UINTAH RESERVE
ORDER EXEMPTING QUARTER OF
MILLION ACRES IN UTAH AND
SOUTHERN WYOMING.
Land Includes Large Private Holding
Represented by Alternate Sections
Originally Granted to Railroad
Money for Wyoming Hatchery for
State or National Park.

Washington, March 22.-Chief For
ester Pinchot announces that about
ESQ., 900 acres of lands lying in Uintah
county. Utah, and in Southern Wyo-
ming, would be exempted from the or
der extending the Uintah forest re-
serve. This exemption is made on the
recommendation of Senators Smoot and
Sutherland who took the ase up at the
recommendation of L. A. Callister, John
C. Austin and Commissioner Mackay,
who have been here in regard to the
matter.
Now Held by Private Owners.
1t appears that the land embraced
within the tract which has been ex-
tempted includes large private holdings
represented by alternate sections that
were originally granted to a railroad
and are now held by private owners
The lands are valuable for grazing pur-
IpOses and the deputation which came
from Utah claim to represent the sheep
raisers. 1t was explained at the for
estry bureau today that it was not the
policy to include in the forest reserves
tracts of lands which are broken up

The Russ prints a detailed account
of the execution, from which it ap-
pears that when Schmidt received the
news that the authorities had refused
to commute the death penalty he wept
for the three sailors, his companions,
saying they were 50 young and honest,
and he would prefer to die alone.
The condemned men were taken to
the small deserted island of Borizan
and were shot at sunrise.
Schmidt addressed his executioners,

He met his death with head up and
eyes open.
The firing party was stationed at a
distance Of fifty PAGES.
Two of the sailors were killed at the
first volley and one more at the third.
Schmidt did not fall until the fourth

When the Oregon Legislature comes
TO select a United States Senator next
winter, Republican members will vote
for the election of a Republican to that
high office, and Democrats will vote
for a Democrat. Those candidates
for the Legislature who are subscrib-
ing to pledge No. l" of the Direct
Primary Law are not doing so because
they want to sign it but because they
are afraid not to sign it. After the
June election, the successful candi-
dates will be busy trying to find some
excuse TO break this pledge, and the
greater number of them will succeed
In their efforts. No sane person will
believe that Republican Legislature
would senda Democrat oWashIr gton;
nor would the Democrats have the
faintest notion Of electing a Republi-
can, Senator, should they be successful

A PERFECT HAND.
How Its Appearance Became Fa-
miliar to the Public.

The story OF how probably the most
perfect feminine hand in America be-
came known to the people is rather
interesting.
AS the story goes the possessor of
the hand was with some friends in a
photographers one day and while talk
ing, held up a piece of candy. The
pose of the hand with its perfect con-
tour and faultless shape attracted the
attention of the artist, who proposed
TO photograph it. The result was a
beautiful picture kept in the family
until one day, after reading a letter
from someone inquiring as to who
wrote the Postum and Grape-Nuts ad-
vertisements, Mr.. Post said to his
wife: Eve receive so many in
quiries Of this kind, that it is
evident some people are curious to
know, suppose we let the advertising
department have that picture of your
hand to print and name it A Helping
Hand" (Mrs. Post has assisted him
in preparation Of some of the most fa-
nous adyertisements.)
There was a natural shrinking from
the publicity, but with an agreement
that no name would accompany the
picture, Its use was granted.
The case was presented in the light
of extending welcoming hand to the
friends Of Postum and Grape-Nuts, so
the picture appeared on the back cov-
ers Of many of the January and Feb
ruary magazines and became known to
millions of people.
Many artists have commented unon
it as probably the most perfect hand
in the world.
The advertising dept. of the Postum
Co. did not seem able to resist the
temptation to enlist the curiosity of the
public, by refraining from giving the
name Of the owner when the picture
appeared, but stated that the name
would be given later in one of the news
paper announcements, thus seeking ia
Induce the readers to look for ard read
the forthcoming advertisements to learn
the name of the owner.
This combination of art and COM
merce and the multitude of inquiries
furnishes an excellent illustration of the
Interest the public takes in the personal
and family life of large manufacturers
whose names become household words
through extensive and continuous an
nouncements in newspapers and period
! icals.

WHEN THE PLANTS FAIL.
Atmosphere in Our Homes Too Dry
Insects Attack Plants in
Dry Atmosphere.

The amount Of pleasure derived
from growing plants depends entirely
on their condition A hardy plant in
tin can is a more hopeful and in
spring sight than mighty palm with
yellowipg and detected edges.
Here are some of the reasons why
plants refuse to thrive indoors:
Plants in bloom that have been
bought of florists have been forced
into flower by means of artificial heat
and moisture. To keep such plants
they must be moistened frequently,
letting the pot rest in a basin half full
OF water until the plant has absorbed
enough water and the top layer Of
earth is damp. The leaves should be
sprayed with a flower spray or gently
washed off, according to their size.
When the plant has not been forced
watering must be adapted to its indi.
yidual needs. A cactus or other sue.
cuent plant requires less water than
robust foliage plants, for instance,
Many of the SLOW. growing cactacea
need hardly any water during the
winter months unless they are in a
very warm ROOM Ferns, however, need
to be watered and sprayed frequent,
ly, and the slightest neglect in this
respect will do the plant great injury,
The water should, if possible, he soft
Rain water collected for the purpose
is best for ordinary use. Palms and
foliage plants require spraying every
other day in winter, if kept in rooms
where the temperature is high The
proper temperature of the room in
which plants are to thrive should be
between 65 and 70 degrees. This will
suffice for all plants, even tropical
ones. The temperature is often too
dry in the American dwelling house,
and many kinds of insects attack
plants in a dry atmosphere. Frequent
spraying helps to overcome this
trouble, but when the green fly makes
its appearance on the house plants il
must be fought either with strong to-.
bacco smoke or by dipping the foliage
in weak tobacco water Young shoots
should be busted with tobacco powder
The red spider which attacks plants
if kept too dry can be got rid of by
washing with a strong solution of fiji
tree oil.
Diseases arise from injudicioua
watering draughts, previous attacks
of insects or bad drainage.
MiIdew on the house plant is caused
by sudden chills. 1t attacks young
shoots particularly
When the leaves Of a plant turn
siclily yellow, something is generally
the matter with the root, and the plant
should be turned out and examined
If the cause is not apparent re.
moval of the old soil, repotting in
fresh and suitable soil, will effect
cure
Roots of house plants are often
found to be potting if the plant is al
lowed to stand in water
Plants most suitable for indoor
blooming during the winter arc, be.
sides, the fern varieties, carnations,
Persian violets, primulas, begonias,
and many kinds of bulbous plants,
such as hyacinths, narcissi, lilies,
lily of the valley, etc-N. Y. World.
