BLACK WALNUT AT LARAMIE

grow as far north as that place. As it
is growing at Bellevue in this state.

e no reason why it should not sur

when planted on %alluvial soils and pro

black walnut makes rapid growth and
Is very desirable. AT an early day
many specimens were planted along

ern Colorado and at som points the
trees are today large and fine. The
black walnut has a long tap root and
few laterals. For this reason it does
not transplant readily except where
the trees have been transpIantcd once
or twice in the nursery row to cut the
tap root and secure Il compact. well
developed root system which may be
taken up with the plant. If such trees
cannot be secured we would advise. as
with most other nut-bearing plants,
that the seed be sown directly where
the plants are to stand. Home grown
seed, or that from similar lola,.ons,
should be secured, as it is very much
harder than that from farther south.

them. A comparison between the re-

appearance in the same paper of their
speeches at the New York chamber of

Wright. recorder and member Of the
Anthracite Coal Strike Commission to-
day made public the answer Of the
Philadelphia and Reading Coal and
Iron Company to the complaint of
President John Mitchell, submitted on
behalf of the miners President Baer,
OF the Reading Company, says the first
demand for 20 per cent. increase is 'ar-
bitrary, unreasonable and unjust" He
denies there is any such similarity be-
tween the mining of bituminous and
anthracite coal as TO make wages paid
in one a standard for the other. Mr..
Baer further AYERS that the wages of
the anthracite miners is largely re-
duced by their refusal TO work as many
days as it is customary towork in other
occupations, and that by reason there
of the company is subjected to great
loss. A number of other answers have
been received, and all are said to be in
line with the argument advanced by

noticeable decrease in the number Of

reason for all this is the reign OF terror
caused by the burglars who Rave bzen
operating on the wholesale in this city
for The pest two weeks.
For two reasons people do not visit
The first Is they are afraid to leave
their homes unprotected. md in the
second place they are afraid OF being
taken for burglars by their friends and
shot while trying to gain admittance TO
their homes.

Men standing on corners waiting fol

so desire. Every term children pass
from our schools to the Wilmington
High School and to various colleges,
where they easily attain distinction in
their studies. The only children that
leave the parochial schools before COM
pleting their course for other schools
are either those who will not submit to
the rules and discipline Of the Catholic
school, cr those whose parents are un-
faithful to the church, which regards
religion as a necessary part Of Chris

dren TO remain under religions influence
during the whole period of their educa-
tion.
