Directions for Top Grating.
The method Of grating is: Saw in
three-eighths of an inch on top and
two and one-half to three inches down
the side of limb. Take one Of these
half-moon shaped harness or saddlers'
knives and dress the curf smoothly on
each side. Whittle the scion to fit and
drive 1t in firmly and wax over.
The stocks to be grated up to one
and one-half inches in diameter require
only one scion; those from two to two
and one-half inches should have two
scions set opposite each other. Accord
ing to the above directions those from
three to four inches should have three
| to four scions. The object OF this is to
heal over the old wood as quickly az
| possible and the new growth com.

How a Buffalo Runs.

The world has read the exaggerated
description Of buffalo stampede, but
I don't believe anybody has ever done
justice to the wonderful speed Of a
buffalo when lost from the herd and
trying to catch up, says man of ex-
perience. It is deceptive gait. The
man who never saw it before would
swear that he could outrun the animal
barefooted. eBut the fastest horse
ridden by cowboys couldn't catch a
buffalo when running alone.
Its marvellous lope, steady and en-
during carries it over the prairie at a
speed that would make a race horse
lie down and cry at the end Of the
first mile. But the buffalo keeps this
gait up all day, and at night his great
fanks show no signs of fatigue.

The only obstacle now in the way
of the government establishing a big

funds to acquire title or lease on the
land until congress can make an ap-
preparation for the purchase Of the
tract outright.

this morning and he stated that he
believed springs at the Big Meadows
will supply sufficient water" said
Thomas Drumheller, who was largely
instrumental in the proposition Of
rifle range being taken up by the
army officials.
"Ample water at any event can be
obtained by sinking few wells. 1t is
not a question Of water, but a ques-
ton of funds to acquire title to the
land until the necessary appropriation
for buying it outright can be made.
CAPTAIN Howard's report is favorable
and it is now merely matter of get

of newsdealers that they discontinue

Walla Walla dealers were the only
ones who paid any attention to the
demands.
"Since we began handling the mag
azines again, several union men have
come in and said they would not
trade with us. Our decision to handle
the magazines again is in no respect a
defiance of the union mems demands
but, on the contrary, it was matter
of business with us. Our customers
demanded that we handle the maga-
zines and, rather than lose much Of
their trade. we agreed to put the
magazines on sale."

The new naturalization law passed

days recording the declaration Of in
tention of Walla Walla aliens anxious
to get in under the easier provisions
of the old law.

morning to declare their purpose to
forswear the Car for Uncle Sam
These were George Shoab, Jacob
Brehm, Jacob Schwartz, Gootfried
Hartwig, Henry Hoff, George Hoff,
Philip Freis, and Carl Schafer
The thing that has caused the sour
ry in Russtown the last few days is
said to be provisions in the new law
that every one who would be a citizen
must be able to speak the English
language and, most of all, that no
naturalization papers can be issued
hereafter, even first papers, until go
days after application has been made.
Most important of all no paper can be
issued 80 days before an election.
Time to Learn.
The examination in the English lam
guage does not take place until final
papers are issued, but these must be
applied for within seven years from
the time of taking out the first paper.
Heretofore, there was no limit on the
time in which second papers must be
taken out.
All those taking out papers before
midnight tonight can come in under
the old law. This is the reason for
the Russian advance on the hall of
records during the past few days.
