MISSISSIPPI LEGISLATES.

jackson, Miss. jan, What
promises to be one of its most i'm
portant sessions in years was formal
ly opened tosey by the Mississippi
Legislature. An attempt will un-
doubtedly be made by the temperance
element in the state to secure the
passage of stringent prohibition
law. A large portion of the state is
already dry and as there are no
large centers of population in the
state. It Is unlikely that much oppo-
sition win deevlop If such a measure
is introduced. Governor Vaniaman
and the old state officials will hold
office until January 81, when Gov
ernor-elect Noel will take the oath
as chief executive of the state, and
Lieutenant Governor-elect NanshiI
will then become presiding officer OF
the senate. The inaugural ceremon-
les Will be marked by an enthusiastic
celebration, in which the people Of
Mississippi will pay tribute to Gov
ernor vardaman as well as to the In
coming state executive.

SENATORSHIP
Today the Blue Grass Legislature Convened Governor
Beckham Triumph Over His Enemies and Succeed
James B. McCreay in the United States Senate?

will be brought forward, among those
mentioned being Colonel Harry Wies-
senger of Louisville, former Senator
William Lindsay of Frankfort, James
b. McCreary, the present senior sem
ator. and Representative Ollie James.
Former Governor w. o. Bradley is
the nominee of the Republican eau
Gus for the senatorship, but there is
admittedly little possibility of his
election. 1t is alleged that Mr.. Brad
ley is unpopular among some of the
members of his party. and that IL he
should add enough votes from the
Democratic column to insure his cleo
ton, he would be deserted by several
Republican legislators, who would
not vote for him If he had any real
chance of winning.
Another matter before the ligisla-
ture is that of the selection of site
for the statute of the late Governor
William Goebel, for which the legis-
lature appropriated $4,000. As the
result of the recent Republican vic
tory. the personnel of the state COM
mission changed today, and is now
composed of Governor Wilson, Lieu
tenant Governor Cox, Auditor James.
Treasurer Farley and Attorney Gen
eral Breathltt. 1t was the purpose
of the legislature to have the Goebel
statute erected in the rotunda of the
Capitol, as a constant reminder of the
manner of Goebels tragic death and
of the fact that he was the victim of
an alleged political conspiracy.
While the Democrats provided for
the statute, the Republican state Of
ficials will have the power to desig-
nate the place where it shall be erect
ed. unless the legislature passes a
special act. 1t is certain that the Re-
publican officials will not place the
Goebel statute in the state Capitol
unless forced to do SO by the state
! Legislature.

ADVICE
TO THE GROWERS

long rows In newly plowed land. This
is also a suggestion to those who have
n crop to plow under in the old
orchard or land to prepare for the
young orchard. The earlier this crop
can be turned under the better. The
young orchard on late plowed alfalfa
land often makes a poor start on ac-
count of the excessive amount of wa
ter taken by these loose soils.
In the practice OF irrigation many
growers fail to take into considera-
tion the condition of the subsoil.
Only irrigators of long experience
with the particular piece of land can
properly water 1t by examination of
the surface soil alone. The careful
irrigator relies upon frequent exam
inatiou of the subsoil to guide him
in the application of water. With
the possible exception of very sandy
soils, the matter of proper cultiva-
tton is greatly simplified by water
ing in deep bitches. The surface soil
is saved from a thorough wettlng
and the bitches may be floated full
within twenty-four or forty-eight
hours after turning off the water
Too often watering in shallow bitches
makes 1t impossible to get a team
upon the ground before the bottom
of the bitches is baked like brick.
The bitches should always be filled
before the surface begins to crust.
Not a word can be said in defense of
the too common practice of leaving
the bitches open during the entii Z
season The distance or length of
rows through which water can be
successfully run will depend much on
the character of the soil and the
grade. 1t is safe to say, however, the
shorter the run the better. Though
1t necessitates additional head ditch
es, better results will come from
breaking the long rows up into short
er runs. Where long runs cannot be
avoided. ii is always best 10 start the
burrows with large head of water.
By rushing the water through the
rows and then shutting it down to
just enough to carry through, 1t is
The daily sentinel., 1908-01-07

With the great variation in types
of soil found In our ruit-growing sec
tions 1t is impossible to lay down any
definite rules for the application of
water or cultivation of the orchard.
Each growers has problem of his
own and he alone can best solve it.
However. few important principles
may be suggested which will aid the
observing orchardist In the proper
handling of his particular soil. Care
full observation and common sense
will do much to overcome difficult
ties now commonly experienced in
irrigation fruit growing.
Many of our soils are too heavy to
be easily handled under irrigation as
commonly practiced. With frequent
irrigations and meager cultivation
they become hard and refuse to take
water properly. Careful irrigation
and more rigorous cultivation will do
much to overcome this difficulty.
Heavy soils should be plowed from
six to eight inches deep at least once
each year. The destruction of small
roots by the plow will do no damage,
while the breaking of larger roots
may be avoided by shallow plowing
near the tree. The plowing should
be done preferably in fall or early
winter. This gives an opportunity to
settle the soil by winter and early
spring civilizations. The rain and
snowfall of winter also do much to
settle the plowed land. Orchards
plowed late in winter or spring are
generally watered with difficulty.
The loose condition of the soil allows
the water to escape freely from the
ditch. When once outside the, con-
fines of the ditch, the lateral move
ments of the water are much more
rapid than the downward, and as a
result, the surface soil is saturated to
the extent that the benefits generally
derived from plowing are lost. The
soil is run together, and before 1t is
In shape to cultivate. 1t is hard and
baked. This is especially true OF the
soil at the upper end of the orchard,

possible 10 do more uniform water
ing. Heavy watering at greater in
lervals is always preferable To light
and frequent waterings. Heavy wat
erings, however, should be followed
by prompt and frequent CIVILIZATIONS.
frequent waterings are detrimental
10 proper soil aeration, and without
air, roots cannot grow. This explains
why overwatering is especially detri-
mental to young trees. The young
orchard which receives a thorough
watering once month, supplemented
py careful cultivation, makes "a bet
Ter growth than one cultivation.
Some growers are beginning to-
realize that the old orchard nee Is
come form OF fertilizer, and from
previous experience in eastern states.
al once think oil commercial fertiliz-
ers. however. the use OF commercial
fertilizers would probably prove dis
couraging under Colorado soil condi-
tons Many fail TO realize that com
laratively few commercial fertilizers
are soluble in water. They must be
decomposed by other elements in the
soil. To facilitate this decomposition
the soil should be abundantly sup
l,Ied with decaying organic matter.
soils ol the arid regions are very
deficient in vegetable matter, ano
until ii is supplied applications of
commercial fertilizers cannot be eA-
peeted to give satisfactory or profit
able returns. Not only this, but our
Colorado soils contain an abundance
of mineral matter, and if supplied
with organic matter to aid In dissolv-
ing the minerals, become abundantly
fertile. Growers will soon come to
the plan of sowing crops in the or
chard in late summer to be turned
under the following winter. This in
corporation of organic matter will
not only enhance the fertility of the
soil, but render the heavy soils more
friable and increase the water-hola-
ing capacity of our sandy mesa land.

Frankfort, KY, Jan. THE cleo
tion of United States Senator to
succeed James B. McCreary. whose
term of service as representative of
the Blue Grass state In the upper
house of the national legislature will
expire on March 4. 1909, is the most
important matter before the Ken
lucky assembly, which convened to-
day. While the first ballot for sena-
tor will not be taken for two weeks.
the candidates and the hopeful dark
horses" are busily engaged in pull
ing wires and sounding the senti-
ments OF the legislators. Former
Governor ]. C. Beckham is the reg
ular nominee of the Democratic party
and while this fact would ordinarily
assure his selection without strug-
gle, his supporters apparently have
many obstacles to overcome before
realizing the ambition OF their chief
tain.
1t is realized by the Beckham ad-
herents that the first ballot will be
the supreme test of the strength of
the ex-governor and they are strain
ing every nerve to assure a victory on
the first poll of votes. II he fails of
success then. 1t is generally believed
that his star will wane and that other
aspirants will forge to the front. The
failure of any four Democratic mem
bers of the legislature out of the total
of 73 to vote for Ex-Governor Beck
ham will prevent his election. While
he occupies commanding position as
the senatorial choice of the Demo-
cratic voters of the state. his cleo
tion is not yet assured and he may
yet be defeated by narrow margin.
Beckham's managers have adopted
the slogan, "Beckham or nobody"
and this may result in bringing about
n deadlock which will prevent the
election of senator at this session.
In such an event. many dark horses
