 RAIDS BY SHERIFF Big Crowds Found In Two So-
 ciaI Clubs :. PLANNED VERY SECRETLY Gambling Paraphernalia Is Found. All Men Captured Are Put Under

 bition Laws.
PLANNED VERY SECRETLY

A very decided showing of it's hand was made last night by the Law and Order league when two raids were made by the sheriff's department on social clubs on warrants sworn out at the direction or the league and 56 men placed under ar rest on the charge of violating the pro hibition laws. The raids were made sim ultaneously and every person in both places was captured.
 One of the places was in the Allen building which runs through the block from First avenue to Morris avenue, next to the Morris hotel. It is 1908 Nor ris avenue and 1909 First avenue, and entrance to the club rooms raided was from the Morris hotel and from Morris avenue. A total of 33 men were arrested in this place.
 The other club raided is at 190611 Fourth avenue, known as the Hermitage place. Twenty-three men were in it at the time, all being arrested.

PLEASED WITH PROPERTY.

The directors of the Mcdonald Ely
will hold meeting in Salt Lake
within the next few days. with view
of outlining policy 10 be pursued in
early development of the property.
II is the intention of the company
to commence operations in the near
future. David Keith, one of the
principal holders in the company,
spent several days in the camp dur
ing the week and in company with
ID. C. Mcdonald, general manager,
made a thorough examination of the
ground and was very favorably i'm
pressed.
Mcdonald Ely is well equipped,
having two modern hoists, a good
compressor and all other equipment
necessary TO its development. In an
interview with Mr.. Mcdonald yes
terday he stated that the property
was in such condition that work
could be started on a big scale in
less than "a hours time.
The company has over 80 claims,
all of which are patented. Over
100000 has been expended in the
development and equipment of the
property, according TO Mr.. McDon-
aids statement. Low grade bodies
of copper ore have been opened up as
well as large bodies of low grade

this property in 1891, for the pur-
pose of extracting the gold values.
but with depth il was found that OPP

profit by the cyanide process, as the
presence of copper in the ore made it
too refractory. Work on the proper

sion. of which Senator Knute Nelson
of Minnesota is chairman. is fact that
inventory of natural resources has
demonstrated that the soil of the
United States as whole is not fall
ing off, but rather is in most parts
of the country, if not actually gain
ing, at least holding its own. The
report declares. however, that our
agricultural lands will soon be re-
CURED TO produce at least twice as
much as they do at present in order
TO meet the nations demand for food.
Such an Increase in crop production
is possible with proper methods.
There are in the United States
proper, according TO the report, a
trifie less than 100000 square
miles of land surface, of which a lit
tie more than one-fifth is under cul-
tivation. Abont quarter is covered
with forests, and smaller proper
ton with woods, young growth and
cut over land. With the exception of
waste lands and relatively small
amount of mineral lands, all the rest
is grazing land.
Some of the most significant facts
brought out were the following:
SOILS.
The soils of the United States, as
measured by the yield of crops per
acre, are not losing their fertility.
Taking the country as whole, nine
out of ten counties are either holding
their own in this respect or are gain
ing in fertility. This matter, one of
the first in importance 10 the coun-
try, has been thoroughly studied from
more than one point of view, and
the above statement Is made VII
confidence. Those parts of the coun-
try which are losing in fertility are
mainly in the newly settled regions
where the farmers are drawing from
the original fertility of the soil and
are not replacing it with fertilizers or
practicing the method of rotation of
crops. These areas are proportion
ately largest in the states of Mis-
sissippi. Louisiana. Texas. Arkansas.

MoNoPoLIZATION OF LANDS.

There is a tendency towards a
monopolization of farm lands, taken
as a whole, which in certain sections
is marked, notably in the states west
of the Mississippi river.
Among all the mineral lands, and
particularly the iron lands, there is
a marked tendency towards increase
in holdings. for economic reasons,
while among timberlands the pro-
gress towards monopoly is decided,
largely for speculative purposes.

| lands in the country.
The present low average yield is
in some part due to careless farming,
but more generally TO the fact that
land is cheap relative TO farm labor.
The highest yields per acre are found
in the older northeastern states,
where land is relatively high in
value, and in the arid regions of the
west where water, the essential. is
scarce.
The soils are not, however. pro-
ducing a half of what they should
produce or what they will soon be
required 10 produce if We would
avoid buying our foods elsewhere in
the future. The acreage of cultivated
land is increasing much more slowly
than the population and can never be
more than twice as great as at
present, while by the end of the pre-
sent century We shall probably have
three times as many people to feed
as now. The amount of our farm
crops is also increasing much more
slowly than our population. An in
crease in yield per acre is therefore
imperative. In that matter We are
far behind western Europe, and as
our soils are at least equally rich it
becomes a matter of care in the selec-
ton of seed. of fertilizing and of
