Save the Manure and Grow Silage.
Haul the manure out to the field
as fast as made and spread 1t, and IL
the land needs mineral matter. spread
some acid phosphate and potash, but
do not waste time, manure and labor
piling up lot Of stuff and mixing it.
Composing is all right for the mar
ket gardener. whose valuable crops
can make him afford to lose some ma
nure In order to get it fine. But for
the ordinary farm crops, composing
never pays. Use the floats in the sta
BILE cutters daily and get the manure
cut on the land at once and with only
one handling. You cannot keep ma
nure without losing value, and ma
nure pile is something that should
never be around the place.

SALT LAKERS HOLDING
RICH GOLD PROPERTY
Harvcys Have Good Showing ON
Claims Held by Them III Camp OF
National. Nevada.

The gold camp of National, some 10
miles due north of Winncmucca, Ney.'
on the Southern Pacific railroad, has
been giving a good account OF Itself
during the past II months, and some OF
the neighboring mining districts have
been coming gradually to the front.
One of the promising new camps Is
near the Harvey ranch. few miles
due south of National Here J. c. and
o. w. Harvey of Salt Lake own
group OF five promising claims. Mr..
Harvey, Sr., is a veteran miner. Some
years ago he was prospecting north of
WInnemucca and discovered some very
rich float at the foot OF hill. and II
looked good to him. Further search
and he discovered a distinct contact
between granite and altered lime. the
Intervening vein matter giving up
rich samples from the surface.
Mr.. Harvey has been steadily work.
ing the claims ever since. and his ef
forts have been we'll rewarded. In
one place he has a pay streak of five
feet, running well III gold. with little |
silver. At a depth of 40 feet, he is |
getting out considerable ore that runs
close to $50 In gold and about $3.50 in
silver. Some picked samples have
lssayed as high as s1.120 to the ton.
Free gold can be seen In much OF the
best rock. The Wlnnemucca- National
wagon road crosses near New Gold
field, over which an auto line Is run
during the summer time.
