The May number of Peterson is
literally crowded with fine engravings
and capitally illustrated stories,
sketches and poems. "Some Curious
Rocks and Waterfalls" by Rodney r..
Waterman, gives an interesting ac-
count OF natures odd freaks, and the
illustrations are admirable. In direct
contrast is capitally illustrated
article, "a Pretty Room ut the Lowest
Cost" which ladies will find inval-
liable. "a Mercenary Young Woman"
is noticeably good story with very
effective illustrations. Agnes James
serial "At The STAR" is concluded,
and Alice Bowman's "Dulce Domum,"
grows moro absorbingly Interesting.
"Convalescence," by the Newport
Hospital Superintendent should be
read by every mother and nurse. We
have by no means exhausted the list
OF attractions-buy the number and

County Official Paper.
THE BAD BOY WANDERS.

We gave place yesterday to a COM
munication from "Peck's Bad Boy"
in which he asserts that 1.-THE Re-
publican party did call for reduction
in salaries, and that as soon as pos
sible;" and that "the Legislative can
didates were pledged before accepting
the nomination to exert themselves to
pass a law reducing salaries to a
reasonable figure as soon as possible"
We do not know whether the Bad
Boy was a delegate to the Republican
County Convention Of 1890 or not, but
We do know that his assertion is not
warranted by the facts in the case, az
we propose to show. The Republi-
cans Of Elko county met in Conven-
ton October 8, 1890, ank after passing
u series Of resolutions offered the fol-
lowing suggestions:
ave are in favor Of consolidating
the following county offices: The
District Attorney and the County
Superintendent of Schools; the Coun-
ty Clerk and the County Treasurer.
"We believe that the following
named officers should receive in full
compensation Of all services rendered
by them, annual salaries which shall
not exceed the following amounts:
The Sheriff, "a 800; County Clerk and
ex-ofticio Treasurer, s2,4OO; the AS
SCISSOR, 3d. 400; the District Attorney
for services as District Attorney and
ex-otticio Superintendent of Schools,
each, S400 and mileage. We believe
that such salaries should be the only
salary or compensation allowed for
any and all services and ex-officio
services of every kind and character
rendered by said officers and their
deputies or assistants"
These recommendations were not in
the form Of resolutions, neither was a
word said as to any immediate re-
duction Of salaries or consolidation of
Offices; and hence no candidate who
Endorsed the platform and resolutions
could have forseen that a reduction
in his salary was intended, as nothing
in the platform intimated anything
Of the kind. AS to the charge that
the legislative candidates we're pledged
"to exert themselves to pass law re-
ducing salaries to reasonable figure
as soon as possible" no such pledge
was demanded or given; and the legis-
lator who commended that the reduc-
ton should not take place until 1895,
was as true to his pledge, 30 far as the
demands Of the Convention were con-
cerned, as any member of the delega-
ton.

The Color of a Book.

brought out this year, says the New
ork sun, has failed to sell because if
had dull-colored cover. 1t was yerv
richly illustrated and elegantly printed.
and, as a further effort to make #
unique, the idea of binding it in leather
was adopted: The booksellers offered
!! 10 thelr lady customers, but the ladies
Listened TO nothing that was said for it,
l hTey brushed 1t aside with the remark.
~ not pretty, or cit will not match
anything in the house, :
Vastly inferior books with splash Of
red ink on the cover, or with Gold Or
silver chasing on the binding, were sold
as last as they could be printed.

A writer in the San Francisco Alta
says: "Apropos of sorrel, it is rightly
estimated when it is pronounced a diff
cult customer. Its presence always in
dicates an excess of oxalic acid in the
soil. Hence in the same field there will
be some spots where it will flourish
much more luxuriantly than others.
An acquaintance of more than thirty
years with the pest has convinced me
that digging and cultivating only tend
to spread and foster the evil. But there
is remedy that in Pennsy vania, Ohio
and Michigan, to my certain knowledge,
has proved efficacious. Take slack lime
and scatter not less than twenty-five
pounds on every square rod, and you
will see the pest vanish as if by magic.
This would be tritie expensive only on
small areas. But when it is taken into
account that the lime will double and
sometimes treble the yield of other
crops, it will be found mitigating cir
cumstance."

Setting Out an Orchard.

To set out an orchard prepare the
ground by deep and thorough blowing
and pulyerization. When ready for
setting the trees, which should be as
early as possible before the buds swell,
mark off the ground with tWo-horse
pillow in deep burrows; rows thlrty 1eet
apart Then set the trees In these 1ur-
rows thirty feet apart. All that is re-
qured in setting a tree is to Level on AT
the proper place. space sufflGlently
large for all the roots to be placed IN on
the same plane and at the proper depth.
Then fill in the soil firmly and level OFT
In this manner if everything is ready
and on hand, two persons may set out
easily 500 two-year-old trees in day
and do the work better than can be
done in any other manner, as 1t does
away with digging holes, which is the
main labor in the old way. This digging
holes deeper than one can pillow, TOR
the tap roots to go down into, is OF no
manner of use, for we know that trees
will grow and do Just as we'll without IT.
We have seen them grow on the SOLD,
undisturbed soil and even on rock and
stones and do as well as in loose SOIL,
under exactly the same conditions. we
would, however, state here that we
have never recommended the plan OF
setting trees on flat stones, but nave
simply given our observation and the
testimony of others. All we have to
say on this subject is that so far as our
experience and observation go, trees do
as well on flat stones, or hard, unmoved
soil as on loose soil, other conditions
being equal; consequently, if this is a
fact, it is unnecessary to spend so much
time and labor in digging deep holes.
We would state here that ever since our
first observation of this fact, about
thirty-five years ago, we have invariably
set all kinds of trees on the hard and
undisturbed soil with uniform success,
scarcely ever losing a tree, and we can
not see that any other person has been
more successful.

Solecisms in Speech.

The railroad brakeman who announces
that This train don't make no stops be-
tween Trenton and Philadelphia" is not
the only offender in this regard. On
the streets, in the shops, and on public
conveyances, the ear is constantly as
sailed by such expressions as "Where
at ?" 81 seen" 81 never did nothing"
or 'He has just went" which would not
be apt to give the intelligent foreigner
an exalted idea of the progress of
of this carelessness of speech comes
from association or from want of
thought; for the very persons who thus
maltreat the English language in their
daily talk will write with all purity and
correctness Nevertheless, reform is
needed. Philadelphia Record,
