LARGE SALT PRODUCTION.
Figures of United States Geological Sur
vey Show Increased Output

The United States produced 30,305, $3.50
barrels of salt in 1910, valued at 81 ,900,-
344, according to figures compiled by w.
c. Phalen and just published by the
United States Geological Survey. This
was an increase of l9S,0l0 barrels over
the production Of 1909 but decrease
in value amounting to S443,4s7. The six
leading producers of salt in 1910 were
New York. Michigan Ohio, Kansas, Lou
isiana and California. Nearly 90 per
cent. Of the salt consumed in the coun-
try was obtained from domestic sources,
the United States having long been indie
pendent of foreign production.
Salt is thought of mostly in connec-
tion with cooking and seasoning, but it
has a great many other important appli-
cations. 1t is used largely in the preser-
walton of fish and meat, in the dairying
industry, and in chemical metallurgical
processes. 1t is also used as source of
chlorine employed in the manufacturing
of bleaching powders and in the chlorina-
tion of certain gold ores.
One of the main sources of salt is
common sea water and some of the Cali
ifornia product is obtained from the
ocean. w men sea water Is eNapDThIeu
to dryness, salt is among the first com
pounds to be deposited. The last are the
potash and magnesium compounds, these
being the most soluble The great Stass-
furt potash deposits are overlain as well
as underlain by salt, and ii is the opin-
ion Of biologists that potash may accom-
pany some of the known salt deposits
in this country.
In a recent geological survey report
on potash, written by Mr.. Phalen, the
hope is expressed that every salt pro-
ducer in the United States viii in the
future, when boring or otherwise explor-
ing for salt, be on the lookout for pos
sible occurrences of potash compounds.
AT present the geological survey has a
deep-drilling party at work in the arid
West, where vast deposits of salt are
known to exist, in an endeavor to find
possible sources of potash and nitrate
of soda Two of the three essential ele-
ments of complete fertilizer recog-
nized necessity for successful agriculture.

mine is issued as an advance chapter
from mineral Resources for l9l0'' and

TURKEYS FOR THANKSGIVING.
Supply Is Big and Prices Will Be Low,
Say Dealers.

Chicago, Nov. thanksgiving tur-
keys probably will be cheaper than for
many years, according to commission
men.
Dry weather in the late spring and
early summer is the principal reason for
big supply Of turkeys, dealers say.
The young turkey is the most susceptible
to bad weather of any domestic fowl.
1t is hard to keep turkeys under shelter,
and in roaming about the fields and in
the woods they fall easy victims to sud
den rains or changes of temperature.
The choice dressed stock is quoted at
II and Is cents pound, and the medium
and poorer grades are quoted as low as
IA cents by one dealer, who says there
will be more turkeys in the market than
for ten years. The retail price, he said,
should not be more than 30 cents a
pound Thanksgiving week, although I'M
favorable weather might send it up a
cent or two.

ting consists in getting the work done
at a time of year when the farmer has
more leisure than in the spring, when
the rush of farm work, of ploughing
and getting in crops has begun.
At whichever season the orchard is
set, the highest authorities have agreed
that hole should be dug for young
tree larger than its roots when straight
ened out. If any of the roots have
been broken in the digging they should
be cut OIL smoothly with a sharp knife,
in order that they may quickly heal
Before the tree is placed a stake should
be driven into the ground, to which the
tree can be tied TO prevent its being
waved about by The wind. If the stake
Is not driven until after the tree Is
set, there is danger that some of the
small roots may be crushed by the driy-
ing. The tree should be set near the
stake with its roots Strengthened out,
as they grow in the nursery; loose earth
OF good quality should be shoyeled
upon them and trampled solid with the
feet Should the weather be very dry,
a pail Of water should be put upon the
roots.
The label. or name Of the tree, should
be wired TO the stake, and not TO the
tree itself. The proper distance apart
for the setting Of apple trees is in rows
about 80 feet apart each way. This
gives abundant room for cultivating the
ground and raising grain crop, il de-
sirabe, or for the benefit of the trees
themselves. Trees will bear planted
closer than this, but when they have
become large IL win be difficult to get
about among them with wagon. More
over, in orchards where the trees are
planted too closely, the fruit never OBJ
tains such good coloring in the sun, and
consequently no such delicious flavor.
Too many farmers make a great mis-
take in planting too many summer and
fall varieties, and consequently they
have more early apples than they can
use or dispose Of before they have be-
come rotten and worthless. Nearly all
the trees in an orchard should be of
the best favored and longest keeping
winter varieties, Winter apples should
be gathered and stored as soon as they
are ripe. If left on the trees longer
than this they win become too ripe
and never keep so we'll. The writer
has kept apples the freshest and best
tasting by burying them in the ground.
They certainly have finer flavor then
than when kept in boxes in the cell
lar.

feeds fed on clean boards, or, better still,
in feeders, is an ideal way to feed tbs
young chicks. The feed given being dry
does not sour and does not cause bow
lei trouble. Neither do disease germs
adhere TO the particles to be taken into
the system when the particles are swal-
lowed The feed is present at all times,
so the chick can partake OF it as often
as il desires. 1t does not become hum
CRY nor does il overload its stomach
With this arrangement, If the right
kind of feed is given, there need be but
little loss from any of the stomach dis
eases. For the chick from one day to
three weeks of age the feeder should
with little cornmeal. After the birds
are three weeks old gradually increase
the amount Of eornmeal until at the end
of five weeks the birds are receiving
equal parts of cornmeal and oatmeal.
In case they do not get any insects
in the run little beef meal should be
added each day to the grain ration Beef
meal can be purchased from any dealer
who handles poultry supplies. Blood
meal or dried blood is also good, but it
should be fed with caution, as too much
of it will cause a loosening of the bow
els which may result in such weak
ening of the system that the bird will
fall an easy victim to disease
Keeping things sanitary will also pre-
vent many losses Nearly all of the
diseases and disorders are caused by
germs which inhabit the pores in the
ground where the little birds frequent.
The most of these germs, as said be
fore, become attached to wet feed and
are thus taken into the system. If the
run troughs and feeding vessels are thor
oughly disinfected these germs will be
killed and many of the destructive dis
eases will thus be prevented.
At least once each week the runs and
the places most frequented BY the birds
should be sprinkled with air-slacked lime
or strong solution made from water
and crude carbolic acid. Before this APP
plication is made the filth and trash
which have accumulated since the last
time the ground was cleaned should be
raked up, the ground thoroughly swept
and then the disinfectants applied.

MOVE AGAINST STANDARD OIL.
Independent Producers to Build a Re

Pittsburg, Pa, Nov. s.--The movement
of independent oil producers against the
Standard Oil company to force up the
price of crude oil has been given a great
impetus by the Butler county oil pro-
ducers subscribing $250,000 in stock to
back the refinery being erected at Bruin,
Pa. This refinery, No. /, has a capacity
of 10000 barrels month, and this will
be increased TO 10000 next spring. Plans
are also being made for the building of
another refinery
At mass meeting of Independent oil
men favorable to the movement against
the Standard Oil company, contracts
were exhibited with enough producers
to insure supply of oil for several
refneries, As soon as the financial plans
can be worked out, the additional refin-
cries will be built. The company pays
10 cents more than the Standard Oil
price in cash for crude, and the balance

FEED OF YOUNG CHICKENS.
Dry Feeds Least Likely to Cause Stom.
ach Troubles.

1t has been estimated that less than
one half of the eggs that are set hatch
and less than onehalf of those Matched
are raised. Many poultrymen count on
raising only one-fourth as many chick
ems as there are eggs set, and many
fall short of that amount. Under im-
proved conditions, such great loss is
entirely unnecessary. 1t is somewhat
late in the year to consider means Of
preventing losses at incubation, but q
few suggestions on how to prevent loss
after incubation may be Of interest and
benefit now, says the Philadelphia Rec
ord.
Careless feeding is the cause of more
deaths in the flock than any one other
thing. Mushy feeds and those which
have been allowed to sour cause bowel
trouble, which results in death in a
short time. Feeding wet feeds in filthy
spots and places which abound with
germs is another error which causes
many losses. Feeding too heavily at
time and not frequently enough is
another mistake which results seriously
to the birds.
Recent experiments show that dry
