Special to Times Republican,
Muscatine, Aug. 1.-THE mother of
William Nagel, who is charged with
the murder of Carl Brady on Island B
above the city, has come to her sons
defense. She claims Josephine Collette
has had an evil influence over her son
and practically had him hypnotized.
She also claims the Collette woman
carried revolver all the time and
knew how to use it.
William Nagel and Josephine Col
lette have been held jointly responsible
for the murder Of Carl Brady on May
Q. 1905. The exhumed body of Brady
showed that he had been killed by the
skull being crushed from heavy blow.
Since the arrest of Nagel and the Col
lette woman they have taken turns OF
accusing each other Of the killing OF
Brady. who was teir neighbor on Is
land B. in the Mississippi river.
Muscatine, Aug. 11.-"Bill killed II
and buried it by the roadside, was the
remark heard by Mrs. Eta Ftayes, a
resident Of South Muscatine, from the
Inns OF Josephine Collette. when asked
~, nor mother what had become OF her
little babe. 1t seems that Mrs. Hayes
was living in washington just three
doors from the Collette family at the
time when Josephine Collette and Will
liam Nagel stole team OF horses. IL
was on this trip, SO Mrs. Hayes says
that the deed was done.
Took Babe Along:
Mrs Raves story is partially as fol-
lows. "When Josephine and VIII
Narel ran off with the team hey TOOK
their baby with them and after Two
weeks, trip they returned without II.
Was at the house when they came IN
and heard Mrs. Collette ask her
slaughter where her babe was and she
said .Rin killed it and buried 1t by the
roadside VIII did not deny the
charge but stood with bowed head.
Too Much Excitement.
When asked why they did not
nrosecute them Mrs. Hayes stated that
shortly after this both man ana wo-
man were put in the penitenttary Tor
the horse stealing and the eXcitemeht
over that sort of stilled the otner
crime and nothing more was said
about 1t.
Tells the Truth.
Josephine always did tell the truth
about anything she did, said Mrs.
Raves. "She would always confess
any wrong doing when questioned
closely and never tried to shield her
self. And another thing, i don't pc
lieye that Josephine killed Brady be-
cause she did not know how to SHOOT
. gun even. Why, when she went TO
school she never was fighting like
many of the other girls She didn't
know how. But, she did great many
other bad things"

CATARRH
a UNIVERSAL DISEASE

II Catarrh usually begins with a cold in
the head, but does not stop there. The
mucous membranes all become inflamed
and secrete a filthy, unhealthy matter
which is absorbed by the blood and dis
tributed to all parts OF the body. The
patient is then continually hawking
and splitting, the nose is stopped up,
the ears have a ringing or buzzing noise.
the throat becomes sore, and as the un-
healthy matter more thoroughly satu-
rates the blood general feeling of des-
pondency takes possession of the system.

down of the cells that compose the
PUPPY mass and reduces it to Shiny
substance that we designate as rot.
The skin indicates what is going on
inside by turning brown in one or two
spots. These spots enlarge in all d.
rections and this indicates the spread
of the rot. At this stage the parts OF
the mycelium that develop at the sur
face of the plum begin to bring forth
fruit in the form of ash-colored spores,
which give an ashy hue to the decay
ing plum. These are the spores that
continue to spread the disease.
Many of the rotten plums continue
to hang on the tree till winter and
are known as mummied plums. They
have shrunken and dried till they are
hard and unsightly, but to them cling
enough spores to spread the disease
the coming year. In some cases, even
the mycelium or thread-like plant in
side the plum retains its life through
the winter and under favorable con-
ditions in the spring begins to grow
and will produce new crop OF spores.
These spores are scattered everywhere
and even fall and terminate on the
blossoms and tender leaves. We show
a. cluster Of these mummied plums.
They should be picked off now and
burned. Not one should be left on the
trees or on the ground. Next spring,
it any rot appears on plums, the fruit
SO affected should be picked off and
burned at once.
In addition, the trees should be
sprayed with diluted Bordeaux mix
ture. Spray first before the blossoms
open and again as soon as the fruit
is we'll formed. Spray twice later, at
intervals of two weeks. Where the
disease has been in an orchard for
several years, more than one season
may be required in which to eradi-
cate it-Farmers' Review.

Is Iron q Fertilizer?

It has not been believed that iron
in any form is what we might call a
real fertilizer in the soil, although we
know that iron gives the color both
TO the soil and to all the plants pro-
duced upon it. There are some ex-
perimenters, however, who believe that
iron sulphate is itself a fertilizer. One
Of these men is & Belgian, who has
been making some experiments on
oats and other cereals. He applied
$50 Kilograms Of iron sulphate, and
by it produced the same effect on
oats as did $50 Kilograms of nitrate OF
soda. In addition, many weeds were
destroyed by the iron sulphate. The
author attributes the general effect of
the iron suIphate solely to the iron,
and not to the sulphuric acid. We are
sure, however, that most of our ex-
perimenters, at least those on this side
of the water, will be very slow in &C
cepting the conclusions of this eX-
perimenter While iron does enter
into the formation of plants, yet it is
TO a very limited extent. The advan-
tage resulting from the application as
recorded may be due 10 some other
element rather than to the application
of iron.

dent here. Everybody acquainted

twelve years I suffered from Kidney
Trouble. There was hurting across
my back that made it positive agony
to stoop, and as I am in STOPPING
position nearly all day, you can mag
inc how I suffered. After days work
that any man would think nothing of,
I would be tired and worn out In
fact, l was always tired. I began us

Buv Glover Seed Early.

Usually clover seed is sown very
early in the spring or even late in the
winter. In northern localities it is sown
on the snow in March and further south
is put in in February. The clover
seed should be purchased a consider
able time before it is used, so that
it may be tested. This testing
should be done by counting out a
hundred seeds and placing them be-
tween damp WOODEN cloths inclosed in
reversed plates to keep in the mois-
ture. If the termination is low new
lots of seed may have to be pur-
chased, and this is the more reason
for buying the seed early in the win
ter. Also the testing is more likely
to be done if the seed is purchased
early than if it is purchased late. The
Iate-bought seed is too apt to be scat
tered on the land without the far
mer knowing whether it is fairly
good or not If it fails he does not
know whether the failure is due to
poor seed or something else

The Help of Machinery.

There was a time when the farmer
worked all by himself a small farm
and found it profitable to do all of
his work by hand. Had there been
machinery at that time, it would
have possessed little value for him,
as he could not have disposed of his
surplus for enough money to pay for
his machinery and leave a balance
on the transaction. The transport by
sea was then by sailing vessels and
the transportation over the land by
means largely of OK teams. We can
not imagine the great grain crops OF
today being moved by such means.
If great grain crops had been raised
the grain must have fallen III value
till it would not have paid the cost
of raising, or much of it would have
nodded in the bins. With the prog
ress OF the world came the neces-
sity for the use of farm machinery.
The motive power on the water
changed to steam and great barges
were constructed with enormous car
rying capacity. These could carry
the grain around the world at small
cost per bushel. On the land hun
dreds Of lines of railway opened up
the country, and train-lOads of grain
are now moved in any direction night
and day. 1t is no longer possible for
a community to produce so much
grain that it cannot be shipped out.
The commerce of the world will take
all the grain the farmer can grow.
It is therefore necessary for the
farmer to take advantage of the ex-
istence of machinery for farm use.
The price of grain has fallen greatly
from what it was a hundred or so
years ago, and each acre Of land
must therefore be worked at less
cost than formerly. This the farmer
can do only by the use Of machinery,
and the more improved the machin-
cry the less per acre is the cost of
handling the land. Every farmer
should therefore study the machine
question and learn if he is using fair
~ good machines, or whether he is
using machines that are expensive OF
labor and effective to a less degree
than should be found in farm ma
chimes. 1t is sometimes cheaper to
throw away an old machine than it is
to keep it.

A Question OF Locality.

The practice of opening up" the
tops of apple trees is followed by S.
G. SoverhilI, of Northern Illinois. Mr..
Soverhill has been orcharding in that
locality for about forty years. The
practice is condemned by Edison Gay
lord, of Iowa, who has been orcharding
in that state for fifty years. Both men
have had so many years of experience
that it is not probable that either is
making mistake regarding the prac-
tees allowable in his vicinity. But
this brings us to the appreciation of
the fact that conditions enormously
differ in different localities separated
by only a few hundred miles. We
would like to receive communications
from our leading horticulturists in diff
ferent states and different localities Of
the same state relative to the amount
Of sunscald in their neighb0rhoods and
the general practice Of heading trees
The amount of sunscald existing in
a neighborhood does not seem to de-
pend on the latitude. Mr.. Gaylord has
accurately defined the process when
he says that it is due to the break
ing up of cambium cells by the alter
nate freezing and thaWing. But there
is something more in it than this, for
sunscald seems to be worse in the
colder parts Of the states than in the
warmer parts, though even in the lat
ter some freezing and thawing must
go on. We would like to know how
far south sunscald is experienced.

81 don't talk half as much as you
do" said the preacher to the lawyer,
''yet your voice holds out twice as
long as mine. Why is it?"'
The lawyer said he couldn't tell.
"The difference in the position of
your head when you are talking ex-
plains it," said the elocutionist. "a
preacher looks down upon his con-
gregation, a lawyer looks up at the
judge. That dropping Of the head
cramps the vocal chords and makes
the preachers voice more difficult to
preserve than that Of any other pro-

Brown Rot of PIums.

Last summer the writer visited the
farm of prominent fruit grower OF
Northern Illinois. He had a consider
able number of plum trees, but the
fruit was worthless, as it had been
taken by the brown rot. The trees
had bloomed full and the prospects for
a large crop of fine plums had been
excellent. But before the time came
to gather the plums the dreaded brown
rot appeared and soon spread among
all the trees. The plums soon began
to drop, and the ground was covered
in a few weeks with hundreds of the
decaying plums. Thousands of the
plums still on the trees were affected
on one side and it was seen that the
crop was ruined.
This disease is known scientifically
as Monilia fructigena. The spores at
tack not only the fruit, but also the
blossoms, leaves and twigs. The proc
ess of it's development is about as fol-
lows: A spore falls on a wet plum
and sticks there It sends a filament
into the skin of the plum. This fila
ment develops into a thread-like
growth that permeates the pulp Of the
plum everywhere. 1t is the fOOd-gath-

Facts About Marriaqe Rite.

The historical facts concerning
marriage as an institution are prob
ably only vaguely known to the ma
jority of people, most of whom would
doubtless be surprised to learn that
the institution, as we know it to-day,
is less than 500 years old. Histories
of the marriage ceremony show that
it was not solemnized in church as a
religious rite until the time of Pope
Innocent Ill, A. D. 1892, and'was not
considered a sacrament until 1872
