Another letter from W. G. NJ, OF
Mabton, made inquiry concerning the
culture OF English walnuts in that
region. Professor Thornber's reply
follows:
"The selection OF proper varieties
is very important, and up to the pres
ent time l have found only two va
rieties that are hardy enough to
thrive well under the conditions Of
your locality. These two are the
Fayette and the Mayette. They are
not English walnuts, strictly speak
ing, but are the same species, and
are commonly spoken of as Per
sian, or English walnuts. 1t will
be impossible for you to grow In
commercial way grated trees Of
these varieties, simply because the
operation of grating is so difficult
that only a few are secured, and the
price OF grating stock is very high.
A better way is to secure good first
or second generation trees from re-
liable nurserymen. Theses second
generation trees are grown from
nuts of first generation trees, usually
In Oregon and California. From my
personal experience, / should judge
that you will succeed remarkably
well If you secure good varieties.
Almost any of our soils, IL the sea-
sons are not too severe, will grow
English walnuts, providing there is
not shale, or hardpan, nearer than
three or four feet to the surface of
the ground | understand that we
are obliged to watch these conditi
very closely in this section. do
recommend that English walnuts
sown in your region, yet | believe
careful selection of varieties and
the orchard grounds that they
succeed in many places"

Washington Farmers Ask information

From the Washington State College, Pullman.
The experiment station has received
letter from J. A. g., of Everett, ask
ing how to exterminate the Canadian
thistle. Professor W. S. Thornber,
horticulturist, replied as follows:
The Canadian thistle is hard
plant TO fight, but by Judicious cut
ting and cultivation you can eradi-
cate it. The plant must be kept from
forming a growth above the surface
of the ground for at least one year
in order that your efforts for its ex-
termination may be successful. The
plant spreads by underground stems.
or roots, which are thrown up at dis
tances of from three to six feet from
the parent plant so merely destroy
Ing the mother plant viii not kill
the weed. A good cutting during
the month of June, followed by other
cuttings I'm the latter part of July
and on through August will check
the thistle materially, and may de-
stroy 1t entirely. 1t Is generally
quite difficult to eradicate the plant
in pastures and fence corners, since
a small residue viii be left unde-
stroyed, which will grow during the
following year. There Is no spray
that will kill IL. Sometimes 1t is
helpful to cut the thistle off about
three inches below the surface OF
the ground, which causes the root
to rot by drying out. In cultivated
fields it is advisable to rake out the
stems, and allow them
to dry thoroughly before blowing
again.

BLUFF SPRINGS
HIGH SCHOOL
Closes a Most Successful
Term With a Fine En-
tertainnent.
Special TO The journal.

Bluff Springs, Fla, Jupe S.-The
f9O1-OS term OF the Bluff Springs
High School was finished with a
very interesting and entertaining pro-
gram.
The opening address by Mr.. !. w.
Crazy, the supervisor. was very in
teresting and encouraging to all in
tereSted In the school work, both
teachers and parents. He is one of
those men who not only believe in
the education of the youth, but mis-
work demonstrates that fact.
Miss Ava Mcneil, salutatorian for
the class of 1908, rendered an excel
lent essay on The Cause of Finan-
cial Panics," showing the result of
her application.
The validictory by Miss Marie
Crary was a plea Cor the preserva-
ton of the forests, and showed the
necessity of making a general move
in the direction of replanting our de-
minded lands.
Mr.. Crazy then presented the
diplomas with fitting remarks, which
closed the graduating exercises, after
which an entertaining program was
carried out. which was appreciated
by the audience. There were be-
tween 500 and 700 people from differ
ent points in this part of the country
present.
These exercises close one of the
successful terms OF public school No.
9. This school is steadily improving,
and has nailed to ner masthead ex-
celsiOr, and under sucn a corps of
teachers as it had last term, is des-
tined to advance.
Miss Nora Weakly. the principal,
shows in herself all that could be
wished as an educator. Miss Essie
Godfrey. the first assistant, has nat
ural ability to disseminate knowledge
and as a teacher acts the golden rule
with her pupils. SO that a child feels
it his or her duty to acquire knowl-
edge under her care. Miss 1uly Fair

been offered. The evidence that the
hotel books had been dOctored, had
been convincing testimony; he had
taken into consideration the time and
distance to the bridge, and had recon
ciled these to the best of his ability.
In view of the testimony offered. in
fact, he could see no other way than
to believe in the guilt of the parties.
Upon being given a chance to say
a word for themselves, Messrs. Fill
lingim, Maloney and Mccain stood
before the Judge, and declared their
innocence.
Judge Sheppard then resumed. He
said that he appreciated the cause of
labor, having been a laboring man
until ne was twenty-eight years of
age. He said that there was no
prejudice in the matter, and that he
had known none of the men convicted
before they had appeared before him
in the court room.
He was called upon, however, in
his official position, to vindicate the
authority of the court and the pUn-
isnment imposed was in the nature
of an example to others. He conclud-
ed by sentencing each of the three
men to sixty days in the county Jail.
