There seems to be a taste in apple color differing with localities or cOun- tries, just as there is a difference in preference for eggs, white or brown. in different cities. The Englishman prefers a yellow apple-the Newtown France and Germany the blood red Spitzenburg is the favorite. Such pref erences may be due to trivial and al most intangible causes, yet they con stitute an important factor in the practical marketing of apples which are shipped from this country to Flu rope.

Every hog raiser might reduce the cost of pork production materially if he would provide a field of rape of sufficient size for bis pigs to range in during the summer months. It is esti- mated that an acre devoted to rape will produce a food supply in one sea son worth from $20 to $25. It may be sOwn as soon as the ground works well and at the rate of about three pounds per acre. It should be allowed to get a good start before the pigs are turned into it.

In addition to agricultural resources which are shown in the production of 9O,000,000 bushels of wheat in 1909. the state of North Dakota is rated by those who have investigated the mat ter to contain 31, ,24O square miles of Ignite coal, a carboniferous deposit that is geologically about halfway in process of formation between peat and soft coal.

It need hardly be said that the or chards in the favored valleys of the west, which have been known to yield a net revenue of as high as $1,5OO per acre in a single season, are not also used as hog lots and calf pastures. While one hears of dual purpose cows and dual purpose hens, there is no such thing in the famous apple sec tions referred to as a dual purpose fruit ranch. It is to this fact largely that the success achieved is due.

When a home seeker has not posi- tive knowledge beforehand of the char acter of the subsOil in the new coun- try in which he plans~to locate he will do well to postpone closing any deal on a piece of land until such time as he can bore down from four to six feet and find out what lies beneath. Not infrequently have land purchases been made in winter when the ground was frozen hard and covered with snow, which on the coming of warmer weather developed into bogs or stretch es of sand and hardpan. Caution in this respect will often avert costly as well as bitter experience

The heavy snows and severe wealth CT quite prevalent throughout the northern states and keeping stock from the usual range in stalk fields and meadows are calling attention very forcibly to some method of utilizing the stalk roughage of the farm in such way as will put the handling of it beyond interruption by deep snows or sther unfavorable weather conditions The method that will do this more sat 1sfactorily than any other is the silo, the installation of which on a farm will double the feeding value of every acre of corn. As land prices advance and soil fertility becomes depleted the silo will be viewed as a necessity on every farm in the corn belt where feeding operations are carried on to an extent worth mentioning.

FORT REFUSES
n Y. REQU|s|T|0N
FOR NEWARK MAN
Frederick Lewis Not There, Ho
Holds, When Alleged Crime
Was Committed.
[speelaI 10 the newark s.sr.l

TRENTON, May H.--Baging his de-
cision on conclusions similar to thos
which guided him in refusing to gram
a requisition in the case OF the beei
trust prosecution. Governor Fort to-
day refused the application of Gov
ernor Hughes, of New York, for the
e%xtradition of Frederick Lewis, oil
Newark, 1ho was arrested in Pain
field several months ago charged Win
grand larceny in the State OF New
York.
The Governor decides that Lewis is
no a fugitive from justice, because
sufficient evidence has not been pre-
sented by the New York authorities To
show that the latter was in the State
of New York on April !. 1909, the date
that the alleged crime was commit
ted. .
In refusing to order the extrad1tion
of Lewis the Governor was guided by
an opinion given by Attorney-General
Wilson. who conducted a hearing on
the case end advised the Governor in
part as follows:
AN affdavit of the defendant has
been filed which ~recites that he was
not within the State of New York on
the first of April, 1909, and had not
been in thai jurisdiction since Septem-
Der. 1905.
There is also an affidavit made by
his wife, corroborative in character
A corroborative sffidavit is also pre-
scented. made by the grandson OF the
defendant.
from this review of the testimony,
it would seem to me that IT had not
been reasonably established that tre
defendant was, in fact, WITHIN tne
jurisdiction of the demanding state on
the controlling day. This fact must Dc
established to the satisfaction OF a
reasonable mind. The failure OF the
proof upon this jurisdictional fact, IN
my opinion, should prompt your excel
lency to deny the application OF the
demanding State"

Judge Herr Declares Hospital
Should Have Taken Prisoner.

When he was arraigned in the
Fourth Precinct Court today John &.
Allen, Al years old, a carpenter, who
had spent the night in a cell after his
arrest Yesterday, was unable to give
Judge Herr his name.
1t was apparent to the magistrate
that the prisoner was temporarily de-
ranged. and he ordered Aliens imme-
Giate removal to the City Hospital.
Judge Herr said the case strikinsly
illustrated the need Of the new depart
ment at the City Hospital advocated
by Judge Hahn where men suffering
from mental alteration might be sent
ard receive medical attention rather
than he forced to spend the night in a
cell as IL often now the case.
