To Farm on Copper Lands.

A party Of Houghton capitalists
have under consideration the estab-
lishment at a point on the Copper
Range railroad south of Houghton Of
600-acre experimental farm. The
lands have already been secured, but
are at present heavily timbered.
Steps will be tksn during the COM
ing winter to cut the timber, and
early next spring the stumps will be
removed and the land made ready for
cultivation. It is hardly probable that
crops will be planted before 1913, but
the enterprise when established will

cultural standpoint nthe copper coun.

phorus and the potash must be pur-
chased. He must know something
about these important elements, and
he must accept it as one of the liked
expenses of the farm that these ele-
ments. as wen as lime, must be
yearly supplies.
Certain forms of dalrying, like
milk shipping, cheese making and
condensing, are wasteful OF fertility,
unless the farmer guards against
such loss by artifcially supplying the
lime, phosphate and potash. 1t was
largely through this taking OF the
whole milk from the farm without
adequate making up of the loss. that
so many farms in the eastern states
became depleted of their fertility.
Wherever butter dairying was car
ried on, and consequently the skim
milk was used to grow calves and
pigs, the live stock complement OF
the farm was kept up and the man
ure supply greatly enhanced Such
sections Like Delaware county, New
York, has suffered much less in the
depletion of the soil In the past fifty
years, than did Herkimer, st. Law
renee, Madison, Oneida and other of
the cheese making counties of that
state.
The same depicting process has
been going on In New England, New
Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio, and far
Their west. The wonderful growth of
villages and cities calls for an enor-
nous consumption of dairy products.
This means taking the whole milk
from the farm In large degree and
thereby greatly reduces the growing
of live stock. We we'll remember six
ty years ago how that central New
York produced great crops of clover
and a large supply OF cattle, hogs and
sheep. The tops of the hills were
kept covered with the splendid for
ests that characterized that state.
ID springs and small streams were
~ that means maintained and we
fish for trout in brooks that have
not known a trout for the past>th1rty
years and which are dry most of the
year. All this has been changed and
sadly so for the worse. Had the
farmers kept the tops of the hills
covered with trees it would have con-
served the water supply and helped
maintain the side hill pastures.
These are some of the paramount
problems of the day and hour that
confront the dairy farmer. The trou-
BILE is that here as we'll as elsewhere
in this broad field of agriculture, ig-
norance has held sway. eve all like
sheep have gone astraE" The wise,
live teachers of agriculture are be-
coming more ohsesSed every day with
the thought that Il the future mill
lions of this country are fed, the
American farmer must wake up, and
that right soon, to the fearful mis-
takes he has been making through
his ignorance and Indifference in de-
stroying the productive capacity Of
his land.
Every man, woman and child In
the nation is vitality Interested in the
promotion of conserving intelligence
among the farmers of this country.

One Way to Prevent Incompetence.
1t is discre5it rather than a credit
to an executive to have to fire man
for incompetence, according to the
president of large industrial corpora
ton. Discharg1ng a deficient employe
is in his eyes a reflection on an en-
ployer's executive ability to hire the
right kind of help. '1f a concern has
an executive or a manager who has
not the faculty or genius for selecting
capable assistants or subordinates VINO
will cooperate to make the business
a success, the necessity for firing and
the cost of training new subordinates
will go on indefinitely" says this in
dustrial chief. He points out that his
own firm has an expert sales manager
who possesses this faculty or genius
for picking out worthy men, and who
has hired many statesmen and has
never fired any for inefficiency.
This valued manager is ? masterful
student of human nature. He is con-
Versant with those peculiar elements
Of personality which must be weighed
in judging the merits and dement's OF
prospective statesmen. He analyses
and studies an applicants appearance,
his conversation, his latent possibili-
ties, his references, with the search
ing precision of a jurist sitting in
judgment. He determines By subtle
questioning whether a man is in earn
est and will stick" to the game and
make a good ambassador for the
house, or If he is simply professional
"floater" or near one, drifting discon-
tented from ore position to another.
He goes on the theory that the time to
discover the undesirable and the in
competent is before any money has
been paid out for unsatisfactory work
Eliminate the necessity Of firing men
by having a good system In hiring
them. That Is the gist of his scheme

Rules for Unlucky

OF mind that attracts more failure
unless they have the faith and pur-
pose and good plain common sense
to fix their eyes beyond immediate
conditions.
ITO him who hath shall be given"
embodies lot of truth to the unlucky,
but 1t is often misconstrued.
1t is the person who is painfully
conscious of what he has not, and ev-
erlastingly worried because he can't
get what he feels ought to be his
share of this worlds goods. who re-
mains in the narrow groove Of want
and unsatisfled wishes.
You must force yourself out of the
pit mentally before you can do it ma
terially. In other words, you must
discipline your mind to think right.
will right and work right, and then
let the rest take care of itself
Somebody, who, considering her for
mer distress and present well being,
must have acquired the secret of
luck. says: IF you can work delight
fully and hope delightfully."- each day.
and never once think about making
both ends meet, they are sure to meet
and little over"
Here are few good rules for the
unlucky:"
Even If you are not doing the work
for which you are best fitted, do it with
a light heart for the time being. and
something better will surely turn up
by and by. You get much further by
forcing optimism than by yielding to
pessimism.
If you have faith in yourself and
your object a few rocks along the
wayside won't bother you much. You
will realize that failures may be STEP
ping stones, and not put 1t down to
mere bad luck which you can't con-
troll.
Don't worry about tomorrow or next
week or next month 1t is so much
time, energy, and mind force gone to
waste.
Try to hold the thought that for ev-
cry need there Is a supply.
Never plunge into an orgy to for
get failure-later on you are only
ashamed of your weakness and 1t
might add to your crouch.
Don't wheedle for somebody's sym
pathy or assistance. Your own advice
to yourself is better than long winded
counsel from people who only half
understand your mind and condition.
Never expect a miracle of luck I'M
less you can do miracles of hard work
and are a miracle of endurance and
resolve.
When luck begins to come your way
don't brag about it to others. They
may not wish you well.
Even though you have learned to
rough it in the lean years, don't be-
come parsimonious when the outlook
is better. Give and thou shalt re-
caiye.
Bad luck will surely overtake you
again IL you selflshly hug your mate
rial success.
Sacrifice little of your luck to the
gods and you'll have more of it-don't
be a foolish spendthritt but a benevo-
lent helper If you want luck to hold.
Finally, when luck has come your
way in the definite form of many dol
lars, don't be so rapaciously hungry
for more that you go plugging after it
with sand in your eyes. Soul blind
ness is always punished in the end.

His Body Made Into Candle.

A grisly and revolving bequest IS
that recorded by DR.. Forbes: A Ger.
tain individual. who, having been
crossed in love, concluded to end an
unhappy and disappointing life, or.
dered his body to be boiled down, and
all the fat to be extracted there from
to be used in making candle, which
was to be presented to the object of
his affections. together with a letter
containing his adieus and expressions
of undying love. The time chosen for
the delivery Of the candle and the let
ter was at night, in order that the lady
might read the touching lines by this
veritable Corpse Candle" The will,
the learned DR.. D. Winslow tells us,

Americans Now Realize Impor-
tance of Minimizing Chances
of Accidents.
EMPLOYERS LEAD THE WAY
European Countries Are Far Ahead of
the United States in the Matter
Of Safety Appliances for Indus
tries and the farm.

Particular stress is most properly
being made upon the work Of accident
prevention. We are now passing out
OF the age Of cure. We are getting
down to basic principles In ali spheres
of life, in attempting to minimize the
possibilities of things happening. The
new chair of preventive medicine at
Harvard Medical school is symptom
attic. We have begun a systematic
agitation OF the American people tend
ing to teach the theories and prac-
tices of fire prevention, and the work
Of accident prevention Is a compile
mentary step in the same direction.
Coming as this step does from the
manufacturers of the country, the en-
ployers, there is reason TO believe
that the work will be carried out in
large detail and should be supported
by the rank and file of citizens and the
legislatures Of every state. The
whole problem is difficult and compl-
Gated, and much thought and time and
some experimentation will be neces-
sary before an adequate and proper
system can be evolved befitting the
acceptance OF the system. Such
system, however, should be evolved
before the legislatures of various
states have added to the general COM
plicat1ons and "balled themselves up"
by the enactment of half way, incom-
petent, stupid and otherwise unsatis-
factory employers liability laws. II
we are not careful we shall have in
this connection very much the same
situation that we have in regard to
the divorce laws in this country,
where there is no harmony or unity
and where practically every state has
laws different from every other state
Governments throughout Europe
have long since established museums
of safety, institutions of accident pre-
Vention, permanent expositions and
working exhibits CT safety appliances
for Industries, and On the farm, as a
factor in the general education OF the
people. When We approach subjects
of this kind We begin to realize how
much truth there is in the criticisms
made III Europe of the educational
system of the United States. Matters
Of the utmost importance are not only
not a part Of our educational system
but they are scarcely even talked of,
save among the most progressive edu-
cationalists and rc!olmers, who are

Digging With Electricity.

the building Of the Erie canal, the
new electric dredges now being used
on the new barge canal across New
York state, will do the work of 700

trio dredges each have capacity Of
more than 10000 cubic yards of earth
day. This huge machine consists
of boatlike body, one end Of which
is provided with huge pipe which
can be directed against the sides and
body of the canal. The nose of this
pipe is equipped with cutting ap-
paratus which loosens the dirt and
muck and mixes 1t with water, so It
can be readily sucked up and dis
charged through a second pipe far out
on the canal bank. The suction and
transmission apparatus is operated
by large electric motors. The barges
receive their power from nearby
transmission lines, which parallel the
proposed canal. A floating sub
station handles the current and dis
tributes it to the working barges.-
