tie of that region In 1892 seed of Mime
sofa 169 distributed to six farmers,
every one of whom reported an increase of
four and a half bushels to the acre over
their blue stem crops. In 1904 two hum
bred farmers secured and planted the new
seed, and it is said the yield more
than half million bushels greater than it
would otherwise have been. 1t is easy
enough to calculate the enormous increase
of the country's wheat crop when every
farmer of the great northwest shall have
planted the improved seed. Mr.. Hays has
done country greater service than if
he had paid every dollar of the public debt,
and deserves the honor President Roosevelt
has conferred upon him in the rendering of
of the highest official positions in the
government.

peach is such delicious fruit that
we ought to have it fresh as long as
the season will permit. Next to the

by raising a few White Heath Clings
and carefully wrapping them in paper
and keeping them in a cool place, but
where they will not freeze, we can
lengthen the season till Christmas.

and the Heath Cling. Two trees each
will abundantly supply an ordinary
family.
One of the apples that | would most
assuredly raise for home use is the
White Winter Pearmain. For several
weeks past we have been feasting on
this delicious apple. The mild flavor
of the White Winter Pearmain makes
it a fairly good apple to eat from the
time it is mature in the fall, but in
January it turns golden yellow and
gets mellow and then for an eating
apple it is hard to beat. The tree is
vigorous grower and an abundant
and annual bearer. The apple keeps
well, for now, the last of March, we
have them good and sound in our Gel
lar here in Seattle and if they were
not so very good I believe we could
keep them till May. To get the best
apples the White Winter Pearmain
should be we'll thinned. If the apples
are too thick on the tree they will be
small, tough and leathery. 1t is not
difficult to make this apple grade four
tier if they are thinned properly

sulphur two and quarter cents per
pound. We began our spraying by
using the lib formula, but as the
spring was very early and the buds
began to open somewhat we changed
to the 1-1-4 formula. What we mean
by these formulate is that we use one

WHITES INFLUENCE
ALREADY EVIDENT
in CARS REFORMS
Broadening of the Fran.
chiSe Agreed Upon.
NOW CONCEDED THAT GREAT n
RUSSIAN IS PRIME MINISTER

st, Petersburg oct 24-The an
nouncement made in these dispatches
yesterday that Count Witte would
shortly assume active direction of the
government as premier and head of a
responsible cabinet, seems to be fully
confirmed. 1t can be stated positively
that the emperor has rendered the po-
sition of premier of the cabinet about
to be formed by the count, who, how
ever, guarded his acceptance with
certain conditions which were placed
before his majesty in the form of a
written memorandum. Count Witte is
said to have informed the emperor
in his usual fearless manner. that he
could accept the position only on the
condition that he would be a real pre-
mier with a working cabinet, and not
the mere figurehead of an irresponsi-
BILE body
According to a persistent report the
emperor actually appointed Count
Witte as premier, after accepting his
stipulations. This report is premature
but it can be said that his majesty
has undoubtedly coniided to the count
the task of drawing up, according TO
his ideas the project for a response
Bile ministerial cabinet. the cOnsidera-
tion of which was being dragged out
in the special conference. 1t can also
be said that, following advice of
Count Witte, the powers of the new
douma will be extended along western
lines and the franchises broadened.
The reforms will be accompanied by
the practical freedom of the press and
Of meeting, in order to meet at least
partially popular demands.
Count Witte insisted that only in this
way could the country be tranquilized
and the emperor apparently Needed
the warning.
