WOltTH KNOWING.
Johnny Elder and John Hughes think
that alfalfa is the best hay for sheep.
Some of our readers waut tn know the
philosophy of drilling wheat east and
"est and harrowing north and south-
Likely Mr. Wren lias tried that method
with suooess, though there might be
some other reason unknown why a good
orop was harvested.
SOME GOOD SUGGESTIONS.
A good remedy to prevent juck rabbits
from gnawing fruit trees is to wash them
with a solution made by soaking dog
manure several days in water. It has
been tested, and is a sure cure.
A good way to water plants, where
gardens cannot be irrigated, is to plant a
tin can, with a hole in the bottom, at the
Uide of the plant and fill it with water
The ground will not bake, and the wat, r
will reach the roots.
Give rhubarb and cabbage plenty of
manure; also vines ot all kinds. Vo not
plant melon seeds or other vines very
deep in the ground, unless the ground is
warm and dry. A. L.

The prospects at present for cattlemen
are brighter than they have beeo for the
past three or four vears, says the Baker
City Democrat. The late heavy snow
falls are more of a beneiit to our stock
men than a detriment, as many may sup
pose, but it would not, had oar stockmen
been unprepared to meet the oontin
genoy. Backed with the heavy bay crop
last year, our stockmen are in a ren
dition to battle with the severest weather
and it makes hut little difference how
heavy the preoipitation of mo t, provided
it does not remain on an nuusunl length
of time, but in that event, they have snf
Qoient hay to see them through, and the
loss in this section will be nominal. In
fact the per cent, will be less than it has
been for any season, during the last ten
years.
Although it is something unusual to see
snow fall to the depth of five or six
inches in a few hours at this season of
the year, it will nevertheless be product
ive of good results, and the weather clerk
has the thanks of both the stockmen and
the plaoer miner, aud we might say our
whole populace, for his late donation
whioh ue little expected.
A sufficient amount of snow has fallen
in the valley to thoroughly moisten the
ground and place it in the flueat con
dition for plowing and sowing, while the
ranges are looking well for the Bnmmer
and the monstrous snowbauks buck in
the mountains will furnish an unusual
sui ply of water whn it is most need-d.
The failure of crops in Kansas and
Nebraska laat year caused a heavy loss
to cattle owners in those sections. Tin
numbers were greatly rednoed, whicli
has a tendency to increase the demand
and strengthen prioes. Eastern dealers
are compelled to look westward for their
I supplies, and the outlook for stockmen is
growing brighter every day.

This storm is the most violent and de
structive of all atmospheric disturbances
The derivation of the term has peculiar
significance. The Latin word is tornado
torvare, to turn, or in other words, a
whirling wind. The Spanish and also
the Portugese term is fornudo, which
menus to return or turn upon itself. Au
effort appears to have beeu made to ooin
a word that would convey the idea of '
small, whirling. 0) liudrical olond, accom
panied with much violenoe The wot
tornado has no uncertain derivation
About three centuries ago it posaesse,
pructioally the aame meaning that it ha.
to-day. Over 200 yearn ago, British sei
meu reported their experiences with tor
uadoes (water-spouts) off the Northwest
coast of Africa. From the knowledge
acquired by these early seamen, we tract
the use of the word tornado to England
and thence to the English oolonies it
Aruerioa. As eatly as lo82, we find tin
record of a tornado at New Haven, Con
neolicut, June 10th, i.t 2:30, p. m. A
minute and very interesting description
was prepared aud preserved of its pecn
linr features, whioh reads as if the storm
ot ourred but yesterday. The condition
of tornado development are: (1) An
unstable state of the atmospoere which
iccit s in the cloud regions. (2) The
ipposing movement of warm, moist ant!
cold, dry air ouireuts, the latter over
flowing the former. (3) The existeuoe.
of a gyratory moliou in the air relative
to some central point. The region
most favorahle for the oooui
renoe of tornadoes are the Mississippi
Missouri aud Ohio valleys, aud the Gull
and South Atlantic states. Tornadoes
are confined almost entirely to the sum.
mer season, the months of greatest fre
qnenny being April, May, June and July.
the mouth of greatest frequency is May
It may be generally stated that tornadoes
lo not occur in the Uutted States west of
the lUUth meridian. This atotm is un
known in California. The tornado in.
variably assumes the form of a funnel,
shaped cloud, the smaller eud drawing
near to or resting upon the earth. The
cloud aud the air beneath it revolves
iliotit a central vertical axis with iuoon
oiiivnhle rapidity, and always in a direc
tion contrary to the movement of the
hands ot a clock. The average width ol
the parts of destruction is about eighty
rods. The wind velocities ot the tornado
oloud vary from 100 tn 800 miles per
hour. The tornado almost invariably
ooours iu the afternoon, just after the
hnttfst part of the day. The hours ot
greatest freqneuoy are from three to five
p. m. A tornado passing over a body of
nter gives rise to what is culled a water
spout. No building, however construct
ed, oan resist the violeut incurving and
uplifting winds of the tornado's vortex.
The average length ot a tornado's path
is about 25 miles. The general direction
of movement is from S. W. to N. E. The
tornado is a purely local storm, and al
ways destructible. John P. Findlet,
Lieut. 19ih Infantry, S. 0., in obare.

0NFCBLI6UED MATTER KOR LITLRART WOBK.
A decided acquisition to the stuff of
the Cosmopolitan Magazine is Mr. Bran-
lor Mathews, President of the Nineteenth
Oentnry Club, the well known litemteur,
vho takes charge of the department- of
look reviews. The keen ordinal taste of
lr. Matliewa, and his fine judgment in
uerary matters, will mnke his opinion
allied iu t v iry household. Mr. .Mathews'
nue, added to that of Edward Everett
I. ile, iu charge, of "Social Problems";

iu Darkest America is a concise Uiaoos--lou
of the lndiau questiou witu n great
variety of pertinent illustrations. Mrs.
Van Renssnhier Cruger writes of the
slovenly dressing of Americana, aud no
one IB better qualified to review the sub
ject thoroughly. A departure in uiagu
ziue woik is the long expected autobio
graphy of Frederic Villiers, the famous
war correspondent. Villiers writes as
well as he illustrates, and his "Story of a
War Correspondent's Life" is as enter
tainingly writteu as is sKillfully lllustra

story of Ibrdliug adventure "How I Shot

"BADOEK CLUB," OF OREGON.

The question ot organizing a Badger
Club of former residents of Wisconsin
has been under consideration for several
mouths, and finally "materialized" ou the
evening of February 181 b, when ntarly
sixty Wiaonusiu people met at the Hol
loa House and appointed a oommittee to
draft a Constitution and By-laws, and
report in one week; at thu adjourned
meeting the Constitution aud By-laws
re adopted, nnd othoers elected ns

The ohieota of the unit), as set forth id
