Level Headed Proposition.

A we'll known writer remarks
that if you own a farm and are
out of debt, don't work your
self and wife into premature
graves for the sake of getting
more land and making more
money. You have but one life
to live and it is very brief one
at the best. Take a little com
fort as you go along day by day
and try to do a little good to
others. A morbid insatiate de-
sire to own the earth, to grail
everything in sight, lies at the
foundation of more unhappiness
in the world than any Other
thing. After you are gone the
world will not long remembel
you by the size of the estate yot
left behind you, but good lif'
well lived will keep your memory
green.

Haul your straw out and

Better TO be aGOOd Father Than
President.

President Roosevelt, amidst all
his cares, finds time to devote to
his boys, and once every summer
he takes them out on camping
expedition. This year they all
boarded a boat and went off to
some spot on Long Island, where
camp was PITCHED entirely out Of
the world, no one but Private
Secretary Loeb knowing where
the family had gone. When the
boys grow up, every last one of
them will be found loyal in the

There are many fathers who
wonder why it is that their boys
manifest but little interest in
them. These might learn a les

The School Opening.

The schools are open again;
the streets are gay with bright
dresses and swinging satchels,
and they have the right Of way.
Around the school houses are
swarms of little humanity and
the chatteris as though a wilder
ness of mocking birds were hold
ing a convention. There is no
finer sight; there is no sweeter
music. There they are on the
threshold, not a care in their
lives, not a thought in their
minds but of hope and future
filled with gladness. They do
not realize how swiftly the years
are hurrying them on, what a
little while it will be when those
that are facing the heat of the
day now will be pushed aside,
and they will have to pick up
the burdens and carry them.
What farce-comedy this life is
anyway; how swift the acts
how soon the curtain will be
rung down and the whole play
will be forgotten. Goodwin's

ARID Farming.

We are firmly convinced that
the getting of water on the thou-
sands of acres in snake-river val
lew is not the only way OF solv-
ing the problem of making these
rich lands profitable. Notmany
years hence hundreds and thou
sands of acres above the canal
lines will be successfully farned
without irrigation. When that
time comes, hundreds OF our
farmers who are today scramb-
ling and running over one anoth-
er to get land under the canal
and suffering every privation TO
meet the payments Of such lands
and water, will condemn them
selves fornot having filed on few
hundred acres OF bench land and
learned thru wisdom and expert
ence how to successfully farm
such lands. BY wisdom we
mean the reading 6f what is be
ing done on every side OF us and
con(erring with those who are
verv successful in this line OF
work.
Down the river a little way to
the north there are the Gibson
bovs-tlle editors of the Gem
state Rural-who are telling IN
the columns Of their paper their
own actual success as practical
arid farmers, and a little way to
the south at Logan Utah there
are the Utah Agricultural boys
Widtsoe and Merrill the editors
of the Deseret Farmer who are
telling exactly the same story
with reference to their COCOA.
dry farm in Juab County. Now
these men have welded science
and practice and are putting
forth every week most excellent
papers which if persued by our
farmers would result in giving q
great impetus to the agricultua
interest of the west.
Not only are these gentlemen
giving their own experience but
they are giving the experience o
dozens of other practical, success
ful farmers. To read their pa
pers. makes one feel that this Il
indeed a farming age" and tina
no field offers more Inducement
to day than does that of agricul
ture. Of agricultural pursuit
there is none surer than that O
arid farming.
Most of the people of this re
gion we presume have travele
over Western Cache Valley, an
have noted the dry bench land
near Cache Junction. More III
inviting, more barren, more de:
olate hill sides would be hard t
find. And yet these same hil
sides have been taken up in n
cent years and thru careful an
scientific agriculture have bee
made to produce abundant
without irrigation.
One of the most successful IA
mers Of the west Hon. George
Farrell of Smithheld Ut. is II
man who has been largely il
strumental in making this pra
teal demonstration near Gael
Junction. His dry farm the
has practically made him
wealthy man. For that reasc
we have reproduced in anoth'
column a letter of advice to ia
mers in Utah from his pen wit
the belief that the same advi
will apply equally well to Il
farmers in Idaho, and with Il
hope that it will bear good fru
in Cassia County.

the ground is we'll pulverized and
free from weeds and trash of
every description, before you un-
to SOW gram. Then
procure the very best OF seed viz:
Gold Coin or the Winter Lasalle,
but if possible procure the Gold
Coin if you have to go one or
two hundred miles to get it, as
1t is the best vielder and the best
milling wheat in the market,
also the best dry farm wheat in
the state. 1t has a good stiff
straw about 3 feet long, does
not lodge or rust and will sell
readily from one to three cents
per bushel more than any other
kind of wheat in the market,
and will yield from 3 to 5 bushel
more per acre, and the straw is
good for feeding stock in the
winter. Therefore, my advice to
all farmers is, SOW the Gold Coin
Winter Wheat, as it is a nice
white grain and all millers are
seeking it, and the wheat mer-
chants are buying it in pre-
ferance to any other kind. 1t is
very hardy and stands the Win
ter well. If sown any time from
Sept. 1st to Oct. 18th will get
well rooted in any land that is
we'll pulverized and free from
weeds. My advise to all dry
farmers is to commence to piow
your ground that you wish to
summer fallow as soon as pos
sible this fall, not less than eight
inches deep, aud if you can pos
sibly do so, subsoil the same 6
inches deeper which will make
IL inches in depth to receive all
the moisture that may fall
through the winter; leave the
ground rough until spring for
the frost and snow to fertilize
through the winter, then in the
spring soon as the ground is dry
enough, 90 over it cross-wise
with your disk, and lengthwise
with the harrow, and continue
disking and narrowing at inter
walls through the summer to xii
all weeds and pulverize the sol
perfectly SO as to preserve all thu
moisture possible; then shor
time before sowing put on you
leveler and level the surface nice
ly, previous to sowing th
wheat. My advice to all far
mers, especiallE those who hav
dry farms is to sow fall whea
in Sept. and none later tha
Oct. 18th. After this time, wal
till spring, then work over tn
soil with disk harrow and leve
er, and SOW in March if possible
with New Zealand spring whea

REDIsrRIor THE STATE
This VIII BE Done BY Next LegIs-
laiure.


The next General Assembly will,
it is believed, redistrict the State for
members of Congress. That is the
information which is being passed
around at this time, and it is geper.
ally accepted as correct. 1t will be
recalled that the Legislature passed
the bill last session, it being killed
because it did not reach the Govern
or In time for him to sign it or TO
veto it before the final adjournment
OF the General Assembly. Another
time it was killed in the House be-
cause it is alleged the friends of Con-
gresham w. A. Jones, of the First
District, objected.
The First and Second Districts
are more directly concerned in the
redlstricting than any others. The
difference in voting population be.
tween the First and Second Dis.
tricts is about fifty thousand, and il
Is proposed to take from the Second
District the city Of Newport News
and the counties of Elizabe tn CITY
and Warwick and attach them to
the First district, which would still
leave a difference of about seven
thousand in favor of the Second Dis
trlct. The vote Of Newport News
and the counties of Elizabeth CITY
and Warwick is twenty thousand.
They are on the north side of Hamp
ton Roads, and are really more ac-
cessible to the First District than to
the Second. The conflicting inter
ests of Norfolk aud Newport News
make it imperative that the district
be divided. At present the two cit
les are in the Second District, aud
the fact that there is a government
yard and private yard for the build.

one Congressman to represent both

THE GOVERNORS PATRONAGE.

Claude A. Swanson, Of Pittsyl.
vania county. will be inaugurated
governor of Virginia February l.
1906. His term will be for four
years. Mr.. Swanson has already
served thirteen years in Congress +,
and the term for which he was last
elected will expire March 4. 1907.
de will tender his resignation and an
election will probably be ordered, it
is thought, at the time of the general
election in November.
Gov. Swanson will have a great
deal OF patronage to bestow when he
assumes the executive chair. Among
the positions he will be called upon
to oil will be the following:
Adjutant-General.
len members Of the State Board
of Agriculture and Immigration.
one OF each congressional district.
-Four Of the FIVE members of the
board of directors of the State peni-
tertiary will have to be named dur.
ing his term-one each year for a
term of five years.
A State commissioner of hobitals
for term of five years.
During his term he will be called
upon to name four or five members
of the board of directors for each of
the State hospitals.
Two members of the State corpor-
alton commission for q term of six
years each.
There is also q staff of eighteen
colonies to be named-the men who
wear much gold braid, handsome un-
iforms and do the horors on State
occasions. 1t is expected that they
will come from all sections of the
State.
1t will fall to the lot of the incom-
ing governor to name large number
OF notarles and petty official through
out the State.
Governor Swanson will be the first
to occupy the new State capitol as a
governor elected for a full term.
Governor Montague will get in the
building for just two months before
the expiration of his term.-Rich.

A TRIP ON A FISHING STEAMER

A small party from Lynhams. after
having enjoyed n good lecture given by
the Bible Colporteur OF Virginia Tuesday
night, left for days trip on the fishing
steamer Tangier.
The day was one OF beauty and the
sea seemed as though it had never had n
storm TO modest it's calm and glistening
waters. Fishing that day was in Tan
gier Sound, and it was not long before
many steamers had gathered on the
fishing ground. ami while the writer
does not know what many fish are. vet
it seemed there were millions in sipbt
all of The time.
The time had now arrived for the Tan
gier to make her first set and Capt. J. w.
Shehigh gave orders from the mast head
Tor the men to get into their boats. So
they glided off from the steamer and en-
circled this seemingly huge bunch of fish.
Now each man did all in his power to
save these fish. In a short while orders
were given for the steamer to pick up her
boats, and with the pilot, Otis Crowther,
at the wheel, the boats were soon along
side and the fish hoisted to the top of the
water. Now the time of wonder and
amusement had come. Every eve was
open, eager to see the sight, which is to
many n curiosity. The large net was let
down into the fish and conveyed a thou
sand fish to the hold each time until
every fish was clear of the net. This was
the process all day until twelve sets had
been made, and then the sun was below
the horizon.
This was day of sport TO the party,
an6much credit is due to the officers of
the boat Tor being so good and kind to
us. Capt. Peter Die and w. S. Landlord
were right on hand and did all they
could for the pleasure of the crowd. And
last. but not least, were the cooks. Sure
ly we can't forget them. Willard Lewis,
assisted by r. C. Edwards, served some
nice dishes and made the kitchen the
place of attraction.
With all this kindness no one can
blame the party for taking another trip
in the near future on the Tangier. 3as
Those in the party weres Mrs. w. A:
Die. Misses EveIyhe and Margaret She.

THEPRIMARY INVESTIGATIONS,

Mr.. W. L. Royal of Richmond de.
serves sympathy. He is obliged to
live in q very wicked world, and in
a very wicked city, Richmond. The
new grand jury named by Judge Witt
toinvestigate anew the primary frauds
confessedly taken from the very best
men in Richmond, does not suit him
aud he says he will have nothing
more to do with the court proceed
ings, but will pursue the rascalsinde-
pendently and in his own way.
To cap the climax of his woe.
Judge George l.. Christian, who was
appointed on q committee by the
chairman of Mr.. Royall's historical
msss-meeting gotten up to bull.doze
the court, politely declines to serve,
taking the ground that the courts
showed their ability and purposes to
enforce the law, and he regards the
mass-meeting as a reflection on the
court. OF course every body in Vir-
ginia knows something of the high
character of Judge Christian, as well
as of his reputation for having sound
judgment.
Mr.. R1yall is dong lot to turn
the whole proceedings into opera
bouffe. Judge Witt can be relied ON
to go to the bottom of frauds in
the primary or anything else
coming within his jurisdiction, and
for this he will re''eiye the approval
of all good citizens. He does not
need, in the effort, the guidance of
any self-appointed guardian, no mat
ter how able and astute.-Staunto ton
