MEN
GETTING READY To WORK

A party of Salt Lakers, officers of
the Phoebe Bristol Mining Co, arriv-
ed in town Thursday morning and af-
ter spending the day looking over
day for the above named company's
property near Bristol
Among the visitors were Joseph ].
Daynes, J. NJ. Wheeler. E. f. Jenk-
ms and G. S. Martin, the latter be-
ing one of the principal stockholders
in the Salt Lake Phoebe Mining COM
pan, which corporation owns a very
attractive property near the Boston,
Phoebe mine.
Speaking of the Pioche Bristol, Mr.
Daynes stated that work is to be
started at once and that the company
contemplates entering upon very
vigorous development campaign.
The work is to be under the direc-
tion of Harry l.. Parker. former sup
erintendent of the Yuba Leasing &
Development company.
Salt Lake mining men are waking
up to the fact that few mining reg
ions in the west offer better induce
ments for mining investment than
Phoebe does today. They are being
brought to realize that the enormous
mineral belt here has scarcely been
scratched" and that with the modern
methods of mining and milling avail
able for the successful treatment of
low grade ores this country presents
practically virgin field for the min
ing investor.

Nampa, Oct. 2S.-That the state
farm in proximity to this city is des-
tined to prove highly profitable in
vestment is the consensus Of public
opinion in this city after a studied OBJ
servation of its varied demonstrations
this year along the lines of diversi-
fled agriculture and the correlation Of
stock raising and dairying with the
agricultural operations of the farm.
These demonstrations which have
been made in separated fields and
plots of land, seeded and cultivated
in a manner highly scientific and SIM
liar to the practices of government ag-
ricultural experimental stations re-
veal the fertility of the soil and the
great possibilities for profitable crop
returns If the same scientific methods
OF diversification and cultivation en-
ployed this year are continued.

or at the rate of 60 bushels to the
aero.
VEGETABLES GROWN.
Tomatoes, cabbage, beans, peas and
other vegetables were grown in large
quantities as were all kinds of berries
The revenues of the farm the past
season are as follows: One Thousand
bushels of barley at 10 cents a bushel,
800; 26b bushels of wheat, at $3.50
per bushel. 1913; 80 bushels of corn, at
30 cents bushel, s27; 40 bushels OF

With an adequate conception Of the

has arranged the farm into crop dfvis-
ions so as to show the advantages of
diversified farming, correlated with
the livestock industry.
To illustrate. 30 acres hos been
seeded to alfalfa. 10 acres to red clover.
five acres to hog pasture and suf-
ficient area to blue grass and white
clover to support 20 dairy cows. Ten
acres has been set to an orchard and
two acres to berries. The remainder
of the farm area consists of the sites
of the building, barns and groves.

derful amount of feed for the 30 head
of hogs on the firm which are yet to
market. With his varied Agricultural
products, his abundant supply of
dairy products and an ample supply
of meat annually ror the inmates of
the home, Superintendent Wilson is
impressed that the supplies for the in

The correlation of agriculture and
the livestock industry on this farm
has been proven SO profitable as to

it is believed that the farm will be-

further appropriation OF $4,000 was
made by the Legislature for the con-
struction of buildings, and this proved
an inadequate sum for this purpose.
In 1915 incorporation of $4,000 was
made for the maintenance of the farm
1t is estimated that 1t will require

NEED OF INSTITUTION.
In 1915 there were los children of
school age who were of the class for
which this home is intended and as
there is an increase of this number as
time progresses, II is held that the
State should make preparation to care
for the situation. The site Of the build

velopment by the State with the full
