her property and had formerly be-
longed to her husband, but asserted
that she had not touched the gun
since her husbands death, and had
not even known that it was loaded.
The utter lack of a motive seems
to be the weak point of the theory
that Mrs. Dodge committed the deed
with which she is charged. The
defendant Is by far the wealthiest
and socially the most prominent
woman in this town. There has
never been breath of suspicion
concerning her character, there ap-
pears to have been nothing in her
previous career that even family
suggested scandal or any entangle-
ment. Mrs. Dodge was not only
prominent in society, but also in
church work, and enjoyed an ex-
cellent reputation On the other
hand, Heath, the victim of the mr.
der, was hard working, sober and
Industrious workman, quiet and in
offensive, without the slightest sus-
p1cion against his moral character
OF MS honesty. He was married
and had several children. II is
true. that Heath and Mrs. Dodge
had mad some slight difference con-
corning the bill for some work
which Heath had done upon d prev
lous occasion for Mrs. >Dodge, but
the matter had been smootbad over
and Mrs. Dodge had again engaged
Heath to work for her.
At the coming trial ATTORNEY
General Bargent will be assisted by
States Attorney Hunt, while Har-
ian B. Howe of st. Johnsbury. and
several other distinguished LAWYERS
VIII be arrayed to defend Mrs.
Dodge. An interesting legal battle
= >PNSsSu oiu ~ Is Uel1GVGQ that
the state will be seriously handi-
capped by its inability to show a
sufllcient adequate motive on the
part of the defendant. Nothing def
mite is known concerning the line
upon which Mrs. Dodges LAWYERS
VIII make their fight, but it is be-
iieyed they will attempt to show
that some stranger entered the res
ldence OF Mrs. Dodge during the
morning. without the knowledge of
Mrs. Dodge. and that for some rea-
son he shot Heath. 1t is expected
That the defense will advance the
theory that the stranger, who after
ward killed Heath. may have en-
tered the house with the intent to
robbery. In support of that
theory it is pointed out that there
was small safe in the room in
which Heath was at work at the
time of his death.

When Leaving Cards

not contemplating visit of any length
and do not know the persons upon
whom the call is made, your card is
not left if they are not at home. If you
intend to stay two weeks or more, and
if the persons called upon present
themselves, one card should be left in
the hall. 8
If a special arrangement has been
made to call and thus introduce the
stranger, then cards are left as at any
other first cal.

only one card is sent up by the caller.
IF the mistress be out, this and a short
explanation of the purpose of the bust

If you are a business woman and are
paying a business call upon another
woman, it is always best to inscribe
upon your card hint of the nature Of
your call. In no case should you send
card to a mar. The servant should be
given your name and a statement OF

write both upon a slip of paper.

LONDON, Jan. 2S.-The elections
have dwarfed in interest every other
topic of the day, and so far the re-
turns have proceeded with remarkable
evenness. Campaigns in England are
much different from those in the Unit
ed States and some other countries;
speechmaking continues a feature of
the various canvasses, not only be-
fore the elections begin, but during
the entire time of voting. Owing to
the popularity of British voting meth

ing over weeks instead of a single

Today card etiquette is SO simplified
and systematlzed that any woman can
follow it without danger of serious
blunders. When once the fundamental
principles of this are mastered, the oc-
casional changes may be made by those
who wish to keep in touch with these
things. --.----
A card is never taken into draw
ing room and presented to the hostess.
1t is left by the caller on tray in the
han as she passes. If your call be made
on the first day at home" of the sea-
son. you will place in the tray one
card of your own and, if married, two
of your husbands After that, during
the season. you need not leave any
cards if calls are made on at-home
days. If any special entertainment be
given by your hostess to which your
husband is invited, two of his cards
must be left when making the return
call This rule obtains if the hostess
be a married woman.
If a woman is hostess at formal
affair and is assisted by. her unmarried
daughters, there are 10 cards left for
them, even though they have made
their bow to society. If an unmarried
woman is the hostess, then cards are as
carefully left as if she were matron.
If you are unmarried and are using
a separate calling card, it is sufficient
to put a card into the tray for your
hostess and one for the friend that is
receiving with her. This is done when
the call is the first of the season, or
when you are acknowledging any hos
pitylity by calling afterward. After this,
a young woman need not leave cards al
the days at home" of her frienus.
Remember that no woman leaves her
card for any men in a household. If

Soil TiIldqe and Moisture

Perhaps the most important factor
crop production is the proper supply
of moisture, for on this largely depends
all others. If the water is excessive
the soil is cold. termination late and
growth slow, air cannot reach the
roots the plant suffocates, grows sick
Nv and dies. If on the other hand, the
tupply of moisture is insufficient, no
amount of air, warmth or food will
avail to produce crop. Hence all TIL
lage operations should be so conducted
as to insure proper supply of moist
ure.
During the moderate or dry seasons,
such as prevail over the greater por-
tions of the state of Washington, crops
have to draw from the store below, be-
cause the evaporation from the soil
and the Transportation from the plant
greatly exceed the amount of rainfall
while the plants are growing. In such
regions where the rainfall is not high
and occurs chiefly during the winter
months. it is important to get as much
of it as possible into the soil for use
of the subsequent crop.
Breaking UP the Stubble.
All land which is to lie idle through
the winter previous to being sown to
a spring crop or to being summer-fal-
lowed should be early turned over
with the pillow, or receive a thorough
discing, and left rough through the
rainy season. On the old stubble which
has been made solid by the weather
and all the tramping during the har-
vest and subsequent pasturing, the
soil is not in a receptive condition, the
rain penetrates slowly, much is lost by
evaporation, and if the land be on any
considerable slope, the water shoots
off into the natural water courses. But
the broken surface of a plowed or well
disced field 10th binders the flow Of
water and affords it many openings
by which to sink in, at the same time
increases in pore space in this loose,
cultivated layer enables this portion to
absorb and hold more water near the
surface. We have observed in May
difference of 2.5 per cent. of water in
the top three feet of soil between land
plowed in the autumn and the adjoin-
ing land not plowed. The gain due to
blowing was 12O tons of water per acre,
or considerably more than one inch Of
rain. $40 s=t *a a-ft- .4
1a Spring Cultivation. a....-
In such climates as prevail in the
semi-arid parts of the state, where it
is necessary to retain as much of the
winters precipitation as possible, and
where spells of drying weather are
apt to come with spring or early sum-
mer, it is desirable to disc or other
wise stir up the soil that is intended
for summer fallow, Or for crop at as
early a date as it will bear cultivation.

moisture to the surface by capillarity

may be thought that the amount Of

bserved instances of evaporation
where the loss of moisture to the s,,il

four days. The following figures taken
from Hall substantiate the writer's
observations and still further empha-
size the necessity of early cultivation:

1T is seen that the plowed land
practically lost no water during
the period ending May 9Th, no rain
having fallen during that time, whereas
during the same period the land not
plowed lost 81 lbs. per square foot OF

Subsurface Packing.
Subsurface packing consists in firm
ing the furrow slice after blowing by
packing the turned under surfave firm
ly against the soil below, The pro-
cess fills any open spaces that may
have been formed in blowing and firms
the soil to such a degree that no capil

subsoil and the furrow slice, thus main
tanning moist, firm seed bed within
few inches of the surface. Another
advantage of packing is that stubble

turned under by the pillow will decay
more rapidly when covered with firm,
moist earth than when covered by loose

In some of the constituencies poll
ing is still being held, today marking
the final vote. Mr.. Asquith's recent
flatfooted declaration in favor of full
home rule has been one of the rather
unexpected developments of the cam
paign. To this he was forced, how
ever, by the necessity of holding the
Irish members to the agreement he
made with them previous to the cleo
ton. The prejudices against Ireland,
in spite of Mr.. Asquith's changed at
titude, is still strong with many lib
erals and from these he will always
encounter opposition in any plans he
may cherish for home rule
With regard to discipling in the
house of lords, Mr.. Asquith seems to
be trifle premature. He is undoubt-
eddy right in saying that the question
of the relative powers of the two
houses must be settled before all
other matters, for the impotence of
the liberal ministry, with all it's i'm
mense majority, arose from the rejec-
ton by the lords of one measure of
reform after another. In the case at
issue. even should his party make
good his promises, home rule could
never pass the lords. The great in
crease in the unionists vote, even
though the party has failed to carry
the election, indicates no popular in
dignation against the peers that can
be counted upon to support revolu-
tionary schemes.
1t is extremely doubtful if the lib
eral cause has gained anything by the
violent language of Mr. Lloyd George
the chancellor Of the exchequer. He
now suggests the settlement of an
other mooted pointed in constitution
al theory, the right of the crown to
veto which hitherto has been. fortu-
nately, merely a subject for academic
discussion. He declares that if the
house of lords rejects a bill proposed
by the commons it must then be sent
straight to the throne. doubtless ex-
pecting the king to act. as in the past.
only through his ministers. Even
King Edward VII, with all his diplo-
macy and care to observe the conven-
tons, would hardly permit without
protest the usurpatfon of all the pow
ers of government by the majority
in the house of commons.
