Truth About Pecan Raising.

Nature has indeed played pranks
with the pecan producers. Hundreds
Of thousands Of nuts--large, smooth,
thin Of shell and plump Of kernel
have been planted with care, nurtured
with anxiety and brought to fruition
IN trepidation, only to furnish proof to
the earnest orchardist that Nature
held secrets he had not solved, for the
crop was not what was expected, the
products being throw backs,'' as un-
like the parent nut as the woolly
Welsh pony is unlike the round bar
relied, sleek limbed, satin coated thor
oughbred. For years the struggle to
unlock the closed doors of nut knowl-
edge has been under way and success
has made timid approach, but pecan
propagation is to-day almost as
dubious an undertaking for novice
as the geometrical method of piling up
mlillons Dy starting with one pair OF
rabbits and expecting to supply every
glove factory In the land with the pelts
OF their progeny in from three to Ave
years. For the comparative few who
understand the perpetuation Of choice
types by scientific budding and graft
ing ola tree that seemingly possesses
more vagaries than does disorlered
mind, there is wealth to be made, for
the demand is far in excess of supply
and 1t is ever on the increase, says
Technical World Magazine. The
prices are high and are destined to
remain high for years to come; the
trees are hardy and long lived and the
yields from the best of them are
gratifyingly large.

The Unloaded Gun AGAIN.

Believing the gun he held was not
loaded, Charles Swigert, aged -,
Tuesday blew the top off the head of
his 7-year-old-cousin, Willie Swigert,
with charge of shot at East Null
berry, pulling the trigger after re-
marking in fun he was going to shoot,
"shoot away, for the gun isn't loaded
was the reply, followed almost in
stantly by the guns boom. The boys
had been hunting and thought the load
had been removed from the gun. The
dead boy was the son Of the city mar
shall of East Mulberry.

Committee Says Go Ahead.

The state committee does not be-
lieve that Judge Dana's decision ex-
cepting the property of fraternal So
cieties will be sustained by the SUI
preme court, and have ordered all
county assessors and county commits
sioners in the state to 90 ahead and
assess the property Of fraternal socie-
ties just the same as though no de-
cision to the contrary had been rend-
cred in the Shawnee court.
The commission holds that the
Shawnee decision affects only that
Judges judicial district and will have
no bearing over the state until sus-
tanned by the supreme court.

Ask For Gasoline Laws.

The State OIL Inspector department,
of which L. T. Hussey Is the head,
will ask for some legislation regarding
gasoline at the coming session Of the
legislature. Mr.. Hussey says that at
the present time the department has
no way Of enforcing the regulations
regarding the purity of gasoline and
there has been a great deal of COM
plant recently about the quality of
gasoline produced In Kansas. All the
department can do now is to stamp
the specific gravity on the barrel and
collect the fee. Mr.. Hussey will ask
that law be enacted requiring all
gasoline sold In Kansas to have spe-
cific gravity of 68 and providing for
the confiscation of the product unless
the specific gravity does come up to
that figure. Mr.. Hussey believes this
is the only way to bring the standard
of Kansas gasoline up to where It
ought to be.
