government records kept at the Fort
Hayes weather station, sixty miles
west of Ellsworth, show that there
was as much annual rainfall in west
ern Kansas during the '6Os as during
the '70s or sos. If we except the
present year there was more rainfall
in western Kansas in 1875 than in
any twelve month period since that
time, and yet, according to the To
peka paper, the moist area" had not
yet passed to the westward of juno
ton City. The truth about the western
region OF Kansas is that the rainfall
has increased little, If any. However,
its character has been changed most no.
ticeably by the coming of civilization.
There used to be great deluges once
or twice summer, and the snowfall
came with blizzards III the winter sea-
son. Now the rainfall is showery in
it's character, being dispersed more
evenly through the. growing season,
and this is due, no doubt, to the plough
ing of the soil, allowing a constant
evaporation, which gives cause to local
showers.

Our foreign exchanges report that at
one of the meetings Of the South Afrl-
can Lighting association to account
for the shrinkage in the consumption
of gas, it was explained that the gov
eminent of Cape Colony has adopted a
standard time which moved forward
each day one hour, says the Electrical
Review. Now, the people of South
Africa regulated their daily affairs by
the clock before this change, and they
still do so. They rise one hour earlier
and go to bed accordingly. This shift
ing forward of the day in effect ex-
tends twilight into the night. Street
lamps are lit an hour later-accordin
to the clock-and as they are extin-
guished at the regular time, an hour
of lighting is saved. IT does not APP
pear that the new life is less enjoyed
than the old. as doubtless the chickens,
cats and other domestic animals have
also adopted the new day This is
surely an exceedingly simple and eff
fective method of reducing one item of
municipal expense, and we recommend
it to those towns which. owning mu-
nicipal plants, each. year have the
hard problem of making the income
meet the expenses.

Theological seminary, a learned doctor

have completed their seminary studies
to do newspaper work for a year or
two before starting out as preachers

change. The young preacher fresh
from the seminary has been living in
a special atmosphere and exclusive
surroundings which preclude a knowl-
edge Of the world and human nature.

Science is always profound, but not
always practical, and while it is en-
gagged in voluminous discussion of
complicated and obscure hypothesis,
some slmple-minded person with an in
tensely direct and practical apprehen-
sion of the subject goes to work and
solves mysteries that the philosophers
could never elucidate. Captain B. W.
Marston of Red River, La, a cotton
planter who is utterly devoid of scien-
tific knowledge, but intensely practi-
cal, is killing the boil weevils in Texas
by the acre and square mile with Paris
green and simple apparatus of his own
deyising. The cotton planters in Texas
appear to have entire faith in captain
Marston. and are willing to forgive
him all his deficiencies growing out Of
his lack Of scientific training. Then
there is an announcement Of a very
populous tribe Of red ants in Texas,
and these fellows, who are as pug
nacious as the japanese, have declared
war on the boil weevils, and are eating
them up, body and boots, so that be-
tween Captain Marston and his insect
allies the cotton fields of Texas are
going to be redeemed without any
thanks to science and It's profound
methods.

FRIDAY. JULY %, 1904.

Landlord Simeon Ford of New York,
who has just come back from foreign
ports, tells how much easier it is to
keep hotel in England than in this
country. If AN Englishman doesn't
want mutton chops for his breakfast,
he wants bacon and eggs. The land
lord can depend on that. over here,
however. it is different. The hotel
keeper must cater to dozens of dis
tinet food zones and the bill of fare
must take in everything, including
scrapple, hog and hominy. pie, dough
nuts and all the other local specialties.
