Farm Notes.

Salt and charcoal should be kept
in every pen and pasture, so the pigs
can eat all they wish.
Don't try TO see how many chicks
YOU can hatch out, but rather, how
many you can raise.
Dock the lambs while young, using
a sharp chisel for the purpose, and
smear the wound with tar as pre-.
ventive against flies.
Hens should not be closed up in
barrel or box after they have Matched
out their chicks. They need exercise
after three weeks setting.
If the nest is too fiat, the eggs are
sure to roll out from under the hen;
and if too deep, the egs will pile on
top Of each other and get broken.
Poultry pays as we'll as anything on
the farm, particularly chickens and
geese. They seem to be very easily
raised, and they market at fair prices.
Be sure the chicks have plenty OF
encouragement to scratch. They like
it and are benefited thereby in many
ways. The best preventive of leg
weakness is exercise.
Watch closely for lice and mites in
the nests; the pests thrive and null
tiply with wonderful rapidity in these
places and nowhere are conditions for
such increase more favorable.
Exhaustive experiments by experts
have proved that there is no food SO
cheap for the production of milk and
fat as good pasture grass. AS win
ter complement alfalfa undoubtedly
ranks first.

Once upon time there was very
little boy who desired to go out for a
walk with his nurse, but it was raining
that day, so he couldn't. But he was
consoled when informed that he might
go the next day.
Alas! When the next day came rain
was still coming down without abate-
ment. The little boy looked discon-
solately at the heavens.

Varieties of Poultry,

With poultry there is greater op.
portunity for choice among a long
list of breeds than among any other
kinds Of stock. We can select color
according to our taste; we can breed
for eggs or for flesh, for sitters or
non-sitters, for large or small fowls.
We may choose breed whose
eggs are either white, buff, brown,
large or small, and we can be GER
tain that the offspring will resemble
their ncestors.-Farmers Home

at Indianapolis. This conference,
though attended by men representing
almost all gradatiens of the theory OF
tariffs. from the nihilists to the bu-
reaucrats. took the very sensible view
that this country is committed, be-
vond the probability of material alter
alton, to the principle of a protective
tariff. On this broad foundation the
conference based it's demand that tarin
legislation should be guided by all the
disinterested information obtainable.
and suggested that such information
could be secured no more accurately
than by a commission unswayed by
the exigencies of party politics.
But the legislative power must rest
with congress, under the constitution.
and the experience of the country dur
ing the 12O years of it's existence has
been that it's prosperity is founded on
the protective tariff principle. There
are those who fear that tariff COM
mission means a blow at this principle,
and there are those who hope that 1t
does. Both are mistaken. The pro-
posed commission is for the purpose 81
securing, with ample leisure and care,
facts which cannot be secured by tariff
committees in the haste and stress or
a legislative session. So long as the
two parties are arrayed against each
other on the tariff question, the ma
terial interests of the country can be
safely committed only to the republic
can party-the only party which
stands for the protection of American
Industries and American wage-earners.

SLAV AND GERMAN.

Two of the greatest European peo-
pies confront each other in Southeast
ern Europe, where they and others be-
hind them banded together for so many
centuries to keep out the hordes Of
Asia. Unless race feeling has become
weaker than commercial greed, there
is more lawful cause of war there than
between Germany and England in the
North sea-
Talk of war between Austria and
Servia sounds like a joke. Austria is
an organized military nation and one
of the five great powers of Europe.
Though made up of discordant ell
ements, it is wisely ruled by emperors
and prudently governed by parliaments.
If any of these discordant elements
sympathize with Servia, it is the small
est of all.
Servia is a little kingdom whose an
cient glories ended with the exile of it's
mobiles to Montenegro and the slavery
of the people to the Turks, whose mod
ern revival, by the policy of the pow
ers rather than its own vigor, has been
stained with royal debauchery and roy
al assassination. 1t is neither strongly
ruled nor wisely governed, nor Efficient
ly armeds The ignorant populace may
clamor for war like that of Greece, but
Austria would eat up Servia quicker
than Turkey ate up Greece. Bulgaria
put it to rout when it was stronger
than now
Yet Servia stands for the Slavonic
peoples that have been slowly coming
to their own. Her cause is the cause of
all the Danubian and Balkan states.
The independent prince Ferdinand
talls himself car of all the Bulgarias
and takes precedence next to Car
Nicholas in st. Petersburg. If all these
are not much, behind them swarm all
the Slavic millions of Russia
Austria stands for the opposing Ger
man principle, though the German part
of Austria is hardly greater than Ser
via itself. But the Austrian house
rules millions of non Slavic races, and
behind Austria stands the irresistible
power of the German empire. Observe
that the only sign of war is the refu-
sal of Germany to join Russia, France
and England in advising Austria to
make peace.

PICKPOCKETS CAN
EVADE PUNISHMENT
Chicago Judge Declares That This
Class of Criminals Is Practically
Immune.

CHICAGO, March 5-"Pickpockets
are virtually immune from the law,
They can prey on society at their
pleasure and in few cases can they be
punished"
This is the assertion Of Judge Frank
Grove, of the municipal court, who for
several years as assistant states at
torney and later as police court Judge,
probably came in contact with more
crooks than any other judge in Chi
cago.
In application of the statement by
Captain O'Brien, head of the detective
bureau, to the effect that not per cent
of the pickpockets arrested in Chicago
are ever convicted, Judge Grove de-
clares it is not the fault of the police
or of the courts, but of circumstances
over which neither has control.
"Pickpockets are the shrewdest class
of criminals he says. 'They seldom.
if ever, pick the pocket Of a Chica-
ogan. They always try to rob the man
from out of town. They know that in
doing this they are perfectly safe from
prosecution.
"The crooks lawyers continue the
case from time to time. After a while
it goes over to the criminal court. Here
again it is continued. The complain
ing witness, nine times out of ten. lives
out Of town. The long delays DISCUS,
MIN with legal procedure and he de-
cides to drop the case.

drive the pickpocket out of the citv-
and that would be unlawful

Acting Governor Hay has announced

ster for the newly created judgeship

ate committee last night decided to
draw bill of it's own, disregarding
the report of the other committee.
A new bill by the senate committee
approves the budget for state offices
with hardly any change, but increases
the appropriation for the state COL
lege and the university, giving each
within 100000 of the amount orig
1nally asked for. The house commit
tee, if not satisfied, will draw a sep
arate bill which may make a confer
ence necessary and delay the passing
of the appropriations bill until the
last day of. the session.

WASHINGTON, March 5.-While
Japanese War at Sacramento, as 1t
was called here, failed to secure the
exclusion of Asiatics it served to pre-
vent a decrease of appropriations for
coast defenses. Although no new
coast legislation Of note was passed
at the session diplomatic circles to-
day regard the agitation as the best
thing that could have happened to
the entire coast. Not only did the
increase of the coast armament re-
suit from the agitation, but full ap-
propriations were made by congress
for Hawaii and the Philippines, while
estimates for other parts of the coun-
try suffered.
The war scare attracted increasing
attention to the Pacific coast and will
probably result soon in an exclusion
law and better regulation of immi-
grafton.

CALIFORNIA FARMERS

Are Affiliated With American Fedora
ton Of Labor and Are
Very Active.

The farmers unions Of California
have taken step just a little in ad-
vance of organizations m this state and
Oregon, although in no other section OF
of the country has there been more ac-
tive organization of the farmers into
unions than in the Inland Empire The
California unions have become affiliat-
ed with the American Federation of
Labor, and although efforts have been
made in this state, nothing has been
accomplished up to the present time.
Not only have the California organ
izations become affiliated with the
American federation, but they have
taken steps to devise a label to be
placed on the union farmers products,
as the following report from that state
will show:
E. F. Eide, A. Sorenson and Thomas
c Seward, representatives of the
Farmers union Of Fresno, Cal, an or
ganization affiliated with the Fresno
Federated Labor council, have arrived
and will hold conference with Sec
retarys Geo. w. Bell of the California
State Federation of Labor for the pur-
pose of formulating a plan for a fed
Grafton of farmers and unionists
throughout the state. The Fresno Or
ganization will ask assistance of the
State Federation Of Labor in forming
a state organization Of farmers which
will pledge itself to cooperation with
the unionists of other cities and towns
throughout the state
1t is proposed 70 devise a state farm
erS' label to be printed on all crates
containing the products of the union
farmers which will be given preference
by the unionsts of the cities. The
establishment of central bodies under
the control of the labor unions for the
distribution of the product of union
farms is also advocated

With the Commercial club planning
to expend thousands of dollars to
bring outsiders into Walla Walla, to
show what a wonderful place this
city is, to give it publicity in the true
sense of the word, it would be the
height of foolishness to attempt to
prosecute the plans unless the city is

and stay together. Less than nothing
can be accomplished with the city split

ness men of the city to see that it is

There is a lesson to be learned from
the action of the two little cities
across the state line. For years they
have been "scrapping" between them
selves; and as a result the Milton
Freewater country, which raises the
finest fruit, was known but little. They
have seen the folly of their past actions
and are now pulling together for a
country, not for their own selfish inter-
ests; but for their united benefit
which, after all, is really for theil
best individual advantage.
Walla WalIa has no serious split ir
her interests. There is no reason why
she should be divided. Everything fol
the advantage of one part of the city
is for the advantage. just as much, fol
the others And there is no use to pull
if all do not pull together. With the
settling of the building site the last
obstacle in the way of this getting to-
gether is removed. For Walla Walla
first. last and all the time, should
henceforth be the slogan of every cit.
izen who lays any claim to loyalty.
