Iron AS FcrtllAxcr.
In addition to studying climatic oondi
tions with view to forstelling what kind
of weather may be looked for, Foster, the
celebrated weather prophet, has recently
branched out on the subject of crops. He
calls attention to the fact that, in 1870, a
peasant farmer in England noticed that a
hill of potatoes in his garden grew much
taller and had much mere thrifty and
healthy appearance the whole of the
season than any of its neighbors ON the
same soil, without additional cultivation
or fertilizing. This excited his curiosity
and he investigated. He found an old
rusty iron hoop at the roots of this par
ticular bill. This discovery led to many
experiments with iron as a fertilizer and
Prof. Foster says that it's value as such
has thus been certainly established. Old
hoops, tin cans and other refuse iron may
be used with good results. He adds: II
iron ore, in any of it's forms, is conven-
lent, use it about your trees, garden
plants and common crops. Where fruit
trees are'in falling condition from any
cause this iron fertilizer will usually re.
store health and vigor. 1t will destroy the
weavil, or curculio, aud where fruit is
stung by any of the various destructive
insects free use of iron in the soil
around the trees will act as a preventive
by restoring vigor to the tree. Insects
sting the fruit of sickly trees. This is
the habit of the curcnlio. Diseased fruit
is better adapted to propagating insect
life and if the tree and fruit is made
healthful the insects will not use the fruit
in which to deposit their eggs. Iron fer
tilizer, that is iron in any condition that
will supply the soil with oxide or rust,
will cure or prevent cotton blight and
will destroy many of the worms and in.
scots that prey upon the cotton plant.
No experiment has been tried as to the
boil worm in cotton but it is believed
that no boil worm can exist in cotton
where the soil is fertilized with iron.

ARROYO HONDO GRANT.
Survey OF the Above Named Con
nrmed Grant Ordered by the In
terror Department.

In 1894, Surveyor General Easley issued
Instructions, and the same we're duly ap.
proved by the commissioner of the gen
sral land Office, for the survey of the ar
royo Hondo grant in Taos county as pei
the decree of confirmation of the U. S
court of private land claims.
As no preliminary survey had been
made and the decree merely designated
the grant by boundary calls, the deputy
surveyor found that the conditions on the
ground were such as to render necessary
the issuance of supplemental instructions
These the surveyor general prepared and
submitted, but the commissioner declined
to approve them,
Judge Laughlin, who was the attorney
for the grant owners, subsequently asked
the commissioner to review the case and
approve the supplemental instructions.
This request was positively denied.
The matter was then appealed to the
secretary of the interior, who reversed
the commissioner, and Gen. Easleyis now
in receipt of instructions to proceed with
the survey in accordance with his original
and supplemental instructions. Thus
another land grant controversy is in a
lair way soon to be settled for all time.
