through another orchard, and noticing
the '1ong, slim lateral branches" grow
ing out from every tree, / asked the
owner, "Won't you head that tree in 2"
''Not bit OF it," he replied. "Why,
sir, cutting off those limbs is just like
cutting off $40 gold pieces" The orchards
were both young then. Two years later
visited these same orchards, when
the trees were loaded with ripening
fruit. In looking down through the
avenue of fruit trees on Mr.. Siabler's
model orchard, the trees seemed solid
mass of beautiful fruit, with no props or
broken limbs. next visited the orchard
OF the snti-pruner and the eight was
sad one. The limbs of every tree we're
bent down to the ground; props were
everywhere to be seen. The whole CEN

Several months ago, sayssthe Bakers
field Californian, the Bright Star Mining
company. which has several thousand
tons OF tsilings on it's dumps, shipped a
carload to Denver, that 1t might be
treated upon working scale by Nc
Arthur's cyanide process.
The returns were satisfactory, where
upon the company erected teaching
plant and proceeded to business. An
attaohe Of the company was taught the
process in Denver and it WAS presumed
that everything would be satisfactory.
When fairly in operation assays of the
tailings after teaching invariably showed
that large percentage OF the gold had
been dissolved, which was duly precip-
itated when passed through zinc shaw
ings, but getting the gold out of the zinc
was as unsatisfactory as Rudyard Kip
lipg's other story 1t did not msterialize.

We were shown, says the Ferris Era,
some rock from the Lucky Boy mine at
Msnifee which fairly glitters with gold.
The mine is owned by Walker brothers,
who at depth of 80 feet have struck a
rich body of ore. Recently great flow
of water was struck and work was sus-
pended, but pump has been put in.
the water kept under control. and de-
velopment is now progressing very
rapidly.

1t is believed that with practice the
percentage remaining in the tailings
after leaching may be materially re-
duceds and it is likely that the unac-
counted loss OF z per cent largely con-
sists of minute particles caught in the
sieves and interstices in watts and sluiees.
in which event it will gradually get into
bullion and eventually into pockets
where it rightfully belongs.
But the fact remains that by means Of
this process the owners of the Bright
Star mine are able to get from tailings
sssaying $5.77 a. net profit Of 1856 per
ton, or over AZ per cent OF their value,
when without the Macarthur treatment
nothing could possibly be realized.
The method practiced is as follows !:
There are two teaching tanks, one 10
and one 10 feet in diameter, IL inches
deep, with capacity of six tons OF tail
ings in "A hours. The tailings are
shovelsd into these watts and for Is hours
immersed in solution containing one
quarter of one per cent Of cyanide of
potassium. Then still weaker solution
is added and finally the charge ia
thoroughly washed with clear water,
An iron vacuum pan is used to- hasten
the percolation.
The solution ia drawn from storage
tanks 10x8 and 8x8, and after percoia-
ton runs through precipitate boxes.
These are long troughs divided into six
teen compartments, which have screen
bottoms and are filed with zinc shay
ings. The liquid enters the first one at
the bottom and passes likewise into the
next and so on.
The shavings are turned out upon
mandrel and the gold precipitates upon
them in the shape OF dark brown pow
der. When collected the mixed gold
precipitate and fine particles of unde-
composed zinc flores are placed In
bath Of diluted sulphuric acid, which
dissolves the zinc and leaves the bullion
in pure state, which, when melted into
bar, is about $50 fine in gold and 25O
in silver.
Gold extracted in this manner is found
to be perfectly malleable and not in the
least brittle.
The Bright Star company is so well
satisfied with these working results that
g plant cable of treating 80 tons daily is
to be Immediately constructed.

ProteotIon From Frost.

Protection From Frost
Many orchardiste who have studied
carefully into the matter assert that fruit
blossoms and the fruit itself have often
been protected from injury by frost from
the fact that row Of tall trees stood
along the east side of the orchard and
kept away early morning sun. 1t has
been proven repeatedly in Florida, where
there is much standing timber, that
groves having timber belt on the east
side almost invariably come out OF cold
wave in much better condition than
those open wholly to the east, thus re-
ceiving the fret rays of the sun. To
keep the fruit in shadow until it has
gradually thawed is great advantage
II IL has been actually frozen,
and the same relative sdvant-
age ia obtained ii it has been
merely "chilled" by unusual cold. 1t
is we'll known that q barrel of apples
may be allowed to freeze az solid as bill
lizard balls in an outbuilding, and if not
disturbed, but allowed to remain and
thsw gradually, the fruit will not appear
greatly damaged but will keep in good
condition O long time. Experience OF
some orange growers at Riverside and
other places in Southern California q
year ago, corroborstes the view here
expressed that the fruit which Is ex-
posed to the early sun after being FROST
ed, because of its position on the eastern
half OF the tree receives most damage.
If we accept this as general fact it
is clear that much of the danger from
cold weather may be obviated by means
OF rows of tall trees. Eucalyptus or
pUHBlDIy tue 5aSCsFu pAf5 OF the south
line OF the orchard. BY planting thickly
and allowing the trees to grow without
cutting back, sach row OF eucalyptus
would cast shadow over q small or
chard for some time after sunrise
probably long enough to secure the good
effects sought for in this way.
We think, therefore, that it may be
worth the attention of orchardists, e.
peeially those growing citrus fruits, to
plant sun breaks as well as wind breaks
about their orchards. Grower.

Where the Blame Lies,

The Willmar Argus censures the late
legislature severely for passing the
capitol bill and defeating the Mark
ham railroad land tax measure. It
accuses the entire body of being con-
trolled by the cities of St. Paul and
Minneapolis and this was the reason
the Markham bill was defeated. This
is true so far as the senate was con-
cerned but the house passed the bill
with but one dissenting vote and it
should have credit for its action upon
this important bill. The senate spent
most of it's time in discussing the silver
question and other matters that were
beyond it's scope of action and only got
down to solid work when there was a
measure of Importance to the people to
defeat. Then they worked like beav-
ers till the measure was dead. The
house showed its disposition to be
mean when it refused to reapportion
the State, but it cannot be said that it
was not an Industrious body or that it
was controlled by the cities and cor
porations. The senate was body and
breeches in the hands Of corporations
and the senators seemed to glory in
going contrary to the expressed wishes
of their constituents. Todd County

To the Editor of the Times:
MANKATO, Mimi, May 3.-The eff
fort of The Times to rid the Democrats
of this State Of all taints of bossism is
looked upon as the proper thing and a
move in the right direction. The
Times does not know, of course, of it's
own knowledge of certain attempts at
bribery frequently made in connection
with legislation, and particularly in
connection with the late senatorial
election, when Michael Doran was
chief dispenser of the Doodle used to
corrupt members of the legislature,
and out of which a great deal of I'M
pleasantness has grown between
Michael and some strai ghtforward, up
right Democrats, who were dragged
into the outrageous deal by such men
as they thought were doing something
for the good of the party, but turned
out to be speculation on their own &C.
count. The suit of a prominent, re-
spected citizen, an active leading Demo-
GRAFT against P. H. Kelly has grown out
OF the nefarious and corrupt deeds in
that connection. Some self-constituted
leaders will likely yet be defendants to
other suits in which the State of Min
nesota will be the plaintiff. Indict-
ments are likely to follow, and if it is
not cardinal principle of Democracy
to weed out and ex-communicate from
its membership all political boodlers
and mercenaries, what is then the
foundation upon which we stand? What
great and good mission, greater and
better than this can we perform? The
question Of nationality or religion does
not enter into this matter with us
here and as Irish American Democrats
we endorse the sentiment of The Times
in this religious race issue. Yours for

The Mean Man.

Sometimes I wonder, says Bob Bur-
dette, what a mean man thinks about
when he goes to bed. When he turns
out the light and lies down alone he is
then compelled to be honest with him
self. Not a bright thought, not a
generous impulse, not a word of bless
ing, not a grateful look comes back to
him; not penny dropped into the palm
OF poverty, nor the balm of a loving
word dropped into an aching heart;
no sunbeam of encouragement cast
upon struggling life, no strong right
hand OF fellowship reached out to help
some fallen man to his feet! When
none of these things come to him as
the ''God bless you'' of the departed
day, how he must hate himself; how
he must try to roll away from himself
and sleep on the other side of the bed,
when the only victory he can think of
is some mean victory, in which he has
wronged neighb Dor. No wonder he
always sneers when he tries to smile.
How pure and good all the rest of the
world must look to him, and how care
less and dreary must his own path ap-
pear. Why, even one isolated act of
meanness is enough to scatter cracker
crumbs in the bed Of the average man,
and what must be the feelings of man
whose whole life is given up to mean
acts.

Frank NJ. Nye's first introduction to
Judge Young happened in a curious
way. He had been retained as asso-
clate counsel in a criminal case, and
appeared with his colleague in Judge
Y oung's court. He had never met the
Judge but he placed himself behind his
brother attorney and occasionally
whispered suggestion to him.
Finally a question arose which pro-
voked considerable discussion and at
the proper time Mr.. Nye got up to
give his views on the point at issue.
Judge Young, not understanding his
connection with the case, said sharply:
