he pays for ~ pounds of inert oxy-
gen. Therefore. in figuring the item
of relative cost, he should divide
the price per ton of each form, in
Guiding freights, by the respective
number of pounds Of calcium per
ton, as indicated above, and the
quotients will give the price per
pound of the useful content of his
purchase. In this way he can ascer-
tain which form will cost him least
money, or, to present the compari-
son from another standpoint, one
ton of quick lime will go as far in
correcting sourness as 2,642 pounds
of hydrated lime, or $50 pounds
of ground limestone. And one ton
of hydrated lime is equivalent in
neutralizing power to 2l7O2 pounds
of pulverized limestone.
Only by considering all the fore
going factors can the farmer deter
mine which form and what amounts
of lime it will be best for him to use.

Use OF lime ON SOILS.
By T. F. PECK
Commissioner of Agriculture.

We are frequently asked the re-
lative value Of the different forms of
agricultural lime. The following
answers the question in very prac-
tical way.
Seven acres in every ten OF i'm
proved land in the humid sections
of the United States need lime to
produce best crops according to the
best date available from field tests,
farm experience, and soil survey
studies. The wide range In lime
need indicates that each farmer
must regulate the amount OF his ap-
plication to meet the particular re-
ouirernents of his land.
The beneficial effect on practical
" all crops, that results from the
Innings of any soil, but more es-
pecially those that are very sour, or
highly acid, has been so well estab
lished by experiment as well as by

theory that there is no longer any
question as to the importance OF
this practice to every farmer. But
with this fact recognized, there still
remain a number of important prac-
tical questions to be answered with
regard to tie comparative advant
ages, all things considered, of the
various forms in which lime may be
used for soil treatment. In answer
ing these questions, a number OF
points need to be considered: and
the farmer who wishes TO get the
best results from his investment i'll
lining, will need to answer these
questions in the light of his own sit
uation and needs, remembering that
what might be true in one set OF
circumstances, might be the reverse
under different conditions.
First, it should be remembered
that the purpose of the lime is to
sweeten sour soils, or, in other
words, to neutraIize the acids that
develop in the soil and cause its
sourness. The amount of lime APP
piled is relatively so small that it
exercises very little, if any, appre-
ciable influence on the texture OF
soils. The less we'll drained and the
less porous the soils, the greater
their acidity, and consequently the
greater their need for lime. For
this reason such soils require either
larger or more frequent applications
Second, since the sweetening eff
feet of the lime depends on a chem
ical reaction between the lime and
the acid, the rapidity and extent of
the result may be influenced by the
physical and the chemical form of
the lime used. The finer it is pull
verified. the more rapid it's action,
which may be, according to condi'
tions, either an advantage or dis
advantage For immediate needs, it
is an advantage; but any excess left
for future utilization by the soil, is
more'rapidly leached out and lost.
! Quick, or unslacked lime and slack
ed, or hydrated, lime act much
more rapidly than the pulverized
limestone, but they are more caus-
tic, and the former is very disagree
able to handle and apply; while
any excess of either form that is not
Immediately used in neutralizing
acid in the soil, very quickly reverts
to the form of carbonate of lime,
which is that of the pulverized lime
stone, and is no more available than
the latter, except for its finer physi
cal state, which causes it to leach
out more rapidly.
Finally, as the only available sub
stance for the sweetening of the soil
is the amount of calcium that exists
in combination with oxygena car
bon dioxide, or water, in the DIFF
ferent forms in which the lime is
put on the market, it is important
to bear in mind the following facts:
One Ton of pulverized limestone
contains 800 pounds calcium; one
ton of quick lime contains 1,428
pounds calcium; one ton of dry
Stacked, or hydrated, lime contains
1904 pounds calcium. In other
words: when the farmer buys pull
verified limestone he pays in first
cost and freight for 1000 pounds of
oxygen and carbon dioxide that are
of no use to him in sweetening his
soil. When he buys, hydrated lime
he pays for 919 pounds of oxygen
and water that are inert for his pur-

CHRISTMAS AT ST. PAUL'S

St. Paul's Island, the remote seal cookery of the Pribilof group, is going to have a real old Christmas this year, with a Christmas tree n every thing, in spite of the fact that there isn't tree of any kind growing on the island The steamer Starr, which recently took winter cargo to the far-off haunt of the seal-skin coat farm, numbered among it's consignments small but stately spruce tree, ad- dressed to Operator Edge of the radio station. The spruce is, as you might say, bit of presufficious in it's arrival, Christmas being still some distance away. But no chances were going 10 be taken this year in the matter of Christmas tree, and boats to the Pribilofs being few and far between, the authorities took time and tide by the forelock and had the tree shipped so that it would be certain to be there when old Saint Nick comes jingling along through the ether with his rein deer about December 25.

not until the government lets loose There will be other good discoveries though I don't think there will be anything as big as the Treadwell in quartz or as big as the Klondike and Nome fields in placer. The history of precious minerals bears me out in this statement. The world to date has produced only two great mines of the Treadwell type, the other being the Homestake at Lead, s, D.

PACK BURRO PLUNGES
 INTO DEEP CANYON

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 2.-Balaam's s Ass, whatever he did to make himself famous, has nothing on the pack burro who plunged 200 feet into the Big Anita canyon the other day.
 The Steve Brodie of Donkeydom, ac- cording to Guy Rutherford, in charge of the Monrovia pack train, took fright at rattlesnake and jumped over the steep side of the canyon, falling 200 feet, and lodged in the thick under brush on his back. Members of the gang worked several hours on the lit tie animal, after which he wiggled his ears and continued the march when placed on his feet.

FIX ALASKAN
 TELLSTR0UBLES OF NORTHLAND

M J. O'Connor, former resident of Douglas who visited there lately from his home in Bellingham, was inter, viewed by the Daily Herald of that city on his return and, while he has proper estimate of conditions here, says the Stroller's Weekly, he seems to lay too much blame on the For P estry Department which, in the opin- ion of the majority of Alaskans, is one of the few departments that is really operated with the view of aiding the Territory in the matter of substantial development. The interview in the Bellingham paper follows:
 Answering the question, What is the matter with Alaskan" M J. O'Con- nor, Elk street grocer and for twenty years a resident of that territory, who has just returned from one of his an- nual trips to Juneau, Douglas and neighboring towns, declares that it is too much governmental regulation and red tape. After declaring that most of Alaska is a forest reserve, he says that if he had his way he would place the forestry officials on scow, push them into the stream and send them to Washington, D. c.
 "This question:" said MT. O'Connor, 'has been answered in various ways by various people. By some who should know something of Alaska's s troubles and by some who have only viewed Alaska from the deck of a steamer The latter-not all of them, of course, but big percentage of them-go back to their respective >homes and presume to speak for the remnant of trailblazers who still cling to what is left of that great land, after the numerous departments of the government have satisfied them selves that they have securely hemmed in by governmental regulations, re- strictions and red tape all that was worth having.
 RED MEN MAY BE HEIR
 To-day everything is conserved in Alaska but one product-namely fish the only product that could be de- stroyed and that is being destroyed. The water power, the forests, the coal lands, the oil lands--all conserved for future generations. All conserved for the remnant of great race-the noble redman. It looks very much now as though he would fall heir to that great territory. The timber has grown

1 old and is dying, but the prospector and pioneer, who have blazed the trails, are not permitted to use a stick of it without consulting the forestry department The water rower that has rushed down the mountain sides since the creation of the world and was intended by the Creator for mans use and benefit must still run on it's course on account of governmental re- strictions Any rational human being knows that the only way you can waste water is not to use it. @
 "The coal of Alaska has been great ly overrated The outcroppings and vein matter cover an immense terri tory, but the veins are broken and ir- regular, and 1t is much mooted ques- tion as to whether they will ever amount to much commercially. The oil lands are yet an unknown quan- tity. Three of the biggest oil compan- ies in the world have gone to Alaska this summer thoroughly equipped to determine whether or not Alaska will prove as rich in oil as it has in pre- cious metals. ..-.
 TOO MANY RESTRICTIONS
 "A few days ago I read an article in the P.-I. by MT. Ballaine answering the question, What is the matter with Alaskan He laid all of Alaska's trou- bles to high freight rates. l do not agree with him. I do not deny that the freight rates are too high, but they have kept neither men nor money out of Alaska. These are what Alas ka needs today-men and money but neither will be attarcted there under existing government restric- tions.
 My remedy for Alaskas ills? Most all of Alaska today is a forest reserve. I would take all the forest officers in with the Chinese in the early days put them on a scow, tow them out in the stream, tag them for Washington, D. C., and wish them Godspeed. would throw all of Alaska open to settlement and location, oil lands, coal lands, water power. Give any man that wants to settle in Alaska hunk if it. After giving a piece of it to all who agree to live there, there would still be two or three hundred million acres left for future generations.
 UP TO ALAskANS
 "The high freight rates can be ad- justed by Alaskans, but all other mat ters must be settled at Washington the fountainhead of the government. When I lived in Douglas we had no trouble with freight rates. The mer- chants of my town supported an inde- pendent steamer, keeping rates always where they belonged, and I have little sympathy for Alaskans today if they are standing unjust rates.
