EDISON WORKS
ON IDAHO ORE

Thomas A. Edison, the famous in
ventor, has become interested in Ida
hos mineral zone to such an extent
as to collect a number of samples of
ore upon which mining men here say
he is now experimenting in New York
to ascertain whether or not it will
yield to his new concentrating process.
which it is declared, if successful, will
revolutionize the treatment of ore.
Most of the ore that Edison has was
taken from the Morning mine in the
famous Occur d'Alene district. This
property is located at Mullen and is
owned and operated by the Federal
Mining & Smelling company.
The lead recovery of the mine now
is upon SO per cent basis, due to the
changed condition of the ore, for which
no wholly satisfactory method of
treatment yet has been discovered. At
other properties owned by the COM
pany the lead recovery is from 80 to
81 per cent. The tube process, in
stalled at the Morning mine, has made
a saving of $4,000 a month, and it is
announced that several units will be
added.

pany, which cut it's monthly dividend
rate from 25 to 20 cents to accumulate
a surplus of 100000, has ore in sight

IRISH HOME RULE
BILL BEING DRAWN

LONDON, Nov. IA cabinet COM
mittee, assisted by prominent Irish Of
ficials, has drafted a home rule bill
which will need a lot of whacking in
to shape before parliament can safely
be asked to vote on it. In it's present
shape the bill contains many blanks.
Considerable progress has been made,
however.
The bill provides that the Irish par
lament in Dublin shall have control
over Ireland's purely domestic af-
fairs" and that it shall not restrict
or impair the authority of the I'M
perial parliament in Westminster.
This is a surprise to those "imper-
ialists" who believe that Ireland seeks
separation from the mother country.
The Irish parliament must not in
terfere with the kings business. 1t
will not be permitted to make terms
of peace, or declare war, or make
treaties with foreign powers.
The king, through his proxy, the
lord lieutenant of Ireland, shall have
the power to summon, prorogue and
dissolve the Irish parliament, and to
veto any bill. This does not mean
much, however, as the Nationalist par
ty will have a permanent majority in
the Irish parliament, and if the lord
lieutenant vetoes a bill on which the
Nationalist party's heart is set, the
government will resign and it will
be impossible to replace it. The only
way out of the deadlock will be for
the lord lieutenant to surrender.
There will Of course, be a first
and second chamber, as in West
minister, and the members of the Sec
ond chamber will be Irish peers The
Nationalist are insisting that the
Irish peers shall have no greater
powers than are allowed to peers in
the imperial gilded chamber. That is,
they shall not have the power to
Veto The cabinet will probably de-
fer to the Nationalist in this matter.
The big question with which the
committee is struggling is: What are
purely domestic affairs?'" 1t is I'M
derstood that in the tentative draft
the Irish parliament is given full
control of customs and excise, which
constitute seven-tenths of Irish taxes.
If this clause is incorporated in the
bill when it is passed into law, it
will be a big victory for the home
rulers.
1t has been Professionally arranged
to give Ireland $50,O0O,000 with which

A Suggestion to the Agricultural
Student,
(From Idaho Country Life)


At this time of year hundreds of
young men and women are leaving
the farm home to begin the work of
the school year in our academies and
agricultural colleges. A great many
of these young people are planning
very definitely to return to the life Of
the farm upon completion of their
academy or college course and there
make practical use of the studies pur-
sued and the training received. To
this class of students, as rule, the
more intensely practical studies ap-
peal so strongly that the fundamental
science upon which such studies rest
is often partially or completely ignor-
ed. A common complaint of the agri-
cultural college graduate, is that he
finds himself at the end of his college
course in possession of a smattering
of several sciences but with no very
thorough grounding in any one. The
student should remember that the So
called Science of Agriculture" is in
reality but the application of the prin-
ciples of the semi-basic sciences to the
art of farming. Electives" offered
for graduation should clearly indicate
desire on the part of the student to
master star as possible the funda-
mental principles of at least one basic
science-biology, physics or chemistry.
To chemistry, more readily than to
any other science, is traceable the
basis for the many related industries.
1t would, therefore, seem a wise policy
on the part of the agricultural college
student to secure a thorough ground
ing in this science in his undergrad
uate days. 1t is only reasonable to
suppose, too, that the more thoroughly
the basic principles of this science are
understood, the wider and more intelli-
gent will be their application later on
in practical farm life, whether the
work in hand be the cultivation of the
soil, or maintaining sanitary house
hold. But whatever the science select
ed, concentration should be the watch
word in offering electives" for grad
uation.

Free Trade in Farm Pests.
(From Idaho Country Life)

Our customs laws have been so busy
protecting the farmer by putting high
duties on the things he buys that they
have quite overlooked the opportunity
to protect him in humber but more
profitable way. One result, says Mr..
Marriott, of the Department of Agri-
culture, in the National Geographic
Magazine, is that the United States
has become sort of dumping ground
for infected nursery stock. Austria
Hungary, France, Germany, Holland,
Switzerland and Turkey have absolute
ly prohibited the entry of nursery
stock from this country.
We have imported, duty free, the
Hessian fly, the Goblin moth, the
gypsy moth, the cotton boil weevil, the
San Jose scale and a choice assortment
of other pests which have caused
farmers and orchardists almost in
calculable loss. In single year the
Hessian fly has destroyed wheat that
would have been worth a hundred
million dollars at harvest. The aver
age annual loss from the cotton boil
weevil is estimated at twenty-five mil
lion dollars. Fully as great is the loss
to orchardists from the Goblin moth
and San Jose scale, while the New
England states are now spending over
a million dollars year in efforts to
exterminate gypsy and brown-tail
moths. A properly enforced quaran-
tine law in the past, says Mr.. Marriott,
would have excluded many of these
imported pests.

On the Utilization of the Cut and Burn
ed Over Timber Lands Of North
Idaho.
(From Idaho Country Life)

To those interested in the agricul-
tural development of the cut and
burned over timber lands of Bonner,
Kootenai and Latah counties we wish
to call attention to the following con-
siderations: These soils are known to
be rich in the essential mineral ele-
ments, but they need to be thoroughly
opened up to the chemical action of
air and sunlight in order to hasten the
destruction of harmful organic matter
and to render the mineral elements
available as plant food. Deep, thorough
blowing, preferably in the fall of the
year, together with frequent cultiva-
tons will accomplish this end and is
therefore the first step to be taken in
putting these soils in shape for their
first crop. In Bulletin 68 of the Idaho
Station we called attention to the fact
that the characteristic weakness of
these soils will develop on the organic
side. In nitrogen and the organic COM
pounds from which available nitrogen
is derived these soils are low. They
are capable of high state of develop
ment but to attain that state intensive
will be found essential
The ease with which the root crops,
legunes and other succulent feeds can
be grown in these soils, together with
the proximity to markets and the
facilities of northern
Idaho, emphasizes the natural adapta-
ton of those cut and burned over
timber lands to the dairy industry. 1t
is not too, much to expect that within
the next few years great deal of this
land will be reduced from the now I'M
cultivated state to the intensely cult
waited fields of the dairy farmer.
J. 8. JONES, Chemist.
