.sWood is constantly prey to in
sects," said an employee in the office
of wood preservation, snbdepartment
of the forestry department "The gen
eral public is familiar with the devas-
tation caused by the marine borer,
which destroys piiing and other wood
which it reaches. Since taking up the
work of protecting plies from this in
sect the government has hranched out
into the study of wood preservation
generally.
''In my special department we are
experimenting on the cheapest and
best methods Of preserving fenceposts
and similar timbers used by farmers.
By an inexpensive process fenceposts,
which formerly lasted, say five years,
now may be made to last twenty, and
the same sort of saving win be made
possible by these experiments in other
directions" CARL SCHOFIELD.

THE FARMERS, RIGHT TO COM.
BINE.

In these days of combinations and
control of prices on nearly all manu-
featured products, the manufacturers,
when they find that by over-produc-
ton and competition they are forcing
prices down below the point upon
which they can make profit, get to-
gether and agree to curtail the out
put. and hold what they produce until
those who need it and must have it
are willing to take it at a price fixed
by them, says Farm and Ranch.
Should any one or more manufac-
turers, making similar articles, sell
them at a price lower than that fixed,
they are soon put out of business
by methods familiar to all. Farm and
Ranch does not commend to anyone
the oppressive methods of the trusts,
but the producers and those engaged
in other lines that depend upon the
patronage of the farmers, should, and
would be justifiable in combining in
an effort to fairly secure what Is
Justly coming to them. If the pro-
ducers of this country would almost
as a unit say-and say it hard
enough to believe it themselves and
stick to tive will not sell anything
for sixty days, except at fair price,
and no more than the market will
take at that price," they would soon
be in control of the situation. The
producer owns, or at least should own,
that which he produces, and SO long
as he is not slave to the lender" is
not morally or otherwise wrong in
fixing fair price upon that which be-
longs to him. That the farmers will,
as a unit, come to such an under
standing is neither to be expected or
hoped for; yet it has been conclusive
ly proved that by organization they
are being educated up to a degree
that will soon make it possible for
enough of them to come to mutual
understanding that will enable them
to at least prevent the Spectator and
gambler from forcing prices down so
low as to actually cause them loss, as
is now being done. Once from under
the yoke of debt, with the power to
produce everything absolutely neces-
sary for consumption, the farmer can,
if he will, control the markets of the
world, and subdue without bloodshed
all it's armies and navies.

There are great possibilities around
Palestine for artistic taste to have
full sway in taking care of the yards
and little park places here and there.
1t is astonishing what a marvellous
effect a little care along this line
will do. There are many places in
Palestine where streets cross leaving
little patches of green and offering OPP
portunities for artistic effects. The
people should cultivate this habit Of
making things look their best, and
Palestine would soon be the best look
ing town in all this section.

to the Herald office and get an Off

of the man who freed Roosevelt. If
you have not paid your dollar you
should get busy and come across.
The campaign fund needs your dollar
and it needs it right now. The state
has already contributed some six or
eight thousand dollars, but it should
give as much more. This is the ban
ner democratic state, and should live
up to its reputation.

And he pondered long while. Then
he said:

But the learned men about him pushed
aside that statement. He had been in

he must have observed other things
And the guest. after very great

From the Bohemian.


The origin of ''23' in connection with
'skidoo' has been variously explained.
Theatrical men claim that it was first
used among them, and originated
from combination of eighteen rep
resenting the number of parts given
to an actor or actress who had
become persona non grata to the
resenting the number of weeks in which
the parts were to be learned, and during
which the manager took care 1.-The ghost
failed to walk in the direction of the un-
fortunate Thespian of whom he wished
to rid himself. But in horse racing cir
cles this claim is ridicliled and the rae
ing man asserts that ''23" originated from
the number of horses entered for the
SUBURBAN handicap in New York. The
number OF entries in this race was limit
ed to twenty two but on one occasion
twenty-three horses went to the starting
post. and one horse-the twenty-third-
was ordered Off the field Circus men
explain the term as the last item on the
program. which was the chariot race.
During the performance the canvasmen
would lie around and Sleep but when this
race was In progress they were aroused
Dy the boss canvasman so sthat they
might get ready for work as soon as the
race was over A claim that deserves
more serious attention Is that which at
tributes the origin of this number to the
expulsion Of Adam from the Garden of
Eden as found related in the twenty-third
verse Of the third chapter of the Book
OF Genesis. 1t reads: Therefore the
Lord God sent him forth from the Garden
OF Eden to till the ground from whence
he was taken"

that happened to my old friend Capt.

Capt. Gotschalk and his first mate

morning they walked in the Row and
saw the fashionables housekeeping; they
strolled in Picadilly, where all the great
clubs are; they looked over the guns and
mems things in Bond street; and lastly
they got hungry.
For lunch they entered a smart-look-
ing restaurant A maid in a white cap
took their order. The things in the little
restaurant were rather cheaper than they
had expected. Still. that was all the
better, provided the quality was good.
"In a few minutes the maid put two
plates Of thin. transparent fluid with a
somewhat salty taste before Capt Got
schalk and his mate.
THE mate tasted 1t and coughed.
Put a name to this, cap'n, will ye?'
said he.
Capt Gotschalk tried a spoonful, and
| then beckoned the waitress to him.
