Judge Stevens made some very pc
culiar statements in regard to grant
ing the temporary injunction against
the city council of Grand Junction
From what we can understand Judge
Stevens is not very greatly Impress
ed with his Gunnison decision, now
that he has been presented with the
law In the matter more fully. We
have been told that he said that had
he been presented with the law in
the matter as fully, as he was by the
defendants attorneys In the case of
this city. there might have been n
different Judgment rendered in the
Gunnison case. But he contended
because he had made such decision
in that case he would have to grant
the injunction in the case of this
city. From q logical standpoint this
does not seem good reasoning. We
connot see under what argument
Judge stevens can Justify his inter
ference with some probable action of
legislative body, nor do we think
that his contention will be upheld
In the higher courts. If the ailega-
tions made by the plaintiff against
a majority of the city council had
been proven to the satisfaction of
Judge Stevens, there might has been
some virtue in his granting the in
junction, but there was nothing PROV
en-, The city was not about to make

The effort being made by the man
agement of the two fruit growers
associations of this city. to extend
the territory of their business oper-
atlons, is a most commendable one.
So long as this city and the fruit dist
ricts of the county was dependent
upon the handling of the fruit in
very circumscribed territory. the
prices obtained for fruit. was Just
what the commission men desired to
give Now il is question of distri-
button OF the fruit into such terri
tory that is anxious for the grade of
fruit produced in this valley With
territory that has no boundary
this country and with the reputation
already enjoyed by our fruit. we can
exploit the entire country and Sc
cure prices which we could not other
wise do. II is the very superior qual
ity of our fruit that commands the
prices throughout the country and
our reputation once fully established
1t Will never be a very great problem
to sell all the fruit that we can raise
Sometimes the question has been rnis-
ed whether we can market all the
fruit which will eventually be rails
ed in this county We believe that
there need be no question of concern
upon that poitn. The move being talk
en- to distribute the fruit over a wider
range of territory. is the commence
ment of the solution of this problem.

FEATHER PULLING.

If there is any one vice more annoy
ing than others among poultry, it is
that of feather pulling.
One cannot imagine how firmly set
the habit will become until he has
seen flock which has acquired it.
Hens will actually leave their food
to go and pluck feather from the
neck of others, and no sooner has a
tiny pin feather made its appearance
than it is pulled out and eaten.
Strange as it may seem also, the
hens will submit to the torture and al.
low their necks and breasts to be kept
bare all the time
We usually hear of this bad habit
this season Of the year, probably be
cause the fowls are confined and
fail to get something which nature re.
qaires
We have never yet found anything
that would break them of the habit
clipping their beaks will not; neither
will the most nauseating drug that
can be applied to the feathers.
Sometimes if they are given their
liberty and compelled to go out in the
fields and search for food they will
forget the habit but as rule they are
almost worthless after they once be-
gin.-Home and Farm.

That here I long for, but which all
take wings
The riches 1 have not, the mousse
the lands,
And 1 will lay away the bird that
sings,
The cloud that shades the ever-burn-
ing sun,
The rest that will take when toll
is done,
The mountain peaks I've longed 70
see,
The rivers that adown the mountains
run.
The restless ocean and the cool soft
wind,-
These 1 could never leave at last be-
hind;
I've always longed for them through
life, but still
Have only had them safe WITHIN my
mind
And I would lay away so tenderly
The friend l wished one day to see
The love that missed me all these
lonely years,
Waiting amid my treasures there Ior
me.

TREES G1RDLED BY NICE.

An interesting feature of the horti.
cultural exhibit on the Maine farming
train was a maple of bridge grating
in which ordinary scions were used
to bridge over the gap made by field
mice in the trunk of small apple
tree the ends of the scions being
whitfield down and inserted under the
bark both sides of the gap.
This plan is no doubt successful,
but is not needed so often as might
appear. AS a rule the mice do not
absolutely girdle the trees. The writ
er has known cases where a three or
four-inch band of bark was apparently
removed entirely showing the white
wood all round. The trees so dam
aged were expected to die and small
trees were set nearby to take their
places but the trees lived and the
wound healed over. Evidently the
soft wood next to the bark was able
to carry enough sap to sustain lie
until the injury healed.
In fact it is seldom that the writer
has known tree to die from mice
glrdling. If the tree is not very
large one a rough-and-ready way to
reclaim it will be to cut it off just be-
low the injury caused by the mice. A
new sprout will grow very fast and
soon replace the tree. But from ex'
perience, l should simply smear over
the wound with grating wax to pre-
vent drying out and should expect
that at least nine out of ten of the
trees would recover and grow without
much of a setback-G. B. Fiske, Mid

GOING TO THE BOTTOM.

Extracts from an address delivered
by ]. c. Haifleigh, before the Jas
per County, Iowa, Farmers Institute:
While there can be no set rule for sue
cessful farming, as the condition of
soil and weather must be considered
on the farm as in all lines of practical
business, the aim should be to go to
the bottom of things and understand
thoroughly the why's and wherefores.
The farmer has many obstacles to
contend with in his daily duties about
the farm premises. He is called upon
constantly to decide methods of seed
ing, breeding, feeding, harvesting and
so forth, which are of vital Importance
to his success.
If he would seed his land properly,
he must handle his soil and put it in
a good state of tilth for the reproduc-
ton of the seed. Every crop planted
should be placed in rotation; that
means the getting out of the soil the
most there is in it with the least pos
sible loss CT fertility. The seed should
be selected of the best strains and
freed from impurities; which means
the use of tanning mill if home grown
seed is used.
In breeding stock there comes the
Necessity of determining the type best
suited to the farmers conditions and
surroundings The "hit or miss" meth
cd in breeding if followed by the farm
er means that he is a loser. He
must follow some definite type and
breed for a purpose. Such a type
must be selected that will mean prof
it every year in the face of the strong
est competition.
The harvesting of crops means a
large amount of hustling at the right
time and involves a study of condi-
tions in the reduction of expenses to
a minimum. The farmer today not
only must understand how to raise a
Large crop from his acres and produce
tine stock but he must also understand
the bess methods to pursue in dispos'
ing of the crop and stock at profit.

TOO MANY HENS IN A HOUSE.

The main idea in keeping large
number of fowls in one house is to
care for them more easily, but there
are always risks to run which can not
be avoided even by the most expert
enced and careful worker. All things
considered, the plan of having one
roof cover the poultry house, no mat
ter how large, is advisable, but the
matter of division is thing to be Sc
riously considered In our own expert
ence we like the scratching shed d.
visions better than anything else. This
is worked out by building roosting'
room, then a scratching-shed, then
another roosting-room, another
scratching-shed, and so on to the end
of the house. This idea is that each
house has its scratching-shed, which
is located between two roostinS'
rooms except at one end.

such trees to the native forest trees,
for number of the nut-bearing trees,
nursery grown, can also be planted to
advantage.
Wherever the American sweet
chestnut grows naturally it will pay
to set young trees of this class and
care for them till well established
The same applies to the varieties OF
the walnut. The pecans, almonds and
other nut-bearing trees ought also to
be planted, where they will grow well,
as a source of profit Independent OF
the wood.
In every State, men who know, are
urging this nut planting, but our PEG.
pie do not wake up to it's Importance
very fast. The late Governor Hogg
of Texas, did much in his State to
encourage nut tree planting, and the
Importance of his work was very close
to his heart, evidently, for he is re
ported to have made this dying re
quest: Il want no monument o.
stone; plant at the head of my grave
pecan tree, at the foot walnut tree.
and when these shall bear, let the
nuts be given to the people of the
State so that they may plant them and
make Texas land of trees
There are other States in the Union
that need nut trees as badly as Texas.
and they will only be set through the
individual efforts of farmers and to
them the appeal is made to begin now.

jap Farmers Know no Window Glass

Some of the institutions on Japanese
railways are peculiar to that coun-
try. One of these is smear of paint
across the windows of third-class car
riages. This is made necessary be-
cause thousands of native travellers
in Japan, accustomed to only paper
walls for letting in light
have no knowledge of glass.
It's utter transparency leads
them to believe that the window Is
simply hole in the side of the car.
With painful results many native pas
sengers have stupidity attempted to
stick their heads through the glass.
For long time ambulances from re-
ceivirg hospitals had to meet nearly
every train arriving in Japanese
cities and hence the streak of paint
is warning to the Oriental farmer
from the back country that there is
something more than atmosphere in
the window.
