Indigo Culture

The Department of Agriculture is
of the opinion that indigo cultivation
at this time would be remarkably pro-
ftable, as many improved methods of
preparing it for market have been dis
covered, which materially lessons the
cost and tedium of the operation.
The following directions for the
cultivation and preparation of the in
digo will prove of interest to those
who wish to give the indu stry trial.
The plant requires moderately rich
soil, the seed being sown early in the
spring, sometimes broadcast, but pre-
ferabIy in shallow drills about sixteen
inches apart, so that weeds can be re-
moved or kept down by hoeing. The
plants will be ready to cut in about
three months after sowing the Seeds
They are cut just before coming into
the flower, and if condition of growth
is favorable second crop may b. cut
in about two months afterwards.
The coloring matter does not exist as
indigo in the plant, but when the
plant is stepped in water and subjected
to certain processes the blue color is
obtained. AS soon as the plants are
cut they are thrown into vats of water,
where they are allowed to remain
until sufficiently macerated. The IL
Iuid is then drawn into another vat,
where it is subjected to agitation by
beating with rods for several hours, or
until the water changes from a green
ish to deep purple color 1t is then
to settle. The water gra-
dually clears and the indigo sediment
is found on the bottom of the vat. 1t |
is then boiled, strained through bags,
and otherwise treated until prepared
for commerce.

Commissioner Stockslager, general
land officer, Washington, D. c., has
rendered an important decision, in
the Tumacacori and Calabazas private
land claims in Arizona. He holds
there is no authority for the reserva-
ton of $4,000 acres of land included
within the preliminary surveys of said
claim, for two ielsens: (lst) That the
land being within "Gadsden purchase"
of 1853 is not operated upon by the
act of July 22d, 1858. and of the
treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo of lS48.
I'd That preliminary survey" of pri-
Vate claim does not of itself operate as
withdrawal of the surveyed lands
from settlement and entry, even in
cases covered by said act of 1854, the
legal withdrawal being only of lands
actually claimed or which shall be
legally claimed. Under this holding
nearly 100000 acres of land in New
Mexico and Arizona is in state of
unlawful reservation from settlement,
by reason of excessive surveys mad,
for the benefit Of grant claimants,
irrespective of the question as to the
validity or invalidity of the claims
themselves. Nearly all private claims
in Arizona are within the "Gadsden
purchase"

A Valuable Grass

The kidney vetch is, perhaps, the
best specimen of a drought resisting
plant which we know. 1t will prosper
on soil where everything else either
totally fails or grows only in an inhn-
itesimal and dwarfed state. During
the most parching weather it contin-
ues to yield large quantity of green
succulent food when other plants are
scorched and dried up; it is easy Of
cultivation; it is, so far as | have seen,
careless of condition of land; it can be
sown either alone or in admixturt
with other grasses; it produces food
eminently suited for stock; it makes
the best of silage; it can be sown
either in spring or autumn; and, if
properly treated, it lasts in the land
for long period of years l have
found its great value on light sand,
resting on chalk. | am not disposed
to think that the nature of the sub
soil determines the home Of the vet, h,
but | know it will not succeed on wet
land. Heat and drought it adores;
and in the fact that where every other
grass will die for want of moisture it
Will flourish and thrive, we have its
great merit. BY the aid of this plant,
light sands, otherwise worthless to
The owner or farmer, may be convert
ed into profitable land. The value of
kidney vetch on land such as | farm

q tainted with the real facts. -Agri-

Bare spaces under trees, where

plants. Places partly shaded by
trees, where sun-loving plants
(placed there in ignorance) do not
flower, and of which one often hears

flower, only because they have put
the wrong ones-such places, plant

HARQuA HALA.

lows:
Yesterday l spent the day at the
workings as the guest of Messrs. Wat
ton, Stein and Sullivan, who are most
courteous in their entertainment of
their numerous visitors, and as the
greater rart of the time was spent on
the dump and ia the shaft, am fully
predared to lay before your readers
the exact status of the mine up to
date.
The shaft is now at depth of 40
feet and is about 7 feet square. 1t
is all In a crumbling iron stained ore,
soft and easily mined-in fact the
greater part of the work is mere pick
and shovel work. The dump now con-
tains at least 100 tons and there is no
waste dump as all the ore from every
part of the shaft seems to be equally
rich in free 60 d 1t was estimated
by experts who visited it and took
horn assays from every part of the
shaft and dump and also tested "foat"
from all over the hill that the entire
ore body will mill $3.50 per ton, and
this they put at the very lowest esti-
mate.
Until lately it was thy intention of
the owners to sink the shaft fifty feet
in depth and then cross cut the ore
body and commence stopping, where
four men could get out ore enough to
keep the ten-stamp quartz mill at
Harrisburg running steadily. This
plan, however, may be changed as the
result of visit from two experts,
who are said to represent the wealthy
owners of the celebrated "Ontario'
mine in Utah. These gentlemen al
lowed themselves to show considera-
BILE enthusiasm at the wonderful
wealth disclosed i'll a two days careful
examination, and offered, 1T is said,
100000 cash for the nine claims that
comprise the Bonanza group. The
partners held pow-wow and finally
allowed the would-be purchaser fifteen
days in which to raise the money, and
every one here is now agog with ex-
pectation, while speculation is rife as
to whether it will be sale or not.
At either end the extensions are
claimed by the Quinn brothers, who
are taking out rich ore that shows
plenty of free gold, Close by are the
group of eleven claims belonging to
Cochrane and Davis, Thomas Brown,
J. E. Moorish and Charlie Woodward,
of Vulture, also being interested with
them.
These are among the most promis-
ing ore bodies in the vicinity, averag-
ing as they do, from four to ten feet
in width, all of them assaylng splen-
didly and five of them carrying free
gold. These eleven claims are evil
IDENTIFY enough in themselves to make
name for the new district. All of
them are being assiduously worked
with cross cuts and inclines and the
result Is most encouraging to the
owners.
Further up the same quartzite dyke
that divides the formation in a north
easterly direction toward the Vulture
mine, is a group of three remarkably
fine claims belonging to Mr.. w. @.
Whorf, who represents an Oakland
syndicate. The ledge on which he
made the discovery is a regular ore
body of crumbling iron between per-
manent walls and is two and a half
feet in width, carrying free gold and
a heavy yellow carbonate of lead.
