Inc Northwest farm and Home,
published by Leigh r. Freeman in
this city. is showing marked i'm
prOvement in eacn successive issue
and indicates a prosperous condition
tht can but be gratifying to the
nustling publisher. The last number
is a handsome edition, typographical
ly. the composition and presswork
being of the highest order, while
the matter contained is timely, we'll
edited and interesting. All three of
the publications being sent out by
Mr.. Freeman are a credit to him and
are growing in popularity. The in
crease in business recently made lar
ger quarters necessary. and the size
of the Farm and Home building was
almost doubled, giving ample room,
conveniently arranged for both the
business offices and mechanical de-
partment.

THE TELEGRApHERs' STRIKE

One reads with some surprise the
statements of the Great Northern and
Northern Pacific railways TO the eff
feet that all the vacancies caused by
the strike of the operators have been
filled, that passenger and freight
trains are everywhere running on
time and without interruption and
that the strike Is over so far as the
a statement of conditions just the
opposite from the operators. The
latter claim that they are bound to
win out and secure a favorable con-
sideration of their grievances, and
profess to be pleased with the out
look from their point of view. 1t is
freely asserted that several of the
other railroad employees organiza.
lions are in sympathy with the strik-
ing Order of Railway Photographers
and that. If necessary, in order to as
sist the operators in getting what
they ask, enough of these organiza-
tions--switchmen,f iremen, engineers
and cOnductOrs-tO tie up the two
roads from st. Paul to the coast will
go out and remain idle till the
trouble is finally settled.
Notwithstanding the positive asser-
lions of botn sides, 1t is apparent that
the strike is not settled, one way OF
the other. The roads and the men
involved are not the only losers
Shippers are being subjected to q
great deal of uneasiness and are
handicapped by the uncertainty at
tending the shipment of freight, es.
pecially that of a perishable nature
The loss sustained in total is very
great and all hope for an early settle.

CHANGE IN OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES

County Superintendent Dickey is
closing up the years work in his
office preparatory to turning it over
to his successor. Mr.. Jacobson, on the
first of the coming month. A sum-
mary of the superintendent annual
report is printed on another page,
and will be found both interesting
and gratifying to patrons of the
schools.
Few officials retire from positions
OF trust bearing with them so much
OF the esteem and good will of the
people they have served as Mr..
Dickey does. He is conceded to be
one of the ablest educators and best
superintendents in the state, and he
has spared neither talent nor energy
in discharging his duties. Faithful,
prompt action has attended every de-
tall not one of which he has consid-
. cred small or unimportant. His
splendid business qualifications have
been of value TO the county in the
1urtherance of its educational inter
ests. He has left an indelible i'm
print upon the school history of
Yakima that will be seen and felt
Tor many years to come.
There is no reason to fear that the
change will endanger the interests
OF our schools, however, for Mr..
Jacobson brings to the Office an
ability founded upon years of expert
erce as an instructor. and is well
qualified to FIJI the position accep-
tally. The Yakima county schools
were never in so good a condition as
at this time, and they are lust enter
ing upon period of their existence
that promises TO he of great useful
ness to the attendants ard to the
world in general.

Eclipse Causes Cold Weather.

The. present cold weather is gen
orally attributed and is in all proba-
bility due to the eclipse of the moon,
which occurred Mondy evening, be-
ginning about 1880 and being WISH
BILE here for about half an hour. On
Monday night the temperature
dropped until the thermometer at the
observing station in the Mckee reg
istered 4 degrees above freezing
point. 1t is not believed that the
cold will injure fruit or, in fact. any
crop at tbs season, although it may
retard the growth of some. Hops
are free from danger, and some
growers express the belief that the
cold weather will be beneficial rather
than otherwise

ODD FACTS ABOUT GOLD.

Few people know the real color of
gold, because it is seldom seen ex-
cept when heavily alleged, which
makes it much redder than when it is
pure.
The purest coins ever made were
the $50 pieces which once were in
common use in California. Their
coinage was abandoned because the
loss by abrasion was so great and be-
cause their interior could be bored out
and filled with lead. They were oc-
tagonal in shape, and were the most
valuable coins ever minted and cir
culated.
All gold is not alike when refined.
Australian gold is distinctly redder
than that taken in California. More
over, placer gold is more yellow than
that which is taken from quartz. This
is one OF the mysteries of metallurgy,
because the gold in placers comes
from that which is in quartz. The
gold in the Ural mountains is the red
dest in the world.

FERTILIZING ORCHARDS.
W. F. Massey Tells How This Work
Can Best Be Done-Fruit Trees
Need Enriching.

Farmers as a rule realize the i'm
portance of fertilizers on their annual
crops, but when it comes to the or
a peach tree or other fruit tree can
get all it needs from the natural soil
And not only do this, but the orchard
is often expected to furnish hay or
pasture for stock. The result of such
treatment is seen all over the coun-
try in decrepit trees and poor crops
of fruit, and the growers say that the
climate has changed. and they can
nolonger grow fruit as they formerly
did, when in fact soil exhaustion is
at the root of the whole trouble
When one considers the great amount
of plant food that has been taken
from the soil to build up a great apple
tree, and that crop of apples takes
from the soil mineral matters to
thrice the extent that a crop of wheat
of rs bushels per acre will take, the
reason for the failure of the fruit
becomes apparent. In the early
growth of an orchard we want the
trees to develop fast, and hence we
fertilize the soil with complete fer
tiliZer and grow some truck crops
in it that need such feeding. But
after the tree has gotten into a bear
ing condition we can put the land in
grass and cut it several times during
the season, and let the cut grass rot
on the land, and can thus supply all
the nitrogen needed, especially if
clover is. grown. Plenty of white
clover among the grass, well supplied
with acid phosphate, and potash
mixed five parts of the first to one of
the last, will supply in 400 pounds per
acre what the fruit needs for its per-
lection. Try this and see if the fruit
does not respond.

STRENGTHEN THE STOMACH
Or. Williams Pink Pills Really Cure
Indigestion Instead of Merely
Relieving Symptoms.

There are plenty of remedies by which
you can relieve for the time heartburn,
pain and gas on the stomach and can
smother nervous sensations and induce
artificial sleep. You can humor your
stomach by giving it predigested food.
But when you take your next meal all
your trouble begins afresh.
There is only one sensible thing to do.
Strengthen the stomach and do away
with the necessity for drugs and arti-
fetal foods. The best remedy ever found
for this purpose is the one that was used
by E. E. Strong, of Capleville, Shelby
county, Tenn.
For years." he states, 81 suffered
greatly from indigestion. I tried many
different remedies and some of them
would relieve me for time, but the
trouble always came back. About six
months ago had an unusually severe
attack, and while tried everything I
had ever heard of, found that none of
the ordinary remedies would reach the
difficulty this time.
lone day read in Memphis paper
how DR.. Williams Pink Pills had cured q
Michigan woman, a sufferer from chronic
dyspepsia of most stubborn type. /
then tried the same remedy and it
proved just as successful in my case. I
took only three boxes, and was cured. I
have not had the slightest symptoms of
indigestion SINCE"
The tonic treatment has sound prin.
ciple as its basis, and abundant success in
actual use. Multitudes of cases that had
defied all other remedies have been cured
by DIR. Williams Pink Pills. The pills
actually make new blood and strike at the
root of all diseases caused by bad blood.
They contain no harmful stimulants or
opiates. Every dyspeptic should read,

SUGGESTIVE POINTERS.

Snow makes good covering for the
wheat fields, but poor one for har-
vest implements.
Beware of bran which is adulterated
with rice hulls. This mixture disa.
grees with many animals.
Now be careful. Look ahead. Don't
swamp prices by dumping on the mar
ket. all at once, too much of this big
harvest.
Is the grass on your lawn thin and
OF poor quality? Scatter some fresh
seed and good dressing of wood
ashes over it.
There are some things it isn't really
worth while to try. For instance il
is not worth while trying to raise
hornets for profit.
