BALTIMORE TRIP.
Target Practice-Mansuve and
Various Drills.

At 1 p. M. Saturday, the Z. S. S.
Baltimore returned from her trip to
Lahaina, where she had target prac-
tice with both the large and small
guns
The target was the regulation trian-
gular one, set out in open sea, the
ship steaming around it and firing
from distances varying from 1000 to
5000 yards.
The second day out was spent cor
recting the compasses, the third at
various sea maneuvers, and the fourth
at a speed trial with all four of her
boilers.
Both the target practice and the
speed trial were very satisfactory, and
showed the Baltimore to be a vessel
which could be depended on under any
emergency.
The boys were routed out of their
comfortable hammocks on several oc-
casions in the dead of night, to take
stations at fire drill, collision and gem
eral quarters, and showed remarkable
proficiency in each.
The trip was a pleasant one all
through, as life aboard a ship becomes
very monotonous when lying in port
any length of time.

Utah Soils.


ment Station by j. A. Widtsoe, las just
been issued. Among other subjec,s IL
considers these: What makes Il soil
fertile soil foods essential to plant
growth; the chemical composition OF
soils from Cache and sanpete counties ;
some suggestions for maintaining and
increasing the fertility OF Utah soils.
Some of the facts brought out are tie
following Not all substances found in
soils are necessary to plant growth.
Cache Valley. and many other western
valleys OF Utah, were formerly filled
with water, forming large lake, known
as Lake Bonneville. The agricultural
soils OF the valley are located, mainly on
the old lake bottom.
The general nature OF Cache Valley
soils is of moderately clayey loan
The soils on the h'llsides, which have
been Influenced by the season wash
from the mountains, contain most clay
The soils along the middle OF the valley
are more sandy, although occasional
tracts OF cray occur
Cache Valley soils do not differ much
in composition from the majority of the
soils OF the arid part OF America. They
are abundantly supplied with all the
essential plant foods, and, with proper
tillage, will "last' for an indefinite
period. Phosphorc acid is present in
least abundance.
THERE'S less lime in Cache Valley soils
than in any other soil district within
the Bonneville Basin. This ~ due to the
freshening inhuenc. of Bear River, dur
ing the time OF Ii k Bonneville, which
IRE Ient d a pref a ion of lime from
the water OF the valley.
Sanpete Valley as not submerged ut
the time of Lake Bonneville. 1t was,
however, filed with water at an earlier
period.
The soils OF Sanpete Valley have been
formed chiefly from the calcarcous
shales OF the High Plateaus of Utah, on
the northern edge OF which the valley is
situated.
The general nature of Sanpete Valley
soils is that OF rather clayey soil mixed
with an extraordinarily large amount Of
lime. The excess OF lime obscures the
properties OF the clay.
In composition, the soils OF Sanpete
Valley differ from recorded analysis of
soils from other portions of the Great
Basin, In that they contain more lime.
Otherwise they are not strikingly
different. They are extremely fertile
soils that "last" foran indefinite period
AS in Cache Valley soils, the phospboric
acid is least abundant.
The large amount OF lime in tie soils
OF Sanpete County is due, chiefly, to the
cslcareous nature OF the mountains from
which the soils have been made, and
partly the precipitation Of lime from the
water which once filed the valley.
Utah soils are remarkable from the
abundance OF plant food they contain
especially OF lime.
Urah soils. II treated properly will not
wear out for many centuries.
Utah coils are occasionally deficient
in nitrogen. This elemen may by added
by growing leguminons crops, such as
lucern, peas, beans, etc.
To keep up the fertility OF Utah soils
rational system Of crop rotation should
be followed by the farmers.
Commercial fertili~ are not needed
on Utah soi,s. Money spent on them is
as rule, money wasted.

From the Louisville Commercial.

Several good religious people who are ac-

road were considerably shocked the other
morning when on passing a blacksmith
shop at the edge of the town they were
brought face to face with a large sign,
''Vice for sale here" One old lady, who
has for years been identified with philan-
thropic and charitable work, was especially
indignant. Purely in the interests of socie-
ty she undertook to discover just what par
ticular style of evil was for sale.
Entering the shop with her nose high in
the air, she approached the proprietor.
Man. she said, Il understand you have
vice for sale here

tue.

Insect Industry.
From the Spokane spokesman-Reyiew.

rT"h tue SPOKANE SpOkeSman-Reyfew
In several cases industry is indebted to
the insect world for unique substances. For
many years the cochineal or cactus scale
plant was used as the basis of an important
red dye until practically superseded by the
introduction of aniline dyes. A single spe-
cies OF lac insect produces practically all
the shellac stick and button lac of COM
merce. In southwestern Asia the creosote
bushes arc the breeding ground of enor-
nous quantities of lac insect, the COM
mercial possibilities of which have not vet
been developed. A species of scale insect
In China yields pure white wax of great
value and rarity. The Chinese wax is said
to have ten times the illuminating power of
other wakes. 1t is beautiful substance,
resembling beeswax more than vegetable
wax in its chemical composition and Ia
clear white in color. Now a discovery
which promises to be of great economic
val"e comes from Mesa Grande Cal The
vegetation in this district Is infested with
an insect which, on being removed from
the twigs of oak on which 1t thrives, and
compressed in quantities by the hand. be-
comes more or less pliable lump some-
what resembling rubber, but not possessing
the same elasticity. Part of 1t has been
proved by ch ,mical analysis to be true
wax and part resembles rubber in it's physi-
cal properties. The product is equally in
teresting from a chemical and Industrial
point of view, and the supply Is well nigh
fnexhaustible.
