Where the blossoms of the hybrids
have been closely cut and with as
great length of stem as possible, severe
pruning will not be necessary. How
ever, they will need some attention.
All perpetual bloomers require prun-
ing Immediately after the first profuse
blooming. This will start from the
roots strong young shoots which will
give an abundance of bloom in the fall.
MulchinE,
Now that the hot weather is with
us, 1t will be necessary to mulch the
rose beds. 1t Is advisable to first give
them light mulch of old black ma
nure and thereafter continue to apply
grass clippings from the lawn. Such
mulching Is absolutely necessary IL
one would have succession of bios
SONS from their perpetual hybrids.
Since constant waterings and cultiva-
ton of ones roses and other flowers
Is almost impossible during the hot
season, 1t is gratifying to know that
good careful mulching is even better
than cultivation. for roses, dahlias,
lilies, and In fact all perennials. Be-
fore applying the mulch the ground
should be worked over fine and deep
and left free from all weeds. The
clippings should then bespread evenly
over the surface, working it well I'M
der the leaves. of the low growing
plants, and we'll up around the stalks
OF such tall growing ones as lilies,
etc. Once placed the mulch should not
be disturbed, since its object is to ex-
clude the light and heated air and to
retain the moisture in the soil. Left
undisturbed under the influence of the
rain and dew it becomes felt-like
mat which discourages the growth of
weeds, and retains the moisture. cool
ness and friableness of the soil SO
essential to the welfare of the plant.
The mulch must be added to from
time to time. as the drying out of the
grass renders it much thinner than
when first applied. It is we'll to add
fresh grass as often as twice week,
and for tall growing plants in sunny
exposed places, six or eight inches of
mulching will do no harm. The mulch
may be left on the ground during the
winter and having become decayed.

farmers of our state the advisability
of allowing the young men of the
farms to- visit the Agricultural college

take advantage of the excursions
which Mr.. Hill 80 generously gives the
farmers of the several counties each

LIVE STOCK AND FERTILITY.

The close relation existing between
stock raising and the fertility of the
soil is matter that is becoming bet
ter understood in the Northwest each
year. 1t is a live subject for consider
alton and one to which we cannot
pay too much attention. Diversified
farming is the logical outcome to
all methods of farming and the sooner
farmers realize this, the better 1t is
for the farm, the farmer. and the
country at large. Below we quote
few concise and pertinent remarks
along this line that were made in
an address before a farmers meeting

A NOMINEE IN JAIL.

The Colorado Socialists are getting things mixed, to all Appearances. It will be remembered that ex-Governor steunenberg, of Idaho, was assassinat- ed some months ago. by labor union ists, 1t is charged. and among those accused is William D. Haywood. who Is now in prison at Boise City. Idaho. awaiting a hearing on the charge of murder. Whether he is guilty or inc nocent, is a matter to be determined by the. courts, but the Colorado So- cialists are not waiting for that to be settled and have nominated him for Governor of that State. Of course. there Is no probability of that party carrying the State with any candidate, but the idea of nominating a man for Governor who is now in prison await ing trial for murder is going little farther than usual. It cannot be claimed for them that they believe him innocent, because that belief would not justify their action. The only expla- nation of their act is that they endorse the assassination of the ex-GoYernor and take this method of showing their appreciation of the act.
 Such a cause would not be at all creditable to the Socialists of Cobra do, but it is plain that they put them selves in a position that may result in getting them into q very embarrassing condition, In certain contingencies. If by any chance they should succeed in eiecting him before his trial and then the court should convict him and send him to the gaIlows or the penitentiary. if would be awkward for the party. to nut it mildly. To have a Governor executed for murder would not be complimentary to thsm, and to have him in the penitentiary would be lit- tie less so.
 Mir. Haywood. by the way. has been formally notified of his nomination and has accepted the same in the ring ing words" usual on such occasions.

HISTORY or THE sTH ALABAMA
 REGIMENT.

It ts with great pleasure we an- nounce that The Advertiser will cons- mence with next Sundays issue the publication of the history of the asn Alabama Regiment Its value as d contribution to the history of the da ys Of 'sI-'e5. and of the causes which Sd to the great conflict. will not be doubt ed, when we state that 1t was written by Hilary A. Herbert. the last com mander of that heroic body Of msn The history was written at request of pr. Thomas M. Owen. Director of Ala hama Department of Archives ard History. and The Advertiser Is under obligations to him for allowing it's publication in our columns in advance of book foTm, which may be delayed a long while! as the State as yet has not made provision for preserving in book EgEnl such valuable documents.
 Colonel Herbert was one of Ala bama's best soldiers. Indeed. in an emergencies in our States history in his day and generation he has faltn- fully discharged every duty incu7i- bent upon the good and loyal citizen Tn the introduction to this history ne has performed task for which every citizen of the late Confederacy should thank him. Clearly and eenciseIy he sets forth the causes of difference De- tween the people of the North and south. and fully protects the honor and patriotism of the Southern people.
 While this will be the history of tre sth Alabama Regiment 1t is at the same time a history of the other fegl- ments of Wileox's great brigade, viz.. the sth. 10th. l1th and 14th Alabama.
 This brigade was practically intact throughout the war. and a history oe enc regiment could not well be wrl.- ten without dealing largely with all the others. The student North and South, as well as the heroic survivol s of the great war, can read this histo, y with great and growing interest It is not detailed statement Of personal and re9imental affairs but history m the truest sense of the word.

E Reference Is so often made to the difficulty of convicting the rich and influential vioiators of the law that the words of a prominent judge will be found interesting and pertinent. Judge Charles F. Ahaidon, United States District Judge. in public address to 2 1sar Association used this language;
 say that our administration of the criminal law has broken down. It is an unworkable Tnachine. l knew we penitentiaTy; but l state 1t here as a fair statement Of the administration of the criminal law in America that counsel, so as to make a fight. as we say, in the great majority of cases he can escape punishment for crimo. The Fa sa p csn ss 50 aoa esasne and evidence as to result--not in every cases--in error which. under this per- dice. is viii nulIify a conviction.

 This ia not the language of rant ing Socialist or disgruntled poiiti- elan. The speaker has for some ten years held the position of Federal District Judge in Dakota, and no doubt spoke with due deliberation and q knowledge of what he was saying. as we'll as of the effect his words might have, for he was addressing an assem- blaze of lawyers. The New Haven Register commenting on his language. and using the statements hc made as applicable to the Thaw case. thinks it perfectly obvious that the prisoner has no fear of being convicted. and it is the opinion of fully 75 per cent of the people one meets upon the streets that after g prolonged trial he will escape punishment for his act. It Is of nc importance whatever that he las changed counsel. Whoever finally ap- pears in the case will rely upon the tricks of the profession to confuse the main issue and make conviction tIn- possible. Already everything Is being done that can be done to complicate the issue. As Judge Amidon would say. the trial will be so protracted and enmeshed in complication of pleaa- ing and evidence as Co probably result in error. which will nullify convic- tion"

 His speech was dry and dull. not even interesting to LIS own followers; very academic in delivery and empty facts about which there Is no dispute, but failed to show that his occupancy of the Governors chair would bring
 His appeal to the old soldiers eonsis- ted of a repetition of Mir.

 Speaking, of railroad regulation. he higher in Alabama than in Virginia, North Carolina or Georgia, but failed to explain wherein the Alabama law Is inadeauate or what efforts had or had not been made to enforce it. He claimed that any change Tn the law would have to be made by the Legis- lature, but failed to even say in what aid in bringing about any changes. He stated as flat proposition that the farmers pay the freight failing to in- ciude any other class Of consumers. Among the items on which rates are too high in this State, he mentioned a great many things. which the success fuI farmers of this community raise at home and about the transportation of which they are not at all interest
 He declared himself opposed to un- destrable immigration, and intimated that he did not favor cheap labor; but tory he recognizes the demands of or ganized labor for a living wage and short working day
 He interspersed his remarks with a good many stories, which he told with none of the happy interest of the ra- eonteur, and the audience barely. smiled at most of them.
 He told of his own success Us a faeturer, but failed to tell the secret of his success in the face of high rates and encouragement of public affairs.
 He made the charge so often made the State government has been In the hands of certain crowd for years and that they have done nothing for the farmer, but forgot to tell of the reduction of taxes. the increase of school funds the protection of law. the pension of old soldiers, the redue- tion of public debt. the purification of elections. the prohibition of trusts and pools. all brought about within the past thirty years by the Democrats in charge of the State government and elected bv the party to whom he is now appealing for office

TWO mrx xrD rnrIH ssaxnoDs.

The Advertiser calls special atten- tion to two oommunicstions published in fhis issue ana on this page
 One refers to NIT. Corners lack of ability as an executive ofiicer. as dem- onstrated by his failure to discharge his duty as President of the Railroad comriission. The law Is as plain as words can make 1t that he shall file an annual report within a specified time, yet he allowed the time for last years report to lapse without filing scrap of paper. If lie would 60 neglect this duty in this particular, he would do 1t in others. where his interest or inclination might conflict He complains from January to January of other cficiais being directed unduiy and Of the State being dominated by a machine, yet refuses to discharge a sworn duty while holding everybody else for delinauencies.
 The other communication Is a re- port of what Mir. Conner said in re- cent speech in his usual way of trying to make people discontented with con ditiens in Alabama and his failure to give the Democratic administration credit for the great benefits they have worked out for the people of this state. These two communications are of special interest just at fhis time.
 Lieutenant Governor Cunningham has demonstrated. his ability as an executive officer and as legislator. IffsS Administration of the oifice of Governor for nearly twelve months. was such as to win for him universal commendation. No one has lodged | complaint against him. He showed that he possessed the great qualities of integrity. industry. judicial minded ness and patriotism and never allowed any selfish consideration to interfere with his discharge of duty.
 AS a legislator, he can proudly point to his record and it is now an admitted and demonstrated fact. that Governor JeIks and the Convict Board in adop- ting the present plan of using convicts carried out the plan recommended by lieutenant Governor Cunningham in aa ahle report to the Senate when he was member of that body.
 If the people of the State would de- eide between Conner and Cunningham report what each had done for the State. the latter would be almost the unanimous choice.
