 The Kennecott corporation leads the list and will pay approximate ly a $225,O0O tax. The Chicagor company comes second on the li' with about $6,OOO, although t. Yukon Gold, 8 Guggenheim corpol ton operating dredging ground Iditarod, will come within q small amount of an equal sum.
 The Pioneer Mining company, op- eraling dredges and hand placers at Nome and the Ellamar company operating a copper mine, will be rivals for third place with about s2,O0O each. The Berry brothers operating a dredge at Forty mile, will pay about $2,5OO.

FOR DRY FARMING
Can Be Practiced Where Water
Is Not Available.
REQUIRES MUCH PATIENCE.

In Missouri, In Drought of 1914, Use Of
Dry Farming Methods by Only Part
of Farmers Largely Increased Yield
of Corn Per Acre as Compared With
That of 1901.
Washington.-With the burden Of
supplying the worlds wartime crop
facing this country, the committee Oh
statistics and standards of the Chamber
Of Commerce of the United States has
called attention to the possibilities
Of dry farming. Such methods, it is
declared, can be made to fit the re-
~quirements for raising many Of our
most important products. Dry farm
ing is said to be the only form Of agri-
culture which can be successfully prac-
ticed in any region where water is not
available for irrigation and where
rainfall is not sufficient for humid
farming.
The inherent purpose Of dry farming,
it is pointed out, is to conserve mois-
ture in the soil until needed for grow
ing plants. The dry farmer resorts to
methods Of timely and proper cultiva-
ton, narrowing, disking and blowing,
to increase the penetration Of water,
prevent evaporation n store mois-
ture in the soil for the benefit Of the
plants.
"Dry farming is not ar easy job, nor
is the lot Of the farmer in the semi
arid regions any happier at times than
that of the policemen in the Pirates
Of ~Penzance,'" says Archer Wall Doug
tional commerce committee. ut is a
business requiring much industry, pa
tience, fortitude and intelligent under
standing Of the surrounding conditions.
Likewise in the beginning it needs
some reserve capital against emergen-
ctes. For there are years when, through
weeks, even months, Of rainless heat,
the sky is as brass and the earth as
iron underneath, and rainfall only a
distant memory.
"Yet persevered in and intelligently
stuck to, it is apt to record a success
and to furnish a great need for the
utilization of the vast area of semi
arid country. Once exploited as a
panacea, then denounced as a fad, it
has at last come into it's own as an in
tellieent scientific form of agriculture.
absolutely essential to the development
Of a large section of our country"
OF particular interest in meeting wal
time conditions is the argument that
dry farming methods L applicable
not only to farming in the semiarid,
but likewise humid regions in times Of
drought. In Missouri in the drought
Of 1914 the use Of dry farming methods
by only a part of the farmers largely
increased the yield Of corn per acre, as
compared with similar conditions in
1901.

Assistant District Forester
Fem Returns From Salt
Lake Conference.
GRAVES PRESIDES'
Many Questions Affecting
National Forests Thor
oughly Discussed.

Major F. "A. Fem, assistant district
forester Of district No. !, returned
yesterday from Salt Lake city, where
he attended. the convention of district
foresters and assistant district for
esters held in that city last week. Dis
trict Forester Silcox, who also attended
the conference, will not return to Mis-
soula for couple Of days. being de-
1ayed in Salt Rke by government
business. The conferenee was called
in order that forestry officials might
discuss matters affecting forest reserve
lands. The district foresters Ahd as
sistant district foresters in charge of
lands from all the seven districts were
present. Chief Forester Henry s.
Graves, the head Of the federal forest
service. presided at the conference.
Among the matters that received
special consideration at the meeting
were questions of land administration,
homesteads. boundaries, and entry
surveys. No changes of any conse-
quence in the land policies OF the for
est service were effected at the meet
ing, though considerable time was
spent in studying out the procedure
under existing land policies. The
question of recreation establishments
in the national forests and the i'm
provements of the reserves in order to
make the recreation locations access
sible was discussed and met with ia
vorable comment.
The general question of classified
ton of lands was thoroughly consid-
cred. and plans for the completion of
this work were formulated. as it is ex-
pected that all the lands in the ma
tional forests will be definitely CLASH :
fled inside of two years. A good deal
of interest was shown in regard to
the extension Of the national forests
through acquisition, but 1t was the
consensus of opinion that lands of for
est value only should be considered in
this connection. Different methods of
acquiring lands were taken up, the
general opinion being that for the
present at least the service should ex-
change stumpage for cut-over land, It
was determined that as soon as the
classification work was disposed Of,
the forestry crews engaged in that
work should be assigned to acquisition
operations.
District Forester Hall, in charge OF
district No. 2. including the national
forests in the White r,o,,ntaino ord
the Appalachians, also gave an inter-
esting discussion on conditions in that
part Of the country. The supervisor
of the Alaska forests was present al
the meeting and gave some very in
teresting information in regard tc
problems affecting the service in the
north.
