RECENT DECISION OF JuDoE Be

RECENT DECISION OF JUDGE BOISE.
The recent decision of Judge Boise in
relation to the State Warrants, on
which the petition for mandamus was
presented, has called forth considerable
criticism. a writer in the Ore3os.ian,
under the signature of 81. n. D., :, goes
after the Judge sharply, and offers the
best argument We have yet read against
the decision. We have only room for the
two concluding paragraphs Of his COM
munication they contain, however, the
gist of his argument: 540 s4asi s.IT
Now Judge Boise, il seerns plain. has erred in
this, viz: lie has mistaken the expression, = n
cases where provisions have been made by Ia W for
payment" for appropridtions by che Legislatnrs,
setting apart fund for expensesl for which pro-
Uisions have alreadybeen madc by Law ). thus. in
my Judgment, confounding two widely different
things. tt=sAst s5E4a
To state tho case somewhat differently, pro-
vision is made by law for the payment of salaries
and other expenses when the laws creating the
ohices, fixing the salaries and providing for the
ineurrence of expenses, are enacted. Judge Boise
has, in my judgment, erred in confounding this
matter with that of appropriations, when the two
are entirely distinct. z8#tlt

Making the Root Crop q Certainty.

a.days, ard when used, not sufficiently.
Fine the laad for twenty inches or more.
II all this depth is mellow yet compact
somew hat, draining Itself resdily, yet ad-
hitting the air. and II the crop Is put out
early--as early as possibl,---so rs to get
the stat of the pfoSpe ctive drought OF
midsummer; If weeds are kept out and the
soil in good motion, stirring it well and
often; ii, withal, the land isrich and nott0o
direct in the sun--not on south hillside,
but a north rather--if all thee things are
rigidly seen to- there will not, there can
not be failure Of good crop A severe
drought will not prevent IL, nor rainy
ason the cool fall will perfect what the
summer advanced The great depth OF
soil is good for the moisture, where the
roots have chance To pen trate and luxu-
rate even with raging sun overhead.
But the land wants To he rifle, and II tho
manure is put down il will not hurt IL for
that crop; the roots will find IL, and the
work will go on with vigor The manure
should be spread and permitted To lie for
The soil Immediately below will then have
received much OF its stree 9Th, and when it
goes under, soil and ma ure are both rich,
and will form a good bed tor the roots.
The best success ever saw was field

was a great drous ht, but In the fall II push

things that are neglected We use ma-

soil sufficiently, through It's juices first and

but let il be rotted aud made mellow by
after plo ing and cultvaling. This last
has been among our best experiences.
We can then secure root crop with
certainty. Why not do itf Why run
risksy We know what they are; in too
many cases they are q loss, and this no one
can afford. for the loss 10 not common

labor to it, judiciously, and this loss will
be avoided in its place will be crop that
will pay for all, with fair margin TO boot;
and such a crop, whcre the drought 10
fought, is more nutritious than where wa

Juice has been poured off, in a cloth or

Put the Juice back in the tub after cleans
ing it, where it should remain about three
days, until the first stage OF ferme nta
ton is over, and removing once or twice

thirty pounds of sugar will give you ten
