LIM0USINES MADE OF PASTE
Composition Used by French Builders Is Declared to Be Complete
 Success.

A firm Of French builders recently has perfected a method of using what is styled wood cement for making mo- tor car bodies. apparently with con siderable success. In using the mate rials the exact composition of which is kept secret, the body is built of a light framework, over which is stretched wire netting. The wood paste is then literally plastered on with a trowel
 It dries quite hard in 24 hours. after which it can be planed like wood. and Is capable of taking on a very high finish. The weight of the finished body is approximately the same as the weight of an ordinary wooden one.
 One valuable feature of the con struction is that repairs are very cas- lily made. In case of breaks caused by collision. etc, it is necessary mere ly to plaster up the hole and ref1nish the body. The material does not chip nor disintegrate. is impervious to wa ter. heat or cold, and Is quite incom- bustible.

Cripple Creek Output Nears s2,ooo 900.

Cripple Greek, Colo.-The output of the mines of the Cripple Creek dis trict for the month of March is the highest in many years, and it is prob able that the valuation has never been exceeded at any time. The fig ures as reported out by the mine and mill managers and shelter representa- tiyes total 71,GlS tons, with the gross bullion value of sl,9SG, ,i93.96.
 The Golden Cycle mill handling the rich ore from the Cresson mine for the first time since construction, re- ports the treatment of ore in excess of s1,300,00O in value. The mill is now treating the high-grade ore from the Cresson mine.
 The Golden Cycle on March S, fol. lowing the sale Of its estate to the Vindicator Consolidated Gold Mining Company, paid a dividend at the rate of g per share, a total of 0o0.000. The company had paid two dividends previously this year, s150,000 on Jan. l and s75,000 on Feb. !, a total of s. 25,000 for this year, to date.

KEEPS BOY 0N FARM
Credit Should Be Given 10 the Automobile for Big Ac-
 compIishment.
WORTH THE MONEY INVESTED
Lure of City Life No Longer So Pow eruI as 1t Has Been for Reasons Which Are Obvious-Car
 Gives the Chance fer
 Recreation.

The old question of how to keep the boy OF the farm has been an swered by the motor car. The auto mobile is keeping more youngsters at work on the old homestead today than any promise of city wealth could ever do. The wild scramble on the part of farm-bred boys and girls to get work in the cities is fast becoming thing of the past. The motor car has brought the cities to them.
 In the past. expert investigators have declared that one reason for the high cost of living is the scarcity of farm help. They have pointed out the fact that the farmers son, as soon as he is able to strike out for himself, goes to the city, attracted not so much by the better wages offered there as by the opportunity for enjoyment. The bright lights, the theaters and crowds all hold for him the same fascination they have for the young man who has always lived in the city. The latter would not entertain the idea of going to work in the rural districts.
 With both ends thus working against the farm, it is small wonder that the price of produce steadily crept higher and higher. Agricultur ists found that they must boost the price of their product in order to pay for planting, tending and marketing those products. But the coming of the automobile has changed these condi- tions.
 At an investment of one or two thousand dollars the average farmer who has growing children can assure himself of their cooperation on the farm. When he buys a car the call of the city is TO longer alluring. His sons and daughters have the oppor- tunity for recreation they have al- ways sought They are practically as independent as the youngsters whose parents live in the suburbs. ss far and as fast as they want to travel. In the evening they can run to the city and attend a theater. a concert, or any other amusement they desire, and get back home again as soon as the suburban Jweller.
 Heretofore, these trips to the city were denied. The driving horse, no matter how high bred or capable, be- ing limited to a comparatively slow speed, the farmer boy who lived ten miles from the city found it impos- sible to make the round trip in less than three or four hours. Not only did his trip cut into the working day. but it curtailed his sleep as well.
 The motor car has annihilated dis tance. A ten-mile run in a car re- quires only a few minutes, especially since improved highways have been provided in nearly every community. With car the full days work can be completed and the trip 10 the city and back again with . visit to the theater between drives can be easily accomplished.
 AS a result the young man is more content to remain on the farm than ever before. He has every advantage offered to the city workers with the added incentive of being a great part of the time in the healthful open air. His recreation is provided and the city to which he has always looked with longing eyes has been brought to bis door.

To Get Best Results.

Soil, a mixture of earth, water and air. Too much of either is bad and too little means an entire or partial crop failure. Like any other com. pound. it must be mixed properly to secure the best results. Deep tillage to conserve the moisture and frequent cultivations to stop evaporation and introduce the air together with proper fertilizing, will get the results.

ALFALFA FOR FORAGE CROP
Every Farmer in semiarid District Should Grow Some of It-Good
 Stand is Difficult.

Alfalfa is pre-eminently the great forage crop for the semiarid regions. Every farmer should grow some al falfa as soon as he can get his land in shape for it. It is difficult, however, to get stand of alfalfa on new break. ing and a full crop is not produced until the second or third year after seeding. so 1t is necessary for the farmer to grow some other crops as forage until he can have the alfalfa.
