OF
 PRECIOUS STONES

It may perhaps be surprising to many people to learn that the United States produces almost every variety of precious stone-from diamonds down. The precious stones produced in this country last year had a value of S295, ,797, against S534 ,3S0 in 1909, according to an advance chapter from Mineral Resources of the United SttaeS'' on the production of gems and precious stones in 1910 by Doug las 2. Sterrett. just published by the United States Gee 7ogical Survey. The large decrease in the output of a few of the more important gem miner als- tourmaline, turquoise, chryso- Drase, etc says MT. Sterrett. readily accounted for the fall in the value of production. As an instance of this decrease in production, about S1a tons of rough turquoise were produced in 1910, as compared with more than r tons in 1909,
 All the diamonds produced in this country in 1910 came from Arkansas and California. the Cuput of Arkansas amounting to about 200 stones. Sev- eral diamonds were found in California last year. one of which weighs about half a carat and another being 34 and ? carats The latter is a brilliant faWleSs stone, with a tinge Of vel low
 Colorado yields some very pretty lgates and some are being successful ly handled in the tourist trade, but number of these stones sold each year Tt the summer resorts of the State are imported from Germany, where they have been polishd. Others are native stones polished abroad, altho some are polished in the United States
 In Montana sapphire weighing over 413 carats has been found. This stone when discovered had very much the shape of a rough diamond crys- tai, on account of which it had very great refractory power.

GOOD CROPS FOR

QUICK RESULTS.
 Colorado Springs, Colo.-It is all very well for scientists to study and delve and dig for the ultimate saliva tion of the farmer in the dry-land belt, but first tell him-and do it quickly-what to grow that will bring in money. This, in effect, was the cOmman-sense principle voiced at the International Dry-Farming Con- gress by Prof. w. M. Jardine of Kan sas.
 Thief armer isn't concerned about fertility and nitrtaes and inoculatiOn, and things like that said Prof Jar dine. What he wants is a living and hewants it now We must help him thing now; tell him how to feed his family, first, and then he will be in a position to take up and study the more technical problems of farm life.
 Prof. Jardins told the farmers to raise potatoes, as one of the surer means Of getting an immediate living on the dry lands For seed, he said in brief, use selected tubers, hand picked. If not too large, plant single tubers with only one or two eyes If large, cut in halves. Two eyes are better than six in seed potatoes. Plant in rows, three feet apart, and two feet apart in the rows, four inches deep. Subsoiling is fairly satisfactory. Plant Early Patoskey, Irish Cobbler and Early Ohio.
 These varieties do not give the largest yields, I admit, said the speaker, but they are the earliest, and. therefore, the most advisable be- cause the farmer may need the mon ey.
 Only three crops on the dry lands are making money" Prof. Jardine de clared: Wheat, milo and flax. Why not add potatoes to the list and in- crease the income?"
