WILL TREAT WATER.
Santa Fe Constructing New Plant at
Dodg e City.

At Dodge City the Santa Fe has COM
menced the erection of a plant for
treating water to remove the incrust-
ants which have proven so detrimental
to the boilers of its locomotives, the in
stitution to be operated by the Ken
nicott Water Softener company of Chi
cago which has promised to take charge
of a number of these plants along the
line. The one at Dodge City will have
a capacity of 5000 gallons an hour
There are to be three others. One at
Syracuse, Kan. whose output viii be
1000 gallons hourly: at Lamar, Col, A.
600; and at La Junta. Col, $500 gallons.
The chemicals used in removing the
destructive constituents are lime and
sodium carbonate but entire plant is an
elaborate one. 1t is probable that this
is move which will not end until all
along the Santa Fe lines places for
treating the water used in the engine
boilers are built The cost is great, but
the expense of keeping fiues and boiler
parts in repair is an item one of the
largest which the western railroads
have to pay but which she does not
confront so strongly the lines of the
east.

How 20 Make ThSm--TomatO Plants

How 20 Make ThSm-T0matO Plants
Ready For the Field.
In making cold frames two important
points should be observed: (D They
should have a pitch Of about six inches.
in order 20 carry on the water. and (2l
the soil should be well manured, say q
ton OF stable manure 10 twenty by o
foot sashes. This length or bed iSvery de-
sirable. as there are 10 corners and no
crosspieces 10 obstruct the light. After
the manure is in care should be taken
TO make It perfectly smooth, so that the
depth OF soil (about five inches) may be
uniform. as different depths OF soil will
cause a variable growth and a larger
proportion OF poorer plants. besides
making the bed very uneven.
The soil should be raked down level,
the sash put on and the bed allowed 10
remain at least two days to settle and
become warm before the plants are in
troduced. When tomato plants are
ready to be set, the bed should be stir
red to destroy any weed seeds and then
marked Off in checks four or, prefer
aDly, nNe lncneS eacn way.
After plants are placed IN the bed
their subsequent development will de-
pend very largely upon the care given
to them. In a general way the main
precautions 10 be observed are: Not 10
keep the plants too warm and to give
them air and water when necessary.
Too little air and too much water have
a tendency TO make tender plants, al
though, on the other hand, If given too
little water they are retarded in their
growth and seem never to be able 10
recover from the check.
When the weather becomes warm.
the sashes should be entirely removed
on clear days. I'm order that the plants
may be gradually hardened for setting
in the open field. IL is desirable to al
low the beds to be entirely open all
night a few times previous 10 setting.
II proper attention is given TO tomato
plants during this critical period. they
should be ready for the field from the
1st to the 10th OF May. They should be
from u TO Is Inches in height. with
strong, well fibered stalks as thick as
the finger, with number OF crown
blossoms and numerous side branches.
Let everything in the garden be plant
ed In long rows. The long rows make
| II possible for us to do most of the
work with a horse.
Onion seed for growing, according to
the new onion culture. may be sown al
the close OF March.
Peppers may be sown late IN March
Plant peas as soon as the ground csu
be worked.
J Sow spinach for an early crop.
