FARLEY FOR STATE CHAIRMAN.

The complete harmony which now pre-
walls in the Republican party in Colo
rado is strikingly shown by the with
drawal of all opposition to the reelection
of Chairman Farley by the state con
vention, which will meet on September
IA. Mr.. W. S. Boynton, who was at one
time candidate for the place, and
whose friends strongly urged his claims,
has withdrawn from the race and an
nounced in an interview that he favors
Mr.. Farley. As no other candidate is
even mentioned this circumstance
strongly points to the conclusion that
the convention will ratify the choice of
the party leaders throughout the state
Doubtless no action could be taken
that would give greater satisfaction to
the rank and file of the Republican party
in Colorado. Mr.. Farley is a splendid
organizer and an executive of proven
ability. When elected to his present po-
sition two years ago he was confronted
by tho most discouraging conditions.
The Republicans in the state had been
out of power for years, the party was
disorganized and prospects of victory
seemed remote indeed BY persistent
effort and the exercise of rare ability Mr..
Farley settled factional difficulties, unit
ed the party and organized complete
and notable victory. Since then the
same qualities have enabled him to pre-
vent n rupture which might have result.

At Pendleton, Ore, and on several
farms in the eastern part of the state Of
Washington, dynamite is used to break
up the ''hard pan" stratum Just beneath
the surface. Good soil and moisture arc
under the "hard pan" In the sage-brush
and alkali regions, this stratum of hard
pan will not let the moisture come to the
surface, nor can tree roots and alfalfa
roots reach ;he moisture. So the surface
is dry alkali, the mother of sage brush,
and nothing else. The dynamiters be-
lieye that by smashing this barren and
rebellious stratum they can make the
moisture come up and the roots go down.
Crops have been planted over consid
cradle tract of dynamited ground. In
the fall we shall know how good far
mer dynamite is. With the Procession,
