The Western Mining World of
June Goth, published at Butte. says
Reports published in this paper
during the past few weeks concern
ing a sale Of portion of the Ana
conda have been confirmed, and
negotiations are now pending for
another large block Of the stock
which will give the control to
the English purchasers. A meeting
will be held in New York to-day
between Messrs. Daily, Haggan and
Smith, and as result it is antici-
pated that terms will be agreed upon
for a large portion of the DAILY
Haggin stock. The last sale of the
Hearst estate made this week Of
10000 shares realized $3.50 per
share, but it is thought that for
controlling interest $50 per share
will have to be paid.

There is considerable dissatisfac-
ton existing throughout certain
parts of Idaho over the journal OF
the Boise City Mining Exchange.
1t seems that exceptions are taken
to the statements made by that pa
per that the leads are small, pay
chutes short and the ore will not
average $40 per ton in gold. II
these statements were made there is
certainly good cause for complaint.
The mineral deposits of the state
Of Idaho are as large, strong and
rich as in any state in the Union,
and the time is not far distant when
he output of precious metals from
the mines vii! be equal to that of
any of the western states. A state
that has produced over $40, 000,0 900
in gold must certainly have paying
mineral deposits.-Western Mining

FACTS FROM FLORIDA.

Poor Roads the Equivalent of q Tax Of
Ten Dollars Per Acre.
Cultivating ten acres, eight miles
from the station, buy two tons of fer
tiIizer for $40. This quantity makes
eight loads for one horse, and six hours
are required for trip. The time of
myself and horse is worth 60 cents per
load. I make 500 crates of vegetables,
which require II trips to get them to
the station, at a cost of $4,000. On hard
roads 1 could haul my $40 worth of fer.
tilizer in four trips of four hours each,
at a cost of SLIGO. could haul my 500
crates of vegetables in 35 trips of four
hours each, at a cost of $14. On the sand
roads one horse is required II days to
ship my crop, which is longer time
than the shipping season, hence l am
compelled to keep two horses during
the year. or hire from my neighbors
during busy time. The cost of keep
i, g the second horse may be safely esti-
mated at $25. So much of my time is
used in my trips to town that during
three months of the year l am CON-
PEELED to hire an extra hand, which
costs me about S45. The foregoing
items will suffice to show that bad
roads cost on my ten-acre crop S10l.S0,
being tax of over $40 per acre.-Cor.

GARDEN AND ORCHARD.

Cultivation in the orchard is given to
keep out the weeds and make u loose
mulch.
A little trimming ever, year Is far
better than heavy trimming once in
three or four years.
Walnuts, chestnuts. hickory nuts,
peach seeds and all this kind of seeds
should be planted before they get too
dry.
Apples to be profitable must not only
be suited to the locality, but must be
productive, of good size, attractive APP
pearance and good keeper.
In storing sweet potatoes for long
keeping dry earth is the best packing
material. Keep them in warm, even
temperature. Pack none but sound
potatoes, or they will surely rot.
when trees are set out in the fall it
will be advisable 10 draw up small
mound of earth around the stem. This
helps to hold the tree steady in storms,
throws off the surplus water and large
ly prevents injury by field mice.-St
Louis Republic.

SMALL FRUIT CULTURE.
Famous wisconsin Man Asks "WhO Shout
Grow BerriesY,

Famous wisconsin Man Asks "who Should
Grow Berries?'
That is the question asked by M. A.
Thayer, the famous berry raiser of
Sparta, Wis, and by him answered as
follows:
First of all, farmers everywhere, for
family use. Farmers must grow ber-
ries or do without. No one can grow
them so cheaply as he. They may be
produced ready for picking, at two
cents per quart. The farmer saves cost
of picking, packing, boxing, Grating,
freight, express and profits of growers.
He gets them at first cost, fresh from
the vines, and to the extent of his own
family has the best market in the
world-a home market. He cain select
the best land and location on his own
farm, and is sure of a profit with half a
crop.
without the fruit garden. 1t teaches
the lessons of intensified farming, and
results in better tillage, larger crops.
better stock and improved methods in
every way. Good gardens and poor
farms never keep company long.
The growing of berries for family use
is easily done. The growing of ber-
ries largely, and selling them in good
market, requires considerable skill and
q special business tact. Only those
who have good location, good market
and taste for the business should at
tempt it. Many small farmers so stu
ated are making a success by COM
mencing moderately and increasing
acreage from season to season as ex-
perience warrants.
Berries should be grown by owners
OF all village homes, and acreage prop
erty in city and village may be prof
itably used for that purpose.
The market gardener selling his OWL.
products can often make an acre or two
of berries very profitable. They are
suitable companions for their vegetable
friends, and sell we'll together.
The business or professional man, al
most broken with care, may recover
health and strength in the pleasant
walk of horticulture. 1t is rcstful to
both mind and body.
Many women dependent on their own
efforts are securing substantial aid
from their gardens; berries and flowers
thrive best under the gentle touch of
women.
Many a bright boy may receive his
first incentive to business and earn his
first money by growing berries or veg
etables. Give them patch of ground
and encourage them in this work.

WINTER MILLINERY.
Large Hats Are Favored for Street Wear
Only.

For elderly women the shapes are
more becoming than is usually the
case; they are little larger than the
cap style, and cover the entire top Of
the head. They all have strings, which
are crossed at the back of the head and
tied under the chin, made of narrow
velvet ribbon. 1t is considered quite
permissible for women with gray hair
to wear puppies, the greens, and even
reds; and some very pretty bonnets
have the crown of embroidered velvet,
with a soft ruching of plain velvet
around the face to make them more
becoming.
The edict has gone forth that tho
large hat shall no longer be worn in
the theater, and woman who tries to
wear one is made to feel so uncomfort-
able that she very soon takes it off, so
that it is now a well-accepted fact that
large hats are only for street wear.
Worn with walking costumes, they are
very appropriate, and if becoming, ex-
ceedingly so. A great many plumes
are used in trimming them. All black
hats of this description are very much
in favor, sometimes made entirely of
velvet; sometimes the crown of velvet
with brim either of plain or braided
silk, or even with q shirred brim OF
heavy satin; and while all black feath-
ers are considered very smart.
other different colors, and even white,
are very much used. All gray hats are
favorites this season, and one of shaded
velvet made with quite low crown is
trimmed with two long plumes, most
gracefully arranged, one falling over
the brim almost down TO the shoulder.
With the hair arranged Pompadour, as
Is now the fashion, these hats are put
on slightly to one side, and sometimes
have the brim turned up very sharply
at the left. But many have only brim
which IL curved at both sides.-Har

The Afternoon Nap.

The afternoon nap is not harmful
one, as many people think. 1t is a
physiological process, and as such is
perfectly natural. When digestion is in
progress nature arranges that all avail
able blood in the body shall be called to-
ward the digestive organs. This leaves
the blood supply of the brain at a low
ebb, and sleep is thus easily induced.
Brain work at such time is wIong.--

To Prevent weeyl In Beans.

Place the beans in an air-tight vessel,
add little bisulphide of carbon and
cover the vessel for short time. Ben
zine or gasoline is sometimes used for
the same purpose. No light or fire must
be broughtnear these substances,a s they
are very infammable. This treatment
will not injure the beans, either for
soed or table use. The weevils may also
be destroyed by heating the beans to
las degrees F., but this should have
been done as soon as the beans were
gathered, before the insects had a
chance to injure the beans.-Nat ional
