Northern Light Copper company in Yer
ington. The meeting was called for the
purpose of giving an option on the prop
erty to y. G. Douglass, Jr., of Los An
geles. The greater portion of the out
standing stock of the company was rep
resented at the meeting, either in person
or by proxy The deal on for the prop
erty is to give Mr.. Douglass an option
OH 81 per cent of the outstanding stock
at price of FIVE cents per share The
option is to run for two years if those
taking it so desire, but can be taken up
at any time during that period Mr..
Douglass, on his part, agrees to spend
slO,OO per year in development work

The property is one of the old ones OF
the district, located on the east side,
and has some excellent showings on the
surface and for depth of about $50

He Fed the Grass

A larmer whose permanent pastures
were failing to produce enough grass was
told that they had become root-bound,
needed narrowing, re-seeding, etc But
he made up his mind that his pastures
needed fertility and began to give them
a light top-dressing of manure. He has
been gratified at the results, which
proved the correctness of his diagnosis.
Under his treatment he has good pas
lures again, with all prospects of their
remaining good, because he means to
keep on feeding them. Beyond doubt
there are many pastures which have run
down simply from lack of fertility.

What Dairying Does

On the dairy farm short system of
crep rotation revives old fields, puts all
crops near to the manure and fertilizer
used, increases the variety of feeds, adds
to their value through an increase in
their protein content and to their palata-
blity and ease of digestion.

AN ANSWER TO CROKER.
New York Architect Says Fire Escapes
Can Be Artistic.

New York Architect Says Fire Escapes
Can Be Artistic.
New York, March 2T.-"I guess Chief
Croker was hitting at nae when he
said that architects criticised his views
about having fire escapes on the fronts
Of Office buildings" said Francis n.
Kimbell, the architect who planned the
City Investing and Trinity buildings,
"but / never heard of any architect
who was opposed to outside fire es-
capes On loft buildings, particularly Of
the type of the building where the fire
occurred Saturday.
ut is amazing that such a thing
could have happened In New York,
and now Ia the time for the board of
aldermen to take some action for the
future. There have been meetings of
architects In regard to the fire scapes.
and late In the fall there was a COM
mittee appointed to bring in a report
TO the city authorities about the con-
dition of the escapes on our high Of
fee buildings. I believe that no report
has been made.
Chief Croker advocated outside fire
escapes ON all office buildings. but I
objected. 1t was not SO much that
they would be sInsightly, for q FIRE
escape can be planned along good lines
and made a really artistic adjunct to
any building, but because / Thought
and still think thsre are better ways
to accomplish the ana result and get
the occupants OF q building out In time
of danger. Every building in New
York should have what IL required by
law In Philadelphia IRE staircases."s

When Chief Croker entered the
building shortly after 8 O'Clock this
morning the only living thing he came
across was a mouse scrambling across

The fire chief picked up the mouse

The relatives or close friends who
were looking for their dead at the

White capped nurses from Bellevue
and the allied hospitals really had
more to do with the handling Of the
lines than the police. 1t was a com
mon sight to see a nurse instead OF
a policeman or eoroner's assistant
leading an aged woman or one Of
middle age along the line OF collins
Many times there would be heard a
shrek and a nurse would clasp her
arms around the woman, who had
begun to grow ~hysterical upon
recognizing her dead or who had faint
