TO RAISE MORGAN HORSES.

veI0ped-T0 Increase Sizt
Slightly.
Washington, Aprll.-The United
States government, through It's bu
reau OF animal industry, is trying tt
preserve the Morgan horses OF hall q
century ago, and also establish q
type OF carriage horse distinctly
American. While the Importation o.
horses from foreign countries con
tinues year after year, yet there Is
constant and continuous demand fol
the American horse for carriage and
saddle purposes. The preserving Of
the Morgan horse Is TO provide a
family horse.
The speed craze which struck Nor.
gan horse breeders and led to the
crossing OF the old-time Vermont
Morgan with other strains, resulted
In a sacrifice OF conformation and
style to speed and the original was
threatened with extinction. As a re.
suit there is strange Morgan situs.
tion-a few real Morgans, iostered
by breeders loyal to breed stand.
ards, and many that are registered
as Morgans but are Morgans only in
name. The governments work is
being carried on in different parts OF
the country. The Morgan farm is at
Middlebury, w., and experiments
also are being made at the Colorado
state agricultural college.
KENTUCKY STRAIN BROUGHT IN.
Morgan breeding was arranged for
in cooperation with the Vermont
experiment station In the TALL OF
1905, No purchases were made un.
I'll June, 1908, when seven mares
and two fillies were bought from va.
rious persons inVermont by a board
of authorities. In making the selec-
lions for the Morgan farm an effort
was made to get the true Morgan
type, with an increase In size and
quality over that possessed by the
original Morgan. However, type
was not sacrificed to size. When It
became necessary to 60 below the
prescribed size to get the desired
type this was done. The next pur-
chase was two mares from Kentucky
as an experiment, the Idea being
that q careful outcross would give
increased size and quality without
destroying desirable type character
istics. The stallion General Gates
and flly were purchased July l,
1907. General Gates was purchased
after careful consideration, not only
on his own individuality as a mod
ern Morgan but upon his ability as
a sire OF the type desired.
Only two crops Of fosls have been
obtained In the Morgan work. The
aim at the Vermont farm Is to pre-
serve the Morgan type at its best,
keeping the splendid conformation,
spirit and endurance for which these
horses were famous, and eliminating
the tendency to coarseness, heavy
withers and low backs. A careful ei.
tort will also be made to improve
the action by getting away from the
choppiness and irregularity In gait,
and particularly to eliminate the
tendency to pace and mix gaits.
BIG TYPE NOT SOUGHT.
Size will be increased carefully by
selection, but It is not the purpose OF
the department. to make the new
Morgan q big horse. 1t should be
understood that the work with the
Morgan is not to be merged into the
American carriage horse; although
the Morgan always has been and
probably always will be prime FAC
tor in the production OF carriage
horses, the type will be kept distinct.
1t is not patriotic fancy to urge that

New Way To SummerfaIlow.

Here is suggestion from the
Western Farmer, for some of our
dry farmers who desire a SUBJ
stitute for summer following:
lone of the first farmers of
large acreage to take up the di-
versifed plan of farming in the
immediate vicinity of Pullman is
H. H. Curtis, who owns 300 acres
of land a short distance north of
that city. He has just complet-
ed fencing his farm with hog
wire and next year will begin on
the new plan. Instead of sum-
mer following part of his land as
he has in the past, he will rotate
with crops of grain, alfalfa, clo-
yer, corn and peas and other le-
guminous gathering plants. In
stead of turning off so much
wheat each year, he will turn off
more hogs and cattle. In this

the rivers edge, is now several
hundred feet into the mountain
side. 1t is expected to tap the
main ledge at a distance Of about
1000 feet and will then be some
/, 700 feet below the outcropping
of the ledge on the mountain
above. With machinery and
transportation the property may
eventually prove to be an exceed
ingly rich one, as some of the
copper ore already encountered
has assayed as high as $500 per
ton.

Lewiston is getting ready to
put a strong base ball team in
the field this year and expects to

R. Williams, a well known
mining man, was seriously in

Electrolytic To Install Machinery.
Tuesdays Tribune says:

"The information became pub
lie yesterday that the Electrolytic
mining company, who own a
group of copper claims on the
Snake river above Imnaha, have
completed arrangements for in
stalling machinery on their prop
erty. Extensive work has been
done on the property, but the in
stallation Of machinery had been
postponed until such time as it
was assured transportation facil-
tiles would be available. The
Huntington-LeWiston road now
being built out Of Huntington
would serve these mines, and the
decision to install machinery, it
is stated, has been reached by
the company after officials of the
same had been assured by Union
Pacific interests there would be
no delay in completing the river
road.
The assurance, it is said, was
secured at the Oregon Short Line
headquarters in Salt Lake. With
in the past few days eastern men
interested in the mining company
visited the property in connec-
tion with the new plans. +"
The mine above mentioned is
located on Snake river about op-
posite Joseph plain and is one of
the most promising properties on
the river. Quite a lot of develop
ment work has been done on the
property and a tunnel which was

waiting a time for the other shot,
Williams entered the tunnel. He
worked there about 20 minutes
before the other shot went off
and received the full force of the
explosion. He was taken to
Greer and later to Lewiston on a
special train where he was placed
in the hospital. His injuries are
not considered dangerous but it
will be some time before he re-
covers from them.
Giles Boiler, a prominent farm
er of the Cavendish section,
found it necessary last week to
take out his second set of natu-
ralization papers. Boilers first
papers were taken out in Penn
sylvania over 40 years ago but
the records there were destroyed
and as he had lost his papers it
was necessary to take out new
ones so that he could prove up
on his homestead.

ANOTHER ROAD
Being OPENED
Residents of Joseph Plains COun-
try are Building Road to Sal
mon River to Connect With the
Grave Greek Road.

Parties in the city this week
from across Salmon river state
that the farmers of the Joseph
plains country are hard at work
on a wagon road from the plain
down to the Rice creek ferry and
expect to have the road finished
in two or three weeks. The road
follows down a point most of the
way and did not entail a large
amount of work in constructing.
When completed it will connect
with the Grave creek road at the
river and allow the farmers and
stockmen of the Joseph country
to get their supplies from this
point by wagon over an easy
grade, which will permit of a
good load being hauled the entire
distance. The country across
the river is settling up rapidly
and roads are bound to be built
when conditions demand them.
AS Cottonwood is their nearest
railroad station and the easiest
supply point for them to reach
practically all of the trade from
that country will come here when
the new road is finished.
