OPENING LAKE MINES.
Stockmen Let Go of Claims and De
velopment Begins.
I.akcview It is uw more th.in
two years since the first discoveries of
gol were made in tins section, but
still no mine has been opened up.
Most of the good propects are owned
by sheepmen ami ranchers, who are
not familiar with' minin, and have
held onto their claims, expecting that
some one would make a rich strike
and that they could then dispose ol
their possessions at a big price. Since
this has not been the case, some oi
them are letting go now, and the
properties are passing into the hand
of practical mini";; men. This spring
a number of capitalists and men ot
experience in mining have visited this
scctiot,, and some of them have se
cured cither leases or options on some
of the best cl lims both at New Pine
Creek and at Plush. One of the big
gest deals was consummated a few
days ago, when a group of claims in
the Pine Creek district was leased for
a term of years, and the payment
made was lluui) in cash.
SETTLERS IN HARNEY.
Stock Ranges Are Disappearing Be
fore the Plow.
Pums The recent heavy rains
have insured the farmers and stoek
men l.trnc crop of grain ami im
proved the wild hay crop, which was
almost a failure, owing to the light
snowfall last winter. More people
are farming in this county this year
than ever before. Localities where a
few years ago only cattle grazed are
now occupied by progressive settlers,
who are turning land that had never
produced anything but sagebrush and
bunchgrass into grain fields, orchards
and allalfa meadows.
There has been a heavy immigra
tion to this county during the past
year. Most of the new settlers arc
well pleased with the country, stating
that the laud is better than they ever
expected to tiud open for entry under
the homestead laws.
The lio.iiiio acres held under the
Carey act by William llanlcy. id this
count, and some Portland business
men is being contested by the Pacific
Livestock company in the general
land otlice mi the grounds that the
land sought is not desert land and
will produce crops without irrigation.
If this tr;ict is reopened for settle
ment, it will be the means of increas
ing the population of the county by
several thousand people, besides
bringing under cultivation the best
farm land in Harney valley.

The structure will be .'.0x100 feet in
size, with concrete cellar, and two floors,
with paper lined air sp; c s in the walls,
making the building frost -proof. This
makes four warehouses of this kind at

DRY FARMING IN IDAHO.
Reiumi of Idaho Experiment S'arlo"
Bulletin No. 62.
Ey Elia NUun, IrritfktlonUt.
Ia the western part of Nei Tereei
county and throughout southern Idaho
the precipitation i ima'd and arid
conditions there prevail. Farming
without irrigation in those portions of
the state may therefore te termed dry
i urniinjj.
, In I laho dry farming has been quite
successful with VI inches of annual' pre
cipitation. It is practiced in eastern
Orejj.Mi even with but 9 to 10 indies.
The average annual precipitation for
southern Idaho is U.'JS inches. Pry

With good methods it should be pos I
I , , . . , g
sible to conserve at least one half of
I,. . . , , .
the precipitation to do duty in crop
production. In actual practice not
much more than one fourth is generally
utilized, the three fourths being lost by
surface evaporation or by run off.
The amount of moisture that is ab-
sorbed ly the soil and retained very I
largely determines the yield. Peep'
percolation is therefore to be desired .
and surface cultivation to prevent un-1

be practiced. Peep plowing favors the
storage of water in the soil. Maintain
. ing a dust mulch over the surface tends
to conserve that which the soil has
absorbed. It is important to preserve
this dust blanket over fields by har
rowing aul especially on the summer
fsllow should this be done. That will
prevent the soil below the mulch from
drying out. Leaving the summer fal
low lie rouh during summer allows the
soil to dry out.
With such practices
there is a large loss of moisture and no
particular gain in fertility for the elab
oration of plant food does not take
place in a dry soil.
Hummer fallowing alternate years is
recommended for all localities with less
than 13 inches of annual precipitation.
Where there is more than that it is gen
erally possible to grow a crop every
year. Growing a cultivated crop every
other year is more profitable than a
single crop system. For every year
cropping the plowing should be in the
fall. Per the bare summer fallow the
plowing may be either in the spring or
in the fall. The former has been most
successful in the Columbia basin up
lands, the latter has proven the better
system in Ptah.
With fall plowing the oil settles dur
ing winter and good capillary connec
tion with subsoil is thus ensured,
with spring plowing the lower part of
the furrow slice does not become firm
enough. Packing to close up the air
spaces is therefore au advantage.

In iom localities in southern Idaho'
the profitableness of dry farming is no
matter of doutt, for from 2.1 to 35
bushels of whe;it per acre are produced,
Where yields are small the cost of pro
duction must be greatly reduced to give i
a margin cf profit and operations mint
be on a considerable scale. Fsch man
should handle from 200 to 300 acres.
Py means of co operation among farm
ers traction engines may be employed
and these generally reduce expenses
one half. Where the fanner uses his
own toils sn I team the actual cost of
producing wheat will rsnge from tS to
4 per acre. At contract prices It
would be from 5 to 7.

YOU'RE TOO THIN.

Ifs Stomach C afairh
Some people are thin and alv. tya re
main thin, from temperamental rea
sons. Probably in such cases nothing
can be done to change this personal
peculiarity.
Rut there are a large number of peo
ple who get tnln, or remain thin, who
naturally would bo plump and fleshy
but for some digestive derangement.
Thin peoplo lack in adipono tissue.
Adlposo thuuo ia chiefly composed of
fat.
Fat la derived from the oily constit
uents ot food.
The fat-making fooos are called by
the physiologist, hydrocarbons. This
class of foods are not digested in the
stomach at all. They are digested ia
the duodenum, tho division of the all
mcntary canal Just below the stomach.
The digestion of fat is mainly, if not
wholly, the work of the pancreatio
juice. This Juice Is of alkaline reac
tion, and is rendered inert by the addi
tion of acid. A hyperacidity of the
digestive fluids of tho stomach passing
down into the duodenum, destroys
the pancreatic' fluid for digestive pur
poses, therefore, t lie rats are not di
gested or emulsified, and the system la
deprived of its duo proportion of oily
constituents. Hence, the patient growe
thin.
The beginning of the trouble is a ca
tarrhal condition ot the stomach which
causes hyperacidity of the gastrio
Juices. This hyperacidity is caused by
fermentation ot food in the stomach.
When tho food is taken into the stom
ach, If the process ot digestion doea
not begin immediately, acid fermenta
tion will take place. This creates a
hyperacidity of the atomach juicea
which in their turn prevent the pan
creatio digestion of the oils, and the)
emaciation results.
A dose of Peruna before each meii
hastens the stomach digestion. Ry
hurrying digestion, Peruna prevents
fermentation of the contents of tho
stomach, and tho pancreatic juice is thus
preserved in its normal state. It then
only remains for tho patient to eat a
aufllclent amount of fat-forming foods,
and the thinness disappears and plump
ness takea its place.

Admission slips to tho hospitals are
pretty likely to be mutter-of fact rec

a bit of unconscious humor Is found In

"How so?" finked a friend.
"Why," Raid the ymng father, "you

The
General Demand
of the Well-informed of the World has
always been for a simple, pleasant
and efficient llijuid laxative remedy of
known value; a laxatlvo which physi
cians could sanction for family use
because its component parts are
known to them to be wholesome and
truly beneficial la effect, acceptable
to the system and gsmtle, yet prompt.
In action.
In supplying that demand with Its
excellent combination of Syrup of
Figs and Elixir of Senna, the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co. proceeds along
ethical lines and relies on the merits
of the laxative for Its rema.kable
success.
That Is one of many reasons why
Syrup of Figs and Klixir of Senna Is
given the preference by the Well
informed. To get Its beneficial effects
always buy the genuine manufac
tured by the California Fig Syrup Co.,
only, and for sale by all leading
druggists. Price fifty cents per bottle.
