Mohave County miner., 1915-01-23

Thursday last the State Engineer of California was expected at Needles to make an examination for the purposed bridge over the Colorado river at To- pock. The engineer of San Bernardino county was over the ground last week and found bedrock so close to the waters edge that he felt that abut- ments could be built there to carry the necessary towers with a minimum of expense. It is proposed that the state of California bear the sum of 25,OOO$, making up the total of 75,000$, which was thought to be necessary to com plete the work, and that in the event that bids should overrun that amount San Rernardino county agrees to stand the balance. This agreement is neces- sary because of the fact that the legis- lators of that state are of the opinion that the bridge cannot be built for 75,- OOO$ and they do not want the state stuck for further sum to complete the structure. Within the next thirty days action will be taken by California legislators in the matter and if the bill fails to go through San Bernardino county will appropriate the sum neces- sary to build the bridge.

Never give child cough medicine that contains opium in any form. When opium is given other and more serious diseases may follow.

CANDY FROM THE FIELDS

One of the latest promises from
modern discoveries is that candy
of the future may be grown in the
fields. Alfalfa is the medium. A
man who owns food mills in Idaho
and Montana announces that he can
make at lesat se,enty-five differ
ent kinds of candy from alfalfa.
There is also mill in California
that makes meal frcm alfalfa which
is fer the raw, material of the CANDY
maker. Rich grade of syrup NAL al
SO be made from alfalfa. The dis,
coverer is so enthusiastic over the
results of his alfalfa research that
he is planning for the manufacture
of alfalfa flour, which he asserts
will be superior to other flours for
baking. This mil Will probably be
ready in six months. He has a
mill in Idaho tn Z has been making
a balanced food for live stock out
of alfalfa. Ii the candy experiment
turns out to be reality, there may
be expected large increase in the
acreage of the planting.

RUN DISC OVER CLOVER
BEFORE TURNING UNDER

Never turn clover or other crops
under without first thoroughly cut
ting up with disc harrow, as the
material plowed under in layer Sc
riously interferes with the capillary
action of the moisture in the soil.
The effects of turning under in a
layer are what is sometimes called
souring the soil with green manur-
ling crops. Double disk the cover
crop two or three times with a
sharp disk harrow before plowing;
plow we'll by taking narrow furrow
and edging rather than inverting
the furrow; double disk the land
again rather deeply. No injurious
effect will result however large the
growth may be.
