In 1885 I began to farm on a sandy slightly rolHng place.

 l followed the old way of early fer tiiizing, planting high, working rapid ly and buying corn. It always made big, fourishing stalk. and was an annual joy in the spring, and in the fall was In annual sorrow. I knew that the farmer who did not make provisions always failed sooner or lat CT. and in my case all signs pointed to 1t being sooner. So applied more fer tilizer at planting times. and gave it more work. It grew still larger than before, and made even less, and l con tinued to buy corn. I was getting but of trouble nearly as fast as the frog was getting out of the well.
 I had seen real farmers make more corn on much smaller stalks. I had l laughed al them in the spring, and they l at me in the fall, they always, how ever. laughing last So profiting by their success, as we'll as my failure I began to plant lower, and fertilize i later, but 1t was not until I had all

MONTANA ONLY THIRD.

Arizona first, Michigan second and
Montana third in copper production in
1907. That's the corerct standing of
the three leading copper producing sec.
tions Of the world at the end of the last
year, according to the Engineer & Min.
ing Journal, the accepted authority on
mining. Montana which was for years
the leader in the production of the
red metal, is thus robbed of even sec.
ond place in the procession, which is
taken by Michigan, where the eur
tailment during the last quarter of the
year, just ended was hardly noticeable.
The output in Montana in 1906 was
99,S50,000 pounds and last year it
dropped to 27,663,OO0 pounds, a re-
duction which was much greater than
the falling off of the total output of the
United States for the year. The reduc.
ton in the total output of the United
States according to the figures of the
Engineer Mining Journal was some.
thing over 100000 pounds, the pro.
duction for 1907 being sos, lO4, 900 as
against sl7,62o,OOO pounds in 1906.
The advancement of Arizona to the
premier position in the list of great
mineral producers has attracted much
attention and much favorable comment
has resulted. The FL Paso Herald in an
editorial on the subject attempts to
make comparisons of the copper camps
of Arizona and Montana to the ad.
vantage Of the territory. 1t says in
part:
As the territorial newspapers say,
this is great event for Arizona. The
territory has taken first place, and it
will hold it for some time, if not per-
manently. Arizona has a great many
well known but undeveloped copper dis
tricts, while Montana has few; Butte
corresponds to Bisbee, but Montana
has no Globe, or Clifton, or Morenci, or
Jerome, or Kelvin, or Casa Grande.
Arizona has scarcely begun turning out
copper. What the world wants, I'm
copper product, it can get in Arizona,
and in the case of many Arizona prop
critics, producing costs are lower than
Montana's.
