ment of Agriculture.)
One of the best methods of curing
nay is to cure in the cock. This method
Is not generally practiced except in re-
gfons where unfavorable weather is
the rule rather than the exception, or
when the best quality of legume hay is
desired. Throughout the middle West,
where hay leaders are used, hay is not
cooked because of the extra labor re-
qufred and the inability to handle
cooked hay with the hay loader.
1t has been shown that it is neces-
sary to get rid of the water in the
plant evenly. On a sunshiny day hay
must be raked after it has been in the
swath a certain length of time, or the
leaves will become dried out and lose
color. When it is raked into the
windrow smaller proportion of the
hay is exposed to the action of the
suns rays. After remaining in the
windrow, where further curing is
done, the time is reached when it be-
comes necessary to remove the hay in
order to retain a good color and
aroma.
Cure Hay in Cocks.
When this stage is reached the next
thing to do is to put the hay into the
cock, where still smaller proportion
of the hay will be exposed to the sun.
The curing process is not stopped
when hay is cooked, but goes on less
rapidly than when in the Window and
much more slowly than when: in the
swath. The hay in the cock continues
to lose it's moisture slowly: until it is
cured out sufficiently TO be baled or
put into the stack or barn. The time
required for curing will depend upon
the moisture content when cooked, the
amount of hay put into the cock, and
also upon weather conditions. rs.
Under ordinary conditions hay will
cure in the cock in from three days to
a week. Hay cooked too "green" will
cause heating. The larger the cock
the more danger there is Of heating
when undercured hay is cooked. Hay
Is put into cocks containing from Is
to 100 pounds of cured hay. About
100 pounds. is the size most commonly
used in many sections. =
Cloudy and rainy weather not only
retards curing but may cause heating
if the rain enters the cock. When,

LARGE WAR ORDER IS PLACED WITH COPPER
 PRODUCERS RECENTLY

In copper circles it is stated that some of the largest orders for war purposes were allotted to the pro ducers during the past week for the account of this government and its allies. While this does not mean that the producers have not received all the orders they could take care of heretofore. it does in dicate that the contracts for future requirements have increased, says the Boston Financial News.
 There is practically no demand from outside consumers. This con- dition has been brought about by the knowledge among users that no metal is available for their plants at present, and that the entire out put of the country is beiNg put Into war work. According to the pres ent indication this situation will continue for some time.
 The output of the leading pro- ducers thus far in September is said to have been satisfactory and there are many observers who ex- pect the month to record good in creases in production figures. com pared with the totals reported for August. Weather conditions have been favorable for uninterrupted work, and this is likely to be re- flected when the figures are an nounced.

DISINTEGRATION IN
 SIBERIA DUE TO
 FEELING OF PEOPLE

SHIMONOSEKI, Japan, Aug. 20. - Correspondence of The Associated Press. s.)-Returned from a mission in Siberia, Maj. Gen. NJ. Nakashima of the Japanese army, affirmed that the whole of Siberia was in a state of dis integration, that the people had learn cd that the Leninite government was nothing but a puppet in German hands and that their one desire was that the allies should extend a helping hand to them.
 He said that when the question of Japanese intervention was to the front some time ago. his hotel was besieged with eager visitors, who seemed unan- .mous in hoping for a speedy realiza- tion of the project of intervention He added: Among those who appealed to me for Japanese assistance were some noble families arriving from Flu rOpean Russia as refugees. A certaal Russian declared that if allied assist ance was not forthcoming there was
 
 nothing for them but to appeal to the Germans for help, for they could not leave their lives and property in the present uncertain state"
 The officer said that in Chita the administrative power had been usurp- ed by German and Austrian prisoners of war. Of the arming of prisoners of war there we he believed, no doubt. Al -r- the forces of General Semenoff were some 1000 prisoners of war.
 "Generally speaking" he added, conditions in Siberia are as chaotic as ever The intellectual classes have been deprived of their property and reduced to a most distressing state The agricultural classes are without seed to SOW this year and anticipate with grave concern the advent of fam inc next winter"

The general character of the ore is sul- phides, bornite, chalcopyrite and chal- cocite, but some Of the most beauti- full crystals of cuprite, malachite and azurite to be found anywhere have been taken from "bugholes" and cav ities in the ore bodies of the upper workings specimens that have attract ed considerable attention from geolo- gists and mineralogists.
 Critic Mine
 The Critic mine, just to the west of the Little Giant, still continues as a producer for Nolacheck and Hatch, lessees, and now has total production record of about half a million dollars, all from above the 4OO-foot level. Some shoots of ore running exceptionally high in gold have been struck lately, while the copper values are always good. It is reported that the gold values will average well above $50 per ton in some of the ore recently shipped.
 Wilkinson Group
 Work will probably be started soon on the Wilkinson, or Little Giant ex- tension, property joining the Little Giant and covering 5000 feet Of the same vein; also upon the American Flag claim of the Vindicator group and upon the Jerry group. It is also reported that the Conrad group and the Lucas group have been taken over by Salt Lake and Denver operators. Word has also been received from the east that the Cobrita Verde people will resume operations very soon, probably next month.
 Gold Properties Quiet
 Very little is doing with the gold properties and prospects this year on account of the high cost of mining and unfavorable labor conditions, everything having gone up in price but gold, which has had a detrimental effect on gold properties all over the west Both the Harqua Hala and the Glory Hole properties have been closed down for some months and it is not probable that any new work will be done on any gold properties until after the war or until prices and conditions change.
 High grade copper properties. how ever, especially those having ship ping ores available, are going right ahead and taking advantage of the high price for copper and, as this is a high grade district and shipper, it is probable that the coming fall and winter will be a busy one.

NEW YORK, Sept. 21.-Continueu strength in the stock market today illustrated by a further upward rise in prices, was held n some quarters to reflect a stronger investment po' sition. The opinion was emphasized by the weekly bank statement, issued after the markets strong close. The statement showed the expected i'm prov ement in- monetary conditions, the surplus reserves having increaseo $40, ,5S0,9 during the week. This condition operated to the advantage of stock exchange borrowers, funds be- ing more freely supplied during the week, which caused an expansion of S72,64S,O GOO in the loan account. The scope of the buying movement was interpreted as indicating some acces- sion of outside orders, which contrib uted to a comprehensive advance in specialties of one to three points. Dealings, however, were largely of a professional character, with more general buying for the long and short account The sluggishness Of the railroads in view of the demonsJra- ton of strength elsewhere, was con sidered disappointing to investment
