Dredges Yield Much
 of State Gold.

That the gold dredges will produce fully 35 per cent of California's 1912 gold yield is established by the prelim- mary reports from the fields of the State. It is probable that even this percentage will be surpassed. as of the LOO ,0O0$ indicated gold output for the year more than 5000. .00O$ is credit ed to the gold ships. While the great est increase has been recorded by the Folsom and Yuba river fields, the two main dredging districts of the State, the most eventful development of the industry for the year has been the ex- ploitation of the Virgin fields in Trinity county. This field, situated in the extreme northwestern portson of the State, has long been famous for it's placer mines, and it's hydraulic proper ties have for years yielded magnificent revenues.-Sacramen Union.

Croupy Coughs And Wheezy Colds.

The quickest simplest way to rid the children of dangerous croupy coughs and wheezy stutfy colds is to give them Foley's Honey and Tar Con- pound. It gives almost instant relief and stops cough promptly. It soothes and heals. Contains no opiates. H.. L. Blomquist, Esdaile, Wis.,, says: My wife considers Foley's Honey and Tar Compound the best cough cure and it gives the best results" H. H. Watkins, Druggist.

east coasts of Newfoundland and
spreads into the Atlantic, or fol-
lows the New England coast. 1t
is estimated that icebergs travel
attain average rate of II miles per
day. But if the wind is blowing
with the current the speed may
reach 20 miles a day or more.
Icebergs can be easily seen dur
ing the day, except in foggy or
stormy weather, but at night
vessel can sail quite close without
the ice being detected. Science
has not, up tol the present, de-
yised any certain means of locat-
ing the presence of ice. Barometic
and temperature changes are not
certain indications. The greatest
help the mariner has at present is
afforded by the ice and meteoro-
logical charts issued by the
United States government each
year.
1t is possible for ships to be
constructed as to suffer little or
no damage in ice collisions. The
present whalers, sealers and other
arctic vessels are practically ice

into an iceberg at full speed and
steer off or back away almost un-
harmed.
If the Atlantic passenger YES
sells continue to use the present
sailing tracks means must be
taken to similarly safeguard
them.
Little attention was given to
this important matter by the
builders of the Titanic; they
wanted to construct a gigantic
floating palace of great speed.
They succeeded, but the fate of
the vessel indicates serious de-
fects that will, perhaps never be
told.
Although the Titanic was pro-
vided with IS water-tight COM
partmentS she had a double bot
tom which was not divided up.
With her enormous momentum
she would simply telescope on
colliding with an iceberg. The
bottom would give way and per-
NIT water to run into all her COM
partments. Something of this
kind must have occurred.

ing More Attention to conserVa-
ton Of Soil Moisture.

The damage directly attributable to
loss to farmers. II we would devote
more attention to the work Of conserv-
ing soil moisture during the spring
and early summer, the summer
droughts would be far less destructive
to our growing crops
There are few seasons when there
Is not sufficient moisture to mature
good crops If proper methods are en-
ployed in handling our soils 80 that
the moisture will not be lost through
evaporation, during the primary
growth of the crops.
The growth Of crops should not be
retarded at a time when 1t is within
our power to provide them with
moisture.
The, average farmer begins everv
spring with an average supply Of
moisture in his soils to supply the
crops through a rainless season, but
on most OF our farms the lack OF
drainage and indifference to the con-
servation Of moisture reduces the yield
After the soil moisture has been. al.
lowed to evaporate we are powerless
to provide new supply for the crops
that have been robbed. Summer
draughts can be avoided in no other
way than by improving the water-
holding capacity of the soils and shap-
ing tie methods oftillage and cultiva'
tica so that we may prevent the loss
of the moisture with which they are
saturated at the beginning of the
season.
On many soils undertakings is
necessary and will produce wonderful
changes in the character of the soil.
1t improves its action toward heat
light, penetration or rootG, and the
implements used in preparation and
cultivation and stimulates bacterial
action. which we are just beginning to
appreciate as an important factor in
soil fertility.
