The Ranch desires suggestions
from it's readers for the improvement
of the publication. What department
of farm work would you like to have
us treat of, in addition to the depart
ments already running? How many
among our readers are there who are
interested in bees and would they
like to have a column or so devoted
to bee culture each issue?
There appears to be good demand
for good literature on bee culture, as
the industry is on the increase in the
Pacific northwest. The Ranch is
able to supply "a B G of Bee culture"
one of the best works on the industry,
for the regular price of $1.25, post
paid. Those Of our readers who de-
sire the book should send their orders
direct to the publishers of The Ranch.
The next session of the National ir-
rigation association will be held at
FL Paso, Texas, November 15 to IL,
inclusive. Such as are interested In
irrigation and desire to correspond
with the secretary of the association
can address him at Ell PasO Last
year the irrigation congress was held
at Ogden, Utah, where the state of
Washington carried off the silver cup
for the best exhibit of hops grown by
irrigation.
In Nebraska there is gentleman
of the name of H. w. Campbell, who
has some ideas of his own about Gull
tivating a crop Of grain and soil TIL
lage in general. His system has
come to be known as the Campbell
system" and consists Of persistently
narrowing the ground and making
fine mulch, no matter If the grain is
up several inches. Mr.. Campbell Is
not afraid to harrow the ground i'm
mediately after rain or after irri-
cation till he gets fine mulch. A
practical demonstration of the effects
of this method was made in Morgan
county, Colorado. Mr.. Campbell
happened to be in the county April
last, just after a crop of barley on
one farm was making it's appearance.
He advised the owner or the land to
turn on the irrigation water and har-
row the surface as quickly after the
irrigation as possible. The people
in the vicinity ridiculed the advice,
falling back on the old-time theory
that crops must never be irrigated up
and that narrowing the surface after
the plants appear is naturally detri-
mental to them. The work was done
however, as Mr.. Campbell suggested,
and some plants were pulled up by
the roots, but two months later there
was not to be found a better stand OF
barley in that neighborhood than that
particular field. The neighbors cal
culate the yield at about 100 bushels
to the acre, while they admit that
from their own fields the yield will
hardly go over 25 bushels. Many OF
them have made up their minds to
take up the Campbell system in their
grain fields next spring.

Every farm boy should certainly be
encouraged to grow trees and small
fruit plants from the seed and be
taught how to bud and graft at the
proper times. Many prominent man

this way and is all the better off for
having gained the experience.

Herbert Watson, a small white boy about IA years old. who lives at Green Springs, and works for one of the shoe companies in the city, was badly Injured yesterday by running into the buggy of Chief of the Fire Department Mullin

DIR. HUGHES SAYS THERE
 WILL BESOMETHING DOING

Postmaster J. ". Hughes was last night asked if there was anything doing among the republicans In Alabama.
 Anything doing?r he interrogatively ex- claimed. Just watch for a few weeks and observe. and you may find business for the Parker-Davis clubs attention.
 '@rhe republicans of Alabama have never been more solidly unitedi than they are this year. There are no personal biekerings in our ranks. In other words none of our membership have sore toes, as the saying goes, and we are going to make a strong fight. Recent events have driven a vast number of influential and brainy recruits Into the republican ranks in the state.
 "On the first of September the state republican executive committee will meet in this city and will nominate candi- date for chairman of the railroad com mission and then begin in earnest a viz orous campaign. On the night of that date there will be a grand republican rally at the Jefferson theatre, where dis tinguished speakers from this and other states will be heard, among them Con- gressman Llttlefeld of Maine. This will be the signal for an onslaught against our opponents, and the work will go on until the end of the campaign. Like
The Birmingham age-herald., 1904-08-07

meetings will be held in Mobile, Mont gomery, Huntsville, Attalla and other cities of the state.
 An active course will be persued by the party In the Fifth and Seventh congress sional districts especially. We expect to carry both, certainly the seventh, as our candidate there will have the enthusi- astic support of combination of repub- licans and populsts. That such a oom- bination has a clear majority was illus trated in the two victories won by ex- Congressman Howard"
 And so the powers that be are putting at work even the handful of republicans In Alabama?" was suggested to the post. master. "The case appears desperate"
 Not at all desperate" responded Dr. Hughes, flor Roosevelts election is a foregone conclusion. We mean to have thorough organization in every southern state. and the representatives in con gress, to which we are entitled by right of republican strength-nothing more.
 The democrats will have no strength in the middle west or in the west. and for Parker to win he must carry West Virginia, Maryland, Delaware, New York. sNew Jersey and Connecticut, and then he will lack six electoral votes, and they cannot be found in any direction of the compass"

CONFEDERATE VETERANS MEET
Gold Watch Taken From General
 Harde Has Been Located.

Camp Hardee. U. C. ", met yesterday afternoon in its hall on Twenty-frst street, between Second and Third avenues, and several interesting matters came up.
 The camp passed a resolution to have published in pamphlet form the speeches of Brigadier General J. W. Bush, which was delivered in June; the speech of Gov ernor Joseph F. Johnston, delivered at East Lake, and the original poem which was read yesterday afternoon by Prof. s. L. Robertson.
 One of the comrades reported that gold watch, which was captured during the war from General Hardee by Yankee soldier. had been located and that If the proper effort was made the watch could be recovered. Ex-Governor Johnston was appointed a committee or one to make an investigation and see 1T he could get the watch back for the .--- es the deceased general

FIRE HORSE HURT
 IN GAR COLLISION
APPARATUS WAS TURNING OUT TO FIRE WHEN TONGUE OF THE ENGINE RAN INTO AN IpLEWlLD CAR.

The fire engine at headquarters col- lided with car No. 223 on the Idlewiid line at Fourth avenue and Nineteenth street last night. and one of the horses was practically disabled for life. The engine was badly wrecked and the front of the car was damaged.
 The engine had just left the engine house going to the fire which damaged Dr. Ed Drennen's office in the Chalifoux building. It was following the hose wagon and the chemical engine. and collieded with the street car which was going north.
 The horse injured was Jack Greener," l" one of the pair of big blacks which has been driven to the engine for some time. His left flank was torn open by the broken tongue of the engine, and 1t made a wound more than a foot square. The horse was carried at once to Dr. Gibson's hospital where 1t was treated. The other horse was slightly injured
 It seems that the car had stopped to al-
 
 within few feet of the corner and when the engine came around Driver Martin was unable to pull the horses to one side far enough to prevent striking the car. He states that he was pulling hard on one rein to get around the car, but that one of his horses slipped and threw the other one so that it was impossible to miss the car.
 There Is considerable question as to whether the car was stationary and on this point will rest the burden of the blame. The law requires a car to stop when the alarm sounds provided the fire wagons are anywhere in the neighbor- hood. Several persons who saw the acci- dent say that the car waited until the chemical engine and hose wagon passed and then started forward, causing the col- lision. Others state that the car was sta- tionary.
 The car was in charge of Conductor J. s. Carroll and Motorman R. H. Jones' Neither of them were hurt The tongue of the engine went entirely through the "dashboard' of the car, and was broken in three places. Although made of the toughest and heaviest wood, 1t was splin- tered from end to end, so great was the contact It was a Jagged end that tore the flank of the horse.
