WORK FOR JUNE.

Keep the narroW-toOthed cultiVatorS
going a good part of the time. Your
trees and plants will thereby make a
much larger growth, and some irriga-
ton will be saved, writes D. Edison
Smith in the Rural Californian. Land
which has not been cultivated with
fine toothed cultivators or harrows al
ready needs irrigating, while the soil
around the roots of the trees and plants
in the fields that have been properly
cultivated, with proper tools is still
moist. Another important advantage
of narrow teeth is that no hard pan"
ever forms under them, while with the
plow and usual cultivator teeth hard
crust forms on many of our soils just
below where the teeth or plow runs,
thus preventing proper circulation of
moisture and the ready access Of root
let's TO all parts of the soil. But this
hard pan" never forms under narrow
teeth. Nor will it under small. prop
erly constructed cultivator teeth. In
fact a rightly made cultivator will
break up this ''hard pan" formed by
the plow or common cultivator teeth.
1 think the time is coming when the
pillow will give place to a much better
implement. We now have both one and
two horse cultivators with many mar
row teeth that stir the soil of an or
chard or garden to perfection. Keep
close watch of your soil, and do not
let your plants become in the least
thirsty. By digging ten inches below
the surface with a shovel you can
a. ci1xr fol 10, G.
long as the soil will readily ball, or
stick together easily by COMPRISING
with the hand, it is sufficiently moist.
1t is not too late to plant corn, beans,
melons and beets. The golden Tank
ard beet is preferable for stock. in my
opinion. Unless your surface soil is
very sandy it will pay to spend good
deal of time in thoroughly pulverizing
it TO a good depth before sowig any of
vate, harrow and smooth several times
in fact, until the surface soil is like
an ash heap.
Suckers should be removed from all
trees. If your trees are rampant grow
ers, try the plan of clipping a part of
them back as the growth forms, in
stead of waiting till next winter, and
then making the whole back cut at
once. Then note which method produc-
eS the best results.
1t pays big to thin fruit where the
trees are full. Large, nice fruit always
sells a a fair price, while small fruit
can hardly be given away. The best
way to thin is to go around the tree
with step ladder. and thin intelli-
gently by hand picking.

A HINT TO FARMERS.

Various methods of retaining or utiliZ-
ing all1ali lands have been suggested and
here is another, the result of a little ex-
pertinent by Mr.. Lebrasse, of Goshen. He
has about ten acres OF unproductive alkaIi
land on which he decided 10 plant rye.
He sowed one and half sacks of seed on
four acres. Il was put in late and the
same day wheat was sown on the same
piece of land. The wheat is dead but the
rye IS tall with heads from six to nine
inches long, and it is estimated that the
little tract will produce one and a half
tons of hay to the acre, or ten sacks of
seed per acre if allowed to mature. Here
is a hint that is worth remembering, says
the Visalia Delta Rye sells for the same
price at present as wheat, and if alkali
land can be made to grow this grain as
well as ordinary land producing wheat, 4
large addition can be made annually to
Tulare county's grain yield. Perhaps a
few years cropping with rye might make
otherwise unprofitab bic land suitable for
growing other grain crops.

| Business in the probate court yester-
day was quite brisk, several important
estates being passed upon. In the mat
ter of the estate of Stephen "A. Estes,
on petition of Samuel B. Yves ;erfield,

traitor, the court appointed as apprais-
ers the following gentlemen: C. P.
Madsen, ]. E. Gallagher and R. L.
Burton, jr.
These gentlemen will enter upon
their duties at once and will COM
plete the work for which they have
been selected as soon as possible. J. is
the intention of the present administra-
tor to get the estate in condition as
quickly as the work can be performed.
1t is said the matters in connection
with its affairs are in somewhat
tangled condition The copper plant
stock, which forms a part of the as
sets, will be appraised at something
like its real value and a report made
concerning 1t.
The administrator of the estate of
John H Rumel, jr., yesterday filed a
return of a sale of personal property
of the estate amounting to $37S.50,
which will be heard on June H.

administration of the estate of Charles
e. sherwood, by the appointment of
Julia A Sherwood as administrative
with bonds in the sum of $3.50. She
qualified at once, with Thomas Hull
and Eli A. POLAND as sureties An or
der was made appointing Thomas E.
Jeremy John Vincent and A. Hodges
as appraisers.
An order was made appointing John
D. Porter as administrator of the es-
tate OF Frank n. Porter, with bonds in
the sum of $4,000.
The final account of Peter C. Cow
ling, administrator of the estate Of
Janette A. Cowling. was filed. There is
a balance on hand of s4.5S3 and the
only heirs are the administrator and
two minor children. An APPLICATION was
made for a decree of distribution. The

CnlcaSo, May 81.
CATTLE-The receipts this week will
run about $500 head over last week and
will about equal the receipts of the corre-
Spending week last year. The arrivals
today were about 1850 head and as trade
was again extremely slow, prices failed
TO show the slightest improvement
Choice grades very scarce, while native
beef steers sold at S.S0GD5.75. a. few sold
higher than 500. Texas receipts numbered
200 head, and trade dragged at declining
prices.
HOG+Including the 5000 hogs left over
from yesterday, the supply today reached
total Of $1,000 head. At a decline of so
10 cents per 100 pounds, trade was active
on local and shipping account and most
OF the supply left first hands at an early
hour, spectators obtaining possession of
some of the best lots Heavy hogs sold
at 440Q4S0; light, 4.20G14.60; mixed, 4.25Q
4.65, and pigs. 3.50q4.20
SHEEP-Ihe receipts continue very lib
eral and as the demand does not show a
corresponding increase, prices are ruling

week ago. Supplies consist more largely
of common to fair descriptions than here

New York, May 31.-R. G. Dun & Co. S
weekly review Of trade will say:
More far-reaching than any other
change during the past week. really war
ranted by facts, is the continued rise in
prices of wheat and cotton. Rea' scar
city of either would affect all bN54neSS.
Happily, there is still room to hope that
accounts of injury are greatly eXagger-
ated, although there has been some evil
dence during the week that both the
great crops have suffered more than at
first appeared. Other changes are almost
all favorable and some highly encourag-
ing labor troubles are clearly less threat
ening.
Monetary conditions are satisfactory
and the substantial increase in the COM
mercial demand is a good sign. Tx
changes through the clearing houses
have been greatly inflated by speculation,

REMEDY FOR HARD TINES.

The immediate remedy for hard times,
writes Lowell White in the Bakersfield
Californian. is diversity of crops, less at
tention TO specialties, more to productions
that will supply the family or find a local
market. There is more profit to the pro-
duCer in two dozen eggs or in a spring
IS wanted is less wheat less wool, more
butter and cheese, more eggs and chick
ems and more hogs. Utah should supply
its own people with everything needed in
the way of farm products, and yet mil
lions of dollars are taken annually from
the territory in payment for hams. bacon.

New York, May Sl.-BradStreet tomor-

The observance of Memorial day SER
vices ser=sts to check the volume of gen
eral trade this week, but there has been
q further shrinkage in the amount of
business transacted due not altogether TO
founded fears of serious damage to the
grain crops.
& Reports from manufacturing industries
at IS cities east of the Rocky Mountains
show that more than 227 impoT taDt manu-
featuring concerns started up between
April l q I'D a week ago, by reason Of
which $500 employees have secured
work. But the additional and significant
fact is found in the report that wages of
no fewer than lis. 600 industrial employees
have been advanced within the period, an
average of 10 per cent. of whom six
seventies received the advance without
striking.
There are some gains at the south with
-i,rgoroyed agricultural prospects in Ten

LITTLE beginnings.

If you have quarter section won would
like to irrigate, says a writer in the Irri-
| CATION Age, and the water supply is nor
all in sight, don't wait for somebody or
some company TO undertake furnishing
you water for the whole $50 acres Get
what water you can and try an acre-or
half an acre. There are 'steen thousand
iaen living on land that ought to be frri-
gated TO produce the best results and who
wish TO begin, but are waiting and have
waited for years for the appearance Of
some capitalistic company which shall
make rivers of water flow where little or
none was ever seen before. Don't wait OIL
the big companies and great canals of
water. Sink a well, or dam {. draw, or
lmpound the waters of a spring, or get a
small supply of water from some source
and be rlcfi-in experience, at least-and
know what you want to do and how to do
it. and what water supply is worth by
the time the big company arrives on the
ground.
Furthermore. the little farm has proven
and viii prove the cornerstone-and also
the basement. sidewalks and mansard
roof-of irrigation There will be men
who can successfully conduct a bo-
:lanza farm under irrigatio just as there
are Marshall Fields in trade, Jay Goulds
in railroad assimilation and PulitZers T.,
the newspaper business; but their num-
bers viii be about in like proportion to
the mass of irrigation farmers as are the
IllieilOHlIloliy successful TO the rank and
tile in other industries and caliings. The
mass of those who succeed to their own
satisfaction and to the good of the COM
nunity in irrigation farming will be those
VINO do thorough work upon a small tract.
1t is a sort of situation where
A little farm well titled
must be the rule if success is to follow
effort.
1t is conceded that one of the strongest
proofs of the adnlinistra tive ability of
Brigham Young Is the fact that he limit
ed the farm unit, under Irrigation. TO
twenty acres. He placed the limit high
and the results of fifty years practical
working have abundantly proven the wis
dom of his regulations in this regard II
would be well if people would accustom
themselves to contemplating Irrigation
farming ON such basis-the basis of the
Quantity of land a man can handle for
himself.
Little beginnings, small areas intensely
cultivated, small investments OF cash I'M
til experience justifies branching out bv
safe degrees-these are some of the small
things which ought to be considered al
their true value in tie work of making
homes by the help of irrigation They
will aid very greatly III achieving success.
