EUROPEAN WAR LOSSES
EXCEED 100000 MEN

London, Jan. 23.-The gross cas-
ualties in the war up to the begin
ming of January exceed 14,900,000,
according to the computations of a
prominent statistician and student
of war estimates.
The basis for the figures is official.
The number of killed is estimated at
one in every five, and prisoners ia
ken average one in every seven or
eight.
The experts estimate of gross cas-
ualties suffered by each warning ma
ton follows:
Russian, 100000.
Germany, 100000.
Hungary, 100000.
France, 100000.
Great Britain, 100000.
Italy, 100000.
Belgium, Serbia, Bulgaria and
Turkey, 100000.
Grand total, 14,960,O00.
In the present war at least 21,-
00O,0 men are under arms.
Figures furnished by previous
wars show that in the Balkan strug-
gle of 1912-1913 100000 men were
killed out of 1,25O,OO0 engaged. In
the Russo-Japanese war $4,000
were killed out of 100000 engag-
ed.

1t is estimated that fierce and un-
controlled temper, as manifested by
human beings towards each other,
has caused as much suffering and
misery as any of the so-called social
habits-not barring the drink evil.
No doubt this is true. The harbor-
ing of grudges and family estrange-
ments usually gets its start from
some outburst of temper. The vic
tins sometimes call it pride or
thigh spirit" That does not lesser
its lasting influence for evil. These
tempers and grudges are INDUCED
sometimes for years by people
professed christians. some of them
who imagine they are living high
above any odium of "intemperance."

1t is announced that the lunatic
asylums of the State are so over
crowded with patients and that there
is hardly room for more. The main
cause for this is our very lax laws in
regard to sending people to the State
hospitals. The asylums constitute
the great dumping-ground for poor,
unfortunate humanity. Many peo-
pie are "railroaded" to these insti-
tutions who are not crazy in the real
sense. but are simply physically az
flicted and helpless. Under our
present law it is little trouble to
send person to an asylum. This
law is a burning shame to the Stat 9
and should be amended by our pres
ent Legislature.

Every year sees big wrangle
over the taxing matter in Kentucky.
The Board of listers" gets in its
work, both county and State, and
crowds of exasperated taxpayers ap-
pear before the Board to protest
against what they consider to be ex-
orbitant raises. It's an annual fuss
and turmoil. Many bear their raises
in silence rather than go through
the sweating" process. OF course
all this is legal and, under our pres
ent taxing system quite necessary to
provide adequate State revenues.
But if the assessor got mans list
more carefully and correctly at the
start, there would be less of it.

DIV weather cultivation.

Samuel M. Jordon Of the
State Board of Agriculture says
that the two important things
in dry weather cultivation of
corn are to prevent evaporation
Of the water in the soil and to
retain what may fall as rain.
To leave a slightly corrugated
surface is best, since a fiat sur
face of dust will get hotter than
one with slight corrugations
similar to the surface as it is
left following a corrugated roll
er. Since on the flat surface the
suns rays strike more nearly
perpendicular to the surface,
hence evaporation by the wind
and heat will be less than on a
flat surface.
Again, if the surface of dust is
left fiat and a heavy rain should
fall, this flat surafce win "pud-
die" more quickly than the cor
The Lexington intelligencer. [volume] (Lexington, Mo.) 1901-1949, 1916-07-21

rugated surface, hence the water
will begin to run more quickly
from the flat surface, while on
the corrugated surface more rain
gets into the soil, which is very
desirable in a dry time.
Again, after the rain has ceas-
ed the fiat surface viii dry more
rapidly, and crack open worse
than will the corrugated sur
face.
In view of these facts, any
tool such as a drag, mower, Oh
corn planter wheel, should have
some harrow teeth so placed as
that they will leave the surface
slightly rough. Where shove
tools are used, the plowinl
should not be deep, nor very
close to the corn roots, especially
toward time for laying by"
1t would appear that corn root
finish their growth early, and d,
not grow much after the corn i
large as can be pIowed with
two-horse cultivator. Cutting
off the roots when they hav
made their full growth does
damage that cannot be repair
ed.
Cultivation should be frequen
enough to keep down weeds an
to prevent the crusting an
cracking of the surface.

Peach Trees Cut Back Need
Summer Pruning.


In many parts of Missouri
fruit buds Of the peach we're kill
ed by late fT0sts. As a result
of Nais the trees were usually
and properly pruned back Sc
verely to renew this years
growth of wood lower down.
AS a result of this heading
back and the moist season, the
trees are making an unusually
vigorous dense growth Of new
branches. In order to secure
the best form of tree according
to the experience of the Missouri
Agricultural Experiment Station
this dense growth Of new limbs
should now be thinned. If all
these branches are left crowding
each other, they will fill the CEN
ter Of the tree which viii result
in their being shaded and weak
ened. This will prevent the
proper fruit bud formation in the
body Of the tree.
Enough thinning of the dense
branches in cut back peach trees
should be done to open up the
center of the trees to admit sun
light and air. Space the branch.
es so each one will have room
to make full development and
mature its fruit buds for The
coming season. Pruning should
be most abundant in the center
of the tree in order to form {
rather open center and to en-
courage the formation of a low
wide spreading head. The ten
dency Of much Of this nev
growth is directly upwards. Il
many cases strong inner branch
es growing straight up may b
tipped back TO outward growing
side branches to secure latera
spreading form of the tree.
Give this strong new growtl
plenty of room and light and
fine crop of fruit buds will resul
; next year, but if they are to
r densely shaded, the fruit bud
cannot develop and mature t
n best condition.

AND LA PAZ

The recent opening of that portion
of the Colorado River Indian reser-
vation embracing the rich mineral
district across the Colorado river just
east of Blythe is attracting wide
spread attention among the best min-
ing men.
Within the past thirty days repre-
sentatives of some of the biggest min
ing companies of the country have
visited the section around Quartzsite
and all go away we'll pleased with
what they have seen.
Several properties in the La PaZ
and Quartzsite districts have lately
been bonded and prospecting and in
itial development work is going on
over there.
Only a few days ago, in company
with one of the best known mining
engineers i'll the country, the writer
paid visit to the Quartzsite section.
After looking over portion of it,
we asked the engineer for his gem
eral opinion as to what he thonght
of the possibilities of this district be-
coming the center of much mining
activity i'm the near future and of it's
possibility OF making a mining camp
equal at least, to that of the Oat-
man district. He replied:
Without any detraction or any dis
credit TO the Oatman country, i will
unhesitatingly say that from what I
have seen of the country around
Quartzsite and La PaZ,it has far bet
ter prospects of making big mining
camp than ever Oatman did, with
the same amount of development.
There are numerous prospects here
that | have seen that have all the
''ear marks of making good produc-
ing mines, and nothing short of a
miracle will disprove the prediction.
The formations, character OF the
ore, and the prospective large ore
bodies, make this a safe proposition
for any company to come in here to
do development work.
In conclusion the, writer will say,
that a new era has daWned upon the
mining industry of this section and
no new mining field in the southwest
is attracting more attention for legiti-
mate mining men than that part of
Yuma county, just across the river
from the Palo Verde Valley.-Bfytha
