To the editor of the New York Wol Permit me to tvaive one quill of my wings to add to the general flutter in the Shake- spearian dovecote over the startling sen- sation caused by Mr. Ignatius Donnel- ley's Bacon “cipher.”” And, while waving, I wave the too obvious opportu- nity of incidentally remarking that the new cipher will essentially differ from the conventional pher’” if 1t does not =40, and no more. I sup- pose that the late Richard Grant hith was our only American Shake- sperian scholar—I am pretty sure ho though so—but if now no scholars there is a considerable number of Shakespeare students, of whom 1 shall modestly claim to be one—at all events for iy present purpose, to-wit: “‘We'’ Shakespeare students are a cow- ardiy crowd to attempt to repel the Don- nell onslaught, Instead of defending we should attack: Admittng the similarity and sometimes identity of passages to be found both in Bacon and Shakespeare— especially let us acknowledge in the lately discovered ‘“‘Promus,” as paraded by Mrs. Pott—what remains for us 1s to cvoamvnly prove, as we easily can, that illiam Shakespeare wrote every one of the books attributed to Francis Bacon, from the *Novum Or- ganum’’ to the panfully protracted osthumous “‘Promus” paraded by Pott, an{ we “‘easily” can do this by merely makinga ‘‘cipher,” or even more easily by picking out the needed letters on any vage of the alleged Bacon books and stir- ing them u:gothc{ like\thls- k 3 S | 1¢'s as ensy as falling off & log. and the corner in Bacon would speedily collapse. I nave no doubt that Shakspeare actually assimilated a good deal of Bacon —accompanied by the adjunct eggs. Meanwhile I felicitate Mr. lgnatius Donnelly on the advance advertising so fhmously (and gratiously) secured for his for theoming book What a Change! A few short weeks ago that young girl was the personilication of health, vigor and beauty, The blush upon her cheek rivalled that of the rose; her step was light and buoyant, her every movement was a revelation of perfect physical health. Yet now she 1s pallid and hag- gard, and her superabundant vitality has, fivm.\ place to a strange dullness and ssitude. W hat has caused this chango? Functional irregularities, which can be cured by Dr. Pierce’s “‘Favorite Pre- scription,” a remedy to which thousands of women to-day owe tneir lives, All druggists, el Blethods of Opticians and Oculists, Chicago Mail: The man who is about to put on his first glasses deserves a good deal of sympathy. First, of course, be- cause to realize thet the earth with its plentitude is becoming indistinct is about as sad a thought, next ta secing a mind tottering, as ever entered one’s head. Bat this is not all. As if it were not enough for one to lose his eyesight, the victim must make up his mind to be fleeced.

When he found a J)Ail' that suited be bought them, and they did him service for many a year. Notso nowadays. You go to an optician, and he has a sort of machinery which you are hitched up to and put through an examination. After a weary struggle yuu are told that your eyes need treatment. No glasses will do you Il‘lf ood until your eyes have been cured. ghving ained your confidence, the optician places in your hand the card of an eminent oculist. You go there, and then begins the torture. Blisters on the the temple and dark rooms for days and days, and a bill that wipes out a month's ary. Maybe you are told at the ex- piration of the time that you require a certain sort of lens, and it can only be found at a certain optician’s. If you look closely—provided you have any eyes left—you will awscover that this same optician is the one who referred you to the occulist. There are, of course, cases that require this sort of treatment. But if a man’s eyes are so bad that they require the skill of an occulist, the vic- tim will prob-by find it out as soon ns an optician. I do not refer to any op- tician or oculist in particular. But in every city like Chicago you will find com- binations botween opticians and oculists, which they find to be mutually advan- tageous n a pecuniary way. _And they work the same for all in sight, LR L e Vigor and Vitality Are quickly given to every of the bod by Hood’s Sarsa- parilla, That ‘tired feeling is entirely overcome.

IMPORTANT PRACTICAL HINTS, Dr. Berry's Interesting Paper—A Great Barometric Trough—Atmos- pherical Movements—Reme- dies for Drouglts, At 1ast Thursday's session of the for- esty congress at Svringfield, 1il., Dr. Daniel Berry, of Carmi, Il1.,road a paper on “I'he Influence of the Western Tree- less Areas on Atmospheric Conditions East of Them.” Extracts from this valuable paper are appended: A few years ago the system- atic work of the United States signal service burcau established the fact that to the southwestward from the great lakes was o wide area of low barometric pressure which was persistent for several months in each year—notably during the spring and in sumimer. ‘This area has been cailed the great barometric trough of low pressure. Itisin the form of an ellipse, and is about 600 miles long by 400 miles wide. This area is subject to & great many frightful atmospheric dis- turbances, known as tornadoes, and to occasional periods of long-continued drought. It does not create these torna- does, but furnishes a grand field for their action after they are started on their carcer from other points. 1t is the object of this anwr to inquire as to whether these conditions can be modified and to indicate what apoears to me to be the solution of the problem. But first we must note that this ocean of ntmosphere 18 impelled in all its move- ments by identically the same force that nioves the oceun of water; namely, grav- ity. All our atmospheric movements are simply adjustments of equilbrium. To appreciate bow these movements oc- cur we have only to study the lnnlngous movements of water currents. Water runs down hill. The air does exactly the same thing. As streams of water flow down from the mountains into the val- leys 1in well-defined channels, just g0 do the atmospheric currents move down from areas of high pressura into the areas of low pressure, and are guided by the contiguration of the lands over which they flow. This is the simple problem, but it is generally rendered complex by the intervention of other factors. The states of Indianna, llhinois, Iowa, Mis- souri and eastern Kansas, wh onsid- ered in relation to sea-level, occupy a very low position. Any disturbarce of the atmosphers above them, from wha ever cause, either from shifting up by sun-heat or a movement to supply the needs of other regions southeastward of us over the Atlantic, would naturall; to a flow of air from the higher westward of us. The rapidity and vol- ume of this reinfcreing stream will de- pend on two caus First, the declivity of the hill down whi omes and the space to be filled up. y can measure this descent, which has two elements, one of altitude and another of pressure We can also measure the spuce to be ometer shows this without fail. In this locality whenever we have an area ot low pressure—which is rly constant in the months of May, June and July—we must expect the equilibrium to be restored by an in rush of air from tho plains to the southwest and west, which 1e about 5,000 feet above us. At other sensons of the year, or during the fall and winter months,when the area of low barometer §s southeastward of us, over the Atlantic, the reinforcing currents will be from the northwestern high plateaus. When we look for the cause of this great barometric trough of low pres- sure we find it due to two causes, The nearness of the great lake and the na- turat consequence of the sun's heat upon them, and second, to the added fuct of of immense cultivation, There is no spot on the giobe that presents asn consecutive square miles of plou land as this barometric trough. = During the tordado period a bird's-eye view of the urea would show thousandsand thou- sands of square miles of ploughed land prepared for corn, or only spei ered with oats or wheat; there etation to fix the sun’s heat in permane forms, and as a consequence this b runs riot and rampantin the atmosphere. By reason of its reflection and radiation from the water soaked ground dnd Inke surfuce, it lifts vast columns of vapor- ladened, heated air, that trend away to the northeast, to part with their vapor and dissipate their heat, thus following the general law of all superheatea streams of air and water the world over, to flow nwu{(rflm the equator, only to return to it by well established ways as colder streams. To preserve the equili- brium or to restore the lost balance caused by this upl ademand is made on the atmosphere of adjacent regions. The western winds, dry aud cold from n their passage to the Kuro Simo, or equatorial current,of the Pacitic, take up an immense amount of heat and moist- ure, reaching our shores saturated with vapor. They find an inlet to the land when theCascade range breaks down. Flowing eastward they let down their moisture on the dome of the continent, and furnish the water supply for our whole system of our majestic Iakes and rivers. “But a different fate befalls those winds that enter the country south of Oregon, Here they are thrown against the western flanks of the Sierra Nevaaa, where they are they are robbed of their moisture, and thus descend, cold and dry on the plateaus of Utah and Arizona. In this condition they move castward, with just such suflicilent moisture to answer the needs of the vegetation on the slopes, and to whiten the crest of the Rocky mouutains, After the total deple- tion they reach the plains of Colorado and New Mexico. In this coundition of dryness, but with their heat being con- stantly augmented by radiation from the parched plains, they keep on their move- ment eastward, Now,if you will notice, this barometric trough of low pressure, covering ti states of western Indiana, Illinois, south ern Wisconsin, eastern Iowa, Missouri and eastern Kansasis not much more than at good drainage height above the sea level, and 1s very low when com- pared with the plains westward, that tower 4,000 and 5,000 feet above it. When this fact ia fully appreciated, in conjunc- tion with a knowledge of physical law that, like water,the air never moves until is opened for it and a demand made on it by gravity, we can easily see how the air from the western plains will pour down into this burometrio trough to equalize the pressure. The data gathered so far is not suflicient to war- rant the conclusion that the prolific course of our tornadoes, during May and June, is the inrush of these western cold, dry currents to the partial vacuum of the barometric trough, yet we have enough data on which to ground such an assump- tion. But when we come to consider the effect of these winds in their passage over the arid plains, they have changed their character trom cold to dry, to hot and dry, we stand on surer ground, We know that when these winds join with the vapor laden air currents from the south, four effects are produced 1. A change of direction of the com- bined currents from south and west to northeast. 2. A diffusion of the yapor borne on the southern current among the hungry air from the west. 8.

P ey currents by the great increase of heat from the western current. 4. This increase ot heat gives the com- bined current o firmer grip on its mois- ture, and floating milmr,u we have seen, enables it to carry this moisture further to the northeast, causing excessive droughts along the route. A 18 there any way to change this con- dition? i ‘There is a remedy, simple and practi- cable; but from the nature of the case, immense 1n its application, and to suc- ceed must depend wholly on tho intelli- gent comprehensive co-operation of the states interested. These western winds must be tempered with moisture. But how? We have seon that their natural base of supply for moisture is the Pacific oceun; that 1n their passage eastward they leave a great amount of this moisture, in the shape of snow- fall, along the crests of the Rocky mountains. This snow-fall must be utilized for irrigating purposes along the easterp slopes of these mountains, 'This 18 the plan of attack on the western side of the arid region. The instrumentality on the eastern must be the plough, aa- vancing westward from the humid areas. I think there is now mno question but that the steady advance of agricuiture toward the southwest, in Kansas, during the past ten years, has projected the rain belt in the same direction. Under the old conditions of prairie sod the rainfall found an immediate passage into the drain channels, leaving little or nothing to be returned to the atmosphere. Under the new conditions of pulveriz tion the soil is converted into an im- mense surface reservoir for the retention of the rainfall. I believe that this prob- lem of temporing these western winds with moisture will, in time, be solved by the exigencies of our civilization by sys- tematic field and torest culture, but it can be hastened by intelligent inter-state action. Let me show you what private enterprise 18 doing in_Colorado, and 1 wish you to note its rationale: A com- any has tapped the Platte river in the Platte River canyon and by boring through a mountain brings the strcam out on a hign plateau of arable lands. The supply canal for these lands is about eighty miles long and 18 calculated to furnish water for 200,000 acres of grourd. Under the old condition the surface of the Platte ex- posed for evaporation for ths distance was not much over three square miles, This plan gives it an cevaporating surface equal to nearly 200 square miles. But we must measure its evaporating capacity by the area of the land that is irrigated. A more just approximation would be reached by calculating the combined su- perfices of the leafage that land su. B 'he plant roots appropriate the water and the leaves give itto the air around them. Sothat we see in this the fact that an irrigating ditch not only waters the ground, but practically pours that same water indirectly into the atmos- phere if that _ground “pe cultivated. It will be_readily seen how every enter- prise of this kind brings about a “modify- ing influence tendhg to laden the atmos. phere with vapor. The faculities for ex- tending this work are as yet barely com- prehended. Of one thing we may rest assured, the future of those states and territories along the eastern slopes of the Rocky moun- tains will see to it that not a drop of available water or snow _fall will be al- lowed to go to waste. There are thou- sands of places along these eastern slopes, in the narrow-mouthed gorges and canyons, where retaining dam_cau be built that will hold back the water from the melting snows in perma- nent lakes that shall form vastreservoirs available for purposes ot irrigation, The cost of such dams should be slight com- pared with the wonderful results that would be accomplished. These results are not alone the climatic conditions to be affccted eastward, but are more far- reaching. ‘When you reflect tnat all the devastat- ing inundations of the Missourt and Mississippi rivers are mainly caused by the melting snows among the eastern slopes of the Rocky mountains, perhaps you will believe with me that if all the money that has been expended on the levee system of the lower Mississipp: haa been spent in building retaining dams to hold back this water from the snow iall, we would have a Mississippi coutrollable without levees and regular showers on the arid plains; and you may also gather what I mean when I'speak of intelligent, comprehensive, interstate action in the premises. But'rest assared that it is only by such means as is here indicated that forest growth on the 'plains can be se- cured, and you can only hope to map out the general plan. It is necessary that such a sympathetic spirit may be created and fostered as will lead men in different parts of the couatry to see and feel that their in- terests are most intimately commingled and dove-tailed together. = For instance, when the farmer of Wisconsin or north- ern Illinois reads of & two or three years' drought in Texas he must be taught to sce that he has a direcy mterest in that fuct, and that 1t closely concerns him. If this farmer is too old to learn then teach his child the fundamental princi- ples of atmospheric law. First tell it what the father already kuows by exper- ience that nearly all the rainfall peces- sary to give him an abundant harvest comes on the vapor-laden air currents from the southward; show him that these air currents carry moisture in direction proportion to the heat they bear; explain to him how these currents traveling noothward freighted with bles- sing for him are liable to be influenced by two very potent causes that effect the weul or woe; that when they pass over the arid regions of Texas their beat is sugmented by radiation from the parched earth, and by this means they take a firmer grip on their moisture, float higher and carry their burdens farther to the north; or, being reinforced by the west- ward wiuds hot and dry from tue plains, their moisture is diffused in that hungry atmosphere and the combined currents on it to indefinite distances to the northeastward. Again show hiin that he cannot have something out of nothing; that the highway robbery plan of takin from the forest, the tield " and the air u! their benefits, giving nothing in exchange is pernicious in every respect; that here, as llgvervwhem clse, “‘‘Honesty is the best volicy."
