The main shaft on the Occident
mine, at White Hills, has reached wa
ter and a change of ore is expected,
although as yet the ore is the same as
at the outcrop. The shaft is at depth
of TAO feet on the incline, At the 100
level the crosscut is in rich ore and at
the 200level the same ore chute has
been broken into. The mill is now
running one shift of twelve hours and
turning ont large amount of bullion.
The ore retains the same rich quality
wherever broken into and the ledge Is

DR.. Theo. b. Comstock, manager Of
the Security Development Company,
is finishing up assessment work on
mining claims owned by the company
in and around Chloride, and Tuesday
last put twenty men to work. After
the first of the year he will put force
of men to work on the Elkhart and will
continue the main shaft to the 1000
level. 1t is the general belief that a
new ore zone will be encountered be.
tween the 600 and the 1000 levels. The
ore is going to gold as depth is reached
in the Chloride district and at the
deeper level great values in the yellow
metal will be found, if the theory is
correct.

Use of Farmyard Manure.

In writing on the use of farmyard
manure, Professor w. F. Massey saws:
MANY of our friends still seem to be
imbued with the old liking for we'll
rotted manure. We do not want to let
our manure get we'll rotted before we
apply it to the land. The place to rot
the manure is in the soil, where you
have the soil to absorb everything. If
the manure is spread on the surface,
the soluble parts wash Immediately
into the land, and the loss is smaller
than in any way the manure can be
treated, far less than piling in the barn
yard, either under cover or not. The
evaporation from manure spread on the
surface is mainly only water, while the
evaporation from piled manure is
largely ammonia in volatile form.
No matter how well the manure is
handled, there will always be more loss
from 1t in the barnyard than in the
field. Manure on the surface keeps
the soil moist, and prevents the baking
OF clay soil. In our experience, right
on top as near as may be is the best
possible place for the manure. Lately
l have had a sample on a small scale
of the value of surface manuring on
clay SOIL A year ago we built at our
college new lecture hall, laboratory
and green houses for my department.
To get level site for the building, we
had to excavate into red clay hillside,
and pile the clay taken from the exca-
walton in the lower levels. On the
grounds around the building l have
been trying to convert this clay into
garden. Grass plots were formed, and
large shrubbery beds prepared, and
planted in the untamed clay. After
everything was planted good coat of
manure waa placed on the surface, and
left there. Last summer was the hot.
test and dryest ever known here, but it
was pleasant to see how things grew
and fourished in that clay, which was
merely the subsoil piled three or four
feet deep. This spring the soil in these
beds works as mellow as the traditional
ash heap, and the bloom of the roses
and shrubbery of all kinds is simply
amazing, being fully twice as great as
with the same kinds of plants set in
natural soil everywhere. l use all ma
nure as a mulch either in garden or
field. In the garden, after setting
plants or planting seed, the manure is
spread over the surface, and left there
to be slightly worked in during cult
yation."

SOiling and Ensilage.

Ensilage has produced quite revolu-
ton in farming, but that is only "win-
ter soiling," and has not accomplished
half OF what may be done by pursuing
the method all the year round, for,
as have always claimed, summer soil
ing has many advantages over winter
soiling, as will be shown further on, 80
that, although ensilage has made such
wonderful strides, it by no means rep
resents the best half of the system.
Why, then, it may be asked has en-
silage preceded soiling? Principally,
believe, because it was new and start
ling discovery, and required an outlay
of capital to begin with. Soon after
ensilage made it's appearance manufac-
turers of feed cutters sent catalogues
and circulars advertising their machines
broadcast over the country, agents can
vassed towns, exhibited their machines
at fairs, and told exaggerated stories
of the advantages to be gained by en-
Staging corn fodder. They said that
ensilage was good thing, and that
their particular machine was the only
thing. Ensilage being a new depart
ure, new discovery, the agricultural
papers were full of it, and later it be-
came popular theme for discussion at
the farmers institutes, where it was
listened to because it was new and SEN
sational.
Soiling, on the other hand, was
question that every farmer was famil-
lar with. Few could be found but that
had practised it to the extent of cutting
clover green, and feeding it to their
work horses in the barns, or had sown
patch of corn for their cows to be fed
over the fence in the pasture field to
help out the pasture in a dry season.
In doing this they never discovered
anything very wonderful, or striking,
or sensational, as was the case in the
introduction of ensilage.
ANS OhO tuihOH anu dlLOBGIubT
it had little to force itself upon the at
tention of the public.
Soiling has been unfortunate in not
being properly introduced. No one in
all the country has farthing to gain
out of the farmer by advocating the
system or encouraging its adoption.
/ have lived long enough TO discover
that people will listen to good advice,
and admit that it is good advice, but if
they can obtain it for nothing, it is sell
dom appreciated and rarely made use
Of. | believe that if it required al
investment of a thousand dollars in
patent machinery, the soiling system
would long ago have been adopted on
thousands OF farms, where today it is
not praetised at all, or only done by
halves. People appreciate everything
by what 1t costs.-Frank S. Peer, ia |

Scottish and Irish Cattle in England,

While the Jersey breed has been
spreading rapidly over England from
its island home in the south, the country
OF the rose has been strongly invaded
from the north by the Aberdeen Angus
polls, and from the west by the Kerry
and Dexter varieties. The black polls
from the northeast of Scotland have
prospered greatly and continuously
south of the Tweed, and, by all appear
ances, still wider popularity is in store
Tor them. The special excellence of
this hardy breed, unlike that of the
jersey, is seen in beef production, and
1t is chiefly by means of their beneficial
influences in raising the standard of
the common cattle of the country in
this respect that the impressive black
polls have attained their strong posi-
ton in England. The herds of pure
bred Aberdeen-Angus cattle are not as
yet very numerous, but 80 extensively
are bulls of the breed used for crossing
purposes that black or blue-gray horn
less bullocks are as plentiful as peas in
most of the leading markets. The con-
tinued progress of the breed has led TO
the formation of an English Aberdeen
Angus Cattle Association, which is to
make the further extension of the
breed in the south the object of special
attention and endeavor. The presi-
dent is the Rev. G.. Baden, and the
secretary A. Pulling, Beddington, near
Croydon, Surrey.
Nor are the hardy little Irish breeds
behind. Both the Kerry and the Dex.
ter have firmly established themselves
in this country, where they have en-
listed many admirers. These kindred
varieties also boast an English exclu-
sive association, which has begun oper-
atoms by the compilation and publica-
ton of an "English Kerry and Dexter
Herd Book" The new volume made
it's appearance in substantial form
last week, and if the first number is any
criterion Of the future popularity of
these breeds the outlook is cheerful in
deed.-Birmingham Daily Post.
