Mj last bulletin gavo forccaots of tho storm wave to cross tho continent from Oo tobor 14th to 17th and tho next trill rcnh the Pacilio coast shout the 17tb, cross the wcatorn mountains about tho ISth, the great central vallejs from 10th to 21st, and the eastern states about tho 22d, This disturbance will cause licavj rains west ef the Allrghanies, and will develop its greatest fores in thojeast crn states. No great extremes are ex pectsd for tho reuiaindor ot this month. The last ton dnjs of the month will average warmer than the ten dsjeHpricedlng. General killing frosts may bs expected in northern portiens of the ootton belt from 8th to 10th and 14th to 17th of November. Warm wave will cross the western mountains about October 17th, the great central vallejs about the 19th and the eastern states about the 21st. Cool wave will cross the western mountains about the 20th, the great central valleys about the 22d and the eastern states about the 24th, WINTER WEATIIKn. Weather records of tha 1893 crop growing season an now complete, and indioate, to some extent, what the eomieg winter weathor will be. Whilo excessive drouths have been confined to a few localities of small extent, tha total area of rainfall 'defi oienoy is large. Of 112 stations oast of the llocky mountains, 70 show a deficiency of rainfall from March 1st to Sopttxiber 25th, and for the sauio period and territory, only ten stations show a large exoess, while 34 show a largo deficiency. West of the Itooky moun tains four stations show a deficiency and eight an excess; thrco stations a largo excess and ono a large dcGsiency. Altogether n large deficiency of rainfall has oocurrod, and this indi cates that the earth's atmosphere, re sponding to the demands of planetary metorology, has beon expanding and absorbing a largo amount of water. That water would remain In the at mokpherc, and the latter would remain cloudless were it not for the iaflucneo of the moon and planots. ' Altogether the sun has a greater effect in expand ing and condensing tho atmosphere, than do all the planets and moon com bined, but the sun's changes are so gradual, that our atmosphere would respond without causing rain, if thero was no moon and no planets. The latter cause very sudden changes, and to them wo are indebted for clouds and rain. This statement will not be endorsed by the weather bureau at Washington, but it is cor rect, nevertheless. The atmosphere i bow largely ex panded and loaded with moisture. That expansion has gone to its limit before the middle of list month, ad we now have before us a long term of atmospheric contraction axd excesses of rainfall. The reader must remember, how ever, that univorsal exoess nor univer sal deficiency of rainfall ever occurs, The coming weather will probably give us excessive rainfalls at as many stations as v e have had deficiencies within tho past year. But this docs not indicate that excessive rainfalls will oocur in all eases where deficien cies are reoorded during the past year. The two extremes somstimes oeour in localities comparatively near oaoh Bismarck and Moorhead, Sah Antonit and Qalvcston, Pensacola and Jack sonville, Washington and Charleston, Baltimoro atid Lynohburg, Eastport and Portland, Maine, and Portland and Olynipia. In oaoh of these oases, the first-mentienod havo a defioieaoy during the past season, and tho othor an excess. The general outliic of the weather has changed, and we are now in a uew rainfall program, No one weloemes the change more than the writer, for wherever rainfall is deficient, the ver ifications of my forecasts arc not so readily noticed. The careless cbserv er does not noto tho ohanges of wind and Umpernture ns readily as he does rainfall, and there foro where a dreuth prevails, ho conoludcs that my ; fore etsts aro not voriGcd, although my general foreoasts have reference only to winds, temperatures and storm waves, while rainfall forecasts are not mado in every bulletin. I havo just completed my calcula tions ns to tho temperature and the storms of tho coming winter. It will be a "hard winter." I do not mean that it will avorage excessively cold, but excessively ohangeablo. Temperature, liko rainfall, is ex cessive and deficient in spots, and while tho temperature of tho eoming winter will bo about an average of past winters, it will run to great ex tremes, and those extremes will usual ly occur in limited areas, Weather conditions cf the 1891 crop season promise better general crops than were made in 1893. In Homo largo localities a groat change for the better will occur. Old Mexico New Mexico, Arizona, western and southwestern Texas, will have a largo increase of rainfall. Those countries have been greatly tfilicted with drouth for three years, but they have a bright prospect ahead of them, and for sever al years to come they will have an abundance of rain, good crops and good grazing. Crcps arc never universally good, and somo portions of the country will necessarily suffer from local 4Ruth or excessive rains. Chemists have determined that crops do not rob tho soil of plant food. On tho contrary, the production of crops adds plant food to tho soil, even where tho crops are, for years, re moved from the fields. Why, then, do tho soils wear out and become un productive? Tho worn out sous are as full of plant food, or tho materials found in plants by chemical analysis, as are tho virgin soils, These facts certainly prove that tho plants are not fed from tho soil but from tho atmos phere, and that the soil is incapacita ted for doing its part in drawing nu trimont fram tho atmosphore for tho plant, A falso system of cultivation is certainly tho cause, aud wo should study nature's sy.lcm. Tho forests do not wear out tho soils in which thov crow, but enrich them. Of thoir growths thoy return to the soil only their leavc3, and if their woody subitaucos ramo from J tho scil, the Utter would leconio unproductive, May not the mistake of agriculturalists be in turning the soil? That is not naturos way. Top soils are certainly fitted for top roots of plants, whilo lower noils aro fitted for bottom roots, That appears to be true where naturo's plan of cultivation is not interfered with by man. Soils become packed, hardened and theroforo unproductive, but may they not bo loosened and pulverized without inverting them? Possibly turning tho soil upsido down is as diloterious to tho plant as stand- m. llMrT.aA 1 Absolutely pure A orcam of tartar baking powdor.

Again one of Webster ooanty'a roost popular professional men baa been honored by tbe nomination to a position of worth on the strongest ticket in the state. We refer to the ' ' action of the republican state oonven ' tion last Thursday, when they placed in nomination as ono of the Regents of the State University, Hon. Chan. W. Kalcy, of this oity. Tho nomination has given general ' satisfaction hero inasmuch as Mr. Ka lcy is well and iavorably known' to a majority of our people in this congressional district, having scryed4 in. scvcralupublio offices of Big nifiaanco with honor to himself and fairness to his constituents. .Mr. Kalcy was born in Union county, Pennsylvania, December 12tb, 1846, ' and when seven yoara old removed with his parents to Carey, Ohio, where bo was raised on a farm. Here he re ocived a thorough education in the high bcbools of thatp!aoe. and Wittea ' berg eollcgd at Springfield, Ohio. lie ' then did educational work for foar years, and in the spring of '74 eatae to Red Cloud, and began the study of ' law with bis brothor Hon. II. S. Kaley. Ho taught tho Red Cloud high sohool ono year, was admitted to the bar ,ia 187C, and formod a co-partnership with his brother tho same year the firm enjoying a lucrative praotlce, ie remunerative that after his eleetioa aa county judgo 1879 he resignoi before the expiration of tho term, after sey oral months of efficient service m that office In tho )oar:of 1879 he waa married to Miss Cyrelia A. Widney of Auburn, Indiana. In tho year 1881, occurred tho death of his brother and partnor after whioh he re Burned tho praotico of law wit a younger brothor, and tho same year ho was. appointed by Gov. Nance as a member of the state nor mnl school board to fill tbe vacancy caused by tho death of his, brother. Ho waa reappointed in '83 bj Got. Dawes and again in '88 by Got. Thayer, sorvinu in all twelve year. During tho year 1881, ho was eleoted to the stuto legislature, t fill va cancy, and sorved in tbe special term of '82. This concludes a briof sketch of ' his lifo, and Tijk CuiRF knowing hint to bo a typical gentleman thoroughly conversant with all matters of publie nature, wishes him all the success 4 It ski kit.
