TWO CASES WERE
CONSIDERED YESTERDAY
BY the State Board of Pardons and
Neither Were Recommended to
the Governor for CIemency

BY the State board of Pardons and
Neither Were Recommended to
the Governor for CIemency.
The State Board of Pardons, in ses-
sion at Moundsville, heard arguments
and considered two cases. The first
was the case of Cam Christian, con-
victed of forgery in Mercer county in
January. 1901, and sentenced to two
years. The board recommended that a
pardon be not granted.
The second was that of Mrs Francis
Shut, convicted of murder in the sec
ond degree in Mason county, and sen
fenced in April, 1895, to ten years. The
board made a recommendation unfa-
vorable to her petition. similar rec
ommendation was made in her case in
October so
A number of cases remain yet to be
argued and submitted while a number
are under consideration.

Mining in Villa Grove.

5. ID. Burlington of this city has
just received mining report from
j. Sylvester, who is employed by
the Sangre de Christie Mining,
Milling q Investment company
near Villa Grove in the interest of
Florence parties. He has had
several years experience as a
miner. He reports that R. p,
Harpel, formerly of this city, but
who has recently opened up pay
mine near Villa Grove, has under
taken to build wagon road to the
mines from the matte smell
ter site, an elevation of 1,500 feet
up steep mountain. There is
plenty of ore in sight in the mines
and he claims there is 5000 worth
on the dump.
Mr.. Harper has a good PROPOSE
tion and with his experience in
mining and in handling the ore
with matte furnace he will make
it a;pay.

AGRICULTURE is not yet one of
the important industries of Alaska.
A bulletin just issued by the cen
sus bureau sets forth the fact that
the value of the agricultural pro
duct is only IL 7 cents for each in
habitant of the southern district,
in which all the farms are located.
just twelve farms were reported in
Alaska in 1900, the total area of
which was l59 acres, of which l04
acres were devoted to the cultiva-
tion of vegetables and hay, the re-
mainder being used for pasturage
The total farm products are valued
at $S,046. The total farm wealth
of Alaska was S15,6S6, of which
S2,l96 is invested in live stock.
The immense area of Alaska con-
tains one bull, four oxen, thirteen
dairy cows, five horses, ten swine,
three dogs and l76 chickens.

The coming Sampson -Schley
trial is about the only subject that
by a stretch of the Imagination
can be called Washington news at
present, and apropos of this sub
ject the world is coming more and
more to the conclusion expressed
by Tolstoi in his WAR and Peace"
that generals do not win battles.
This was never truer than in the
Santiago naval victory. 1t was
the years of preparation in ships,
guns and men that made our navy
superior to the Spanish, Just as
training makes the prize fighter
superior to the soft giant of nearly
twice his bulk. But on this occa-
sion bulk as well as training was
with US. A more enlightened age
will bestow its monuments with
more discrimination and we, hap
lessly the least bellicose of peoples,
will sometimes look with wonder
at the squadron of bronze generals
that we have exalted in the public
parks of Washington and say,
"Why these especially?"

A RECENT article printed by a
Georgia farmer contains hint by
which others may perhaps profit.
He is a very successful farmer, but
does not grow cotton as most of
his neighbors do, sowing the
ground that he would use for this
in hay and makes $50 on every
acre of it," getting at least four
good crops each year, He says no
farmer in his section can realize
$50 per acre from cotton. In addi.
ton, he claims there is little labo,
or expense and no risk in hay
John Hyde, the statiscian of the
agricultural department, has re-
turned from tour of the countries
of Europe, which he visited for
the purpose of arranging a system
for the exchange of telegraphic
crop reports. He announces that
his trip WAS complete success,
and that in the near future the
crop reports of the wheat produc-
ing countries of the world will be
exchanged by telegraph.

IT is reported that there is only
one creamery in the United States
Qocated in Iowa. which can make
butter equal to that universally
produced in Denmark, but in no
other country in the world-a but
ter that will stand tropic heat,
melting and solidifying again
without damage as it passes from
warm to cold climates and back
again. Usually, this change en-
tirely destroys the flavor, leaving
the butter like ordinary grease or
oil. The Danes, however, produce
quality which will endure this
ordeal without affecting its flavor
or sweetness, being the only peo-
pie of whom this may be said.
Therefore, it is the popular i'm
preston that some secret process
is used either in the preparation

or packing of their butter. This,
however, is positively denied, it
being asserted that there is no
secret process, no preservatives
used, no chemical change pro-
duced before packing. Neverthe-
less, none of the butter packers
there will allow their factories to
be inspected, thus giving strength

state and treasury departments and
the census office are relating
story in figures of resources, pro-
gress and prosperity more interest
ing to the optimlst than a ro-
nance 1t will be remem bered
that Sir William Crookes, presi-
dent of the British Scientific
association, recently wrote pam
phlet on the possible exhaustion
of the food supply of the world,
especially the wheat crop. He
pointed out that the United States
will, within a short time, become
the main dependence of the world
so far rs wheat is concerned, and
that with the present methods of
farming, which he considers waste
full, the crop will be subject to
scarcity within a hundred years.
Possibly, on reading the report
that the corn crop of the present
year is badly injured by drought,
he or some of his readers may
think that his prophecy is coming
unexpectedly true, for to an En-
glishman corn means wheat, He
refers to our Indian corn as maize.
Such arguments as this prove,
at any rate, that the resources of
this country are vast, for if they
were not, the possibility of famine
would have occurred to everybody
some time ago There is no waste
ful farming in such countries as
Germany, England, China or ia
pan. 1t was once said that the
English farmer hoes each blade of
wheat separately, ties it to a stick,
and then sits on a stump in the
middle of his farm with water
ing pot, ready to attend to any
special blade which needs atten-
tion. When one contrasts the
English farmers grain fields with
the ranches of Dakota. Kansas
and California this statement
scarcely seems hyperbole 1t is
true, however, that we throw away,
in one fashion or another, much
material which might be utilized.
This is wasteful or not, according
to circumstances. The problem
changes with the character and
density OF the population. On a
New England farm, where the soil
is in thin layer on top of a gran
ite foundation, and the crop of
stones is the only one not likely to
be frost bitten, it is necessary to
take care of many odds and ends
which are allowed to go to waste
on a big western fruit ranch where
1t Is necessary to economize the
strength and time of every laborer
In order to prevent the loss of per-
haps thousand dollars worth of
fruit, If this ranch were divided
up into many small holdings, each
having its quota of people to sup
port, the result would probably be
more diversified farming, for each
small farmer would find it to his
advantage to raise his own garden
vegetables, pigs, colts and cattle.
All the members of family can
be employed in some way or other
on such a home farm, whereas they
cannot on large plantation cult
