TOOK THEIR MATES ON TRIAL.
one-Ysar Marriages Once Common
Thing In Scotland.

They who talk glibly Of shortterm
marriages and affinities do not know
that in Scotland one-year marriage,
termed handfasting, was once legal
and fairly common. It was abandoned
on account Of its injustice to the wo-
man.
Scott, in ''The Monastery" mentions
this one-year marriage, making Sir
Julian Avenal say:
I'VE take our wives, like our horses.
upon trial. When we are handfasted.
as we term It, we are man and wife for
q year and day; that space gone BY,
each may choose another mate, or at
their pleasure. may call the priest to
marry them for life."
There was no disgrace attached to
handfasting. It was, indeed, more
often practiced among the great than
the lowly. But the poor girl whose
trial husband rejected her at the
years end rarely found It possible to
secure . permanent mate.

Simple Remedy for LockJaw.

Cal Johnson, an old-time printer,
was in the city recently and claims to
have simple and effective cure for
lockjaw, one that never fails. Re-
Numbering his boyhood days when the
rusty nail was always lying in wait
for the barefoot boy and serving as q
menace to all who attempted to pass
the summer months without shoes on
their feet, Mr.. Johnson thinks that his
advice may be Of some use to the ia
Tiers and mothers who still have bare
foot boys.
The remedy is to smoke the wound
caused by the rusty nail or other i'm
plement of torture to the small boy
with q wooden cloth. Twenty minutes
with this kind of treatment, it is said,
will take out the worst case of In.
Illumination and cause speedy heal
Ing of the wound without disagreeable
results.-Kansas City Journal

STARTLING TALK
BY NOTED TEACHER
[By Associated Press. l

Denver, July 3.-The National
Council of Education being the first
active preliminary gathering, prelim-
mary to the National Education asso-
citation which begins Monday. held
It's first session today. The prin-
cipal discussion was on the report
of the committee on provision for
exceptional children in public schools.
Some teaching is so unscientific
and consequently so spiritless that it
would make most any child delin-
quent,' said ]. C. McUeill, superin-
tendent of schools of Memphis, Tenn,
in an address. Permanent aversion
to school, said he. lis the legitimate
result of putting children at work on
studies they are not mature enough
to comprehend.
He condemned the attempt to put
high school branches into grammar
grades and intermediate studies into
primary grades.

OVER s500,000
SALES ARE MADE

That Palisade has had a wonderful
year OF prosperity and that the fruit
crop is to be the biggest that section
has ever known is made plain by the
Palisade Tribune today. which gives
in detail a total of s564. .470 realty
sales made during the past six months
in the Palisade district alone. and
then sets forth hundred other
proofs OF the prosperity of that sec
tion.
In part, today's Tribune says:
The daily sentinel., 1909-07-03

The transfers of real estate made
in this section the past six months
have amounted to considerably over
half a million dollars, and prices have
gradually strengthened all along the
line. While the sales do not equal
those of a year ago. the showing is
remarkable when all conditions are
considered. Then natural boom in
fruit land values followed a season
of remarkable prices for fruit. and
the fact that the exceptional condi-
tions surrounding this section were
just becoming recognized served as
an incentive to stimulate buying. In
the fall the money stringeucy that
existed in other places the year be-
fore began to be felt here by reason
of the poor prices the ranchmen re-
ceived for their fruit The heavy
hand of the panic had left its i'm
print in all parts of the country and
the fruit growers in other sections
lacked organization, a weakened mar
ket being the natural outcome The
general prices received in 1908 We're
much below the average: and, al
though the output in the district was
so per cent in excess of 1907. the re-
suits in the aggregate were not up to
the conditions anticipated by the
fruit growers.
There was no reaction i'm land val
ues in this section as a result of the
above conditions the people them
selves have too much faith in what
they possess and wherever there has
been selling since the first of the
year it will be seen by the transfers
herewith published that prices have
been gradually moving upward. II
must not be inferred from this, how
ever. that all of the Palisade land is
exceptionally high-priced. The un-
usual conditions and exceptional pro-
ductiveness of the soil have made
demand for IL at remarkable prices
but these prices have been based up-
on actual production and not upon
hctitious valuations. while the buy
ers have been glad to pay what has
been asked.
Fully one-half of the Palisade dis
trict is yet to come into bearing. and
much of this land can be secured by
the man of small means. On the 9th
er side of the river is a tract of about
1000 acres, known as Orchard me-
sa. which is about to be reclaimed to
truit culture by installing an i'm
mense irrigation system. Work on
TINS big ditch has been commenced
and will be completed by the first of
next April. Large gangs of men are
now working all along the line. This
land is considered by competent men
TO be almost equal to the noted soil
OF Palisade, and it gives promise of
being among the most valuable to be
found in the whole country. This
land can be purchased for a small
amount per acre. When water is
turned on 1t there is no question
about the results.
The outlook for the Palisade dis
lIlct was never so good as at present.
ihe crop promises to exceed that of
last year by fully so per cent.
