WHAT WE PAY TO EUROPE

The discussion as to what America
pays Europe per annum through
tourist bills and the freight on our
foreign commerce, carried almost en-
tirely in foreign ships, has led the
New York Evening Post to interview
a man of long experience in the
Transatlantic trade on the subject.
He is quoted as saying that the
usual estimates of S500,O0O,000 and
$500, 100000 are gross exaggerations.
Our imports amount to 81, 2O0,OO0,0O0.
If we were paying $5OO,OO0,0OO freight,
it would be forty per cent of their
value; if $2OO,O0O,O0O, it would be
sixteen per cent of their value. Both
figures are inadmissible. B
The true proportion of freight 70
value, as he figures it, isabout n per
cent on valuable goods like silks and
about two and one-half per cent on
less valuable goods. On this basis of
computation our hundreds of millions
in freight charges dwindle to less
than $25, 100000. The same authority
figures that American passengers pay

done through all the ages.
DEFICIENCY is GREAT.

In view of the deficiency in precipi
tation now existing and which has
been more or less prevalent since
January of the present year, much in
terest is manifested with regard to
the amount received at Huron, from
January | to July 20, and from March
l to July 20, 1910, compared with
amounts received for the same per-
iods in some past years known as
"dry" seasons.
These facts are furnished by the
local office of the United States
weather bureau at Huron, which was
established July |, 1881: The total
precipitation (rain and melted snow
at Huron from January | to July 20,
1910, was 6.63 inches, l.49 inches OF
which occurred in January. The to,
tai precipitation from March | to July
20 was 4.9l inches. In both cases it
is the least recorded for the same
period of time since the opening Of
the United States weather bureau
office at this place.
The deficiency in precipitation as
compared with the normal or average
for Huron for the first period January
/ to July 2O) is 6.62 inches; for the
second period March | to July 2O),
7.39 inches.
The total rainfall from July l to
July 20 this year is 033 inch, or a
deficiency of 1876 inches for that per-
iod.
The following table furnishes inter
esting data relative to the precipita-
ton at Huron, for the periods noted
in the headings, for each year since
1881. The figures represent inches
and hundredths.

THE cow

The dairy COW, if able to express
herself in a way which the human
family would comprehend, might
we'll lay claim to being mans best
friend. She might establish such a
claim by calling attention to the fact
that from her product and from her
carcass man manufactures more of
the necessities of life than from any
other similar source. She furnishes
these necessities to him from infancy
until such a time as temporal things
are no longer associated with his
existence, and she does it ungrudg-
ingly and constantly.
In addition to contributing to mans
necessity and his pleasure, the pros
perity of an agricultural community
is more closely identified with her
than with any other of the domestic
animals. The horse is quite essential
in tilling the soil, but where necessity
requires it the sturdy son OF the COW
can take his place, as he has done in
every agricultural section on earth.
The horse can only furnish labor and
can only return a profit to his owner
when conditions are right for return
ing satisfactory grain crops. 1t is a
well known fact that the dairy COW is
the salvation of the farmer in times
of poor crops as she is able to convert
the rough crops which are never a
total failure, into dairy products
which always have a cash value,
In addition to this she furnishes
skim milk and butter milk for the
calves, pigs and poultry and fertility
for the soil, without which a farm be-
comes less valuable each year and the
whole country less prosperous.
The elimination of the dairy COW
would ~necessitate an almost revolu-
tionary readjustment of mans tastes
and requirements. 1t would mean
untold suffering and hardship. OF
course she will not be dispensed with
but her value can perhaps best be APP
preciated by contemplating such a
loss.
She will continue to be mans best
friend as long as the human family

The Ohio republicans in their plat
form endorsed President Taft in I'M
qualified terms. They also swallow
the late tariff abortion and say no
tariff bill was ever more unjustly as
sailed than the Payne-Aldrich law.
In this the Ohio republicans go
further than does even the president
himself. Taft has admitted in his
speeches that the tariff was not just
what it should be, and further he has
insisted on a tariff commission and a
liberal appropriation to investigate
the matter and ascertain where the
tariff is wrong. According to the
Ohio platform Taft's policy in regard
to the tariff is useless.

1t is very important that the finder
of one of these baskets should not in
any way tamper with the instrument,
as the record made by it is delicately
traced on a smoked cylinder, and any
obliteration of this record would
materially effect, if not wholly des-
troy, its value.
The Weather Bureau has to depend
for the results of these ~ascensions up
on the chance of someone finding and
returning the basket and instrument.
Out of thirteen ascensions made last
year at Omaha, Nebr., all but one OF
the baskets and instruments was
found and returned as directed.
The finder of one of these baskets
will not only greatly aid in meteoro-
logical research, but will as we'll con-
fer a favor upon the United States
Weather Bureau, by closely following
the instructions attached to the
basket.
The descent of the balloon parachute

have been found from three to four
hundred miles distant from the place
of ascent.

WATCH FOR BALLOONS.

Some time early in August of this
year the United States Weather
Bureau contemplates senting up from
Huron, S. Oak, a number of what are
known as Sounding Balloons" in
order to ascertain the condition of the
atmosphere at great elevations as
compared with that at the earth's
surface. These balloons are construct
ed of rubber and when inflated with
hydrogen gas measure from 6 to s
feet diameter, and have a lifting
capacity of from 6 to 10 pounds.
Each balloon carries with it a light
wicker basket containing a delicately
constructed instrument which auto
matically records the temperature,
pressure, and humidity in the region
of the atmosphere to which the
balloon ascends, which is in some
cases as much as II to Is miles above
the surface of the earth.
Attached to each balloon and
basket is a parachute. The decreas-
ing density of the atmosphere as the
balloon ascends permits the expansion
of the hydrogen gas to finally explode
the balloon, thereby releasing the
parachute, which gradually descends
to the earth and safely lands the
basket containing the instrument,
the latter having faithfully made its
record at every stage of its progress
through the air.
Attached to the basket is a card con.
tanning detailed instructions for who.
ever may find it, and offering com
pensation for its return by Express,
at the expense of the Government, tc
