SCIENCE IN RAISING POTATO
Marvellous Profits as That Of
Tubers.

There Is no line OF farming In the
irrigated districts that gives such
marvellous profits as that of scientific
potato production.
With scientific knowledge which can
be acquired by experiments in supply
ing perfectly balanced plant food and
maintaining soil fertility. the scientific
principles of which are similar to
those used by every successful breed
er in feeding and fitting prize-winning
stock: and with the proper proper.
tions of plant foods-phosphates. nj
trogen and potash-in the soil as
found In many parts of the west; and
by the use of clover and alfalfa. there
is no reason for those who contem-
plate engaging in the potato industry
to fear the outcome.
Too much stress can not be put
upon the value and Importance of live
stock in keeping up favorable soil con-
ditions, as no country now known has
been continuously successful in crop
production without the use of manures
from the feeding Of forage and grain

CHECK METHOD OF WATERING
Essential Features Consist In Sur
rounding Nearly Level Plats OF
Land With levees.

The ossential features Of the check
method of irrigation consist in sur.
rounding nearly level plats Of ground
with low levees. and In making pro-
vision to flood each by means Of a
ditch and check box or gate. The In
closed spaces may be laid out in
straight lines In both directions. thus
forming with their levee borders n se-
ries OF rectangles. or the levees may
follow more or less closely the con-
tour lines Of the natural surface Of the
ground. thus forming contour checks.

DROVE HUSBAND FROM HOME
Act OF Militant Suffragette That Was
Too Arbitrary to Be Upheld
by tho Court.

The results that may ensue from
being married to a suffragette were re-
vealed the other day in London
(Eng.) suburban police court. Mrs.
Tunnicliffe took up the cause and was
not able to spend much time at home
When the husband demonstrated she
simply commanded her daughter to
pack her fathers gripsack and there
and then ordered him out of the house.
He went, and then the lady sued him
for desertion and demanded alimony.
But surely you did not take 1t so
feebly?" asked tho magistrate OF the
husband.
1T was no use objecting," was the
answer. she wanted to be master and
said that II annoyed her she would
lock me up. l was only too anxious to
go back home. but she would not let

DAIRY NOTES.

Farmers want their own skim milk
to feed fresh and warm.
A deep capacious body is a desir'
able feature for a dairy COW.
Good shade is very essential to the
cows comfort in summer
Clean milk will not only remain
sweet longer. but as every one knows
Is more wholesome food.
The fellows who buy, feed and
slaughter cows are doing it faster
than good COWS can be produced.
The amount of milk COW gives
should not be determined by guess.
but by actual weighing or measuring.
After the calves get we'll started
to growing It Is a good plan to add a
little cooked oil meal to the skim
milk
half full. because II there Is too much
cream in the churn the butter will be
longer In coming.
A good dairy COW will do pretty
strong work on ration Of corn silage
and alfalfa hay. OF course. she will
do better If she gets a meal mixture
in addition.
The obsolete idea that COW can
be milked for some years and then
fattened into beef Is largely respon.
sible for the comparatively low mar.
ket value some men put on cows.
The time is rapidly approaching In
the middle northern states between
Iowa and Ohio inclusive. when farm.
ers will realize the importance of
more intensive farming and dairying.

Importance of Soil Mulch.

The soil mulch is a most important
factor. 1t is by soil mulch that the
moisture Is conserved. The summer.
fallow ground should be in granular
form of small Jumps. but care should
be taken not to get it too fine. The
object of cultivating the summer-fal.
lowed soil is to prevent the formation
of a crust; to allow the proper action
of the sun and air; to break up the
capillaries and prevent the moisture
rising to the surface and evaporating,
and to intercept the growth of weeds.

Calumet & Arizona's decline was
apparently due to the sale at the

pany, and in no way were unfavorable
underground developments RESPONSE
BILE for the selling. Secretary Cor
don R. Campbell has made detail
ed statement of conditions 10 the
Boston Commercial. which I summar-
ize as follows:
The company has over $4,000
of surplus funds today. II has spent
81 600 600 in the development OF out
side properties that have been con
idered valuable and worthy of such
development
Within the last three or four
sears the theory of the Bisbee ore
deposits has been gradually chang
ng TO conform with actual conditions
hown by development work in diff.
erent parts of the camp. Even with
n the past six months Developments
n that district have been such as to
again change the opinions of those
who know most about the camp. The
development OF rich sulphiGe ores In
he lower levels OF our Oliver ~ Il
gives reasonable basis for the hope
hat similar ores will also be found
at greater depth in the Irish Mag
claim. How deep these ores go nc
man can tell. We are finding good
ore now 1000 feet deeper than II
was believed to exist 10 years ago
For aught anyone knows we may find
ore another thousand feet deeper
than our present workings.
The physical and financial condi
tons Of the Calumet & Arizona com
pany are better today, and its pros
poets for the future are brighter, than
at any previous time in the past five
years. The company viii continue
to earn and pay dividends to its
stockholders for many years to come

PRAISES WINKLEmAN.
douglas International

DR.. w. 3. Strait, of the Owl Drug
store. returned yesterday from triI
to Winkelman and other points in
that vicinity where he went to look
over the situation there with a view
OF going into business. Mr.. Strait re-
turned very enthusiastic over that
section Of the territory and is of the
opinion that it has a great future.
He says that in the Winkelman
country, including the Ray mining
camp, work on the smelter for the
Ray company at Winkelman, the
railroad construction work and the
Christmas mine. there are fully
three thousand men employed. 1t Is
estimated that Grant Brothers are
working one thousand men on the
extension of the Phoenix & Eastern;
at the Christmas mine there are five
hundred men employed and about the
same number employed at the Ray.
Working on the Ray smelter there
are something like six hundred men.
DIR. Strait stated that only a few
lots were available at either Ray or
WinkeIman for business locations at
present, as no townsites have been
laid off as yet, but it is expected
that the company viii in the near
future set apart ground for business
blocks and residence sections. He
stated that many men were going
daily to Winkelman from Phoenix for
the purpose of finding business Ioca-
tons. He declared that Phoenix was
crowded and has decidedly prosper
