THE FARMER'S OWN DEPART
 MENT

The Department of Agriculture be- lieyes that farming is a business and must be made to yield a profit.
 The home is part of the business plant, and for this reason the depart ment makes public methods to save money, labor and waste motion.
 The work falls into two fields: (a) the protective side: (b) increased production and increased profit side. On the protective side note the de- CT to overcome plant disease, to pre- vent and stop ravages of insects and other pests and blights and to deal effectively with contagious diseases and epiden1ics among plants and an- imals.
 ernment's work begins with the actual soil. The bureau of soils has for years been making complete soil analyses and has furnished each county studied with complete maps showing the nature of the soil, the crops best suited and how to treat the soils
 The dairy division conducts work to cut from herds unprofitable cattle, to produce and ship dairy products with greatest profit and to increase values.
 Another bureau pays especial at tention, to poultry, showing how to produce eggs and dressed poultry so as to command highest market prices Other bureaus search the world for new agricultural products which might be pro6tably raised on Ameri- can soil.
 The biological survey specializes on the protection of birds and wild an imals which are beneficial to farm ing, and on the eradication of anil nal pests.
 The cost of hauling farm produce over bad roads can easily run up to 25 cents a ton 8 mile and so make it i'm possible to compete on equal terms with producers located on good roads The department maintains a special office of public roads which is conduct ing extensive experiments to secure good roads over which the farmer may haul his produce to market.
 An office of markets will investigate thoroughly the possibilities of supply ing farmers with market quotations and will endeavor to aid them in CO., operative and other forms of selling.
 This office also will take up the ques- tions of shipping farm produce.
 The department is ready and anxious to see that every farmer receives the benefits of it's service.

PASTORS ADVOCATE
PUBLISHING OF BANS
Resolution at Convention Pro-
Vides for Board to Consider
Change of Canon.

That the publication of the nsns of
marriage. As proposed by a resolution
at the Episcopal convention. would go
far to prevent hasty marriage and bring
consequent reduction in the number
of divorces, is the belief of several Epis-
copal rectors in Washington.
The resolution provides that COM
mittee of churchmen and laymen be
named to consider the desirability of
amending canon 80, so as to require
before the solemnization of q marriage
by minister of the church the publica-
ton of the bans in the church, OF the
publication of civil license in some
newspaper. The resolution also pro-
vides that certificate should be made be-
fore marriage that the parties to the
contract are normal mentally and fit
physically.
AS to this latter proposition the pas
tors are divided. many believing that
the church should not bind itself until
more is known about the science of
eugenics. AS TO the publication of the
bans. however, many favorable express
sions were given.
The Rev. T. S. Childs. of All Saints
Church the Rev. G. FreeIand Peter,
associate rector of the Church of the
Snyder, of the Church of the Incarna-
tion. all believed the convention at New
York might wisely make provision for
the publication of the baDis. believing
that such a plan would prevent many
marital mistakes.

FOLLY OF A SCOTCH SYNDICATE
ENTAILS LOSS OF QUAR-

Of the Glasgow 4 Western company
at Golconda, built twenty years ago
at cost of approximately a quarter
of a million dollars and upon which
probably as much more has been ex-

plant, representing an enormous eX-
penditure of Scotch and English cap
ital, is to be dismanted by the pur
chaser, the Sugarman Iron and Metal
company of San Francisco, and the
material and machinery will be sold
on the ground.
The big junk deal, the largest ever
made in the state, was closed in Salt

the representative of the Glasgow &
Western NJ l.. Siegel of Winnemuc-
ca took a prominent part in the
deal, upon which he has been work
ing for some time.
The work of dismantling the big
plant is to be started at once and
: will not be completed for several
months. Included in the sale were a
thirty-ton sampling MILL hardly used,
at all. and complete five-stamp
quartz mill which was never set up.
E These will be sold at but fraction
of their cost, together with a million
! feet Of lumber, two million brick
: one hundred tons of corrugated iron
several railroad ore cars and an enor
