Millions of feet of Standing Timber
Destroyed and 1t Is Feared That
Some Lives Were Lost.

WINNIPEG, Man, August %.
Sweeping everything in its path and
carrying destruction ito millions of
feet of standing timber and, it is
feared, death in some quarters, to peo-
pie marooned in small settlements, a
fierce forest fire is moving onward in
Southern Kootenay.
Late this afternoon fire struck the
town of Hatton and reduced it tc
ashes. The inhabitants were taken
away in safety. Wild animals are nu
merous and in terror, rush past flee
ing people ahed of the fire. If rain
does not come the Kootenay forests
will be swept away by the fire, which
will be as severe as that which swept
Fernie year ago, although no towns
of as large proportions are in its path
Indications tonight are that in con.
tinuing it's present direction, the con.
flagration will sweep across the boun.

Refundine Bonds Carried

At the last general election the
question OF issuing refunding bonds
to refund outstanding warrants, it
was generally supposed that the
proposition was voted down, on the
theory that it required three-fifths
of all the votes cast at the general
election, but the supreme court
of this state has held that it only
REQUIRES vote of three fifths OF all
the votes cast for that purpose
alone. instead of the entire vote
cast at the general election. At the
election there were 26E6 votes cast
upon the refunding proposition, of
which iii were in favor of issuing
the bonds. and SS5 against them.
It will be observed from these fig
ures that -fifths of all the votes
cast upon that proposition would
be 1894, which is the number re-
quired by law to carry the propo-
ton, and as there were 1771 votes
it will be seen that there was a
majority of 1T votes more than
were needed.-Reveille.

~ HE methods OF farming followed
today are made possible only
by the use Of modern labor
saving machinery The farm
hand Of today needs brains more than
plicated machine successfully is more
valuable than the power TO do hard
days manual labor
With the coming Of improved ma
chinery the problem Of what to buy
and what to get along without has be-
come a serious one. The farmer has
more money tied uF in machinery than
In any one thing besides his land.
Having too much machinery Is nearly
as bad as having too little. What is
needed is wise selection.
1t Is always we'll to do little fgur-
ing before buying a new machine. Di-
viding the cost Of the implement by
the number Of years it may be reason
ably expected to last Will give the
amount that must be charged to de-
probation each year. Add to this an
allowance for repairs. storage and
y
you will have the yearly cost of the
machine. A little further figuring will
show whether the benefit received
from it in a year will warrant this
cost
Machinery may be roughly divided
into FIVE classes tillage, planting. hay
ing, harvesting and miscellaneous. OF
the many tillage implements there are
some that are absolutely necessary on
any farm. Among these are the plows
For the farmer on quarter section a
sixteen inch riding plow will be all
that Is needed for the field work. In
addition it may be we'll to have a
cheap walking plow for blowing the
garden, turning out potatoes and for
use In case Of an emergency. A, gang
plOw requires too many horses to be
practicable on the. average 100 acre
farm. On larger farms, where plenty
Of horses are available, gang pillow
will save the time Of an extra man. 1t
Is good plan to have the plow sup
piled with two or three moldbOards
Of different slants. A steep mold
board pulverizes the soil more and for
this reason is a good thing to use on
stubble land. On clover sod, however.
longer moldboard should be used in
order to lessen the draft.
One Of the most important tillage
implements is the disk. No other ma
chine will pulverize the soil SO quick
ly or thoroughly. The use Of tongue
truck-a small two wheeled arrange
ment-under the rear end Of the
tongue Is Of considerable advantage
In taking the weight off the horses
neckS Solid wheel disks pulverize
the ground more thoroughly than
spaders or getaways.
A good harrow is a necessity on any
farm. The flexible type is best for all
conditions, as it gets down into the
hollows and rides over trash better
than will solid frame harrow.
Spring tooth harrows. rollers and
weeders all have their special uses,
but can hardly be said to be neces-
Sary on the average quarter section.
Next in order come the cultivators,
and there are so many styles Of these
that choosing IS difficult matter The
most important part Of the cultivator
is the shovels. A happy medium is
struck In the six shovel type. The
shovels on this can be run deep

with every binder This IS the only
means Of eliminating side draft that
has yet been discovered. A tongue
truck is rather expensive, but SO are
sore shoulders and necks on the horses
at harvest time.
Where much stock is kept the corn
binder is necessary implement. By
cutting a large share of the corn and
using it as fodder or silage much feed
is saved that would otherwise be vast
ed. About 40 per cent of the entire
feeding value Of the corn plant is in
the stalk When these are left stand
ing in the field the greater part of this
feed is wasted. The shocked fodder
may profitably be run through shred
der before feeding. This will husk the
corn and leave the stalks In the best
shape to be fed or used for bedding.
One Of the most important Of the
miscellaneous implements is the wind
mill. No farmer can afford to pump
water for his stock by hand when the
wind will do it for nothing after the
mill has once been put up. In erecting
a windmill be sure that it Is put on a
high enough tower SO that surround
ing trees or buildings will not cut off
the wind. 4 mill which Is geared back
so that the wheel makes three revOlu-
tons or so to che stroke Of the pump
will run in 4 lighter wind than will
the straight Geared type. A three
a t1,,r Is ,lSfs ct a
four and considerably cheaper.
\ machine that is almost indiSpenSa-
bic on stock farm is the gasoline en-
CINE. The original cost of these ell
sines IS reasonable. and the amount
required for fuel and repairs is small.
With a gasoline engine to furnish the
power to run a shelter and grinder
feed can be cheaply and easily pre-
pared for the stock. The engine will
also saw wood. if you are fortunate
enough to have any to saw. run the
silage cutter. grindstone. separator,
churn and washing machine. 1t may
also replace the windmill as a source
Of power for pumping.
In selecting a gasoline engine be
sure to get one large enough to do the
required work easily. remembering at
the same time that where much light
work Is to be done a small engine
will do it with much less gasoline
than will be used by a large one.
This objection to large engine can
be overcome to a large extent by so
arranging the work that several light
machines may be run at the same
time The most reliable type of en-
CINE is the four cycle. in which there
are two revelations Of the f1ywheel to
one explosion. The water system Of
cooling is the most efficient, though
air cooled engines are all right for
light work
Another necessary machine Of the
stock farm is the manure spreader
Not only does this save a great deal
Of work. but It also applies the ma
nure more evenly and will cover a
greater amount of ground with CIV
Ell quantity of manure There should
be little wood In manure spreader,
since it rots out quickly.
