A Jersey cow in Wisconsin consumed
the following amount Of food during
a period OF one year: Bran of the value
OF S12.70; hay, 81; ensilage, so; oats.
$10.S0; gluten meal, $40; pasture, So:
total, $49.95. She gave 13,474 pounds
of milk, which made TAO pounds Of
butter. which sold for 25 cents per
pound, amounting to $148 leaving a
net profit Of $9S.73 This is interesting
as showing what COW is capable Of
doing when of the right breeding and
given proper care.

The greatest foe to a well stocked
tool chest on the farm is the propensity
of irnproyident and careless neighbors
to borrow and never return An oblig-

When the public health and the pr.
vate pocketbook run counter Of each
other, the dear people had better be
looking after their health, for private
greed, unchecked, would kill off whole
communities If 1t could make dollar
head doing it. The adulteration Of
food products is big enough question
to justify the sericHs attention and
radical action Of the United States
congress Because the fools will buy
and eat adulterated foods it Is still no
reason why the rascaIs sheuld be al
lowed to sell them.

Good in theory but bad in
 practice-the session of the pub lie lands to the States and Ter ritories. And no one understands this better or more fully realizes thot such action would retard de- velopent and shut out desired immigration than the people of the States themselves to which it has been proposed to cede the public lands.
 Under the heading Tt would ruin Montana" a Montana paper recently said: "Cede the public lands to Montana and you will see more legislative corruption here while the lands are being disposed of than was ever dream- ed of before in this State. Com- binations of capitalists, desiring to acquire large bodies of lands, can and will shape legislation to suit themselves"
 State cession is a menace to the country. It would kill the reclamation of the West by that healthy settlement of the indus trous home-builder with his small farm. Thus the arid States would lose directly, while the whole country would suffer thru the establishment of uast undivided land tracts instead of thousands of small farms forming a net work of production, industry and population.

Irrigation Item.
EduCative at Least.


 The. public pressure that has been brought to bear upon Con-
 gress to take up the question of
 Western Irrigation as a public improvement of arid lands has been exceedingly strong. The question seems to have forced it. self to the front of it's own vo1i- t1on. For a subject which in the early winter 1t was not proposed to push upon Congress, owing to the shortness of a very full share of dicuSsion, under one heading and another, at almost every turn of that body. The country IS getting to know something about the possibilities of national irrigation, and Congress itself has learned that 1t Is one of the foremost questions pressing for solution; and that 1t must soon be taken up and passed upon.

Apache county's apparent felicity in the marrage relation needs a little explanation. There was no dis trict court in that country during 1900. Two divorce cases remain on the docket untried. In Yava- pal 1t will be observed that about one couple out of three have found marriage failure. The general average lacks a little of Is per cent of diVorces to the number welded.

It would certainly be the course of wisdom for this country to practically annex by irrigation the vast territory of the arid region, with it's possibilities for supporting a population which add so much to the wealth and resource of the country. The Secretary of the Interior, in his last report. estimates that the arid region, under a comprehen- siye system of irrigation and conservation of floods, would support a population of 50,OOO,- GOO. This seems almost incred- lble, even with the example of our most densly populated section of the country. But 1t IS explained by the fact that owing to its great productiveness, small areas of irrigation lands suffice for the needs of the individual farmer, and a dense farming population naturally attracts large urban population en-

Three Results.

More farming land for the West, more money for the East, and less water for the South! This may besaid to be symy- posium of the result of a compre- hensive irrigation policy which would place 75,000,OOO acres of now arid Western land under close cultivation, thus create an immense home-market for the manufacturing interests of the East and at the same time large ly prevent the disastrous floods of the Mississippi valley.

Cuts Both Ways.


 Secretary of the interior Hitch cock emphasizes the fact that any means that results in the up- building of the West must create an additional market for the manufactures of the East. This may seem a sordid way of looking at the matter, yet it is a purely business proposition. It is tan- tamous to a guaranty that the East will receieve a direct return for any benefit it may confer on the West by assisting in it's de- ve1opment.

A Chance for All.


 The main object of Eastern Congressmen to the reclamation of the arid lambs thru Govern ment appropriations is that such action would be in effect to tax the East for the benefit of the West.
 This objection is not valid, for the lands after redemtion would be available for Eastern home seekers as we'll as for Western men, and the upbui1ding of that great region would benefit all sections of the Union.

President Scallon today announces to
the thousands of miners under his con-
t,ol in the Anaconda and Butte and Bos-
I, n mines the good news that on and
after February LIST next eight hours will
G, institute days work underground. No
more welcome news than this has gone
out to the army of miners in the employ
OF the Anaconda. and the action of the
company gives ample evidence of its de
sire to grant all reasona BILE and necessary
concessions to those in it's employ. and is
in line with the liberal policy which has
always characterized the manag ement of
the Anaconda company. But for the in
iet ton of politics into the question. to
purely selfish and political ends we have
40 doubt but that this reform would have
been instituted before now.
With the eight hour day in force in the
Anaconda mines. its general adoption in
this district is assured beyond doubt.

THE UTAH SENATOR.

Thomas kearns. who was last night
made the caucus candidate of the re-
publican majority of the Utah legisla-
ture to represent Utah in the United
States senate. will be one of the young
est men in the senate. He is about SO
years of age. and his life reads like a
romance. He spent his boyhood and
youth on the plains of Nebraska and be-
came cowboy, being employed by one
of the big cattle companies until some
time in the sos when he went to Dem
YER and joined the construction force
of the Denver & Rio Grande railway,
then building from Colorado to Salt
Lake City. He worked as a laborer
uatil the grade was completed tn Salt
Lake, and then went up to Park City
David Keith, was foreman of the Onta-
rio mine and gave the young man work
as a miner Mr.. Kearns worked under
ground for several years, but was all
the time looking for chance to better
his condition, and while operating
small lease discovered what is now the
famous Silver King mine. During all
this time he was without dollar eX-
cept what he earned at the Ontario,
his work on the lease being done by
him on his own time between shifts.
He succeeded in interesting David Keith
and three or four other practical miners
in his discovery, and they developed the
Silver King, which has paid enormous
profits from the start.
1t was not unit 1896 that Mr.. Kearns
became active in politics and in that
year. With the other silver republicans,
he supported Mr.. Bryan. Soon after
that memorable campaign he returned
to the republican party and last year
was delegate to the convention thai.

Mr.. Kearns is easily the youngest
millionaire in Utah, and is probably the
richest man in that state. Last year
he and his wife gave to the Catholic
church an orphans home that cost &c.,

| shown spirit of true philanthropy.

While the senatorial fight in Utah was
exteremly bitter this year and specific
