by criminal prosecution or other wise could transfer the decision of that court which first obtained juris- diction to any other court It has more than once quoted, with approval, the observation of Lord Hardwick in the Mayor vs. Pilkington. 2 Atkins. 3o2, where Lord Hardwick said in reference to an order he made enjoining a crim- tnal prosecution, The court granted an order to Stay the proceedings be- cause the question of right was pend ing in q court in order to determine the right, and, therefore, it was rea- sonable they should not proceed by action or indictment until 1t was de- termined.
 "fn all the decisions of the Supreme Court on this question. 1t is emphatic upon which the element of crime is based and the right to do that act is before a competent court. which has Jurisdiction to decide 1t, no other court can afterwards test the matter by a criminal or civil proceeding of any other court
 Tt Is to be observed also of Fitts against McGhee. that the prosecution by indictment under which the proceeding was had in that case. was the mode prescribed by the law of the State for testing the validity of the tolls in that case. Here the remedy, by the ex- press law of the State, to say nothing of the rules of equity, is by a suit in a court of equity against the Railroad Commission. If such law as we now have had been in force. 1t is clear from all of Justice Harlan's opinions that he would not have sanctioned for a moment. the idea of attempting to transfer the same question. elsewhere by indictment in another court.
 Neither the court which rendered that opinion, nor the eminent Judge who wrote 1t, entertained for mo- ment the idea, as is shown by all the prior and subsequent decisions in which that eminent Judge participated. that the Jurisdiction of competent court before whom the very right was pending, could be interfered with in any way by subsequent criminal pro- ceedings. Such Is the unbroken teach ing of the Supreme Court of the United States on this point, to quote from nu- merous decisions:
 When a State court and a court of the United States may each take juris- diction of a matter. the tribunal whose Jurisdiction first attaches. holds 1t to the exclusion of every other until the dutysis fully performed and the Juris diction is exhausted and this rule applies alike in both civil and crirni- nal cases.
 Among the more prominent decis- ions in which this doctrine Is firmly insisted upon, and courts of the State and Federal courts alike, sometimes rebuked for failure to observe the rule, are:
 ''Freeman vs. Howe. 24 How. l50: Buck vs. Colbath. 8 Wall, 334; Taylor vs. Taintor, IS Wall, 366; Ex Parte Crouch, 112 U. S., ITS.
 'aTne Supreme Court of the United States has also held in repeated de- cisions, which are familiar to the pro- fession, that Federal Court which has first obtained Jurisdiction may en- join any attempt in the courts, or e1se- where, to defeat or interfere with that Jurisdiction, either by civil or crfn1i- nal proceedings.

Fertilizer for wheat.

Tn some parts of the East farmers are giving up wheat growing. Many of them think 1t useless to try and compete with the newer and richer soils of the West. Many argue that wheat growing is profitable only on new and rich soil. MT. c. R. McKen- gle, of Westfeld, New Brunswick, un- dertook to see If by the Ase of chemi- cal fertilizers on poor soil he could not compete with Western grain fields.
 He selected piece of dark loam. slightly SraveIiy soil which had had no fertilizer for ten years. It had been in grass, and farmers can readily under stand it's poor condition for grain. In order to test the soil, Mir Mckenzie used nothing on one part of the field. On another part he used the phosphate and the nitrate and in addition, muriate of potash. The object of this was to see which element was the key to a wheat crop on that soil.
 Potash gave the yield. The answer was clear. as the following figures show:
 Yield of Increase
 grain over no Plot. per acre fertilizer 1. No Fertilizer ....... 10 bu. 9. 600 lbs. Thomas Phos-
 phate, 1so lbs. Nitrate
 of Soda .. .... ...... 25 bu. 15 bu. 8. 800 lbs Thomas Phos-
 phate, 1S0 lbs. Nitrate
 of Soda, 120 lbs. Muriate
 of Potash .... q. .... 40 bu. 30 bu. The natural soh gave only 10 bush els The phosphate and the nitrate brought the yield to 25 bushels. but when the potash was added there was an. increased yield of 16 bushels per acre. It is evident that this increase was directly due to the potash, and when we compare the cost of the pot ash with the price received for 16 bush els of wheat we see that few other farm Investments could have paid so well. Consider the price of wheat and straw on an Eastern farm and 1t is plain that no Western wheat field can compare acre for acre with such yield as 40 bushels. The main reason why some Eastern farmers say that wheat will not pay is because they use the wrong kind of fertilizer. They use a smell of nitrogen, peck of phosphoric acid and e pinch of potash. No won der their yield is poor. MT. McKen- zie's experiment shows why. The wheat crop demands potash. If the soil will not supply 1t the fertilizer must do so. Adv.

The spacious edifice was filled to the doc S by an appreciative audience long be fore the services began. The hall was handsomely decorated wilh evergreen and flowers in profusion adorned the stage. The services were impressive and inspiring. The music by Miss Alta Hubbs and singing by Messrs. Lamiman, Hutchinson and Murphy was exceptionally good. Judge Blakely delivered the eulogy and the addres was one of his best efforts. Reese M. Ling, of Prescott, was the orator and he reviewed the history and objects of the order in a masterly way.

 Last night Deputy Sheriff A. F. Harris brought hobo in from Hack berry with a charge of burglary lodged against him. The fellow had gone to the home of John linus, son e distance southeast of Blackberry, and finding no one at home proceeded to load up wagon with all the portab e goods he could lay his hands on. Then hucning a team to the wagon he start ed away. Not wishing to pass in sight of the home of George w. Miller he made an attempt to cross low divide in the hills and got stuck in the soft ground. where he had to abandon the team. Tle horses were tied to a tree, om wAich they later broke ,ose and went home. The ranch boys returning home some hours later took the trail and followed the man until they cap lured him. He was taken to Hack berry and turned over to the officer It is thought that the fellow is de- m ented.
 The capacity of the Kingman rail- road yards has been more than doub- led by the addition of several thous- and yards of trackage and the many changes made throughout. All the warehouse tracks have been cut out from the main passing tracks, so that when cars are spotted at these places they will not have to be switched out | by passing trains. It is understood that the yards are still to be enlarged by the addition of trackage on the north side of the main line.
 As established by the recent survey the dividing line of Mohave and Yava- pal counties is less than One-fourth mile west of Nelson and few hundred yards west of Fort Rock ranch house. In running the line southward the sur veyors gained over twenty-three feet on the line run by the county surveyor of Yavapai county. This line, if con- tinued southward, would give Yuma county more than three miles of Mari cOpa county.
