donment of these farms as sources of revenue or as industrial enterprises The ambitious Yankee youth was not content to eke out an existence from the New England hills when once his ears caught the hum of the wheels of industry in Lowell, in Lynn, in Provi- dcnce, in Portland, and other centers Of mercantile and manufacturing avtiv- ity.
 Some new and very interesting facts pertaining to the abandonment of farms in other sections of the union however, are brought out by Professor Milton Whitney Of the department Of agriculture in a special report upon this subject Many farms have been aban- doncd in the south particularly in South Carolina, because of exhaustion of the soil. The trouble and expense of clearing the stones off the New En- gland fields and the opening up of the great corn and wheat producing states of the central west and northwest has had as much to do with the abandon ment of the New England farms, per haRs. as the attractions of the New En- gland factories. For much the same reasons many farms in the south have been abandoned, except that it was net matter of clearing off stones, but 6 question of restoring the fertility of the soil by bringing about chemical changes necessary to the support of plant life. In the rice laRds~ of the south the ex- pense of bringing about these condi- tions has been so great in many locali- ties as to operate against the continu- ance of the culture of the lands. Many land owners in fact have given up the reclama tion of what were once fertile and well cultivated soils
 It is the opinion of Professor Whitney that soil exhaustion has a remedy in scientific treatment of the soil. and that it can be but a question of time when abandoned farms will be reclaimed by edecting such changes in the physical and chemical conditions as will encOur- age that natural weathering" of the soil which will supply it with elements for the support of plant life.

New England Go. Rushing Work-A
 Chance for Drillers.

Wood Poland and Charley Nelson who are interested in some valuable claims in the north end of the Green lee district, came in from their camp yesterday and report a strike of con- siderable importance, which was re- gently made on claim belonging to MT. Poland. shaft has been sunk to a depth of 1O0 feet, which is all in ore. A cross cut was then run 14 feet with out reaching the wall. Careful sam pies of the cross cut give the value of the ore at per ceLt copper, from $7 to S14 gold and from six to nine ounces silver. This would be big gold mine in any country, aside from the other values of the ore. which makes a good showing for either a copper or a silver mine. Poland and Nelson have done a vast amount of work on their claims during the past ten years. and are well deserving of the success which is about to crown their efforts. They have a a large amount of good ore in sight in several of their claims, some of them showing bodies of twenty per cent cop per and all carrying more or less gold Another United Verde will some day be found in the Greenlee district.
 The New England Copper Company recently installed two electrical drills. They have another drill on the ground and three more on the road. They are finding trouble in securing experienced men to operate the drills The wages paid are $3.5O for mucking and $4 for running the drill. The company is willing to give good men, who have had experience with machinery. an oppOT- tunity to learn to handle the drills. but of course they prefer experienced men. Men who think they can hold down the situation should call on or address the general manager of the company, A. F Ayling. Clifton, Arizona.
 J. C. Smith and T. A. Fulton. who have a most promising gold property near the steam laundry. have com menced development work on their claims. Ii is their intent to take out q car load of ore and ship it to E! Paso for treatment, which will give them good idea of it's general value. Some of their ore is fabulously rich, running many thousands of dollars to the ton. There will be some big gold mines found in this section one of these days. and perhaps Smith and Fulton will be the lucky men.
 Chas. F.. Stevens, superintendent of the Stevens company. was down from the mines al Metcalf this week. and reports development work being pushed, with most favorable results.
 P. r. Crowley, one of the hustling and lucky Metcalf miners. was down this week and brought good reports from the new camp.-COpper Era

STRIKE ON THE MODERN.

Some of the finest ore the Modern Copper Company has encountered was struck on the two hundred foot level yesterday. The ore is literally filled with native copper. which runs very high. carrying some free gold. The body was encountered much earlier than was expected, as the company is drifting toward the contact, which is q few feet ahead.
 President Centers and Superintend- ent Harsh were in with a sack of the ore, which was some of the finest pro- duced from the surrounding prospects. There was a good deal of stock sold yesterday and the directors will raise the price in the near future. They are working three shifts day on the prop erty, and will add a larger force to sink at once. The owners of the mine are greatly ncoUraged.-Bisbee Review.

SLOW OLD LONDON.

English conservatism, that stubborn spirit of opposition to adopting new methods, is keeping the great city of London behind the age in many of the conveniences of modern life that the progress of science has given 10 other cities. Strange as it may seem, there is no telephone connections between the police stations there, and it is said that the work of the department was seriously hindered lately by the absence of such service at Scotland yard. the city's police headquarters. Few of the private houses have a telephone, and the fire department will not allow pri- vate alarm connections with the fire stations

ported article shall be assessed at the highest possible rate of duty. It would have been quite as rational to rate th, wood leg as playing cards. the duty on which is 1O0 per cent. and ii would have been an easier construction of the law to classify it as bottles or bar room fixtures, with their higher duties. In the prohibition state of Maine a man with a wooden leg was convicted re- gently of filling that hollow member with riotous liquor. which he sold at stiff retail rates to the bibulous. At the heel he had a faucet to draw of the drink. For months this portable dram shop spread hilarity and black eyes over a wide territory, as the proprietor limped along the road to wealth. IL was only when he allowed himself to consume too much of his own stock that he lost his discretion. and soon after his liberty and his wooden leg. It would be quite as sane to base a de- cision on such Q use of the article as to follow the usual mysterious methods by which the customs officers classify articles not specially provided for in the schedules.-New York Times.

 brought back less than he took away, and it would be absurd to tax him as if his possessions had been enlarged from
 the rich spells of the European mar kets. This was before the recent per sonal effects ruling of Secretary Shaw.
 The inspector. although confident that
 the leg should be pulled, could not say
 how it should be classified; and the ap-
 praisers, collector and deputies were just as uncertain. The department at Washington merely directed attention
 to a number of irrelevant rulings and
 left the decision to the New York office. stipulating only that one trousers leg should be assessed as coverings at the same rate of duty, whatever that might be.
