SOIL FERTILITY.

A Nebraska farmer who farms with
his head as we'll as his hands contrib.
utes the following to his home paper
We read Of abandoned coal mines
and oil wells, as we'll as abandoned
gold and silver mines. Why? Because
the earnings fell below the cost of
production. Crop statistics prove
that our crops in Nebraska are get
ting lighter and lighter to an alarm
ing extent, and no doubt our system
of farming is to blame. According to
the government report the Nebraska
corn crop amounted to 1876, 1868, 900
bushels. We fell far below Iowa and
Missouri both in absolute yield and
in yield per acre. The census figures
for the year 1879 give the average
yield of corn in this state as 4O.1
bushels per acre, and ten years lat
err (1SS9) at 1914 bushels. In 1889
I16 ylSlu ldu IdIltu W 900
and in 1909 another census period,
it is estimated at but 24.S bushels
A fall of the total yield may indi'
cate nothing but increased acreage
of other crops, but this steady decline
in yield per acre can mean but one
thing-a backward tendency. APP
parently it means that improved seed
and tillage, proper crop rotation and
other improved methods of farming
are not yet employed widely enough
to offset the effects of years of soil
skimming. The farmer who says OF
thinks his land is so rich that it can't
be exhausted is no less ridicuously
wrong than the man who says his
bank account is so big it can't be
exhausted. Let the one take more
fertility out of his soil than he de-
posits again, or the other take more
money out of his bank than he puts
back and both Of them will go broke.

KUHNs ARE ALL RIGHT IN IDAHO
Gigantic Enterprises in The Gem State
Are Not Affected by Their Recent
Difficulty Says Official.
(PocatellO Tribune)

NIOCulSllU lIIuuASJ
Paul de Pence OF fsarfsys France, was
a visitor in Pocatello yesterday, the
guest ofD. C. .MacWatters of Twin
Falls, with whom he came to Poca-
tello on the limited train from the
west. Mr.. MacWatters, is general
manager of the various Kuhn enter
prises in Idaho, and NJ. De Pence
represents a syndicate of French cap
itnlists who are holders Of some of the
Kuhn brothers securities.
NJ. de PeIze's visit to Idaho at this
time was to look over the great irri-
cation enterprises in the state, financ
ed by the Kuhns, the success of which
it was feared for time might be en-
dangered by the financial embarrase-
ment into which the Pittsburgers
were plunged some time ago. They
have since fully recouped, and those
IT. close touch with the situation feel
convinced that their various gigantic
Pre- Ccts viii be carried out in This
western country.
N. de Pence expressed himself to
Tribune man as being startled by
the magnitude of the Kuhn enter
rrises in this state. With character
i:tic racial yolubility end expressive
ness he enthused over the wonders Of
the Twin Falls country. His report
to his fellow Parisians will undoubt-
eddy be of the most glowing charac-
ter.
Press reports to the effect that
the Southern Idaho Water Power
n T1 Re --yIy;nny, one of the Kuhn enterprises
.r.seer tbal had stopped work on
enlargement ~ hydro-electric
plant at American Falls and would
not keep pace, therefore, with the
rapid growth of the towns served by
it, are without foundation" said Mr..
MacWatters to a Tribune man during
his brief visit in the city.
I'VE have merely suspended work
OF extension and enlargement for the
time being, pending the outcome OF
condemnation proceedings involving
overlooked lands at American Falls.
Our contemplated new unit at the
American Falls plant will not be put
in this year, because of the exorbi-
tant prices asked for overlooked
lands, but we hope that satisfactory
settlement will be effected in time for
construction next year There will
be no let-up of general work all along
the line"

Desert

The field notes, maps, and plats OF
the general land office approved by
the commissioner are conclusive evil
!cnce of surveys of public lands, and
when they show that land is not sur
veyed, no other evidence is competent
TO approve a survey. Land cannot be
patented until survey is made and ap-
proved.
The maps and plats on file in the
general land office are conclusive
upon all persons as to the proper de-
scription of public lands. l ncase of a
resurvey, the final plating and desig-
nation of portions of sections must be
confOrmed. Whatever may have been
the description given in the original
entry before resurvey, the position on
the ground of a desert land entry can
be conformed to resurvey, at least ap-
proXimately.
The patent when issued must follow
the lines Of survey as finally settled.
BY no other means can certainty of
description and title be attained.
The fourth section Of the act of
March s, 1891, requires the exhibition
of plan of irrigation. The right to
the water and its quantity and per-
manency must also be shown While
the plan adopted may be unusual, yet
if it is productive of reclamation it
NETS the essence of the requirement.
Until further notice lands will not
be considered as barred from desig-
nation under the enlarged homestead
acts simply because they may be en-
braced in desert land entries if the
lands be in all other respects subject
to such designation.

IMPROVEMENTS AT POCATELLO.
Bids Have Been Submitted and Con-
tract Will be Let in Few Days
For Gigantic Machine Shop.

Bids for the construction of a gil
gantic new Short Line machine shop
building in Pocatello were opened n
Salt Lake City Wednesday, A con-
tract will be awarded, it is believed,
within the next few days. 1t is said
the lowest bid was something over
100000 which does not include the
steel Orders for travelling cranes, nor
number of other necessary pieces of
equipment, which are to be provided
for a later appropriation. The ap-
preparation now available is only
$125,000 but from reliable sources
it is learned that the budget calls for
$350,0O0, to complete the new shop
plan.
The proposed new shop, which will
be located just across the transfer
table from the present main shop,
will be $50 feet wide and 1926 feet
long. 1t will be about the same
height as the old shoD, and will house
the wheel room, coach shop, black
smith shop and boiler shop. The old
shop will be used exclusively for ma
chine repair work. In the coach shop
of the new building there will be a
steel balcony or gallery, 50x60.
Concrete, brick and steel will be
the material used in the new shop.
1t is expected that work will begin
within a week or so and be rushed to
completion by next year.
The construction Of this mammoth
addition to the already gigantic rail-
road shop plant in Pocatello means
doubling of the payroll here and the
establishment of the Gate City as the
most important railroad point in the
inermountain Countrywide Pocatel
10 Tribune.

OBLIGED TO BUY OPIUM.

LONDON - Lieutenant General
Chang, a delegate Of the National
Opium Prohibition union of China
who has been in England three
months, endeavoring to induce the
British government to release China
from their obligation to receive any
more Indian opium, started Friday for
China to report to Provisional Presi-
dent Yuan Shi Kai the failure of his
mission. In statement issued to the
British public Friday General Chang
said:
"Our people are in earnest in their
efforts to rid themselves Of the opium
evil, and they cannot help feeling re-
sentiment aginst a country which is
forcing upon us the very article by
which we were degraded and dis
graced 1t is intolorable when we re-
fleet we are sacrificing millions of
revenue and hundreds of lives in
struggling against enormous difficult
ties that a foreign country should
force us to receive for two or three
years longer the poison we earnestly
are striving to stamp out.
The lieutenant general concluded by
appealing to the British friends of
China ito do their utmost to induce
the British government to join with
us in removing the root of wrong and
in promoting righteousness in the
world"

Building a Home

requires careful planning for

must be easily negotiable We
we found that a little thought
and attention given to original
plans works wonders when 1t
comes to selling a house. Buy
ers like style and individuality
and these are the things that
pay big dividends because they
can be secured usually with
little more first cost than the
plain square designs. Doubt
less you've often wondered why
some houses sell more readily
than others-that's the an
swer. If you're contemplating
a new home maybe we can help
you out with a suggestion IL

The status of land at date of appli-

it would be to give an unfair advan-

the applicants to keep off intending
