Like the street car, the automobile
has done it's share OF frightening horses
and is responsible for many accidents.
Like the horse, it has even run away.
Now like both, it has run over a pedes-

A Trial Court.s Error

Where on trial for murder the

ceased, and the defendant, in order To
rebut this theory, offered to show by
experiments that had been made by
the country surrounding the scene OF
the homicide did not furnish place
OF concealment by trees or bushes, the
Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas
holds that these experiments were
proper and should have been admitted
and that it was error in the trial court
to exclude them.

News has just reached here of a white
Gaping incident which took place in
Cherokee county, North Carolina. fif-
teen miles from Ducktown, Tenn. A
new sect has been organized in the
lower part of Cherokee county, North
Carolina, called the Sanctffied"
church. The mode of worship had be-
come repugnant to the citizens. Some
time ago the churchhouse was burned
by the citizens, after they had given
public notice to that effect, but one of
the preachers remained after having
been notified to leave. A crowd of
twenty-five citizens, disguised IS
whitecaps and all we'll armed, went to
the house of P. Berrong, where the
preacher was boarding. The preacher
was dragged out of the house and
given thirty-nine lashes with BLACK
snake" whip, after which he was or
dered to leave the community forth
with. He did so.

Horse Sale. at Chicago.

During the last week in January and
the first week in February horse re-
ceipts at Chicago were the largest in
about four months, February 4th's re-
ceipts were the largest for any day
since September, 1899. Receipts for
January aggregated 1888 horses, and
9,113 shipments, against II ,O74 arrivals
and 1884 shipments last year, 1O,432
arrivals and 9,158 shipments in 1899,
1875 arrivals and 9,159 shipments in
1898 and 9,206 horses reported and
1882 head shipped for January, 1897
The most active inquiry was for farm
chunks which sold for $50 to s135 for
medium to good animals weighing
1000 to $500 pounds. Many horses
that would weigh from 900 to LOO
pounds were purchased for southern
markets. Foreign purchases also in
creased the latter part Of January, the
bulk of the trade being for bussers at
$50 to $110. Draft horses Of good quail
ity brought 5000 to 1926 Agents from
the lumber regions bought literally for
logging purposes and also took some
draft animals. Buyers of cavalry
horses for the British army were like
wise in the market. At special sale
of drafters and roadsters, 525 horses
were disposed of, the bussers bringing
$3.50 to $3.50. At the regular auctions
drivers brought $265 and matched
teams as high as $3.50.

Cultivation Of Orchards.

CONDENSED from Farmers Review
Stenographic Report of Illinois Horti
cultural Convention)
f. D. Voris spoke on the cultivation
OF orchards. In part he said: For the
nrst seven or eight years the cultiva-
ton can be done in connection with
some field crop. When the trees are
young-from three to four years OF
age-we prefer corn to any other crop
and might say that this is true for
the first seven years or till the trees
begin to bear. 1t is very important to
keep the soil we'll broken up in every
county where the soil is not very rich.
The black soil of central and northern
illinois may not need fertilizing, but
even there some of the potash ferti-
lizers might do good deal of good.
II were going to buy harrow for
use IN the orchard, would buy an
orchard cutaway harrow. We must
Keep the orchard free of weeds and
grass throughout the growing season.
Sow In che fall for the winter cover
crop. You must begin to cultivate
your orchard well early in the season
and keep it up through the summer
and early fall. You must do this to
get the best results.
Q.-Do you use cover crop?
Al have used rye.
Q.-Have you noticed prolonged
season of growth resulting from Gull
tivatlon; that is. where the trees are
cultivated, do they grow outside of
their season?
A.-No, sir; If the cultivation has
been kept up through the summer.
MT. Van Deman.-Now, the point as
to the continuous cultivation is very
important; for if there has been no Gull
tivatlon during the spring and sum-
mer. 1T will not do to begin it in the
fall. as 1t is very likely to bring disas-
ter to the orchard. If the orchard is to
be pastured with sheep, it should be
over-pastured. so that the sheep will
have to be fed; that will result in en-.
riching the orchard,

horticultural Observations,

The Illinois State Horticultural So
clety has arranged an exchange of vol
umes of the State horticultural Re-
ports previous to the year 1894. Some
people have duplicate volumes but lack
single numbers of other years. Any
That are in position to exchange vol
umes will confer a favor on other IL
llnols horticulturists by correspond
Ing with the secretary, l.. R. Bryant,
Princeton, Illinois, relative to the
same.
IL IS always difficult to keep sweet
potatoes, but it can be done, even out
side OF cold storage house. 1t is be-
lleved that so degrees is the best tenn
perature for this kind of tuber. An
other requisite is dryness. Van Deman
says that in New Jersey the farmers
dig pits where they will remain dry
ana store the tubers in these. The DO
tatoes are covered to a depth of sew
eral feet with pine needles, and these
in turn are covered with dirt. The
natural temperature of the soil is
about IS degrees in that state, and the
conditions for bookkeeping are very
good.
A tree planter says that the great
est enemy to newly-planted woody
plants is grass. When such plants and
trees are set in holes cut in the sod
they do not generally do well. Keen
che sod away and give each tree and
shrub chance to grow. The tree that
is once established and can reach out
and get the food it needs will require
little attention from year to year. Care
should be used not to plant a tree too
low; 1t should be planted a little high
er than it stood before. Whether
trees or shrubs, they should be given
room In which to grow. When large
trees are to be set out, especially large
forest trees, it is advisable to steady
them with wire stays and cables. The
stays should not be wound around the
trees, but should be fastened into wire
eyes screwed into the trees. These
stays will prevent the wind swayine
the trees and loosening the roots,
while they are still loosely fixed in tho
soil.

Total cost, t. o. b.. Washing


loA. S6.S.
The prospectus further says: "The
above cost, when deducted from the
market price Of $13 per 100 pounds,
shows net profit of $4.OS."
The prospectus claimed that the fac
tory in question would be able to turn
out 100000 pounds month at a profit
of $195.840 for the year. The whole
sale price Of 10 cents per pound leaves
an enormous profit for the retailer ans
shows why he can afford to take heavy
risks in selling it as butter. Today
much Of the cleo sells at Is cents per
pound. Il the time comes when it will

sumner will not have to pay more than
