THE REUNION.

The attendance on the opening
day was hardly up to the first
day of last year.
Of veterans present, those reg
istering with Clerk j. M
Vansant numbered IS. OF these
some 40 were members of Stone
wall Jackson Camp, the others
visitors. All were Confederates
except 90.
1t was eleven o'clock the first
day before assembly call was
sounded and the forenoon pro
gram had to be cut short accord
ingIy.
l.. f. Cowling, in behalf of
Canyon City, welcomed the vet
Grams and he did it nicely. Mrs.
John Hibdon, in behalf Of Robert
E. Lee Chapter L. D. c., also
welcomed the old soldiers. Her
address was excellent and met
with hearty applause. The vet
Grams responded thru their com
mander, Capt. Bobbitt, who in
one of his characteristic talks
had many good things to say, not
only of the speakers preceding
him, but of Canyon City and its
people.
The night entertainment Mon
day, under the capable manage
ment of Mrs. John Hibdon, was,
as expected it would be, real
good.
The drills were well executed,
the songs appropriate for the oc-
caSiOn and the recitatiOnS were
far beyond what is usually eX-
pected from young people with
out practice behind the footlights.
The wind interfered with the
hearing of many in the audience
and the shower of rain, for a
while, almost brought about a
stampede, but all went well in
the end and the program was
finished to the satisfaction of the
large crowd present.
The leading feature of Wednes-
day morning was the address by
Major f. G. Gordon. He said
much that related to the war, its
contest for principles which he
declared were still a living issue,
and his "reminiscences of the
fratricidal conflict itself brought
tears to the eyes of many of the
old veterans present. 1t was a
speech well delivered, one that
struck the right chords of hu-
man feeling and at the conclusion
of it he received the hearty con
gratulations of all the old vetcr-
ans within reach.
Wednesday evening addresses
were made by District Attorney
Bishop and Rev. w. II. Younger.
Both were good.
The third day, Thursday : pro
ceedings, will be published next
week.
The agricultural exhibits, while
not as numerous rs on one form
er occasion, were exceptionally

To Make Poor Farm Rich.


THE progressive farmer rotates his
crops. He tile-drains his land. He
keeps dairy cows or mutton sheep or
both. He breeds draft horses and does
farm work with brood mares and grow
Ing colts. He improves the power OF
the soil by growing legumes."
James Wilson. secretary of agricul-
cure, in the above words sums up the
vital principles of good farming. He
declares that the people of the United
States have wasted their inheritance of
land and wood, and the productiveness
Of the soil near the great centers of
population has steadily decreased. We
have been a nation of soil robbers. but
there is at last an awakening-slOwb but

Farmers of all sections are wanting
TO know how to stop the leaks and in
crease the deposits of their business and
the government is helping them in many
ways. There are over 1900 persons
employed in the Department of Agri-
culture and 1000 of these are scientists,
ing the farmer solve the problems
which cOnfronts him. There are sixty
five land grant colleges with 10000 stu
dents In agriculture. These boys are
learning that rotation Of crops is neces-
sary, tnat live stock must be raised TO
make manure. of which there is never
enough.
They are finding out that young
grasses and legumes are natures per
feet ration for domestic animals. Milk
and meat and work are had more
cheaply from the pasture than from
other sources. Pasture land increases
as farm help becomes scarce. Mutton
sheep are suggested when labor is dear.
Cultivated crops reduce organic matter
in the soil and render 1t unfit for profit
able growing. Pasturing replaces or
ganic matter When good crops Of
grain or roots are wanted the pasture,
plOwed and reduced IN season, is the
best place to get them. Western farm
ers In the corn belt get their heavy
crops from pasture land.
WIN the help OF improved machinery
the progressive individual farmer Is
producing much more than the average
Turner did generation ago and men Of
this class are keeping up the productive
qualities Of their farms.
The neglected lands OF the eastern
and middle states can be brought back

that the farmers Of Iowa use posts hav-
ing value exceeding this enormous
sum each year to maintain the fences
on the 250OO,O00 acres of improved land
in the State.
In making these estimates, H. P
Baker, professor of forestry in Iowa
State Agricultural College, figured that
the farms Of Iowa required 7S,000OO0
posts for fences, or 1000 to the square
mile Placing the value of the posts at
10 cents each, the cost of renewals ev-
cry eight or nine years, which is the
life of the post, is $11,71S,000, making
an annual bill for renewals of ST ,465.-
600
Like many other farming States.
Iowa has lack of fence post material.
but there is little excuse for this CON
dition, according to the foresters who
have made studies in the State. A prop
erly managed forest plantation will
produce, when the trees have reached
post size, 1900 posts three to five inches
in diameter per acre: thus. it would
take 22.3J0 acres about every ten years
to grow the necessary posts to supply
the State. Iowa is said to have 200
600 acres Of planted timber, and yet the
fence post supply is insufficient II
properly cared for. many Of these plan
tations can be made to produce moro.
timber. and thus insure the future post
supply.
These 100000 acres are not at present
furnishing the posts which ii is esti-
mated can actually be grown on 22.35O
acres Of properly handled forest land.

CHAPTER II.-(Continued.)

At five o'clock on the afternoon of the
lay after Mr.. Conrad's death. Mr.. Drum
mond entered the house, which was on
The opposite side of the street from the
store. This was the supper hour, and
upper was ready upon the table.
A single glance was sufficient to show
that Mr.. Drummond was not a man to
indulge in luxurious living. There was a
plate of white bread. cut in thin slices,
4 small plate of butter. half a pie, and
a plate of cake. A small pitcher of milk,
4 bowl of coarse brown sugar, and a pot
pr the cheapest kind of tea completed the
preparations for the evening meal. Ger
iainly there was nothing extravagant
about these preparations but Mr.. Drum
mond thought otherwise. His attention
was at once drawn TO the cake, and in
stantly frown gathered upon his face.
Are you going to have company to-
aight, Mrs. Drummond?" he asked.
Not that I know of. answered his
Eife, in some surprise
Then why is it that you have put both
pie and cake on the tablef"
The cake is a cheap kind"
NO cake is cheap. Mrs. Drummond.
take it you used eggs, butter and sugar
IN making it. You are probably not
aware that all these articles are very dear
a. present. Until they get lower we need
not have cake. except when company is
present. Take away the cake. if you
please. You can save ii for Sunday even
ing"
Il am afraid it will be dried up by that
time"
IF il is dry. you can steam il. ] have
continually TO check you in your extrava-
CANT tastes. Cake and pie. indeed If
you had your way. you would double my
household expenses
Mrs. DrummOnd rose from the table,
and meekiy removed the offending cake.
Just then the third and only other mem
Der of the family entered.
This was Joshua DrummOnd. the only
son, now eighteen years Of age though be
looked scarcely more than sixteen. He in
berited his fathers meanness. but not his
trugality. he was more self-inoulgent
and, though he grudged spending money
for others. was perfectly ready 70 spend
A. much "a he could get hold Of for him

Mr.. Drummond, l believe"
''Yes, Jacob Drummond of Stapieton.
You have probably heard your father
speak of ne?'
Yes. sir" said Walter.
Il came as soon as | could after get
ting the telegram. l left my business to
take care of itself. | wanted to offer you
my sympathy on your sad loss"
Mr. Drummond's words were kind,
though the reference to his sacrifice in
leaving his business might have been as
well left out. Still Walter could not feel
as grateful as he wanted to do. Somehow
he didn't fancy Mr.. Drummond
You are very kind" he said.
Il mean TO be. You know I'm your
nearest relation now. / truly feel for you
in your desolate condition, and though it
may not be the right time to say it.

over, you will accompany me home and
share our humble hospitality. Mrs. Drum
mond joins me in the invitation"
Il have not had time to think of future
arrangements" said Walter: ''but l thank
you for your invitation.
MY son Joshua, too" said Mr.. Drum
mond. lis longing to make your acquaint-
ance. He is older than you. but not much
larger. Joshua il eighteen, but he will
make a very pleasant companion for you.
Let me hope that you will accept my in
vitatiOn."
Thank you. Mr.. Drummond; / will
consult my friends about it,

TO ask for board" thought Mr.. Drum
mond. IF / am his guardian / can fix
that 10 suit myself A hundred thousand
dollars would make me rich man. That
is. ] could m axe money from it without
injuring the boy"
Mr.. Drummond asked few more ques-
tons about Mr.. Conrads sickness and
death. Walter answered them. but did
not think it necessary TO speak of his
losses by the mining company. Mr.. Drum
mond was stranger, and not a man to
inspire confidence. So Walter told as lit
tie as he could. At length the visitor,
having exhausted inquiries, rose.
4 shall be here tomorrow" he said
Il shall return TO Stapleton after the
ceremony. ] hope you will make up your
mind 10 60 back with me"

swered Walter, doubtfully.

cept your kind invitation"
Nr. Drumm0nd shook our herOs hand
alphabetically, and at length Withdrew.
As be went down the avenue he took
backward glance at the handsome man
sion IN which his cousin had lived.
That boy owns all that property" he
said, half obviously, 'and never worked

Changes in Electrical Wiring.

has recommended to the Commissioners
several changes in reference to the cleo
trical wiring installation in buildings
owned or leased by the District govern
ment At present it is necessary for the
District building inspector to pass upon
the plans for all such work and to ap-
prove the appropriation of money TO Fay
for such work. The electrical engineer
does not consider this an advisable meth
cd and desires the Commissioners TO ar
range matters so that such installations
be removed from the supervision of the
