this is true is perhaps due to tie
fact that few people stop to consider
the expense of publishing live
country newspaper. They forget
that paper ard material cost money.
that three or four CompCstOrs for
six days III the week require some
cash. They perhaps do not know
that an editor who has the inter
ests of his town at heart. works
continually perhaps including Sun
day, and many times until mid
night, rustling up an editorial or
news story, shaping them into
language that will bring strangers
to their town and business to their
merchants. The editors sole OBJ
jcct in view is to boost the town,
and work day and night for the
interest of their patrons. Some
people believe that the newspaper
is a free dumping ground for all
the i'll trouble, and SORROWS Of the
world, where an editor will write
up for the, free cussings or free

In Respect to Ourselves.

Barnum the great show man
used to say if he had the news
papers on his side success was as
surcd. He said no single handed
talker on earth could beat him
boosting but he had to give in to
the newspapers. While he could
talk to few hundred the news
papers talked every week to untold
thousands. The Burlington Jour
nal recently printed the following
sensible advice concerning the
value of the local newspaper as a
booster for its town and country:
We have the booster man, the
booster woman, the professional
booster, and all kinds of booster
societies and organizations, all of
whom are ready to bleed and die
for the advancement of their home
and country, who will spend hours
of time and an unlimited amount
of wind in telling about the great
advantages of the most prosperous
town of the county. This is all
good so far as it goes, and it is a
feature to be admired in the sub
jcct of the case. But my dear
boosters, how many of you realize
that the only real and genuine
boosting that is done, that reaches
out and touches the spot that brings
Il response, is the newspaper of
your city. Men may talk, rave,
tear til -ir hair out by the roots,
and back up their arguments with
all the brass bands in the universe
in praise of their homes, and yet
it reaches out no farther than the
sound of their voice.
Your newspaper goes out all
over the United States. and many
of them to the four quarters of the
earth, and yet the country news
paper receives less thanks, more
kicks, and gets less remuneration
for its services, than does any other
business in the known world. That

Many people object to taking the
strong medicines usually prescribed ly

commonly used are the WAGNER,
Winesap (commom Wealthy and
Mo. Pippin. But since the Wealthy
is an early variety in most sections
of the state and not considered a
first class fruit, it is best not to use
it. The Mo, Pippin, while a good
bearer and good shipper, lacks
quality hence ability to sell well.
This leaves only the WAGNER and
Winesap as first class commercial
apples that are we'll adapted to use
as filters.
Pears either on dwarf roots or as
standards make good filters for
apple orchards, in most parts of
the state.
In sections where the peach is a
commercial success in makes an
excellent filler and can be used
advantageously it this way. The
cherry should never be used as a
filler for the apple orchard since it
requires entirely different methods
of cultivation and irrigation.
If the soil is moist enough
and yet we'll drained, and well
rlpcned nursery stock can be Sc
cured before cold weather sets in,
fall planting is probably the best,
but since our trees frequently con-
tinuc to grow in the nursery until
late in November it is almost i'm
possible to get naturally rlpened
stock in time for fall planting
For this reason early spring plant
ing is preferable. Secure the trees
in the fall and carefully heal them
in near to where they are to be
planted SO that during the first
warm days of spring they can be
properly planted.

President Roosevelt gives the public
leaf from the book of his expert
encc. He tells how he entered
politics with prejudice against
laboring men and against those who
plead the cause of the toilers. He
SAYS that he had studied what
were then considered the orthodox
political economist AMI that his
associates were for the most part
lawyers or business men Of wealth
who quite sincerely took the Ordin-
airy wealthy business mans view
of labor matters. He describes
his connection with an investiga-
ton which opened his eyes to the
unsanitarv conditions surrounding
cigar works, and how he Joined in
reporting "A bill for the lawyers OF
the various employees and tenement
house owners against the law and
he and few representatives of the
cigarmakcrs' union in favor of the
law. He continues his story by
citing the contest before the court
in which the Judges tool. the sides
of the EMPLOYERS and tenement
house owners:
The Judges, as was quite ma
tural, shared the feelings of the
classes from which they were
drawn, and with which they associ-
at-d The decision went against
lc dWcllcrs in the tenement houses.
Any thing like an effective reforma-
ton Of tenement house conditions
was thereby deferred for fifteen or
twenty years, and during that time
men, women, and children were
guaranteed their liberty, to tester
in sodden misery
His reason for entering upon this
narrative is given as follows:
My reason for relating this
anecdote is because from that day
to this | have felt an ever growing
conviction Of the need of having on
the bench men, who, in addition
to being learned in the law and up
right, shall possess a broad under

their Countrymen as whole, so

The soil, the variety, and the
section of the state all materially
aid in determining the distance at
which apple trees are to be planted.
In Western Washington on rich,
deep soil where there is abundance
Of rain large growing trees like the
Northern Spy require at least
thirty five feet and should have
forty feet.
In Eastern Washington III sec
tons where the trees do not grow
so large but the question of mois-
ture is paramount the trees should
be set from twenty eight feet with
out filters to thirty-three feet with
filters While in irrigated sections
where the moisture element IS
under the control of the grower
they may be planted at from
twenty five feet without filters to
thirtv-t three feet with filters.
There are many planting plans
in use in the state at the present
time; the square and heXagonal
plans are more commonly used
than all the rest together. Each
of these plans has advantages that
the other has not and should be
odapted to their special use. The
chief advantages Of the square

that these openings or wells
formed by the crowns give hcaith-

The hexagonal plan gives the
greatest number OF trees per- acre

recent bulletin ISSUED by the Wash
ington Experimental Station at
Pullman on the Planting of the
Apple Orchard.
Land that is slightly higher than
the surrounding country is the best
for orchard purposes, since it at
fords better air drainage, thus less
ening the danger OF late spring
frosts and usually provides good
soil drainage. 4 south or southern
slope is better for early or highly
eolored fruits, while a north or
northeast slope is best for late or
winter fruits.
Practically all kinds of land in
the state are being used for orchard
purposes, and when the apple is
very cosmopolitan in its choice vet
the deep rich loamy or basaltic
soils, free from all alkali, hardpan
or substratum of shale rock are
producing the best and most pro-
ductive trees. Very sandy, light
DRY or even rocky soils produce
short lived unproductivc trees
while heavy wet clay soils produce
large tardv bearing trees.
The greater part OF the soils of
the sem-arid districts of Washing
ton while rich in mineral plant
foods are frequently deficient in
nitrogen and humus. These def
ciencics should be arranged for if
not provided before planting the
tYeas By means of Cover-crops,
greeu panure or commercial ter
filters.
A good orchard soil possesses at
least three strong characteristics;
good water drainage, good texture
and plenty OF available plant food
Before starting to plant, the SOIL
should be deeply plowed, thorough
" subdued and in perfect tillage'
as it is very expensive to prepare
land or subdue it after it is Planted
to trees. If the orchard is to be
irrigated it is an excellent plan to
run the water over the land after
the grading and levelng is done to
determine if it will irrigate as 1t is
intended
While many orchards are beng
planted on raw sage brush land
and a few on land that is not even
cleared vet, it is the experience OF
the majority of our best fruit men
that in the land run it pays to III
or even crop the land for one OF
two years or at least pillow under
gr,,n crop of rye or Canada peas
before planting the trees.
When it is necessary to plant
trees on poorly prepared lana
small amount of Nitrate OF SODA
mixed with the soil as the tree
are being planted adds very mater
iallv to their growth during the
first year after planting.
Only one year old, well grown
but not over-grown trees should be
planted. Older trees increase th'
cost of transportation and planting
and are usually headed too hie'
for the best results.

tree, has many advantages over '"'
