Decision Affirmed.

The Kansas City court of appeals
on Monday affirmed the decision Of
the lower court in the case of Ann
O'Malley VS.. the city Of Lexington
for injuries sustained on account Of
defective sidewalk in the city which
was generally supposed to belong to
the city, but which was built on pri-
vate property. 1t is said that some
of the legal points in the case had
never been passed upon before by the
higher courts Of this state.
The original suit was brought for
81, 500. A verdict was rendered for
1850. H. G. Wallace, city attorney,
and Alexander Graves represented
the appellant and William Aull and
G. J. Duling the appellee.

REV. ALFRED F. SMITH.

The new president Of Central Fe-
male College is a native of Missouri,
as are his parents, though the stock
comes from Virginia by way of Ken
tucky, he is "a years of age, about
medium height, of fine physique and
splendid health. He was reared on
farm and educated at Bellevue Col
legiate Institute, Caledonia, Mo, and
at Central College, Fayette, Mo-, Of
which latter institution he is alumnus
with the degree Of A. B. He also
attended the Vanderbilt University
and won distinction in the theolog-
ical department of that school. After
leaving the university he became a
member Of the Missouri Conference
and served successively and success
fully at Centralia, Montgomery City,
Moberly and Park Church, Hannibal.
He was then transferred to the ST..
Louis Conference and since that time
has been at Kirkwood, Mo.
We commend the wisdom and
Judgment Of the board in electiDg
him to the presidency of Central
Female College. We think the
choice a happy one and believe that
he viii fulfill the expectations of the
church in the great work he under
takes. And one of the strongest
guarantees of his success is in the
character of the lady who enters with
him into this difficult responsibility,
Mrs. Smith is not only lady Of pleas
ing appearance and high christian
character, but Of splendid cultivation

keeps down weeds Asparagus, how
ever, does not grow on saline soil and
salt itself contains no fertillziug
matter, as frequently proven both by
analysis and by noting its effects on
various crops. A heavy application
Of salt will kin plants and trees, and
it is unreasonable to suppose that
because certain quantity Of salt keeps
down weeds but does not kill aspara-
gus that it is beneficial to the latter.
1t has been proven by noted gar
deners and experimenters that salt is
Of no benefit when applied to aspar-
agus. Planted in rich soil, and well
manured each fall, together with a
sharp hoe and some elbow grease well
applied will produce much better
results than wasting salt and saving
muscle The old way of planting
asparagus by digging a deep trench
and filling it up with manure is
useless. Plant shallow and put
manure on top every fall Don't
prolong cutting much beyond June
lst, and don't cut off the tops until
they are killed by frost, for the tops
are necessary to form strong root

owing to the lengthening of the
course by one year under the present
administration. This forty-eighth
session Of the college has been one Of
the most successful and prosperous 10
the history of the school, perhaps the
most successful. The attendance has
tested the capacity Of the buildings,
and the quality of the work done
and the spirit of the student body are
highly gratifying to the friends Of
the Institution.
The board of trustees has-on foot
plans for the good of the college,
which are not ready for public an

school feel that opportunity is at high
tide and they expect to take advan.

HORTICULTURAL ITEMS.
BY Charles Teubner.
ERRONEOUS BELIEFS

AAhAhONLVAo DELlLfN
Several years ago an Eastern nur-
serY firm published in one OF the
Lexington papers an argument on the
superiority Of Eastern grown fruit
trees over those grown 10 the West.
This statement was full of misleading
half-truths and willful misrepresen-
tations Their agents are today
trying to gull the people into buying
their high priced trees (high because
they pay high commissions, long dis
tance freight charges, collection
charges, and to cover the loss sustain
ed from orders left on their hands.
As an instance Of their high prices
l quote an example. A citizen of
this town paid $40 for bill Of trees,
bought from one of these agents,
which we could have duplicated for
SlS of same varieties and sizes and
better trees.
"Distance lends enchantment to
the view" But this notion that
Northern or Eastern grown stuff i,
better that that grown in the West
is causing thousands of dollars to be
sent out of the state yearly which
could be saved and better use made Of
at home. Why not claim that the
East produces more and better corn,
wheat, cattle and horses?
1t does not make a particle Of
difference whether a tree is grown in
the West, North, East or South. II
trees are taken from each one of these

last eight years before he became a
county officer he lived at Odessa,
being engaged in teaching all the

A Fine Horse Bought.

On Tuesday e. M. Taubmau, DR..
Geo. 1. Smith, August Marcks, Drs,
Tucker and Fredendall, John Aull,
and Waddell and Sawyer bought of
Crouch & Sons, Lafayette, Indiana,
the German coach stallion, Falcon,
No. 1875, bred and reared by the
German government and imported
into this country December 1902. The
price paid was $4,000 This horse
has been on exhibition here and has
excited universal admiration. He is
undoubtedly one of the finest animals
in the county, The introduction OF
fine stock of any useful kind into any
community is a public benefaction
above and beyond considerations Of
profit to the owners. Coach horses
are being rapidly introduced into this
part of the country from the older
states and By direct Importation.
These gentlemen aimed to meet a
popular demand.
Falcon will be kept at the stable Of
DR.. Geo. I. Smith in this city.
