FACTS FOR FARMERS.

The best kind of bedding for stock
AN be provided with leaves They pre-
vent draughts along the floor and are
easily handled. Rake them as soon as
they begin to fall and store them under
shelter for winter use.
DR.. Gnlen Wilson says: "All sheep
men will admit in due time that feed and
not breed gives quality to mutton Nut
ton is little wanted for local consump-
ton. The demand is for lamb. Lambs
and wool occupy the arena, and who
dares say that a 12-pound fleece is not
worth more than q six-pounder?"
Let any farmer who keeps sheep for
the wool they produce estimate its annu-
al value and then compare such value
with that which he derives from mutton
and lamb, so as 10 determine in which
direction the sheep give the largest
profit, and he will not hesitate to in
crease the size of the sheep by improv-
ing with mutton breeds.
The object in pruning grapes is to
get a well-formed vine and large yield
of the best fruit. TNwo-thirds of the
years growth should be cut away. If
not severely pruned more fruit will be
grown than can be matured. We must
remember that grapes grow upon the
new wood only, and this years branches
bear next years fruit Let the vines be
trimmed in the autumn.
When little pigs begin to eat they
sometimes have scours. To prevent this
the food should be cooked until they get
past the danger stage. No sow having
pigs should be given slop that is sour or
filthy. Clean, wholesome food, not too
concentrated, and not too much at a
time, is better than feeding surfeit OF
any and all kinds, that serve no purpose
than to do harm or to be wasted.

ALUMINIUM AND ITS USES.

A recent invention in aluminium al
Toys is Wolframinium, discovered by
William Berg, German contractor OF
aluminium military equipments, who
also invented the victoria alloy.
The production of aluminium has in
creased so enormously in the past dec
ade that the development of working
it has also been great. and we find re-
suits to-day which three years ago were
hardly believed to be possible.
At the Rock Island arsenal few
meat cans have been made of stiffened
aluminium sheets. These weigh but
SIX ounces, while the regulation meat
can of timed iron for army uses weighs
16 ounces. The only fault found with
the aluminium meat can is that il
placed in fire without food or some
such material in it to conduct off the
heat it will melt.
In this country the most promising
alloy is nickel aluminium which. like
the victoria alloy. seems to be remark
ably well adapted for castings. In this
form (castings) it has a tensile strength
of $4,000 to sc. 900 pounds per square inch
with the rigidity of cast iron. It's specific
gravity is 80. while it's remarkable
residence and ductility fit it for use in
many articles of military equipment.
In the German and French armies
the application of aluminium and its
alloys to military purposes has passed
the experimental stage in several i'm
portant articles of equipment. Can
teens. cups, cooking utensils. etc. made
Of aluminium alloys can by means of
stamping and spinning be made en-
Hrely without soldered joints. and how
ever crushed and dented in service can
readily be hammered back into shape.

ore found to be very rich. The Hidden
Treasure has exposed in its lower
workings a body of ore sixteen feet in
thickness, much of which is very high

trict have been shown to be valuable

Neal becoming a large and permanent
producer"
In the past it has been the custom
to haul the product of this district to
Boise for shipment, but now that the
town of Orchard has been established,
this traffic will go there, and as a
stage line has been put on between
Orchard and Neal, a large portion of
the passenger travel into the district
will go by the way of this young but
aspiring town. A stage line will also
run from Orchard to the placer min
ing camp OF Bruneau, on the Snake
river, where there is considerable &C
tivity in placer mining. This camp is
thirty miles south of Orchard, and in
the near future will come to the front
as a wealth producer, and even. now,
in crude way, miners are making
from SO to $11 per day to the man.
The town of Orchard is watered by
the Orchard Irrigation company. The
soil in that locality is strong and fer
tile and the proximity of the town to
the mining camps will afford an ex-
cellent market for it's agricultural pro-
ducts.

IN SOUTHERN UTAH.
Mining Matters Coming to the Front
in the South.

Mining Matters Coming to the Front
in the South.
Late discoveries in southern Utah
are attracting a great deal of atten-
ton just now from mining men. es-
pecially is this the case in Iron county,
where rich gold finds have recently
been made few miles west of Desert
Springs. exclusive mention of which
was made at the time in these col
umns.
Union, in speaking of the new discover
les, says:
A new strike has Just been made by
Spring Valley boys on the Utah and
Nevada line southwest of Desert
springs The mine is mostly in Utah,
and assays have run up into the thou
sands. Some of Panaca's sons have
a six months lease on a fraction of
the main ledge, and expect to pull out
with a neat sum. The ore will be
shipped direct to Salt Lake or there
about. 1t carries about S1,100 gold be-
sides the silver. and is quartz forma-
ton, similar in appearance to that of
the De Lamar mines.
The Iron County Record is also fall
ing into line en- mining matters, and in
us last issue makes mentlOn OF the
mineral resources of southern Utah, as
follows:
Mining matters in this section have
received quite an impetus by the al
legged discovery of high grade gold ore
on the line between Iron county and
Nevada If stories in regard to the
finds are to be credited it promises to
be one of the greatest things in Utah
mining matters. The quartz is said to
run over $1,100 in gold to the ton, and
TO be almost limftless in quantity This.
together with the extensive placer gold
fields recently discovered in Washing
ton county in the neighborhood of
Grape Vine springs, and the copper
claims in Little Pinto canyon and other
places, should furnish Involvement
enough to bring railroad into south

by rail with the outside world our
vast coal and iron deposits will not

ty and southern Utah is a district

ovERRUN BY WHITE IT'S.

Away up on the east side of New York
Mortified man said to his wife at
breakfast yesterday: Where did all the
white rats come from?"
White ratsr' exclaimed the wife.
aghast "Where have you seen any
white rats? Haven't you got over your
merry Yuletide yet?'
White rate with pink eyes" said the
husband.
EMMY. why did you stay at the Grow S
Nest so long the other night-other morn
ing / mean?'
The words were scarcely out Of her
mouth before she Squealed and rushed
from the room. so runs story in the
New York Press.
"Whats the matter?" asked the hus-
band
RATS" said she.
what kind of rats?"
White. with pink eyes"
'They are the rats [ was talking
about" said the husband, land they are
real"
A meager investigation was enough to
show that the whole neighborhood of far
upper New York, east, has been invaded
by rats. Not the common, ordinary, pie
beian. horrid rat, but the aristocratic
white rat. with the eyes that go with his
albino color.
1t came about in this way-now, don't
laugh. this is a true story: A young man
from down town, who is very fond of
pets. took a couple of rats away uptown.
He built beautiful home for them. and
in 2 few months he had, instead of two
rats. white with pink eyes. a colony of
rats, white with pink eyes-and he is a
total abstainer at that. AS long as his
rate woes were restricted to the limita-
tons of his own back yard Charles was
cOntented. But when the rats began to
overrun everything in his house and in
everybody else's he was not so happy.
And now every resident in the neighbor-
hood is crying: Deliver us from the
white rats with pink eyes"

euAEnEY MEANS BUSINESS.
Getting Ready to Draw on the
Wealth of the Wonder Mine.

Getting Ready to Draw on the
Wealth of the Wonder Mine.
AS will be seen elsewhere in these
columns, the Wonder Mining company
filed its articles of incorporation yes
terday, and from now on we may look
for some vigorous work on this proper
ty, which is located in the center of the
ore zone of Mercur
Manager and Superintendent P. J..
QUaeley, who was seen by a Herald re-
porter yesterday, states that he has
ordered a small plant for the mine, con-
sisting of a 80 H. P boiler which will
be placed in position by L. c. Trent &
Co. as soon as possible. The 100-foot
double compartment shaft on the Mary
z. claim has been cleaned out and re-
'tinlbered, and as soon as the new plant
is in place sinking will be pushed as
rapidly as possible.
The south line of the Wonder joins
the Golden Gate mine, and the Wonder
workings are only $50 feet from the
Golden Gate shaft, and as the Wonder
is about on line with the Hecla, it is
expected that the ore will be encoun-
tered at about 300 feet from the surface
on the same dip as the Hecla ledge.
Mr.. Quaeley, who recently went all
through the underground workings
of the Golden Gate mine, says that it
is a most wonderful property, and that
people, as a rune, have no conception of
the marvellous wealth contained in this
property. as the ore values are four
times what it is commonly supposed
they are worth, and four times as large.
In one place in this mine, Mr.. Quaeley
says, there is an upraise of seventy
two feet, which is all in high grade
milling ore.
It is no wonder. then, that the Won
der company feel that it has a mine,
and a big one at that. in the property
on which it's incorporation is based.
