SOON COMPLETE HELIUM PLANT
 ATFT. WORTH

FORT WORTH, Texas, Jan. 22 (by Associated Press) Finishing touches are being put on the federal govern' ment's $5,000,000 helium gas plant six miles north of Forth Worth, and opep ations on large scale are expected to begin soon.
 This announcement is made by Lieutenant Griffin, who is in charge as the representative of the navy de partment. The last of the machinery was shipped to Fort Worth before the first of the year.
 Established in 1917 at a cost of $800,000, the plant has been an ex. pertinent station thus far, But the worth of the gas and its economy for us by the navy and army balloons have been pl owed to the satisfaction of military experts.
 In addition to the plant near Fort Worth the government also has con structed private pipe line from Pc trolia which brings natural gas from the Lone Star Company's wells right into the plant. After the argon qualities, from which helium is ob. tained, have been extracted, the gas is returned to the mains and burned by Fort Worth and other consumers, in northern Texas.
 The argon or helium plant was erected in great secrecy, a guard of soldiers being constantly maintained around 1t until after the armistice. During war days, admission was de. nied to the public and only picked workmen were employed.
 The experiments at the station had been so successful before the armis. tice that it was predicted the use of the argon gas would speedily termi. nate the conflict. However, no op.

MUSHES OVER
 TRAILS FROM
 FORT NORMAN

That the oil indications in the Fort Norman district in the Mackenzie river country are good and that there will be a stampede in there next spring, is the opinion of J. T. Burns, commonly known as Engineer" Burns, who was on board the Prin- cess Mary from Skagway after having completed the long much of 1885 miles over the winter trails from the Fort Norman district, says the Juneau Empire. Several hundred miles of the trip were made by Burns after he had fallen over a precipice and brok- en a bzone in his foot and injured his hip.
 Burns said he left Prince Rupert in June and struck the Laird river that empties into the Mackenzie. He fol- lowed that stream, struck the Mac kenzie and visited Fort Norman. He said the country Is a rich one with oil and gas indications showing for distance off 300 miles The coun- try is also heavily mineralized and he found gold and silver quartz prospects that he declares are very rich. He also found placer diggings but said that it was not rich enough to work at the present price of commodities in the district.
 In the district he met many oil To- catOrs and a number of prospectors including the great musher, Wada the Jap. They were all very enthus- iastic over both oil and gold pros- poets. The country is so big he said that it has hardly been touched as yet and much of it has never been thoroughly mapped.
 Burns has been in the north for twenty-three years and is known as one of the greatest mushers in the territory. He has mushed many thousands of miles and 1t is said his record is only equalled by Wada the Jap. He had with him today his dog Peary, whom he has had for fifteen years and who has accompanied him on every trip and has walked over 26,000 miles.
 Burns is a mining engineer by pro- fession who came originally from Australia. He has been in every stampede since Klondike days where he worked some good ground. He is enthusiastic over the north and de. clares that many good diggings, in- cluding the Mackenzie, will yet be de. vcloped.
 On his present trip he followed what is known as an old Indian mail trail that brought him to Atlin and from Atlin he hit the White Pass to Skagway He is now going to Prince Rupert and will in the spring again go into the Mackenzie river country to develop his prospects and further examine the country.
 He declares that the logical route to Fort Norman is the route that he took in going in last summer by the water trail. .

Talks to Farmers
BY T. F. PECK
COMMISSIONER OF AGRICULTURE
SUBSOILING.
BY T. F. PECE

[ have had a few farmers tell
me that they did not believe in
subsoiling-that it killed their land
for the next years crop. A little
questioning always delevoped the
fact that their subsoiling had been
done during the spring or when
the subsoil was wet during the fall
or winter. Subsoilng should new
er be done when the subsoil is wet,
and never during the spring
months. The plant food in the
subsoil is dormant, and every one
knows that land ploughed wet,
whether it is the surface or the
subsoil, will cause the plant food to
be locked up and made unavailable
for plants.
When ] subsoil field [ want to
have some sort of vegetable matter
to turn under. I set my turning
plow SO that the bottom skins the
hardpan; then follow in the fur
row with a subsoil pillow set so that
it will break up the hardpan just
as a mole will break up the soil
where it travels. The next furrow
of the turning pillow will place the
vegetable matter I am turning un-
der directly in contact with the
broken up subsoil, and during the
winter months the rains, the frost
and the air will get in and disinte-
CRATE the subsoil, mix it with the
decaying vegetable matter, start up
bacterial activity, and make avail
able the locked up and dormant
plant food. When the ground is
dry enough in the spring / stir it
as deep as it has been subsoiled
with narrow plows. Anyone who
will follow the method outlined will
be sure to get satisfactory results.
The next time that land islto be
broken, l set my turning plow as
deep as the subsoil plow.
The increased crop production
on land that has been properly
SUBSIDIZED at the right time and
properly prepared and cultivated
will satisfy any doubling Thomas
of the value of subsoiling. If There
were no other benefit than in pre-
venting land from washing, subsoil-
ing would pay we'll. Our lands,
when new and full of humus, are
not bad to wash, but we have been
breaking shallow and turning un-
der little if any vegetable matter.
Hard rains fills the shallow soil
with more water than it can retain
and it sloughs off. We soon get
rid of the vegetable matter; as it
gets out of the soil, the soil bakes
especially il we pillow the ground
too wet, and we have to fight clods
all summer to pay for our poor
judgement.
have taken farms that have been
plowed shallow and allowed to wash
until they were in gullies and the
hard subsoil laid bare, and rebuilt
those farms by ploughing in the
gullies. breaking up the bare SUBJ
soil areas, leveling it down, letting
it weather during the winter.
In the spring I would use all the
available barnyard manure and get
a crop Of vegetable matter to turn
under during the fall months, and
seed to rye and crimson clover,
which in turn was turned under.
Then l was ready for money crop.
l got my nitrogen from the air, and
the vegetable matter enabled me to
make available the dormant plant
food in the subsoil.
