DEESTRICT SCHOOL
 GREAT SUCCESS

Last evening the Chloride dramatic company played the Deestrict School to a big audience at Elks hall. The play was well put on, every one of the actors going through his or her stunt like old stagerS. The one central fig ure that was enjoyed more possibly than any other was the giggling school girl. She was perfectly natural and her giggle was certainly infec- tious. Mrs. Cravens and Mrs. Virgin also took we'll with the house. The other members of the company were the real thing and their acting brought back to the old fellows in the audi ence their school days in the old log school house back home.
 Mrs. Tafel's singing was well re- ceived. She has a wonderfully sweet well trained voice and Kingman peo- pie would much enjoy it if she would give a recital in Kingman some time in the near future. And we would also extend the invitation to all the members of the Chloride company to come again.

THE MAN WHO LOSES

We heard that old, old chestnut again the other day: "Yes, but I know a man who lost money in min ing" The saying is about on par with that other once popular faIlacy: 'NIore money is put into mining than is ever taken out"
 We all know men and women who have lost money in mining. We also know people who have lost money in every other human pursuit and in every industry, great and small. We know people who would lose in any venture; people who have the not un- common faculty of getting rid of money and who will back any graft CT who comes along, no matter how transparent his game. We have lost few hard-earned dollars ourselves -on smOke-consumers, etc.
 The reason is lack of judgment the inability to discriminate between the wheat and the chaff7 7tbetween the honest man and the rogue. Because we bought stock in a smoke consumer company which did not exist is no reason why we should condemn the manufacturing industry. Because our friend Jones made a failure of farm ing is no reason to suppose that all farms are failures. Neighbor John son, who entered the merchandising business, also went broke. However, we do not condemn the practice of buying goods and selling them at a profit, except as the high cost of liv- ing hits us personally. And Smith, across the street, put the money his father left him into a bank venture He lost it, and the failure was blamed to dishonest cashier, though most of us know better. But none of us lam bast the banking business for Smiths failure.
 Mining seems to be the only in dustry which is condemned because people have lost money in it. And yet mining, when conducted along bus mess lines and by hard-headed men of experience, has been proven time and again to contain less hazard than many of the so-called conservative in dustries. The fact is when a man en- ters mining he is playing for big stakes. If he makes good, his gains are enormous and out of all propor- tion to the money invested originally. And it is this phase which gives it its fascination and which impels people to speculate without proper investiga- | tion.
 The successful man, with money to back his judgment, who invests in mining with the same care, the same cautious investigation, that he dis plays in other investments, invariably makes money from the industry. It is never said of him that "he lost money in mining" On the other hand, the pursuit of the precious and base metals has made more wealthy men of struggling laborers than any other line of human endeavor.
 Nevertheless, the censure directed against mining because of the man who lost is out of all proportion to the grudging credit which is accorded it because of the many who have won. Salt Lake Mining Review.

This week Judge Paul C. Ihorne held his first jury session since induct- ed into the office. Many jurors were called, but there were only a few crim- inal causes to be tried and the jury was not held all the week. The first cause tried was that of the state apainst Forest Weatherholt on a charge of burglary. He was found guilty and sentenced to an indetermin- ate sentence of from one to three wears. Neil Broaded was found guilty of the crime of petit larceny but was not sentenced.
 The case of William H. Hall against George A. Bonelli is being tried be- fore a jury. Hall is suing Bonelli for S1O,OOO damages on account of de- fendant having caused the arrest of plaintiff on a larceny charge. The cause is before a jury today.

There is each spring a scarcity or

the more regrettable, because it need
not exist; and 1t is much more serious
than commonly supposed, because
many do not realize fully the tremen-
dous loss to themselves and the coun-
try due to the planting of inferior seed.
A full stand of plants may be obtained
from inferior seed, but the yield will
not be the best possible. The loss is
due to delay or negligence. 1t can be
prevented by the selection of seed corn
In the autumn.
To be first class, seed must be:
1. OF a variety well adapted to the
seasonal and soil conditions where it
Is to be planted.
2. Grown on productive plants OF a

SUITABLE TIME FOR
HARVESTING PEANUTS
Save Maximum Amount of Food
by Gathering When Mature.
Vines Should Be Stacked Before
Leaves Become Dry and Have
Fallen Off-Use Care to Pre-
vent Crop From MoIding.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agricultural
Harvesting peanuts before they are
mature, as is often the case among
inexperienced growers, is responsible
for considerable loss in the yield of
marketable peanuts. A few of the
peanuts are very likely to mature and
sprOut during rainy weather before
the crop is ready to be dug. The vines
assume yellowish appearance when
the crop is mature, which is usually
but not always, a good indication as
to the proper time for harvesting.
This, together with the turning brown
and falling off of the lower leaves,
and the plump appearance of the pods
should be the guide In determining the
maturity of the crop.
After the crop has been dug the
vines should be stacked before the
leaves become dry and have fallen off,
and special care should be given to
