l believe more injury has been done
clay soils by blowing too deep than
by all the cropping yet done in the
country. One fact worthy of our at
tention is that in the cultivation of
clay soils we must keep the humus or
organic matter as close as possible to
the top of the soil until the physical
condition of the soil Is such that the
air may have access to the soil as
deep as the organic matter is turned
under.
Vegetable matter. when exposed to
the action of the air, will soon decom-
pose into carbon or vegetable mold
and carbonic-acid. Large quantities
of vegetable mold and carbonic acid
make the soil pillow up light. loamy
and free from clods. On the other
hand. If this organic matter is plowed
under deep, the air cannot reach 1t in
the saturated. wet soil, and the decom-
position goes on slowly. and the prod
uct will be widely different. Under
such conditions the nitnfying bacteria
cannot perform their work.
When the air can have free action
through the soil, the clods will decom-
pose into carbonic acid, which will
liberate the plant food in the soil and
provide the growing plants with nour-
ishment.
When 1t is desired to deepen the
cultivation Of clay soils. the work
should be gradual and there must be a
thorough intermixing of the soil with
vegetable matter as fast as it il
brought up from below.
AS general rule it will be better
to apply fresh manure to the clay
soils, for the reason that fresh manure
mixed with the soil goes through a
process of fermentation which not
only increases the availability of its
fertilizing elements, but also assists
in rendering soluble the portions of
hitherto insoluble constituents of the
soil
On a large proportion of clay soils
there will be more benefits from the
manure when 1t is applied as a top
dressing to the grass lands. In this
way we grow more manure to incor
porate with the soil when it is plowed.
After a clay soil has been improved
by undertakings, tillage, and fer
tilization SO that it will grow good
crops of clover, it is an easy matter
to adopt rotation of crops in con-
nection with live stock feeding that
will make sufficient manure to return
to the soil to maintain it in a high
state of fertility.

SIMMONS MAKES TARIFF REPORT
Upper House SIashes Figures Placed
by Representatives.

Washington. - Senator Simmons.
chairman. presented the report of the
Senate finance committee on the I'm
derwood tariff bill.
The report declared that the meas
ure makes an average reduction of
27.64 per cent from the rates of the
Payne law. The Senate committee
made reduction OF 4.22 per cent from
the rates in the bill as passed by the
House. The report estimates that re-
ceipts under the new bill will be;
from customs. s266. $3.50, 900; from in.
come tax, s5s.s30,000; from corpora
ton tax, s37,0O0,OOO; from internal
revenue, s2O7, 100000. and that other
sources will bring the revenue up to
s996,S10,000. The disbursements are
estimated at s994,79O,o0O.
The committee details the changes
that were made in the House bill, with
the causes which impelled this action.

The long-lost Cinnabar mine in Ne
vada has been found after a search
lasting more than thirty years. The
discovery was made some weeks ago
by George Keough while searching for
strayed stock, seven miles from Nina.
The discovery was kept secret un-
til claims were staked and assays
made of the ore. showing 1t to run
high in quicksilver.
Following the announcement of the
finding of the mine a rush was start
ed for the district in which 1t is
located.
Hawthorne. after finding the Gin
nabar deposit, became confused and
lost his way on the desert. He wan
dered about for several days and final
ly landed at New Boston, formerly a
thriving camp, but now extinct.
He, conducted expedition after expe-
dition in search of the deposit, but his
efforts were fruitless. He described
the location. stating that two petrified
trees stood near the mound.
The stone trees are to be noticed
today as described by the old pros
pector, who dies 10 years ago.

The early blight of potatoes ap-
pears In Wisconsin between August
10 and September rs. and does con-
siderable damage to fields not sprayed
to control the disease. The excellent
results secured by spraying by the
horticultural department of the Col
lege of Agriculture of the University
of Wisconsin show the advantages of
such treatment
This department advises that grow
ers spray at once after August 10. and
not wait until the blight appears. If
the grower is then careful to note
the condition OF his vines and the de-
velopmont of the true early blight
disease, he can govern the subse-
quent application of the mixture ao-
cording to the weather and the ap-
pearance of the field. Usually at
least three applications will be neces-
sary to get the best results, and in
some seasons four applications are ad-
visable.
The amount of spray mixture ap-
piled per acre will depend upon the
size of the vines. Early in the sea-
son 100 gallons of the mixture may be
needed to cover from one to three

MANAGEMENT OF
THE CLAY SOILS
Unless Conditions Are Very Fa-
yorable Fertility Remains Quite
Unavailable.
cBy w. MILTON KELLY)


The average clay soil possesses an
abundant supply of natural fertility.
but unless conditions are very favor
able this fertility remains in an I'M
available condition.
In the management Of clay soils the
practical point that we need to keep
in mind is the fact that we must mod
ify conditions SO that this locked up
fertility may become available for
the growing crops.
These stored up elements In the soil
are to be regarded as SO much poten-
tial energy, which by our methods of
cultivation and soil management. may
be converted into active energy.
We must Therefore seek to adopt
such methods as will conserve and
preserve this stored-up energy. or fer
tility, except such as is necessary to
produce crops from year to year.
Clay soils must be properly drained
before they can be brought under a
profitable system of cultivation. With
our attempting to name all of the ad-
vantages of thorough drainage on clay
4. soils; by taking away the water from
under the surface and giving the air
arate the soil particles permits a bet
ter growth of roots.
Drainage also prevents the washing
4 of the surface. and assists in con-
serving available fertility. Its infiu-
ence on the temperature of the soil.
especially in the spring, Is of particu-
lar importance, as it lengthens the
growing season, and makes it posi-
BILE for us to begin work earlier in
the spring, and to perform the work
in a more thorough manner during
the whole of the growing season. 1t
is impossible to cultivate a soil satu-
rated with water.
In addition to these direct benefits
there are a number of indirect ways
in which the soil is improved by drain
age. such as the influence of higher
temperature of the bacterial and
chemical changes going on in the
soils.
There are bacterial processes that
play an important part in this
branch of natural economy, and we
must SO shape our methods of cultiva-
ton and management as to get the
most benefit from these processes.
These clay soils, which are the most
benefited by thorough system of tile
drainage, are the most fertile soils in
the country, and they will therefore
warrant the largest expenditure in Inn
proyement and development.
While not every farmer is able to
nut in a complete system of tile drain
age the first year, he can SO plan his
work that what he is able to do from
time to time will fit into and form
part of a permanent system and not
he a haphazard, disconnected work.

Just Wanted to BE SURE.

For four entire hours had the lady
remained in the shop. She had wis.,
tied every department and worried
the majority of the statesmen without
spending penny.
Toward the close of the afternoon
one of the statesmen, feeling somewhat
exasperated, ventured to make a mild
protest.
Madam" he asked sweetly. "are
you shopping here?"
The lady looked surprised. but not
by any means annoyed.
Certainly" she replied. But what
else should be doing?"
For moment the salesman hest
tated, then blurted out:
well. madam. l thought perhaps
you might be taking an inventory"
Then the lady melted away among
the shadows by the door.

acres. At the last spraying. when
double nozzles should be used, 100
gallons will cover from one to one
and one-half acres. and possibly two
acres in some cases. The mixtures
can be economical greatly by avoid
ing any leakage in the MOBILES and
running the mixture through as fine
a cap as possible and still cover the
foliage.
Spraying is generally better
adapted to the standard late varie-
ties. Substantial increases in yields
have been obtained from spraying
early varieties which were planted
late. Success from spraying early
varieties. which were planted late. is
exceptional in this state.
Failures In spraying for blight are
often the result of one or more of
the following causes: Impoverished
soil. weakened potato seed. injury
from the potato beetle. carelessness
and inattention to essential details.
The first three causes are espe-
cially noticed during the dry season.
The more favorable the tillage ,condi-
lions. the larger the returns which
may be expected from spraying.

sites approximately 10000 acres were
withdrawn and about the same acrs-
age restored.
In Montana 100000 acres we're re-
stored as being non-coal bearing and
about 1000 acres as not valuable for
water power sites. while about $50
acres were withdrawn for that pur-
pose.
In North Dakota nearly 100000
acres in coal withdrawal were CLASH.

In Oregon approximately $4,000
acres were restored as non-oil bearing
lands and about 10000 acres were
withdrawn for water power or reser-
voir sites.
In Utah about 1900 acres were with.
drawn for water power sites.
In Wyoming over $4,000 acres OF
coal Withdrawals were reopened to en-
try and purchase; approximately ST.
900 acres were withdrawn for classi-
fication as to whether they are oil

The total outstanding Withdrawals
on July / in all the public land states
amounted to 6S.609.2S9 acres. of which
more than 5s.0o0,O0O acres are in coal
