NEW WORKERS.

A very important mining enterprise was inaugurated in this city yesterday, having for it's purpose the opening up and development of several claims in Quartz mountain district that certain ly give promise on the surface of war ranting a heavy expenditure in thor oughly prospecting. The name of the firm is Place & Richardson and the mine is known at the Overlook, Yes terday these people loaded up several teams with mining supplies and with a force of four miners started the work. The property lays but four miles from town and although an old one so far as it's location goes. It has had but very limited amount of work done on it. It is easily reached by a blackboard, and the energetic gentle men behind it, as well as several ex- perienced miners who have looked it over, believe it will make into a good mine when depth is reached, every in dication pointing to that belief as far as surface development goes. In con- nection with this enterprise that was undertaken yesterday coincidence in the mining career of one of the firm as sociated with the work started is mo- ticeable in this: It was ten years ago yesterday that MT. Place stuck the first pick into the now famous Crowned King and from that day up to the pres ent time the mine has never pinched. As he is the father of this Bradshaw

soil. The more fragments that can be spread around the better, but they should be buried so deep that a blow or spade will not reach them. The roots of growing vines or fruit trees will soon find this mine of fertility, and will feed On the elements that will greatly promote the growth of healthy wood and the development of fair and luscious fruit.
 Many horticulturists and farmers buy bone dust costing not less than $20 per ton, simply to enrich the soil around and beneath their vines and trees. Fragments of bones are just as valuable as ground bone, although their elements will not be as available in so short a time as if the large pieces were reduced to atoms. Nevertheless if large bones are buried three or four feet from grapevine, the countless numbers of mouths at the ends of roots will soon dissolve, take up and approp- riate every particle.
 When cast out of the kitchen door, bones are nuisance, but if properly used, they become a source of valu- able fertility. Let every person who owns grapevine or fruit tree save all the bones that pass through the kitch- en and bury them where they will be turned to some profit.

INTENSE FARMING"

Not many people seem to understand the meaning of the term intense" as here applied. Prof. w. F. Massey of the North Carolina agricultural and mechanical college, when asked to de- fine the term, said:
 By intense farming we mean farm ing in business like manner-to get all that is possible out of the land and at ..hhe same time keep the land grow ing better and better, instead of i'm poverishing it. Intensive farming is the opposite of extensive farming, in that 1t has regard to acres rather than regard to product per hand or mule with the acres left out. By this kind Of farming the land is always kept at work growing something, either for sale or for its own improvement, it having been found that the best pos sible way to rest land is to keep it at work growing a recuperative crop.
 "The fntensiveness comes in by hay ing every acre produce it's maximum crop, and to do this by good farming and an intelligent rotation of crops rather than by thoughtless use of fertilizers. In reality, however, we are using fertilizers in more liberal man ner, but using the cheaper forms of phosphoric acid to encourage the growth of peas and clover, and to de- pend upon these to get from the air the nitrogen, which is the most cost ly element in a commercial fertilizer In this way, with every acre under a systematic rotation in corn, wheat or oats, peas. clover, and cotton (with peas or clover run in between the Oth- CT crops as often as possible), and the fertilizers used mainly on the peas or clover, the land will be constantly gaining in fertility and productive capacity, instead of being gradually impoverished as under the old system and worn out farms, of which there are now so many, will become things of the past.
 'This is farming as distinguished from planting''

eolored ones have paled by being close ly set, one against the other. Inter facing of the roots and mingling of the pollen was the apparent cause of the changes.
 The most curious accidental change in record is that of a row of half -dou- ble, old fashioned red cluster roses set alternately with half-double, common white cluster roses. After awhile there was period of neither doing we'll, and many absolutely died out. Those left were carefully nurtured and re- tivatin by sending forth large, full, very double roses, but only one bud on each long stem and of a very delicate shade of pink, and, strangest of all, the wonder of wonders, they were thornless. Where had the thorns gone, and why? Here was a change from half double to double; from the habit of the old fashioned cluster to the new style of long, single stems. and no thorns. Surely nature is a skilful manipulator and lull of unac countable vagaries. The common yell low rose is as hardy as an old time IT, lac and makes a most brilliant and successfully thorny hedge. It is one of the freest bloomers, and in bud or full bloom is wonder of simple beau ty. It is sold by some dealers as liar rison's yellow" by others simply as the hardy yellow rose" An old farmer told the writer that he had "fa- thered" all the yellow roses in his neighborhood by grating scion of his common white rose into the stock of barberry bushes. .''-Keslah Shelton in Boston Transcript.

HOW TO USE WASTE BONES.

The bones of fish and fowls, and the large and small pieces of bones which are bought with beefsteak and nut ton, constitute the very best food for fruit trees and grapevines if the frag- ments are only placed where the roots can lay hold of them.
 Instead of being cast into the back yard as food for stray dogs and cats, care should be taken to deposit every thing of the sort in small tub with a cover. AS soon as few pounds have accumulated, take the tub to some grapevine or fruit tree, dig hole three or more feet long, a foot or two deep, dump in the bones and fill in the

FLOWER CHANGES BY ASSOCL
 TON.

There are many curious and inter- esting features in all floral culture, and none more so than the complete changes both of color and habit, Dy planting in close contiguity, or in changing from one soil and locality to another, where different conditions prevail.
 A lovely blush rose of most uncom- mon beauty and fitness of petals was removed to a home not five miles dis tant, and when it bloomed it was cnly a half-double and "just common red rose" Its owner was much disap- pointed and most positive that a 'blush rose" was not sent. Not daunted, she tried again, and this time, to make sure, saw the rose taken from the par ent clump, yet To! when it bloomer next summer it was still again almost single, and "only common red ross" :" The blush rose had grown in a poor, lime rock soil, and was transplanted into rich, black, loamy soil; no other reason was discovered.

REVIVAL IN MINING.

Despite the fact that the attention of syndicates has been largely deflected from mining enterprises in the west, by the apparent opportunities growing out of the war with Spain for very promising investments in other lines, it is interesting to note the activity of smaller capitalists in the inter-moun- tain region. There has been no period in the history of Montana and adjoin- ing states perhaps when more activity was evident in the way of converting promising prospects into mines. Cap italists of the middle west whose in- terests are n.-t syndicated, and who realize their inability to successfully compete with the vast aggregations of organized wealth that will in due time absorb the speculative opportunities of the war, find in the mining fields of the west ample chances to cushion the fu- ture with velvet and quadruple the money they see fit to invest.
 The trend toward promising pros poets and partially developed mines, rather than to the purchase of great mining properties, seems to be well in- itiated, and promises future of un- equailed achievement in the mining industry. When capitalists fully real ize that the investment of few thou sand dollars in the development of min ing property that gives every geologi- cal and mineralogica evidence of wealth when properly exploited, is a safer system of procedure than to ex- pend millions for demonstrated prop erty that may perchance be in the af- ternoon of it's prosperity, the, mineral industry will receive a momentum from which it will never recede. Time was when tendency in this direction was checked through the brutal abuse of opportunity, wildcat schemes of the most scandalous type being foisted up- on susceptible investors. Men with bunco-steering abilities unloaded worthless properties on eastern capl- talists who desired to identify them selves with the growth and prosperity of the west. The losses of money re sulting from such work not only de- f1ected capital from mining properties not absolutely developed to the point of profitable production, but likewise diffused sentiments of prejudice against the political interests of the west, through which the mountain states have suffered irreparable loss.
 Now that a tendency to take hold of undeveloped properties is manifested again let the rights of the investor be scrupulously protected. A mining country Is not developed by one pro ducing mine, however magnificent its yield, but by transforming prospects into mines. It is infinitely better for fo share the ups and downs of embryonic mines, and uncover the hidden wealth of our great mineral fields, rather than limit the expenditure of capital to the production of wealth already in sight. But capital is entitled to hon. est treatment and the man who seeks to inveigle it into wildcat propositions is an enemy to the commonwealth-a traitor to the interests of his state.- Western Mining World.

DISEASED FRUIT TREES.

There should be no hesitancy on the part of the farmer in cutting down a tree that is blighted, as the sooner it is done the less the liability of dis ease appearing in other trees in the orchard. To allow;a tree to remain in order to save it by the application of some remedy is to incur a. risk Every portion of a diseased tree should be consigned to the flames.

from public life in 1890, was shown by an
affecting cartoon, where the great ex-
