Wheat Harvesting In California.
bu5 the last two years have Wit
messed another development OF ma
chllnery IN California wheat culture.
Steam power has been successfully
applied, and a very great reduction in
cost has been made In the summer

Ihe largest OF them cut a swath OF 40
feet, and harvested the crop at cost

cents per acre, as against Sits Of the
old system. The same engine is ex-
pected to pillow, carrying IL or 20, or
even 40 plows, and, since it is a road
engine, it will haul the crop to
the nearest station or landing
at less expense than if hauled with
horses. The price OF such an engine,
with the harvester and thresher. IS
from $4,000 to $4,000 at present,
but this cost, it is said, will soon bere-
duced. From the talk among wheat
growers, two or three years will wit
ness the introduction OF steam on the
large ranches. The engines are STRAW
burners" or, when blowing wood can
be used. Coal IS very high on the
Pacific coast, and therefore coal burn
ing engines will never be profitable
here. | have asked wheat raisers what
they thought would be the cost OF
blowing, narrowing, seeding, harvest
ing and delivering at the station, If
these steam engines do what is ex-
pected. They answer: "About 81 an
acre, on the easily farmed lands, and
not more than So anywhere" This,
then. is the way that California
can successfully meet the competition

Keeping Butter.


The best method for keeping butter
for any length of time is to store it in
barrels, under brine in the granulated
form. New, clean whisky or pork
barrels should be used, filled to within
Is inches of the top with brine strong
enough to float an egg, and the butter
then put in, and covered so as to keep
it at least four inches beneath the sur
face of the brine. Butter packed in
this way has kept sweet for 18
months or more. Under our present
conditions OF manufacturing and mar
ket it, Of course, rarely occurs that
there is any need OF keeping butter for
such q time, but in putting up butter
for export, especially for shipment to
countries south of us, this or a similar
plan might be adopted for keeping it
in good condition. We have a good
chance just now for building a trade
with our southern neighbors, and it
would pay to take extra pains to pro-
cure it by getting our butter to them
in better shape than any other that
they receive. $.

Comparative Yields Of Corn.

A correspondent of the National
Stockman says that in testing some
20 varieties of corn in which the prep
aration of soil, planting and cultivat-
ing were the same as we'll as the
character of the soil, he found the
yield varied from So to 83 bushels
per. acre, Pride of the North, a small
early variety with a,stalk of 10 feet
and lipening July Is, and the Mas
todon, a large variety with a stalk Of
Ii feet and ripening the first week in
August, representing the extremes.
The Iowa King, from E. S. Teagar-
den, Boone, Iowa, and a speckled
corn from G. T. Petit, Oneida, Kan
sas, both contributors to your COL
umns, ranked very high as heavy
choppers and in the desirable quail
ties of medium corn. The yield and
adaptability of different varities of
corn in any section are questions
OF close attention and experiment..
Every farmer should at least set
aside an acre OF ground that is uni
form as to all necessary points in
corn. culture and then plant the same
number OF rows to half dozen varie.
ties OF corn, giving them equal and
impartial care. A half pound or
pound of seed each, will not be very
expensive. Part OF it may easily be
secured by exchanging with farmers
| in other sections. The experiment
will be a grand object lesson and in
many ways full Of instruction. Look
about tor seed now and be prepared
for it next spring

BIG CUT TO DENVER,

The Santa Fe Reduces tn Knight Templar
Rate to S12 for the Round Trip From
Chicago-Competitor Come Down With
Nry Faces
The Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe road
surprised the railroad world yesterday by
slashing the round trip Knight Templar
rate between Chicago and Denver from $32
to S12 The local agent of the line
expects to see the fare down to
SIS this afternoon. An old-tashioned
rate war, far reaching in its effects, has
been started, and for the next two months
dirt cheap ride to Denver can be had. This
cut will make the full rate from Pittsburg
S24 for the round trip, and If the Pittsburg
and Western and the Lake Erie claim their
differentials the fare will be $23 30. The
local commanderies have already contracted
at the old rates, but all contracts are now
declared of.
The Santa Fe road claims that the other
lines have not lived up to their agreement.
Tney discovered that more than year ago
the Chicago and Alton, during the boycott,
jumped in and chartered 136 Pullman cars
for this occasion, and offered the Knights
very low rate. When the Burlington and
Rock Island caught on later they
offered inducements to get their share of
the business The Santa Fe states that the
other roads have practically reduced the
rate to S12 90 from Chicago, and this is why
they announce the cut The tickets will be
on sale up to August z, and will be good
until October 81.
S. C. Milbourne, of the Union Pacific
was dlsgusted at the turn of affairs. He
said it was a case of sour grapes. The Santa
Fe failed to get the business, and rather
than see its competitors make any money
the managers cut the rate. Fred Tristman,
Central Passenger Agent for the Wabash,
wished that he controlled 1000 Pullman
cars. He thought the crowd to Denver
would be so large that it Will be impossible
for half the people to get sleeping accom-
modations. The rush will undoubtedly be
immense.
1t appears that the Santa Fe has con-
tract with Fred Harvey to feed the pas
sengers of the road at his eating houses
along the line in Kansas, and in return the
road agrees not to run dining cars in the
State. He now has a suit pending for
100000 damages against the company for
breach of contract. The railroad offered Har-
vey IS cents per capita if he would allow
them to put on diners for the knights, but
he refused. Then the competing agents
claim that the Santa Fe decided to knock
the profit skyward for the other fellows
the dear public is not kicking,
and will take advantage of the low rates.

THE MISSION MASSACRE,
Facts Which Seem to Prove That It Has Not
Been Much Exaggerated.

Facts Which Seem to Prove That It has Not
Been Much Exaggerated.
WALLACE, IDAHO, July 22-Rumors
are still current of startling discoveries in
connection with the Mission affair, wherein
it was reported that many men were shot,
others wounded, some robbed and their
bodies disposed of in such way that no
clew either to the perpetrators of the out
rage or to the disposition of the bodies has
ever been found. On the part of some it
has been persistently denied that anyone
was killed at Fourth of July canyon.
Others are positive that the horrors have
not been halt told.
This much is true beyond doubt, that on
Tuesday evening, after carload ofnon-union
men had passed through Wardner and had
gone to Mission, nine men, members of the
Miners Union, left Wallace on hand car
TO follow them; that at Wardner they
changed the hand car for a fiat car, and,
taking more men with them, pushed on to
Mission; that suddenly the sound of many
guns firing filled the air, and the non-union
men fed precipitately; that one man, Alb
bott, who is now here in the hospital, Was
shot; that Abbott heard pursuers say,
Lets kill them and throw their bodies in
the river" and that quite number of men
are missing vet. The authorities are max
ing an investigation. 1t is reliably re-
ported that the authorities have full details
and proof of the crime committed there.
Ashes supposed to be of human bodies are
undergoing chemical examination. It is
almost certain that dark and bloody deeds
will be brought to light. The perpetrators
are now in the stockade there. The officers
are reticent

FREDA'S INFATUATI0N.
Her Brother r.in-Law Tells How Her
Elopement Was Frustrated.
ALICE MITCHELL'S BOYISH WAYS
Described on the Stand BY Mrs vollmer, .
Sister of Hiss Ward.
A CIGAR BOX FULL OF BILLET DOUX

MEMPHIS, June 22-In the Alice Mitch
ell trial this morning the first witness called
was Miss Addie Mitchell. She seemed to
feel her sisters position very keenly. Her
testimony was, in the main, purely cumu-
lative of that offered previously as to Alice's
dispositions: Penchant for boyish sports,
headaches, nose bleedings and her demeanor
at the time of and since the tragedy. The cigar
box which contained Alice's letters and
love tokens, was introduced and identified
by witness She knew of the intimacy be-
tween Alice and Freda Ward and had read
the letters from Mrs Volmar, Freda's sis
ter, to her mother, breaking off the two
girls friendship.
James johnson, brother of Lille, testi-
fed that he had known Alice for two years,
and, as far as he could judge, she had al
ways displayed a most decided aversion to
the society of gentlemen.
The testimony of William Vollmar,
brother-in-law of the victim, was next
called for by the defense. and proved the
most sensational of the day. He said that
up to the time of his moving to Gold Dust,
Ark, he had never suspected anything
gushing in the friendship Of the two girls,
and considered it the friendship usual be-
tween girls. Coming to the day of the pro-
posed elopement, which was planned for
and was to be consumated while Alice and
Lille johnson were visiting the Misses
Ward last summer, he said that Freda's ac-
tions denoted something unusual, she in
sisted upon sleeping in different room
from that usually occupied by her, and on
leaving the window open. He kept watch
outside, expecting man to show up.
Just before the boat whistled he entered
the room suddenly. He heard Freda push
her valise under the bed. She was dressed,
but as he entered the room she jumped into
bed, pulled the sheet over her and professed
Indignation at the intrusion. Witness was
pretty mad. He called his wife and de-
manded of Freda what this all meant. She
confessed that she was going to run off
with Alice. They were to marry, and
Alice was to work to support her.
Witness, at the time he intercepted the
letters, was not aware of any infatuation
between the girls He intercepted them
because he had come to the conclusion that
Alice was not fit companion for her. On
the discovery of the plan of elopement, he
promised Freda that night that he would
never mention the matter to her again. He
was ashamed of it and of her wanting to
leave good home, and said if she would
not refer to the matter again he would keep
it dead secret. Witness saw nothing to
lead him to believe Alice mentally un-
sound,

EDWARD GALLAGHER WILL DIE

His Skull Was Fractured and He Was
Otherwise Injured.
Edward Gallagher, the Southside news
boy struck by a Birmingham car on Carson
street, Wednesday evening, is lying at the
Southside Hospital in a precarious condi-
tion. 1t is now thought that he cannot re-
cover, and last night his death was ex-
pected at any time. At first his injuries
we're not supposed to be serious, but upon
making a closer examination yesterday
morning it was found that his injuries were
of such a nature as to render his recovery
impossible. Beside fracture of the skull,
a blood vessel in the brain was found to
have been burst This so affected him as to
reduce him to a comatose state His friends
had been notified of his condition and were
at his bedside last night awaiting the end.
