French Naval Tactics.

And now, for the first time in his life,
he had the opportunity of studying the
theory and technic of his profession on
large scale. Admiral La Motte-Pic-
quet, Admiral Count d'Orvilliers, and
especially the chief of staff, the Cheva-
lier du Pavilion, were accomplished
tacticiaus. True, II is. their tactics had
rarely been able to withstand more than
few broadsides from the unscientific
English; but Paul Jones not only grasp
ed the theory fully that naval warfare
is great and farre,. ching science, but
he put ii in practice-which the French
had singularly overlooked. Then was

Odd Things About the Nile.

The Nile is unique among great riv-
ers in that it is the largest towards
its source. But this Is due to the fact
that 1t traverses desert region be.
meath semi-tropical sun and that one
third of it's volume below the first cat
aract is diverted from its channel for
purposes of irrigation and domestic
use.
The Importance Of the Nile to the
Egyptian cannot be overestimated. Let
the floods fail but for a single season,
and starvation stares the poor inhabit-
ants in the face, unless, perchance,
some thoughtful and provident Joseph
has laid by supply in the teeming
years. Little wonder 1t is that the
early Egyptian, left to his own slen-
der resources, came to regard the river
with mingled fear and reverence,
brought offerings to propitiate 1t and
maue sacrifices in its name.

Weather Crop Bulletin.

For the week ending Monday, July
Is, by S. G. Emery, Director Weather
Bureau, Milwaukee, Wis. Bulletin No.
Is.
The first part of the week was very
cool with light frosts in the western
portion on the Sth and 9th. The last
half of the week was hot and dry up to
Sunday, when good showers occurred
in many sections, which were very ben
efcial to pastures and growing crops.
The heaviest rainfalls occurred over the
northern and southern counties, while
those which passed over the central
portion were generally light. The soil
is still extremely dry and much rain will
be required to revive The willing vegita
ton. Frost did no serious damage, ex-
cept to slightly retard the growth of
corn and potatoes in the deep valleys.
Some damage from hail is reported in
Jefferson county.
Potatoes are doing we'll considering
the dry weather. Some are being dug
for home use, and it is found there are
large number IN the hills, though
small in size. All that is needed to
bring ont an unusually heavy crop Of
potatoes is a good soaking rain.
Rye is mostly harvested and some in
stack. The barley harvest is we'll along
towards completion and that crop is in
every way satisfactory, both i'll yield
and quality. Oats are ripening very
rapidly and in the southern counties d
few fields have been cut. The oat crop
is with very few exceptions, the heav-
lest in several years, and some cores
pondents say it was never better. In
those localities where the drouth began
early, the yield of small grains will be
light; but over greater portion of the
state they are fully mp to an average
season.
Cranberry vines are doing well, but
the berries are going to be scarce.
Several reports are received of hay
marshes being on fire, and considerable
grass has been destroyed.
