Forging is a serious oftense; it is a deliberate otfense but there are few persons so lost to sense of mercy as not to commend the action Of the prosecuting witness and the assistant prosecuting attorney which liberated N. c. GOebel with the in- junction to go and sin no more"
 Probably the man has learned his lesson, the chances are that he will be saved to society and hereafter lead a useful life.
 Had he been sent to the penitent- iary the chances are just as strong, yes. stronger, that he would have formed criminal associations and prey ed upon society when discharged. At least he would have been separated from his wife and the happiness of two lives wrecked.
 Technically and legally GOebel was a criminal, but few people will con demn a crime that was committed to save a starving woman.

 YES,

Looking toward the shadows of the penItenuary walls and then the com plaint or forgery was withdrawn.
 That's the good news that's await ing M. c. GOebel, who has been in jail since November I5, facing the serious charge.
 This morning Goebers wife came to the office of Deputy Prosecuting Attorney John F. Murphy and told this story:
 He did this for me. We had been married only three months. l was sick in bed. My husband had lost his position He had no work and we had no money. He was staying home and taking care of me. In desperation he went out and fOrg- ed this note for Sl74O to get things I needed. It's terrible that he must 80 to the penitenuary for this. He's never been in trouble before, and he did 1t for me-"
 The young wife brought with her letter from reputable business man who interests himself in men down on their luck. This business man corrObOrated the wife's story, and asked that mercy be shown if possible.
 We can always send a man to the penitentiary," said Attorney Murphy. We can afford to take a chance on saving a man and sending him back to an honest life. I'll withdraw the complaint today, You better be at the jail to receive your husband. Sometimes a man coming out of jail heads straight for saloon in his despair"
 No, heu not do that" said the pretty young wife, confidently, hes not that kind" And she went out to face the storm with the joy in her heart that her man" was coming  home to her.
 John Richmond, salOOnist, prose cutting witness, and Clay Philbrick, whose name was forged by GOebel, and all others concerned in the case have signitied to the deputy prose Cutor that the withdrawal Of the complaint is satisfactory to them.- Seattle Star.

THE ALASKAN CENSUS.

The congressional act which pro- yides for the taking of the United States census specifically states that the census taking shall commence April 10, 1910, and be completed with in thirty days,
 The Alaskan census will commence the latter part of this month
 It is a grave injustice to Alaska to have the census taken at this time. Many people are out of the country, and, try as they will, the census enumerators cannot get on their rolls even the major portion of these absentees.
 As a result Of the date for the AL askau census being arbitrarily set forward nearly four months. Alaska will undoubtedly lose several thous- and population-on the census rolls.
 The reason for setting forward the date of the Alaskan census given out by the chief of the census bureau is that at this time of the year it will be easier to reach the outlying

Timber Decay Costs Millions

Millions of feet of timber and fin
ished lumber rot every year in rail-
road ties, bridges, trestles, piles,
farm buildings, fences, poles, and
mine props. The lumber consum-
/ ing public of the United States pays
perhaps thirty to forty millions dol
( lars a year to make good the losses
from wood decay.
These great drains are a source
of more and more concern each
year. Chemists and engineers who
have to do with the uses of wood
are working increasingly on the
problem. The u. S. Forest Ser
vice has men who devote their
whole time to it. The Importance
of the problem can not be overesti-
mated. Millions of dollars are an
nually saved by preservative treat
meut of timbers, but much yet re-
mains to be learned.
Wood decay is caused by fungus
a vegetable growth sometimes so
small that it can be seen only with
the microscope. It's roots or
branches, like minute hairs, force
their way into the wood tissues
and absorb or eat away the solid
parts. The collapse which results
is called decay. Timber is artif-
cially preserved by forcing into its
cells and pores certain substances
which prevent the growth of fungi.
AS long as this substance is present
in sufficient quantity, the germs of
decay-the threads and spores of
fungus-can not enter, and the
wood is preserved. This often
means doubling and sometimes
the life of the timber.
The United States Government
the investigations of the
treatment of timber of |
such importance that the business
of one office of the United States /
Forest Service, that Of Wood pres |
ervation, with new headquarters at
Wis, is given over en-
tirely to the work of experiments
in cooperation with railroad com
panies and other corporations and |
in prolonging the life
Of railroad ties, mine props, bridge
fence posts and transmits
sion poles.
The lengthening the lifeoftimber
means the saving of thousands #
dollars annually through doing
away with the heavy expense of la
Dor and cost of material for renewal.

simost the entire flock. These dis
eases, like contagious diseases Of man,
are caused by bacteria or germs.
These are hny cells which gain en-.
trance to the body and grow there.
Death is not caused by the germs
themselves. but by certain pOisons
which they give or. After germs gain
entrance to the body they are difficult
to combat since anything that viii kill
the germ will usually kill the fowl
also. Germs cannot gain a foothold
In a perfectly healthy bird; hence one
Of the best means Of combating con
tagious diseases Is by keeping the
flock so healthy that they cannot get
q start. Another important measure
Is the liberal use Of dlsinfectants
about the poultry houses and yards.
Plenty Of sunshine in the poultry house
will help to keep it clean. Selling off
the old stock before It becomes feeble
and useless IL a great help. since it is
these old birds that are the first to
succumb to unfavOrable conditions.
One Of the most serious Of these con
tagious diseases is cholera. The com.
mon symptoms are great thirst, list
lessness and yellowsh or greenlsh
dr0ppings. Heroic measures are need
cd to stamp out this disease. All sick
fowls should be killed and burned
The yards and houses should be thor
oughly sprinkled with some disinfect-
ant solution. A coal tar dip mixture
is good, or carbolic acid may be used
at the rate Of one gallon to twenty gal |
Ions of water. The drinking water
should be dislnfected by adding one
part Of corrosive sublimate to every
1900 parts of water. There Is no way
to cure the fowls after they once get
the disease. All that can be hoped for
Is to save the well ones.
Probably the most common poultry /
disease is roup. This is really a germ
disease, but the germs cannot well

feed and care, and in the fall the re-
suits were tabulated. 1t was found
that the chickens from the strong VI

this lack Of selection for vitality that
