BEST TINE TO CUT ALFALFA.

The conclusions reached by Mr.. Mills
of the Utah Station as the results of
feeding experiments, are that the most
rapid gains are made ON alfalfa cut just
before the blossoms appeared, and the
least gain on such as is cut week after
full bloom. The hay cut at the inter-
mediate period of full bloom is better
than the latter, but quite inferior to the
former. Mr.. Mills represents the gains
as 100 for hay cut before bloom, n for
hay cut at full bloom aud 6S for hay cut
one week later. The two earlier cut
tings were eaten more readily than the
latest cutting. Mr.. Mills further states
pound for pound, the values of the cut
tings stands as follows: Before bloom,

SIMPLE METHOD OF
MAKING ORE TEST.

Prospectors, when out of reach of
assayers to test their ore, can by the
following method determine whether
the rock to be tested carries any min.
eral or not:
When you desire to make the test
pulverize the rock very fiue; then take
one part of the pulp and two parts of
common gunpowder; mix them thor.
oughly together in your hands; then
form it in cone or pyramid and let it
dry in the sun or near fire. When
dry set the cone on a fiat stone and put
live coal on the top of the cone.
When it has sizzled and sputtered it
self out the mineral, if there was any
in the rock. it will be found in the
the shape of a button on the stone.

Saving Cyanide.

The regeneration of cynaide solutions
by various means is a subject now at
tracing much attention among workers
in that important branch of metallurgy.
This has been successfully accomplish
ed by means of sodium sulphide, and
experiments are now being made to do
this electrolytically, says the Mining
and Scientific Press of San Francisco.
Heretofore there has been much loss Of
cynaide, particularly in weak solutions
and wash waters, but recent discoveries
indicate that the time is not far blatant
when a stock of cynaide will remain a
long time in circulation, like quicksilver
in an amalgamating mill. without seri.

SOUTHERN PACIFIC PENSION PLAN
Several General officers of Company
Will Soon Be Retired.

~
Thirty-five employees of the South
ern Pacific Company who have out.
worn their usefulness in the Kentucky
corporation have been retired from ac-
tive service with the company and
placed on the pension list. There are
no Salt Lake division employees among
those who have been pensioued
1t is is also stated that the following
named general officers are slated for
retirement
Joseph L. Willcut, secretary of the
Central Pacific, the Southern Pacific
and other roads in the Pacific system.
Captain N. T. Smith, treasurer of the
Southern Pacific Company.
T. H. Goodman, general passenger
agent of the Southern Pacific Com.
pany.
Jerome Madden, land agent of the
Southern Pacific Company.
]. NJ. Hanford, paymaster of the
Southern Pacific Company.
E. Black Ryan, tax attorney of the
Southern Pacific Company.
ALI of the above officers are over the
pension age limit of 70 years aud all
have been in the service of the COM
pany for more than the prescribed
twenty years.
Employees who have attained the
age of 20 years and have been in the
service twenty years or over are to re-
ceive pensions ON the basis of / per
cent per annum of the average salary
received for ten years previous to pen.
sioning for each year of service. For
instance, an employee whose pay aver
ages 81 900 per annum for ten years
prior to retirement aud has been in the
service of the company thirty years
would receive pension equal to 30 per
cent of $1,000, or $500 per annum.
Between the ages of 60 and 70years
employees incapacitated for further
work may be retired by the pension
board, provided they shall have been in
the service twenty years or more. The
employees make no contributions to
this fund, the pension being paid in
full by the company and without any
condition. the employees being at lib
erty to engage in other business after
being pensioned should they see fit.
Pensioning those who have grown old
and gray in the service of the South
ern Pacific Company is but following
the lead of such great corporations as
the Pennsylvania. the Illinois Central
and the Chicago and Northwestern
roads, which for some time past have
shown their appreciation of the long
years of faithful service performed by
aged employees by granting them the
privilege of retiring on substantial PEN
sions.

TEXAS FEVER.
Disease Now Prevalent i'm Southern
California and Kansas.

The Texas fever is developing to an
alarming degree on the stock ranches
throughout the county. This peculiar
disease which affects the red corpus
cles of the blood of the infected animal,
causing it to sicken and die in spite of
all the remedies so far tried, is spread
by tick that inoculates the stock. An
odd freak of the disease is that it will
not develop on stock raised on a ranch
where the tick exists, they seemingly
being immune, but new stock brought
into the range takes it Immediately and
large percentage die in fourteen days.
The same thing results when stock
from a range infected with the tick is
taken to a range free from 1.-THE stock
on the latter will take the fever and
die.
A small band of young healthy cat
tie was taken to a ranch few miles
up the coast a short time ago and
twenty five of the band took the fever
and died, while the old stock on the
ranch was not affected. The result is
that the stock cannot be moved from
one place to another without endanger.
ing that which is not immune. There
is law against moving stock known to
have the tick, but it is not observed.
DIR. c. H. Blemer, State veterinarian,
is inspecting the stock in San Luis
Obispo county, where the tick abounds
on the ranges on the coast side of the
mountains.
DIR. Hester of this county is OF the
opinion that concerted crusade Of dip
ping is the only way to free the ranges
of the deadly pest.-Santa Barbara,
