FIRM GROUND FOR PLANTING
Plants in Loose Soil Cannot Draw suf.
fieient Moisture to Make Them
Thrive Well.

Ground for planting whether seeds
plants or trees, should be fairly firm
Too often the garden is plowed up late
and the seeds planted in the loose soil
without giving 1t any frming, and then
the seeds are blamed because they do
not terminate. Plants set in such
ground are often supposed to be poor
ly rooted or have low vitality, when in
reality neither seeds nor plants can
draw sufficient moisture from the
loose ground to make them grow. A
garden roller is as necessary as pillow
If the pillow is used late.
If the ground is plowed early enough
so it can settle we'll before being
planted and then lightly cultivated on
the surface to keep the weeds down
and form dust mulch until it IS plant
ed, both seeds and plants will start
much better and grow faster. Deep
fall blowing with the surface left
rough, and then light culture before
planting in the spring, is the ideal
method, provided you do not want to
give it two or three plowings during
the winter, with light applications of
manure.

NEW VARIETIES OF POTATOES
Produced on Vines-Plant in Hot
house or Cold Frame.

New varieties of potatoes are orig
mated from seed which is found in
the bolls produced on the vines. The
seed which is light and fine should be
saved in the same manner as the seed
from tomatoes.
Cut open the bolls and squeeze out
the seeds into a small vessel with as
little pulp as possible. Add warm
water and allow the mess to ferment
for two days so that the little seeds
will wash clear from the pulp. After
being washed the seeds should be
dried, in which condition they will
keep through the winter. Anyone who
tries to carry the seed boil through
The winter will likely lose all the
seeds.
Along in March prepare some fine.
rich light soil that will hold moisture.
Rotten COW manure several years old
is better than common soil. The seed
may be planted in a. dollhouse, cold
frame or In a box in the kitchen win
dow. 1t should be covered very slight
ly with soil and must be kept moist
by frequent watering or by covering
with piece of cloth until the seeds
begin to break ground.
The plants come up quickly and
should be transplanted and handled
like tomatoes. They will frequently

Died of Premature Old Age

How many times we hear Of compare
lively young persons passing away when
they should have lived to be 20 or so years
of age. This fatal work is usually attri-
buted to the kidneys, as. when the kidneys
degenerate, it causes auto-intoxieation.
The more injurious the poisons passing
thru the kidneys the quicker viii those
noble organs be degenerated, and the
sooner they decay.
1t is thus the wisest policy, to prevent
premature old age and promote long life,
to tighten the work of the kidneys. This
can be done by drinking plenty of pure
water all day long, and occasionally tax
ing q little Anuric before meals. This
can be obtained at almost any drug store
You will find Anuric more potent than
lithia for it dissolyes uric acid Us water

FEW WOMEN OF
TODAY WORK BLINDLY

Used to be that daughters adhered
strictly to mothers methods of home
management. They used certain bak-
ing recipes simply because they were
favorities of a former generation.
Times have changed radically. Col
leges and clubs have been established
for the express purpose of determin-
ing just which baking methods and
baking materials are best. Many do
nestle scientists devote their lives to
research and experimental work. They
are constantly testing food products.
They conduct exhaustive comparative
tests. They accept and endorse only
such methods and baking processes
as have been found superior through
scientific measurement of merit. These
decisions are given wide publicity.
The result is that the housewife o.
today produces more wholesome and
perfect bakings at less cost than ever
before.
In investigating the decisions
handed down by pure food specialists
and eminent domestic scientists, it IS
plainly evident that the overwhelm-
ing majority employ and advocate the
use of Calumet Baking Powder. Calu-
met has won this popularity among
experts on merit alone. They show no

Calumet has been granted that APP

cause it is absolutely sure in results

perfectly pure, leaves no trace of
harmful residue in foods. Then-be-
cause it produces a better grade of
bakings-cakes, biscuits, etc, that are
remarkably light, tender and tasty
Finally-because of Calumet's surety
and moderate price it is the most
economical of all baking powders in
cost and use.
This verdict-this hearty endorse
ment coming from experts who have
proved Calumet's excellence beyond

USES FOR THE DISK HARROW
ments--lndispensabIe inPreparihg
Sod for Potatoes.

The disk harrow is one of the most
valued implements on the farm. 1t is
almost Indispensable in the prepare
ton of sod ground for potatoes or
corn.
One of the most important uses of
this implement is to break up the sur
face soil few days in advance of the
pillow, so that capillary attraction of
moisture will be readily established
with the subsoil.
1t effectually seals the surface OF the
unplowed land so that it will keep
moist for longer period of time, and
consequently pillow easier in case a
drought comes on so as to seriously
interfere with the work of blowing.

HUMBOLDT CON-.
DRIVES TUNNEL
ADIT HAS BEEN EXTENDED
OVER HALF MILE INTO
MOUNTAIN

Apparently the dream Of the
officials of the Humboldt Console
dated has come true, and at a
depth of 1900 feet, the gold-bear-
ing lode which was sampled on the
surface of Indian Peak, in the Hum
boldt range, has been encountered.
This is the result of six a of
labor, during which time a tun-
mel more than a half a mile in
length was driven through the
black lime dyke of the Humboldt
range, in the belief that the values
known above extended to the lower
depth.
The purpose of the tunnel was
to make possible exceptionally cheap
mining of the ore, by proving the
depth of the vein, and enabling
mining the ore from underneath.
Assays taken during the past
week show an increasing presence
of gold and silver content, with the
gold predominating, and each days
work is being watched with keen
interest by the operators.
For the past month the black
lime dyke. on the other side Of
which vas the porphyry contact
where the values were expected, has
been giving signs of terminating.
Stringers and water courses made
frequent appearance, and at the
present time, the dyke is highly
marked with copper and bromide
stains, and carrying values around

few days work will see the cutting

a force of surveyors laying out a
road down the Jarbidge river which
will cut out bad parts of the road.
Elko county officials have done
considerable talking about building
a new road and it is to be hoped
that such a road will be built, as
