have no better soil than the hill sides This state of affairs or condition h brought about largely from two causes brought the practice which has existed il the South for years of burning over the woods every year, thus stfoying all decaying vegetable matter; and, second. the enormous rainfall which visits this section.
 In the great Northwest the rainfall varies from % to 40 inches. hardly evei as much as 40 in the sections above re ferred to. While there in the South the rainfall Is as much as 76 inches for some sections. This system of burning over the woods seems to be unwise and espe- cially on our hillside lands. I have frequently noticed in passing through the country many rolling timber lands where fire has cleaned every bit of trash and leaves and the land left bare and have become badly washed even In the woods. There Is another very mys- terious matter to me. Why Is l, so many of our lands will support such a dense growth of timber and wild vegetation, yet when cleared fail to produce crops without being encouraged with the use of fertilizer These are all very inter- esting questions, but whether we will ever be able to solve them to our satis- faction is a problem.
 In order to succeed in soil building we l ItiuSt hfOW SOIuetNlHS tOO Cl tIiC IOun- | dation upon which we are to- build Soils will not remain long if built on a bed of | rock. Then, there as various clays un der or near the surface. The character of these should be studied before com mencing to build upon them. The poor | white putty-like clay is a poor one to build upon. These white, hard pan clay soils are always cold and hard to man. age, will never pulverize, and no mat ter how much fertilizer may be put In them they never prove valuable or pro- ductive, or in other words. never pay 1 for the time expended in improving so 1t is very necessary that everyone should understand, so far, as possible, | the character of the foundation upon which they are to build. AS conditions and soils vary so much no general direc- tions are applicable for all sections or | for all individual wants. but as soil building and manures are so closely all | lied shall treat the two together.

COAL OUTPUT IS FAR SHORT
At Anthracite Mines Shortage Is
10000 Tons Daily.

A Wilkesbarre, Pa, dispatch says:-Not-
withstanding the most determind efforts, the
onerators in the anthracite field have been
unable to get out the normal output of coal
since the resumption of work after the late
strike.
Throughout the region the normal output
before the strike was $50, 900 tons day, but
now only 80, 900 tons are being shipped daily.
This falling off is due to a number of reasons,
chief of which is the condition of the mines
after work was resumed. Immense cave ms,
falls and bookings of passages were encouu
tered by the men when they entered the cham
beers. The lack of men during the strike
caused timbermen, in propping up weak places
to place the supports wherever it came handy,
and in some instances tmbers were put in the
middle of the track. When removed, in one
instance, they caused fall of roof nearly so
feet in length. This has taken time to clear a.
way and it will be some time before manyof the
chambers can be reached, keeping hundreds
of men from reaching their places,
In the cleaning up miners have been forced
to work as laborers, no place being fit for the
cutting of coal. The expansion of the gas
has caused some troublesome breaks and some
of the mines are flooded by reason of the call
ing out of the fremen and pulnpmen.
The continued strike of the men employed
in the Hazleton region by the independent
operators has courtailed the output to the
extent of $1,000 tons day. These mines
could be worked Immediately, as they do not
have to be pumped, but are drained by an
immense tunnel, which takes off the water
and empties it into creek miles away.
