Beatty, Johnnie and then cross to
Phoebe, the old-new camp. From
Phoebe he will go to Salt Lake, from
which point he will tour along the state
line in the east, afterwards going north
to Ely, Reno, Carson and Virginia
City. He will cover the entire state
and make thorough search for every
grade, class and description Of ore.
Besides collecting specimens Of
great size, he will take pictures Of the
working mines, with full description
of the ore and its character, which
later will be tabulated and catalogued
by Jack Tate, who has been appointed
to that work.
Upon receiving an exhibit, Mr.. kapp
will write three receipts, two of which
will be multiple copies. The original
he will keep himself; the duplicate will
be given to the owner Of the exhibit
and Mr.. Kapp will then ship the ex-
hibit with the triplicate receipt to
Milton NJ Detch, secretary of the
board of mining congress, who will
turn it over to Tate upon getting re-
ceipt. The exhibits furnished by the
various mines Of the state will be care
fully guarded both day and hight, and
will be insured against loss by fre, and
owners of exhibits requiring bond for
their return will be given one at once.
In case the owners do not require the
return of the exhibits, they will be
presented to the Mackar Sc..a,
Mines at Reno. The exhibit viii take

MARITAL WOES OF RICH
BY GERTRUDE ATHERToN.

l am not prepared to say, as an
unqualified assertion, that there is
more marital infellcity among the rich
than In other classes OF society. But
there are many reasons which might
go toward bearing out the claim.
For one thing, people who are very
rich are often prominent socially.
When such couples fall out the
newspapers, eager for gossip and

piness really exists to a greater de.

marriage of convenience" Among
people composing the wealthy set In
our large cities marriages are oftener
matters of policy and desirability than
the mere outcome of mutual affection.
There is, in many cases of this sort,
no real love from the very outset.
Women marry men of great wealth
and social position because their fam
lilies are ambitious.

stances that more or less jar and lack
of congeniality should ensue Moth.

her family's ambition to marry man
for whom she has no natural inclina-

TO meet a man with whom she falls
seriously in love. This is a condition

wholly avoided had she been born

lions the west will be called upon to

brings the conviction that irrigation
and dry farming will be twin factors
in promoting development In all Sec
tons where the natural rain fall is
not sufficient to produce crops.
1T is a well known fact that the
population is rapidly increasing and
that both the home and foreign de-
mands become larger each year The
time when the question of feeding
the multitude will be of serious mo-
ment does not seem far away. AT no
distant date, the demand will be
greater than the production which can
come from the irrigated lands of the
watered lands In the rain belt. If this
demand is supplied, then the produc-
ton to supply II must come from the
dry farmed lands.
Other crops Of value can be pro,
duced as successfully and proftably
as wheat. under like conditions. Dry
farming is therefore no unimportant

Widely Circulated.

The dry farming congress is now
an international institution. At its
late session, representatives were
present from the United States. Can.
ada, Europe, Australia and South

A New story Of Old Virginia.

Irene Of the Mountains" ro-
nance of old Virginia by George
Eggleston, has recently been issued
from the press of Lothrop. Lee &
Shepard Co.. Boston. AS the title In
dicates, this is romance, plentifully
grounded, however, with historical
facts, written in a manner which can
not help but captivate the reader
Politics plays an important part In
the action OF the story, the heroine
being a power in the mountain sec
ton in which she lives. The hero
ine is later transplanted to the fash
ionable circles of Richmond, where
she seems to have carried the spirit
of leadership. 1t is story well
worth the reading.

The Marriage Vow
MATCHES AND MATHEMATICS
BY VIRGINIA VAN DE WATER.

The matchmaker rushes In where
angels fear to tread. And yet she is
no fool. And her lot is not an easy
one. She is suspected by the world.
wise, tolerated by the young and unin-
itiated. and frequently ashamed of
herself. Still she exists and continues
to make matches.
In one of the Gypsy Brenton books,
dear to the childish heart OF quarter
century agone. the small boy says
that God made matches, but that "He
used the burning birthstone from the
DAD place to put on the tips" Later
well-known author makes her hero
Inc remark: Matches may be made
In heaven, but they sometimes serve
to light the fires of--well-the other
place, very effectually." The fact that
the two characters mentioned referred
to different kinds OF matches does not
alter the truth that may be drawn
from both remarks. This truth is ap.
plcable to the match with which we
have to do more than to the innocent
little wood and birthstone article.
II is not difficult to understand why
the devoted mother attempts to have
hand in the settling of her daugh-
ter's. marriage. She takes Il for
granted that she will marry-most
women do-and no woman knows true
happiness until she is beloved and
loving wife and joyful mother. Is It
strange, then, that the elderly woman
In whose power the happiness or un.
happiness Of her child cannot always
rest longs to play destiny for her
darling and establish her In life as she
thinks will be most conducive to her
future welfare? To this end she wants

EQUIPMENT FOR DRY FARMS
Not Necessary to Have New or Com
pllcated Machinery to Do Sue
cessful Dry Farming.

Dry farming does not require any
special or new equipment. There are
some things which are absolutely es-
sential, however, If the dry farmer will
make his business profitable. He
should have four or six horses,
Intersection drag-harrow, 2-12 or
14-inch gang pillow, good disc harrow,
and the ones with the small discs do
the best work. The discs should not
be larger than IA inches. An Acme
harrow is valuable instrument for
maintaining soil mulch The farmer
will also need one or two good Guilt
vators and a press drill. The latter
is one of the essentials. 1t may be
either of the shoe or the disc type.
The disc drill has some advantages
where there is much stubble or ref
use, but on well prepared summer
fallow ground the shoe drill, with
press wheels following to firmly pack
the seed, probably does the best work.
It does not require any new or COM
plicated or expensive machinery to do
successful dry farming under the best
methods.

There are. of course, countless ex

many happy marriages among the
rich, many luxurious homes where

Wearing Out Land.

The idea that our lands must wear
out is a vain delusion. They ought to
be made better every year, at least
till they reach the maximum fertility,
there to remain.
The soil of the Nile Valley in Egypt
has been cropped for 5000 years and
is today more fertile than ever before.
It rents for $40 to s35 an acre and
produces two crops year. All crops
are irrigated. The water is conducted
between the rows. No rain falls and
none is needed.
