GRANITE CONTACT LOOKS GOOD
TO cOLLETT.

X. Il. Collect, formerly of Rhyolite,
but now of Spanish Fork. Utah, has
been in Rhyolite and adjacent camps
for two weeks, on mining business, in
which he is associated with prominent
men of his home state.
Mr.. Collett is a heavy stakeholder in
the Granite Contact Mines, company,
operating at Skidoo, and during the
past week made trip to the Contact
property. with a view of securing
lease on a block of ground If possible.
He reports the prospects as even
brighter than he had anticipated re-
turning more enthusiastic than ever.
Much of his time since coming back
has been spent in panning and assay
ing the samples taken from the six
main veins on the Contact ground
| He cannot hope to get more than one
lease from the Contact at present, and
what is puzzling him is to decide the
particular spot upon which to ask for
a lease. He was showing the various
paintings to- his friends, and concluded
each one was better than the proceeding
one.
Other parties are looking for leasing
ground on the Skidoo and Contact
properties, and it is understood that
both companies will consider leases
after reserving some of the main veins
for their own operations. Many min
ling men who have visited the Emigrant
Springs or Skidoo section. have pro
nounced it a good leasing camp.
The Contact has high grade silver a:
well as gold veins, some of the silveI
ore running as high as 400 ounces t.

east of them is the old Garibaldi silve
mine, which shipped silver ore to To-
Angeles, many years ago, on pack ami

CARE OF SCUASHES.

It is little late to tell what to do
with squashes when taken from the
field. but perhaps the Country
Gentleman's" suggestions may help
some one who is at loss to know now
best to care for them now that they
are gathered. OF course the plan is
intended for large growers, but the
idea may be modified for family use:
Use every possible care not to
bruise them or to break Off the stems,
as the slightest bruise will cause rot.
Some extensive growers on Long ISL
and have buildings expressly for them,
the temperature in which is kept as
near so degrees as possible Racks
four feet in width are put next 10
the sides CT the building, and eight
feet il width through The center of
tho building. TIE bottoms OF the
'acks are o. larTcv boards, which are
LET ? -out a. inch apart. to admit free
circulation CT air between the squash
es. The racks are sufficiently far
arer, for a singie layer, rs when
Piled one upon another they will be
very apt to rot. Give sg little ligat
as possible, and free ventilation over
head TO carry off all moisture.

AGE OF EGGS.

There Is simple method of ascer-
tanning the age of eggs, based upon
the fact that the air space at the
broad end of the egg increases with
It's age. Now, when the egg is placed
in a tumbler of water in which any
amount of common salt is dissolved
it will with increasing age tend even
more to assume position with it's
longitudinal axis in a perpendicular
direction. A freshly laid egg will
lie horizontally on the bottom Of the
vessel. An egg from three to five
days old will rise with its broad end,
so that its longitudinal axis is at an
angle Of twenty degrees. At the age
OF eight days the angle increases to
forty-five degrees, at the age OF two
weeks to about seventy-five degrees.
When the egg is more than a month
old it will float perpendicularly on
its small end, says Rural Magazine.

FEEDING A DAIRY COW,

A practical dairyman writes the
Jersey Bulletin on feeding his cows
He says: Our herd numbers in all
fifteen head. Our COWS are grained
the year round, have the run of pas
ture in summer, and are we'll housed
in winter. Our summer ration for a
dairy cow is barley cnop, about four
pounds per diem. In winter we use
shredded fodder for rougnage; grain
ration, sight pounds per day per cow
III mixture of cornmeal, barley meal,
malt sprouts and cottonseed meal,
mixed in the required proportions to
produce a feed which would analyze
one part of protein to six Of carbohy-
drates. Our cows are not allowed to
stand alongside a straw stack for
shelter when the thermometer shows
something little less than zero, but
are kept in the stable. and even wat,

DRAFT HORSE DEMANDED.

Here are some suggestions from
the London Farm and Home that are
as applicable here as across the
ocean.
1t says that 1.-The heavy draft horse
trade Is brisk for any animals Of
good class. There are constant calls
for really big, sound, handsome wag-
on horses, standing ICY hands high,
on stout, bony legs, with plenty Of
feather. Any farmers having such
as these may, make a hatful of money
Of them, if they turn them adrift
promptly to get fat on some good
keep. The special big markets will
come on about the middle OF Novem-
Der, and then is the time to offer
sucl stock. Understood, middling-
shaped animals hang as aeayy as lead
on the markets now, and are likely
to. Again, farmers should look we'll
TO their younger horse stock for sale
this back end. l allude to two-year-
olds, yearling and foais. High con-
dition-that is, plenty of iesh-goes
for a good deal, and is said not I'M
commonly TO deceive the best judges
exLant.'

A GOOD RULE FOR STABLES

The following is one of the rules
Of a prominent livery stable in this
city, where horses Of many wealthy
men are boarded: mo man will be
employed who drinks Intoxicating
drinks. No man must speak loud to
any one of the horses, or in the stable
where they are. Horses of good blood
are nervous, and loud, excited con-
versation is felt by every horse in
the stable that hears it, Excited
words addressed to one horse are felt
by every other horse that hears them,
and keep them all nervous and I'M
easy. No man may use profane Ian
gUage in the hearing OF the horses 4"
If such a rule prevailed in all the
livery and many other stables
throughout the country, the welfare
Of all concerned would be promoted.
Let it be generally adopted.
