CITIZENS TO JOIN LABOR
Congressman Hanna Receives Letter
Stating That Former President
Will Come to Fargo on
That Occasion.

Fargo, N. D., July 7.-Congressman
Hanna has received the following letter
from ex-President Roosevelt:
Office of Theodore Roosevelt, The
Outlook, New York. July 2, 1910.-Hon.
L. B. Hanna Fargo N. D.-My Dear
Congressman: have received many
requests to speak in North Dakota.
Unfortunately l can only speak at all
by arranging my dates and places so
they will fit in with one another.
Now I think I can speak at Fargo,
Labor Day. Sept. 5. Would you m
suit your friends and whoever else you
way choose and find out if they would
like to have me do so? Faithfully
yours, Theodore Roosevelt.
Congressman Hanna at once wired
back the following:
Labor day date most satisfactory.
Every arrangement will be made and
our people are delighted over the pros
pect of having YOU with us. We will
give o a warm western welcome and
will send in a few days all the details
just as soon as we can consult with the
labor leaders all over the state, the
commercial clubs and other prominent
men. l.. B. Hanna"
The above correspondence insures
Fargo the biggest day in her history.
Labor day. Sept. 5. The letter from
Mr.. Roosevelt to Mr.. Hanna was re-
ceived his morning and the telegram
as given above was sent out at once.
1t is known that it was theex- presi-
dents desire to pay a visit to what he
is pleased to call his home state"
and that his welcome here will be a
warn and hearty one goes without
saying.
Congressman Hanna will at once be-
gin the task which will be a most
pleasant one to him of consulting with
the labor leaders, not only of Fargo,
but of all over the state as to the
coming visitation. 1t is his idea to
make the coming of Col. Roosevelt a
state affair.
The labor leaders of the city are de-
lighted d promise to do their best to
make it the biggest day the city ever
saw.
The Fargo Commercial club held a
session this afternoon and joined with
Mr.. Hanna in extending the warmest
kind of an invitation. 1t is known that
it has been Mr.. Roosevelt's intention
since coming home from Africa to pay
a visit to the different states of the
Union and he said at the home coming
reception that he would not consider
he was home" until he had visited

Prince Weds Despite Mother.

London, July 6.-Miss Dorothy Dea-
con, daughter Of the late Edward
Parker Deacon and Prince Antoine
Albert Radziwill were married today in
St. Mary's church, Cadogan square.
The ceremony was a quiet one. without
bridesmaids. and only a few relatives
and near friends attended. Lord Grey
de Ruthyd gave away the bride. Prince
Radizill married against the de-
termined opposition of his mother, who
is supposed to be in Austria to attend
the wedding of a younger son.. This
London ceremony was postponed a few
days ago because necessary docu-
ments wanted by English law had not
arrived and it was then reported in
society that the objections Of the
princes mother had prevailed.

Des Laos Wiped Out.

Minot, n. D., July Fire starting
in a restaurant destroyed practically
the entire business section Of Des Laos
on the Great Northern.
The fire, which started early this
morning, spread rapidly and before the
flames could be checked, because Of
lack Of material on which to feed,
nineteen stores were burned to the
ground.
The loss is not fully estimated, but
1t is believed it will reach $780, 600
easily.
The heaviest losers are: The Rogers
Lumber Co., ST. Anthony Lumber Co..
Farmers Elevator, Farmers State bank
and the big hardware store over which
was located the Odd Fellows hall. The
postoffce and one grocery store are
about all that are saved from the ruins
IN the business section.

MANY VACANCIES OCCUR
IN UNITED STATES SUPREME
COURT MEMBERSHIP.
President Taft May Appoint Governor
Hughes to the Position Of Chief
Justice.

Beverly, Mass, July 6.-While the
president declines definitely to commit
himself in any way, it is regarded here
tonight as practically certain that
Governor Hughes of New York will be
the next chief justice Of the supreme
court.
No appointment of a successor to
Chief Justice Fuller vii; Se made until
congress meets ext December. BY
that time it is believed, the president
will have to appoint also a successor
to Justice Moody, in whose behalf the
retirement bill was passed at the ses-
sion Of congress just closed.
In the selection of an associate JUS
tice to succeed Justice Fuller, Presi-
dent Taft will take plenty of time for
de~liberation. 1t is believed that the
president will be informed as to JUS
tice Moody's intention as to retirement
within the next month or two, so the
chief executive is practically casting
about for two men.
The probable retirement Of Justice
Moody will make the fourth vacancy
in less than two years. 1t is not I'M
likely that before his term Of four
years has expired President Taft will
nave been called upon to appoint six
out Of the nine justices forming the
supreme tribunal. President Taft told
some Of his friends recently that he
was anxious above almost anything
else that his administration might be
known for the character of his APP
pointments to the federal bench.
1t can be positively stated that the
president is entirely open minded as to
the supreme court vacancies. One of
the most likely candidates spoken Of
here today is Justice Swayzee Of the
New Jersey supreme court. He has
been strongly recommended to the
president and is aid to have had an
excellent chance for appointment to
succeed the late Justice Peckham.
should Governor Hughes have declined.
President Taft, it is said, is anxious
to ecure men for the supreme court
between 40 and so years OF e The
appointment of Justice Lurton was an
exception, and it is not believed he
would again select a man of that age.
For this reason there is but little talk
of Senator Root of New York and Sec
rotary of War Dickinson. who were
prominently regarded as supreme court
possibilities.

To Prevent Gnawing of Fruit
Trees.

A query comes to me in this form:
"Do you know of any paint to be ap-
plied to the bodies of fruit trees to
prevent the rabbits from gnawing
them?" This inquiry was so urgent
| was requested to answer by mail and
did so. Others may desire the same
information, hence, the matter is
taken up here. In many localities
rabbits do much damage to young
orchards. Usually the injury is done
in the winter time when the snow is
on the ground. But sometimes thcy
attack young trees in the summer.
Some sixteen years ago we suffered
quite little from their attacks in
July and August These attacks came
from Jack rabbits. They went into
our newly set orchards and would lie
in the shade of the young trees in the
day time and perhaps because they
were hungry they gnawed two or three
hundred of our trees before we noticed
their attacks. We went to a slaughter
house and procured some llvers and
rubbed the bodies of the trees up to
the first limbs. This stopped the
work at once. They soon show ed up
The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1910-10-01
ED BY T. WALDEN.

in other parts of the orchard and as
the supply of livers was limited, we
procured some rancid fish oil and sent
a boy over the whole orchard and had
him swab the bodies OF all our young
trees. That etfectually stopped the
rabbits in their ravages.
Long before this attack by the
rabbits, [ had learned that rabbits
are very nice about what they eat.
A rabbit, deer and sheep are each
of them a very clean animal. Their
meat ought to be pure and nearly al
ways is. 1t was this knowledge of the
cleanliness of the rabbit that suggest
ed to me the idea of smearing the
bodies of my young trees with some
kind of grease. Any kind of filth will
protect trees against rabbits. Paint
would no doubt be a protection but
might damage the trees, whereas
grease, blood or any ordinary filth
will not do SO.
Sometimes mice do much damage to
apple trees in the winter when there
is deep snow on the ground. They
are apt to be bad where there is much
rubbish like various kinds of weeds
scattered over the orchard. The mice
work under the snow and sometimes
do much damage to young trees. One
remedy for this kind of damage is to
90 over the orchard soon after the
snow falls and tramp it down close
around the trees. The best thing to
do in case of attacks by mice is to
mix a pound OF pulverized arsenic
with half bushel of corn meal, or in
that proportion, if but little is need
ed, and then put this poisoned meal
into little papers folded as doctor
does his powders and place these
packages about the orchard wherever
there is rubbish. The mice will eat
this poisoned meal and it will kill
them effectively. l have tried this
and know it to be effective.

MANY INTERESTED IN FRUIT
GROWING

1t is common thing to me to have
the telephone ring and find some man
down in the city at the other end who
wants to talk about fruit growing.
take pleasure in responding to such
calls by having the man come to my
home on Queen Anne Hill or by
meeting him down in the city. Never
a week goes by but have from one
to half dozen of these calls. Ii l can
in any way without too much sacrifice
of time and energy, help my fellow
man to better his condition in life l
feel that have not lived wholly in
vain. AS a rule the first question is
"What kind of soil is best suited to
fruit growing? The idea is abroad
that what makes the difference in the
grades of apples for instance, is some
thing that is in the soil. Very rarely
is such the case. The fact is any soil
that will grow good corn, oats, barley,
wheat and vegetables will grow good
fruit trees. There is something
neededsin growing the highest grade
of fruits besides good soil where trees
