NOTES FROM THE DIAMOND.

Pitcher Jack Keenan, has been released by the
Seattle club, not from any lack of ability but
because there IL no chance for him with such
large corps of pitchers. With some other team
he win have a chance to do regular work
which he would not have here 1t is quite
probable that he will 60 to the Walla Walla
club, of the Pacific Interstate League, which
has made him offer OF as much money
as he drew with Seattle. There is also a chance
of his going 20 Tacoma
Awhatcom paper says OF Ed o'Neil, late az
the Seattle team: "Pitcher o'Neil, the man who
paralyzes fence posts, knocks down grand stands
and discounts the time of cannon calls, is now a
genial tender OF liquids. O'Neil is without doubt
one Of the swiftest surest and best ball singers
In the universe, and when he tears loose the
crowd scattsrs.''
All of the Seattle teams pitchers were taken
TO Portland except Crowell, who was left be-
hind to get in condition. Manager Powelrs
idea Is to pitch Camp in two OF the four games
and LANCE and Mattimore in one each

PRESERVATION OF FERTILITY.
Don't Exhaust the Soil TIL 1t II Neces
sary to Use Drugs.
rlas Mofues Farm Jouruaf

Des Moines Farm Journal.
Eastern and Southern experiment sta
tons are largely occupied with questions
pertaining to commercial fertilizers and
the supplying by chemical means of those
essential elements in the soil that have
been withdrawn by generations of soil
robbers who have either ignorantly or
recklessly stolen from their farms the
fertility that must now be artifcially re-
placed. The stations referred to doubt
less address themselves to the problems of
chiefest importance TO their own agricul-
tural interests in doing this, and in this
they are right, but We hope the day is
far distant when the West will regard
commercial fertilizers as a question of
leading importance. When soil or a man
is sick it is doubtless the best and perhaps
the only thing to do TO drug the patient,
but preservation of health is much prefer
able, and it is possible to preserve the
health of the soil in the West with clover
ana stock feeding for many years to come
In the progress of civilization intensive
farming and Its handmade, commercial
fertilizers, become necessary, it is thought.
1t has hitherto been so in most countries,
but the experience has always been pre-
coded by a lavish wastefulness in natural
fertility without much effort to restore it
by natural methods. 1t may be that arti-
fetal fertilizers must come eventually in
every country, or it may be that wise and
prudent conservation and restoration will
avoid the necessity entirely: in any event
it will postpone it. Let us hope that the
West will not learn the lesson of wisdom
and prudence too late, but from the ex-
perience of other WORKOUT sections learn
that prevention is better and cheaper than
cure. Glover culture and the feeding of
everything grown on the farm, with its
subsequent return 20 the soil through the
well-cared-for manure pile, are the best
hygienic measures for the preservation of
the health and vigor of the soil. No
manurial drug can equal the humus of a
clover sod turned under, and no 'com-
plete fertilizer" is half so complete and
effective as well rotted barn-yard manure
whose more volatile elements have been
preserved from escape into the atmosphere.

EFFECT OF The VOICE.
It Can impress or Inspire to CheerfulneSs
by Its Tones Alone.

Il Can impress or Inspire to CheerfulnesS
by Its Tones Alone.
Probably no one can fully estimate
how much influence he Is constantly ex-
erting through his tones OF voice.
Nothing is so powerful to cheer the
dropping energies of a discouraged
group as the inspiring tones of hope in
the words of a new arrival. Who has
not seen the immediate effect Of glad
and sprightly voice breaking in upon a
dull and uninterested party of people?
How their eyes brighten, and their
brows clear, and their forms become
erect, says the New York Ledger. On
the other hand, let a solemn, or doleful,
or fretful voice break in on a gay and
cheerful company, and how quickly the
smile dies on the lip, and the depress-
ing influence goes round. The infant
who can not understand q word that his
mother says is soothed and pleased, or
grieved and frightened by her tones,
and the seeds thus sown of. love and
gentleness, or of harshness and impa-
thence, are sure to bear fruit in his later
development, and exert strong influ-
ence in mellowing his future character,
and preparing it to contend the better
with the rouGhness of the world.
Locust Plague In Australia.
Accounts of the locust plague in Aus
tralia are still most dismal, except in
Adelaide, where the locusts have been
good enough to drown themselves in
myriads. The sea-shore of Adelaide at
last reports was lined with the drowned
locusts. At Minyip, however, the ar
rival of an immense column from the
north was seriously alarming the in
habitants. The atmosphere presented
the appearance of n snow-storm; the
roads and fences were covered to a
depth of three inches or four inches
with solid mass of locusts. The gar
dens were quickly denuded of vegeta-
ton and all heritage was fast disappear
ing before the pest. The caterpillar
plague is also causing the Australian
colonists serious anxiety. Failures
among agriculturalists is attributed to
these pests; and no wonder, when as
much as six hundred pounds sterling is
said to be the loss of one farmer alone
through the destruction of his barley
crop by the caterpillar.

Some National characteristics.

A foreign writer has been at pains to
give category of the points of differ
ence between the typical women of the
three leading nationalities, 1t is not
recommended as an infallible one, but
it certainly is interesting. "a French
woman loves to the end of her honey
moon, the English woman her whole
life, the German woman forever. The
French woman takes her daughter to
the ball, the English woman takes her
to church, the German woman gives her
employment in the kitchen. The French
woman has spirit and imagination, the
English woman has little taste, the Ger
man woman modesty. The French
woman chats, the English woman
speaks, the German woman renders de-
cisions. The Spanish woman kills her
lover in jealousy, the French woman
her rival, the German woman simply re-
nounces, but all at some time marry
some one else"

The Indiana Gratitude,

You have heard Of the never-dying
gratitude of the Indian. writes Teresa
II. Dean in the Chicago Herald,-of how
they never forget favor. Well, they
never do forget a favor. If one is
unfortunate enough to give one of them
n cigarette-if they love nothing else
they love cigarettes-in the morning,
from that time until the sun sets he re-
turns every half hour for more. He not
only comes back himself, but he brings
with him oil the other members of the
misjudged tribe that chance to be in the
neighborbood. AS beggars they are
most supreme. The pride that their
admirers trot out as symbolic of their
nobility never interferes with their
pleading for pennies, niclsels, dimes, to-
bacco or any thing else. And pride
never causes them to hesitate in help
ing themselves If their entreaties are
ignored.

Indian Conscience,

A Pacific coast paper records the fol-
lowing illustration of Indian conscience:
Billy Chinook died recently Mt Warm
Springs. When he joined the United
Presbyterian church few years ago he
had three wives. OF course that would
not do for q church member and he had
to give two of them up. Which one he
should keep was serious matter. One
had child, one had no sense, and the
third he loved best She was childless.
Out Of sense of duty he kept tho one
with the child, and the one he loved
best was married to another man,
which he said was pretty hard to bear.
The one without any sense he kept and
Sunported for help to Lis vile.
