standard commercial winter apple not
mentioned in the fol egoing list.
Exhibits i'm All Glasses.
1--WE are promised exhibits in all
classes from the carload to the single
plate" said Manager Rice after the
meeting. "All over the northwest
there is keen interest in the coming
show and it is evident that competition
will be unusually sharp. The spirit of
friendly rivalry is apparent on all
sides and this will make the snow
winner. I believe our one great
problem will be to provide sufficient
room for the exhibits. North Yakima
is certainly going to be we'll represent
ed, judging from the assurances given
tonight"
Gilbert Is Still Fighting.
H. M. Gilbert, who won second prize
in the carload contest at the first ap-
pie show and who came perilously
near winning first prize, announces his
intention of competing in at least
three carload contests this year and
promises to make it interesting for
all competitors. Mr.. Gilbert is a
strong supporter of the National Apple
show and will not only compete with
his own fruit but is urging all other
growers to get into the game.

Thaw and His Mother.
News and Observer.

news ana observer.
The spectacle of the mother of Thaw
standing by her graceless son through
his disgrace, crime and ignominv has
been one that has alone relieved the
proceedings Of the lowness OF the
Thaw son and the Nesbitt woman.
Before her son Killed White, she had
drunk the dregs, as she thought,
from his spendthrift profiignry. Bu'
she hoped that after he hal snw-d
the widest of the wild oats he would
settle down and reform. Then came
the severe strain of his marriage
with Evelyn Nesbitt-good enough
for him, it is true, but enough To al
most break a mothers heart TO see
her son wed wanton. The killing
of White, the disclosure of the vile
ness of her son and of the murdered
man, the trial, the going to an insane
asylum, the repeated attempts to
have him freed-all these narrowing
public hearings would have caused
any but a mother to turn away with
loathing from the moral degenerate

votion to the son who deserved to be
left to his own fate. His conduct has
brought disgrase to his family. dissi-
pated his mother fortune, and given
her deep sorrow. She thinks she
would be happier if his desire for
freedom had been granted. She is
mistaken. Young Thaw is IA moral
pervert and the best thing for his
mothers peace of mind is for him to
be incarcerated all the balance of his
life. 1t is a pity that the Evelyn wo-
man couldn't be placed in solitary
confinement in Alaska. The banish-
ment and confinement of these two
degenerates wonld be the best way to
meet the ends of justice. And, while
the aged mother will sorrow that her
son is not freed, she will have no fur
ther anguish by his depraved actions
which would give her continued anx-
iety if he should be turned loose.
1t is a pity that moral perverts
and mad-dogs could not all be shut
up.

Farm Values and Good Roads.
Charlotte Observer.

Sh"A ioetC ooecisci
1t is said that in Jackson county,
Alabama, the price OF farm lands has
risen from six to fifteen dollars an
acre and in Bradley county, Tennes-
see, it has doubled since the building
of good roads in those localities.
Men seeking farms prefer those that
are located on good roads and will
pay higher prices for them. With the
progress that is being made in the
establishment of good roads and in
the knowledge OF their advantage to
the owners of farms the time will
soon come when it will be difficult to
find purchasers, at any decent price
for farms which are not so located.
Intensive farming, the greatest
yield possible per acre. is the order
of the day with intelligent farmers,
and it is spreadingso rapidly that in
the near future the man who does not
follow this plan will be left so far be-
hind that he will not be considered in
the class of producers. Hand in hand
with these new farming methods go
easy access to markets and cheaper
transportation of farm products to
centres of trade. These can be secured
by those farms only which have ac-
cess to good roads. Great highways
between widely separated sections OF
the country over wich there can be
easy and rapid travel is a condition
greatly to be desired. but such roads
will not add nearly so much to any
section of the country through which
they pass as will a number of we'll
made roads leading from the centres
of trade into the surrounding farm
ing territory. The latter are the
roads which will build up the towns
and add to the prosperity of the
rural districts.
