When English Lord Hears of Ac- ton by Federal Supreme Court
 He Says "It's Death on Tccllnicality.'

St. Louis, April 22.-Wben the Information containing the United States supreme courts decision sustaining the verdict of guilty of the murder of James P. McCann rendered Gy the trial court was con- veyed today to Lord Frederick Seymour Burlington, who is con- fined in the county jail, Harrington was apparently greatly depressed, but endeavored to conceal his feel inss.
 T suppose this is the last resort,' he said. As l see it, there is nothing left but the fixing of the date of execution by the Mis- souri supreme court. The United States supreme court passed only on question of jurisdiction. It seems hard that mans life should be taken on mere technlcalltY like that

CARLOAD OF
 ALLEGATIONS
Among the Number Captured Are Four MonsterS-Re Will Open
 a Farm in St. Louis.

H. l. Campbell, owner of the Ar kansas alligator farm, returned last night from the sWamps of Florida and Louisiana, wherd he enjoyed the most successful nunt of his long career. He brought back carload of the reptiles, which will bs placed upon exhibition at the farm. Among the large number caught durng the hunt are four larger than Big Joe,' who has reigned for three years as monarch of the farm. A lively time is expected when Big Joe" meets the strans- CTS, for he demonstrated the fact that he would not abdicate his throne without a fight when he killed fellow reptile much larger than himself about year ago.
 MT. Campbell is making prepara- tions to open a large farm in St. Louis and intends to return to the swamps for another hunt before he is satisfied with the stock he now has on hand, for all alligators cap tured during the past week will be kept here. With the addition of the carload he will have on hand here nearly 1000 specimens, rang ing size from six inches to sixteen feet.-Hot Springs Sentinel.

Seed Potatoes.

In the cutting of seed potatoes it has been found advisable not to leave too many eyes to each piece. Too many stalks means light stalks, which can be blown down more easily than large stalks. Probably too many stalks mean too many roots and the formation of too many tubers for many of them to be of good size. Little potatoes are not marketable, no matter how good the variety may be. For some years there was quite furOre for the growing of potatoes from whole potatoes as seed, but there is probably nothing gained by this practice, and there is g. considerable loss of seed material Probably the very old practice of cutting to two eyes is as good as any.

There are but few editors in the territory who have not made vigorous and continuous fight against the city mail order house. This has been done in the inter est of the home merchant, and without money and without price. If the editors of the land had received regular advertising rates for all they have said against these enemies of the country merchant they could now be wearing diamonds. The mail order house appreciates ad vertising space and is willing to take all the country editor has for sale at a good price. What other class of business or pro- fessiOnai men would refuse busi- ness to help their friends, espe- cially as many of said friends never seem in the least disposed to return the compliment or even it.

Alfalfa; l. 70 acres: This was SOwn May IS; 1905, yielding three cuttings of about five tons of clean hay the first season. During the sec Ond season, covered by this Timely Hint, there were seven cuttings with total of about 20 tons of hay. The only cash outlay was S22.4l for irrigating water. The labor re- quired was, mans time, IA days and team ninn days, which is rather high labor require ment for this alfalfa on account of the small size of the field under consideration, and linn ited use of machinery. This crop at g GO 70 Sl000 a ton, loose, which has been the price this season. represents a cash return of not less thar SI2OOO for the crop; but this hay was used to feed the team employed on the place. proving to be more than sufficient for that purpose, since stack of about three tons re- mains at the end of the season.
