Orleans County Farmers Pleased.

In 1915, ii top-dressing demonstra-
tions were made by Orleans county farm
ers in cooperation with the county agri-
cultural agent. In some cases, the fer
tilted plot yielded four tons TO the acre,
while the unfertilized portion from the
same field yielded but two tons per acre.
The extra hay cost the farmers from
Sls0 to $500 per ton. Nitrate of soda,
acid phosphate, muriate Of potash and
Peruvian giano were used in the mix
ture, which cost the farmers 1862 per
ton. The amount applied varied from
200 to 300 pounds per acre.
Many farmers saw the results and
were convinced. Much more top dressing
than usual was done in Orleans county
this year, and large per cent. of the
chemicals ordered through the Orleans
County Farmers exchange were secured
for this purpose.
Not all of the farmers knew of the
results in 1915, and not all farmers
could be convinced in one year, so ID top
dressing demonstrations are being CON
Quoted this year under supervision of the
county agent. Mr.. Deuel. expects them
TO be some of his very best demonstra-
tions and feels that every farmer should
see at least one. They will be given in
the following towns: Albany, Irasburg,
Barton, Newport, Craftsbury, Browning
ton, Greensboro and Glover.
On account of the unusual fertilizer
situation this year, mixture differing
q little from that of last year was used
which cost the farmers s4750 per ton
The best way to know how much good
Is derived from county agent work is to
see some of the demonstrations and see
how many farmers are putting the infor-
nation to practical test.

BIG YEAR FOR MINES.
Geological Surveys Mid-Year Review
Shows General Prosperity.

'The accomplishment of the mining
industry in the six-month period just
completed warrants the forecast that
1915 is to be record breaking year.
With this statement the director of the
United States geological survey sums
up his official mid year review of the
mineral industry as reported to him by
the government biologists and statisti-
ciaps covering the different subjects.
Active demands and good prices have
furnished the mine operators with full
opportunity for success in working de-
veloped properties, and this in turn has
given added incentive and available
funds for exploration, prospecting, and
experimentation with new processes. The
mining man is having his innings.
Summarizing the special reports which
are now being made public, Director
Smith continues his review:
The returns for six months furnish
a basis for the belief that 1915 will set
up a new record for the soft-coal mines
Every al-mining state is sharing in
this prosperity and of course this de-
mand for coal is to be traced back to
the increased business of the railroads
and of the steel and other large indus
tries.
Drilling activity throughout the oil
producing states has brought about
gratifying increase in production of
crude oil that promises to make 1918
a record year for marketed petroleum.
Already production and consumption are
reported by the surveys specialist as
essentially in balance east of the Rocky
with a tendency to lower
prices.
The Portland cement industry has had
busy six months and the manufac-
,urers are optimistic. 1t is predicted
hat both production and shipments
" cement this year will show a gain |
,ver last year, if indeed il does not es-
ablish new record for cement.
Among the metals copper is continu
ne the steady increase in production |
which began early last year. and the
orecast for 1915 indicates not only the
argest output ever known but also the
argest profits.
Shipments of iron ore from Lake SUI
