Without doubt the digging of new
plants and setting them regularly in
the place they are 10 grow is the best
way Of obtaining the new strawberry
bed. True, this requires considerable
labor and the selection of the best run
ners from the old bed. If this plan is
to be followed the best plants will be
obtained by going over the old bed
as the runners are forming and keep
ing the tips cut Off to one or more
plants, so as 10 obtain strong plants
for re-setting. Another advantage of
this plan is that Just the number of
plants that may be set in a given Pc
Rod are dug, so that none are left to
dry out as with plants bought.
The other plan of making the new
bearing plantation is good one. and
quite generally followed, especially
where the berries are grown on the
matter row plan. The mower Is run
over the field after the crop is gathered
and, after raking off the cut plants. a
light plow Is run through the field and
about one-half or more of the plants
cut ont, leaving the new ones, which
will be about foot apart, composed
of the new plants. Care IS required
in this work, but the results Will he
profitable provided the new plants
formed are strong.

CAT SAVED WITH A LARIAT.
After Two Years Imprisonment, Feline
Is Rescued from Narrow Prison.

After nearly two years imprisonment
between brick walls four stories high and
only little more than three inches apart,
cat has been rescued by means of a
lariat. The feline dropped into the crew
ice when it was only a few weeks old
and has ben there ever since-fcd and
card for by families residing in the build
incS.
The prison which it occupied SO long
is between two buildings in East Fourth
street, New York city. The crevice
is closed front and back, and even
closed partly on the top by tin
roofing. Efforts which the kitten
made again and again during the early
days of its imprisonment to climb up the
slippery walls only TO fall back, were
watched with sympathy by the neigh
hors and they became divided into two
factions-those who thought that the kit
ten ought 20 be killed and relieved of its
misery and those who held that while
there was life there was hope. The lat
ter fed the cat and gave it water by
means of long string. Disconnected
neighbors many times threw in chunks
of poisoned liver, but the animal never
touched it. Meanwhile the cat grew and
every effort was made to release it, but
without success. A few days ago the
story became generally known and
came to the notice of an eX-cowboy, who,
with an old lariat, soon dragged the cat
from its prison, thus removing source
of much worry to the society for pre-
vention of cruelty to animals.

An Ohio man gives this description
of his poultry fountain: Every poul-
tryman knows how difficult it is to
keep good, clean water for a large
flock of hens shut up in house or
yard. If furnished in an open vessel
1t is soon lowered out of reach or filed
with dirt and litter by their scratching.
Various small fountains are on the
market which DO for little chicks, but
large fowls shut in a warm house

time and attention. The accompanying

ANENT THE CANDIDACY OF MR.
ATKINSON.

The Wenatchee Advance asks ;
"Is it possible that any patriotic
republican in Chelan county CON
templates Withholding his sup
port from the Hon. John D. At
kinson for governor" The Echo
hopes that the number of those
who will, are so small, and their
influence so insignificant, that
they will cut but a sorry figure
in the county convention that
will be asked to instruct for him
for governor,
1t isn't often, in the shuttle of
politics, that it falls to the lot of
one of the smaller counties of the
state to furnish the candidate for
governor, and county pride, if
nothing else, ought to give Mr..
Atkinson the Endorsement of his
home county without an effort on
his part. His entire fitness, his
satisfactory service as state au-
ditor, all plead in his favor.
The editor of this paper has
heard a number of influential
democrats say that if nominated
they would vote for John D. AT
kinson out of high personal re-
gard and as a matter of county
pride.

was at Niagara last winter at
the time the falls were
frozen over, said Fred Ferris,
a New York man who has been
spending a few days in Seattle,
to Post-I ntelligencer reporter.
And it was, to me at least, a
wonderful sight. The tremen-
dous ice gorge extended almost
without a break from the Ameri-
can to the Canadian shore, and
one could walk out upon it for
several hundred yards without
any fear of danger. Save in one
or two places scarcely drop of
water was going over the falls,
and one could look over and see
rocks that had not been exposed
for centuries standing bare save
for layers of ice.
Perhaps for a thousand years,
until that time, that awful vol
ume of water had been rolling
steadily over the precipice night
and day without a moments
pause: and to think that for a
few days it ceased to flow as it
had not done perhaps since
water came upon the earth was
to me too sublime for words. |
would not have missed the sight
for any amount of money, for
probably no man will ever have
the opportunity to view it again.
