Not Prejudiced in Case Against
Idaho Senator.

Boise, Sept. 24.-The task of em.
panelling jury to try United States
Senator Borah, charged with timber

position would not deter them in
dealing equal and exact justice as
between him and the United States.
The governments attorneys after
consulting authorities withdrew their
challenge against the jurors who said
they had some opinion as to the ex'
istence of a conspiracy but were not
satisfied of Borah's connection with
it.

VERY IMPORTANT

Productive of More Dam
aging information.

New York, Sept. 24.-Two books
which 1t Is supposed, show the trans
actions by which the Standard Oil
Company of New Jersey took over the
control of ninety other companies
formerly allied with the Standard Oil
Company Of Ohio, cannot be found.
They are wanted by Frank B. Kel.
logg, government counsel, who hopes
by these books to prove that the
Standard Oil Company of New Jer-
sey is really a reorganization of the
company which was dissolved by the
government fifteen years ago for al
legged restraint of trade.
John N. Bensinger, transfer clerk
in the employ of the company's liqui-
dation trustees between 1892 and 1899
when the reorganization was effected,
testified he left the books in the
vaults of the Standard building at No.
&c Broadway in 1900, but a search Of
these vaults failed to reveal them.
Pipe Lines Worked Together.
More information concerning the
contract relations existing between
the Tidewater Pipe Company Of Penn.
sylvania and the Standard Oil Com
pany, was developed today when Rob-
ert Benson. general manager of the
Tidewater Company, was again called
to the stand in the hearing of the
federal suit against the Standard Oil
Company. Benson testified that the
pipe line of the National Transit Com
pany, subsidiary Of the Standard
Oil Company was not completed to
the seaboard until after the pipe line
of the Tidewater Company had been
completed to Constable Rock New
Jersey. The witness said October g..
1883, a contract between the Tide
water Company and the Standard
was ratified by which the business
was divided between the two compa-
nies.
Standard Fixed All Prices.
Benson was questioned at length
concerning the provisions and
contracts which were apportioned
SO IL per cent of the business to
the Standard and II 1-2 per cent to
the Tidewater Company. Benson said
the Standard fixed the price the
Tidewater should pay for its crude
oil and also the price for refined oil
for export. The Tidewater officials
were not consulted about the prices.

Every now and then some natural.

numerical count of known animal

acknowledged that its results are very
uncertain. We are far from knowing
all species, and there is yet delight.

systematic zoology and for biologists
who bestow mutual honors by giving
each others names to some animal

meeting of naturalists at the museum,
to which he presented his Catalogues
Mammalian, the species of rodents
known in 1880 were only $40 in mum.

HOW TO HANDLE MANURE.
Il Should BE Gotten on 10 the lard a.
Soon al Possible.

1t is not question Of saving all the
value Of the manure. In the nature OF
things. that is impossible. The best We
can do under the circumstances is the
question: Is 1t better to let manure re-
main in the barnyard in large heaps
and haul II out twice a year, spring
and fall. or is IL best TO haul II as fast
as nader What are the advantages
OF the latter system? We must re-
member that the manure is never so
rich in fertiliEing value as when first
made II must waste some Of its
value anyway. but hauled out as fast
as made. it wastes less than in any
other way. II piled in large heaps
under shelter. II wastes, according to
recent experiments. rs per cent II
piled up in the open air, 1t wastes alt
per cent From spring to fall we are
Obliged to let the manure accumulate
In the barnyafd. But to prevent as
much waste as possible. we sprinkle
over 1t twice or three times q week
ground phosphate rock. We want the
phosphate in the soil, and we want TO
prevent evaporation, while there is
nothing that makes the phosphate
more available than the fermentation
OF organic matter. So we accomplish
three things In this way. But from the
time the cattle are stabbed In the fall
till the ground Is too soft for wagon
wheels in spring. the manure Is hauled
daily to the fields that are to be plow-
ed for corn.
The advantages of this system are:
I'd The manure is hauled and spread
when the labor will cost the least. (2l
We have clean barnyards. CD We Sc,
cure the least loss from fermentation
and evaporation.
For the summer accumulation, we
find the largest value in hauling 1t out
on to alfalfa or clover sod In the fall
blowing 1t under at once On this land
we plant either corn or potatoes the
next spring.
But the wise farmer will make gen
erous provision for the keeping up oI
fertility In his land He will not be
afraid to buy commercial fertilizers
