lower CROP COSTS BY
INCREASING YIELDS
Reduced Labor Costs, Early Planting, Longer
Growing Season Solve Low Price.

Presumably most OF the crops raised in 1921 will have
TO be SOLD at lower plces than obtained last year But
crops have to be raised just the same
One positive way OF reducing the production costs ner
OF beeS or per bushel OF grain per bag OF potatoes
to increase the yield per acre Not by expensive
methods but by merely doing the work early enough to
give the crop the longest, effective growing season
There will undoubtedly be reduction in labor costs
Last year the acreage OF beets planted by Nav was
almost the lowest IN ten years and exceeded only in few
districts Is cent of the total beet acreage finally
planted In every district the benefits of early planting
could be clearly seen on the relatively small acreage plant
ed on time.
There are more reasons than ever this wear to make
every attempt to get all crops in the most favorable
early date.
There many districts where beets can safely be
planted between April and Is.
There is no district where beets cannot be planted
with advantage before May l.
Insofar as the yield be increased by better and
timely farming methods, that should be the working
principle for overcoming lowered prices any crop.

WORK MAYBE PERMANENTLY CHANGED

Washington, D. C., June 7.I-The House Committee on Mines and Min ing has submitted a favorable report on the bill introduced by Hon. Carl Hayden of Arizona to change the period for doing assessment work on unpatented mining claims from the calendar year to the fiscal year end ing June 30. Hon. Marion E. Rhodes of Missouri, the Chairman of the Com mittee, in reporting the Hayden bill made the following statement.
 "The sole object of this bill is to change the time for performing the work. required to be done annually on unpatented mining claims from the calendar year to the<fiscal year, such change to begin at midnight of July l, 1921. Every portion of the mining laws will remain the same except that the 12 months within which such work must be done will begin on July 1 and end on June 30 of the following year instead of beginning on January 1 and ending on December 31 of each

of Nevada, in February, 1921, passed

of Nevada, in February, 1921, passed by a unanimous vote, a memorial to Congress urging the enactment of leg islation which will provide "that the period in which annual assessment work shall be done between the 30th day of June of one year and the 1st day of July of the succeeding year."
 Only two objections have been made to this change in the mining law. It is said that there is a demand for farm labor in May and June which does not exist in November and De- cember. The fact is that in the noun tain regions of the West the harvest season does not begin until after July 1, so that there will be ample time for men who have been doing assess ment workl to go down into the irri- gated valleys and assist in gathering the crops. The other objection comes from Alaska, where it is said that prospecting and assessment work can best be done when the ground is frozen. The enactment of this bill will benefit the Alaskan prospectors and claim owners by extending the time in which to do assessment work from December 31 through the winter months of January and February and until the ground thaws out in the spring. It is, therefore, the opinion of your committee that no exception should be made for mining claims To- cated in Alaska but that the opera ation of the laws should be uniform.
 By vafious acts of Congress the annual requirement of $1OO worth of work on unpatented mineral claims was suspended for the calendar years 1917, 1918, and 1919. The act approv- ed December 31, 1920 Public, No. 290), did not relieve the owners of such claims from this requirement but merely extended the time for do- ing the assessment work of 1920 to July 1, 1921. It was distinctly under stood at the time this act wss passed that no further exemptions from as- sessment work would be granted and that, all mining claims on which such work has not been performed vii! be

the building of the Arizona Central railroad in what was then Yavapai county, and the proposed Port Lobos railroad in Pima county are to be threshed out in the courts, according to a conference of the various inter- ests held at Phoenix a few days ago. The original issue of bonds were small
 compared with the total that now has to be met. The bonds were issued and
 sold without the counties realizing any material benefits, the Yavapai railroad being removed to Stockton, California, and the other roads never having been built. The supreme court of Arizona and the supreme court of the United States passed on the vali- ,dity of the bonds and declared part of

yS<SAs
 It is the usual and natural tendency of all persons to postpone doing any thing which must be done in limited time until near the close of the period. For this reason the major portion of the work done on unpatented mining claims under existing law is delayed until the months of November and De- cember, after the weather has become cold in the mountain regions. In the higher attitudes it is often impossible to reach many mining claims in the winter season on account of the heavy snowfall. There has, consequently, been a demand for a change in the period for doing assessment work from the calendar to the fiscal year, so that the last two months will be May and June, when the climatic con ditions are more advantageous. The testimony before your committee shows that this bill has the approval of the great majority of persons en- gagged in'mining and prospecting and

1921. The six months extension of time, however, makes the enactment of the legislation proposed in this bill most opportune. q
 MT. Hayden introduced the follow ing bill; which was referred to the Committee on Mines and Mining and ordered to be printed:
 A BILL Changing the reriod for doing annual assessment work on unpatentei claims from the calendar year to the fiscal year ending June 30 each year. 4 Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the Unit ed States of America in Congress as- sembled, That section 2 of "An Act to amend sections 2324 anl 2325 of the Revised Statutes of the United States concerning mineral lands" ap- proved January 22, 1880, be and the same is hereby, amended to read as follows:
 "Sec. 2. That section 2324| of the Revised Statutes of the United States be amended by adding the following words: Provided, That the period within which the work required to be done annually on all unpatented min eral claims located since May 10, 1872 including such claims in the Territory of Alaska, shall commence on the list day of July succeeding the date of To- cation of such claim: Provided, fur ther, That on all such valid existing claims the annual period ending De- ceanber 31, 1920, shall continue to and include July 1, 1921, and. the annual period to end December 31, 1921, shall continue to and include June 30, 1922 The Indomitable Ego
