WORK 1T CANANEA 2,50O MEN EMPLOYED
f No Unforeseen Difficulties Arise, Whole Plant Wai
 Soon Be in Operation.

If no unforeseen difficulties arise the Cananea smelter will be running full time within two months, with ev- cry furnace working" Dr. L. D. Rick etts, general manager of the Greene Cananea mines, is quoted as saying at Fl Paso on Tuesday evening. Dr. Ricketts passed through Bisbee yes Tterday morning en route to Cananea from Chicago, where he has been the past two weeks in conference with stockholders of the company. The doctor stated that the Chicago confer ence was merely a discussion of the 're-opening of the Cananea camp and was of no interest
 At present there are four furnaces working, according to Dr. Ricketts, with about 2,500 men employed. This force of men will probably be increas- ed to about $500 or 4,000 within a short time The original force em- ployed at the smelter and mines be- fore the shut down was 5000. Since that time, however. modern machin- cry has been installed which will do away with the labor of a great number of men.
 Dr. Ricketts said that there were enough men in the camp at present to fill all the positions his company could offer and that he would not ad- wise laborers to go to the camp. Be cause of the fact that the report has gained circulation that the mines and shelter were open. hundreds of labor CTS have come into camp and We have been unable to give them employment, with the result that many of them have suffered" Dr. Ricketts said.

MUCH WANTED MAN
 IS BURT ALVORD
Mexico Would Like to Have Him on a Charge of
 Highway Robbery,

Jamaica having been given as the address Of Burt Alvord, the Arizona bandit, it may be the Mexican gov eTnment will ask the Jamaica author ities for his eXtTadition. Alyord and Billy Stiles are wanted in Mexico for highway robbery committed about four years ago, when these outlaws held up one of the Tener brothers near HeTmOsillo and secured two bars of bullion valued at $S,000. A portion of the booty was subsequent ly uHearthed in the mountains south of Naco.
 Aivord and Stiles were in camp west of Naco when the officers cap- tured Alvord, Stiles making his es- cape at the time. Alvord was sen tenced at Tombstone, on one indict- ment, receiving two years in the pen itentiary. He was released a few days ahead of the time the Mexican officers had expected and they depart ed for home greatly disappointed. Ina prison officials made the state ment that Alyord got every day that was due him, less credits.
 Alvord was thought to have visited California after his release, but those who had beer keeping watch for him assert that he quit the United States in short order after leaving Yuma.
 It is understood that the United States marsIals office secured a war rant for Alyord's arrest, service to be made upon his disqkarge from the territorial prison Here again it seems there was a miscarriage, just as it happened to the Mexican off cers.
 Burt Alvord, prior to his connec- tion with the Cochise station hold Up in September, 1893, an incident many returning members of the A. O. 'U. W, who dad been to Silver City, win vividly remember, was a con stable in Wilcox. He was arrested and lodged in jail at Tombstone from which he twice escaped with Stiles and others as his departing eonpan- ions. Alvords arrest near Naco was accompanied with wounds inflicted by the officers when he endeayOred to get away. 4 brief trial on ore count followed and two years time at Yuma was the outcome Credits, as stated, let aim out earlier.
 Alvord was separated from his wife here, the latter marrying a railroader. The couple reside in this city,

FLOOD AT PRESCOTT
 DOES MUCH DAMAGE
Granite Creek 0vefIowed Its Banks, Carrying Away a
 Bddge-Heavy Rain.

PRESCOTT, July 29.-Preseott was visited by one of the heaviest rainfalfs in it's history yesterday afternoon The downpour started at noon, last ing three quarters of an hour with out intermission and flooding the streets. Water was kept out of sey- eral business houses on Montezuma street with difficulty. Granite creek oyerflowed it's banks, carrying away
 the bridge south of town and flooding
 the residences on North Granite and
 Mccormick streets.
 r For almost an hour the torrent
 threatened several houses in North
 Prescott near the railroad bridge. One
 Mexican family was isolated and the children of three other families were
 carried through the raging torrent to a place of safety by neighbors. Three
 houses, occupied by Chinese, between
 Granite and MOntezuma streets, imme. diately south of the railroad track were submerged to a depth of four feet. Two of the Chinese residents were caught in one of the houses. They escaped when the waters sub
 sided foot, wading the street, carry ing their pocketbooks in their mouths and shoes and clothing in their hands.
 The property loss was big.

MARKET APATHETIC
 BUSINESS SLOWER
Stocks Are Being Supplied to Meet Demands at the
 Advanced Prices,

NEW YORK, July 29.-Interest in the stock market became apathetic today. There was material contract ion in the volume of business. At tempts to advance prices demonstrate ed that stocks are being supplied to meet demands at advanced prices.
 Some disturbing effect was pro- dIced by the confused reports cir culated of a reported accident to W. K. Vanderbilt. There was a waning of interest in rumors concerning an adjustment in the affairs of the Gould railroad properties. Information on the subject consisted of rumors that bankers were in consultation over de- tails of the plan. With the decline in activity in stocks there came a lang uishing of interest in the bond market which was made the cause of puzzled complaints by present bond dealers.

A PREVENTABLE LOSS.

Experiments conducted by the de-
partment of soils 'of the Ohio expert
ment station show that in a ten year
average manure that is left exposed
to the weather and allowed to leech
for period of three months is worth
S215 per ton measured in crops and
worth 1926 per ton on the same basis
if APPLIED to the land fresh. A little
work with q lead pencil on this propo-
sition shows that the actual loss in
value per ton during three months is
81 cents, or 81 cents per month, while
with 100 tons of manure the loss would
= be $50. or the value of an average acre
Of land. 1t Is in the face of such fig
ures as these that one is able to grasp
the statement of Professor Hopkins of
the Illinois Agricultural college, who
after careful study placed the loss to
the farmers of the United States from
this one cause at annually close to
$700.O00.OOO. The thoughtful farmer
should look into the matter and find
out If he is one of the guilty ones and
following method in the handling of
his homemade fertilizers which is
helping to make this enormous loss.

THE WHY or IT,

The reason why some farms main
tain their fertility and even improve
with years of use and why others
possessing as great original fertility
become virtually bankrupt in a COM
paratively short time is pointed out
quite plainly in the following figures,
which show the amount of fertility
which goes from farm in the sale of
the different products. In $1,000 of
wheat there is removed S240 Of fertil-
fly; in $1,000 of beef. $50; in $1,000 of
pork, $50; in $1,000 of horses, S3o; in
$1,000 of milk. S1.10; in $1,000 of but
ter, S1.25 worth of fertility From
this it is plain to be seen why grain
raising and selling deplete the fertility
of farms and why those sections where
dairying is carried on extensively are
among the most fertile of the whole
country and grow richer rather than
poorer as the years go by. There is
something here for the average farmer
to ponder over.
The Democratic advocate. [volume] (Westminster, Md.) 1865-1972, 1908-07-10
SHOULD FIGURE 1T OUT.


In spite of the fact that dairying, as
a rule, is a paying proposition and
those sections of the country where
dairying Is carried on extensively are
the most prosperous, it is more than
likely that whole lot Of farmers are
conducting this branch Of work at an
absolute loss. Whether this Is the case
or not may be determined by taking
lead pencil and doing little figuring.
10 the amounts received from the sale
Of milk or cream during the year
should be added the value Of butter,
cream and milk consumed by the fam
lily as well as the skimmilk fed to ami
mails on the farm, which would be
worth 20 to 40 cents per" hundred
weight. If these items added up do
not give total greater than the num-
Der of cows kept through the year
times $50, which is generally accepted
as the cost of cows keep for year,
it is a pretty safe conclusion that the
dairy is being operated at loss, bar
ring the benefit which the cows are to
Ne farm as manufacturers Of manure.
VI SOulcCb chOUAo hoe OS -
nored. In other words, If dairy of
ten cows does not give total revenue
of better than $500 for the year it
goes without saying that there is no
profit. This condition of affairs may
be due to the fact that the milk ca
pacity Of the whole herd is low both
in quantity and quality. 1t is more
likely that some individuals Of the herd
are fairly good mixers, while there are
other individuals that are not paying
for their keep in which case they
should be weeded out by the Babcock
test. 1T is possible, too, that the dairy
is not giving the revenue it should be-
cause the cows are insufficiently fed
and are given rough rather than kind
and careful treatment. It may be one
or all of these causes which serve to |
make the dairy unprof1ta: '; but, wheth-
er one or all. thcv should be sought
out and corrected so far as pos
sible.

CHRONICALLY BEHiNDHAND.

There are occasional cases in the av-
erage season when belated farm work
is traceable to unfavorable weather or
hard luck in other ways. but in the ma
jority OF cases this being behindhand
with WORK is likely to be sort of
chronic condition with men of the
slack, slow type or those who have
more work on their hands than they
can attend to with help that may be
available. 1t is noteworthy as proving
the above statement that certain farm
ers Of community are almost always
well up or ahead with their work.
while others can be counted on to be
about so much behind. In period Of
years this habit of being ahead or be-
hind with the farming operations has
a great deal to do with the value as
well as the volume of crop returns
and the size of fellows bank &C
count.
