PLANT SCME FETERITA
Well Adapted to Sections of Light
Rainfall.
One Of the Worst Faults Of Crop ls

Growers Must Exercise Great
Care In Selecting Seed.
By II. NJ. corTRELL)

tby III. M. COTTRELI4)
Feterita was given a thorough trial
In 1914 in large fields from Kansas
City to El Paso and the Gulf. The re-
suits confirmed our recommendation
made year ago that it is a grain sor-
ghum well adapted to sections of light
rainfall-ten to sixteen inches a year.
and that 1t has but little place where
the rainfall and soil will produce a
lair yield of corn. In New Mexico
feterita yielded Is bushels OF grain
with only two and a half inches OF
rainfall during the growing season.
The growers in Northwest Kansas
We're particularly well pleased with
the yields secured in 1915. Feterita
yielded well in the Panhandle, in
eastern New Mexico, and in the drier
sections Of Oklahoma and Texas. How.
ever, most of the growers in the Pan.
handle found dwarf milo a more salts
factory crop.
In eastern Kansas and eastern Ok.
lahoma feterita was generally unsatis
factory and will probably not be plant.
ed much in 1915 except In small
patches for early feed and as a catch
crop after winter wheat A 40-acre
field of feterita In Usage county, Kan
sas, examined early in September
showed the effects o. this crop for dis
tricts having good rainfall. There were
nve sets of heads on most OF the
plants. The grain on the center head
was ripe and beginning to shatter the
grain on the older side shoots was In
the dough, that on the other side
shoots was just well formed, the fourth
set of heads were in bloom and the
fifth were just pushing their way Out
OF the boot. If the farmer let the
center heads stand until the grain on
the next older heads was ripe, they
would lose most of their grain by
shattering He couli have gone over
the field five times, gathering each
set of heads as soon as ripe. but this
seemed impracticable in large fields
One of the worst faults of feterits
is its shattering as soon as ripe
Where there Is no rain after ripen
ing the seed stays on the head fairly
well. Should a good ain come afteI
the seed becomes ripe and warm. dry
windy weather follows, half the seed
will be on the ground in a short time
The growers of feterita must take
special care to select for seed heads
showing the pure-bred type or in few
years this grain sorghum will be lost
Feterita apparently crosses readily
with all other kinds of grain sor
ghum, with the sweet sorghums
broom corn and Sudan grass. AL
though the crop has been grown gen
orally in large fields over wide area
it already shows the degenerating eff
fects of this crossing more than kafil
and milo after 25 years OF genera
planting.
We recommend the planting OF Q
small patch of feterita for early hos
and horse feed on most farms in the
Southwest. as a catch crop after wheat
where such crop is desirable and as
the chief feed grain in districts hav
ing less than sixteen inches annual
rainfall.

SWINGS AROUND DOES MINING
 BOOM
(From Tuesdays Daily)

NI1 Olll uCSudy Dd1lS
 s. 5. Christopher, mining engineer as well as an operator near Cripple
 Creek, Colo, and in British Columbia, is in this field, on an examination trip, and after ten days observation made the following statement:
 The Oatman excitement is but a reflection of the cycle of mining on the return trip. Every decade there is a pronounced active movement in this industry, and the doings of the day in Monave are nothing more or less than what is transpiring every where west of the Rockies, only the Arizona situation is somewhat en- larged over other localities.
 Colorado, for instance, is facing a complete mineral regeneration, owing to the successful application of oil Notation. Arizona also is on the eve of experiencing the same prosperity, and particularly so in the Bradshaw country, where complex ore abounds. Tungsten and associated minerals have an army in the field searching for them, and the best part of the future is that large manufacturing has absolutely established an inex- haustible demand for them. What the duration of the present mining boom will be is problematical, but the best authorities anticipate no relaxation inside of five years. Some large East ern firms have orders ahead to run for eighteen months, in metallic con struction, and to my knowledge there are at the present time four agents in various fields hunting for minerals de- sired. Copper is the pacemaker in this mineral race, and the 1915 pro- duction will reach an astounding fig ure. Next year it will be heavier, and the 1916 record will be without par allel in the history of the nation"
 Mir. Christopher also believes that silver faces new life, and jump up ward may be expected to take place at any time.

copper Smelling practice is well illus

 of the Arizona Copper Go. at Clifton.
 In 1878 the first smeiter of the dis

 the Longfellow mine. which is still a
 working portion of the properties oi
 the Arizona Copper Go. The smelt,
 ing apparatus was a little adobe fur
 mace fed with locally burned charcoal
 In 1880 this little Mexican furnace was equipped with water jackets, considered great improvement in those days.
 In 1882 the rights of the Longfellow Mining Co. were purchased by the Arizona Copper Co.,, Ltd, Scotch corporation, which immediately began improvements to increase the capa- city. For over 30 years the smeltct then erected did business and regul- arly turned out the copper, although as improvements were made in the smelling practice, changes were made, and the plant was practically rebuilt three different times.
 The new plant, which was blown in last year, embodies the very last word in smelling practice, and is ono of the show smelters of the country. does everything that is pos sible to be done in that way and ma terials are almost handled automati- cally. The two plants side by side may be compared to Fulton's first steamboat and one of our great ocean liners. The old smclter continued to oper i ate for some time, however, until the new plant was all blown Tn and sue cessfully handling all the products | of the mines; then, fitting ceremonies to the old plant, which had turned | put so many millions of pounds Of | copper, it was allowed to stop and | grow cold, sad memory to the old | timers of the Clifton district.
 The new plant is rehandling even inc dirt of the district which contains arge quantities of copper, in some parts as high as 30 per cent.
