rows Of hen manure and four barrOws
of good soil April 1 and mixes it again
April 10. The 1st OF May he adds four
barrows Of rotted manure and mixes
thoroughly. About May IS he digs out
a sdace Of ground seven feet in diane
ter and fourteen inches deep, fills it in
with the compost and some good soil
and finishes the hill Off ten feet in di-
ameter and six inches high in the cen
ter. After planting he works the
ground well till the plants begin 10 run.
When tie plants are about three feet
long he mulches the ground all over for
a space Of twenty feet in diameter
around each hill with horse manure
laid on three inches deep, stalking the
wines down with sticks to keep the
wind from rolling them about, so that
they may root at every joint. 1t is OF
great advantage to keep the vine from
fruiting as long as possible by pruning
all fruit bloom of until about the last
week in July.
Mr. Warnock practices fertilizing a
few of the first blooms that come, be-
AltNAuE lAlNA IL NAhN0 NAAAA fAENA " AAN
growth Of fruit to be well pollenized.
When the first perfect specimens have
set well-say four or five inches in di-
ameter-he cuts of all other fruit and
blossoms and nips the ends off the
vines and all bloom that shows twice a
week. While the growth of squash is
going on liquid manure is used twice a
week along three or four Of the princi-
pal vines Of each hill, often six pailfuls
to the hill if it Is in dry time. Great
care must be taken to give plenty of
water. Mr. WarDock ridlcules the tales
of feeding squash and pumpkin hy in
jecting milk or other stuff into the
vine He says he did practice some
methods along this line. but is now sat
isfied that the only thing that will in
crease the size Of the fruit comes out OF
the vine, ana the vine must get its sup
port from the natural roots.

clover and AIfaIfa seed.

In clover and alfalfa seeds freedom
from noxious weeds may be considered
to be in direct relation to the amount
Of reclaiming done. In general the
higher grade Of seeds are the safer and
IN the end the cheaper TO buy. A rec
ommendation OF one OF the experiment
stations is worth remembering-that no
alfalfa seed be sown until carefully
screened through screen OF twenty
meshes TO the iacS TO remove dodder
seeds, since dodder Is a menace to al-

The BIGGEST SQUASH.
An Interesting Contribution to a

An Interesting Contribution to a
Perenninlly Fascinating Topic.
To William Warnock of Goderich,
Ont, must be given credit for raising
the largest squash ever grown. This
giant weighed 403 pounds and was
shown at st. Louis. Some years ago
when Mr.. Warnock succeeded in rails
Ing a squash that weighed 31S pounds
he felt pleased to think his vegetable
weighed more than the biggest man"
in Goderich, but later he tried TO do
better and at the worlds fair in Chi
cago showed a squash that weighed
365 pounds. In 1898 he beat his own
record again. raising a squash that
weighed 3SS15 pounds Now his latest
success beats this record by 14la
pounds, and it took a case forty-one
inches across to carry it to St Louis
So says a writer in the Country Cen
tleman, in which the accompanying cut
of the big squash is submitted. The
secret Of growing it as told by Mr..
WarnOck to the writer is also given.
In brief, it appears that the land is in
good condition. having been heavily
manured each year. Mr.. Warnock pre-

The Russian Peasant.

The Rev. DR.. George Washburn. who
lived in Constantinople for fcrR-six
years and has just retired from the
presidency of Roberts College. has
Travelled much in Russia and made a
close, study Of the Russian peasant.
To the casual observer tho noujik Ia
uncouth and uninteresting. but he is.
in DR.. Washburn's opinion, Ghe most
Interesting peasant in all BoYope. In
religion he is an idealist He has little
knowledge of the scriptures, although
the Russian government favors their
circulation, but when he studies the
Bible, the teaching Of the brotherhood
of man is that which most appeals to
him. In many instances this Ideal
teaching has been followed to what
would In this country be considered
absurd lengths.
The peasants believe most thor
oughly in their religion, and carry that
belief to the extreme that they con
slider the Russian orthodox church the
only true Christian faith. II Is argued
by them that the Christian religion
was first given to the Latin races. but
those races failed to extend It through
out the world. Then the GerManic
races received the mission, but 'tf1ey.
too in Russian opinion, have failed.
Now, 1t is held, the time Is ripe for the
Slavonic races to take up the work
and the true Slav confidently expects
that in order to carry out the mission
It will be his duty to conquer all Eu-
rope.

COLORADO LEGISLATURE
Free Employment Agency.

One bill presented TO the LegisNe
ture Is of considerable interest to peo7
pie who have devoted their time and
energies to obtain employment for
worthy men and women. In the Den
yer City Hall, there is free employ
ment bureau, which, during the last
year, has been haven of refuge for
many worthy but penniless persons
The bill in question provides for the,
establishment of a number of public
employment offices 10 be under til
management of the state labor coSh-
missioner.
The bill was prepared by ]. F. Gall
breath, Jr., former president OF the
Denver Chamber Of Commerce. Fplice
Matron Imogene Clark and Mrs. fCall-
breath are working hard for thy pas
sage of the bill which has the i,idorse-
ment of the Denver Woman's Club.
The bill was presented by Senator Al
eNander.
Just a year ago the office in the
City Hall at Denver was opened by the
Woman's Club and since then employ
ment has been obtained for 81 l5 men,
women, boys and girls.
"Such Offices" states the bill, "shall
be placed IN charge OF suitable persons
whose duty 1t shall be to make every
possible effort to provide employment
for all applicants therefor, and to make
n record of all applications for employ
ment and help, together with such in
formation about the applicant as will
show. SO far as may be, his capabilities
OF service. No fee or compensation
shall be charsae sk-received. directly
or indirectly, from any person or per-
sons applying"
1t is provided further that any per.
son In charge OF one Of these Offices
who shall receive Zee shall be fined
or imprisoned. An appropriation of
$1,000 is asked for the maintenance
of the Offices for the first two years.
The state herald., 1905-02-10
Prisoners Should Work.

In the biennial report Of the State
Board of Pardons Secretary Hagar rec
ommends that prisoners, as far as pos
sible, shall be set at work TO reim-
burse the state for the expense OF their
maintenance.
There Is no reason why prisoners
should rot be supplied with material
and allowed to cut and make clothing
for themselves and for other penal and
charitable institutions. The same is
true of shoes and other articles OF ap.
parel. This state spends thousands Of
dollars in supplies for the four penal
and four charitable Institutions which
might be saved. Mr.. Hagar would
like to see broom and brush factory
started at which supplies for the state
Institutions could be manufactured.
The bill for supplies of this kind at the
state house amounts to great many
dollars each year, and II runs up in the
thousands when all the Institutions are
considered.
Another big Item of expense to the
taxpayers Is In school supplies, such
as desks. tables, rulers. blackboards,
erasers. etc. A great many of these
things can be manufactured at the
prisons. Not far from Canon City the
state owns a fine piece OF coal land
and Mr.. Hagar wants the Legislature
TO let that be opened up by the pris-
oners. They can mine enough coal
there for every state institution. and
thus save many thousands Of dollars
to the tax payers. At the same time
nobody is going TO be hurt because
these things are in lines where they dc
not interfere.
