GENERAL CHAFFEE WILL DIVIDE
HIS FORCES AMONG SEVERAL
CITIES.
Washington, Sept. 90 Gen. Chaffee
cables from Pekin Sept. 16 via Taku,
that to avoid crowding of Pekin he has
in mind the division of his force be-
tween Pekin, Pang Tung and Tien
Tsin The commanders assume that
some of their troops will remain in
Pekin during the winter. The con-
;dition of the Chinese is better, gard
eners are entering the city freely and
relieving distress. The situation is
quiet. An expedition today, Wilson
commanding, expelled the Boxers TO
the westward, in order to free the
country for coal supply from the mine
at Pekin.
Replying to the department query,
Chaffee says two daughters Of Atwater
and twenty-six others were murdered
at Taku July 81. Atwater, his wife
two children and six others were muir
5oered by their escort near Penchowfu

lady escaped into the mountains from

! How to Cure Onfons.

Red and yellow onions should be
pulled when the tops begin to lap and
are still slightly green, SO they lie read
lily, when they are made into round
piles. White onions must be pulled
green. Part OF the crop must be sacri-
feed In order to secure that color
which is necessary to bring the first
price. Red and yellow varieties can
be safely left In these round piles until
the middle Of September, when they
should be well cured. They are then
opened for a day OF two before cart
ing to Slated bins in the barn. Plenty
OF air should be given. Many OF our
largest growers have onion barns,
where they keep a fire In winter, but
we have banked our onions well on
approach Of severe weather and have
never had any trouble In keeping them
for. the spring market In fact, we
think that they are less liable to sprout
than where q fre Is kept. We cart our
onions as wanted lii the winter to d
basement cellar, where they are pre-
pared for market. writes Connecticut

CHARGES AGAINST v0SS

FILED WITH THE
STATE BAR ASSOCIATION
AGAINST ATTORNEY voss or
81 MANDAN. s5.
Fargo, Sept 2O.-Two affldavits
of two reputable attorneys have been
filed with the bar association of North
Dakota and referred to the disbarment
committee, asking disbarment of II. G.
Voss of Mandan. s5.
Mr.. Voss was formerly states attor-
$ney of Morton county, and it is said
that the grounds on which his disbar-
ment is asked are similar in many re
sspects to those on which T.. a. Simp-
son of Dickinson was disbarred by the
supreme court.
No recommendation has as yet been
made by the disbarment commit ttee OF
the association, ana the matter will
probably not come before the supreme
court this session.
It was expected that the association
would take some action regarding the
reinstatement of Il. A. Simpson, but the
matter was not brought up at the meet
ing held yesterday in Grand Forks.
The supreme court took no action and
the case remains as it was when the
court refused TO grant rehearing.
The association decided on an i'm
portant bill to be presented to the next
legislature for passage, providing for a.
change in the present law regulating
the salaries Of court reporters. This
new law provides that each reporter
shall receive a yearly salary of So, ,000
and that transcripts shall be paid for
at the rate of 6 cents per folio for. or
lginals and 3 cents per folio for copies,
this amount to go to the state treas
urer
| Under the present law reporters re-
ceIVe $40 per day for actual work
done in court and 15 cents per folio for
transcripts. Both plans carry with it
travelling expenses for reporters while
away from home.
For every district with the exception
OF the First and Third, which includes
Grand Forks and Fargo, the proposed
law would be a fine thing for the re-
porter. They would draw good salaries
and would have but little work to do.
In the Grand Forks and Fargo dis
tricts the reporters are kept at work
nearly all the time and in many cases
have to hire assistants in order to
take care of the work, especially is
this true of the Fargo district.
At the annual meeting OF the bar as
socia'tion the old officers were re-eIecd-
ed for another year

! FALL lRRl III ON.
Ets Great Value and Its Dangers For
Deciduous Trees. &s

Deciduous Trees. &s
Evidently water should be applied In
advance of any suffering by the tree.
{ 1t is a mistake to allow the tree to fall
Into distress and then seek suddenly to.
relieve it. One advantage Of irri cation
lis that it may save the tree from un-3
seasonable efforts which result in irreg-
q ular growth, untimely blooming, etc.
It is usually too slate to apply water to
the best advantage after the tree
shows the need of 1t. Its wants should,
be anticipated.
Irrigation after fruit picking is prac-5
ticed where the moisture from rainfall
4 is enough to properly mature the ear
lier fruits, but the effort SO far ex-
hausts available moisture that the tree
would afterWard fail Of growth enough
to fill out fruit buds for the following
year. One Irrigation. at that time ac-
companied by a summer pruning Of ex-
cessive wood growth has a tendency to
develop fruit spurs, maintain Yerdure
and leaf action and bring the tree to
& the close of the season III good condi-
\ tion for the next years bearing.
Fall irrigation for dec iduous trees is
found advisable where the rain re-
sources of the region are very scant, so
that there may be too great drying Of
the tissues Of the tree during the long
hot autumn, and where prolonged ac-
Il tivity OF the tree does not encounter
4 killing frosts. In some such places the
too early dormancy of the tree Is fol-
y lowed by undesirable fall bloom, which
4 can be prevented by prolonging fall
4 growth until "a later dormancy.
In regions Of greater cold, and espe-
cially in the interior valleys Of the
northerly portions Of the arid region,
! late Irrigation must usually be careful,
4 II guarded against, because it is very
II necessary that the tree should become
dormant early and fully harden its new
q wood. For the same reason summer
cultivation must stop sooner toward
the north, SO that a degree Of dryness
In the soil shall warn the tree to COM
plete its work for the season and pre-
pare for frosts. On the other hand, at
some interior northern points 1T Is nee-
essary to use late fall Irrigation TO
y guard the tree against injury by evai,-
oration In dry winter atmosphere. It
\ has been demonstrated that trees ade-'
quately supplied with moisture are less
+ liable to winter killing. These lessons
Z of experience are akin to others pre-
viously cited that adequate Irrigation
& Is Of inestimab Bile Yalne and that ex-
eessive irrigation is dangerous. d. j..
