Lands
Which IL owns In silver
Bow County.

BUTTE, Feb. THE county commits
sioners have entered into an agreement
with the receivers of the Northern Pacific
railroad whereby the company's lands in
Silver Bow county upon which taxes are
delinquent will not be advertised for sale
this year. Cullen & Toole, attorneys for
the road, explained to the commissioners
that the road claimed, under a certain de-
cision of the United States supreme court,
touching the status of the land granted
the Northern Pacific, to aid it in the con-
struction of its road, that they are not
liable for taxes assessed against such
lands in Montana and that the company
was about to bring SUIT to test the legality
of the taxes so assessed. The attorneys
said they proposed to bring the test suit
in Jefferson county and prosecute it with
due diligence TO final judgment in the
court of last resort in case they lose in
the lower courts, the county having the
privilege of doing the same IL II loses, the
supreme court decision 10 be deemed the
final determination of the question.
If the declsion is against the railroad II
will within 60 days thereafter pay into the
county treasury the full amount of taxes
due, together with the 10 per cent. PEN
atty, but If the case goes against the
county the taxes shall be RENTED and no
longer stand as lien against the land.
The test case was suggested TO Attorney
General Haskell by United States Attor-
ney General Olney.
The county commissioners to-day made
n report regarding their inspection of the
B., A. q p. crossing at Rocker and ordered
the clerk to notify the railroad company
to widen the approaches SO that teams
could pass each other, extend the culverts
at least 80 feet and plank the track be-
tween the rails to the full width of the
wagon road. The railroad is also ordered
to build approaches at the wagon road at
the west side of the town and plank the
track, which is at present said to be i'm
passable.
The board put in considerable time to-
day in passing bills against the county.
Several bills for Witnesses fees from
the police court created considerable dis
cussion. They found that nine policemen
testified in three d fferent vagrancy cases
in one day and charged fees for each one,
and that one officer, besides testIfying in
three cases, besides as many fees, charged
the county mileage for serving a subpoe-
mas on himself, the mileage being for a
round trip in each case. The bills were
laid over for future consideration.

In the language of the wild and woolly
West, which they represent, the silver
senators are now camped upon the trail.
Hereafter, when the observing specta-
tor casts his eagle eye over the senate
chamber, he will always notice at least
one senator on guard. The persistent
PETER may be strangely absent; the
massive Allen may slip off down town to
get his buttermilk and sandwich; the vigil
liant Cockrell may be elsewhere, in fact
there may be SO vacant desks in the sem
ate chamber. The eighty-fourth will all
ways be filled, and its solitary occupant
will be a silver senator.
Afraid of some coup d'etat, the silver
men have determined to hereafter take
watches, so to speak, while the senate is
in session. No 'gold-bug'' is to be aole to
slip through the senate a bond issue
