The Prospector and His BGTr0.

II have noticed" said the pros
 pector to his burro, "that you in-
 variably follow a path or trail
 when we are going over a moun-
 tain or through canyon, the in
 ference being that you are we'll
 aware of the old maxlom that "the
 longest way around is the short est way home." In this you are wise, according to my way of thinking, even if you are lacking in good sense in many other re- spects. With you it is follow the trail;;" and this calls to my mind another piece of good advise that all mining men should heed, and heed we'll. This is ''follow your ore."
 This advise is one that old time mining men should remember. It is not necessary to counsel the tenderfoOt what to do in this mat ter, as he will hardly leave new found ore body long enough to eat or sleep, and he is so afraid that he will loose it that he would like to put it in the bank vault ol jail to keep in safe over night; and you can wager your whiskers that he will follow it until it has developed into a great producing mine or until it has pinched out.
 ''I see that you think it is inn as to whether or not the ore body is followed, or whether it is allowed to take care of itself as 1t has been doing ever since your forefathers were nothing more than a cross between a jack rabbit and a mountain rat |; but you do not attach the importance to mining operations that I do, neither do you realize the fact 1 that your daily allowance of bar | ley and sour dough is dependent | upon the success 1 meet with in ny mining operations, but 1 want to tell you that many fail are in mining is due to the fact l that the claim owner, the mining company and the mine owner fail 5o start right.

TIMELY HINTS
 FOR FARMERS.
A Lesson in Intensive Farming by R. ii. Forbes, Director ard Chemist of Agricultural
 Experiment Station.
University of Arizona, January l5, 1907.

u, 1 January l5, 1907.
 Just west Of Yuma, Arizona, in the alluvial 1 flood plain of the Colorado, lies a little farm of - acres which on May l, 1905, was virgin 1 brush and creosote bushes. The original purpose Of the tract was for planting selected varieties Of date palms imported by the U. S. department of Agriculture from the Old World. The Experiment. station, May ?, be- gan preparing the ground, and on May 20 the work of levelling, bordering and irrigaGng the tract and the planting Of l52 palms was completed.
 THE PLAN OF WORK.
 Recognizing, however, that a farmer with his living to make meantime, cannot afford to wait for an orchard to come into bearing, 1t was planned to plant crops for quick re- turns between the tree-rowS thus putting the work on a feasible basis from the small farm CTS point of view. In order to economize ground the irrigating borders were so placed as to coincide with the rows of palms, thus utilizing space otherwise usually wasted The tract was divided by the borders into lands, for the most part one-half an acre in size. lrrigating water from the Colorado Valley F. X l. Canal was obtained in the cus- i tOmary manner, and t. l.. Crane, himself a Yuma Valley farmer, undertook the care of what was nicknamed our play farln.'' In size, as well as in the intensive character Of the work planned, this farm' is the op- posite of the average holdings of this locality. The prevailing crops of the region are alfalfa, corn, barley, and foTages in general, compa ra- lively little attention being given to vege- tables and fruits. Withal, the cost of evelling land in this region is high, rarely falling be- low twenty dollars an acre at current prices for labor and teams. Moreover, the cost, ex- elusive of maintenance, of the Government irrigating system now under construction will be about S3.50 an acre annually for ten years To meet these and other heavy items of expense in connection with the establish ment of a farm in this region intensive crops of a more remunerative character than those now in vogue, are essential. It was partly therefore, as an object lesson bearing upon these financial aspects of the general situa- tion, that this cultural work was planned.
