NUT TREES.
Plant the Nuts, and the Trees VIII Grow
After Awhile.

After Awhile.
The age at which any nut trees come
into bearing depends on the care gwen
to the trees Some authorities state that
Is or 20 years are necessary to BRING
them into full bearing from the time
the nut is planted. This is mistake
as trees that have been well cared Tor
should bear a bushel Of nuts in ten years,
and the quantity will increase rapidly
each year after that time.
Some persons may enjoy raising these
trees from seed. To be sure 1t Is rather
a slow process, but it is interesting
work. When planting the nuts, II they
have thin shells be perfectly sure that
they have not dried out at all. Ihe best
plan is to get them as soon as they rlpeh
and plant them at once. When this is
not possible, keep them in moist sand or
in sawdust until they can be started.
Butternuts, walnuts, hickory nuts ana
filberts, being hard shelled, will keep III
growing condition much longer, pu'
should be planted in the fall, as they
terminate better when allowed to Iree2e'
as that cracks the shell.
The fall planting is natures own
plan, and the nearer we follow her ways
the better results we may expect. An
other thing, do not plant the nuts deep.
Nature drops them on the surface ana
gives them thick covering OF leaves III
which the dirt catches as it blows about,
then the snow covers all and helps the
leaves to decay and form covering o.

1t is not practicable for any of US to
try to raise all these kinds Of nuts, but
select the ones most likely to succeed i'll
our climate, and by proper care and at

not reap the benefit Of our labors, but

A GREAT ADVOCATE
Good Stories of George Wood, "a Lawyer
of Many Years Ago.

NJ 4'aH'y ASSsAs ago.
There are still some members of tho
New York bar who remember George
Wood, the contemporary of Daniel
Lord, Ogden Hoffman, William Kent.
James T. Brady and other distinguish
ed lawyers Of many years ago The ven
cradle Benjamin D. Silliman has de-
scribed George Wood as being conspic-
uous for his great learning, his wonder
full power i'll stating his cases and his
mathematical power il argument. He
was a great advocate Frederic &. COu-
dert some time ago told the following
story Of Mr.. Wood: Il can remember,
looking back to early bOyhOOd, that ven
cradle figure and recall speaking to one
of his contemporaries about him. The
person to whom l spoke said, yes. a
client of mine got an opinion from
George Wood once. Well, l said,
how was it done, how much did he
charger for even in those early days
the professional instinct asserted itself.
Il will tell you, my friend replied.
MY client went to him and said "Mr.
Wood, I would like to have your opin-
ion on these papers. - ''Give me the pa
pers and come back tomorrow" said the
great lawyer. The papers were produced
and the client departed. The next day
he presented himself before Mr.. Wood,
and the latter said, "Fifty dollars, "
and nothing more. The client was in
telligent and assumed that he should
pay him that sum, which he did. After
waiting awhile he asked, "What about
my papers, Mr.. Wood?'' 'They are not
worth dr. replied Mr.. Wood, and
he made no further comment ON the
case.'''
David Dudley Field used to relate
the following: George Wood was tbs
personification of logic and cold as
marble. was sitting beside him IL
court one day when he arose to argue
q case, and as he arose his coattail
caught the back of the chair and hung
over it. Wood stood up and spoke
should think, for fully two hours, bu
never once did those coattails move.
''On one occasion young lawye
who had engaged George Wood to try
case was asked, How did the judg
charge the jury?' ooh, George Woo'
charged the jury, was the reply. -

Is Life Worth Living?

If there is an individual on earth who
is excusable for thus interrogating
himself, il is the unhappy mortal who
suffers from malaria in some one of
its diabolical forms. This is no difficult
conundrum, however. Life is worth
living by any man or woman who en-
joys good health. and is not harrassed
by a reproachful conscience. The
malarial scourge. heavily laid on, is
a terrible one for the poor sufferer to
endure A series of freezings, scorch-
ings and sweats-the last leaving one
as limp and as strengthless as a dish
rag, are hard indeed, recurring as they
do with fiendish regularity. Hostetters

recommendation should have some
weight. The bill had been adopted by
the joint committee on elections and
in this form had passed the senate.
It would not be possible to consider
and amend the bill. section by section,
and the house must accept the work
of the committee if it expected to dis
pose OF the code.
Shepard did not believe anyone had
wasted more time on the floor of the
house than Kenner, except himself. and
it had been spent by him in killing
Kenner's bills.
Kenner retorted that Shepard was
never prepared for the consideration
OF any measure that came before the
house
A motion to postpone consideration
was defeated, and when three sections
had been read O'Brien moved that the
bill be placed on its passage
Shepard protested that he did not
know what the bill contained, and
O'Brien declared that all the other
members had read and studied the bill,
and the work of the house should not
be delayed for the accommodation OF
one member who had not taken the
pains to read it.
After much further quibbling the
bill was made the special order Tor
Wednesday afternoon.
A motion to hold a night session and
one to hold a forenoon session today
were successfully defeated, Price re-
marking that certain members had
habit of speaking ten to twenty times
on every subject that came up, and
the house was unable to transact much
business when it did hold a session
House bill No. q, by Kimball, au-
thoriZing boards of education to use
a portion of their sinking funds for
current expenses of 1897, TO an amount
equal to what would have been re-
ceived had the county school tax been
collected. was taken up and an effort
made to place il on its passage
Shepard had no copy of the bill, but
he was opposed to it and wanted TO
debate it. Finally a motion to re-
commit was made by some member
with no explanation of the purpose,
and the chair decided it carried. Stew
art appealed from the decision of the
chair and it was found that the motion
was defeated.
A roll call was ordered. but Shepard
still talked against the bill and against
passing it without debate Thoreson
and Kimball explained the measure
and pointed out the necessity for grant
ing some relief to boards of education,
on account of the failure OF the coun-
ty tax.
Shepard was given unanimous con-
sent to talk against the bill, but had
changed his mind and did not care to
discuss it.
The measure received but u votes
two less than the constitutional ma
iority. Those voting against it were:
Lennon, Roylance. A. P. Sorensen,
Wheeler and Wilson. MaXheld,
Shepard, n. c. Sorensen and Sloan
were excused from voting. Mangan
changed his vote from aye to no and
gave notice that he would today move
a reconsideration of the vote.

MINES AND MINING.


Mr.. Nebeker of the committee on
mines and mining, submitted a change
or two in the mining recording laws. in
which he stated that a uniform fee
for recording was now made possible.
AS an instance of overcharging he cited
the recorder of Big Cottonwood as
charging a fee ranging from 81 to 81,
just as he felt like it. 1t was possible
for him to do a gross injustice in this
work. A change was ordered.
In the matter of bylaws the senator
had a change also. Now a mining re-
corder could hold a meeting in the
winter time when only d few of the
miners were working in the district and
by a promise of reward could get such
bylaws as he wanted and run mat
ters with a high hand. Another change
was made.
Mr.. NeDeker did not like the law
providing for the fencing of prospect
holes. 1t would make a mining camp
look like a well regulated cemetery and
besides these holes were made by men
who had gone away and left them, in
the most part.
The above constituted all the i'm
portant changes in the code.
Mr.. Snow wants action on the code
right away. He presented the following
resolution:
resolved, BY the senate, that all
committees to whom titles have been
referred be required to report by Thurs
day, the 18th, and if any portions of
the code have not been reported by
that date the same shall be taken up
and considered in open senate, and
further that a final vote be taken on
the code not later than March 2.
Although Senator Nebeker wanted a
little more time for his committee on
banks and banking, the resolution
passed.
Ogden is tired of the fire and police
law, and its fire and police board has
petitioned for its repeal. The petition
was presented yesterday. The petition
was referred to the committee on coun-
ties and municipal corporations.
Mr.. Chambers presented a claim for
$500 from Summit county, which repre-
sents the costs in a suit in which the
county was interested, the original
amount being $40. The sum is believed
to be a proper charge upon the state,
and the county wants it so determined.
1t was referred to the state board of
examiners.
Mr.. Hamer presented the claim of
Weber county for one-half the cost of
maps and plats of real estate, which
was similarly disposed of.
Messages from the house were re-
ceived announcing the appointment of
conference committees on Mrs. Can
mons deaf mute bill. and Rideout's
memorial praying for the election of
United States senators by direct vote
of the people, and matters of minor
importance, after which the senate ad-
journed.

ENGLISH sPARRows.

After the matter of the military code
had been finished the senate took up
the matter of bounties and rewards
and English sparrowS occupied the at
tention of the members for a while. Mr..
Game objected to the striking out of the
mandatory provisions which govern the
boards of county commissioners in the
matter of paying bounties- Mr.. Game
held that the provision should be man
datory and county boards compelled to
pay bounty when the proper petition
was filed. He cited the illustrious trio
which has gone out of office in Salt
Lake county and their refusal to pay
the county when eggs and sparrows
were presented and declared it ought to
be mandatory.
