JUNCTION CRY. April s. 1864


EDl1ons USroS-I notice a very laudable effor;
being made in this portion Of the State to set out
various kinds of fruit trees. And for the bened,
of persons not well acquainted with our climate
wish to give my experience in growing trees.
The trees selected should be those grown in
this locality if possible. and should be allowed
TO branch out near the ground. Where it can be
done, they should be set out on either the high
prairie OF on the second bottom, and on a clay
subsoiI, as the low sandy land becomes too dry
and warm for them.
There are various other suggestions, such as
properly preparing the land, digging the hole,
pruning the top so that there may be proper
action between the top and the source of noursh-
ing support, &c. which cannot dwell on. but
one thing is an Indispensable to life and success.
and that is that each tree is we'll mulched with
straw or hay for at least four or five feet ali
around it. Without this You will not save one
tree in ten in three years, unless the seasons are
different from those Of the past eight years
With this mulching to aid the tree to moisture
through tie dry portions of the year, every farmer
may soon have fruit plenty and to spare. but il
some such course is not pursued would not pay
= man Eve dollars to set out thousand trees for
me. ed. HOUSTON.

have some weight throughout The State in that

personal fight, engendered by Anthony's un-

Tho LIQUOR Law Constitutional.


We find the following In the Lawrence
Tribune:
1t may be remembered case last year
was tried before Judge Stafford, wherein the
State was plaintiff, and certain saloon keep.
ers in Topeka were defendants. Judge SAT-
ford decided in this case that the provision
contained in section fifteen, referred te
above, was unconstitutional, being in VIC
ation of article second, section seventeen
of our State Constitution which reads:
"All laws Of general nature shall have
a uniform operation throughout the State
and in all cases where general law can be
made applicable, no special law shall be
enacted"
This decision of Judge Stafford was ex.
cep,ed to, aud the case taken to the Supreme
Court. The Supreme Court, at its late ses.
sion, reversed the decision of Judge Stafford
in this case.
We are informed that the Supreme Cour,
based their decision on the ground that this
liquor law, being in force before the Con.
sti,ution came into effect, the provision OF
the Constitution did not do away with the
provision of section fifteen, or control said
provision. That is, that laws in force, un
repealed at the time the Constitution took
effect, even though conflicting with the pro.
visions of the Constitution, may still be and
are valid, the Constitution not being retro
spective. This decision OF our highest ju
dicatory leaves the law in force, just as it
stands in our statute book, with section
fifteen in force, exemptiag our city and
others having a population Of over one
thousand from the provisions contained in
the said act.
