LITTLE STORIES FOR BEpTIll|
BY THORNTON W. eURoEss.
tCopyrigAt. IvIo. by ,. q. r.IDya.D

Reddy and Granny Fox knew by
this time that Bob White had fooled
them about his home. and that 1t
was no longer OF the least use to
hunt for 1t, for by this time the fam
lily would have left II. So instead
OF hunting for Bobs home they
hunted for the family Old Granny
Fox Is very wise In the ways OF
those about her. Reddy thinks he
is just as wise and perhaps a little
wiser than she Is, but he isn't. II
Is the way with the young to think
that they know more than their eld-
ers. So Reddy didn't half heed
what Granny told him about looking
for the Bob White family. II Is just
as well for the little Bob Whites
that heSdidn't. II 1t had been Gran
ny who found them It might have
been different story.
But IL wasn't Granny. and I for
one am glad that It wasn't II. was
Reddy, and he found them just
when he least expected to. II was
this way: He had been hunting
most OF the night In the Green For
est and the Old Pasture. He had
almost but not quite caught Old Jed
Thumper, the father Of little Mrs
Peter Rabbit. who. you know, was
Miss Fuzzytail. Not catching Old
Jed Thumper when he had come 50
near 1t had put Reddy in a very
bad temper. Yes, sir, 1t certainly
had. Now, a bad temper is q bad
thing at any time. but especially
when you are hunting. You know
a good hunter must Ak his atten
ton wholly on his hunting. But q
bad temper demands attention. I'm
less II is given attention, great
deal of attention. 1t dies. No one
can think of other things and keer
In a bad temper.
So just after jolly round bright
Mr.. Sun began his daily climb up In
the blue, blue sky Reddy Fox came
trotting across the Green Meadows
muttering angrily to himself. He
was quite sure that no one else ever
had such bad luck as he did. He
was hungry and tired. and he blam
ed both OF these things to luck
quite forgetting that luck really lie
nothing less than the result Of what
we DO or don't do ourselves. Now
only the day before he had hunted
all over that particular part Of the
Green Meadows without finding so
much as a trace of the Bob Whites.
so he was quite sure In his own mind

Mining operations continue very active in the TOm-Reed-Gold Road district at Oatman.
 That there is a boom due in the oil industry in the vicinity of Benson within short time is evidenced by a large number of placer claim filings with County Recorder Owen E. Mur, phy.
 Prosecuting is proceeding rapidly at the Old Champion mine, four miles west of McMillan. which has been taken under three years lease and option by Col. James A. Fleming and associates.
 High prices for copper prevailing at the present time resulted in good news for employees of the Old Domin- ion Copper Company at Globe, when General Manager P. G. Beckett posted a notice of a new increase in wages. Under the new scale miner who at l5-cent copper receives s3.15 a day will. with copper at l6 cents, get sS.90; at r. cents get si.00J at IS cents get si.l5; al l9 cents get s4.25, and all others in the same proportion.

Auto Lawn unsatisfactcry,

Although it is yet too early 10 ap- praise the situation in various states. there is reason to believe that several questions of moment wilf arise with which every one interested in automo- bile development should be thorough ly familiar. Most existing automobile laws are proving more or less unsat. isfactory in one or both of two ways: The method of assessing and collect ing taxes and the method of handling funds derived from the administration of such measures as are in force. There is also the never-faiiins demand from parties in office for increased in- come to care for the ever-growing de mands upon the exchequer. As the trends of legislative matters are ob- served from year to year, however, one thing becomes constantly more clear. that more intelligence and bet ter grasp are shown in proposed laws each year than the year before.

SUMMER FALL0W IS FAVORED
Farmer Who Tried to Get Around This Failed to Get Much of Crop
 Some Exceptions.

The Indian Head station. though by no means in the dryest part of Can. ada, has for years led in advocating summer following liberally ito aceu mulate two years moisture for one years crop" Early rightly-tilled sum- mer fallow at this station, showed as high as 35 bushels of wheat to the acre. while right alongside it yielded less than ten on land cropped the year before, says a writer in Dakota Farm CT. Still more striking differences were made at some of the substations. and the one great gospel we heard from Indian Head and from there all over western Canada. was dry farm ing by summer following one-third to one-half the land under cultivation. As a rule the man who tried to get around this failed to get much of crop. To be sure there were excep tons to this certain seasons, and in certain slightly more moist sections. but they were exceptions, one year with another, in these parts even.
 This same way of handling soils in our own semiarid parts is being prac- uced and advocated by many, al though our scientists tell us that thus unnaturally exposing the dark surface Of the soil to the heat of summer suns and winds is ruin 10 it in the long run, and that this unnatural way of accu. mulating moisture. getting rid of weeds and resting" the soil, should not be encouraged where there is a possible way around it. This we firmly believe.
 Right here many come in and ad vocate corn-either for grain or fod. der-rape. when there Is moisture enough 10 start 1t. etc. etc. but a whole lot of people. among them some of our experiment station men. say corn, for instance. takes an enormous amount of moisture from the land as much as almost any grain crop and ask how in common sense We can conserve two years moisture for one years crop by any such subter fuge- Some Of those in charge of the work in South Dakota tell us that while the moisture goes out of the soil little slower with the corn-as it takes a longer time to grow and ma. ture-that when it is matured we will find the moisture has been taken.
 This locks reasonable, sure enough; but our experience and observation go 10 show it isn't so. That the forest condition. shaded soil. cool air circu- lating at night and other times. in some way retain or actually accumu- late moisture, and that the rightly handled cornfeld will actually show as much. sometimes slightly more moisture in the soil, than bare sum mer fallow right alongside of it Just as there is more moisture in deep forests under the leaves. no matter how much moisture the heavy foliage has taken to grow. than in the bare treeless field near by.

PLENTY OF FINE TOMATOES
Best results Obtained by Use of Hard
 Wood Ashes as FertiIizer-keep Of Black Flies.

According to a writer in the Gar den Magazine plenty of fine tomatoes can be had without any thouble if hardwood ashes are used as a fer tilizer. and are also sifted on the leaves to keep of the little black flies.
 Do not set the plants in the open ground until all danger of frost is past Dig large holes a foot deep. place a pint of ashes in each hole. and cover them with at least two inches of dirt. on which set the plants. The best time to do this Is at twilight or on a cloudy day.
 Protect each newly set plant with a paper bag tthe bottom having been cut out of sufficient size to slip around the plant easily. Three or four stakes driven into the ground hold these in place

DRY FARM POTATO GROWING
Cheaper to Purchase Tubers at Store Than Raise Them.

tBy C. L.. FITCH. Colorado Experimen,
 StationD
 Experience has proved thatthe dry. lander should plant both early and late varieties of potatoes, to catch the season at one end or the other Early Ohios have been most used for early planting but above the ditch are apt to be rusty feshed. from soil heat in a dry summer. Irish Cobblers are bet ter in this respect. and yield more in a good year. Pearls are largely plant ed for late variety.
 It is a good plan on dry land to mark the field both ways and to plant the potatoes at the cross mark. then cultivate them both ways, so as to reduce hand work It is risky to plant on ground in dry year with a dried out subsoil, but with a good spring and subsoil in good condition. wide spacing makes potatoes fairly sure, where leaf roll has not appeared.
 There are many excellent dry-land regions for potato growing in the table lands of the Northwest. New settlers in the plains should be cautious. as potatoes have been a complete failure in most places in that region.
 Dry lands notably the Arkansas d. vide. have suffered severely from pota- to leaf roll. and new settlers should make careful inquiry regarding their neighbors' experiences before giving much land or work to potatoes.
 Nearly every newcomer seems to have to learn for himself that we have conditions and localities where 1t Is cheaper 10 purchase potatoes at the store than to try to raise fhem
