How Deaf Mutes Dance.

Zone thing that surprised me greatly" he
continued, was to see them indulge In
dancing. l had always supposed that IL was

orchestra on the dancing barge, and for q

but they felt II, which was just as effectual.
To be sure of the matter l spoke 10 the
leader of the orchestra, and he assured me
that my surmise was correct, and that when
no was employed by the party 1t was ex-
pressly stipulated that he should bring his
biggest bass drum ana bass viols.
THE deep tones were more vibratory
than the others and the mutes kept excel
lent waltz time by feeling the vibration of

wise we wo+sM have enjoyed the dis
tinction of having deep water har-
Dor. The line, which leaves Nogalas
and makes an angle at that point by
taking more northerly route until it
reaches the Colorado river. should
have kept on a continmous straight
course. which was the intent of the
agreement with Mexleo. 1t was ar
ranged to give Arizona deep water
harbor on the gulf of Mexico by max .
ing the treaty read that the boundary
should be drawn in straight line
from Nogales to point 20 miles be-
low the mouth of the Colorado river.
After the papers were drawn mp and
signed it was observed that the read
ing had been changed to make the
line run to a point 20 miles below the
mouth of the ella river.
Besides losing the harbor of Port
Isabel and 20 miles of deep water
coast, Arizona lost some of the best
LAID in Sonora. 1t was considered in
the days when the treaty was signed
that Arizona soil was not worth cent
quarter of section, and the matter
was dropped without contesting.

IMPROVING WORNOUTSOILS.
How This May Be Done With Comm.
clai Fertilizers and Green Crops.

A MissOurian, in letter to P,arie
FARMER, says that one way to help run
down land SO that profitable crops can

tIiizers. These, it properly applied
VIII often materially increase the
growth and WELD of the crops, but il
is questionable if they add any appre-
cable permanent fertility TO the soil.
ihere is one way, however, by which
the use of t...is class of fertilizers can
oe made an advantage, and that is hy
Increasing the yield OF the crops, a lar
ger amount of feed is secured and this
affords an opportunity Of making
more manure, and the more animal
manure that can be secured, the bet
ter the chance for building up the
soil.
Glover lsOne of the best materials
that can be used to build up the soil,
ana wherever clover can be grown the
land ls not past redemption. But
some soils will not grow clover. 1t ia
so devoid Of vegetable matter that the
clover plant will starve out, and in
this case either of two plans can be
followed! One is to use commercial
Fertilizers, and the other is to seed to
rye and as soon as "A reasonably good
growth Is secured plow under and SOW
Ouckwheat. Ii is not to be expected
that land 80 poor that it will not grow
clover will have sufficient available
plant food tc grow even fair crop of
rye, but the plowing in Of even a
light growth will supply some vegeta-
ble matter and generally sufficient to
make a crop of buckwheat secure a
fair growth.
One advantage in sewing buckwheat
In summer is that it makes a QUICK
growth and it soon shades the soil,
ana shade in summer aids materially
In the process Of nitri6cation. The
bnckwheat can be plowed under early

the latter part Of February or the first
part OF March clover can be sown over

plowed under will afford n sufficient
amount of plant food to grow crop.
Vegetable matter ia necessary in the
soil. and this grwing and plowing
under of green crops is one of the
surest ways Of securing it. Land that
is. not so badly run down but that it
will grow good crops of clover can be
built up with Less cost, as clover can
Do sown with small grain and the
first crop be cut for hay and the Sec
ond be plowed under as fertilizer.
LIN this way the cost of building up
may be greatly reduced.
