The novice in farming avoids heavy
soils. He thinks Of them as soils hard
to work and as possessing little plant
food Perhaps his bad opinion has
been strengthened By early experiences
in trying to cultivate undralned clay
land. Rightly handled. however. there
are no better soils than the heavy ones.
The first thing to be done in the way
Of ameiioration is to give good drain
age. This lets In both the air and the
frost and conduces 70 friabilily. A
heavy soil filed with water Is a dis
couraging basis on which to attempt
to grow crops. Even the cod is unable
to do its work Where the soil is
saturated to near the surface, the first
cold freezes IT. Ice is formed and the
whole thing becomes, for the time be-
ing. adamant. There IS no breaking
mp OF soil cohesion as Is the case where
the soil is wen drained In that case
the freezing is not of a solid body Of
water. but Of thin films of water
around the soil PARTICLES. The freez-
Ing Of the water films forces the par-
ticles out Of the positions they prevl-
ously occupied and results IN a general
breaKing up Of the texture OF the soil.
lhis takes place in an clay. soils as
wen as in an sandy soils where the
drainage is good. It is thus that heavy
soils. formerly unWofkabie have been
brought under culiiyation
Heavy soils are frequently very rich

soluble and ins0Iuble Fortunate is
the man who, having such land studies
it and learns how to bring out the
wealth that is locked up In it.

Remounts for tho British Army.
Mr. ]. Maclachian Young. NJ. r. C. ~
s., who has acted as veterinary lieu
tenant with the Fife and Forfar Yeo-
manry since March IN last year re-
turned home last week. says the North
British Agriculturist in the course Of
an interview with q representative OF
the press. Mr.. Maclachlan Young gave
an interesting account Of bis adven-
lures. and some very pronounced views
on the subject Of remounts. He holds
that the best animals for work OF the
kind are the Basnto and Burmese DO
nies. Australian and other colonial
breeds are also excellent, but the Hun
garian horses, though very good look
ing. are too soft. while the Argentines
are absolutely useless, and the ordi-
nary British cavalry horse IS too
heavy. There is no reason Why q
moderate sized horse. with a little
blood should not be bred IN England
or Scotland. and such an animal would
be ideal for remount purposes. The
Beers, BE says. must have a great re-
serve Of horses to begin with. but there
Is no doubt they are nov using
mares which in the earlier part OF the
year were in foal. and this has to some
extent increased their supply. but thss
source must also soon be exhausted.

Of January 18th, 1901 The American

growers, large or small. equally. and
we want them all on the membership
roll. It As especially desired that
large attendance be had at the coming
convention at Denver, and any cattle
grower who can possibly come is urged
to do 50. They may be assured that

There are several interested par
ties endeavoring to shift the burden
OF the blame upon the shoulders OF
Sheriff Charles H. Wallis. for con-
ditions which existed during Peach
week. Whoever is spreading such
report is reaching beyond his or
her depth. The fact is that the
sentiment prevailing in business
quarters and among contributors to
the festival fund was to permit con-
siderable latitude, without license.
Mr.. Wallis stood ready to obey the
will of the public or the legally con>
stituted authorities at any time. AS
far as the Midway was concerned,
he had nothing whatever to do.

as he knew It.

There can be one thing said in
favor Of the candidacy of Charles
H. Wallis for sheriff, which is un>
deniably in his favor. Since he first
was elected to office he has never
shown an "all hog" disposition. By
this we mean that Mr.. Wallis has
not created opportunities to fitch
every dollar possible from the
county treasury. While he has ac>
cepted what fees were legally due
him, his disposition and his desire
has been to save expense in the
conduct OF his office, rather than
create it. The records will show
this to be true.

blame there is, it should not fall on
innocent shoulders. Mr.. Wallis IS
no saint, neither an extraordinary
sinner Summed up in his personal
life and career he has about as large
a calendar of virtues as most men
and especially those men who oc>
cupy public position.

DEVELOPMENT OF. WINTER MINING.

Winter mining in this section is yet in expert mental stage, but the results thus far obtained favorable to Nome becoming a. winter as we'll as summer camp,
 Mining was prosecuted last winter to limited extent. A fairly conservative estimate placed the yield from ''wintsr diggngs" at half million of dollars. The work done lass winter was merely tentative, however, but it appears to have been suf cently lucrative to warrant much larger area being worked this wi:der..
 Mining men who have made }, study of 'deep diggings" claim that they be cheaply worked in winter than in the short summer season, for the reason that winter work be prosecuted continuously for seven or eight months of the year. while the summer cannot be considered to last longer than about three months. In.summer too, it is argued that with deep dggings vast amount of worthless dirt mrst be handled before the paystreak is reaehed while in winter the work done need only embrace the pay dirt, tEe non7producve need not be handled. Labor, too, it is claimed be had at cheaper price, as the average prefers lower rate of wages for continuous work the year round, rather than higher rate for, say, three months in the year.
 Another'important consideration to be taken into account in the prosecution of winter mining is the cost of fueL For. reason another fuel has always been high in this section, save at odd times during the season when navigation is open, This, however will be reneded. If winter mining should take on large proportions, it promises now, the men who propose to operate mines will their coal at low price, and they will not, then, be hand capped by being compelled to pay prices that are exorbitant.
 It is probable that the developments of this winter will determine the future of winter mining. How many "old river channels" may be found which crosscut the coantry is not known. Nodoubt there several. One at least has been discovered There will be many others, and fell safe in saying that within the next two or three years Nome will have developed into a.liyely winter camp, while the mer diggngs will have assunaed enormous propor~ tions.
 The time is not far distant when many of the neighboring hills or benches will have disappeared by the hydraulicng process, perhaps, and the thou sands of of tundra land will be made to give up the gold which they contain.
