SHALL WE iRRIoATE oRHARDs
LATE IN THE FALL?

In former article in News Notes
published by the Colorado Agricuitur-
al College, the question of late fall
or early winter irrigation or orchards
was discussed, and the practice was
advocated in a general way. The ar
ticle provoked considerable discussio.
in some localities. Some growers ha
irrigated at this time and lost their
fruit the following season; others ha
lost some trees, and the natural infer
ence was that the lace watering was
responsible.
Possibly short study Of the phil
osophy of late watering will throw
some light upon the subject.
Trees transpire water in the winte
the same as they do in summer, but
not to so great an extent, OF course,
as when the trees are in full leaf an
in an active state ofgrowth. The
gist of the whole matter is simply
this: If the ground becomes dry dur
ing the winter, the trees will be very
apt to be injured by the tops becom-
ing dried out. This is one OF the
principal causes of the so-caHed
freezing dry, common occurance IL
the northern part of the state.
As a general thing it may be SAID
that late watering is advisable, be-
cause the rule will apply in the mai
ority of cases. But it is with 1rriga-
ton as with most other orchard oper
tions-no set rules can be given; the
orchardist must determine these pol
for himself. If the orchard SOIL Is
inclined to hold water, obviously NOR
water will be detriment. In some
cases that we have seen, drainage
would be better practice. In othei
orchards the ground will become ver.
dry. all of which the grower can cas-
iIy determine, and then he should re-
gulate his practice accordingly

TAFT SOUNDS KEYNOTE.
Administration Not to War on Les-
innate Enterprises, but Law
viii Hit Offenders.

Cincinnati, Nov. 5.-Speaking to
/: the Cincinnati Commercial Club, OF
which he has been a member for
fifteen years, William Howard Taft
tonight brought every member of the
club to his feet in his address, sound
ing the keynote of prosperity for the
| country for the next four years.
Every business man who is obey
ing the law may go ahead with all
,, the energy in his possession, every
enterprise which is within the statute
may proceed without fear of inter
ference from the administration,
when acting legally, but all interests
within the Jurisdiction of the federal
government may expect a rigid en-
forcement of the laws against dis
honest methods was the keynote OF
what Mr.. Taft said.
A message of congralation from
the defeated candidate for President
at Lincoln, Neb., and a response
from the President-elect in this city
were exchanged today. The messages
are as follows:
please accept congratulations and
best wishes for the success of youi
administration. w. j. Bryan.
81 thank you sincerely for your
cordial and courteous telegram oil
congratulation and good wishes.
William II. Taft.
The message from Mr.. Bryan came
while Judge Taft was addressing the
general conference of the Women S
Foreign Missionary Society of the
Methodist Episcopal Church. He re-
ceived the message on his return
to his residence and answered 1t
at once.

New York, Nov. THE Worlt
tomorrow will say:
"One million men are marching

From evever section of the Uni
ted States the whistles of the shops
and factories are shrieking rousine

to the call for more help to man the
plants which have been entirely clos

establishments which have been work
ing reduced forces of men at haif

auipment have poured into the Of
fices of machinery builders in volume
sufficient to swamp them and Great

"Au along the line the word has
been passed that prosperity has ar
rived simultaneously with the cleo
tion of William II. Taft and like
giant the business and nianufactur-
ing interests have reused from pre-
election lethargy and shaking off the
shackles of uncertainty and distrust
of radical changes in economic con
ditions. ordered the fires rekindled
and the forces doubled.
Every barometer of trade has ut
terly changed within the week. The
first news from the polls sent the
glass to the fair weather mark and
within a week business conditions
from coast to coast have become won
derfully settled.
Contracts involving the expendi'
ture of huge sums for equipment ana
labor, and which contained clauses
conditioned upon the election result
have been put into effect by tele-
gram. In the manufacturing centers
of the east and west, the north ana
the south. the full strength OF the
labor army is practically called into
action. Not an industrial capital
but which has signalled the magic
slogan, get busy
Does even the most enthusiastic
of the Bryan supporters believe that
his election would have been follow
ed by any such cheering news to the
country at large. We don't believe
that any of them expected it. but
the habit of following the boy ora
tor has become so fixed with them
that they will continue it for years
to come.

serve the shape of her pedal extremi-

more attention upon them than she is
credited with doing says the Chicago
Tribune. To keep them trim and
shapely hot baths should be resorted
TO. A frequent change of ~hoes is adj
visable. as it rests the feet and helps
TO Keep them in good condition. After a
long tramp battle them in warm water
afterward rubbing with bay rum or CO.
logne. But. after all. the weekly pedi
curing should not be forgotten. 1t Is
just as important as manicuring Aft

ply plaster OF channels skin with a
hole in the center. This will not only
relieve. but cure. Toe nails do not need
trimming as often as finger nails. They
should be trimmed squire across. kept
at a moderate length and otherwise
treated as those of the fingers.
The feet should be washed every
morning If 1t were made daily Gus
tom the beauty OF the feet would be
better preserved. and there would be
fewer corns, blisters and bunlons.
Should the feet be prone TO dampness
the stockings should be changed every
day. and the soles of the clean stock

good toilet powder.

tender feet should avoid It, Slippers
