splendid orator. He is personally one
of the most honest and honorable men
| have ever known. No suspicion of
jobbery ever was attached to him dur
ing his long public career. His tariff
bill was a model from democratic
standpoint; and, if he had not been
confederate soldier, it would have
brought him into prominence as fac
tor in democratic presidential nominat-
ing conventions. 1t was a free trade
measure, based upon the declarations
of democratic platforms. AS chair
man of the committee on ways and
means he was the leader of his party on
the floor of the house of representa-
tives and carried his bill through with
practically unanimous democratic
vote. He was alert, active and earnest.
No man ever struggled harder to at
tain party victory. He was success
full. His bill did not become Il law, but
that was not his fault. He did his part,
and did it magnitcently. No party
leader was ever more successful, SO far
as the house Representatives was con-
cerned. The way was blocked by the
senate, and the Mills bill is now n
reminiscence. But the man whose
name was given to it, still remains in
public life as one of the leaders of his
party in the senate. He is honest to
the core of him, and as earnest in his
political views as ever.
Justin Smith Morrill,, of Vermont, now
IS years old, is one of the grand menof
this nation. He has been in congress 40
years and has served his country with
honor and distinction. He has the
honor of having his name connected
with the tariff bill of 1868, which pro-
duced the revenues required during the
civil war and for many years after
wards. He has always been repub-
| lican, and his position as chairman of
| the senate committee on finance has
brought him prominently before the
country in all revenue legislation. He
is an old man, and speaks on all public
affairs with the utterance OF an oracle.
His once powerful voice is now weak,
but when it is announced that he will
address the senate he is always given an
audience by his colleagues. He cannot
now be heard by the galleries, but IN
the days of his virility he was mag
niticent orator, and thousands tioclled
to hear BIN. He is gentle and modest
man, never showing any of the ele-
ments of egotism which often mar the
good of publicmen. SMITH ID. Fry.

Covering EnsiIare,

The best covering is one that is cool
and moist while at the same time ex-
Guiding air the best. Many have used
very successfully green or even wet
weeds and grass. This soon rots suffi-
ciently to form an almost impervious
stratum over the surface. Usually about
two feet of tramped damp green ma.
terial Is used. It is expected of course
that this will all rot down into a soft,
slimy mass. If the heat is very great in
the 81 10, which It is ikely to be il the
material put in is rather dry, this COW
ering may become fire fanged and dry
instead Of rotten. The object Of using
water and trampliDg ensilage Is to cause
better solidification, thereby excluding
more air than If left mwet and un-
tramped and to arrest the heating of the
material
Ensi1age appears to be better IL it
heats after being put In the silo, but
this heating should be arrested in a
short time, or it will produce mold. As
to the quantity Of water, that should
depend altogether ON the character of
the material put in. Only Judgment can
direct this matter. If the corn is quite
immature, there should be no occasion
for watering it. II ii is mature and dry,
then it would bear considerable water,
especially at the surface. There are no
exact experiments as yet which indicate
what method should be practiced or
what material should be used In cover
ing a silo to secure best results. --Coun-
try Gentleman.

Tsdaa.

Tho following IL given In brief es the
theory most generally entertained by sci.
cntists, with few exceptions, concerning
tides: II Is assumed that the. moon, acting
alone, would not only raise wave on the
side Of the Garth nearest to 1t by gravita-
tion, but would also draw the earth itself
far enough out OF its course to leave be-
hind some OF the water on the farther side,
which water would then be raised relative
ly to the earth's surface and constitute
the second tidal wave. The sun alone
would act similarly, although its tide
raising effect is only about two-flfths that
Of the moon. Now, at new moon the So o
and moon pull together" and give higlr
er tides than at tho first and third quar.
ters, when tho sun draws its right angles
to the line Of the moons attraction, an d
at full moon. when the sun is on the ol,-
posite side Of the earth from the moon,
virtually tho same effect is observed as at
new moon, but the double tide raising ~.
tion Of the sun would again be superini-
posed on that of the moon and give tides
on opposite sides as high as those fort.
