IN THE CANYON.
Many Men Engaged Getting Wood
and Lumber.

Logan Nation: There is one mill yet
at work in Logan canyon, that of Mr.
Hans Hansen, at the old Temple mill
site. Six or more men have been at
work constantly, thus far through the
winter. Up to q few days ago the
Crowther mill in Blind canyon had
been at work, and the Montrose mill in
Card hollow is soon to start up.
These mills are, of course, running
generally on custom work. That is TO
say, residents of the county go to the
canyons cut the logs, and have them
sawed for private use. In this way
many farmers have been able TO secure
lumber for barns, fences. etc, and the
result has been of benefit to them
selves and the millmen. There is but
six inches of snow in the Hansen mill
yard and below the Forks there is not
enough snow for eighing-somethin
unknown before at this time of the
year. The consequence is that great
quantities of lumber and wood are be-
ing piled UP at the Forks, awaiting
heavy fail of snow, as it is much
easier to haul by sleigh than by wagon.
Fully 100 men are at present en-
ployed in the canyons getting out
wood, posts, etc.

mill, states that some hardship has

TAYLOR IS Bid.
Addresses an Extraordinary Letter
to the Queen Regent of Spain.

to the Queen Regent of Spain.
New York, jan. 1.-THE Journal
cable from Madrid says:
a friend of the Duke of Tetuan has
just revealed the contents of a bold
and extraordinary letter addressed to
the Spanish government last week by
United States Minister Taylor.
1t is said that the queen regent was
greatly moved when Taylor's blunt
message was conveyed to her. and
that the government now considers
the diplomatic issue with the United
States as fully defined.
After announcing that Secretary
Olney had cabled approval of his con-
demnation of sham Porto Rico re-
forms as worthless and of promises of
greater reforms in Cuba as too vague
Minister Taylor wrote in plain terms
his individual idea OF what Secretary
Olney meant when ne urged prompt
action upon Spain. He said in his
letter to the Spanish minister of for
eign affairs that unless Spain offered
clear and reasonable terms as the
basis of peace in Cuba before Presi-
dent Cleveland went out of office, the
question OF local f-government in
the island would soon disappear from
American politics, and the only ques-
ton to remain would be the immedi-
ate and unconditional recognition of
the independence of the Cuban re-

Orchards.

Orchard growing is a matter of very
great Importance. Results will de-
pend upon judgment and care. If
rightly done, the benefits will continue
for a generation. The knowledge re-
quired is so simple that it might well
be expressed in four words-good trees,
varieties, cultivation.
The site for an orchard, when sur
roundings will permit, should be to the
north and west of the farm buildings,
so as to afford protection from high
winds during winter.
Pillow land in the fall, if possible:
planting is most safely done in the
north during spring. Plow well and
deep; then the land should be staked
or marked off both ways, and stakes
sets or marks made where trees are
to be set. Or to save nine-tenths of
the cost, see how many rows each way
are required. then plow in lands the
same width the rows are to stand
apart, so that each dead furrow run
ming north and south will come in the
proper place for a row of trees. When
each land is plowed, set the plow to
other round in each dead fprrow; with
steady team. and by taking pains,
this last round will leave furrow
straight Then measure off crosswise,
set three or four sight-stahes, and run
a light furrow for each row east and
west. Holes can be quickly scooped
out where burrows cross. After plant
ing, fill the burrows with one-horse
plows, using short singletrees.
Ii there is at any season standing
water on the ground, ridge the land,
leaving dead burrows for drainage.
Set the trees on centre of ridge thus
made.
Dig holes in the fall, if possible in
order to let them lie open during the
winter so the soil will freeze deeply
If clearing land, set stakes for all
trees, and there pile and burn the
brush; this puts the ashes where they
will do the most good
The wrong way to plant trees is to
smaller than the roots. shove them into
the hole. and when the latter proves
too small, jump on the roots with both
feet and jam them into it, turning the
sod bottom upward on the roots. This
is sometimes done by those who ought
to know better
The right way is to enlarge the hole
SO as to admit the roots without bend
ing. and to a. depth sufficient to plant
the tree. one inch deeper than it stood
in the nursery. Then slightly fill with
good surface soil, making a cone in
the centre upon which the tree will
stand. Bruised or broken roots cut
back to where sound using a sharp
knife and being careful to slope from
the under side, so the cut surface will
face downward. Place the tree in the
