and cultivation improve tie early
growth of the trees. but add to the in
ltial cost Of the plantation.
Trees should be planted with the
least possible exposure of the roots.
The rootlets of the plant will dry out
IL exposed to the air for even a short
time. This is especially true of conf
ers. Some of the broadleaf species
may. with proper attention, live even
after the roots have dried out, but
conifers are far less likely to survive.
When the seedlings are received,
they should be unpacked at nee and
their roots dipped into a pail contain
Ing thin mud. Until time for planting
In the field the trees should be, 'heeled-
in" according to the following method:
Dig a trench deep enough to bury the
roots and part of the stems. The
trench should run east and west, with
its south bank at a slope Of about 80
degrees to. the surface of the ground.
A layer Of trees should be placed In
the trench on its sloping side, the top
toward the south. The roots and
stems should be covered with fresh
earth dug from the second trench, in
which second layer of trees is put
and covered in the same way. The
digging Of the parallel trenches is re-
lpeated and layers of trees are put in
until all have been heeled-in as shown
In the accompanying Illustration.
In the case OF conifers care should
be taken not to bury the foliage, and
either to choose alshady place for the
young trees or to construct q shade
over them with brush or laths.
The best. time to- plant trees is in
the early spring. before the growth be-
gins. In general, planting should be
done as o as possible after the
frost is out of4the ground. The tr, IS
should be carried to the planting sites
roots downward In a pail containing
several inches of water. They should
be set in holes dug with a mattock.
The width and depth of the holes will
depend on the character and size of
the plants root system. In all tree
planting it is Of the greatest impor-
lance to press the earth firmly about
the roots SO that all air spaces are
filled. The SOIL should not, however,
be packed so-hard as'to be impervious
to water, nor should the earth be
raised in a mound about the stem.
III Information regarding general nur-
sery practice; and planting may be OBJ
tanned from publications Of the forest
service. whichnwih be forwarded upon
request addressed to the forester.

THE LANDER SCHOOLS
SOMEWHAT CROWDED.

The Lander school Is very much
crowded and the board has ordered the
stone part Of the building repaired and
fitted with seats, etc., to be utilized for
the present as n school room, says the
Lander Republican. This stone part
is what was formerly the only school
house that Lander boasted and some
twenty years ago was a fne school
building considering the needs of the
town. However, we find that now the
ten-room brick building is not nearly
adequate to the demands and that In

They Can't Find a witness


About a year ago Judge Charles E.
Carpenter of the Second judicial dis
trict ordered the prosecuting attorney
and the sheriff of Natrona county 10
arrest any one in Natrona county wnom
they found violating the anti-gamDling
law, and on account of this order Alex
7. Butler, then prosecuting attorney,
resigned, claiming that he was not
elected to serve as a detective. Every
thing seemed to be running atong
smoothly after this until this week.
Some people claimed that the anti
gambling law was being violated in
Casper, but those who had been en-
gagged in the business declared tina:
they would quit just as soon Is pubic
sentiment favored it, but that senti.
ment never manifested itself in IA very
strong form. The authorities claim
that no one could be found who would
act as prosecuting witness, and untn
such a person could be found it was
useless 10 file an information against
any one who was supposed to be vic.
lating the law. But now comes in
structions from the attorney general,
to both the prosecuting attorney and
the board of county commissioners.
which is said to be supported by tho
desires OF the governor of the state, in.
sisting that the anti-gambling laws of
the state be enforced to the letter. 1t
is said hat this law is not being vio-
lated in any Of the counties of the state
except in Natrona, Fremont and Bis
Horn, and the officers of these three
counties have received instructions to
see that the law Is enforced. But the
authorities are in the same position
now that they were when Judge Car.
penter issued his order, and 1t is very
evident that no prosecutions will re.
suit until a witness can be found who
will testify that the anti-gambling law
is being violated in this county.-Na-

many shadows that fall athwart the

these is poor pay, and the other is the
