Ripe timothy hay is the heaviest, about .400 cnbio feet, well packed, being etimatetd as weighing ton. If cnt when in blossom a ton will take up alxrat 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 cubie feet make a ton. About 700 cubio feet of meadow hay is the estimate for a ton. These estimates are not . strictly reli able, however, as something depends upon how closely the hay is pressed in the stack or mow. .. . Mothers will find Mr?. Winslow's Sooth ing Hvrup the best remedy to nse for the" Children during the teething period. 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 year after, as a good start is an advantage. Plant in rows four feet apart, cultivate thoroughly, and then mulch. Cutting out the old wood should not be over looked. It is not difficult to get large yields of fruit when the soil is rich and the cultivation is thoiough. . n boiling meat for soup put cold water to it and let it coma slowly to a simmer to extract the juice.

The mines owned by the War Eagle Consolidated - Mining Company on Shaw's mountain are growing better and better as development progresses, says the Boise Statesman. The Mc Carthy property is now producing some very rich ore; specimens showing gold in large quantities. In the Paymaster, alter following the ore chute some 800 feet, the man agement determined to open stopes preparatory to starting the mill; Five upraises were started for this purpose and in every one of them the vein is far better than in the level. It is about six feet wide, and there is four and a half foet of ore that runs close to 1 10 a ton. Altogether the outlook for this group is most encouraging. All that was ex pected was to open a good property. but it now looks as though it would turn out to be a bonansa. Work on the concentrating mill is progressing rapidly and it is hoped to have 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. V .':'' J Iron Dyke Bold. The famous Iron Dyke mine, on Snake river, has been sold for 135,000, says the Cuprum, Idaho, Standard. Mr. Charles M. Reed, 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 $30,000 above the indebtedness. This insures the payment of all the 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. Buffalo Hump. Charles Sweeney and his associates have returned from Buffalo Hump, where they have been inspecting their 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. The saw mill is cutting 10.000 feet of lumber per day and the 10-stamp mill will be ready for operation in SO days Struck tt Rich.

Five thousand or more young salmon were turned, into toe uoqui lie river last Thursday, by R. D. Hume. The oyster experimental station at Keyport, Wash., is completed, and the oysters planted there are doing well. Three inches of snow covered the ground in the Axe Handle district, 16 miles from Anteleope, Or., last week. The Lakeview, Or., United States land office has received supplies to re place those destroyed by the recent fire, and has opened up for business.

The Dnfur Dispatch says three cases of smallpox aie reported in Wapinita, Wash., and it is said quite a number have been exposed to the disease. ; Insurance adjusters are flocking to Lakeview like bees, says the Rustler, as $85,000 loss among the various com panies calls their attention to the fact that there was a fire in Lakeview. The steamer Bismarck, which bad been moored at Coquille City, Or., for several months, filled with water and sank last week. She was probably snagged. The boat was built in Port land in 1892. Buyers are contracting for this year's hops at 10 cents, says the Tacoma Ledger. In the Yakima districts buy ers are offering to make contracts at 9 and 10 cents, ix'ot many contracts have been signed at these figures. 1 . Country millers in Eastern Washing' ton. have been receiving communica tions warning them that 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. Ci 8. Farrow." of Eugene, Or., has invented a sidewalk nail, which is driven into the sides of the boards in stead of the top. He claims it keeps the boards from getting loose, and at the same time prevents shoes and dresses from being torn by projecting nails. ' M. J.

Rmdstreet'i says: Readjustment of price quotations to meet the changed condition of supply and demand are still the leading features of the general trade. In volume the business doing is of a betweenaoaon character, im provement in some lines being counter balanced by Increased dullness in other branches. ' That the basic conditions of the trade are in the main of a favorable nature, however, is proved by the con- tiniiail nrtnA ft1mt a.vntnp. Vetlima wuiun cvmu w aituu. ju taut .wwnia to be that the volume of business offer ed the transportation interest of the country continues considerably in ex cess of a year ago. Crop reports are relatively most favorable as regard corn and oats. In the Southwest, wheat crop prospects are still main tained at a high average. In the Northwest wheat has been helped by late rains, but owing to their late ar rival it is not certain how much .bene fit was obtained thereby. The hand-to-mouth domestio demand for iron and steel continues, but the number of small orders received Southern pig and steel rails note most inquiry. The situation in the pipe market is no better, and plates are weaker. Concessions of fractions of a dollar are apparently easily obtained for pig iron, but throughout the trade the feeling Is rather more cheerful, the feeling being that lower prices will on the one baud encourage consumptive demands, and, on the other hand, tend to restrict production by less economi cal plants. Business faiures for the week in the United States number 135, as coin oh red with 16? last week. PACIFIC COAST TRADE. "'' ' Brattle Markota. Onions, old, 7c; new, 2o. . Lettuce, hothouse, 25c do.

THROW DICE FOR PUNISHMENT. Two Boldlera ta the Philippine. Vae the Bone to 8ca Who la to Buffer. "I was in the Philippines about thre month ago," aald the Chicago agent of a well-known tea house, "and saw th queerest throw of dice I ever saw la my life. Two soldier bad been court-martialed for getting drunk and assaulting their superior officer about the gravest offense a subordinate can commit Be ing after dark, the officer didu't know which one It was. Neither did they, nor much of anything else that happened about that time. But the court insisted that for the sake of discipline one of them must be punished. It was hard Hue. For they were really not bad young fellow and everybody was sorry for them. Each wa willing to take the penalty and let the other on off. But that wouldn't do, so It was finally agreed that they should throw the die for It "The first one that took them shook them hard and turned them out Fir and two! The second man followed ult HI were Are and two. Then the first poured out a six and five. Six and five came out for the other. You should have just heard the shout and bets. Then the first oue threw again. Two and three! And two and three showed up for the" second soldier. This waa getting Interesting.' 'Ace!' said the first 'Aces!' cried the second. The ex citement wa tremendous. Everybody crowded Into the room anxlou to get a sight at the miraculous performance. "They all held their breath. The sol dlor whose throw It was gave the bone an extra shake. Out tumbled four and three. The second on pounded and hook enough to have worn the spot off of 'em. No use. Three and fourl The Devil's in 'em.' 'I can't get used to that gamer They're loaded all around,' exclaimed the crowd." Here the tea agent paused and rose to go away. "But how did they come out finally T" everybody asked, wrought up to lnten est curiosity." "Oh, out of the box. I s'pose, like they did before," calmly explained the agent "You see, the steamer for Hono lulu was whistling for the last time and I had to come away before the thing was settled. They may be at It yet for all I know." Chicago Chronicle.

I have traveled much and I have seen much; I have mixed much in politic, and beside all this, I have published somewhere about sixty volumes. And yet what time do yon thing, a a gen eral rule, I have devoted to study, to reading and writing? Not more than three hour a day.
