NEW IDEA FOR FALL FLOWING
Important That Land Be Thoroughly
Turned and Sod Thrown to Bot
tom Of Furrow.


We have seen lot of bad blowing
this season, especially on new
land where the breaking is done
by contract. 1t is very important
that the land be thoroughly turn
ed and the sod thrown to the bot
tom Of the furrow. When the land
is plowed the surface should be
partly fined. It should not be-
worked down as fine as for seed
bed but the larger clods should
be broken up, which. Of course, is a
mean job on heavy soils In this aw.
full dry season. II the surface
were made too fine the land would
crust and also might not be sutti.
GENTLY uneven to catch drifting SHOWS.
The partial finlng of the surface
should be done at once, writes ]. D.
Tinsley in Field and Farm. The best
rule Is to work down what has been
plowed in the morning before going
to dinner and the afternoon blowing
before going to supper. Never turn
land and leave It rough to be fined
when the breaking has been finished
or to be weathered as in the humid re-
gion.
Observations for the past three
winters on land broken and left
rough have shown quite conclu.
sively that land so treated was as dry
II not drier in spring than unproken
sod. In the early deep breaking the
sub.surface packer may be run after
the plow. but the soil would prob.
ably settle without 1t and Its use Is
not SO essential as In the case of late
breaking. The disk Is probably the
best tool for the partial filming as It
not only cuts up the clods but also
packs the soil considerably. II a
disk Is not available the ground should
be gone over with splke.toothed
drag harrow, or with some form OF
drag. The land may be allowed to
stand in this condition until spring
and then worked to seed bed.
The method Of early deep break.
Ing that has been described requires
heavy teams and considerable labor,
but will pay. When deep breaking is
impossible, the sod may be turned
three inches or more and allowed to
lie over winter. This will be better
than not breaking at all. provided the
sod Is turned fiat Where for any rea.
son 1t Is impossible to break the
land early much good may be ac-
complished by disking the soil, es.
pecially II 1t be double disked,
with the disks set to lap one.half.
In many cases this double disking will
do about as much good as shallow
breaking. 1t partly opens up the sur,
face to let In water and produces
partial mulch. This blowing can be
kept up In most parts OF the arid NJ.
gion until the first of January and may
be continued all winter If the frost Is
not too deep.

The Cost Of Horse Labor.

The Investigations carried on for
six years In three districts in Mime.
sofa show that the horses on these
farms worked an average OF 3.15 hours
on every week day Of the year. No
Sunday work was counted. The aver
age total number Of horses on these
farms during the six years was 42S.
The cost Of maintaining them varied
somewhat In the different localities. At
one point the work horses cost an Az.
erage Of s649s per year. at another
$55.45. and at another $42.75. This
represents the cost OF grain and hay
only. No labor, straw or pasture was
charged in this. Prices for grain were
those ruling In local markets, less the
cost Of hauling 1t to market

POULTRY NOTES.

The best method to determine II
your hens are good layers Is the trap
nest.
The houses and pens the fowls are
placed In should be scrupulously
clean.
When growing fowls expressly for
market. many poultrymen prefer cross.
breds.
Crossing an African gander on Tou.
louise geese is said to give the largest
sized offspring.
Clean up the weeds and rubbish
outside the houses and there will be-
fewer insects inside.
A few hens carefully watched and
literally fed are more profitable than
large number forced to forage for
their living.
Too much onion, fish scrap and
stale bread often causes eggs to have
bad odor. 1t Is unsafe to feed stale
food TO hens.
tuberculosis In chickens has been
found In five cases this year by the

Imported Insects.

1t is said that some of the insects
imported into this country do more
damage to crops here than they do
TO crops in their native countries. The
reason assigned is that the parasites
which are their natural enemies were
left behind. consequently the insects
are kept in check In their native To-
calities and have greater opportunities
to multiply in our country. The de-
structiye cabbage worm has a para
site In Europe which prevents 1t from
doing great damage. The Hessian fly
parasite, however. has been imported
to this country, and it has done much
to keep the fly In check.

MONEY RAISED ID
 DEVELOP COLORADO STOCKHOLDERS DEMONSTRATE CONFIDENCE IN PROPERTY. Six Thousand Dollars Will Be Ex- pended to Sink Shaft to
 the 4o0-foot Level.

Assured that there is enough mon
 ey in the treasury of the company to
 pay all costs of development until
 next summer at least, B. Reed, super
 intendent of La Coronado mine, sit
 uated eighteen miles northeast of
 Florence. will leave this morning for
 the property More than four thou
 sand dollars was raised Tuesday
 night and Wednesday and this sum
 will be increased to $600O within the
 next few days, for the stockholders are determined that development shall not cease until they have either a producing mine or a property that can readily be sold for a good, round sum.
 Tuesday night a few of the stock holders got together at the city hall and decided that the best way to keep things moving at La Coronado camp was to go among the local share owners and tell them just what has to be done to put the mine in shape to sell La Coronado long ago passed beyond the prospect stage but it has not the big ore body blocked out which nearly all eastern buyers ask when purchasing a mine. What the company wants to do is to sink the shaft to water level and do more drifting and crosscutting. A few months of good. hard work will ac- complish wonders.
 Eleven of the twelve stockholders present Tuesday night subscribed for additional shares, and the twelfth man promised to do SO This stock is purchased for 2s cents a share. with the agreement that in the event of a sale they will be paid S1.00 for every share they buy at this price. Yesterday several more stockholders were seen and almost without excep- tion they subscribed for all the stock they were able to pay for Therefore La Coronado continues as a mine financed entirely by Phoenix capital
 Several parties have looked at La Coronado at various times and have made tentative offers. but the com pany has felt that it has too good a thing to let go of before a topnOtch price can be secured. The end of the work necessary to obtain ! such a price is now in sight.
 At present the shaft is down BIO l feet and is steadily being sunk deeper l It is believed that the water level | will be reached before the 400 foot | level. Six thousand dollars will be | more than sufficient to put the shaft l down ninety feet farther as we'll as develop the mine in other ways.
 Enthusiasm runs high among the | and Mir. Reed will hurry | back to the mine determined to hurry | development at a more rapid rate | than ever before. With the up-to- l late machinery that was recently in- | sinking can be done cheaper | than it was carried on when the | shaft was first begun.
