strange friar who had come to Venice

kets are to expensive, and so are straw
or sawdust mulches. Dry loose soil
has been found to be very effective;
therefore we prepare a loose mulch of
dry soil by frequent cultivation. Hav-
ing thus bottled UP the moisture, and
put the cork on in the form of a soil
mulch, we must look out for leaks.
If the soil is deep there are none to
fear from the bottom, but If weeds are
allowed to grow, they breathe out
the immense quantities of water and
dry up the land very quickly. There
fore, we must keep the land free of
weeds. By such precautions we are
enabled to keep through the summer
two-thirds TO three-fourths of the
moisture that Is there In the surfing
With the precipitation of another win
ter and spring, if it averages ten to
fifteen inches annually, we can then
mature the early maturing crops like
wheat, rye, barley, early oats and thin
stands of lucern and some grasses.
There are even hopes OF getting sue
cessfuI yields from some later crops
as, e. g.. corn Of early varieties.
Care In Sowing.
With all these precautions however,
there is still a scarcity of water which
we must take into account by also pro-
viding for a scarcity Of plants. We
must SOW thin. else the thick stand of
plants will extract all the moisture be-
fore they are nearly matured. This
was very strikingly Illustrated this
year on some of the experimental arid
farms, by the lucern and bronze grass
plats. On the plats with a medium
stand it dried out before 1t was high
enough to cut, while on those with a
very thin, scattering stand, it grew
vigorously, even yielding large plants
in the second crop.
By this system Of farming, carried
on on an extensive scale with the best
types of labor saving machinery, dry
farming on cheap land has been found
just as profitable as irrigation farming
on expensive land.
It remains to be seen from tests in
various localities extending through a
long series of years. what is the mini
mum average yearly rainfall that will
still permit successful dry farming on
the several types of soil.
In the matter of apple growing, it

has been demonstrated by this station
for some localities that the orchards
can be made manifold more profitable
than is usually the case. By careful
cultivation and pruning, and by the
right manner of spraying. orchards
which previously scarcely paid mea-
ger rental on the land, are now a
source of much profit. Similar re-
suits can doubtless be secured in other
localities, though a difference in eli
matte conditions may necessitate fur

termining the most profitable manner
of feeding cattle, sheep, hogs and
poultry under the crop and market
conditions that prevail here. or to-
wards determining the prevalence of
contagious diseases of cattle and the
best means Of combating them. We
cannot more than mention the i'm
provements made in our poultry fiocks
by careful record keeping and selec-
tive breeding for egg production. New
light has been thrown on the artificial
incubation problem for a dry climate
like this. 1t is hoped that hints have
come out Of the experiments as to the
real nature of the difficulty so that
future efforts can be directed along
lines leading towards an ultimate solu-
ton.
The value of the work of an expert

illusions worked out, but largely also
in steering US towards new problems
which, when solved, will contribute
in their turn to the prosperity of the
state and the nation. Much value also
attaches to the work of the experiment
station in celebrating new methods or
devistng new apparatus for carrying
on the Investigations in the field or
laboratory. A century ago the elabO-
ration of accurate methods of chem
tcal analysis opened the way for
Justus Won Liebig, Lawes and Gilbert,
and others half a century later to
make their discoveries relative to the

Of fertilizers which reVolutiOniZed ag-

tiers which the Connecticut and Penn
sylvania stations have built gives a
means for investigating animal nutri-
ton which can strike more nearly at
the foundation of the subject. In a
similar manner. but to q smaller de-
gree some of the apparatus or modes
of investigation devised by this station
now contribute to the means available
for future experimenters for pursuing
their research. We may note, for ex-

VERDICT OF MURDER FOUND.
Coroner's Jury in Stanford Case at
Honolulu Finds Evidence Of Crime.

Honolulu, March 1.-THE coroner's
jury returned a verdict that Mrs. Jane
Lathrop Stanford died an unnatural
death. The verdict says that death
was due to strychnine poisoning, the
poison having been introduced into a
bottle of ~bicarbonate of soda with
felonious intent by some person or
persons to the jury unknown.
The end of the inquest with a pos
tive verdict of murder leaves the po-
lice of Honolulu as much without a
clue as when Mrs. Stanford died.
High Sheriff Henry said after the in
quest that 1t was his opinion that the
strychnine was placed in the soda In
San Francisco by a member Of Mrs.
Stanford's household.
At the inquest Dr., Shorey testified
that the %strychnine used, as shown by
the tests, was a stry chime such as is
