Potash for Sugar Reefs.

In several foreign experiments with
the culture of sugar beets noted by the
department of agriculture it was found
TINT whereas heterogeneous fertilizers in
creased the yield of beets per acre,
they also decreased the sugar content
and purity of the juice, but that the
application of potash and phosphoric
acid fertilizers improved the quality of
the beets. The greatest increase in
sugar was due to potash fertilizing.
Beets grown from large seeds gave bet
ter yields and were richer in sugar
than those grown from small seeds. 1t
was concluded that IA inches was
good depth for blowing.

Any crumbs from the table are wax
liable for young chicks. Change OF
diet is requisite. Do not let the chicks
get chilled, as they are of ne earthly use
after that. I hear people say: "Oh,

trouble" Well, I go into poultry houses
where lice get onto me in a moment,

have chickens. Our chicks will show

STOCK ON THE FARM
No Matter How Small the Premises IL
VIII Pay the Owner to Keep
Hogs or Sheep.

No farm SO small but there are some
wastes on 1t if the produce is sold direct
from the farm. 1t is impossible to raise
and sell grain and hay without losing
some portion of it which might have
been saved if live stock were kept
The man with large farm may be
able to 20 on raising and selling grain
and let the wastes go, but the small
farmer cannot allow these losses.
For the small farmer horses or cattle
are out of the question as they require
too large an area for pasturage, but
with hogs or sheep the case is different.
They can be kept with profit in cdm-
paratively cramped quarters. Either Of
these kinds of stock may be used to
make meat of grass and grain. Feed
may be sold in the shape of mutton;
wool or pork to better advantage than
in it's original condition. The small
farmer should be an intensive farmer
and intensive farming is impossible
without the help of live stock or the
purchasing Of large quantities of fer
tilizers which is not good farming.
The man who owns small farm and
keeps small herd Of hogs or a small
flock Of sheep is likely to become an en-
thusiast and If this is the case the stock
Kept will get much larger prices than
common stock and the profits will be in
creased.
AS matter Of fact the small farmer
with few animals is in a position to
take the very best care of his animals
whether they are to be used for market
or are pure-breds which are to be sold
for breeders and in either case the re-
turns will be larger than they could be
where larger focks with less care are

GRATING HOGS MADE EASY

slid between the end boards and held In
place by bolt through top and bottom
of each. From bottom up, side boards
are nailed on three, four and five in
apart respectively.
To handle hogs, take three planks
one foot wide, place one end in rear of
wagon, other on ground, as shown at
C. Two men take the crate at each end,
follow up and drop over the hog and
then walk the hog under the crate, up
the plank on the wagon. IN this way |
have loaded alone hogs that weighed
400 pounds. Keep crate close to ground
or the hog will poke her nose under and
crawl out. If hogs are wild, feed them
and while eating set crate over them. l
lead hogs from pen to pasture in this
way. - C. A. Phoenix, in Farm and

On Monday Dorcas could bear 1t no
longer. 81 be that tewey and narvous,
l don't know what be about" she re-
marked, as she locked the door of the
Blue house and hid the key under the
mat. Should barge come-well, it
must manage somehow! Barges were
never in hurry. She had come to a
momentous decision. She was going
to inquire after "her little gentleman"
Whether he was i'll or gone for hol-
day, or was merely forgetful, she would
find out and end this dreadful suspense.
She was very supplemented woman,
but in her heart of hearts she felt a
little sore with the grand vizier, for
she had a notion that he was by no
means ignorant of what these Sunday
visits meant to her.
81 believe ed ave come afore this
if ed "a been let. "A be that meek
'earted a wouldn't 'urt q vloi, let alone
a 'oman," she said to herself with a
half sob. She was convinced that her
sultan could not forget so utterly the
humblest Of his slaves. So she put
on her best clothes and tight elastic
sided boots, with lots of little white but
tons adjoining the fronts.
At the Blue house, Dorcas was never
either self-conscious or shy; but when
she reached her sultan's palace, having
timidly pushed open the drive gate, she
became aware that the new boots
creaked horribly, and that perspiration
was dropping from her eyebrows into
her eyes. Having mopped her face,
and generally pulled herself together,
she managed to reach the front door,
though her knees trembled and her
heart futtered like Gagged bird.
Never was such noisy belll It
changed and echoed in most alarmiD 6
fashion; she wished that the stone
steps would open and swallow he. up.
What would they think of her for dar-
ing to make such clatter? Besides
and at the dreadful thought she nearly
cried out-of course she ought to have
gone ~ the back door.
For full five minutes she stood on the
steps, listening to any sound inside
the house, but all was perfectly quiet
She turned and went into the drive,
meaning to go round to the back door,
when it occurred to her to look back at
the house; she had been far too nervous
to do so as she came in. The lower win
dows were suffered, and all the blinds
were down.
They had, gone, thenl and it was
empty. "And they never didn't bring

TEDDY IS GUILTY
Told the Court SO Today and
Got Eight Years.
LONG PLEA FOR LENlENCY
"JOnes," the Other Burglar, Who
Paved the Way For the
Prisoner, Escaped.
PLEA FOR LENIENCY

George Teddy surprised Judge Clancy
and the attorneys in his court room today
by pleading guilty to a charge of burglary
n was sentenced to eight years at hard
labor in the penitentiary. He is the man
who a few weeks ago entered the Butte
brewery saloon IN Wyoming street by
cutting a hole in the door and getting
himself shot in the arm by Henry Munt-
ger, the proprietor. Before sentence was
imposed Attorney Broderson, who repre-
sented the defendant, addressed the court
in behalf of his client. He was in search
of leniency. He stated that Teddy was p
years old; that he had been born in Mich
igan, but at the age of 16 years had left
home and became a wandered. He had
worked at various places in Michigan and
Montana, but had contracted an awful
thirst, a thirst he could not overcome as
he left home unprepared to meet tempta-
ton. The money he had earned by his
labor had been spent in saloons. He had
refused to petition his relatives in the east
for help because they were respectable. He
had, since coming to Butte, associated
with such characters as Jones'" who in.
duced him to commit the crime-even I'M
locked the door of hunters place for
him.. Had he been in his proper mind;
that is, sober, he might have escaped the
same as Jones'" did because he a am
pie time in which to do it. Il do not be-
lieve he is a criminal, but the victim of
circumstances" said Mr.. Broderson. The
fact that he was drunk is certainly no
excuse for him, but it is a matter to be
considered. He is not guilty and yet he
is guilty. AS to "Mr. JONES' he was an
old burglar. He was with the prisoner
three or four days prior to the commission
of the crime and induced him to enter the
place. 1t is Teddy's first offense. In case
he should be incarcerated for a number OF
years, would that make a better man OF
him? We are sorry this morning that he
entered that saloon and believe that if ne
is given another chance he will lead 6
better life"
The county attorney argued that drunk
mess was no excuse; that Teddy ha(
probably braced himself with a few
drinks in order to give himself courage.
we did not state that intoXication wa:
an excuse for the crime said Broderson
but that the prisoner had been drunk fol
years."
The attorney for the defense then spoke
of the manner in which Teddy had enter
ed the saloon and Broderson took another
view of it.
Il don't believe you were there, Mr.
Broderson,' said Mr.. Connolly.
"Well, were you there?" asked Broder.
son.
When the judge said eight years al
hard labor" Teddy's face did not hang,
color. He simply turned his eyes in thu
direction of his attorney and let it go al
that.

county by George Miller of Deer Lodge,

and George Huffaker secretary.
Governor Smith and State Treasurer
Collins addressed the assessors. Both ex-
pressed the hope that much benefit would
result from the meeting and that a more
determined effort would be made to as
sess property nearer its value. They eX-
pressed the belief that the stock inter-
ests, especially cattle, were not being as
sessed as closely as they should be. It. c.
Power, president of the state sheep COM
mission, also addressed them.
A committee consisting of Assessor Sui
Ivan of ChOteau, Burkenbuel of Cascade
and Cowan of Gallatin, recommended the
appointment of a committee to reappOr-
ton the assessments of the following
lines: Cattle, sheep, real estate and i'm

ing, logs and lumber, bank stock, mort
cages and merchandise. These commit
tees were appointed n the assessors
adjourned until today, when it is expect
ed the committees will report.
The chief feature of the assessors meet

assessment. A number of prominent

SPANS Sunken Ships Floated.

Perhaps the greatest mechanical feat Of
the century has been the raising of some
OF the Spanish warships which were ap-
parently shot to pieces at Santiago. 1t
seemed utterly impossible to float them
because of the terrible damage inflicted
by our guns, but the task has peer ac-
complished. Diseases of the blood, stom-
ach liver frequently wreck the health
so that there appears to be no chance of
recovery. But when Hostetter's Stomach
