.'A Busy Woman is Mrs. Pinkham. Her great correspondence is under her own super vision. Every woman on this continent should un derstand that she can write freely to Mrs. Pinkham about her phy sical condition because Mrs. Pinkham is A Woman and because Mrs. Pink. ham never violates con fidence and because she knows more about the ills of women than any other person in this country. Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has cured a million sick women. Every neigh- oornooa, almost every 'amily, contains women relieved of pain by this great medicine.

The mine owned bv th War Easl Consolidated Mining Company on Shaw's mountain art growing better and better aa development prog re!, says the Boise Statesman. The Mc Carthy property ia now producing tome very rich ore, specimens ahowlng gold in Urge quantities. In the Paymaster, after tollowini the ore ehnte some 800 (wt, the man agement determined to open atopea preparatory to starting the mill. Five upraises were started for this purpose and in every one ot them the vein is far better than in the level It is about six feet wi.le, and there is fonr and a half feet ot ore that runs close to 10 a ton. Altogether the outlook for this group is most encouraging. All that was ex pected was to open a good prooertv. but it now looks as though it would turn out to be a bonaou. Work on the concentrating mill is progressing rapidly and it is hoped to nave the plant ready to run by the Fourth of July. It will be a novel sight to see that mill in operation. There is no other plant like it in the West Ordinary chimney soot is an excellent fertiliser and should be careully saved. That from coal is superior to that from wood, it contains nitrogen, and is beneficial to all crops. It is disliked by some insects, and is used as a pre ventive of their attacks, for which pur pose it may be more profitably applied owing to the small quantity produced prohibiting its use extensively as a fer tilizer. .

Ripe timothv hay is the heaviest, about 400 cnbio feet, well packed, being eetimatetd as weighing a ton. If cut when in blossom a ton will take up about 480 cubic feet. Mixed with clover a ton will vary from 450 to 500 cubic feet. Clover hay re quires about 650 cubic feet to a ton. Of pea vine hay about 800 cubio feet make a ton. About 700 cubio feet of meadow hay is the estimate for a ton. Tdom estimates are not strictly reli , able, however, as something depends upon bow closely the hay is pressed in the stack or mow. Iraa Djk Sold. The famous Iron Dvke mine, on Snake river, has been sold for $85,000, says the Cuprum. Idaho. Standard. Mr. Charles M. Eeed, of Erie, Pa., was the purchaser. The debts of the former owners of this mine, the North west Copper Company, amounted to about 165,000, which' leaves f 20.000 above the indebtedness. This insures the payment of all ths company owes. and will place several thousand dollars in circulation here. Mr. Reed is very wealthy, and now that he has gotten the other members out of the company will no doubt prosecute development work as rapidly as possible. 1 Buffalo Bump. Charles Sweeney and bis associatbi have returned from Buffalo Hump, where they have been inspecting thei properties, says the Lewiston, Idaho, Tribune. They were, highly pleased with the conditions there and will soon have big operations in progress. The shaft on the Big Buffalo is being sunk at the rate of from two to three feet per day, three shifts being at work lhe saw mill is cutting 10.000 feet of lumber per day and the 10-stamp mill win be ready for operation in SO days Struck It Rich.

The ground cannot be made too rich for gooseberries and currants, and any extra attention given them the first year will have its effect for years after, as a good start is an advantage.

In boiling meat for soup put cold water to it and let it come slowly to a simmer to extract the juice. If meat is boiled for itself alone pnt it into boiling water, which causes the outer surface to contract and the richness of the meat is retained within.

Buyers are contracting for this year's hops at 10 cents, says the Taooma Ledger. In the Yakima districts buy ers are offering to make contracts at 9 and 10 cents. Not many contracts have been signed at these figures. Country millers in Eastern Washing ton have been receiving communica tions warning them that a movement was going fowrard to form a flour trust in Washington and Oregon, and urging them to attend a meeting in Spoakne. with a view to organizing for the pur pose of dealing with the alleged trust. C. S. Farrow, of Eugene. Or., has invented a sidewalk nail which is driven into the sides of the boards in stead of the top.
