A Forestry Suggestion.

The Bradford County Telegraph
says:
Now, when turpentine operators
pay such high leases for pine trees
that oftentimes an acre of trees
brings more revenue to the farmer
than an acre. of corn, it seems that
he should give his woodland little
attention in order to hasten the
growth of the trees. We refer to
the thickets consisting mostly of
Cuban or "s1ash'' pine which spring
up spontaneously in old fields and
around swampy places. These trees
are Of comparatively rapid growth if
the situation is not too wet, and after
fifteen to twenty years are large
enough to be tapped for rosin under
the coup" system. But they would
reach this stage much sooner if
simple method of forestry was
practiced Why should not the farm
er treat his woodland to little "thin-
ming out" as we'll as his corn field?
This process is as beneficial to the
one as to the other.
When the wind blows cold on a
wintry day, making work in the open
field disagreeable, take sharp, light
axe and go to the sapling thickets.
Where the trees average ten feet in
height the smaller ones should be
cut down to let the SUN in and give
more room to the thriftier trees AS
they continue to grow some trees
fall behind, They will eventually be

Hard on Horse Jockeys.

The Maine Farmer reports that it
has heard of law recently passed
by the legislature of Indiana, which
is hard on horse jockeys. We think
it would be a good law for this state,
or any other, why should dishonesty
be any better in trading or selling
horses than any other business? We
recommend the law to the next Flor
ida legislature The Maine Farmer
says:
The Indiana legislature has adopted
a horse-trading law not only forbid
ding the use of drugs or of any ar
ticle to conceal the fact that horse
is sick, lame or defective, but requir
ing the trader to run down his own
horse. The provision adds:
"Whoever shall sell or offer to sell
or exchange any horse Or mule, know
ing the same to be afflicted with 'glan-
ders' or any infectious or contagious
disease or knowing it to be afflicted
with the 'heaves' or to be broken
winded' or a 'cribber' shall conceal
the existence of such disease from the
person to whom he is offering the
animal shall be fined not more than
$500, to which may be added i'm
prisonment in the Jail, or workhouse
not longer than six months.
To show that this does not merely
refer to doping horse or otherwise
taking active means Of concealing his
defects, employing ANY trick, artihce,
drug Or any device to conceal the ex-
istence of such disease or defest,' is
specially made punishable"

starved out by their more vigorous
brethren, but while they live they re-
tard the growth Of the latter and
may as well be cut out of the way first
as last Keep up the thinning-out
process, for it pays. Yet it is well to
exercise some caution, for if given too
much space, the tops of the trees will
start too low down. Turpentlne men
like 1arge-topped trees, as they give
more gum; but after the tapping is
over with the farmer wants his trees
to give long timber free from knots,
and such can only be had from trees
with long stems.
The trees in the sapling th1ckets
will never furnish any strong, lasting
lumber, being mainly sap-wood; but
the time is not far distant when con-
sumers will have to take what they
can get, and some process of making
such lumber more durable will be
invented to meet the necessity.
Meanwhile it will pay owners to en-
courage the growth of timber on
waste places by always leaving plenty
of grown trees for seeding, keeping
fires away from young timber, thin
it out and drain the water away from
the low grounds.

The Petunia.

We found an article about Petunias
in the last number of the California
Cu1tivator 1t is not as untimely as
it may seem, for the Petunia is a
perennial and almost hardy in this
state, being very seldom injured by
cold. Therefore it may still be plant
ed with the expectation that it will
bloom all winter The Cu1tivator says:
Petunia is a genus Of dwarf peren-
NAL plants found native in South
America. The present garden forms
are assumed to be hybrids from P.
nyctag aginahora, introduced into Euro
oean gardens in 1923, and P. violacea,
introduced in 1881. Originally, the
petunia produced single flowers only,
and it is due to the skill and care of
the hybridist that the present popular
double forms were evolved. The habit
of growth was also improved by care
ful crossing and selection and the
hybrid varieties were soon cultivated
to the exclusion Of the original spe~
cies, their flowers being more varied
in form and color, and of larger size
and greater Importance.
Some years back the petunia was
popular plant in Victorian gardens,
and very fine varieties were raised,
named and distributed by some of the
nurserymen of that time. Fine speci-
men plants grown in pots were often
seen at the horticultural shows, and
the plants we're largely used also for
bedding. Their popularity has de-
creased largely, but lately thev are
again coming into favor, the intro
duction of new, large, brightly-col
ored strains being mainly responsible.
The petunia is one of our best, hardi-
est and most easily grown border
plants The plants endure heat and
drought well and continue to produce
their attractive blossoms for long
period during the summer. The sim
gle-fowered varieties are most suit
able for border decoration, or for
massing in schemes of color. They
are not suitable for cultivating in
places specially liable to dust, or
where the atmosphere is heavily
CHARGED with CRIME or smoke, their
viscid leaves becoming coated with
such substances, which are difficult to
eradicate and which check the vigor
and bloom of the plants.

Grows Lettuce While You Wait

The following, which we have seen
in number of exchanges, is sample
of the stuff which city reporters get
off, when they undertake to write up
on any horticultural or agricultural
subject:
Eyes," said the florist, assording to
the Minneapolis Journal, ct can work
miracles in my business. For in
stance, I can grow you lettuce while
you wait-sweet crisp lettuce that you
may eat for your dinner with broiled
spring chicken.
81 do it in this way: I take hand
full of lettuce seeds that have been
soaked overnight in alcohol, and [
plant them in a box containing three
inches of loan and quicklime I wa
ter this soil and in ten minutes the
seeds burst.
"They burst, and in twenty minutes
two tiny leaves push through the
earth. The leaves grow and multiply
In an hour they are as big as half
dollars. Then you may pluck and eat
them. They are de1icious-a fairy
"Sometimes, when I give dinner
party, have one Of these little pre-
pared lettuce beds in the center of the
table The guests see the lettuce
grow and when the time comes for
the salad course, there is their salad
blooming before them, all ready for
them to pluck"

Beggar Weed.

Beggar weed.
More than twenty years ago, when
we were considering the idea of COM
ing to Florida, we were reading up
all that we could find about the state.
At that time we saw beggar weed
highly recommended as a good thing
to restore wasted fertility. Now,
twenty four years later, it is not men
toned any more frequently. 1t is a
|leguminous plant and yet has the ad-
vantage of not being a climbing. vine
which is liable to choke the trees in
a grove 1t is the only one recon-
mended for peach orchards, as the
others are apt to cause root knot.
The following account of beggar
weed is from the South Florida Senti-
mel:
This is a native forage plant. Once
the seed is in the ground, it will take
care of itself; it needs no cultivation
or fertilizer The leaves and tender
stalks are eaten greedily by all kinds
of stock. It's fattening properties are
wonderful Horses, mules, cattle,
hogs, chickens and geese are very.
fond of it. A mule will go through
Ia growing corn6eld without stopping
to nibble blade, to get into a patch
Of beggar weed on the back end of
the lot. Cut when about two feet in
height, it makes a nutritious hay and
will come on and make a second crop
the same season, ripening it's seeds
in the fall and resolving it's seeds, if
not again cut. 1t grows to a height
Of four to six feet and has a weedy
stem, which sustains a heavy foliage.
There is no better mulch to be had
than this plant affords, when cut and
spread upon the ground. After serv-
ing this purpose it speedily rots and
adds it's vegetable humus to the soil.
1t roots deeply and consequently
withstands drought without injury.
1t thrives splendidly in the wettest
part of the rainy season 1t is adapt
ed to all kinds Of Florida land, and
will improve any and all kinds if per-
mitted to grow and go back into the
soil. The seed can be purchased of
any seed and grain man; but once a
farmer gets it started in his land, he
should save the seed himself 1t is
somewhat difficult to separate the
seed from the hull, but if planted in
the hull in the fall it will come up
the following spring. Cleaned seed
will germinate in a few days, and
therefore should not be planted until
spring. This is just the crop to plant
late in the spring, on land that has
been used for trucking earlier If
turned under in the fall it will be
equal to heavy dressing Of fertilizer.

The Male of the Flock.

First, let me say something in re-
gard to the Importance of having a
good male bird to mead your flock
Most Of our coming seasons success
depends upon him. If you do not
possess good bird, don't think it is
too late to correct your error, but
send to some good, reliable breeder
for a 6rst-class bird, and one that is
fit to head any comparatively good
pen Of females.-Green's Fruit Gro

School Children in Panic.

Four hundred pupils, ranging in age
from to 20 years. were thrown into a
panic and loss Of life was narrowly avert.
ed in a $4,000 fire which broke out
Monday afternoon in the Jefferson high
school building and ragged for four hours
before being extinguished.
Nine-year- old Hilda Bauer, after es-
Gaping from the burning building, rushed
back to save cloak, and was only found
by the firemen after she had fallen un-
conscious from inhaling the dense smoke
in one of the cloak rooms.
With no fire drill to depend on, the
principal of the high school, F. r. Ham
ilton, and his four assistants and five
grade teachers distributed throughout
the building were practically powerless
to cope with the panic among the chill
dren.
The cry of sire" from passerby was
followed by mad scramble for the ex-
its. The big building, three stories and
attic high, was soon filled with dense
clouds of smoke. Like sheep without a
leader the children ran hither and
thither, those who found safety on the
outside added to the terror with their
cries. and the sight Of the firemen, who
we're badly handicapped by the failure
OF the waterworks system for several
minutes that seemed hours, added to the
terror and excitement.
When the fire was under control, a
second alarm was turned in for fire on
the other side OF the river and this added
to the excitement OF the moment. 1t
was found to be only small barn fire,
however.
The fire in the high school building
will cause temporary Inconvenience. The
grades are housed in the original "Jef-
ferson Liberal Institute" and the high
school in the addition built in 1895. This
part was only slightly damaged.
Insurance adjustors who made cur
sorry examination of the high school said
that the loss from Mondays fire would
amount to about $4,000, instead Of
$4,000 as was estimated at first They
attribute the fire to defective fue.

Not to Build Interurban.

The Southern Wisconsin Railway COM
pany has withdrawn It's application filed
with the state railroad commission for
certificate of public convenience and nee
essity to build an electric interurban
road from Madison to Stoughton. The
request was granted and the hearing
which was to have been held on the ap-
plication Tuesday has been can-
celled. Much opposition developed to
the application of the Madison company,
especially by residents of the city of
GAINESVILLE. who were afraid that the
granting Of the certificate to the Madi-
son company would prevent the extern
sion of an interurban line from James
vile to Madison.
SIN view of the fact" says the letter
ct withdrawal, that much opposition
has arisen from unexpected quarters to
the building of an lnterurban road by
the Southern Wisconsin Railway COM
pany from Madison to StoughtoD, and
in view of the fact that it would be iro-
practicable to undertake the enterprise
without the cooperation of the public,
we hereby withdraw our application for
certificate of publia convenience and
necessity. 1t seems to be the wish of
those opposing the application made by
this company that railroad should be
at once constructed from Madison to
GAINESVILLE or Chicago Any company
constructing such line will meet with
no opposition from this company. but on
the contrary with its hearty co.opera-

Died in California.

Uncle Rufus Bingham, one of the
earliest pioneers in this section of the
state, died near Los Angeles, CAL, Sun
day morning as result Of stroke of
apoplexy. About month ago he and
his daughter Evaline left here to reside
permanently on the coast and had just
got settled in new home when he was
taken i'll. Mr.. Bingham came to Wis
consin from Pennsylvania in 1889, settl-
ing at the head Of Lake Koshkonong
where for half Il century the family
maintained a most delightful country
home. He was 81 years of age. The re-
mains are expected to arrive here on
Thursday and it is expected that the
funeral services will take place from the
Congregational church at p. N. Friday.
The interment will be- made in the fam
lily lot in Fassett cemetery.

will move in about Nov. 1st.
The Rufus Bingham farm on Lake
Koshkonong was sold by Mark Ainsley
Tuesday to Otto Olson. The farm con-

ham about year ago to his nephew for
S23, 296. Mr.. Ainsley now transfers it to
Olson at an advance of nearly $1,000, in
Guiding the stock, machinery and crops.
AT nigh noon on Thursday, Sept 26,
Rev. F. G. Richardson united in mar
riage Henry G. Stricken and Miss Jo-
sephine Grace Merrill of this city. The
ceremony took place at the home of Mrs.
Grace Dawson in GAINESVILLE, special
permit having been secured for the cere-
mony to occur on the date Of the issu-
ance of the license. The parents of the
bride and few near friends only were
present. Both the young people are we'll
known in this community, the bride
having held the position of soloist in the
choir of the NJ. E. church for some time
past. They will reside at Amos where
the groom conducts the general store at
that place.

Bad Weather Coming, Says Hicks.

Irl r. Hicks, the weather prophet,
makes a forecast Of rather unpleasant
conditions during the month of October.
What he calls the combined force of
earth and Venus" will continue until the
middle of the month, and storm condi-
tions will prevail from the I'd to the 4th,
with higher temperature and autumnal
rains. The new moon falling on the ce-
lestial equator on the 7th, equinoctial
phenomena may be expected about this
period, with general storms of thunder,
wind and rain in the West, and from the
9TH to the 10th these storms are likely to
sweep eastward. People on the Pacific
coast are warned that equinoctial storms
may be expected at this time.
Dangerous gales are also predicted
over the lake region, followed by change
to colder. The forecsster thinks frost
will be felt from the 9th to the 18th in
"much of the country, central and north
ward" From the 18th to the 18th very
cool days and frosty nights may be ex
pected. From the latter date until the
22d, according to Mr., Hicks, storms will
prevail il the central parts of the coun
Try, followed by change to frost IN the
North and West, the frost area reaching
we'll to the southwark.
A period of 'mistiness and thick, pro-
longed cloudiness" is predicted from the
25th to the 9th, with lowering weather,
often resulting IN sleet and heavy frost.
The sixth storm period of the month be-
gins on the Goth, and, according to Mr..
Hicks, will extend to Nov 3.
Cold, westerly Winds early snow and
sIeet over large areas to the northward
may be expected about this time, he
says, and he closes his forecast for Octo
Der by asserting that much inconven
fence and loss may be sverted, especially
to agriculturists and dealers in perish
able goods, by prompt and vigilant
roundup Of the autumns work.
It is further stated that "shippers and
navigtors who disregard storm indica
tons and warnings about this time will
risk paying penalties in human lives and
wrecked shipping"
