INDIAN TWINS ARE

Father Convinces Tribesmen Chill

Other Twins Put To Death.

/BENDELTON. Ore, April 6.-Super-

been the impelling cause for the sac

the Cayuse Indian tribe for more than
a century and half and this same
dread of displeasing spirits Is the rea-

and are learning the white man 4

beauties. They were budding into
womanhood when the young Bannock

Cayuse tribe, became enamored with
the duo and finally kidnapped them
and fed toward the Bannock territory

Three hundred Cayuse warriors. head

but the Bannocks with their prizes es-
capped.
The chieftain father swore vengeance.
Runners were dispatched TO the Wal

lance was formed and war declared
on the Snake river redmen. But be-
fore the allies could get their party
together. 1000 savage Bannocks cross
ed the mountains and swooped down
on the Cayuse braves who numbered
700 men. They met at the confluence
of the Umatilla and Columbia rivers
and for three days a bloody battle
ragged. The remnants OF the Cayuse
warriors were driven over the Cas-.
cades, leaving their dead behind.
Since then twins have been looked
upon as a curse, a sign OF misfortune.
A superstitious fear OF them sprung
up and to guard against the recurrence
of another visitation of spiritual dis

all twins should be killed at birth.

FUEL FROM WATER.
PLAN WHICH MAY REVOLUTION

Missourian Said to Have Perfected Method of Burning" Water, End ing Use of Coal and Oil for
 Creation of Power.

St. Louis-A native-born Missouri an proposes to solve the fuel problem and revolutionize the industrial world by burning water for fuel.
 He proposes to abolish coal mining and coal hauling, to make possible an ocean leviathan which will cross from New York to Liverpool in three days, to have at hand always and every where never-ending fuel free of cost to all corners.
 Capt. Warren's scheme has the in dorsement of Nikola Tesla, that fla nous wizard of science. The captain has recently returned to New York from two years absence on sailing vessel, and has brought with him the crystallized result of many months of study and research. While he has been sailing the deep or alternately leading the strenuous and simple life ashore he has steadily pursued his expert ments, building boats and apparatus for the purpose, and now he is pre- pared to give the results to the world.
 The invention is nothing less revolu- tionary than manufacturing fuel out of water
 The world now secures power from water by utilizing its weight on an oldfashioned water wheel or modern turbine. It also utilizes the power of water by turning it into steam. Capt Warren's invention separates the

Easy to Raise Tomato Plants.

It is only by raising your own plants from seed that you are always absolutely sure of the variety you will have In case you buy youl plants, you cannot always depend upon the reliability of the person from whom you buy, and you may not get the variety of tomatoes you desire.
 It is not difficult to raise plants from seed. Anyone who has had eX' perience with house plants can grow good tomato plants. A sufficient num- Der for any ordinary garden can be started by sowing seed in shallow box, or a large flower pot containing good, rich soil, putting the seed about one-quarter inch deep. Place the box or pot in sunny window in the house. Care should be taken that the soil does not become too dry, but not water enough to make the soil soggy. When the plants are about an inch high, there is a constant ten dency for the tops to turn towards the sun. It is therefore well to turn the box occasionally to insure good, straight-grown plants.

Small Farming That Pays.

Ranch days are drawing to a close everywhere east of the Missouri and are numbered between the Missouri and the Rock Mountains Many a man found failure in the section farm and success on 80 acres. Towards smaller farms is the trend of today's farming, and as the years roll on and the people flock in, the farms will be- come smaller and smaller, the people more contented and the wealth more equally distributed
 There are many ways of making the small farm profitable today As a per son has fancy, so may he almost choose his work. If he likes dairy ing, he can succeed on the small farm with good dairy cows. If he likes fruit growing, he can find localities where much can usually be secured from few acres. The grain raiser has learned that fewer acres better culti- vated bring in greater net profits than a large acreage half-farmed and abused. There never were better chances for the small farm.

Ever since a small boy have been great admirer of a railroad locomo- tive. A short time ago, while waiting for train in Pittsburg, I noticed a new and unusually large passenger en- zine standing on a siding, and 1 wan dered over to it. It proved to be one of the latest machines-a "ten-wheeler, compound cylinder" engine. I walked from one side to the other and scruti- nized every part, from the electric headlight to the vestibule attachment at the rear of the tank. I was just turning to leave, to look at another, when the engineer pleasantly said:
 Better come up in the cab and see how nice it is.''
 Being only too glad of an opportu- nity, l lost no time in climbing up and inspecting the nerve-center of the S0- ton monster. Many times I had been in engine cabs, but in this one I no- ticed something I never had seen in any other
 It was a small, oblong box or case fastened on top of the steam-gauge. It was made of bevelplate glass, with gold mountings. In the box, standing on end, was a single, snow-white feath- CT, three inches long by three-quarters of an inch wide.
 Turning to the engineer and point ing to the glass case, I said
 That's rather an unusual, yet a very pretty ornament"
 Yes" he said not only all that, but very much more. It's significance is far greater and more important, and if you are interested, I'll tell you why that white feather is there"
 Being interested, l sat down by him, and said:

CROP ROTATIOA.

Crop rotation. says the RoyaltoI Banner, may be defined as a sys tematic succession of the three gen eral classes of farm crops, namely grain crops, grass crops and culti vated crops in such way as to pro vide large yields of grain, pasturags and forage needed on the farm al the least expense of labor and fer tility..
 Rotation systems must be adapted to each farm or class of farms ane to the particular condition of eact farm With a knowledge of what ii is desired to accomplish by rotation namely, an improvement in the con dition of the soil and correspond ing increase in the net income peI acre it is easily possible, knowing the character of the farm, the eli mate. the line of farming desired and the tastes of the farmer to plan a systematic rotation for that farm which will give the desired result. The essentials of a good rotation are that the net yields in money value per acre be maintained or increased that the land be kept in good phys icaI condition. and free from weeds. Grass crops must be grown on barn. yard manure applied, or both, to keep up the supply of vegetable mat ter. A cultivated crop occasionally and good tillage are necessary to kill hAl coil n good tilth. These things are natur- ally brought about by alternating the three classes of crops-that is, one or more grass crops should appear on each field every four to eight years.
 Corn Or other cultivated crops and manure should appear one or more years in the time grain may be grown.
