The mill of the Esmeralda Con. Co.
started up Monday, To the entire
satisfaction of Sup't. Colcord the
new mill started off without hitch.
The mill is one of the most modern
in the State. The batteries are set
in concrete and every modern device
has been added to the equipment.
The engine is one of the most eco
nomic that could be purchased, is
heated by oil, and the results so far
indicate that oil is the great and the
cheap fuel for the timberless regions,
The mill was started up on low grade
ores, so that the working parts might
be properly adjusted.
There are upwards Of 10000 tons
of low-grade ore on the dumps now,
and miners at work in the Lapanta
are taking out high grade ore.

Using the Disc Harrows.

The disc as form of soil cIlltivator
Is becoming constantly more popular;
but it must be used right to be eff
fective. An expert with the disc har-
row says:
|. want to say an encouraging word
for the disc harrow. Not all soils are
adapted for its use--exceedingly stony
land is ill-fitted for its use, nor perhaps
the heavy, sticky clays But upon
loamy soils that are loose and upon
(which sod quickly forms after seeding
there is no tool to compare to the heavy
disc. 1t seems a waste of money to
buy the. small light machines. Farm
ers often say. "My team is light, can
not draw those big 20-inch discs,
weighted" All right. then you won't
do much business. These sma,. teams
always mean poor cultivation-upo
these heavy sods there must be given
the draft of three or four horses of
good weight-not less than 1900
pounds. Upon the machine besides the
driver may be added an extra load of
stone to put the discs down at least
five inches. and If the sod is not torn
up so deeper The field may look un.
even when finished, but spring tooth
or smoothing harrow will do the level
ing and the soil will have been thor
oughly mixed and the cultivation If
prolonged for two weeks will approx
mate the old-fashionaG summer fallow.
And If carried along periodically for
four to six weeks it will reduce the
stubborn cuack grass. Cheap disc
sharpeners are upon the market costing
not more than 80 to So that will do
the work effectually. These sharp discs
will do more work with less weight
and somewhat reduced draft.

~ lsyrOes are naturally 3 raid of

primitive inheritances which made

house and the graveyard And if there
is any chance in the world to see a
ghost or 10 conjure up a ghost story
you may depend on the negro to do it.
But there is somewhat of the real in
the story I have i'm mind. There was
certain old black nanny in my
neighb0rhoOd and she was thoroughly
devoted to a certain family. She had
known the husband and father of the
house all his life-was Il servant in
fact, in the home of his father before
and after the war, He was good to
her ana she could find in him all the
virtues of the old man. He took sick.
She was with him all during his sick
ness He died
she still remained in the room and
would not leave even during the time
the body was being prepared for the
grave \ sheet had been pulled over
the body. and the old woman at the
moment was the only person IN the
room. She was keeping a silent watch.
Suddenly the sheet moved. as if the
dead man had pulled NJ one of his
arms in order to shift his position. She
never remained in the room TO see
what was going to happen. She rush
ed out of the house and went to the
place next door, where she declared
her young master was not dead, and
that he had come to life. OF coarse
it was all quite natural The move
ment she had observed was merely
the contraction Of a muscle, a ding
which frequently happens EVt You
could not convince her 2f the truth of
the matter She still looSs upon the
whole thing as Il manifestation of life
returned Curiously enough, she could
not be pers uaIed to enter the house
again after hat time, nor would she
attend the funeral of the man to whom
she had been devoted during all Of his
life Superstitution is Il curious thing,
isn't it,"

lnvar. an alloy which when heated

Gently been inverted by Or. Guilauue,
the physicist, says the Frankfort
news. consists of nickel and steel,
therefore of two metals which each for
Itself expands rather considerably in
heat Correct measurements have,
however. shown that DR.. GuilIaune has
really produced alloys which when
heated expand even less than marble
or wood and when slightly changed in
their composition even contract when
heated. Proportions of comnositions
of alloys have been nd so that they
neither expand nor tract. but re-
main the same in all "a of heat
The Importance of this invention is
extraordinary. For scientific. as well
as for practical purposes, measuring in
struments of invar, as the inventor
calls the new alloy, will render most
superior service. Already objects for
tropical surveys have been made of it.
Such measurements always suffered
from certain inaccuracies owing to the
expansion of the metals in the heat
and required numerous remeasure-
ments. Measuring sticks for '1borato-
ries, as well as for official gauging. are
also to be made of this new alloy.
DR. Guillaune has made a special nj
10y to correct the unrest of naval chro-
nometers by the medium defect of
temperature. Such ehronometer. re-
Gently tested at the observatory of
Kew, near London. had Il deviation of
only .1S of a second day. and for an
increase of temperature of ] degree
Fahrenheit each the deviation was
only .004 of second day more That
pendulums of invar, therefore. must
excel by their Interchangeable and even
swings is self-evident and the tests
made at the same observatory have
demonstrated shat even in differences
of temperature of IS degrees Gel. sim
pie pendulums of invar rods showed
only Il deviation of - of Il second a
day. 1t has to be added that these
pendulums had no equalizing attach
ments, but consisted only of rods With
these examples the number of uses of
invar is certainly not at all exhausted
and undoubtedly many more will yet
be found
