Inspect Warren-Bie Creek Road.

The members of the state road
who have been over
the Warren Big creek routes, SEN
ator M. K. Lewis of Moscow and
Mr.. J. w. Wheeler of Shoshone,
came as far as Lardo on the return
trip Saturday, and left for Meadows
Sunday. They were accompanied
by Civil Engineer G. w. Luck of
Weiser, the we'll known mining
surveyor, who went over the routes
with them. They will probably
meet with the other member of the
commission, Governor Gooding,
and make their report Wednesday,
the oath inst. OF course they would
not make known what their report
will be, but from conversation
had with them by the ADVOCATE
Editor they are favorably impressed
with the route via the Payette
lakes. In the decision great deal
will undoubtedly depend upon
Governor Gooding's views.
They went in over the route via
the Little Salmon river, then up
Salmon river to Resort, and from
there on into the Big creek section,
inspecting the Werdenhoff, lnde-
pendent, and other big mining
propositions in the Smith creek
section while there. They returned
via Secesh and Payette lakes, and
were the first to bring horses this
wav over the Secesh summit this
year.

close to 2000O0,Oo0 bushels in Mime
sofa, North and South Dakota. T h e
Journal s estimate was l82,296,900
bushels, or an increase this year Of
28,505,5 bushels over the yield Of
1904, as then figured by the govern
ment. The figures Of II. v Jones were
174,0OO,OOO bushels for this year. The
government finals for this year will
not appear until December, but the
percentages given in the September
government report, Of Monday last,
would indicate a crop of l85,000,00O to
100000 bushels. The Van Dusen-
Harrington summary makes it some
where between 175,O0O,000 and $780,
100000 bushels.
The summary follows:
HThreshing machine returns from
all parts Of Minnesota and the. two Da-
kotas indicate, as near as we are able
to estimate it, a wheat crop Of about
175,000,000 to 180,000,O00 bushels, of
which there is perhaps 100000 OF
12,000,000 bushels durum wheat. The
crop is Of excellent milling quality
tho it is not grading much, if any
better than a year ago, because of the
large amount Of smut
g Flax has welded very large croI
|tof high-quality seed. It, is too early
to estimate the quantity, but probably
the amount will exceed q, 100000 bush

FORTY MILES OF WALK
LAID THIS SEASON

p { i 3 u. .
Nearly forty miles Of stone sidewalk
were laid this year under the super
vision of the city engineer. w. r. Deal
ing, the sidewalk engineer, says that
there are 1884 miles ordered for this
season, but some of the assessments
were annuled and many property own
ers laid the walks without the aid of
the city, SO that the entire amount
cannot be determined until the work has
ceased and the walks measured.
With this years increase the city
has 6S4 miles Of walk, Of which, how
ever, 77.75 miles is Of wooden plank and
in poor condition. No more plank
walks are permitted to be laid and in
few short years they will be known in
history only.
If laid parallel to the Great n Northern
coast line the sidewalks Of Minneapo.
lis would stretch across the states Of
Minnesota and North Dakota and some
little distance in Montana.

watched the showers and heavy dews ripen the crop into greater value to be quickly and safely harvested, instead of moving In uncertainty and worrying when the first pods ripen.
 Our best farmers who realize the feeding value of dry vines and ripe peas grown in the corn fields, and the quick and cheap manner of saving the same. feed their horses and mules al- most entirely on this forage and sell their surplus corn to the more improvi- dent, They usually plant corn in four to five-foot rows. and at the proper time plant peas liberally in the middle of the corn rows; and after the corn is cut and shocked or otherwise gathered, run the mower between the corn rows. In order to do this take an old mower and cut about two feet off the cutter bar and shorten all up so 1t will run between the rows without cutting the corn stalk; or new mower. cutting three feet can be bought that will run be- tween the corn rows. thereby saving the dry peas and vines-both for seed and forage-after leaving portions of the field for pasture if desired A short mower that will run between corn rows cutting vines and grass is ono of the most valuable farm Implements

Hest Wny to Save Pea-Vine Hay.

The various methods of saving pea vine hay with the least labor and great : every farmer. Muct labor and energy often goes to waste by following the usual plan--to cut when the 1rst pods begin to ripen and let them He and teddeu till cured, or otherwise put in eockIor hang up on posts i'll ready for She barn. If rain and dew falls, shattering leaves, and stems and talk Ning the aroma and green cast out of the Wines, never mind that; toll on: they are well worth the cost, even if the half grown pods are mouldy, minus the leaves at feeding time. But the thought Of the enormous labor expended or paid for in saving green pea crop Is by no means thrilling or encouraging. It suggests and clamors for better meth ods.4 The very nature of the plant for bids the idea of saving the succulent vines and green half grown pods for hay except through a dry kiln.
 My experience, with others, proves that there is cheaper way of saving and increasing the value of the pea crop by lettting all the pods ripen fully on
 It is evident that the wNole crop of ripe pods (say five, eight or ten bushels per acre), cut and saved with the dry vines even after frost gives, more good feed than the vines and half-grown, mouldy pods. For several years have been feeding dry vines with all the dry pods thereon Ii is the most sub stantial roughage I have ever had It costs less to cut and put In the barn than any have ever saved plant all my Oat land in peas-in rows, and work them with a view of cutting after every pod is fully ripe and stems dry, even after frost.

When a great CT impetus Is given to this commercial war. next March. American farm pro- ducts to the value of $40,000,000, will be shut out of the German market. That will derange every market in the world where the products of the Ameri- can field are bought and sold. including the sacred home market. Who will foot the bills? That Is easy. They will be apportioned between the artisan of Germany and the farmer of America.
 The President of the United States Is said to be much concerned about the thing and Is contemplating a reciprocity treaty What will he do with his treaty when ne negotiates 1t? What chance will such a treaty have in a Congress dominated in one House by the Senate Finance Committee, while the other House Is powerless in the grasp of Committee on Rules com posed of Joseph G.

 This is one argument for sowing burr clover very early in the season or in time for strong root system 10 be formed before winter. Indeed Of all all the plants that may be sown in the fall for winter growth burr clover is the one that can be and should be sown earliest. This is partly for the reason burr Snnrsrs aed or seed Iod pods pd need considerable time for partial rotting before the seed will germinate. Moreover, the loose seed pod with its double row of prickles tends to keep the soil from coming in immediate contact with the seed and until immediate contact Is secured from the competing of the soil many of the seed will remain ungerminated. Au- gust is none too, early for the sowing of burr clover, but good results may also be obtained in September.
 Fortunately, burr clover Is adapted to 6 wide range of soils, resembling hairy vetch in this respect. It succeeds fine 1y on the stiff lime soils of the prairie region. on the clay and loamy soils bordering this region. on the red lime valley soils of Northeast Alabama and on at least some of the sandier soils of Southeast Alabama. It has been reported as making a successful growth near the gulf coast where many
