EXPLANATION OF TIDES.


Law of Gravitation Governs Height

From T. rs Weekly. London.
The tide visits US practically twice a
day, rising 20 a height that can be meas
ured by so many feet In many places
II comes only once. and is measured by
inches. The tide-producing agents are
sun and moon, and the law by which
they act IS the law Of gravitation. This
law declares that there Is a force OF at
traction between two bodies. or. 20 put II
differently, that every particle OF matter
in the universe attracts every other par
ticle. the attraction depending on their
mutual distances and their mass TAX

High tide VIII be there
The waters on the distant side are
heaped up also. and this is a little detail
that puzzles most people, because here
one would naturally expect low water
The reason OF the seeming paradox Is
that the waters on the distant side are
thousands OF miles farther away from
the moon than is the earth's center. The
earth thus gets more OF the moons pull
than the distant waters. These waters
heap themselves up away from the earth

1910, the property of F. W. Harding,
Waukesha, Wis. During the past
three months he had become crippled
with rheumatism and the severe heat
of late no doubt FASTENED his end.
He was bred by j. Deane Willis in
Wiltshire, England, and imported in
his dam, the great show and breeding

Robert Miller of Ontario purchased
Bapton Pearl, then three-year- old,
and the champion Shorthorn female
at the 1900 English Royal at first
cost of $4,000 for E. S. Kelly of Ohio.
In the herd of Mr.. Kelly, Whitehall
Sultan sired among many good ones
the prize winning and champion bulls
Whitehall Marshall, Avondale,
Whitehall King, Glenbrook Sultan
and Royal Sultan. These bulls we're
at which age he was purchased by
Frank w. Harding as a show bull and
for service in the Anoka herd, where
his u usefulness to the breed in Ameri-
ca probably stands without parallel
among the Shorthorn sires. His sons
head leading herds in many states and
when the results of the shows are
posted each year it has been remark
able to note the percentage OF winners
that claim the blood of Whitehall
Sultan. emphasizing at the same time
his build and heavy tieshing qualities.
When Whitehall Sultan was six years
old an offer of SIS, 600 was refused for
him. That same year Whitehall
Marshall brought $500 and this figure
was refused for Royal Sultan, then at
the head of the Lodi herd, and So, 600
was also refused for Avondale. Up to
this date nearly 80 sons of this great
bull have been sold from AnOka at an
average of more than $1,000 each, and
although few heifers have been spared
they have made prices running from
$500 to 81, 200. The death Of White
hall Sultan will be recognized as a
great loss to his owner and the breed
but what he has done for improve
