BEEF PRODUCTION
IN STATE OF GEORGIA
Extract From Excellent Ar
ticle Advocating Same.
FARMER SHOULD SUCCEED WELL

Less Drudsery in Raising Stock Than
In clerkins In Bank or Selling
Groceries and Dry Goods, and the
Profits are Sure.
We wish to give here an extract
from an article on beef production in
Georgia by Professor c. L. Willough-
by, of the Georgia Experiment Sta
ton, which appears in the November
number of the southern Farm Maga-
zine: Il am convinced that the aver
age white farmer in Georgia has pl3n-
ty of intelligence to Aucceed with
stock, if he will turn his mind in that
direction. One great difficulty is in
securing good help, for l must admit
the negro shows very little aptitude in
hind the mule, because neither OF
them SENS able to hurt the other, but
the blacks who show ability in raising
cattle are so few and far between that
it is impossible to depend upon them
without close personal supervision.
The best plan Is for the farmer to
take hold of this matter himself. There
is less drudgery in it than clerking in
bank or dealing out groceries and
calico, and the profits are as certain
as in cotton growing. Banks and
merchants will furnish money and sup
plies just as readyily with cattle for
security as the same number of acres
in cotton. The question Of men for
the work, therefore, resolves itself
into a question Of whether the Geor-
gia farmer will see his opportunity
and make the effort to take advantage
Of it."

ClvllizatlOn's Blight.

The natives of the Artic Coasts
of Alaska and vicinity are dying
with measles and other diseases,
at a frightful rate.
When the natives began to wear
civilized mans clothing and drink
whiskey, then began their de-
cline. Diseases unheard of at
tackled them, and, not knowing
how to care for themselves, grip
and every conceivable malady
made their appearance among
them and spread along the coast
with appalling results.

A STARTLING SURPRISE.

A very few could believe in looking
at A. T. Hoadley, a healthy, robust
blacksmith of Milden, Ind that for
ten years he suffered such tortures
from rheumatism as few could en-
dure and live. But wonderful
change followed his taking Electric
Bitters. 1.-TWO buttles wholly cured

10 per cent of ammonia. An enor-
nous and annually incI Easing amount
is shipped every year. The amount
exported every year to Europe and
America is about one million tons.
Method of Use.
The material has a great number
of uses besides it's use as fertilizer.
1t is in the manufacture of nitrate of
potash, which is needed to make gun
powder and fireworks; it is also used
to make nitric acid, is an essential in
the manufacture of sulphuric acid, up
On which tle whole superphosphate O:
avoid phosphate industry depends, be-
sides a great many other manufacture
ing processes. Its great Importance
as a fertilizer depends upon its high
percentage of nitrogen and it's COM
plete solubility in water, thus being
Immediately available as plant food,
the nttrogent in it being already in
the form of a nitrate, the form in
which plants prefer to take most of
their nitrogen. The nitrate of soda
being readils and freely soluble in
water, is ready for appropriation as
plant food as soon as it is
put into the soil Hence it
is evident that the best way to use
it is by application as a top dressing
Immediately before or after rain,
usually in the spring, when the plant
Is up and needs good send-off to de-
velop growth of stalk and foliage.
Used in this way, the results are very
sure and very striking.
Sulphate of Ammonia.
One other important inorganic
source Of nitrogen is the salt known
as sulphate of ammonia. 1t is pro-
duced chiefly as a by-product in the
manufacture of illuminating gas from
coal; the gas Goals all contain small
percentage of nitrogen; when subject
ed to dry distillation In retorts, the nj
trogen is driven off in the form of am
monia gas, and is finally absorbed in
sulphuric acid, from which 1t is crys-
tallized as sulphate of ammonia. This
product usually contains about 2032
per cent OF nitrogen, when purified,
but If sold unpurified as brown sui
phate Of ammonia, it may not contain
more than Is per cent of nitrogen. Sui
phate of ammonia is freely soluble in
water, and has this advantage over
nitrate of soda, that it does not leach
out Of the soil so readily as nitrate Of
soda does. and NAV therefore be ap-
piled with other fertilizers in the fail
to fall crops without fear of serious
loss through teaching during the fall
and winter. have not mentioned al
of the various kinds of nitrogenous
fertilizer materials, but have sketched
nearly all of the commercial fertilizers
materials the commercial fertilizers
sold in the State of Georgia are made

terial we discuss will be the "phos
nhates." John NJ McCandless.

Work on the Leon Lake Reservoir l.
being pushed at the present time as fast
as possible, with quite a force OF men.
The dam at the outlet is twenty five
feet high now. but will be raised TO forty
feet If it is found that there is enough
water available to fill the lake TO that
depth. A new ditch is being construc-
tedfrom one OF the tributaries of Plateau
Creek that will give quite an additional
supply OF water to the lake and also
give the company a new reservoir site.
10 order 10 make this new supply Of
water available. cut must be made
some 800 feet long and in some plaoas
ten feet deep through rock. The new
reservoir will cover about twenty acres
and will be about a mile and half from
the lake. This will give the company .
much larger watershed TO draw from
and will increase the storage facilities
greatly. Leon lake when full will be
about mile long and half mile vide,
aud it is estimated will hold twent,
billion cubic feet Of water. 4 greater
capacity than the combined reservoirs
OF the Surface Creek Ditch 4 Resorsoir

The Colorado Democrats got on their
feet by fusiug with the populists and all
radical elements in politics. gathering
under their copious wings all sorts and
conditions OF political elements and fac.
tions imaginable. Such a conglomerate
political party was never before seen 10
the history OF the country. Now these
elements with which they fused have
been cast out and accorded no consider
ation or courtesy. Tine might be all
right as a political move. but when
after all this is done the Democrats. try
with honeyed words to persuade all OF
these elements to abandon their princi-
Piles aud vote with them Just to beat the
Republicans the condition becomes
laughably ridiculous. Why should
Populists, Socialists and others vote for
the Democratic nominees rather than
for the Rsrublicanss The fact is that
il they are honest 10 their convictions
they will vote for their own party nomi-
neee. II they have any preference in
the matter they will prefer the Repub-
ilicane. for the Democrats have treated
them in an insulting manner.-Salids

The great advantage OF our railroad
is being felt by our people in the ship
ment OF apples the rate being only five
cents per box from Paonia TO Delta
against fifteen cents paid for hauling
last year, giving the grower clear profit
OF ten cents per box above the regular

.ng Company. in which P. J.. Nash of
Ridgway is one Of the stockholders Mr.
Nash is superintendent OF the property
and has had force OF men at work for
the past two years driving d crosscut
tunnel TO cut their vein. The vein was
cut about three weeks ago. since which
time drifting has been in progress on a
twofoot body OF ore that runs good in
silver. copper. lead and about Sl4 in

two or three cars will be shipped this
season ae the mine is above timber line
and it will be difficult 10 get the ore to
the railroad after snow begins to fall.
The development Of the property will be
pushed along as rapidly as possible dur
ing the winter and no ore mined only as
IS absolutely necessary in development.
Should the volume and values hold good
as the work proceeds a small mill for
