AUTO TRUCKS FOR FARM.

Handy HorseIess Vehicle Gradually
Corning Into Agricultural Use.
One Of the latest developments is
the automobile truck for heavy haul
ing on the farm. The accompanying
illustration shows one of these big
gasoline driven vehicles doing heavy
duty on a Virginia farm where until
a few years ago the patient OK team
drew the big loads. That the auto
truck. is penetrating the byways Of the
south is a significant sign Of the times.
For some years the horseless dray has
been at work on many Of the great
western farms. Now it is becoming
known in older communities.
The auto truck where the roads are
fairly good is of inestimable service

CURIOUS FARM FACTS.

Tulips will bloom better in the house
II they are left until after New Years
to make roots.
A sensation in potato growing has
been created in the neighborhood Of
Ridgely, Nd. or at Richardson, a sub
urb. by the discovery that potatoes
grown in a barrel yield enormously.
A white duck owned by c.. w. Whit
zler of Bridgeport, Conn.,, is normal in
all respects save that it has no breast
bone and owe its breast feathers have
never grown. The skin at. this point
is thin and almost transparent, and
underneathsthis shallow protection one
can see plainly the fowls heart action.
Making bulbs blossom in the house
in winter is one Of the easiest process
es in the world and adaptable even to
city apartments, which is saying the
last word about house plants. Hya-
cinths will bloom within a month in a
Tye glass or a bowl Of pebbles. You
can buy the whole thing ready to fill
with water and set or your mantel-
piece for 80 cents.
Z On account of the starch they con-
tain potatoes are valuable as food.
The potato tuber consists mainly of a
mass Of cells filed with starch and en-
circled by a thin. corky rind. The
chief value Of the potato as an article
Of diet consists in the starch it on
tains and to a less extent in the pot
ash and other salts. The quantity of
nitrogen in its composition is, small.
There was never a farm. touched by
an interurban trolley line but that it's
value was greatly increased. Farm
lands on interurban lines have adj
vanced to as high as 5000 per acre The
trolley converts a country home into
a suburban home. Thousands of peo-
pie move into the country with their
families. where they live the year
round. while their work is in the city.
II the young men who are brought
up on the farms do not want to stay
there It Is up to them, but there are
100000 more farms in the country now
than there were ten years ago, and
there are 100000 of them now, with
3O,OOO.OON people making a fine liveli-
hood thereby. We cannot find it in OF
hearts IL pity the poor farmer" He
Is getting along all right. and II his
son Is wise he will stay by him.
The Baldwin apple first grew as a
chance Seeding on the farm Of a John
Ball In eastern Massachusetts, and was
later brought into prominence by a
Colonel Baldwin. These facts are stat
ed on q handsome monument which
was q few years ago erected on the
spot where this first Seeding tree
grew, and the millions Of Baldwins
which have been grown since the
birth Of this first tree in about 1740
are direct descendants Of 1t.

STEEL MILLS STILL CLOSED.
Only . Few Hundred Men Report for
Work.

South Bethlehem, Pa, March e.
The striking employees Of the Bethle-
hem Steel company again succeeded
ia almost completely tying up the
great plant, only q few hundred men
reporting for work. The town re.
mains quiet. but it Is still under heavy
police protection. s.
Thegfaflure Of the company's loyal
to report was due principally to
fear iof being attacked by strikers OF
;sympathiSers with the walkout.

in hauling produce to town and in
conveying machinery or building ma
terial from one part Of the farm to
another. Some farmers who have &C.
quired this convenient vehicle help to
pay for it by hiring it's services to
their neighbors upon demand.
OF course the cost Of a farm truck
is too high at present for the small
farmer to find it a paying proposition,
but each year the price is decreasing,
while it is said the s~erviceability Of
the trucks increases.

RESCUE WORK
PROVES SLOW
Many Victims Of ~Snowslides.
Still Buried in Debris.
DEATH ROLL THIRTY-ONE
Some Others Are Missing, However,
and the Casualty List Is Far From
compIete-Thirty Persons Taken
Alive From the Crush Of Snow and
Timbers and Miners Are Working:
Desperately to save Others.

desperately to Save Others.
Spokane, Wash, March 2.-Working
desperately and almost exhausted hun
dreds of miners are trying to dig from
packed ice, snow and wreckage the
dead and injured thought to be buried
in the SIX Northern Idaho avalanches,
which have caused death and destruc-
ton in the last two days.
The death list has reached thirty
one and it is believed more dead will
be found in the splintered cabins
which housed the families of the min
ers.
At Mace, where the first avalanche
struck, eleven are known to be dead
and eight are badly injured. Sweep
ing down the mountainside the great
mass of snow and earth crushed the
cabins and small houses like egg
shells, burying the occupants in a
mass Of logs, snow and earth.
Not until the sun strikes the noun
tain of now and wear the huge mass
away will the list Of known dead be
complete.
So far thirty men, women and chill
dren have been rescued from the Mace
slide by the miners, who are still
working in shifts trying to succor
those that may be alive beneath the
crush of snow and timbers.
Chaotic Conditions at Burke.
At Burke, where the second slide
occurred a few hours after the n at
Mace, five people are known to be
dead and two badly injured. So cha
otto is the condition in the small min
ing town, however, that the list is be-
lieved not to be complete. The sad
dest incident at this place is the
death of the whole family of Albert
Newman. He, with his wife and two
children, without a seconds warning,
were buried in, the avalanche.
At Carbonate Hill. where the third
slide occurred. two persons are dead
and half q dozen injured. 1t Is not
known how many more are dead be-
meath the wreckage.
A fourth slide at the North Frank
lin mine near Burke played a'peculiar
freak. Two men were sleeping in n
room of q clubhouse and the front
part Of the log structure was empty.
The avalanche tore the whole building
to splinters, except the n room In
which the two men were sleeping, and
rushed down the m~ountainside, piled
up in the gulch below, not a hundred
yards from a group of cabins contain
ing many families.
