Something New
MI RuTTEs AcTIVE.

TUSCON, Ariz., Dec. 25.-With the
bonding of several claims in the Twin
Buttes district, further development
work is to be commenced i'm the yicin-
ity OF the Bush and Baxter claims.
The claims just taken over are those
Of Dalghren, Pike and Hudson, and
will be worked by Keith Knoght II b.
Aros and A. L. Arcs, who have bond
ed them for $4,000 The properties
lie just west OF the Bush and Baxter
claims, which were bonded little
over a year ago in an investment OF
$3.50 and later sold to the Guggenheiu
interests for S45O,OOO. The Rossi-Tre
PAM claims, also in the same vicinity
have been bonded for 100000 to SaI
Francisco capitalists.

grain expert who has been watch.
ing the grain markets and the worlds
grain fields for number of years,
says
There is at the present time about
two billion bushels of wheat, the pro-
duction of the countries at war, tied
up. This is about one,half the worlds
total production of wheat, which is
four billion bushels. One writer ar
CUES that, granting that the warning
nations produce a One-half crop in
the coming year, a deficit of one bill
lion bushels will still be shown. The
three countries upon which the filing
of this deficit Of one billion bushels
VIII rest are the United States, Can
ada, and Argentina. The combined
output of these three countries is only
1,249,000 900, their eXportable surplus
would of course be much less, so it
can easily be seen that the question
is not one to be easily solved and it
behooves all the above countries to
increase their respective productions
as much as they possibly can, for
when the war is over and trade begins
to reestablish itself and the nations
undergo a process of rehabilitation,
the demand for all breadstuffs will be
enormous.
During the three years following

Of all neutral wheat.producing coun.
tries will have ample opportunity to
market their wheat at good prices,
and 1t may safely be assumed that the
demand will be heavy Canada has
an unusual opportunity In that she
has the natural environment for wheat
production: she Is under the protec
ton of the British flag, and she will
not be molested upon the water to
any great extent; she can increase
her acreage and greatly enhance her
production. In other words, she can
become far greater wheat-producing
country than she Is at the present
time"
If the summing.up as made by this ex-
pert be correct, is there not the very
best reason for the continued effort
that Is being made by the Government
of the Dominion OF Canada to secure
settlers on the productive vacant
lands OF the country Not only are
these lands capable Of producing high
class wheat In large quantities, but
cattle, pigs. sheep and horses also do
well. The climate is admirably suited.

pie product. It's relatively lmperish-
able nature also adapts it to long dis
lance shipment, rough handling, and
keeping for a considerable time even
under unfavoraDle conditions. 1t is
thus an important article Of food in
mining, construction and lumber
camps, and other places remote from
sources of food supply 1t is also used
extensively on the tables OF all classes
Of people, and its use is rapidly in
creasing. The former aversion to
onions on account TO their offensive
odor is being overcome as the knowl-
edge of their healthfulness and palat-
ability increases. Whether raw or
cooked, alone or in combination,
onions are appetizing and healthful.
Onions grow best in relatively cool
weather and require an abundance Of
moisture during their early stages Of
growth. However, they will stand con
siderable heat after they have made a
good start, and ripen better if the
weather is relatively dry at the time
they mature. This makes them an i'm
portant crop in central and northern
ATTITUDES, where the weather of spring
is cool and moist, and a dry period
normally occurs in August or in early
September. However, the season must
be sufficiently long for the onions to
mature before the autumn rains set in,
or they are likely never to ripe prop
erly. Unless properly ripened, onions
will not keep. For northern localities
1t is sometimes necessary to use only
the earlier maturing varieties.
The above statements refer to the
growing of ripe onions. Green onions
reach edible size in a comparatively
short time, and can be grown during
the normally cool and moist weather
of early spring in central and northern
ATTITUDES. AS a commercial crop, they
are of minor importance compared
with ripe onions.

carbohydrates to make well-balanced
ration for the young growing insects.
The honey, which contains the sac
charm or carbohydrates, is stored in
large quantities, but the pollen, which
contains the protein material, is not
stored in any appreciable quantity it
Is practically gathered from day to
lay. Nature thus compels the bees to
use every opportunity to gather pollen
for the maintenance of the colony
for self-preservation, and thereby in.
ducing them to pollinate the blossoms,
which would otherwise be unproduc-
tive.
Doctor Fletcher, in a paper read be-
fore the Ontario Association of Bee
keepers, said: TT can be shown that,
owing to it's size, weight and habits,
no insect is so we'll calculated to in
sure the fertilization Of fruit bios
SONS as the honey bee, which flies
rapidly from plant to plant, and. by
running over the flowers in search Of
pollen or nectar, brushes off the pollen
and carries this vitalizing element
on the hairs of its body to the next
flower visited. 1t will be found that
not only are flowers absolutely neces-
sary to bees, as the source of their
food-nectar and pollen-but that bees
and other insects are no less neces-
sary to most flowers, so that their
perpetuation may be secured.
This fact should be recognized by
the fruit-grower above all others; for
were 1t not for insects, and particular
~ for the honey bee, his crop Of fruits
would be far less than it is every
rear, and even In some cases he would
get no fruit at all.
Failure in the fruit crop Is more
often due, | think, to dull or damp
weather at the time of blossoming,
which prevents insects from working
actively in the flowers, than to any
other cause"
Doctor Phillips says: while the
honey bee is, perhaps, not bettev
equipped than other insects, especial
ly other bees, for carrying pollen,
there is one respect in which it out
ranks all others as valuable asset
to the fruit grower We are not able
to propagate other insects In quaint

(By DIR. ]. S. WARD, Tennessee)
Outside Of the beekeeping world the
great majority Of people think that
the only benefit humanity receives
from bees is the production of honey
and wax. 1t is not generally known
or even understood that bees were
created not so much for the purpose
of gathering the delicious sweet for
mankind, as for carrying the pollen
grains from one flower to another, so
that these may bear fruit and seed.
The real economical value of the bees
is to be found In the work of fertil-
izing and cross-fertilizing seed and
fruit-bearing plants so valuable to
man; the honey and wax is secondary
The pollination or fertilization of
first. by the wind; second, by insects.
Plants whose flowers are small and
inconspicuous, as the willows, pines
oaks and birches, have very light and
dry pollen, which in favorable
weather may be blown about and pol
Innate many flowers, but often The
wind is ineffective on account of the
pollens being sticky by reason of
moisture in the air in the form Of
rain, heavy dew or fog. Most of the
flowers, however, are not of the wind
bearing type and require some other
agents than the wind to carry the
pollen, and these agents are the in
sects. Insects go from flower to
flower gathering pollen or nectar for
food, and in crawling over the sta
mems and pistils they get their little
bodies covered with the pollen grains
and easily, effectively transfer them to
the stigmas Of other blossoms, result
ing also in the cross-fertilization that
nature demands. Observation and ex-
periments teach that without insects
there is but little pollination and with
out pollination the blossoms with their
pistils wither and die without fruitage.
Investigations made in Germany
show that out of 6.231 visits of in
sects to flowers, 3,4S1 were made by
honey bees.
The bees need protein as well as
