with all possible speed to tap the
ledge on the Bodie claim.
On the Crackerjack, which is
bonded from Billy Black, the Weiser
cigar dealer, and Jacob Landsman of
Boise, work is being vigorously pros
ecuted by Rudolph Brown with a
small force. Native copper has been
struck on the property and the mine
generally is showing up exceedingly
fine. All properties throughout the
district are preparing to vigorously
prosecute operations during the sea-
son, and indications are that some
rvey prominent producers will be the
result.
The Heath mining district is ad-
mirably situated, being only eighteen
miles from Cambridge the nearest
railroad and supply point-and about
twelve miles from Snake river, and no
mining camp in the west is better
blessed with such an unlimited sup
ply of timber and water. Another
very important feature of Heath dis
trict is that almost every property
within its boundaries can be operated
through tunnels.

was arrested here Wednesday
evening by Deputy Sheriff Tom Pence
on charge Of forgery sworn to by
Tom Brassfield. Sharp, alias Hub
bard, now lies in the county bastile,
as it is yet undecided whether he will
be tried in Idaho or Oregon. 1t is
generally supposed he committed the
forgery in Oregon. 1t seems that
Sharp came to town last Saturday
from near Vale with two horses which
it was since learned he had stolen.
He took them to Matthews & Moul-
tons stables and later sold one to
John Morrison for s35. The other
horse and fine saddle and bride are
yet at the stable. Shortly after
arriving here he met Tom Brassfield,

Carl Jones, mechanical engineer of

city Thursday afternoon from Land
ore and left at once for Portland. 1t
is reported he has resigned and will
later go to San Francisco. Speaking
of operations of the Landore smelter
Mr.. Jones stated the plant was run

tons of ore treated daily, five tons Of
copper matte is received-a ton of
copper to every twelve tons of ore,
Enough ore is now at the plant to
keep it running for month or six
weeks longer and it is thought by that
time teams will be put on to resume
hauling from the mines.

Chinese Incubation Methods.

The Chinese have been practlcing
incubation for centuries and do not
have patent incubators either. They
use the old-style methods. which 1t is
doubtful II an American could do
much with. One of the common
methods employed in China is to take
a pile of horse manure and allow II
to heat for a few days, turning 1t over
to regulate the heat. When the tenn
perature is at about 100 degrees the
Chinese put in duck eggs or eggs OF
other fowls.
Recently the Chinese in Hawaii
have taken to raising ducks in this
way. The climate is admirably adapt
ed TO the work OF incubation, as the
temperature seldom falls below 20 de-
grees and seldom rises ABOVE rs.
This very uniform temperature makes
II easy for them to regulate the heat
OF the manure in which the eggs are
being incubated.
The eggs in the manure pile are
watched carefully and turned from
day to day When the allotted time
for incubation has gone by the little
chicks or ducklings as the case may
be are seen coming out OF all parts
of the manure pile. They are care
fully tended for some days and are
kept in a box or pen in which the
temperature is high enough to prevent
them from being chilled till they be.
gin to get some feathers.

that my nerves, which used to be UNI

Latent Fertility.

An average of the results OF 40 an.
alyses of the typical soils of the
United States showed per acre for the
first eight inches OF surface 1900
pounds of nitrogen, 1890 pounds OF
phosphoric acid and 10, 400 pounds OF
potash. The average yield OF wheat
in the United States is IA bushels per
acre. Such a crop will remove 29.7
pounds of nitrogen, 9.5 pounds of phos-
phoric acid and 1877 pounds OF potash.
Now II all of the potential nitrogen,
phosphorlc acid and potash could be
rendered available there is present in
such AN average soil, In the flrst eight
inches, enough nitrogen to last 80.
enough phosphoric acid for 500 and
enough potash for 1000 years.
This is what is meant by potential
soil fertility, and yet such a soil pos
sessing this same high potential fertil.
ity, may, under certain conditions, be
so actually barren of results to the
farmer as to lead him to believe 1t alb
solutely devoid Of plant food.
A soil at Rothamstead, England,
which had been successfully cropped
to grain for so years without the ad.
dition of manure, and which conse.
quently had become exhausted, espe'
cially in available phosphoric acid,
still contained a total OF 1850 pounds
OF the latter per acre in the first foot
of depth.-Delawar station.

A Theory Of EGG Moisture.

A writer on poultry subjects in an
exchange says that the egg gets rid
of its moisture more by reason OF the
pressure from within than by reason
of the evaporation from its surface.
He says: "As an evidence OF this, in
fertile eggs do not lose much in size
or weight. while a fertile egg loses
one-slxth in weight and one-siXtieth in
size"
This theory does not appear very
sound. The fact seems to be that tho
infertile egg loses more moisture than
the fertile egg. one of the ways OF
testing eggs that have been incubated
for some time is to put them in water
and see II they will float. The infer.
tile eggs float and the eggs with
chicks in them sink to the bottom,
which is strong evidence that the in
fertile eggs have lost more moisture
than the fertile ones.

Singing Girls Of Korea.

One of the attractive personalities
encountered In Korea is the singing
girl At the social gatherings and fes-
rivals of the wealthy she serves the
guests and then sings. plays the guitar
and recites. These girls, although from
the humblest order, are well educated
from a Korean point of view and their
services are in great demand. They
can be hired singly or in numbers,
according to the needs Of the host,
and they enliyen many feast which
except for their presence, would be
simply en- excuse for gormandizing,
most Koreans being gross feeders
As religious and social festivals are
occurring constantly in Korea, the
pretty singing girls are kept busy, no
entertainment being thought worth
while without their presence.

Thouoht She Couldn't Live.

Moravia, N. Y, June 5.--Mr. Benja-

of this place, came very near losing
his wife and now that she is cured and
restored to good health his gratitude
knows no bounds. He says:
my wife has suffered everything
with Sugar Diabetes. She has been
sick four years. She doctored with
two good doctors but kept growing
worse. The doctors said she could
not live. She failed from 200 pounds
down to 100 pounds. This was her
weight when she began to use Dodd's
Kidney Pills. and now she weighs 1870,
is well and feeling stronger every
day.
"She used to have rheumatism so
bad that it would raise great bumps
all over her body and this is all gone
too.
"Dodd's Kidney Pills are a God.send
TO those who suffer as my wife did
They are all that saved her. We can't
praise them enough"

Shorthorn cows and feed them well.
while some other neighbors have
equally as good Shorthorns and make
them rustic for living They per

One man that | know OF has always
followed the practice OF making his
cows get along on grass in summer
and hay in winter, putting onto corn
only the cattle he is fitting for the
market. In the main he tries to sell
his calves before they are three
months old, for he has come to the
conclusion that for some reason he
is not able to make money out OF
them.
The other man feeds his cattle iD the
summer some gluten meal and other
forms of mill feed, besides succulent

as the pastures begin to get short in
the fall he puts them on a partial
grain feed, and this is increased in
the winter when they are on hay prin.
cipally. The result is that his cows
are always in good shape, and when
the calves come they are not only
vigorous but strong and have appe-
tiles that seem Unsuitable. They make
a rapid growth under almost any cir
cumstances while the calves from the
cows owned by the other man are thin
and seem to have the tendency born
in them to remain so. The buyers of
calves always try to pick up the
calves from the cows that have beer

calves at all It is at a great discount.
