Smelling company is a finished whole.
so far as its ability to smelt ores is
concerned. For thoroughness of
equipment and general utility as
smelling plant, it can be placed among
very best of the independent smelling
plants of the West.
From the time of the inception of
the scheme to build plant in Grand
Junction to smelt ores, it has been
the purpose of those to whom the
work was charged. to build the very
best plant known to modern smelling.
That thsy have ACCOMPLISHED this
work. with high satisfaction TO
themselves and to those interested is
a certainty.
Replying to an application to in
speot the plant in its finished condi-
tion, General Manager Marvin. who
has given a large portion of his
time for the last year to seeing the
work pushed with vigor toward COM
pletion, invited a Sentinel reporter
to be his guest in a tour of the plant
last Tuesday evening. In his in
specticn General Manager Marvin
permitted the most rigid investigation
to be made and opened every avenue
of information for the reporter to
inform himself of the completeness
of the plant and its general capacity
for smelling.
1t is not the purpose of this article
to go into the details of the construc-
tion or to minutely give description
of the machinery or methods of oper-
alton, this has been done before and
has appeared from time to time in
this paper. The desire to view the
plant and to meet and interview Cen
eral Manager Marvin arose from the
fact that. there were some questions
which have been obtruding themsel-
YES before the public ever since work
began on the plant. which The Sent
incl desired to satisfactorily inform
itself upon. Also. that it might be
able then to give such Information to
the public. These have been dis
quieting questions and unless answer
ed might tend to give people an op-
portunitv to question the construction
or the possibilities for the plant.
1t has been question which has led
to much discussion pro and con
whether it was possible to secure for
this plant sufficient tonnage at all
times to make its operation paying
investment. After very satisfactory
view of every department of the
plant this question which was upper
most in the mind of the reporter was
blankly put to Mr.. Marvin. His ans
wer was in part as follows:
II have understood that it has al
wavs been more or less question
whether it would be possible to secure
sufficient ore to profitably operate the
plant and l am glad to make answer
to that question. 1t is one of the
remarkable surprises in connection
with this plant that, we have al
ready found ore supplies to keep this
plant busy at all times. 1 must
acknowledge that before a very full
investigation we were little pertur-
bed with the possibility that we
might not be able to secure sufficient
ore, but as | have stated there is more
ore offered now from Leadville and
Red Cliff alone to keep this plant
running to its capacity. So far as
obtaining sufficient ore is concerned,
we have no fears of at all times obtain
ing an ample supply. 1 might say
that Leadville could furnish Us suffi-

THE GUATEMALAN TURKEY.
Enemy of Boil Weevil Which Is to
Be Given Trial by Agricul-
tural Department. So.

Secretary of Agriculture Wilson an
nounces that he has discovereda new foe
to the cotton boil weevil. 1t is an espe-
cially interesting foe since after it has
eaten the weevil the cotton planters can
eat the foe. Mr.. Wilson's discovery is
a species of turkey from Guatemala.
While not. willing TO commit himself
to the statement that the new foe will
make the boil weevils scarce in Texas,
Secretary Wilson has hopes the turkey
will not necessarily supersede the
weevil-eating ant, but will be his ally.
"Our agents in Guatemala" says the
secretary, ''in their study of the life
habits of the ants and the boil weevil,
have recently discovered that the turkey
is a great enemy of the weevil and pro-
pose to give it a trial in the United
States. The turkey of Guatemala is
somewhat smaller than our own variety
and it is very tame. 1t is also very good
for food. In fighting the weevil the 6e-
partment will spare no expense and il
the turkeys can be obtained and will do
the work they will be distributed among
all the plantations of the infested sec.
ton. The study of the Guatemalan am
will, at the same time, be continued.

doing we'll and are meeting our ex.
pectations. Reports that we. have been
losing them are without foundation"

INTRODUCTION OF A QUEEN
How to Perform Task Which Is Con-
sidered One of the Hardest
in Beekeeping.

Colonies having only young bees &C.
cept queens readily, so that when a
swarm has issued and the parent stock
has been removed to a new stand the
time for queen introduction is propiti-
GUS. During great honey flow queens
are accepted without much question. if
any at all. They may at such times
nearly always be safely run in Just
at dark by lifting one corner of the
cover or guilt Of a queenless hive and
driving the bees back with smoke. The
new queen, having been kept without
food and away from all other bees for
a half hour previously, is then slipped
in and the have left undisturbed for
several days. AS queens mate only
once and workers and drones live but
few weeks or at most only a few
months , it an Italian, a Carniolan or
other choice queen mated to a drone of
her own race is introduced into a COL
ony the bees of this colony will soon
be replaced by others of the same race
as the queen. All of the colonies of an
apiary may thus be changed. From
a single breeding queen the apiary
may be supplied with young queens
pure in blood. and since these-eyen
though mated to drones of another
race-will produce drones of their own
blood, the apiary will soon be stocked
with males of the desired race.-Field

POULTRY YARD PARAGRAPHS,

The dust heap is absolutely neces-
sary for fowls.
Feather pulling is vice that comes
from confinement and idleness.
Allow no filth of any kind to accu-
mulate within reach Of the fowls.
Thoroughness in detail in poultry
raising is the great secret of success.
Common fowls do not possess the
characteristic qualities of thorough
BREEDS.
When fowls are permitted. to roost
in foul, damp houses it causes .droop-
ishness.
Fowls will eat a great deal of granu-
lated charcoal. AS preventive of
disease it is invaluable.
BY giving young fowls free range
1t will aid materially to develop y
strong, healthy constitution.
Poultry should always have access
to green food when possible, and when
they cannot it should be supplied.
Corn, when fed to the hens by itself,
has a tendency to fatten rather than
produce the most profitable egg lay
ing.-American Tribune. ..s...u

RAISE YOUR OWN HONEY.
No Farm Need or Should Be without
Few Well-Cared-For Hives
Of Bees.

There is no reason why farmers
should not handle their bees along
profitable lines, even if they have but a
few colonies. Bees, as kept on the farm
"a few colonies here and there, scat
tered in different localities-ordinarily
do the best business. for they are not
overstocked as they are frequently in
large apiaries. Almost double the
amount Of honey can be, obtained from
a colony thus situated, and bee-keep-
ing, as rule, is much more profitable
if the bees are in proper shape to do
good work. The greatest mistake
farmers make. is that of limiting the
surplus boxes, thus not furnishing the
bees with enough surplus capacity.
The bees fill this limited space with
honey in few days at the beginning
OF the honey season and afterwards
turn their attention to swarming, and
several swarms will be the result in
stead of large honey yield. Farmers,
In connection with their other work,
might as we'll reap hundreds Of pounds
OF the finest honey instead of obtain
ing but a few pounds, if they would
only give the bees plenty of storage
room, and promptly take the honey
away as soon as completed. The rule
among small bee-keepers is to give but
a small surplus capacity in the spring,
and let this remain all summer to be
taken on in the fall, supposing that it
is an al: summers job for the bees,
when in most cases this space is filled
in a week or two and allowed to re-
main in, the hive all summer, which
reduces it to poor grade of honey as
we'll as a small amount. Hundreds of
pounds OF first-class honey might have
been obtained by giving a larger ca
paclty, and removing the honey as fast
as stored and completed. Some local
tiles are better than others, and some
seasons are better than other seasons.
Dut 1t is never mistake any season
to thus provide for the most at all
times and under all conditions. BY
little forethought and work on the
part of the average farmer and fruit
grower, he could easily secure all the
honey necessary for his own use. and
some to sell also.-Midland Farmer.

AN IDEAL III hhEY ROOSI.
wise to have them roost with other poul-
try. II found necessary to confine them,
all that is needed is shed or house that
will protect them from the elements and
marauders of all kinds, and at the same
time not be too combining for them
Place the roosts we'll up from the fooc
and keep the interior perfectly clean and
free from vermfn. In localities where 1t
is not too cold during the winter months,
it is better to allow the breeding stock
to roost in the open, either in trees or
upon roos;s prepared for them by plant
ing posts that project about eight feet
above the ground. Upon these place
long poles about two or 2H inches in d.

feed which is poured into the box
through door (a), to run down only as
fast as the chickens eat it from the floor
through opening at c. Nail on a strip
at the front to prevent the chickens from
working the feed out on the ground. The
opening should not be large enough to
permit the fowls getting in to stratch out
the feed. It may be fastened to the side

upon it each side to prevent its being up
set. This arrangement gives them at all
times clean feed with little trouble for
the chickens and great saving in feed
to the grower.-T. S. Bronson, in Farm

cruel--heartless. Miss Maher was
young, too, and it counted in her con-

So, as the days went by, and each
morning brought only the same little
sentence, repeated in the crispest of
tones, Miss Maher added the admirable
trait of long suffering to the mental
picture she had formed of Main As,
and rang her bells so viciously that

that "Central's" service, and incident

please Miss Maher either that the glib
person at Red 1901 should have slipped
SO easily and defftly into Main ass

long, but they always ended in some
fragmentary phrase which appr1sed
keenly interested ears of some pro-
jected plan for an evenings amuse-
ment. Red 1901 seemed to enjoy So

affairs bothered Miss Maher a good
deal. She meant to see it through
now that matters had reached this

for whom the girl at Suffer SS91 really
cared. Why, then, did she trouble
about Red 1901? Two lovers at once
was a novel idea to Miss Maher, and
