 Emsweiler, who is well known here, and has acted as guide for a party Of British officers and ia nous sportsmen while hunting in the Kenai peninsula, declares that his license was refused because he demanded that the game laws be enforced. He says that Baughman' who was appointed game warden by Governor strong, is employed In a drug store and does not attend to his official duties.

There is some discussion iu S'A Diego concerning the adyisabtIity of maintaining the exposition for another year. The suggestion was but recently made, and as yet has net been cauyasseI to that point where an outsider can judge how strong 8 hold tho ide2 will take upon the people who do things in that city. So far as the discussion has goua the suggestion seems to be held in favor.
 Not long ago the salt Lake peo- p,s tried to organize something like round robin, to be addressed to the san Francisco exposition folk, and with something of 8 similar in- tent to that expressed at sao Diego. Nothing has been heard of that effort, end probably nothing will result from it; but the argu- meuts advanced apply rather more perupeurly to saa Diego than to Sau Francisco.
 The San Diego exposition hts been pronounced a sem, unique in its own beauty and design and con- taiuiug more gs the quality Of per mausace than the greater and more costly enterprise in San Francisco.
 The question of the expense of continuance at san Diego is one, without doubt, more nearly of prac- HcaI consideration than it would be iu the Northern city. The fact that the Northern enterprise oyershad- owed the other. and the further fact that for that reason san Diego did not get it's just deserts as the lAlJ."- tor of the Panama exposition idea something more than moral suppor on this coast, might result in something more than moral suPpo' from the rest of the country if the syDostucr were continued.
 Everyone who has visited san Diego is free to say that that city is In itself a show place; and resi- dents of the Pacific Coast should be unanimous in the opinion that it would serve exce,Iently as a con- tiuued exhibit center for the entire coast. These at least are the con sideraucns suggested as in favor of the continuance of San DiegO's eN- celleut exposition.

Taxes More Than Double.

While in conversation with Mr..
Luther Brunson Monday he spoke
of the steady advance in the state
and county taxes. Some time ago
among some old papers he came
across a tax receipt which was is,
sued to his late father, the Rev. D.
II. Brunson, in 1870. At that time
he paid tax on $40 acres of land,
the amount being. $27.75. MIR. Lu.
ther Brunson now owns 239 acres
Of the same tract and he pays
s27.35 cents in taxes. This amount
also includes his tax on personal
property. Judging from the increase
in the levy this year, the worst is
yet to come. Those of us who are
living in 1880 had better deed our
land to the state and rent it each
year, letting the state pay its own
taxes.

Never Burns Anything That Can
Be Turss.sG Under.

Seven ye3rs ago the 90 acres i'm
mediately arc and car home was in
about as i,sd condition as possible.
1t was full of washes and gullies,
and the best portions would not
make over 10 bushels of corn to the
acre. A portion was considered so
hopeless that it had been given
over to pasturage. This was a
benefit, inasmuch as the turf Of
wild grasses partly checked erosion.
All our land was So poor that we
began to build up these 20 acres
first.
Our method has been simple. We
began by filling washes with refuse
scattered abort the farm-corn
stalks, cobs, leaves from the wood
lots, etc. Our idea vas to utilize
materials on hand so as to prevent
waste, and to do the work in spare
time. Horse and COW stalls were
heavily bedded with coarse straw,
leaves, or uneaten hay, and the ma
nure was taken out often. 1t was
always carried at once to some part
of the 90 acres. We made an effort
to dress the worst parts of the field
first, leaving the manure spread ont
on level portions. bot turning it un-
der as soon as we could get to it
when it was applied to slopes. Of
course, this manure spreading was in
additionsto what we grew on the
tract
Our main dependence was upon
rye and cowpeas. Fortunately they
will make some growth on poor
land. We grazed the rye and turned
it under in spring, then later plant,
ed peas. We only plowed the peas
under in the worst spots because we
needed the hay. But got most of it
back in manure. Running COWS
and hogs on the rye added to the
