The Fl. Poehler Company, grain
commission merchants of Minneap-
oils, who, by the way, have for years
been close students of climatic
changes and methods of farming in
the Northwest, and whose opinions
and suggestions are certainly worthy
of some consideration, have the fol-
lowing to offer:
A PERTINENT FACT THAT ALL FARMERS
SHOULD KNOW.
1t has been demonstrated beyond
c avil that the prime enemy to the
IN Maturing of wheat in certain por-
tions of the northwestern and south
western states is the hot winds which
strike about the time the wheat is in
the milk or dough, thus shrinking
the kernel and ~depreeiating the
grain in weight and quality. Any
remedy that a be applied to cor
rect this matter or that would have a
tendency to materially reduce the
evil could not but be Of immense
value to the producer and thus to
the whole country at large, especial
ly to the sections where hot winds
prevail.
THE REMEDY.
A drill should be used in putting
in the seed. The drill should be run
from east to west and never from
north to south.
A drill should be used because the
grain is better covered and the roots
better protected, and therefore better
able to stand a dry spell.
WHY FROM EAST TO VEST
Because the hot winds come from
the south, and if the rows of grain
ran from north t o south, they have
free access through the rows of grain
to the roots /; whereas if the rows
run from east to west, the first few
would form a barrier to the
wind getting at the roots, and each
row would shade its neighbor from
the heat of the suns rays, and thus
protect the roots from drying out.
This is so simple and seems so
plausible and without flaw that every
one should have thought of it, but
have they (?
1t may be another case of Column
bus and the egg +; let it be tried.

Remarkable weather Phenomena Hap

peni0g In These Days.
A curious phenomenon occurred az
Hartford the other night, resulting from
a high wind and a slight fall OF moist
snow ON an icy surface. Tho wind
caught the snow and rolled it up into
thousands of snowballs. Hundreds OF
balls were whirled up and sent rolling
along, gathering snow at each turn and
each leaving its marked trail behind.
The wide slope of land surrounding
Trinity college was n field OF rolling
snowballs. Dr.. Samuel Hart thus de-
soribes the phenomenAn:
"The rotary wind Jaw Catches the
snow and rolls it up like q muR ia cy-
lindrical form. Most that | saw were
about eight inches wide and eight inches
in diameter, followed at the two ends.
They are in effect isosceles triangles OF
snow rolled up on the vertex."
The same phenomenon occurred about
l2 years ago.. Some Of the wind made
snowballs were as large as half barrels.
Chicago was visited by a most singu-
lar meteorological phenomenon a few
nights since. Black snow, yellow snow
and brown snow fell in binding clouds
oven the entire city, and reports from
suburban towns brought the news that
the y~aricolored storm was not an exclu-
sive Chicago production.
The chief of the weather bureau at
Washington says:
1.-THE black snow that has lately fallen
in Chicago and the northwest is similar
to the great fall of January, 1895, the
nature of which was thoroughly inyesti-
gated by the weather bureau at that
time. Notwithstanding the theoretical
suggestion that the black deposit on last
January might have come from beyond
the earth and might be meteoric or CO.
metic, or might eve be the volcanic
dust from Alaska or Japan, careful in
v~estigation showed that it was due to
none of these causes.
"On the contrary, microscopic exami-
nation proved that the black deposit
contained about 4 per cent of the most
delicate organic structures (such as dia-

of the finest possible inoragnic matter,
such as makes up the ordinary fine silt
and clay soils. All this fine material is
easily caught up by the dry winds when
ever they exceed 20 miles per hour and
is carried to great distances before it
settles on the ground. 1t is easily
brought down in large quantities by
snow or rain, but is only perceived by
the ordinary observer where there is a
clean surface of snow for it to fall upon.
Large portions of country from Nebraska
southwark to the gulf are covered by
this fine soil, whose depth sometimes is
100 feet. A gale of wind has been
known to carry away six inches of the
surface soil from a freshly cultivated
field and spread it over the land 100
miles away. The blackness is due to the
ineness of the silt and not to any mag
netic iron. New York Sun.

in the eastern states they howl
that it is the populists who have
