Next It had a rto.it which could lo let down
itito tho ocean, uad traveling through tho
water would convert tau fit; balloon into a
captive oni'. This l!at is nKo sin-n in Fig.
1. There was lx-ikles u conical reservoir
holding eighty-live gallons. Whun the bal
loon was near tho water's edge a pail could
be let down, and twit water drawn up till the
reservoir was tilled. Tho reservoir was a
temporary ballast to hold tlie balloon from
hooting up into the higher regions wlwn the
sun should warm the air anil the inflating
gas. Lastly there was a triangular sail,
which tho aeronaut spread, and which tilled
with wind and helped drive them along at
the rata of nine knots an hour. Fig. 1

its float dragging and the air navigators fill

Fig. 2 is a double illustration. It shows
first a sectional view of the route taken; sm
ond, a flat map of the same. Tlio navigators
rose first to a height of l.'iUO ft-ef., and kept it
up at that height till nearly, morning. Tlwu
they rose to a height of 4,200 feet. During
the uigbt they witiiessttl marvelous phenom
ena in the way of shooting stars.
When they brought tlie lalloon dowu, it
come to within 100 feet of the surface of the
water. The (tout is arranged with orifices
that All with water when it is submerged.
This makes weight and rctanls the balloon
by dragging on it. When it was desired to
raise the balloon again the float was emptied.
They crossed the Thames at an altitude of
1300 foet, and landed at Tottenham station,
Just out of the city. They steered the
machine partly by means of the sail, taking
advantage of the direction of the wind. This
successful exicrimciit in steering a balloon
has been hailed with wclcouiu the world
over.
The Silver Money ueUon.
The English government has appointed a
royal couiiiiLssioii to inquire into the pro
priety of retoriiig silver to its f oritur posi
tion, as a measurer of valuus, in couuection
with gold. Bi-m.'talism, it will lo rpimem
lierw, was the rule) of the commercial world
for nearly seventy-live years. What, is meant
is, that tho majority of the leading nations
agreed to permit free couiagu of gul l uud
silver, at a ratio of tlftwn mid a half j iu ts of
the whito to one of the yellow. Tlio only
leading natio;i which mode gold the sole
staudurd of values was Croat Britain. Since
1810 every debt ilue a IlrilL-li Mibjin t was
payable in London in gold. I!ut, on the con
tinent and in the I'liitM Htates tho tty
ment could lie made in silver us well a gold.
When Germany, after the war, exacted
l.OOO.OOO.OtK) from Fiance, the latter was
forced to pay in gold, and Germany took mi
vantage of this payment to follow tho ex
ample of England, and inodo gold the tola
unit of value. Denmaik, Scandinavia, Italy,"
and for a time tho United Suites, followed
the example of Germany, and the ro.u't was
that golil increasrxl in purchfloiiig jHivver,
which fact showed itself in the cheapening ol
every article the value of which gold meas
ured. This included silver. Tho result has
been very great digress in the business
world, as no one liked to produce goods on a
falling market. The United States artuUly
remonetia d .-i!ver, and. because of that fact,
baa enjoyed Us u-r t.i.m-s than has Euro.
India, that li an cxehi-ive silver currency,
has been terribly Uistrewed, because it ha
hat! to pay its debts to England in gold, and
the rate of exchange has been ruinous. This
is why England is taking steps to remonetizo
iilTer, and so check the ruinous fall in priis.
Should this be accomplished, financiers pre
dict a new era of prosperity for the whole
world. Demomft's Monthly.

Recently we have taken advantage of

something toward stopping w-.Ih-. In

dairy house, and nothing else is kept
there. He has a boiler, with a two-horse
power engine, for churning. Ho has his
cows come in during the fall ns far as pos
sible. Ho lays down u bushel of corn and
a bushel of oats in his windmill. He puts
a bushel of this with a bushel of wheat
bran and feeds each cow four quarts a
day when in milk, alo feeding good hay.
In his largo barn in cold weather the
temperature never goes below 45. Ho
uses spring water, which never freezes.
In winter he wuters Lis cuttle only once
a day. Of course ho does not get quite
as much milk in winter as in summer.
He cuts his corn ear'y and feeds that,
lie gots more butter in November than in
any other mouth in the year. Ho has
butter a year from each cow,
Marketing Celery.
Celery intended to be taken to market
must not be removed from the pit or row
while it is green. It is not salable in that
condition. The preparing for market is
tho most expensive stage through which
the crop passes. Every scjiarute root has
to bo dug, trimmed, knifed, washed and
uu
packed. Sometimes two, or even three
roots are required to make a bunch
equivalent to one good sized root. Ten
diKScn bunches, even after the digging
and bringing into the shed, will make a
large day's work for one tnau to prepare
for market.
Celery is
usually packed in boxes of
three dozen iu each. If tho celery is
large, ol'teu two and a half dozen will
1111 tlie box. Celery cannot be grown,
counting every root, for less than four
cents per root. At wholesale the price
of celery varies from $1.50 to 1(0 per box
of two and a half to three dozen, according
to the season.
Drain rurrowa.
Sin"e the introduetiou of reaping and
mowing machines the practice of throw
