RICE CULTURE

after the harvest. Then it is re-plowed
 if necessary and narrowed in tn
 spring before planting. In these op
 erations gang-plows, and disc-harrow
 with from three to six mules or horse
 are used. As there is from six t eight months to do this work, there i
 no need for hurry. So it may be care
 fully and thoroughly done. Mex
 comes the planting, using seed drill' made or adjusted for the purpose This work may be spread over iron two to three months, making one mai properly equipped, able to handle al
 least one hundred acres. The ground should be rolled just before seeding
 because after planting the use of ami
 mals on the field should be prohibited
 as they tramp much of the seed tc such depth as to materially affect the stand From one to three bushels of seed are applied to each acre. Drill ing requires less seed than broadca st. ing. because the seeds are all planted at uniform depth. This applies also to all kinds of grains. After seeding, if the soi is not moist enough to bring the rice up properly, light flooding IS demanded. When the rice is to $ inches high, it should be flooded 10 a depth of 3 10 0 inches continuously until time to withdraw the water sc the ground may harden ready for the harvest. The more uniform the depth of water maintained, the more uniform the period of ripening. It is important era small fields, each 10 be separately planted and separately flooded. This prevents too great a rush at harvest ing. These fields should be of such size that each one may be planted within four days at most Each field should be flooded as uniformly as pos sible, that the ripening may be uni form. Rice should be harvested as soon as the straw begins to turn vel low. Il cutting is delayed many heads may fall to the ground, and the har- vester will cut the straw, leaving the grain on the ground; also if cutting is not promptly done, the fully ripened grain falls out and is wasted.
 The bi-products of rice are valuable and may be used i'll variety of ways.
 The straw feed for stock, rice straw is about equal to the best prairie hay, containing +,72 per cent of crude protein; S2.ci per cent. of carbo-hy- drates, and 1.57 per cent. fats. When well cured and preserved all kinds of hay. eating stock are very fond of it and will eat large quantities of 1t. Dr.. Stubbs, Director of the Louisiana EX- pertinent station, says rice straw IS worth at the average price of hay for a period of years, S9.15 per ton. In the rice fields thousands of tons are burned every year because it is i'll the way. This emphasizes the fact that cattle should be fed on the rice farms, or straw baled and shipped to the nearest and best market. Some of the rice farmers have adopted the former course. and after the rice harvest large herds of improved cattle can be seen in the stubble fields and i'll pens, GOV ering their ribs with the digested nu- trients of rice straw. The estimates herein contained are of the contained

Remove the cause of rheumatism-no outward application can. Take them.

The boy Nunez, whose left hand and arm were so badly injured some four weeks ago by the explosion of double barreled shotgun, is doing nicely. Why he was not killed by the explosion is one of the mysteries. The gun was one of the old style mUzzle l0aders and had been allowed to rust Uoiil the barrels had become crystallized. Nunez had loaned the gun, loaded, to another boy, and he put another load in each barrel. He then returned it to Nunez without having fired off either of the brrrels. Some time after, Nunez, seeing there were no caps on, supposed the barrels were empty and put still another charge in each He then pulled the trigger and both barrels exploded, shattering his left hand and wrist so badly that it was necessary to amputate the arm within about three inches of the elbow.

Danger Signal in the Alps.

According to the international agree ment recently made in regard to the danger signal in the Alps, SIX shots or movements of light will be recognized as a call for assistance. In cases of stomach, liver and bowel troubles, it is always wise to heed the first danger signal, and give Nature the assistance she is calling for. The best medicine to aid the stomach in digesting the food, to stir up the liver, or to open up the bowels, is Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. It is backed by record of fifty years of cures. Be sure to try the Bitters if you are sufferer from indigestion, dyspepsia, fatulency, constipation or bilousness. Our private stamp is over the neck of the bottle.

A Silly Thing tO Do.

The people of Ar;Yona never did a more foolish thing than when they elected J. F. Wilson to con- aIthough it was by slender majority. They were never more un- wise than when they listened to Mark Smith's advice 10 elect W;lstn. It was represented that the Oklahoma elec- tion was going by de;au7t: that the democrats were going on hunting parties ' and would give the repub- licaps clear field. and that the repuh- licaus should do the same for uhe demo- crats in Arizona. Perhaps a large nun- Der of republicans in this tereitory were silly enough to believe this: we do not know, except as to few. But the indifference :" of the Oklahoma democrats is shown by the election re- turns. The republican candidate, Me Guire, is elected, if elected at all. by a scant 900 votes out of SO,0O0, and the democratic candidate threatens con- test.-Phoenix Republican.

Socialism and Politics.
YuMA. Ariz.. Nov. IL. 1902

l UNA, ArlZ., NOV. II, 1JU-.
 EDITOR SENT1NEL:-My friend, N. c. Nelson of Palomas, advanced reasons in the columns of the Sun to show why the SOC alists would be justified in vot ing the democratic ticket. Now that the "ball is over" 1 wish to say few words in reply.
 MT. Nelson asks the socialists. by way of preface, to ''wait until I get through before you set down on me with both feet" It is we'll known that up on the Gila Nature supplies it's de- 6ciency in bridges with wonderful development of feet, and which can be used for many and wonderful things. Here in Yuma, however, when we ''sit down on any one" we do it in the old fashioned way.
 Now for Mr. Nelson's argument. l fully concur in his estimate of the value of direct legislation: and if this princi- pie shall ever be enacted into law it will be through the agitation of social ists and other reformers.
 MT. Nelson says ''the democrats are promising direct legislation. He is mistaken. The territorial platform is silent on the subject, the county plat form only recommending it, but the nominees were not pledged to vote for it. A bill of this nature was passed by the territorial legislature, which was democratic, four years ago, and was promptly vetoed by Gov. Hughes, who was appointed by Cleveland. The so- cialists of Yuma have requested Gov. Brodie to do better by the people. His party, however, gets behind the time honored custom of keeping the public in ignorance of the views of the eXecu- tive pending legislative action.
 In regard to Mr. Nelson's little pro- gramme of capturing the democratic organization, there are these objec- tions: (1) If the socialists were strong enough and should do so they would capture something of doubtful value an empty name. The democrats would be where they were in 1S96 in rival democratic organization or in the republican party. The bird would have flown, the nest would be left, and so would the socialists. @ Socialists have no business in the democratic party. Then why attempt to capture it's organization? Would Mr. Nelson justify the Baptists in trying to capture the Methodist organization and name: Democracy stands for as little govern ment as possible; socialists believe in more than anybody" The demo- cratic idea of freedom is political: the Socialistic is industrial by means Of political freedom. The democratic policy is, simmered down, "every man for himself and the devil take the hind most" The latter meets with good success.
 For the above reasons every consid eration points to the necessity for a new party. There is wiGe gulf be- tween either of the old parties and the socialists, compared to which the differ ence between the two former becomes little more than an imaginary line.
 Mr. Nelsons fears that socialism will bring "disorder and chaos" can be dis missed without comment, for they are not entitled to serious consideration.
