Investing For Profit

My magazine, Investing For Profit" (which Pll send free) is worth $10 copy to any man who intends to invest any money, how ever small who has money invested unprofitably or who can save $5 or more per month, but who hasn' t learned the art of investing for profit.
 It demonstrates the real earning power of money-the knowledge financers and bankers hide from the masses.
 It shows how to invest small sums and how to make them grow into fortunes-the actual possibilities of intelligent investments.
 It reveals the enormous profits bankers make and shows how one can make the same profits safely.
 It explains how stupendous for tunes are made and why they are made-how $1 900 grows to $22, 900.
 To introduce my magazine, write me now, mention this paper and I'll send it six months free.

DEATH OF s. M. GULLOM
Clerk Of the Supreme Court Passes Away on Monday Was Nephew
 of Senator Cuii0m

Shelby M. Cullom, Clerk of the Supreme Court of Arizona, died at Phoenix Monday afternoon. The end came peacefully after a strug- gle of nearly twelve years against the inroads of consumption. which Cullom, by display of superior grit, prevented from claiming him as a victim until today.
 With the deceased at the time of his death were his wife. Elias F. Dunlevy, Clerk of the District Court, the nurses. physicians and few friends.
 Last night. Cullom, who had been in his usual health for several days. was suddenly taken worse. It was seen that the end was only matter of a few hours. Close friends of the dying man were called to his bedside to bid him his last goodby ,s. He spoke to several of them short time before death came.
 Mr. Cullom when he first came to Arizona lived in Flagstaff for sometime being at that time em- ployed in the office of the Arizona Lumber & Timber comapny.
 Cullom was appointed Clerk of the Sureme Court by Chief Justice Edward Kent and Associate Justices R. E. Sloan, F. M. Doan and Davis. October 17. 1903. succeeding James N. Cox.

the Indian nations, and who had cele-
brated his first day in town by shoot
ing two men who declined to get off
the sidewalk, so that he could ride his
horse more comfortably there.
Bill Watson, the sheriff of Ellisville,
was a heavily built man, sandy haired,
red-mustached, and solid. His legs
were bowed and his carriage awk-
ward. He had thick, clumsy looking
fingers, whose appearance belied their
deftness. Bill Watson had gone
through the Quantrell raid in his time.
1t was nothing to him when he was
to be killed. Such a man is careful
in his shooting, because he is care
less of being shot, having therefore a
vast advantage over the desperate
of two or three victims, who does not
yet accept the fact that his own days
are numbered. The only trouble in
regard TO this new bad man from
below was that his mental attitude
on this point was much the same as
that of Sheriff Bill Watson. There
fore the sheriff was extremely careful
about the oiling Of the cylinder.
He finished the cleaning of his six
shooter and tossed the oiled rag into
the drawer of the table where he
kept the warrants. He slipped the
heavy weapon into the scabbard at
his right leg and saw that the string
held the scabbard firmly TO his trouser
leg, so that he might draw the gun
smoothly and without hindrance from
its sheath He was a simple, unpre-
tentious man; not a heroic figure as
he stood. his weight resting on the
sides of his feet, looking out Of the
window down the long and wind-swept
street of Ellisville.
Gradually the gaze of the sheriff
focused, becoming occupied with the
figure of a horseman whose steady
riding seemed to have a purpose other
than that of merely showing his JOY
in living and riding. This rider passed
other riders without pausing He
came up the street at a gallop until
opposite the office door, where he
jerked up his horse sharply and
sprang from the saddle,
"Mornin', Bib" he said.
"Mornin', Curly" said the sheriff
pleasantly. ''Lookin' for a doctor!
You're ridin' perty fast"
Nope" said Curly Reckon it's a
shade too late for a doctor"
The sheriff was gravely silent
After while he said. quietly:

Marketing Fruit.

A. L. Hatch in an address before
the Wisconsin State Horticultural So
ciety. said:
There is a general impression that
to keep fruit well, fruit should be
clicked before it is fully matured. 1t
is true that dead-ripe fruit does not
market well, and soft fruit Is at
discount in all markets. 1t is also
true that some fruits, like strawber-
ries, will color up and become appar-
emily ripe In two days or less. With
some fruits, notably the apple and
peach, my observation and experience
are that they keep best if fully grown
and well colored when picked. Not
only this, but green fruit will never
become of good quality and is often
extremely poor. II you do not believe
this, try it on your Wealthy apples.
No fruit can mature unless the tree
or plant upon which it grows has
good healthy foliage the entire grow
ing season; hence one necessity for
spraying.
Another essential in marketing
fruit is to prevent bruising. This
ing from the first to the last of the
life OF the fruit. 1t means taking the
fruit directly from the plant or tree
to the package in which 1t goes to
market, with the least possible han
ding. In apples | have already sort
ed as l picked and pack at once in
| the orchard. OF course, | continue
sorting all fruit as long as 1t is in
sight, always throwing out imperfect
fruits until the package is ready to
cover.
In packages | have used barrels,
bushel baskets and boxes for apples
For home market where packages can
be returned bushel boxes are con
venient and best, but for shipment
prefer barrels. For plums | know OF
nothing better than one-fifth bushe
baskets, with side Slated, raised GOV
er with Stats set somewhat closer
than for peaches. For cherries, black
berries, strawberries, gooseberrie'
and currants | prefer the sixteen
quart crate with wooden boxes. Fol-
raspberries / use twenty-four-quar
crates.
Where reasonable contracts can bt
made with reliable grocers and mer
chants, and where deliveries can b.
made with reasonable certainty, tina
method of marketing is usually salts
factory. But whatever method o
marketing is adopted, the shipper AM
grower should have telephone connec
ton with their markets and full infoI
nation about their market at the LAT
est possible moment before ever
shipment.

The Roots of Everqreens.
Green Co., Ill.

The roots Of evergreens differ very
much from the roots of deciduous
trees, and for this reason cannot be
treated in the same way when ever
greens are being transplanted The
roots of these trees exude a gummy
substance that remains moist while
the roots are moist, but becomes dry
and hard and impervious to water
when exposed to sun and dry air
Many evergreens are killed by being
dug and their roots allowed to dry in
the air. After that the little rootlets
are unable to perform their natural
functions when the trees are again in
the ground Keep the roots moist and
get the evergreens planted as soon as
possible. Then the number lost from
transplanting viii be small We have
heard men say that they did not care
to put out evergreens because they
were never able to make them grow.
but we believe If they will keep the
roots moist from the time they are
taken from the ground till they are
again in the ground, and then have the
new soil packed hard around the tree
roots, they will have very little trou-
BILE with transplanted evergreens.

CHAPTER XIX.
Bill Watson.

Bill Watson.
The sheriff of Ellisvile sat in his
office oiling the machinery of the law.
which is to say, cleaning his revolver.
There was not yet any courthouse.
The sheriff was the law. Twelve new
mounds on the hillside back of the
Cottage Hotel showed how faithfully
he had executed his duties as judge
and jury since he had taken up his
Office at the beginning of the cow
boom" of Ellisyiile. His right hand
had found somewhat to do, and he had
done it with his might.
Ellisville was near the zenith of its
bad eminence. The entire country had
gone broad-horn. Money being free,
whisky was not less so. The bar of
the Cottage was lined perpetually.
Wild men from the range rode their
horses up the steps and into the bar
room, demanding to be served as they
sat In the saddle, as gentlemen should.
Glass was too tempting to the six
shooters of these enthusiasts, and the
oarkeeper begged the question by
slowing away the fragments of his mir
ror and keeping most of his bottles out
rf sight. More than once he was asked
to hold up a bottle of whisky so that
some cow-puncher might prove his
skill by shooting the neck off from
the flask. The bartender was tact
turn and at times glum, but his face
was the only one at the bar that show
ed any irritation or sadness. This
railroad town was bright, new thing
for the horsemen of the trail-a very
joyous thing. No funeral could check
their hilarity; no whisky could daunt
their threats, long scared with alkali.
1t was notorious that after the civil
war human life was held very cheap
all over America, it having been seen
how small thing is a man, how little
missed may be a million men taken
bodily from the population. Nowhere
was life cheaper than on the frontier
end at no place on that frontier OF
less value than at this wicked little
city.
The sheriff of Ellisville looked
thoughtful as he tested the machinery
OF the law. He had a warrant for q

The Orchard on Pasture Lands.

The Orchard on Pasture Lands.
In regard to planting an orchard on
pasture land that has had no prepare
ton previous to this, | would advise
that the owner pillow the soil as early
in the spring as possible to kill grubs
and all insects and set the trees thirty
feet apart each way. Plant them two
inches deeper in the earth than they
grew in the nursery. l would also
suggest that he take a bucket of soap
suds and wash the trees twice, first
of May and the last, as this treatment
tends to harden the bark and kills any
insects that may be upon them.
would suggest further that he buy the
trees as near home as possible, in or
der to secure trees that have not been
out of the ground long, and plant such
varieties as are best suited to his soil
or the neighboring soil, | should have
said. We have the Ben Davis as the
most reliable apple crop in this vicin-
ity think If he will follow this plan
and cultivate the orchard for two
years, viz, plant corn or potatoes, and
keep the grass out Ito prevent the raw
ages of the field mouse), he will have
an orchard that is all right.
