Many indeed are the means which the
careful and intelligent farmer may use
to keep up and increase the amount Of
plant food In his soil. and at the same
time secure abundant hArvests there-
from. Several years ago. hard-work-
ing and economical man lived upon .
very poor Kentucky farm; but he lacked
the one accomplishment Of looking to
the welfare OF his land. BY and by It
would no longer produce sufiicient for .
living, and he sold out to Pennsylvania
Dutchman. The neighbors felt sorry
for the new conner, for he was q very
clever man. and they were sure that Q
too would starve out. Well. having no
interest In the summers crop, which
was about made, he Immediately set to
work and hauled out all the manure
about the barnyard--a great lot fer
sure, which gave him fne start tc-
ward fertilizing an old field long as o
abandoned. Then the mound Of rotten
chips from the woodward went next.
People thought he was then at the end
of his row, SO to speak, but he thought
differently. He made some stout wood
en- rakes and taking all the children
large enough to help, raked the leaves
in the adjoining woods, hauling them
and piling in little piles thickly on the
remainder Of the field. Finally the job
was done and time for plowine had ar
rived. Again the children we're called
out and the bottom Of every furrow In
the portion where leaves were used for
fertilizing was filled with them. Al
ready far on way to deer they were
fairly well rotted when wheat was sown,
and the next year that field came up
with good yield Of wheat all over.
other fields were paetured. and when
ever broken. as much green manure as
could be secured was turned under. In
sects did not bother his crop SO badly
as those OF the neighbors. because the
trash in the fence corners and near
by woods was all cleaned away and
plowed under. Neither we're grain
crops OF the same kind raised in the
same field for two years in succession.
To make a long story short. he made
good living. and in few years his farm
compared favorably with any in the
neighborhood. - d. B. Thomas, In

The Reclamation Of Soil.

As an aftermath of the food condi.

year. the government experts are
studying the best methods Of rehsbili-

badly water-soaked. and It will take
years Of reclamation to regain their
original fertility. Special fertilising
crops are suggested, and where some
return must be made quickly the

 Law enforcement at the cost of a breach with the monopolistic allies which made elaborate campaigns pos sible was too great a sacrifice for Re publican administrations.
 Law enforcement at whatever cost is a vital principle of the American Republic, and one which demands all possible emphasis at this period. It is a practicable, workable essential which must be maintained. Govern. ment cannot be preserved without the perfect ability to enforce law The overwhelming majority Of the people believe in law enforcement, in their power as a nation to enforce consti tuted law The politics of the future indeed of the immediate future. will voice their demand fo- law enforce ment.

statement that "a STRONG delega. tion will be selected to attend the territorial joint statehood meeting in Tucson" It is not stated that a large delegation will go to Tucson and join with the few mossbacks and mum mics of the old pueblo in the attempt to win Arizona, but that a STRONG" delegation will be selected. We have no douht but that the full strength of the Nogales league will be in Tucson: President Ephriam. Con O'Keefe and Editor Bird will be there.
 However, the fact remains that Santa Cruz is on record with every other county in Arizona as unalter- ably opposed to joint statehood in any form. Last year both the Republican and Democratic conventions in that county took the very strongest atti-

LOVE AND LITERARY EDUCATION.

That loving a woman is at least a liberal literary education is indicated by the bulk of the letters returned to the defendant in a recent very in l teresting St. Louis breach of promise suit, and not only by the bulk, but by the quality. The Republic says;
 It required two boys to carry the bundles of epistolary heart burnings which the gentleman had suffered and indited, and, as we have previously noted, the warm effusions were re- markable for a literary beauty and style glowing with sincerity.
 Testimony showed that the lover would start out of a dream in the midst of night and, jumping out of | bed. would rush to free his emotions with pen upon paper; and then, again, first thing in the morning he would write another letter. Letters at noon, letters in the afternoon, letters in the evening-the love song never stopped. While the mavis was singing his love song to the morn the literary lover was scratching away the eloquent music of yeafning; and was still at the sweet task when the nightingale serenaded his mate. And as with con- stant flow the Till purifies itself, so the rippling and purling stream of sentiment through it's unceasing ex- pression refined and clarified and developed it's sparkling beauty.
 And the end-was nothing. For all that came of the literary much ado, it was sweetness wasted on the des- ert air. The tender strains waited to the ear of Apollo and the Muses on high Parnassus, bu; the wooing-it brought no grateful consequence in the immediate quarter to which it was directed. It won the wooer nothing, and even colt him something.
 But the edification remains. The dear-bought experience the fine facil- ity and rare grace of style. the in- genuity of phrasing and developed eloquence of expression, the vast vo- cabulary of love, are his own and cau- not be taken from him. They may stand him in good stead another time.

NoGALEs JOINT srArERs.

The Nosales Oasis of last week has considerable to say about the organ. ization of joint statehood league in that city. We will not question that Editor Bird and probably half a dozen others in Nogales hald a meeting and named themselves a joint statehood league, but the fact remains that Santa Cruz county, like every other county in Arizona. is overwhelm. ingiy in opposition to joint statehood
 The Oasis says "the association starts with a strong membership. !" Very ingenious is this paper. and we suppose if called down it would be claimed that the great strength of this association was to be found in Editor Bird, L. Ephriam. president. and Con O'Keefe, secretary of the so. called association.
 The Oasis does not say how many citizens of Santa Cruz county have identified themselves with the associa- ton which starts out with a strong membership"
 Further along in the Oasis report of the organization of this Nogales Joint Statehood League we find the
Bisbee daily review., 1905-12-13

tIrde against joint statehood; the board of supervisors of the county duidng the present year adopted reso. lutiSns against joint statehood and forwarded them to Washington.
 If the Oasis desired to be fair with congress or its readers it would have stated how many members had been enrolled in the Nogales Joint State hood League, rather than try to de- ceive by declaring that it started with a STRONG membership and that a STRONG delegation would be sent to the Tucson meeting.
