NEW ROAD FOR UTAH.

Capital IS waiting in New York for a
chance to build railroad to the mines
of Grand county, Utah. The parties who
are interested in the scheme have
watched the mining interests Of that
county for :avetdl yGrs and they be-
lieve that for the next two years Utah is
going to lead in railroad construction:
They have kept in touch with several
mining men, among them Professor w.
II. Tibbals of this city The advantages
of such a road to the mining and indus
trial interests of that part of the state
are believed to be most promising
The capitalists believe that road down
the Grand river, tapping the rich La Sal,
Blue and Henry mountains, would make
a paying investment almost from the
start. 1t opens a field as rich as the
Tonopah district and efforts are being
put forth to get the La Sal mining inter
ests in such shape that the railroad en-
terprise will receive all encouragement.
1t is believed the road could be easily,
cheaply and economically built, taking
Grand Junction as the starting point 1t
would follow the Grand River valley to
Miners basin and cover a distance OF
sixty-ffve miles. opening up southeastern
Utah and some Of southwestern Colorado.
1t is believed several substantial towns
along the way would follow.

A REVOLUTION IN FARMING.
In a Year of Drouth Harvested 142
Bushels of Potatoes An Acre.


Bushels of Potatoes An Acre.
Charles NJ Harper in Review of Re
views)
In 1894, year of widespread drouth.
South Dakota farmer. II. w. Campbell,
who had been experimenting in filling his
claim, surprised his neighbors by harvest
ing a crop of potatoes that averaged 142
bushels an acre on thirty-two acres. while
those on adjoining farms were nearly
failure. He gave as his guide in con-
queripg the semi-arid conditions a varia-
ton from the usual method of tillage.
Ordinarily the farmer turns over the fur
row with the pillow, and cultivates the
top only sufficiently to insure the destruc-
ton of weeds. Mr.. Campbell's plan was
to pillow very deep, and by means of spe-
cially constructed implements, pack the
bottom of the furrow. The top he kept
well cultivated, approaching as closely as
possible to making fine dust over the en-
tire field. Even when there were no
weeds showing. the cultivation was con-
tinued, the object being to form blan-
ket of fine soil above the seed bed and
so retain to the end of the season
greater portion than usual of the rainfall,
somewhat limited in that longitude The
theory was simple and the practice easy.
1t has gained a widespread following.
and is becoming one of the accepted prin-
ciples of the farming of the new west.
the natural rain waters will be absorbed
readily into the ground, that they will
be held there by the packing of the bot
tom of the furrow slice, and that undue
evaporation will be prevented by the
stratum of dust above.
Over the semi-arid region, where the
rainfall is only about twelve inches
year. little or no moisture falls after the
middle of June until autumn Then it is
that the corn withers, the wheat shrivels
and the fruit trees lose their strength.
But it is noticed that if quantity of
coarse sand be scattered over a bit OF
soil. no matter how dry the summer,
there will always be beneath it moist
earth. So it was argued that if the bot
tom of the Dlowed surface could be
packed to retain the spring rains and the
top of the field could by frequent har-
rowing be kept in a sandIike state OF
fineness. the full value of the rainfall
might be utilized. The flood of muddy
waters that formerly rushed away to-
ward the sea after every rain ceases. for
the rains have gone into the ground
where they fell 1t is a new condition,
and one that appeals to the farmer with
great force.

WHEN BoSEY WON.
Newspaper Man Who Lost His
Money, Saved by Office Boy.
(Pittsburg Timesl

His friends call him "Bosey,'' because
he once lived in town that has a name
sounding like that, and he is credited
with having quite fund of dry humor
himself. He is newspaper man, but
happened to be working on sheet which
was supporting Haymaker in the recent
campaign for city recorder. Like ali
of his tribe and profession, ''Bosey'' is
very loyal to the sheet on which ne
works and he believed implicitly that
it was on the right tack. He also OWNED
that it had the best political reporter
west of the Alleghanies and to him
''Bosey' pinned his faith. This political
seer was making predictions of the ava
lanche with which Haymaker was GO
ing to come down from his perch on
top of the Hays people, and "Bosey"
thought there was an easy way in which
to make enough money to pay the Feb
ruary rent and also the incidental gas
bills that were to bulk so big.
"Bosey" is the sort of fellow who pre-
fers to commune with himself. and so
his pow-wows resulted in his taking all
his money out of the bank and plaster
ing ii over the city on Haymaker. Then
he sat back with one, of his inimitable

Charles Gloyd Wants $4,000 For
His Loss.

His Loss.
Charles GlOyd values his right arm at
$4,000. This is the amount he is suing to
recover from the Southern Pacific rail-
road company. GlOyd was d brakeman
employed on the road. About a year ago
he was making a coupling, and when
the slack came his arm was caught and
crushed so badly that it had to be taken
off between the elbow and the shoulder.
An action for damages followed. and tho
case yesterday took up the entire day in
the federal court.
Both sides are trying TO show that the
accident was due to carelessness. The
injury was received ct a point of the road
where there is Il heavy grade. In order
to get d large train to the top it has to
be uncOupled in the middle and part of
it taken at a time. The trains are usu-
ally broken at the same places. The
train on which Gloyd was working was
uucoupled near an open culvert and the
plaintiff claims that it increased the dam
ger of the work and that ne could not
get around so well. The defendants are
trying to show that the plaintiff did not
exercise the proper amount of care. The
case Will be resumed this morning.
