Ill Earth' Revolutions on It Axis, To gether with Its Journey Around the Sun. Are the Disturbing Factors No Watch Is Perfectly Reliable. If there is one single scientific problem fepon which more than another people appear to get mixed that problem is time. Standard time, local time, sun time are exceedingly difficult problems for the public to puzzle over, and when sidereal time enters the calculation the case is hopeless indeed. 1 have fre quently of late seen so many letters ad dressed this and other journals, all -touching upon one or the other of these chronological questions, that 1 have con cluded a short note explaining the main points of difference would be, at any rate, timely. If it only suggests to the young men in the business offices the idea of going to work at 9 a. in., local mean time, and leaving off promptly at 4 p. in.. Pacific standard time, the ques tion will have been shown to possess a practical side. The application of it, however, is purely a matter of taste.- Well, to come to time, the great chro nometer and regulator in chief to the business, social and scientific world is the earth itself. Turning u pon its axis in the period which we divide into twenty-four hours, the sun appears to cross the me ridian of each place on the globe once in that interval The moment at which it crosses the meridian of any place (Green wich), for example, is termed "local ap parent noon" at that place. This would be all very well if the earth and sun re mained fixed in their relative positions; or if the earth, completing, as it does, an annual revolution about the sun, did so uniformly in a perfect circle and that circle were in the same plane with the motion of daily rotation. Then the suc- : i 1 4--u :,i:. ceoxuve unci vain ucttvecu uw uiciiuidu passages of the sun at Greenwich would all be equal, and a perfect chronometer Bet at 12 hrs., 0 min., Osec., when the Bun transited today would indicate pre cisely the same instant for "apparent noon" at every date. MOTIONS OF TUB EARTH. But the earth's path around the sun is not a perfect circle; it is an ellipse, and the motion in one portion of the ellipse is tnore rapid than in another, and this causes a slight variation in the intervals between the solar passages. Again, the plane of the earth's path around the sun, or the elliptic, is inclined 23 degs. to the plane of the equator in which the daily rotation takes place, and conse quently twice a year the intervals of "apparent noon" are each about twenty seconds greater and twice a year about twenty seconds less than twenty-four hours. To explain just why this results would require more of an investigation into astronomical principles than is here contemplated; but it is so, nevertheless, and any text book will elucidate the rea sons. A combination of the two effects causes the sun to bo apparently slow fourteen minutes in February and fast sixteen minutes in November. But in the course of a year the average comes out all right, and therefore a "mean solar day" of exactly twenty-four hours is adopted in the almanacs and used for all purposes. This" accounts for the dif ference between mean time and sun time. A regulator keeps the former; a sun dial indicates the latter. A few years ago (or prior to 1884) every large city in the United States had its own local time, and this was for each place the true mean solar time, obtained as above indicated. REGULATING TIME. , Consequently, a man traveling west ward from ' Washington would find bis watch fast, as follows: At Chicago, 42 minutes ; at Omaha, 1 hour 16 minutes; at Denver, 1 hour 52 minutes; at Salt Lake City, 2 hours 20 minutes, and final ly, at San Francisco, 8 hours 2 minutes. It will readily be recalled how much annoyance was occasioned by all these various corrections, both to trainmen and travelers. About the year men tioned a great reform was inaugurated. ' j 4 i ; ,1 xvuwauavs a traveler guiug wcsiivtaiu finds his watch fast from time to time, but only the hour hand is in error. All the clocks in the country indicate the - minute and second ot Greenwich mean time, bnt the hour is changed for each 15 degs. of longitude. Washington time is 5 hours slow of Greenwich; Chicago, 6 hours; Denver, 7 hours. In San Fran cisco we are 8 hours slow of the prime meridian. All the intermediate cities - and towns are run on one system or an other, according to their location in longitude, the standards being eastern, central, mountain and Pacific time. All the time pieces on the coast are set by Pacific standard time, which is 8 hours slow of Greenwich mean time. " There fore, a watch which is set at San Fran cisco solar time by means of a corrected sun dial is still 9 minutes 42 seconds slow of a Pacific standard time clock, because we are that much in longitude X 4.1 . 1 1 west ui we iium luenuau, wuiuu lunua the eastern boundary of northern Cali fornia and on which only is the "Pacific time" coincident with "local mean time."

Gov't Report, Aug. 17, 1839. A LITTLE FAMILY DIFFERENCE. Two Old Ladles Differed Over a Small Matter, but the Elder AVon. Up on the Delaware and Hudson rail road the other day two nervous old ladies climbed on board the south bound train at Crown Point. They were of the same height, looked much alike and both of them wore gossamer rubber cloaks possibly under the vague impression that cinders melt. They fluttered into a seat near the door, evidently prepared for a long journey. When the bird cage, two satchels and three shoe boxes of luncheon had been properly stowed away, the two ladies sat down in unison, much as if pulled on one string. Beyond a vigorous attack on the luncheon an hour later, they quietly de voted their attention to the scenery un til Albany was reached in the late after noon. That being the terminus of the road, the passengers started for the car door as the train stopped, but there seemed to be a blockade of some sort on the platform. It wasn't just exactly a blockade; it was the tnjp old ladies from Crown Point. Equipped with satchels, the bird cage and the luncheon (now reduced to one shoe box), they had led the procession to the door, but had succeeded in getting no farther, as the train had run into the station on a middle track, and they could not agree on which side of the car to get off. "I tell you, Janet," said the old lady with the bird cage, with much dignity, "that this is the proper side. It is nearer the depot, and no doubt our train is close by. Come, don't be obstinate, sister," she added persuasively. "I will not leave the car on that side," declared the other, holding up the shoe box and both satchels as if for a barri cade, which the impatient crowd within the car thought quite superfluous. "If you tliink I am going to career across three tracks," she continued emphatical ly, "in front of moving locomotives, and risk ourselves and that precious bird, then I say, Hannah, you have lost your senses; that's all." "You seem to forget that I am older than you. Janet," rejoined the other with offended dignity. "That may all be, hut little good it's done. You would have scandalized the whole family at Cousin Maria Soper's funeral up at the Corners if I had not insisted" "Hey!" "What's the 'matter?" "Shake it up!" "Get off!" came in a chorus from the impatient throng inside. "Sakes alive!" ejaculated the beliger- ent Janet, for the first time observing ! the ctowd in waiting. "Come this way. Do come," pleaded the other. "1 won't" "You must; I insist,." cried the elder sister, stepping hastily down to decide ; the matter. There was no further 1 chanco for argument. Already the other ! passengers were pushing out. So, with an expression of annoyance and fright, tho second old lady tourist joined the other and tho two rubber gossamers be- ' gan their devious flight across the tracks . and before waiting locomotives toward : the station. They reached there at length, but it was apparent that some thing had happened. "I told you so! I told you so!" almost screamed the younger sister as soon a" she could catch her breath. "You say you dropped it?" asked the other in troubled tones. "Yes; that horrid engine let off steam and 1 jumped. I suppose I dropped it then. Why can't engines hold their steam till they get out in tho country, I'd like to know?" "Well, never mind, Janet, wo can get along," said the other soothingly. "But I do mind. I suppose, Hannah, I ought to be thankful that you and the bird are safe; but just to think," she added, with almost a sob, "the whole of Aunt Lucinda's sponge cake gone, and we've only got to Albany." And sure enough, some distance up the second track, reposing peacefully on the off rail, lay the familiar green out line of the last shoe box. New York Tribune. - Two Bold Compliments. A bold stroke to obtain liberty by means of a compliment was that made by M. de Maupertius, who when a pris oner in Austria was presented to the empress, who said to him, "You know the queen of Sweden, sister to the king of Prussia?" "Yes, madame." "I am told that she is the most beautiful princess in the world." "Madame," replied the cun ning prisoner, "I always thought so un til now." This was as diplomatic as the words and notion of the Marquis Medina, a Spanish nobleman. Queen Elizabeth, who had been admir ing his elegance, and cojnplimenting him on it, at the same time begged to know who possessed the heart of so ac complished a cavalier. "Madame," said he, "a lover risks too much on such an occasion; bnt your majesty's will is law. Excuse mo, however, if I fear to name her, but request your majesty's accept ance of her portrait." He sent her a looking glas3. London Standard. The Craze for Souvenirs. The popular craze for souvenirs which now prevails among persons who have money to spend is spreading in various directions. Formerly the silver spoon held undisputed sway, but now there are souvenir bracelets, souvenir napkin rings, souvenir buttons and souvenir fans.

' 4 LEARNING THE DAIRY. EUSINESS. From an Old Fashioned Dasher Churn to Silos and a Creamery. Mr. W. H. Gilbert is a promiuent New York dairyman, whose place is at Rich land, eight miles south of Lake Ontario. His farm is a sandy loam underlaid by gravel, and on this unpromising soil Mr. Gilbert has gradually built a famous dairy farm and creamery. Ho began in 1876 by losing money. He only kept the farm because he could not sell it. Mean time he studied books and dairy papers. His first progress was when he changed old fashioned native cows for Jersey stock. His next was improved methods of churning. Things most worth know ing came to him through losses for want pf acquaintance with the better way, and these things he never forgot. He wanted granulated butter, and learned that by adding water to the cream he could get it. Next he found that it was better to wasu uttermi3k out of butter than to work it out. He made no money to speak of for sev eral yeara. But there was this differ ence between Mr. Gilbert and many who make no money when first going into the dairy or butter business. They give up. He kept on. In a comparatively short time he triumphed. The next great stride forward was when he learned the supreme advantage of silage feed. After that things came easier and faster, so that in 1S81 he built a cream ery and engaged in the butter making business on a large scale. Ho raises all his own dairy cows, though he also buys milk for the creamery. In 1884 he had on his place ninety-two cows, all . of his own rearing. In explaining his methods to the editor of The Rural New Yorker, Mr. Gilbert said: ) I use a Cooley creamer, revolving box churn and Cunningham butter worker with corru gated rollers. When the milk is brought into the creamery in winter I at once add tq it about 12 per cent, of water sufficiently warm to raise the temperature of the mass from 05 to 98 degs. It is at ouce put In the Cooley creamer and us rapidly as possible cooled with ice down to 40 or 45 degs. It is skimmed after about eleven hours' setting. We milk at 0 a. m. and 6 p. m. the year round. ' I use the Boyd starter to ripen tho cream. This is, as you know, made from sweet skimmilk. The process of ripening requires twenty-four hours. "When the cream is put into the vat and the starter added I warm it up to 70 degs. in winter and 65 degs. in summer. I use for this purpose a cylindrical pail of tin about four inches in diameter and two feet long. I fill this wn!i hot water and then stir the milk with it, keep ing a thermometer, in the other hand. When the required temperature is reached It is cov ered air tight and not allowed to go lower than 62 degs. In winter I churn at a temperature of 63 dogs, and in summer at 60 degs. I use the same cylinder for warming the cream for churning. When the glass clears or tho but ter separates, I stop tho churn, open it and rinse it down with cold brine, pouring it through a hair sieve, so as to mako it like a spray. 1 then carefully draw oil the butter milk, when cold water enough to cool it below 55 degs. is added before tho churn Is again agitated. If disturbed before that tempera ture is reached it will gather in masses and you cannot wash it clean. "It is desirable to get all the milky matter, casein, etc., out before tho butter is massed. I use repeated washings until tho water comes away clear. To work It properly the butter must be raised to about 60 degs. If worked be low 55 degs. it will be crumbly, not compact. To get it to the proper temperaturo in cold weather I use for the last washing water warm enough to bring up the butter. It is then salted. I use from throe-quarters of an ounce to an ounce of salt to tho pound of butter. I work it but onc3, when it is put in prints or packed in tubs right from tho butter worker. No mature cow that produces less than 250 pounds of butter annually should be kept in the dairy. I would not discard a young cow that made 200 pounds in her first year; she may do better each succeeding year and at maturity be a valuable dairy animal. My best record was in one year, when I milked eighty cows which averaged 271 pounds of butter each." "What do you do with your skimmilk and buttermilk?" "Feed them to calves and pigs. I prefer grade Berkshires for swine. They seem to thrive admirably with mc." "What prices have you realized for your butter?" "I figured up before going to a dairy meeting In the spring of 1800, and found that for the seven or eight preceding years I had received an average of forty cents. It has been a little lower since." The editor The Rural New Yorker says: Mr. Gilbert's barn is a long, low build ing, with only an attic for a mow. He reasoned that with ensilage much less mow room would be needed, and he has found what he has amply large. The drop is covered with a grate, through which the droppings pass into a water tight trench, into which eome absorb ents are put. At intervals tho wagon is driven right around the stalls, and the manure is handled but once from the drop to the wagon, and thence to the fields. Sawdust is used for bedding, and plaster is sprinkled through every day, thus absorbing all the odors and adding to the value of the fertilizer. A swinging -stanchion is used in the stables. The lean-to is used for box stalls, for cows about to drop calves and for young stock. Water is carried to each cow in a trough, and she helps herself when it is wanted. The bottoms of the silos are on a level with tho stable floor, and the ensilage is loaded into a car which takes it to the cows. Mr. Gilbert has several improvements in the stables under way. His success is a capital illustration of what perseverance, coupled with intelli gent and studious methods, may accom plish. He has proved that the soil of that section is fertile, and that dairying may be made a profitable industry not by controlling the price of the finished 'products, bnt by reducing the cost of production. . A Neat Way of Putting It. - A neat compliment was uttered once by General Romaine. Meeting Lady de Bnentz, whom he had known and Ad mired in the loveliness of her youth, he commenced complimenting her. "You forget that 1 am an old woman," she said at length. "Madame," returned the gallant soldier, "when our eyes are dazzled by ' a diamond it never oc curs to us to ask a mineralogist for its history." London Standard. Hill of Calvary.
