VIII you please give me a remedy for
pest that is destroying my vegetables2 1

ishes. lettuce and spring turnips. About
ten davs ago 1 noticed my salad began to
look scorched. ] examined IL and found
It was being destroyed by the kind of in
sect that enclose for you to see. 1 also

and the insects have begun killing it. /
am troubled a great deal every year, but
not so early. I was advised to put wood
ashes on my vegetables, but it is no good.
Some pa0ple call these insects Yankee
bugs. Answer soon.
Answer: II you had mixed a small guam
tity Of kerosene oil with the ashes, good
results would have been secured, but an
application of ashes alone will have but
little effect in checking the attacks of in
sects. specimens of which you send me.
Your best remedy will be found in the
kerosene emulsion made according to the
formula given below. 1t depends alto
gether upon the kind of insect that is CIV
ing you trouble, as to the insecticide TO be
applied. Your quickest remedy would be
the Paris green solution, but as you VIII
want to prepare the salad soon for the
table, It would not be advisable to use
poisons. The kerosene and milk emulsion
formula for large plant bugs, larvoe and
beetles, is made up as follows:
Kerosene oil, 2 gallons; sour milk, gal
Ion. Mix and churn rapidly for minutes.
Then mix with 20 gallons of water and stir
thoroughly Apply the emulsion to your
plants with a spray pump or common
tin bucket with spraying nozzle attached.
A light application will be sufficient, as
the application retains its efficiency for
about two weeks.

To the Editor Of The Journal:
Would it not be coed idea TO make

caldon is entirely too crowded for the pur-

the present location is entirely inadequate
for the purpose. What we need is location

the party in 1904.
Some of the strangers from the Demo-
cratic fold have declined to do this and
in the counties where those rules have
been adopted they will not be allowed to
vote. The Populsts will not have a state
ticket this year, and on this account many
of them are anxious to get into the Dem
ocratic election.
1t is said that many POpulists are sup
porting Query on account of his anti
corporation and anti-railroad planks. The

Georgia. but since the last time they had

changed to Hampton avenue, and The Post
approves of the idea. Charleston is very con-
servative, but we sincerely trust that in this
instance the old town will consent to make
even such an innovation as altering the time

is meaningless now, while nothing that the city
could do would be too great an honor to the

be extracted. Modern machinery and scientific methods ofore extrac- tion have changed all that, and the ores the old antiguoS passed in their search for those they could reduce, have enriched many modern miner operating with improved machinery and scientific processes.
 Among those who went into So nora with the new wave of enter prise that followed from the north and spread all over the state, were Davis Richardson and his three brothers-Frank, w. E., and L. E. Richardson. With a long experi- ence in mining and milling in Colo rado and New Mexico, they were just the kind of men needed, and they found there rich and virgin field open to them. Occupied at in the service of some of the early companies operating there, they proved themselves valuable men wherever placed. But they kept casting about for openings to oper- ate upon their own account, and did more or less prospecting through the country. Their attention had been called to La Bufa group of mines, and in 1896 they acquired that property, which they set about developing. Later they purchased the Santa Rosa group, but their

ruins of habitations, which show they were cities of goodly size, the old ruined churches were certainly built for congregations much larger, the extensive workings of their mines show that large numbers of miners and other laborers were employed, and the records of vast treasure transmitted each year to the City of Mexico, all go to show there was a boundless and unremit- ting activity through long period of time. Order was preserved and the region carefully policed by the military forces of the King of Spain. With the war for inde- pendence the troops were with drawn and the region left unpro- tected. In 1925 there was a great Apache uprising, and for more than fifty years the region was continu- ally harrassed and harried by the red devils. All business came 10 a standstill. Many prosperous camps were completely ohliterated, and those which did survive that terri ble time dwindled to but shadows of their former importance.
 In 1884 the joint operations of the American and Mexican soldiery finally ran to earth and received the surrender of the last depreda- tory band of Apaches, and they

have instituted development work upon an extensive scale.
 ANTIGUA MINES.
 Like La Bufa, Prieta and other mines owned by the Bufa Mining, Milling x Smelling Company, all of these properties are aatiguos, i. e.: were worked by the early Spaniards and their descendants through POO and 250 years of Spanish occupa- tion.
 Many of the rich mines of the region were worked by the Span iards right up to the time of Mex ican Independence, in 1921. Every thing goes to show that the Spaniards had in Sonora very extensive and populous colony. Little towns scattered through the mountains are surrounded by tn

principal work has been done at La Bufa. They sank a shaft 300 feet deep to get below the antigua workings, into the sulphide ores which the dntiguos could not re- duce. Within sixty days after striking that ore they had taken out and shipped sufficient that the net product from the smelter re- turns repaid to them all the money expended in prospecting and dew elopment, and in the following sixty days sufficient ore was extracted to pay the purchase price of the prop erty. Their later operations in the Santa Rosa group returned results equally gratifying.

Not long since THE OASIS editor, Mir. Allen T. Bird, of Nogales, while out in the Sahuaripa district of Sonora, looking over region won derfully rich in mineral resources, paid visit to the properties and reduction plant of the Bufa Mining, Milling x Smelling Company, near the towns of Santa Rosa and San Nicolas, in the rich and famous district mentioned.
 During a number of years MT. Bird had been conversant with the big mine called "La Bufa," having

books of the reduction works at El Paso. Only the first grade ores were shipped. The second grade were jigged at the mine, and the product transported to the mill at Santa Rosa, which was bought by the owners, and there concentrated or treated by lixiviation, according to the character of the ore. In that way, in the prosecution of 5000 feet of development work upon La Bufa alone there was taken out sufficient ore to pay all the cost of extraction, transportation and re- duction and yielded $175,000 in dividends. And the work done has exposed, ready for extraction and stoping, ores of the value of
 ONE MILLION DOLLARS,
 And upon the dump of La Bufa mine there is today ready for mill ing and shipping ores which will approximate $l25,000 in value.
 The development work upon the Santa Rosa group approximates 5000 feet, and the value of the ore in sight is about $100,000, while up to the present time $125,000 worth has been extracted, and returns to that amount rendered.

 The region bears all indications of richness and permanence. The

While there he spent several days in the vicinity. making thorough exam ination of the properties, their methods of working. geological character of the region, etc.
 These properties, to be herein described, are situated about half a days ride beyond the Yaqui river, at the crossing near La Barranca coal field They are in the imme- diate vicinity of La Trinidad, one of the greatest and richest mines in Mexico, whose output has mounted up into the millions. To the south west days ride are the rich mines at La Dura, now, and many years past successfully and profitably operated by Mir. K. A. Hartman, of Los Angeles, California. Eastward another days ride are the famous Mulatos gold mines, recently pur- chased for one million dollars gold by a strong Pennsylvania corpora
 tion. And northward about the same distance are the Cieneguita mines, recently bought by com pany of Phoenix capitalists, who

FORMER METHODS CRUDE.

Aside from the Indian troubles, another reason for abandonment by the Spaniards of rich mines with great bodies of high grade ores, lay in the fact that their methods were crude and limited in their ap- plication. The sciences of metall- urgy and chemistry were in their infancy; only ores most easily worked could be successfully treat ed, and millions of tons of high grade rock were left uncovered, standing in the stopes, or thrown over the dumps, experience having taught that their values could not
