home in Bristol on the 18th inst, aged

DR.. Dowie may be a missionary
crank, but ali the same the doctrines
he breaches are practical. They aim
| to make men clean, to work a moral
reform. The so-ca11ed christianity
preached by many other denomina-
tons is very respectable Sunday re-
1igion-it might be apt1y termed a
fu11-dress religion, full of fine spun
theories, but which seem to have very
little effect on the morals of devotees.
They hang their religion up in their
closet with their best clothes. During
the week they might be called the dis
cip1es of the devil. They drink whis
key, chew tobacco, eat hog, fight,
swear, use obscene language all the
same as other folks.
If the crusade against splitting in
public places, now being inaugurated
in some cities, would extend all over
the country it would be consumation
most devouted1y to be wished for. 1t
is most disgusting habit and one en-
| tire1y unnecessary.
Mrs. Thomas Getting, who had the
misfortune to break her thigh some
time ago, is able to be up once more.
She is 81 years old.

This is but one Of the paradoxes dis
closed from a careful review Of the &C
tual feeling among Republican sena-
tors with respect to the shipping bill.
Fortunately, however, the extent of
this feeling has been fully uncovered,
with the result that explanations have
been made on both sides that have
vastly cleared up matters and given
each side a better view Of the others
position Senator Mcmillan and the
three or four other powerful and in1u-
entail Republicans in the senate who
were in accord with him in their secret
nnisgivings regarding the shipping bill
have been treasured from complete
knowledge of the facts. Fortunately,
therefore, the Republicans are able to
present a united front to the opposi-
ton, which unity Of purpose, coupled
with a determination to bring the bill
to vote, insures its passage through
the senate beyond O peradventure at
this session. J. 3. ACRES.

ALOT OF WATER.

After a drought of almost unprece-
dented length and severity there fell
in the state of Iowa on the night of
the 9th of July an average of ~
inches of rain. 1t is interesting to do
a little figure work on this thing. 1t
meant 40 tons of water deposited on
each acre of land. 2T.000 tons on each
quarter section farm. 10S,SO0 tons on
each section and the enormous aggre-
gate of G.O35, GSO,OOO tons for the whole
state. Probably every drop Of this
water came from the gulf of Mexico,
evapOrated from the waters Of the gulf,
blown landward and nOrthward up the
great trough Of the Mississippi valley
and, coming in contact with cold all
currents of the upper atmosphere, the
Vapor so collected was precipitated IL
such measure that all the people re
turned thanks for the coming of the
blessed rain. Mans attempts at irri
cation seem very puny and futile in
deed when compared to the magnifi
cent scale upon which the Creator irri
gates the thirsty earth.
Milford chronicle., 1901-08-23

We are asked to say something about
the fertilization of the corn plant, the
drought and hot winds which prevailed
over the corn belt during July just as
the corn was tasseling having awaken
ed much interest in this subject. Every
one who grows corn will have noticed
the development of the tassel and the
bunch of silky threads protruding
from the tip of the future ear of corn. |
In plant lore the tassel is the stamen |
and the silk the pistils. If the tassel |
is watched as it develops, it will be /
seen to bloom and win become loaded |
with pendent blossom, which carries /
4 burden of pollen or yellow dust, this
condition Of bloom and pollen shedding
lasting for n day or two. The winds
shake this pollen down and it falls
upon the open and receptive silks. each
/ of these silks being connected with an
/ embryo kernel of corn on the ear, and
/ here we have to halt, for it is not given
to man to explain or even understand
the mysterious process whereby the
touch of the pollen upon the tip of the
silk gives life and vitality to the EN-
bryo germ eight inches below in the
husk. Nature is exceedingly prodigal
in all her efforts at reproduction, and
so there is vastly more pollen produced
upon a field of corn than is needed for
the work of fertilization, so much
more that experiments have shown
that fully one-half of the corn in a
field may be detasseled and still insure
the perfect fertilization of the crop,
with the somewhat curious result that
better ears of corn will grow upon the
detasseled hills than upon those not
so treated, the reason being that the
vitality of the plant used up in the pro
; duction of the pollen is thereby divert
ed to the development of the ear. A
, temperature of 105 in the shade, espe
cially if accompanied by a hot wind
from the south, is fatal to this act OF
c fertilization, as above described, sucf

with which is associated memories OF
