GRAPHING THE PLUM.


We have two inquiries as to how best
to propagate desirable varieties OF
plums, one from a friend who has a
greatly valued variety of the native or
Americana plum. He wishes to know
If he plants the pits of this plum
whether he will get the same variety.
No, he will not. 1t is probable that
some Of the Seeding trees so produced
will produce fruit something Of the
type Of the mother tree but there is no
certainty that they will. the pollen of
a hundred other types Of plums per-
haps having had hand In fertilizing
these plum pits. The surest and in fact
the only way to propagate any variety
Of plum is to graft or bud the Seeding
trees with ciOns or buds taken from
the mother tree. Another reader would
like to know how to effect n harmOni-
GUS union of the graft of the European
plums upon native stocks. This is a
difficult thing to do, not but what the
graft will grow all right, but the gen
eral habit of growth Of the European
plums is so much greater than that Of
the native types that the top of the
tree so grated almost always out
grows the trunk. We have several
such trees, and In order to try and pre-
serve a proper balance between trunk
and top we keep the top well cut back
and in May or June slit the trunk
through the bark from top to bottom
in two or three places with a sharp
knife. We think that all trees SO graft.
ed are short lived at best.

Fool LICK.

A farmer sent a green hired man out
with the planter to plant big field Of
corn last spring. The farmer supposed
that the hired man knew how to Oper-
ate the machine, and he did, MS it
turned out. About the time he had the
field planted the farmer went out to
the field and discovered that the man
had set the machine so that all the
seed corn was planted from four to FIVE
inches deep. Then the farmer lifted up
his voice and cussed this hired man In
a most eloquent agricultural way.
Well, a third Of the corn never showed
above ground, and what did had a
hard pull to get through and looked
very tired. The crop was cared for,
however, and then came the drought,
and the cornhelds with a good stand
and properly planted little by little
gave up the ghost and became an acre

mans field with its thin stand and
deep rooted corn showed up green and

We are asked about the Alberta coun-

While it lies in latitude 80 to So degrees

tiers are the rule, 1t still lies so far west
that the extremes of cold are greatly
tempered by the influences of the Japan
current on the Pacific coast, which

watered, has sufficient rainfall, pos

When girl or woman steps aside |
from the stereotyped wOman's way
and attempts to make place for her
self IN the world on the strength of her
own ability, we always Ike to read Of
her success. Nowhere are two Kansas
girls who, unalded. have this year rails
ed fifty acres of wheat In addition
they take care Of a dairy of COWS,
good drove Of hogs and the horses.
They have lifted the old mortgage on
the farm, bought new buggy and
have balance in the bank. This fall

furniture and carpets and plano, and

one of those girls unless he Is an all

be done without impairment of
wOmalily culture and Vehement, and
1t can, why should not more girls try
this plan OF achieving independence
Presumably to the financial success as
above outlined should be added the

IRE In itself.
ENGLAND's BIG WHEAT CROPS.
A noted agricultural writer states
that the cause Of the great difference
between the average wheat yield Of
England and the United States-thirty
bushels per acre for England and but
fifteen bushels for this country-is sole
ly owing to the fact that the English
wheat grower takes more pains In the
selection Of his seed grain. We do not
agree with this theory. Climatic con-
ditions are infinitely more favorable to
the production Of large wheat crops
in England than they are In this coun-
try. In this country where climatic
conditions akin to those found IN Eng
land are met there are Just as big and
even better crops of wheat raised-foE
instance, In Washington, Oregon and
some parts Of Idaho. We have sam

We have taken not little trouble to
ascertain whether or not a city demand
existed or could be created for bnled
shredded corn fodder, q forage which
is conceded to be equal to the best
timothy hay. Correspondence with
commission men who handle such prod
ucts shows that it is new thing about
which they know little. One commits
sion man writes that while there is
no question about the value Of the fod-
der, there is a trouble connected with
keeping 1t in a baled condition, it hav-
ing the tendency to absorb dampness
from the atmosphere, resulting in a
production of mold inside the bale.
He adds that this class Of fodder can
be more economically consumed on the
farm, releasing the hay product Of the
farm for sale in the cities. But this
fact in no manner bclittles the value Of
this product

GlRL MINE OWNERs.
Z FHbulOusIy Rich Ledge Which
They Are Working In Secret.


Away up in the Medicine Bow noun
tains, not far from the Wyoming line,
there is a hidden mine for which a gen
Grafton of men have searched in vain,
says the Denver Post, and it is owned,
operated and its location kept secret by
two young women, who have kept their
secret since one was eighteen and the
other but fourteen years old.
The lode was discovered sixteen years
ago by a tenderfoot named Smithers. He
was ordered west by the doctors and
came to Colorado Leaving his wife and
two little girls ut Fort Collins, be went up
into the mountains to prospect. In some
unexplained way be discovered an enor-
mously rich ledge Of quartz and recog-
nized its value.
Then he returned to Fort Collins for his
family, having been absent about year.
His wife had died during his stay in the
mountains, but he found his children in
care of a ranchman. He took them up
into the mountains with him, and they
| have lived ever since in the cabin he built
for them.
Smithers cleared off a ranch and did
little farming, got little stock and raised
his own milk and butter and eggs and
lived outwardly like thousands of small
mountain ranchmen all over the Rocky
mountain region. But secretly he worked
on the ledge Of gold quartz he discovered.
He broke down pieces from the vein,
ground them up in a mortar, PANIED
them and got gold enough to keep him
and his children without other work than
caring for their little farm.
This life began when the children were
about seven and three years old respec-
lively. When the older one was eighteen
and her sister fourteen, Smithers died.
He had taught them the secret of the hid
den mine, and when he was gone the two
orphans lived alone in the same manner.
They looked after their little stock, tend
ed their little farm and in secret ground
up pieces of quartz and panned the gold
from it.
