agreed that the trustees Of the New
Y ork Life Insurance Company who

PRESIDENT DEfERS
NAMING A JUSTICE

Washington, March 19.-Secretary
Taft had a consultation with President
Roosevelt and later the. president au-
thorized the issuance of the following
statement regarding the successorship
Of Justice Brown in the supreme court:
"As Mr.. Jutsice Brown will not re-
tire until June, when the supreme
court will take a vacation until the
second Monday in October, and no
public inconvenience can arise from q
vacancy continuing through the vaca-
ton, the president will take further
time to decide the question of Mr..
Browns. successor. Several names,
including that of Secretary Taft, have
been under consideration, but no de-
cision has been reached or is likely to
be reached or announced in the near
future"
Secretary Taft went to the war de-
partment for few minutes before the
meeting of the cabinet. When he was
asked his intentions he directed his
inquirers to the statement issued from
the White House, saying that was the
expression of the presidents views,
and that his (Taft's) lips were sealed.
All that he could say was that the
matter was indefinitely postponed.

Tho Honey Mu.kmelon.

One Of the astonishing things in
vegetable growing or rather in grow
ing vegetables for the express purpose
of supplying the consumer, is the ut
ter indifference shown by the grower
to the matter of quality. The same
thing applies to fruit. 1t would be
excusable il there were no other sorts,
but when there are a dozen more or
less far better than the varieties Of
fered It is strange, indeed, they are
not grown. A family well known to
the writer was especially fond of musk
melons and bought them In large guam
titles until all that were offered them
were so poor in quality they stopped
using them and the producer lost valu-
able trade. The Honey melon, which
has been tested for three years past,
is one Of the promising new sorts. 1t
is nicely formed melon, the skin
green and the flesh yellowish green.

timber Land REPEAL
BILL READY TO REPORT

Washington, March 19.-The SEN
ate public lands committee has virtu-
ally completed the bill to repeal the
timber and stone act and authorize
the sale of all public timber at not
less than its appraised value, small
dealers to be given preference In the
sales. Provision is made giving set
tiers and miners free use of timber for
domestic purposes, the same as in for
est reserves.
An amendment insisted on by Sena-
tor Fulton, of Oregon, will be adopt
ed giving to counties 10 per cent of
the amount of sales in their respective
limits in lieu of taxes.
The committee is also framing bill
to permit homestead entry of agricul-
tura1 land in forest reserves. This bill
is designed particularly to meet the
principal objection to reserves in
Idaho. Senator Dubois is strongly
urging this measure and predicts its
passage.
Mr.. Fulton is the only member Of
the committee opposed to the repeal
of the timber and stone act, but other
Western senators agree with him and
will join him in opposition to the bill
when it comes up in the senate. : In
case it is impossible to prevent its pas
sage by the senate Mr.. Fulton will
seek to increase the amount paid coun-
ties from the receipts of timber sales
from 10 to % per cent.
The Oregon senator is 50 thoroughly
convinced of the inadvisability of the
repeal of the timber and stone act that
he will carry his fight to the house
committee to table the senate bill,
just as it has heretofore tabled SIM
liar bill in the house. He feels GER
tain that this legislation will be killed
in the house, il not in the senate.

The breeding OF hackneys may an

profitable to breed from the best Of

tor. He should aim to produce ami

pleasant disposition, a pure trotting

is always good demand for such ami
mails and at prices that will insure a
profit to the man who breeds and rails
es them, provided they are properly
educated to harness and well fitted for
