is certain portion of the public
press that panders to and fosters
all that is vulgar, degrading, and
pernicious and publishes to the
millions these terrible and tragic
tales Of disease, drink, divorce and
death, describing in detail the sad
happenings in society of scandals,
sin, shame aud suicide. Such tales
of crimes and histories of horrors
are not good reading for the masses
and, strange to say, those, both

utation of being prudes, not being
able to speak of q naked fact or re-

LONE ROCK.

The weather is delightful.
P. L, Ham and ], NJ. Williams are at
tending court in Condor this week.
Farmers in this locality are busy put
ting in their rye crops and hauling win
ter wood.
Mrs. Chas. Stevens was thrown from
her horse one day last week and was
quite badly hurt.
The new grass is the finest ever known
at this season OF the year and stock of
all kinds is in fine condition for winter.
Several of the Haystack folks have

melons which were easily disposed OF at
good prices.
John E. johnson took a mining tour
in the John Day mountains last week
and reports having found some excellent
prospects which we hope is correct.
Rev. c. II. Clark writes us from Spo-
kane that he has been returned to the
Lone Rock charge for the ensueing year.
This will be the third year for Mr.. Clark
and his estimable wife among us and we
are well pleased to have them again.
Three Lone Rock boys, Jesse Golf,
John Madden and Dell Ward, left the
first of the week to enter Portland Uni
versity. We are glad to see such energy
in our young boys in the line OF educa-
tion. Brighter boys are not to be found
than these three and all feel confident
that they will improve the golden OPP
portunity. Several OF their young
friends met Saturday evening and gave
them a farewell party.

RAISE MORE PORK.

"Another full carload of hams,
bacon and lard arrived last week
at Colfax from Omaha. These
products the merchants will sell to
farmers in the Palouse country,
and the money paid out for them
will be direct and everlasting loss
to this section.
This means that the farmers in
the Palouse are paying the Missou-
ri or the Iowa farmer for his corn,
for his labor of feeding it to the
hogs, his profit, the profit of the
stock buyer who ships the stock to
Omaha, the railroad charges from
the farm to Omaha, the cost of
packing and the packers profit,
the freight charges from Omaha to
Colfax and the profits of the jobber
and the retailer.
This is the best farming and
stock country on earth, and at a
time when more or less wheat
damaged by rains will be unsala-
bic, and fit only to be fed to stock.
"How long will this piece of ex-
trayagance continue? How long
must we see train loads of pork
products, eggs, poultry butter and
cheese coming 2000 miles or more
over plains and mountains, aud
millions Of dollars which ought to
be kept at home, sent east to pay
for these products which should be
produced on our own fertile soil."-
Spokesman Review,
This is indeed an old folly, and
exists all over the coast, but it is
one that will probably not be
speedily corrected. 1t appears to
be a waste to ship food half way
across the continent that could as
well be raised here, and in fact it is
a waste for farmers to buy hog pro-
ducts from abroad if they can pro-
duce them as readily at home.
But the farmer is not wholly to
blame for our markets not being
supplied with domestic hams etc.
The consumers are partially at
fault for not being sufficiently sec
tional to prefer home products to
things imported. For instance,
two fine hams, one home product

Puritanical prudery is silly
and senseless. Those who affect it are
the weakest and most susceptible e
of the human race. It's ridiculous
to pretend to know nothing of the

poisonous snakes and hideous rep

who goes among these things for
scientific purposes. We are prone
to shrink from those who love to
think, read and talk of these things.

THE OFFICIAL PAPER OF GILLIAN

.THE TX lisr CONFERENCE.

The trust conferences held in Chi

ing will have any preceptibIe effect
on the future attitude Of the gov
ernment towards the trust remains
10 be seen. To the casual reader of
the proceedings it would appear
that the great multiplicity of views
presented, for and against combina-
tons of capital in the industrial
world will tend to mystify people
and render the whole question even
more complicated than it has been
rather than furnish any practical
solution of the problem. ''Joint
discussions" of any question, relig-
ious, political, social or economic,
rarely pay for the oratorical energy
expended. People who listen gen
orally accept the arguments Of the
speaker who advocates their own
views, and in this instance it would
seem that all comers could be suit
ed. Editor Rosewater, of the
Omaha Bee, advocated the revision
of the federal constitution as the
only practical way to combat the
trusts and it is probable that the
more the question is studied the
more antitrust people will come to
that belief.

Plymouth possesses magnificent

glass. representing scenes in Ply
mouths stirring story. The we'll
known and dramatic incidents OF
the sighting OF the Spanish Armada
and the sailing of the Puritans in
the Mayfower are duly set forth
with much pomp and circumstance,
and so is the ceremony of the open
ing of the Guildhall by the Prince
OF Wales. This forms the conclud-
ing scene. In it are represented the
Prince, the Mayor and corporation,
and the naval and military authori-
ties, all in stained glass. The Prince
is the central figure, and is unfortu-
nate enough to be clothed in civilian
dress. Black frock coat and laven-
der combinations do not look we'll

joints lend a particularly romantic
air to stop" hat. Yet all these
things are faithfully reproduced, as
also are the boots, which, according
to the words of one well-known
song, are "all very fine and large"
Altogether, this portrait of the
Prince is rather inadequate repre-
sentation of "the best dressed gem

Killing Ouack Grass.

In perusing some of C.. L. Gabril-
sons writings l note that he says
quack grass beat him, and he is good
perience with this grass since boy
hood; it is mode tender than most peo-
pie supposed, says contributor to
Farm, Stock and Home. 1t will not
live through Minnesota winter if lay
ing on top of the ground. To ex-
terminate quack l first seed the field
infested down to blue grass, timothy,
Austrian bronze and white clover,
fence it and, after the pasture is
grown, put in some sheep or cattle
for four or five years, but sheep alone
the last two years if possible. Now
here is the secret: The harder the
soil is packed the shallower the quack
roots will grow, and the closer grass
is cropped the smaller the roots will
be. Finally remove the fence in July,
after the sheep have eaten the pasture
so short that the field looks bare. The
deepest roots are not over two inches
below the surface, so do not plow, but
get a good sharp flexible disc, lap one
half back and forth, don't make lands,
or go round, then over-cross it and
lap, don't let disc cut over 21a inches
deep. Then take spring-tooth har-
row, the finer the better, and drag,
and keep it up, don't let living leaf
show itself on that field the rest of
the season. The first thing after get
ting grain in the next spring is to
double disc again. and harrow the same
way. Then plant corn and keep 1t
clean with spring-tooth cultivator
After the corn is off disc thoroughly
and the next year SOW to grain and
there will be no more quack, and you
can pillow and be safe and be well re-
warded for your trouble, and make
money on the sheep and other things
while destroying the quack.

any assertions to the injury of well

enormous prices on account of their
patent process of grating" or their
grapes on European roots" peaches
on hard maple" and many other abb
surdities to catch those not posted.
Near Johnson a few years ago large
orchard planted of summer, fall and
winter apples bore Hyslop crabs. An
other near Adams, of 500 trees, bore
crabs only, and one at Beatrice treated
its owner to full crop of Gennets in
place of Red June, Early Harvest,
Duchess and many fall and winter va
rieties as was expected. A nursery
company established near here few
years ago had thirty travelling sales
men, but they did not own an acre OF
land or grow so much as a currant
bush or Seeding peach, depending en-
tirely upon the culls of other nurseries
The model orchard" so successfully
worked on influential" farmers, one
half payable in fruit, three years from
planting, is chief among swindles. One
that l visited cost the owner $50 in
cash. The payment in fruit has never
been called for. But any reliable nur-
sery would have been glad to have fur
nished the entire stock bought for $50.
