The factory was running s hont- handed the first of the week, about 22 men being off work, many with severe colds. The shortage of men, is also reported among those who are tying to secure additional labor for the camps, but common labor is scarce owing in a measure to the railroad construction work wic is taking an unusually large number of men this season.

We wish to extend our thanks to the friends and neighbors who ren- dered us such kindly sympathy and aid during the illness and death of | our dear little daughter, —Mr. and Mrs. Louis Dorholt. How to Use Dynamite. Dynamite gives the best results when placed directly underneath the center of the stump as far below the bottom of the stump as the stump is inches wide in diameter. If the dyna- mite is placed in too shallow a hole of the explosion wfll pass of into the aiy without lifting the pieces out. Placed deep in the ground it gets under the roots and has the stump started out oft he ground before split- ting it. For making the holes under the stumps there are a pumber of tools that may be used separately or in combination—the auger, bar post-hole diger amd spade. For a soil where there are no stones the auger gives best result. The auger used is a two-imch carpenter's auger, with a shank lengthened to five feet, the other tools may be used to advantage! under various conditions. In placing the dynamite under the stump jit should be placed as nearl under the center as possible. By splitting the paper on the cartridges they may be compressed at the bot- tom of the hole and in this way bet ter centered. When more than three cartridges ane used it may be neces- sary to blow what is known as a pock~ et under the stump. Thisis done by exploding about one-fourth of astick j of dynamite in the bottom of the hole, In, a sandy soil more dynamite is required than in a clay soil, Dyna- mite gives better results in a damp or wet soil than where the soil is dry. The more firmly the earth is compressed and tramped over, the better the result. When a charge fails to go off don’t investigate until the next week. There are generally plenty of other stumps to work on. A. J. MeGUIRE. | Dew Fancy Work tor Winter Evenings A large assortment of things in fancy work are arriving for the winter evenings’ work.

The work which should give bet- tr reesults by doing it now pertains to tilling and fertilizing. There are undoubtedly more arguments and dis s-atiors upo2 kids ard me h-ds of ti ling and fertilizing than all other phases of agriculture. This fact alome should tell us something about their | Significance, A garden soil should be highly pro ductive, and the essential condition under which such may be obtained is: “Abundant and deep incorporation of organic matter.” Such conditions make soil with great productive ca- pacity and a ‘soil with great endur- ance. And this leads us to the objects of fall plowing. 1, To develop and maintain a large effective depth of soil. 2. To better the structural condi- tions. 3. ‘To destroy insects, The development of a deep sol mts* pe slow. That is, we cannot break up too much of the heavy subsoil at one } time, for the subsoil contains no fer- | tility or food for the plant; hence, by bringing a great amount of this un- | fertile soil to the surface, the pro- ductive capacity is lessened. Cn the other hand, if the garden has been) thorovghly tilled to a depth of 5 \inches, add another inch to the depth jof 5 inches, add another inch! to the; depth this fall. In plowing, this: sub- soil is brought to the surface where it receives the action of freezing and thawing, wind and rain amd other weathering agents which disintegrate soil which is readily mixed with the fertile soil bY spring tillage. By improving structural conditions, We mean to make the soil particles smaller, thereby increasing the capa- city of soil for holding moisture and enlarging the area over which the roots wander for food. Many insects go into a form so that they can, easily spend their win- ter in the ground. By late fall plow- ing a great many of these hibernat- ing larvae ate brought to the sur- jface where the freezing and thawing | will kill them. After they have been brought to the surface they cannot return, for they are seemingly life- less and) have no means of burrow- ing a way back. jand old gardens having a heayy soil. \If the garden is a light soil and in a location where rains wash of the surface, the above methods should not. be applied. The methods of fertilizing will be taken up later. MORE PRIZES FOR THE NORTHWEST $200 Silver Trophy Cup Will be Given For Best Bushels of Potatoes. L. W.
