Setting Out Fruit Trees.
Some fruit growers believe that the
most appropriate time to plant an
apple orchard is in the fall, from
about the last of October till the mid
die of November, when the ground is
loose and moist enough to work we'll.
but not wet and sticky. At that time
the growing season is over and the
trees will hardly be injured at all by
che change from nursery to orchard.
The roots that have been cut In dig
ging and preparing for resetting will
callous over, and the ground will set
tie firmly about the roots. and in the
spring the trees are ready to awaken
into new life without check to their
growth.

Negligence In High Places.

II the Cherry mine was equipped
and operated within the law. then the
law should be changed. A mining
board of five practical men has con-
trolled mine regulation in this State
for years, Five months ago this board
was supplemented by mining inves.
tigation commission. wrose especial
duty is to study mining conditions
with the view OF safeguarding human
life.
The holocaust at Cherry was clearly
preyentable, but no steps were taken
to prevent it. This is simply another
instance Of the policy Of appointing to
important commissions men who re-
gard their appointment as merely a
mark of the high honor in which they
believe themselves to be held by their
fellow-men, and involving no obliga-
tion to the public.-C Chicago journal.

storminx the Citadel.

High-tariff apologists AFFECT some.
thing like scorn at the manifest rest
lessness of the American West under
the rule of Eastern mill bosses.
They are never weary of pointing
with pride to the inflexible Senate ma
jority. They tell US that even If the
West should elect Democratic House
of Representatives, it will be barren
victory. For they own the Senate.
1t must be something of shock
that these "stand-patters" find that
two-thirds of the sovereign States
have passed resolutions calling for a
constitutional convention to change
the method of electing United States
Senators.
Also THAT the constitution gives no
option to Congress in the matter, but
makes the constitutional convention
mandatory when enough States have
Joined in it.
The old order of trust-owned Sem
ate Is perilously near the supreme jolt
that will put national law-making pow
The change will not come in day,
nor in a year. Special privilege will
not descend from its throne without
a prolonged fight. But 1t is reassur-
ing to know that the people are storm
ing the citadel of trust power at
Washington.
The times and the seasons are pro.
pitious for change. A Democratic
House of Representatives next year
may still find a stone wall erected by
the American House of Lords. But
the fact that the people want change
will be demonstrated.
And 1t will serve notice to the upper
house that the supreme fount of au-
thority-the people-are getting ready
to make the Senate itself response
BILE body.
Thus the mills of justice grind on,
and special privilege approaches its
doom.
The Sugar Trust and the Tariff.
A year ago the secretary of the
American Sugar Refining Company
laid before the Ways and Means Com
mittee of Congress a long statement
setting forth the precarious nature of
his company's business, and, demand
ing high import tariff as the only
means of keeping the sugar refining
industry alive. The committee grant
ed the sugar monopoly the privilege
of imposing special tax on every con-
sumner of sugar in the United States,
SO that the people of this country pay
about cents pound more for sugar
than the same article would cost them
in Europe. But the sugar barons were
not satisfied with this.
They bribed poor weighers and
clerks in the New York custom house,
and stole $30,0O0,0OO from the United
States treasury. Besides paying Z per
cent dividends on $90,OOO,0OO capital,
they rolled up a vast surplus and be-
came the biggest money-lenders in
Wall street.
The Taft administration cannot sat
isfy Western protest by merely prose
cutting the weighers who foolishly ac-
cepted brides. Public sentiment de-
mands the imprisonment of few sugar
barons and those persons In high
places whose complaisance permitted
the sugar trust to continue its steal
ing long after the facts had been
made known.---EXchange.

Do not make the'food too sloppy for
young pigs. Keep plenty Of charcoal
in the pen. Put packet Of EPSON
salts In the food occasionally. Cas-.
trate pigs at three weeks. not later.
Observe regularity in feeding, and let
them out for run occasionally. AS
the young pigs come in do not allow
them to lose their baby fat, but keep
them in good condition right from the
time they are weaned.
Cut out and burn all dead and dis.
eased branches Of fruit trees and
bushes as soon as they are detected.
Often the removal Of diseased branch
will save the whole tree and save 9th

1t is a mark OF poor farm manage,

following method:

close tightly all doors or other open.
ings while the liquid is vaporizing
Do the work in the daytime, when no
lantern or artificial light will be nee
essary, for the ,vapor OF carbon bisul-
phide is highly infammable and ex-
plosive. and there is danger OF a seri.
GUS fire when burning flame is
brought into its presence. For the
same reason do not smoke pipe or
cigar when the liquid is poured into
the pans. The vapor is also highly
poisonous. hence one should hastily
leave the bin. as soon as the work is
done and not reenter till after the
vapor has done its work and the bin
been thoroughly aired for several
hours. The yapor is heavier than air
and settles among the grain, killing
all insects in its reach. One treat
