HEW TO THE LINE.
Oklahoma Won't Be Excused From
. Fence Order.

Washington, March 3O.-Secretary
Garfield has found it necessary to in
form Governor Frantz of Oklahoma,
as he did Governor Brooks of Wyo-
ming on Thursday last that he can
make no exception in favor of Okla
homa in respect to the order for the
removal of fences on the public lands
on April 1, and he so notified the gov
ernor today.
In his appeal for delay Governor
Frantz said that practically all of the
public domain in that territory had
been absorbed by the land grants to
the prospective state and he urged that
the lands could be rented to better adj
vantage if the fence order was not
enforced. He added that "cattlemen
using these lands are ready to pay
rental to the state at once if the order
be held not to apply to Oklahoma, but
wants to know Immediately if the or
der is to apply so as to remove fences
and herds and abandon pastures. Such
abandonment would cause large loss
to the educational funds of the terri
tory and state
In his reply Mr.. Garfield said: 'tI
can not exercise any discretion as to
the enforcement of the fencing law.

be treated exactly the same as else

Gated below the Santa Fe shops and in
Oakland and Mr.. Dawson, in speak
ing of the advance of real estate in
this locality, said: Property in and
around Oakland is fast advancing. This
is partly due to the enlargement of the
shops, and also on account of the ad-
vance of property in other parts of
Topeka. People are coming to this
locality, not as an investment but to
make permanent homes, as they are
offered many advantages such as gar
dening, chicken ranches, etc. I be-
lieve property in this locality will
double in five years.

Transplantinp Fruit Trees,

Of the fruit trees, the apple, pear,
European and native plum and cherry
are successfully planted in the fall,
but the japanese plum and peach are
better planted in the spring. Young,
vigorous, two-year-old trees are better
for general planting than those older
or younger, even though they are of
a rather small size. A first-class two
year-old tree, however, should be from
five to six feet high, from three-Quar-
ters Of an inch to an inch in dame
ter measured six inches from the
ground, with good number Of roots
and with sufficient branches to form
a good head. The shorter the distance
from the nursery to the place of plant
ing, the better, for in transplanting
from a distant nursery trees are often
seriously injured by delays beyond the
control of the shipper or purchaser. If
possible, one should see the trees In
the nursery before they are dug,
All injured roots should be cut
smooth at the ends, and any very long
ones-that Is more than one foot long
be cut back to that length. All sur
plus shoots should be cut off, and the
three or four that are left to form the
main branches of the head should be
headed back in proportion to the in
jury to the roots. The roots should be
kept covered and moist from the time
of digging to planting; to accomplish
this dip them in a puddle" made by
stirring clay soil into water until 1t is
the consistency of thick cream. This
forms coating for the roots and
keeps them moist for a long time
even through the long exposure Of
planting.

The Poor Old Horse.

We have a friend in Irvington, who
recently gave away an old horse to a
farmer, who he had reason to think
would take good care of the animal,
rather than accept s25 offered for it by
a city express man who he thought
would abuse and half starve it. The
horse is strong and good for several
years service if properly treated, but
could not endure cruelty. This is an
example worthy of imitation by many
who have such animals. 1t is pity
to see an old horse or one having
some blemish that renders him unsal-
able, put into the hands Of some ire
sponsible, cruel, ignorant or stingy
driver, to be overworked, unsheltered,
beaten and starved till death comes to
his release. Farmers having such ami
mails to dispose of would better shoot
them than send them to the city. The
few dollars they will bring will net
compensate for the stir8s the deed
will inflict upon their conscience, il
they have any.-IIdiana Farmer.

She sat in the cool library with a
closed volume in her lap. Sweet
flowers in tall vases nodded at her as
the gentle breezes played around them
and a yellow bumblebee purred
drowsily through the air.
But the atmosphere of peace did
not extend into her soul. There a
tempest was raging; the foundations
of things mental were shaken, the
veil of her inner sanctuary was rent
in twain. Was this all it amounted

at her husband out in the garden.
Would he understand if she spoke?
But the futility Of speech came over
her. How could man understand

After all, he was her husband; per-

do with making him such. She re-
membered in a vague, dazed way

asked her about it. Now he was

brown earth. She had always been
fond of radishes and he knew It, A
thought flashed through her mind.

Fancy Blouse Waist.

Every variation of the chemisette
effect Is In vogue and very many are
the attractive waists and gowns that
result from the fact. illustrated Is
one of the prettiest of the new
blouses that shows a chemisette of
novel shape and that has the very
great merit of closing at the front.
In the illustration 1t is made Of chif-
fon faille in the lovely shade of red
known as crushed raspberry and Is
trimmed with velvet of the same
shade and with velvet buttons while
the chemisette is of cream lace over
chiffon. The material is one Of the
prettiest of the new silks and Is well
liked both for separate waists and
for gowns, but there are also great
many other silk materials that are
appropriate and also long list of
veilings and the like. In fact, the
blouse is adapted to any seasonable
material that Is available for indoor
wear.
There is a fitted lining that Is
closed at the centre front and on this
are arranged the chemisette and the
various portions of the waist. The
back of the waist is laid in tucks
that are stitched fiat and which give
becoming lines to the figure, while
there are pleated portions In the
front that are distinctly novel and
provide becoming fulness. The clos

inserted muslin in lingerie style, but
both trimming and chemisette can
be varied again and again. Any fas-
hionable banding can be utilized for
the former while for the latter all
over lace or almost any contrasting
material is appropriate. If a very
plain, serviceable waist is desired
the chemisette could be made of taf-
feta, while the waist itself Is of CASH
mere or yelling and the long cuffs
utilized with cuffs of silk to match
the chemisette, whereas made as IL
lustrated there is more dressy ef-
feet obtained, so that the model pro-
vides for a great many occasions.
The waist is made over fitted lin
ing that is closed at the centre front
and itself consists of fronts and back.
These last are tucked to yoke depth
and arranged in gathers az the waist
line, the closing being made invisibly.
The sleeves are moderately full puffs
that are finished at their lower edges
with flare cuffs, whether the shorter
or longer length is used. The bands
of tucking and lace illustrated COM
bine with the chemisette to give a
guimpe effect but are entirely option
al.
The quantity of material required
for the medium size is four yards

twenty-seven or two yards forty-four
inches wide with five-eighth yard Of
