A Rich Mine At Stake.

Council Bluffs, Ia, Oct. S.-When
court convened this morning c. ].
Hughes, Jr., counsel for plaintiff in
the Doyle-Burns mining case, involv-
ing million dollars worth Of mining

the point of the admissibility of the
evidence of Doyle touching the rela-
tions between himself and Burns prior
to the time the original contract or
agreement is alleged to have been
made.
Senator Patterson of Colorado, coun-
sci for the defense, followed Hughes,
and Baldwin closed for the defense.
The point will decide whether or not
the evidence will be introduced by
plaintiff, which is expected to have
material effect on the final outcome.
Nearly every lawyer in this city and
Omaha who could be present listened
to the arguments.

l think your method of cultivating corn
involving so many anG such deep fur
rows, rather too expensive. | hold fast
to the theory that the soil should be
thorouehly plowed before or at the time
of PLANTING, that the cultivation sGbse-
quent to planting should lie shallow. Six
trips from end to end of a row of a cul-
tivator to each siX-foot row-should an
swer fairly well for the after culture.
3. / think your cotton seed would be
buried deeper than desirable by the plan
you propose. and twenty-five furr)ws to
a six-foot corn row would be very cx-
pensive cultivation.

The Best Variety of Cotton.

T. G. L., Arcadia. Ia.-Please answer
these few questions through your Naiua-
BILE paper: -
l. What Is the best variety of cotton

Answer. I have often hoen asked The
question. (which is the best variety of
cotton?" but have not felt prepared 20
answer. ard really do not think ! should
be called on TO answer such a question,
for more than one reason, chief of when
is that | would thereby take the risk OF
doing injustice TO some variety that /
have never tested. Another reason is,
that as the conditions vary-the weather.
etc-so do the different varieties vary IN
relative productiveness. The Georgia FN-
pertinent station, Experiment, ia. toi
which / am director) makes quite elao-
Orato field tests of from IL to - varieties
every year and the bulletins containing
the results of these tests are sent to farm
ers on request. In this way every farmer
IS enabled to form his own conclusions
as 70 the variety that would probably suit
his locality best. These tests are made on
the Experiment Station farm, ami the re-
suits are not by any means conclusive, in
that they Will be an unerrlng guide to the
selection of "A variety for an entirely dlt-
ferent locality. | presume similar tests
of varieties are made at your state eXpe-

To w. H. Casev Tishabee Ala think
It probable that the black spots are mere
" the remains-scars of some form or

whatever in using the meat. If there
were any danger in eating the raw pork
(which Won are not likely to do) thorough
cooking would render it entirely whole

Will make n good fertilizer for cotton on

common salt such as have been used
for resulting of meat and what propor-
tionaI part of each to the ton?
Answer-Common salt which has been
used for resulting meat is valuable as a
fertilizer only to the value of the blood
that is in it, which is usually too insig-
nificant to amount to anything. Mix 200
pounds of acid phosphate. % pounds OF

etc, that are unavoidaby mixed with
