WOOD SUCCESSOR
TO JUDGE RUST.

The Sacramento Bee of the "a De-
cemEer.
The appointment of Fred V. Wood,
of Alamo, Contra Costa county, as
the successor TO the K. G. Rust,
superior. Judge of Amador county,
was announced to-day from the
governors office.
In appointing Wood to the vacancy
Governor Gillett was influenced in q
large measure by a friendship that
has extended over long series of
years.
The friendship began in Wisconsin
when the governor and Wood lived
in the same town and we're young to-
gether. Since coming to this state
this regard has continued, although
the governor has made his home lin
Northern California and Wood in
the bay cities.
Woods experience in official life
has been limited to a term as police
court judge of Oakland. His office
is scill in Oakland, but he makes his
home in Alamo, Contra costa county.
In this wise is bitter fight among
the lawyers and the men who do pcli-
tics settled in Amador county for the
time being. The Amador county bar
association wanted successor to
Judge Rust appointed from among
the lawyers IN the county, although
no Endorsement was made. The re-
publican county central committee
wanted the appointee to come from
outside the. county, one who would
bring strength to the republican
ticket.

Bees Can Hear.

Bees can hear. In sparsely settled countries, where farmers have very few hives of bees and are not in 1t for the money, they have very primitive methods of catching bees when they swarm, or, in other words, when the young bees start to find home of their own. Sometimes these bees get away and go for miles and are moi caught But neighbors are on the watch during this season and most are caught.
 How? By throwing leaves, small sticks, etc. to arrest their flight, be. cause they will immediately fly around anything in their way and these bring them to the ground. Now, sometimes these swarms are SO high in the air that they cannot be reached by throw ing. so farmers get old pans, kettles, etc. and make as large a racket as possible. and the bees are attracted by the sounds and immediately light near them. Now. what better proof is needed that bees can hear?-Letter in Cleveland Plain Dealer.

The future farmer will subirrigate his land and defy drought as well as floods. He will become a scientific forester. and every farm will produce wood and lumber as well as wheat and apples. A single acre will produce what ten acres yield now. Women will work outdoors as heartily as men-in fact they will be the horticulurists and the truck gardeners. There will be closer relation between the producer and the consumer, ignoring a horde of middlemen who frequently waste more than is destroyed by ignorant help and insect foes combined Under the alli- ancc with the school the farm will be valued not only for its gross weight of products, but for It's poems and Its edu- cation. As our schools become places for applying as well as acquiring knowledge, our farm homes will be- come integral parts of the garden school and the school farm. The alli- ance between the home and the school will become very close.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portions of the ear There is only one way to cure deaf ness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lin ing of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing and when it is entirely closed, Deaf ness is the rseult, and unless the in flammation can be taken out and this tube restored to it's normal condition hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an in famed condition of the mucous sur. faces.

rled him over the ground at splen. did speed, and he left all others far behind.
 All summer with Dudley Blount and Paul Frazer contcuding for Dol ly's favor, he had seen little of her. She had loved the swift, easy motion of the high powered cars, and she had been unable to resist their charms. But since the athletic fad had struck Chestcrtou the owners of cars were decidedly out of 1t.
 Not alone were they regarded as per sons too lazy to use natures own means of locomouou, but in addition they got themselves very much dis liked by speeding past pedestrian par ties and raising dust that made walking unpleasant.
 "They should be kept off the course at least" said Dolly severely. "The roads are for the people and not mere ly for a few selfish persons who have money enough to buy cars ' Mayliug smiled, but said nothing, Not so long ago Dolly had protested against the deliberate fashion in which pedestrians occupied the road to the annoyance of autoistS.
 Now the shoe piuched the other foot and she had changed her opinions. There might, after all, be a chance to win her hand before the walking fad died.
 The situation was not due Co the fact that Mayling cared for Dolly while she did not care for him. but stephen Stanford. Dolly's father, had made a fortune in Chcstcrton, and Mayllng argued that the easiest way to win a fortune was to marry one.
 With the coming of the athletic craze he had seen his opportunity to win, and he had pressed hIs advantage hard. Now he was training Dolly for the ladies race, which was to be a feature of the coming weeks sports, and he was making the most of his opportunities.
 Blount and Frazer. whom he chose to regard as his disappointed rivals, persisted in running their cars over the triangular course on which the races were to be tried, and Dolly waxed more and more angry each time the cars passed them with the "honk" that was capable of so many interpretations.
 What made it worse was that she really cared for Dudley Blount and she was both hurt and angry at the calm fashion in which he had aban- doned all effort to win her favor when she had decided that walking was the thing.
 Dolly had expected that he would make some fight against the new fad, but instead he had laughed when she urged him 10 take up the exercise.
 You would do well to leave the car in the garage for awhile" she coun- seled. Walking is good for you"
 'T get plenty of that when the car breaks down." he reminded her. "G guess I'll stick to wheels, Dolly, and let you do the walking"
