LARGE DECREASE IN
THE SURPLUS OF COPPER

Special to The Tribune.
BOSTON. July "A forecast of the
report for June by the Copper Pro
ducers association, due July 10, sets the
surplus of copper in this country at a
figure showing a decrease of about 90,
100000 pounds, although various unof.
ficial estimates have set the figures at
100000 to 100000 pounds, An i'm,
portant factor in the decrease is the
large amount Of export for June,
amounting to 74,S00,00 pounds. with
one exception the largest total for any
one month on record. During June
there was an increase in the foreign
visible supply of 22,03l 900 pounds.

Steady a:1o Trotters Scarce.

The two minute trotter appeared six
years ago. and the trotters that have
beaten 2:05 number sixteen, but the
person who can breed or develop a
horse so that he can trot three success
sive heats in 2:fO can get a price for
him that will pay well for the effort,
and he can also earn money enough
in one year with such horse to keep
the owner in good condition the fol-
lowing year. While the list of 2:10
trotters is long one. filling over two
pages in the year book, the fact re-
mains that a 2:10 trotter is good
enough to win in any country if he
can trot three successive heats that
fast, and the people who go to harness
races will always enthuse over any
trotter that can do 1t.

Soil Problems,

In experiments with soils and fer
tiliZers by the Wisconsin experiment
station it has been found that on heav-
lily manured lands there is excessive
teaching of fertilizing materials, par
ticularly phosphates, which were for
merly supposed to have been retained
in the soil in form available for
future crops. Examination of the
drainage waters shows that if large
amounts of these materials are added
there are heavy losses which cannot
be regainrd. At some thirty-five points
in the state cooperative experiments
Oh soil problems are being made on
the use of phosphates on clay lands
supplemented by manure and other
fertilizers. Most of this work is being
done entirely by the farmers upon
plans furnished by the experiment
station.-Breeders Gazette.

COLONEL ALBERT A. POPE DEAD
Pioneer Bicycle Manufacturer and
Maker OF Automobiles.

Boston. Aug. 11.-Coloncl Albert \.
Pope. the pioneer bicycle manufAc-
turcr Of the United States and one of
the first advocates of the eXistin" good
roads system. died ut his summVi
home in CuhaSSct.
Colonel Pope had been in i'll health
for months. due to the breaking down
of his nervous system, which followed
the financial embarrassment of his
bicycle company, which had its head
quarters at Hartford. Conn.
Albert Augustus Pope was born in
Boston in 1913 and started his bust
ness career as Il clerk in Il shoe find
ings store at 81 per week.
He served in the civil war with
marked distinction. At the close of
the great struggle he was brevetted
lieutenant colonel of the Thirty-fifth
Massachusetts infantry for gallant
conduct.
In 1876 the first imported bicycles
began to make their appearance in
this country, and Colonel Pope decided
to start manufacturing wheels in the
United States.
The venture proved success from
the start. a craze for bicycling swept
over the country. and in the very first
few years of his business Colonel Pope
amassed a fortune. The sudden drop
in the cycle boom a few years ago,
however caused him financial embar-
rassment. He was also interested in
the automobile business.

True and Best Humanity.

We in our pride are apt to think
that to humble ourselves is to be
forced to an unwilling surrender, a
hard necessity of submission. But
with our gracious Father, to humble
is not to humiliate. The true and best
humanity is that which love wins from
US as the sunshine and soft berath of
spring WOO the flowers from the
hedgerow. OF old, when God would
humble Israel, He fed them with an

margin, Every one did eat the bread

The Poultry Yard.

Lack of business brings on liver
complaint in hens. just as 1t does in
men.
Poultry brings returns as quickly as
any investment that can be made.
1t is not enough to clean out under
the roosts and think you have done
a good job. Take out everything NOV
able, and don't bring anything back
till you have made it as clean as you
possibly can.
Laying hens should not be too fat.
Think Of this when making up your
rations.
Crop corn from your ration while
the weather is hot.
Skip feeding at noon while the hens
arc out on good range in summer.
Feed sparingly Of buckwheat in
warm weather 1t is a hearty, fatten-
ing feed.
Sloppy mashes are not half as good
as those which are a bit crumbly.

HINTS FOR FARMERS .
Conquering the Weeds.

A valuable means of keeping under
control If not completely exterminat-
ing any form of noxious growth is
the following of rational system of
rotating crops. 1t will have been OBJ
served that the different farm crops
appear to have a sort of affinity for
certain kinds of weeds. For instance,
spring grains are congenial to mus
tard, wild oats and foXtail; fall wheat
and rye to cookie, pigeon weed and
chess, while meadows and pastures
encourage the growth of curled dock.
oxeye daisy and plantain.
These facts suggest a rearrange-
ment of crops. such as sowing spring
grains on lands infested with weeds
common to fall grains. and vice versa.
In the former case the cultivation re-
quired in connection with the seeding
operations will destroy any weeds that
may have started to grow the previous
fall. In the latter instance the crops
will be harvested and incidentally any
foul growth kept from maturing. On
pastures and meadows where the
growth of grass is fairly dense an
nuals are pretty likely to be smother
ed out The trouble will be from BIZ
ennials and perennials. If n short
rotation of. SAY. three or four years
is practiced. which includes a hoed
crop following sod, these may be held
in check so as to give very little trou

The Self RUNNING Farm.

Just as sure as one settles back and
lets things on the farm run themselves
they will do it, and the peculiar thing
about it is that they always run one
way, downhill, and they run faster
than horse can trot too. The day for
that kind of farming has gone by. 1t
is clear out Of sight. In fact. 1t had to
go, because there so many bright, up
to date farmers who are pressing
things sharply every day that there
is no chance whatever for the man
who is satisfied to so along in an easy,
slipshod way. Up and at it must be
