NEW HYDRAULIC POWER
PLANT AT ATLANTA

A. R. Payne, mechanical engi-
neer of Salt Lake City, returned
from Atlanta last week, where he
erected $50 h. p. hydraulic power
plant for the Monarch Mining Co.
In view of the fact that the i'm
mense amount of machinery for this
plant had to be carried across the
mountains, its completion within
the 90 days called for III the con-
tract was matter of congratula-
ton, and as Daniel Kirby, local
manager said, Chas. Moore & Co.
of San Francisco, who furnished
the machinery, made no mistake in
assigning to Mr.. Jayne the task
of erecting same. Upon his re-
turn to Salt Lake City, he will
make prepaI ations for trip to So
nora, Mexico, where he will erect
a 1O00-ton concentrating mill. Mr..
Jayne was very much pleased with
Idaho mountain scenery, but die
not relish the idea of shovelins
his way out of Atlanta.

TO STEAM PLOW
SEEMS MOST PRACTICAL
Method of Clearing and Cu|tivating Large
Tracts Discussed by Experienced
PIOw Manufacturer.

Wherever in this and similar To-
calities irrigation has assumed large
proportions, one of the most per-
picking problems has been the sue
cessful removal of the sage brush.
Several methods are now in vogue,
but they are all too slow and rather
expensive. OF course in the case
of the man with only five 10 ten
acres of land and all the time need
ed at his disposal, the old fash
toned way is all right, but to the
man who wishes to put under cul-
tivation say from one hundred to
five hundred acres or more, the out
look under existing conditions is
discour aging, to say the least.
Mr.. ]. w. MCGUIRE, of the Nc
GuiIe Steam Plow Co of Minneap-
oils, man of years of practical cx-
perience in building steam plows
for use in the greatly varying con-
ditions to be found in Minnesota,
the Dakotas and Canada, has been
here the past week at the request of
a number of parties interested to
investigate local conditions. The
sagebrush is an OBSTACLE which Mr.
MCGUIRE has not before been asked
to conquer, and he desired per
sonal knowledge of the ''critter'
before making any positive state
ments as to what his company
plow could do. While he believes
his plow will come nearer doing tn
work required than any other ma
chine built, yet he frankly state
that to successfully turn the soil tn
brush must first be removed, and h
believes that this can be done i
the dry season, when the stalk
are brittle, by linking together fou
30-foot steel rails and draggin
them over the ground, breaking tn
stalks and tops and making it d
easy matter to burn them, aftt
which steam plow could turn III
soil at the rate of about iorty acre
day.
Mr.. MCGUIRE believes that a ma
owning such plow would be ]
the same position as the parti,
c owning separator outfits in II
u eastern states he would find h
e machine in demand wherever irr
gated land is available, with tn
II great advantage in his favor, tn
'e he could operate il practically {
n the year around.

StOp-0yer Privileges.

The Oregon Short Line has in
stituted new arrangement which
cannot fail to be of interest to the
travelling public. Heretofore eXcur-
sion tickets sold to Chicago and the
east daily from Mountain Home
have called for continuous passage,
no stop-overs being permitted. This
ruling applied to travel in both di-
rections between Idaho points and
Missouri river points. Effective
February tickets sold between Ida
no and Missouri, river points and
Chicago, st. Paul and Minneapolis
will have 40 days transit limit in
each direction. A person holding
an excursion ticket sold under this
arrangement can stop over in Wy
oming, Kansas, Nebraska, Colorado
and Utah, while travelling west OF
east. This system of permitting
stop-over privileges will be appre-
ciated by westerners, with relatives
and friends living in the middle
western states.

Great Show Coming.

Allen Doone, the great Irish actor
and his fine company will appear in
this city in Kerry Cow, Satur-
day night, January 10Th. That is
the announcement made by Manager
King, but many who are at all pos
ted could hardly credit it as being
so, but it is and this is the only and
original company that have ap-
peared in all the large cities on
their recent visit west. OF course
Manager King has to guarantee
this attraction good ronud fig
ure to get them to stop off here,
but he is doing il, and this COM
pany will appear at the opera house
as announced above. Kerry Cow
is universally known throughout
the United States and Canada and
there is hardly a doubt but some
one here has seen it some time or
another, and can testify to its
worth. Manager King is to be con-
graduated on securing. this attrac-
ton, and considering that he is
guaranteeing them to stop here, nc
one should see him lose money or
his risky venture, but by all mean:
should save their spare change fol
this especial occasion, as it will b'
the event of the season. 1t must b.
remembered that these kind of at
fractions don't come often, ant
should not be allowed to go by with
out crowded houses. The price o
tickets for this engagement will b
one dollar for the best seats. Ihi
attraction plays all of the large
cities at ST.. so prices. All foldin
chairs IS cents-$100.

The Arkansas Hog.

Arkansas has greater variety OF
hogs and less pork and lard than
any state in the Union. Ain aver
age hog in Arkansas weighs about
fourteen pounds dressed, with its
head on, and about six pounds and
a half with it off. 1t can outrun
a greyhound, jump a rail fence,
climb like a parrot can live on grass
on grass roots and rabbit tracks. 1t
hasn't much tail nor briStle, but
plenty of gall. 1t will whip a
wolf or bear in fair fight. 1t is
called razorback because it is
shaped like a sunfish. In hunting
razorbacks they always shoot at
them sideways, for there is not a
ghost of show to bit them other
wise, any more than to shoot at q
split shingle. 1t can drink milk
out of a quart jar on account of its
long thin head. This type of razor
back is known as the stone hog,
/ because its head is SO heavy and its
nose so long that it balances up be-
hind. The owner of this type oi
hog usually ties stone to its tai
to keep it from overbalancing anc
breaking it's neck while running
If the stone is too heavy it will pull
the skin over its eyes and it will &C

Wagons and Good Roads.

The Indiana Farmer announces
that the vide tire wagons have done
much for the good roads movement
in that state. II says that the wide
tires lessen the draft and tighten
the load for horses. This has been
demonstrated in numerous expert
mental tests. The b.oad tires act
as oilers in compacting the track
and assist in bettering the condition
of roads destroyed by the old mar
row tire sytsem of wagon building.
The editor states that the move is
commendable and he hopes that
the day will come when the friend
I ly servicable and humane wide tire
shall prevail on all our roads. -
Road making has been one of the
leading subjects for consideration
by farmers and those interested in
handling farm products since the
first markets were established. The
question of cheap transportation
from the fields of producers to the
marts of consumers has troubled the
minds of representative men in all
sections where agriculture is inn
portant. Many states expend large
sums every year in macadamizing
the public highways. In some Sec
J tions the expense is partly returned
) by the use of toll gates, where all
: parties must pay for the privilege
: of riding or driving over the good
) roads. That has not solved the
{ problem.
E The roads must be we'll built and
q kept in complete repair 10 give per-
S feet satisfaction. One of the worst
r enemies to good roads is the narrow
2 tired wagon. 1t cuts deep holes in
c the bed and when winter rains
n set in those places develop into
r mud holes. To remedy this a gen
e eral campaign for wide tires has
IS been started in many agricultural
sections In sothe places the farm
n ers are giveh a bounty for dis
n carding old Wagons and substitut.
IS ing the wide tired ones. Some
,e counties offsr"'various rewards fol
is the use of wide tires. In numerou:
j. ways the work''oY getting wide tire.
is on the road IS being pushed to ;
al successful terfhihation.
Ii Here is an opportunity for th
good road enthusiasts to do SOM
missionary work among the farm
ers. Wide tired wagons cost 1ittl
more than the old style. They ar
y, more desirable for road and horse
lg than the narrow tired ones. VIII
ig not inducerthe people to use then
m exclusively This is an age c
I'd new things. Old things are grad
re ually passing away as new inven
OF tions come to the front. Why nc
s, apply the iule to wagons and &c

mt tires and giving them a thoroug
