LOST FOR THREE DAYS.
John Ross, Of Dixie, Has Terri
BILE Experience.


A dispatch from Dixie to the
Mining News at Elk City says, in
part:
John Ross, 65 years of age, q
we'll known prospector and miner
Of this district, was lost for three
days in the wild country along
Salmon river last week, and it is
the indomitable will of the veteran
only that enabled him to live
through the terrible experience and
be able to tell his friends about it.
"Mr. Ross is familiar with a
great scope Of country around
Dixie. He has been living on the
Joe Eakin ranch on Salmon river,
81 miles from here. The trail from
here to the Eakin ranch has been
travelled but little the past winter,
and while on his way to this place
Mr.. Ross lost his bearings. For
three days and nights he waded
through snow which at times was
waist deep, and had no food of any
kind and not any matches with
which to start fire to dry his
clothes and rest during the night.
A binding snowstorm added to
The lost mans difficulty and dis
comfort, wetting his clothes and
'bscuring the way.
"Mr. Ross reached Dixie the
evening OF the fourth day Of his
vanderings, with scarcely strength |
'nough to explain the cause of bis
'aggard appearance. He is now
It the hotel here and will require
long rest before starting back to
lis home on the Salmon river.o

ORCHARD PRACTICE.

Large Crops Heavy Drain ON the
Vitality of Trees.
Many persons do not understand
that the production of large crops of
apples, pears, peaches, ETC., is heavy
draft on the vitality of the trees, and
if nothing is done to increase the fer
tility of the soil the trees must de-
cline and finally die. Any one who
has grown fruit for some length of
time must have observed this. The
regular cultivation of the soil during
the first half Of the growing season
will undoubtedly be beneficial, but this
Is allowable only on ground that is
level or nearly SO and even then will in
time cease to be efficacious.
To Keep Up Soil Fertility.
There are two ways to keep up the
fertility: First, sowing crimson clover,
cowpeas or some cover crop at the last
cultivation, to be turned under the
next season; second, applying stable
manure. The latter is what may be
done now. and there is nothing better.
Any one who has plenty of stable ma
nure can keep his orchard in good con-
dition. 1t may be hauled right out of
the stable or the COW shed and spread
on the surface of the ground-not right
around the trunks of the trees, where
there are few feeding roots, but out
ten feet or more under the branches.
advises National Stockman and Farm
er.
A Good Plan.
And it is a good plan in such cases
to make light applications, going over
the ground several times at intervals
of five or six weeks.

KEPT IN AN UNCLEAN DAIRY,

cows had been upon pasture for some
weeks. They would naturally be clean
er than when the tests were made in
March, because that date represented
the end Of the winter season. The
spring rains and living upon the clean
pasture produced more sanitary con-
dition than sleeping on filthy bedding
IN dark barns. The clean COW tested,
on Aug. 10, GOO bacteria per cubic
centimeter, and the other one tested
100000 on July 20. One way to ac-
count for this great variation is the
difference in stables and surroundings
at milking time, says Kimbalrs Dairy

is perhaps no better bred than her Sis
ter, but she looks a whole lot better.
Her product is more desirable. too. be-
cause by actual test it was found that
the bacteria in her milk was much less
than in the milk of the other cow. The
unkempt COW looks as if she might be
affected with tuberculosis. As mat
ter of fact. she is healthy enough, but
the stable in which she was kept and
tie care which she got necessarily gave
her this appearance.
On March "a her milk was tested
and showed II, 5O9,O 900 bacteria per GU
bic centimeter. A cubic centimeter is
about I5o0 of a pint. The other was
tested on March 81 and showed 1850
bacteria per cubic centimeter. These
figures are hard to comprehend but
bacterial tests do not lie.
Another series of tests was made on
July % and Aug. Is. At this time the
