The little bronze button OF the G.

Charles Perish from burial in the
potter's field. He was sent to Duluth
from Virginia while suffering from
appendicitis to get aid from the
county authorities. The old man was

later. Arrangements were being made
to bury him at the poor farm, but the
Willis A. German post of Duluth

Little is known of him, and no papers
were found to designate the regiment
that he belonged to, but the button
was recognized and the remains we're

at them with a club they snapped at

bankment giving away, precipitating
the wolves down upon him. In the
mix-up he was bitten in the right arm.
Fleeing through the forest, he was
forced to take to tree and there
passed the night in pain and racked
with fear. In the morning he man

Hauling Manure Daily.

Experiments made by the Ohio sta

thrown into the open barn yard and
permitted to lie there for five months
before being hauled to the field it had
value of s2.40 per ton. When drawn
directly to the field as fast as it was
made the value was 1926 per ton.
When the manure was sprinkled with

was made in the stable, thus prevent
ing some loss of ammonia, the value
was 1918 per ton.-Hoard's Dairy

San Francisco Insurance.

The grand total of California losses
is placed by the insurance companies
at S113, Al, $50. Foreign companies
doing business in the United States
report losses of $40, $40, O96, or about
IS per cent. New York companies re-
port losses aggregating s1S,44,00o:
while American companies outside OF
New York report s44, 1927, 400.
It is believed that practically all of
the 1O6 companies suffering losses in
the California disaster will be able to
weather the disaster without default.
1t is not believed, however, that the
net payment Of losses will approximate
much over 10000, 900 in the final ad-
justment: and the payments to a
large extent will be in the form of re-
stored property, rather than cash.
Of course, San Francisco sustains
losses that insurance cannot cover.
Loss of life, loss of business, loss OF
rent, loss of salaries and wages, loss
of profits and dividends, loss Of
domestic and International trade and
traffic, and loss by earthquake dam.
age to realty; the aggregate of these
losses measured in dollars being per.
haps double the losses covered by
fire insurance, and beyond hope of re.
covery. It is believed that it may
take a year to fully clear up the
debris and ruins, and restore the city
to the position where traffic and re.
building may proceed with ease an6
comfortable speed. But, thoroughly
purged by fire and hardship, the new
San Francisco will finally emerge a
cleaner and greater metropolis, and il
is to be hoped will be the gamer in the
end.-Commercial West.

How to Grow PanSies.

The pansy is beautiful, easy to cul-
tivate and most satisfactory for bed
ding purposes. It is quite hardy and
has become one Of the most popular
plants in this country. It has been
so greatly improved by careful cul-
tivation that it is necessary for the
scotsman to give it careful attention
in order to maintain a high quality.
AS the best stock degenerates quickly
unless handled by experts. it is best
for the amateur to buy seed each
year.
Sow pansies if possible in a bed
protected with glass in the fall, early
enough to let them attain considerable
size before cold weather. During the
extreme winter weather they should be
protected, and at the same time al
lowed as much light and air as posi-
BILE. They should be watered occa-
sionally in the winter, but care must
be taken, as too much water will
cause the young plants to rot. In the
spring, when the ground has become
sufficiently warm, the plants should
be taken from their beds under glass.
cleaned and replanted into beds where
they are to remain for the summer.
Much care should be taken in Sc
Letting the location of the bed.
Pansies require a position where it is
cool, and at the same time where there
is plenty of light and air. In such
places they will bloom all summer,
otherwise they will last but few
weeks. A clay soil. we'll enriched,
grow the best pansies. Frequent
sprinkling to keep the soil and foliage
moist is Of great help. When the
pansies are in full bloom it is best to
pick the flowers off each morning.

AYTEFRAUD ORDER CAMPAIGN.


1t is not a favorable sign that every
rich and powerful concern which is
using the United States mails for pur-
poses either clearly fraudulent or ques-
tionable is lobbying and agitating TO
secure legislation restricting the post
master generals power to protect the
malls from such abuse. Several bills
are pending in congress to secure the
passage of which special effort is now
being put forth, but the chief aim of
all of them is to hamper the postal de-
partment in the issuance of so-called
fraud orders" by which the mail of
a person or concern found on investi-
cation to be using the postal service
for fraudulent purposes is stamped
Fraudulent" and returned forthwith
to the correspondent, If known, or to
the dead letter office.
1t is true that in theory the fraud
order procedure is summary, like pro-
Cedure in innumerable other executive
duties, but it has been upheld by the
courts as not violating any constitu-
tional right. The vital point is that 1t
is necessary to combat fraudulent use
of the malls. II no order could issue
through executive function, or only
after final result of ordinary judicial
process, months and even years would
elapse IL the fraud were extensive and
involved rich and powerful interests
the very ones which prey most danger
ously upon a susceptible public through
prostitution of the mails.
!, 1t is precisely such concerns that are
now moving heaven and earth to
weaken the fraud order power because,
as the case stands. IT is a sword hang
| ing over their heads liable TO fall at
any moment with fatal effect. Post
master General Cortelyou has de-
veloped this power against schemes to
| defraud the public until il is a veri-
table terror 10 them, and any man who
uses the mail in pursuance OF cheat
ing purpose does so in peril of sum-
mary forfeiture of the right to receive
mail. The use of the mails thus is OBJ
yiously essential TO the frauds.
There is no objection to safeguard
ing every important property and per
sonal right, provided the power OF the
postmaster general to protect the pub
lie, which is the ineOmparably more
important concern. be ineontestably re
served. With growth of the postal
service there has been a prodigious de-
velopment OF its abuse in turtherancs

49, cANAL AssrREp.


The vote in the senate in favor OF
lock canal is properly regarded as re-
moving that question from the field Of
controversy. since the house had al
ready by an overwhelming majority
committed itself to the same type and
the president has long been known to
favor IL and only waiting opportunity
to go forward with 1t.
It is true eight Of the thirteen mem
bers of the board of consulting engi-
neers favored a sea-level canal, but the
FIVE members who favored lock canal
we're American engineers. Those who,
like President Roosevelt, Secretary
Taft and other canal authorities car
rying the heavy burden OF responsible
ity for the work. have to consider it,,
not only from the mere engineering
standpoint, but also from the stand
points of finance and utility, and al
most with one voice they have decided
in favor of the lock canal. Of which the
expense will be confessedly enormously
less and the time intervening till com
merce can use 1t will be comparatively
short. Moreover, a lock canal can be
converted into a sea-level waterway at
some future time II it be found desir-
able.
It was not till we'll along in the ses-
sion that the issue against the lock
canal was seriously raised in the senate
committee, and then only in a dilatory
way that has dragged until now, but it
was sufficient to hold the whole subject
in suspense and threatened to paralyse
or embarrass gravely operations on the
isthmus. However. all this has at last,
and in the nick of time, been cut short
and the hands of the administration
set free, although the vote in the SEN
ate was dangerously close.
With an untrammelled appropria-
ton for construction work and au-
thority to sell bonds to reimburse the
treasury, the great enterprise can go
forward on an assured basis, and the
administration may be safely trusted
to employ every energy and resource
| to the limit.
