Are Afraid of Turner.

Rufe Turner had two fights in Phil
adelphia, won them both, and now he
is out of job. He has literally fought
himself out of work, for every fighter
around Philadelphia sidesteps the hard
hitting little black man. Rufe beat
Dave Holly who weighed lat pounds
and knocked out Bennett who weighed
AS pounds, and he simply cannot drag
any man near his weight into the ring
with him. =
In a letter to a friend in Seattle
Rufe writes that he saw Buddy Ryan
and Douglass fight the other night and
says if he ever gets a crack at Ryan
he will defeat the crack welterweight.
when 1 get back to the coast" he
writes, Il am going right after Cans
hot and heavy for Tn sure 1 can beat
him next time I get chance. I be-
lieve Joe thinks so too, for he made
a sneak over here from Baltimore to
see me fight Dave Holly and he was
surprised to see how easily I got the
decision over Holly, for Holly came
very nearly knocking Cans out when
they fought at Baltimore"
The Philadelphia papers all speak
highly of Rufe and sports are want
ing to know why such men as Eddie
Hanlon dodge the black boy so per-
sistently while claiming to be willing
to meet any one at ITO pounds. If
Rufe could get a crack at Jimmy Britt
it is a cinch that he would make bet
teE showing against the native son
than Joe Cans did.

Old Wager Decided by a Cow.

AKRON. o.. Feb. George Nc
Cathern, a farmer living near Orrville.
has just had decided a wager made
twenty years ago by his father with
a neighbor equally interested with
himself in natural history. The wager
was as to the age of a common crow.
and to decide it the elder McCarren.
now deceased, attached an aluminium
tag to the leg of crow captured in
his fields and liberated the bird.
The conditions were that if the tag
were not received by McCarren or his
descendants within twenty years. it
would be evidence that the crow was
still alive. They counted on anyone
who shot the bird returning the tag.
The crow was shot by a boy named
Harry Anglers, in Holmes county, and
the tag was sent by him to the son OF
the man who made the wager.

o. r. 4 N. AND NORTHERN MAY
SCRAP FOR SUPREMACY IN
RICH DISTRICT.
II the Northern Builds From Waila
Waila, o. r. 4 N. Will Extend
Its Eisin Branch.

A scrap for supremacy in the
Wallowa country may result between
the Northern Pacific and the o. r. &
N, if the Hill interests attempt to
carry out the project of extending the
narrow gauge line from Walla Walla
through the mountains into the
Wallowa country, as it was intimated
at the time that the O. r. & N. and
Northern Pacific exchanged trackage
in Walla Walla and Columbia counties.
Close on the heels of the rumor that
the Northern would use the narrow
gauge as the first step towards build
ing into the Wallowa from Walla Wal
la, comes report from La Grande
that the o. r. & N. is reviving it's
plans to extend it's branch from Ell
gin, Oregon, through the Wallowa on
to Lewiston and Charleston by way of
the Grande Ronde river, a preliminary
survey for which was made several
years ago.
The Oregon Railroad & Navigation
company has had a man through the
Wallowa country checking up survey
made several years ago, when the o.
r. & N. was at war with the Northern
Pacific over the Clearwater country,
and while it is almost sure the Elgin
branch will be extended to the heart
of the Wallowa country. it is possible
that the extension will be continued to
connection with the Riparia road if
that line was built.
For two years past the Wallowa
people have been clamoring for rail-
road and have sent a number of petit
tons to the 0. r. & N. people, and re-
lief is perhaps not far distant. During
the Clearwater fight the o. r. & N.
sent a large amount of ties and other
building material to Elgin and the
people for the first time realized then
that the proposed Grande Ronde road
had bearing on the issues involved
in the controversy between the roads
regarding the business of those Sec
tions. The truce came, however, AMI
since then not mile of track has been
built
The survey of the Grande Ronde
read shows that a grade of 20 feet to
the mile was secured down the river.
The road would serve a rich country
all the way and would also provide the
most direct route to the east for the
produce of this region.

CATTLE QUARANTINE.
New Regulation to Prevent Spread Of
Disease Now In Force.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb. I'm
der the direction of the department OF
agriculture a federal quarantine was
put into effect today against a large
part of the south and parts of other
states to prevent the spread OF
splenetic fever among cattle. The
quarantine lines are largely the same
as adopted last year.
The quarantined territory embraces
the eastern part Of North Carolina
all of South Carolina, Indian Territory
Alabama, louisiana and Mississippi
that part of Virginia below the James
river; all Of Georgia but Union. Towns
and Rabun counties; all Of Arkansas
except the two northern tiers of coun-
ties. which are left outside the quaran-
tine period; part of Tennessee, Okla
homa, most of Texas, except the Pan
handle and the lower part of Califor-
MIA.
The regulations allow cattle in the
quarantine district to be shipped north
in placarded cars if shipped for
slaughter and placed in quarantined
yards on arrival at destination. II
the stock is unloaded en- route it must
be at yards reserved solely for south
ern cattle and after unloading the cars
must be disinfected before used for
native stock

CAN PICK GOOD LAYERS.
Walter Ho9an's Theory Astounds the
Minnesota Poultry Men.

Walter Hogan, Of Pillsbury. Todd
county, Minnesota, after a study of
many years, has discovered what will
be of interest to poultry men every
where. He has perfected a theory con-
corning the possibility to determine
early in the life of the young chicks
which will be good layers. Mr.. Hogan
asserts he can go through a henyard
and select without any hesitation the
fowls that are yielding their owners
good profit, and those which should
be killed because of their inability to
lay. 1t has passed the experimental
stage with him, for he has succeeded
in convincing poultry experts and
parts of the country that he can do
what he says.
The state experimental stations are
not given to wasting much time on
mere theories, and the fact that the
Crookston has put Mr.. Hogan's theory
to the severest tests and is enthusiasts
tic in praise Of it, speaks something
Of it's real value to poultry raisers.
The following from the January issue
of the Poultry Journal is a partial
statement made to that magazine by
the director of the experimental sta
ton: r
Endorsed by Stationmen.
Walter Hogan, president of the
Walter Hogan company, Of Fergus
Falls, Mimi, came here and told us
that he could distinguish the good
layers from the poor ones, and that
he was going to publish a book de-
soribing the method. This seemed to
us a work of questionable worth, as
We had our doubts as to his ability
to do so. He promptly told us that
We had the liberty of publishing him
as a fraud if he failed to pick out the
best layers. those that did not lay
al all, and the medium layers.
THE flock was then separated into
three pens and records kept for fifteen
days, when the food was reduced so
they would stop laying and begin to
moult. In this time the best pen laid
fifty and one-half eggs a day hum
dred hens, the medium pen thirty
seven eggs a day a hundred hens. and
the poorest pen did not lay an egg.
This convinced us that the man
was honest in his convictions and that
mis- long study and research had result
ed in scientific discoveries of untold
worth to poultrymen.'
Beside this testimony from the ex-
detrimental station, the authorities Of
Cornell university On. " are expert
menting with the discovery.

Cotton may be distinguished from
the linen when one is making pur-
chases by moistening the tip of the
finger and pressing it on the fabric.
If it vets through at once it is linen,
while If any cotton enters into its
manufacture 1t will take several sec
onds to wet through the threads. In
linen the threads are more uneven
than in cotton. This is good test for
handkerchiefs.

RUSSIAN PRESS CENSORSHIP.
Remarkable Freedom of News Trans
mission Abroad Is Portentious.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, Feb. John Callan
O'Laughlin in Washington special to
the Tribune says
No act of the Russian government
is more portentious in connection
with the revolutionary situation than
the reimposition of the censorship
upon press dispatches sent out of the
empire.
Since the war began the correspond
ents of foreign journals in St. Peters
burg have enjoyed absolute freedom
in telegraphing or mailing their dis
patches. They were authorized and
did cable full descriptions of the de-
feats suffered by the Russian fleet and
the Russian army. They gave all the
details connected with the assassina-
ton of General Bobrikoff, the COVER
nor-general of Finland, and of M. de
Plehve, minister of the interior. They
described time and again the discon-
tent which existed among the peasan-
try, the unpopularity of the war, and
the heartrending scenes which took
place whenever soldiers started for
the front In no case was it neces-
sary to submit message to the CEN
SOr.

Censorship In Finland.

The correspondents ran counter to
this official at only one point-at
Helsingfors, at the time Bobrikoff
was murdered. When I complained
that the censorship of my dispatch
was in violation of the emperor's ex-
press order the statement was made
that Finland was outside of the provi-
sions of the decree. In the meantime
information concerning the crime had
reached ST. Petersburg, and was fully
cabled from that point without any
attempt on the part of the authorities
tn say what should or should not go.
When the correspondents in Rus
STA learned last February that they
could send freely, without reference to
the censor, anything they wished, they
were inclined to be skeptical. I be-
lieved when / began to file dispatches,
1 should find that references objection
able to the Russian government would
be stopped on some trivial excuse, or
at least modified.

The Importance of Choosing GOOD

The importance of Choosing Good
Varieties and Good Trees.
Editor Record:-It was with much
interest that I rear in Saturdays Re-
cord an article by Mr. Hagerman. on
apple culture in the Pecos Valley. and
l wish to d to what he has already
said. Amongst the best apples, not
mentioned : : by Mr.. Hagerman. to
plant in this Valley, are the Red Ro-
mantle, Yellow Newtown Pippin.
Northwest Greening and White Win
ter Pearmain. These varieties are
all highly favored and long keepers,
and the best exporting apples we
have. especially for the German mar
ket. The Yellow Newtown Pippin
leads all other varieties on the Lon
don market, usually bringing ten dol
lars per barrel. The Yellow New
town Pippin can only be successfully
grown in a few places in the United
States, the largest orchards being in
Virginia and Oregon, and most of
the crop is exported to London.
But a few trees of this variety
have been planted in the Pecos Val
ley, but enough to demonstrate that
they can be successfully grown here.
and when the orchardistS find out
their merits they will be more extern
sively planted.
After selecting the soil for plant
ing, as pointed out by Mr.. Hager-
man, the next most important thing
to consider is the quality Of the tree
to plant. If the ~orchardist wishes the
best results he should not plant any
thing but a f1rst-class tree. Here is
where the farmer too often fails, by
not properly selecting the trees he
wishes to plant, too often buying
trees because he thinks they are
cheap and not considering the results
to be obtained. Respectfully,
