NEVADA CONSOLIDATED
INCREASING PRODUCTION

During the past two weeks the ay-
.erage production of ore from the
Copper Pit of the Nevada Consolidat-
ed has been increased to about 10,
900 tons daily, which places it sec
ond only to that Of Utah Copper as
a producer in the United States. But
the limit of the Nevaad Consolidated
has by no means been reached. Dur
ing the past two weeks the increased
production OF ore has been easily
hand ed by seven sections Of tue
concentrator, and when the eighth
goes into commission about eleven
and a half Thousand tons of ore will
be treated daily. 1t has been dem
onstrated that Copper Pit alone can
easily produce at the rate OF l5,000
tons cf ore daily, in addition to which
the new Liberty Pit can soon be
drawn upon for several thousand tons
should the occasion demand. Estimat'
ing from the usual average grade OF
the ore coming from Copper Pit, 1t is
reasonable to suppose tla- the output
OF copper for the present month
will be increased to about 100000
pounds, a record which. will doubt

Most Remarkable Values in

The Famous Brill Specials for Men and Young Men
The best that can be had at Sis, we
ever invite comparison with those sold
elsewhere at $40, so confident are we
of their wonderful value. The immense
purchasing and selling strength of the
Five Brill stores is concentrated in
them, to an unusual extent.
For, despite our large sales of better
grade clothes up to $50, the Brill Stores
are undoubtedly the largest and best
sellers of suits and 0~verc0ats at SIS and
at $40. And the reason is, obviously,
the unusual values to be had here in
clothes at these prices.

At this season of the year tbs
forest or wood lot Is perhaps the
most attractive place that can he
found and q visit there will remind
us OF the utility and beauty Of such
places on the farm.
In an article on forestry by the Cot
lego of Agriculture a few weeks ago
attention was called to the fact that
dependence can not much longer be
placed upon the lavish supply Of tim
Der that nature placed In this country
for us to draw upon. Vast and valu-
able forests remain, but the demand
for timber has increased beyond pro-
portion. Consideration OF the SUD
ject convinces us that We must pro-
vide ourselves by our own thought
and labor with the timber which ma
ture has favored us with thus far. In
the limited areas OF European coun-
tries, this condition has long sinre
been reached, and the care Of forests
BE- the governments or private cor
porations has proven to be successful.
The high price Of railroad ties has
led railroad companies to utilize many
waste areas along their roads for tree
planting, rather than depend entire
ly upon the vanishing supply hereto
fore drawn upon. All those who ira
vel are familiar with the beautiful lit
tie wood lots with catalpas. black To-
Gusts, ETC.. set rather thickly in rows
or otherwise. making their growth to
te ready a few years hence when
the forest supply Of ties or posts IL
even more nearly exhausted than now.
Railroad officials are business men
and see things from business stand
Joint, and the farmer and school
teacher must realize that their sue
cess lies In their taking q similar
view OF all affairs Of life. The school
can best of all take the lead In such
work, II to do nothing more than fos-
ter the spirit Of forest conservation
among the boys and girls. An air OF
novelty In the routine of a school
enhances the value Of the school to
the child and OF the teacher to the
whole community. With this in view,
a few words regarding a school for
est nursery may not be amiss here.
This is the season when most Of

FORESTRY FOR THE SCHOOL AND FARM

the seeds OF forest trees can be best
gathered. An excursion by the teach
or and hor pupils to some neighbor-
ing timber land for the purpose OF
gathering seeds will prove most In
teresting and instructive. The hick-
DRY nut, walnut, acorn, Usage orange.
honey locust, locust, catalpa, and in
Vulnerable other species native to
kentucky may be secured. An extra
supply should be obtained TO be ex-
changed for seeds of raror species.
This exchange may be accomplished
through the Bureau OF Forestry, al
Washington, ID. G. The greatest eco
nomlc value may be expected from
native species, but the novelty Of un-
dertaking is Increased by adding the
rarer species.
The seeds should be well dried for
a couple OF weeks and then buried IN
box In dry sand or chaff or some
such material, and the box lowered
into the ground. leaving about six In
chos above tho earth, this to be cover
cd and mounded over with earth.
Such a provision will not sprout the
seeds, and on the other hand will
not allow them to dry out too much.
The seeds can be most advantageous
ly planted in the spring. Alternate
freezing and thawing will destroy
seeds. but with the treatment mem
toned injury may not be feared in
this latitude. Walnuts, hickory nuts
and acorns must be kept In the
ground over winter to facilitate their
sprouting in the spring. Such seeds
as black locust that have very hard
coats should be put into a canvas bag
and immersed in water nearly boil
ing hot and allowed to cool IN It. and
stand for about twenty-four hours.
but like the hickory and walnut must
be planted Immediately on taking
out to prevent their drying, which
would be fatal.
The ground should be thoroughly
prepared and MANFRED at this sea-

THE MINISTER'S SON

They say that the minister's boy
is wild and wicked and bad. that
he is shiftless. lazy and thriftless.
short on ambition, long on straw
rides, pool and poker, shy on useful
work, churlish. boorish, ninny and
a nance.
Compared with other boys, we are
told by those who pretend to know,
he is everything that they are not
and nothing that they are. The one
builds and enriches the world by his
industry they say and the other,
contributing nothing in helpful eff
fort to the civilization Of which he
is a part, lives by the Drawn, and
the brain of his brother. One wins
the big prizes of life and the other,
