stir the surface soil; wash the pots

Plants that are intended for bedding

ALFALFA COMPLETES
WITH CORN FOCO

The village of Ansley, Nebraska, has
suddenly leaped into prominence. 1t
has population of only 70, but last year
it shipped to market more than $500, 600
worth of fat cate, sheep hogs and horses.
Ansley is in the State of Nebraska and
its prominence is due to its leadership in
the cultivation and use of alfalfa. 1t
was chiefly alfalfa that fattened the live
stock that brought the town such i'm
mense profits last yaar. 1t is Ansley
that has convinced Nebraskans that al
falfa has risen up to dispute for first
place with corn in the production of fat
stock and ushered in a new era i'll the
livestock industry.
The advocates of alfalfa are producing
mighty interesting figures and facts to
prove their contentious They insist
that the average profit from quarter
section of corn land is $3.50 while the
same land in alfalfa will yield all average
return of 81 ,920 They poirt out that
alfalfa enriches the soil while corn i'm
poverishes it. They show that with
alfalfa available there is no need for corn
except for finishing purposes and that it
can even be dispensed with for that

MAUTE NOW HEAD
OF CARSON MINT

Washington, June l3.-The President
today sent to the Senate this nomina-
ton: Assayer at the mint at Carson
Nevada Maute.
X. {. Colcord, who is deposed by this
appointment, was once Governor of this
State. He held the position of assayer,
otherwise known as Superintendent, and
sometimes as Director of the mint, ever
since the big scandal, which resulted in
several people connected with the estab-
lishment being sent to prison and others
held under surveillance for some time.
About the time that Governor Colcord
was placed i'll this position coinage
ceased at the mint, and it is now merely
a government assay Office, where bnllion
is purchased in large quantities
The change WAS not made through any
unfitness of Mr.. Colcord, but in order to
rotate the patronage of the office.
Andrew Maute, who succeeds to the
position, is one of Nevada's oldest resi-
dents. He filled the office of State
Printer for two terms i'll a very sat
isfactory manner.

Alfalfa now has reached such a stage
of development that it can be used for
human consumption-at least the root of
it can. {. +. Waters, an enterprisine
farmer residing near Spray, Ore, has
completed experiments that convince
him that the root of the ordinary COM
mercial alfalfa plant can be treated so
that they will be readily edible as well
as highly nourishing and palatable.
He has arranged to construct large
building for canning alfalfa roots ana
expects to offer his products to the trade
within the present year. The roots can
be taken from the ground after the crops
of several seasons have been harvested,
so that the plant is given an added value.
Mr.. Waters declares that by proper treat
ment the clever housewife can convert
canned alfalfa roots into a variety of
tempting dishes, which can be served
either as a vegetable or as a dessert.

THE ORIGIN OF
ARTESIAN WATER

Whence comes artesian water 1t is
believed by many persons that artesian
water is stored up in the depths of the
earth in great reservoirs or exists as
mysterious underground rivers which
eventually find their way to the surface.
II is true that the water is stored up III
underground reservoirs, but not as pop
ularly supposed With the exception of
a few caverns of comparatively small ex-
tent such reservoirs bear no relation to
open basins OF the surface type, but are,
as a rule, rock strata, or masses i'll which
the only openings are spaces between
the grains or along lines of solution
planes of jointing cleavage or bedding
or other assures.
The probable source OF underground
water has been widely discussed, and
while every one would doubtless agree
that by far the greater part is derived
from rainfall there is considerable vari-
alton of opinion as to the relative inn
portance OF the other sources, such as
seepage or absorption of water from the
ocean. or the release of otherwise UNI
available waters in the earth's crust
which have been set free, by physical or
chemical exclusion.
Bulletin 3l9 OF the United States Geo
logical Survey. entitled Summary OF
the Controlling Factors of the Artesian
Flows" by Myron l., Fuller, discusses
the subject of the theory and behavior OF
artesian wells. A copy may be obtained
on application to the director of the sur
vey at Washington.

AUTO ROUUE
ACROSS STATE

The recent overland trip made by
Gale 5. Hoag, as Secretary of the Ely
Commercial League from Ely to Salt
Lake, via Milford, Utah. for the purpose
of securing data for new trans-con-
tinental auto route through Utah and
Nevada, is bearing fruit. MIR. Hoag
is in receipt of letter from the secretary
of the Auto Club of America, acknowledge
ing the receipts of the maps and other
information compiled by Mr.. Hoag, in
which the secretary makes the following
statement.
I'VE will take pleasure in the near
future in adding this route to our new
book and will advise all transcontinental
motorists to follow it rather than the old
route north of Salt Lake"
The above practically means that in
the future all trans continental travel
will be routed via Salt Lake and Ely for
the west, instead of via Ogden and
around the northern end of the lake,
which is a much longer and harder route.
The auto fans of Salt Lake City will
soon have a splendid road finished
between Evanston and Salt Lake City,
distance.
Mr.. Hoag expects, in the near future,
to map two routes from Ely to Carson
City and Reno. In order to do this it
will be necessary for Mr.. Hoag to per-
sonally make the trip over the proposed
route. which will be done in an auto.
The route as now planned will be from
Ely to Currant Greek, Hot Creek, Tono-
pali. Sodaville, Hawthorne, Gardnerville,
Genoa. Carson City and Reno. The
return trip will be made from Reno to
Wadsworth, Fallon, Fairview. East Gate,
Austin, Eureka and Ely Both routes
are very direct and avoid long stretches
of bad country. As soon as these
routes have been properly mapped and
the data compiled. the information will
be forwarded to the Automobile Club OF
America. which publishes the Auto Book,
which is the guide OF all tourists and
travellers.
The Record learns from the Carson
City papers that an effort is being made
to improve the auto road between that
city and Lake Tahoe. which will give
almost direct transcontinental line from
Salt Lake CITY via Ely aud Carson City
to San Francisco, which will shorten the
time materially over the former route via
los Angeles and then up the coast to
San Francisco.
The Ely Commercial League, and
especially its secretary, Mr.. Hoag is
entitled to much credit for the success
so tar made in getting Ely placed on the
line of the trans. continental route, either
To Los Angeles or San Francisco. When
the Panama Pacific Exposition opens,
the route will he lined with autos. Ely

Decision in Ell PasO Case
Of Property Ownership.
Part Of Land Goes TO City and
Part Is Given 10 Mexico.
Both the Countries Oissent.-About
100000 Worth Is Involved.

FL Paso, Tex, June 15.-The inter-
been sitting in the so-called Chamizal
case, in FL Paso to decide ownership
of $1,000. 200 worth of property in the
southern part of Ell Paso, today rem
dered it's decision which is a compro-
mise.
The decision gives Mexico part of
the land in question and FL Paso part
of it, Both the United States and
Mexico dissent.
The Chamizal case has been in con-
tentien between the two governments
for over dozen years. 1t was really
brought to the fore. when w. j. War
der of California filed in special court
here to Dust persons holding title to
the land under the Texas laws, War
der alleging that he held title from
Mexico under the Chamizal grant.
He raised the point that the land
had been thrown into the United
States by a sudden change of the river
and that therefore it belonged to
Mexico. The treaty of the United
States and Mexico provided that where
the river makes a sudden change the
land thrown from one country to the
other remains the property of the
country to which ii formerly belonged
but if the change is gradual, by
erosion, the territory belongs to the
lcountry into which it is thrown. The
