DON'T TRY PRESSURE

You cannot by process OF law pre-
vent anyone from drugging them-
selves to death. We must meet the
evil by an appeal 70 the intelligence.
One OF the drugs that does tho
most harm 10 Americans, because
of its widespread use and apparent
innocence, is coffee.
Ask any regular coffee drinker II
he or she is perfectly well. At
least onc-half are not.
Only those with extra vigor can
keep well against the daily attack
Of caffeine Gin the coffee.) The
heart and pulse gradually lose
strength; dyspepsia, kidney trou-
bles and nervous diseases OF some
sort set IN and the clearly marked
effects of coffee poisoning are
shown.
These are facts and worth any,
ones thought. The reasonable and
sensible thing is 20 leave it on
and shift 70 Postum. The poison
that has been secretly killing is
thus withdrawn and a powerful re-
building agent put to work.
The good effects generally begin
TO show inside Of 10 days. II health

years old, can often be cut off with a
sharp knife to inches from the
ground or just below the girdle and
will throw out strong sprouts. By
driving stakes around these trees, or
otherwise protecting, and giving high
culture, buds will come during the
growing season. You may have sew
eral twigs 3 to feet, even feet high.
1t is better to pinch back the undesira-
BILE twigs and give the best sprout the
lead. In the next springs pruning
all can be cut off but one sprout. This
might even work on trees three to four
years of age, but there would be more
loss than on one to two year old trees.
Trees three to four years or older
can be saved by bridge grating. This
consists of cutting scions or twigs of
any desirable variety, usually whips a
foot or more in length, and keeping
them in cool place until growth has
begun in the spring. Then use these
for bridge grating. AS soon as the
bark will slip, or even before it will
slip easily, cut cross slit or both
vertical and cross slit in the bark near
the edge of the wound, one above and
one below the space stripped of bark.
Then having cut the scions slightly
longer than this space, slip the ends
into the Sits and wax thoroughly and
tie. 1t is desirable to use, on six-fnch
tree, six scions for bridging over the
injured spot.
You will get some idea of grating
from Farmers Bulletin No. 113, copy
of which I take pleasure in sending
you under separate cover, but most of
this grating is of different kinds. The
scions should be cut like "a in 2 on
page 10.

TREES MAY BE SAVED
HOW TO HANDLE FRUIT TREES IN
JURED BY THE RABBITS.
VI. B. Waite, PatholOgist, Gives Expert
Advice on the Best Manner to
Save Fruit Trees.

Damage to fruit trees by the rabbits
seems to be general all over the south
ern part of Idaho. For the benefit of
those who have had trees damaged by
these pests, and there are in this sec
ton many who have sustained much
damage during the past winter, we re-
print the following article from the
Rupert Record:
1t would be hard to estimate the
damage done to young fruit trees on
this tract by jackrabbits during the
past winter. Fifteen hundred apple
trees belonging to Mr.. Benson, near
Acequia, were completely barked by
the pests, and this is no exceptional
case. Many settlers supposed that rab-
bit fences would keep out the rabbits,
but the snow has drifted so deep that
they were able to walk right over the
fences on the drifts.
Settlers who have suffered damage
in this way have been seeking infor-
nation as to what could be done to
save the trees after they had been
barked by the rabbits. o. F. Smith,
the Blackfoot nurseryman, who was in
Rupert last week, gave some valuable
advice on this subject. He states that
if the young trees are cut off close to
the ground, they are almost certain to
sprout up. In some cases there will
be two or three sprouts. All of these
should be permitted to grow until it is
seen which is the most vigorous, and
the others should then be cut out. AS
these young shoots have exceptionally
strong roots, they will grow very
rapidly and in five years the tree will
be as far advanced as though it had
never been cut back.
Washington Experts Advice.
In line with Mr.. Smiths advice, W.
H. Herman has received a letter from
the bureau of plant industry at Wash
ngton on the same subject, which |
reads as follows:
Dear Sir: Your letter of February |
), addressed to the honorable secre-
AIRY of agriculture, about young apple |
rees which have been girdled by rab-
,its, has been referred to this office.

Ghe Cotton Market.

Yorkville, January 1S.-Good mid
ding cotton 143 cents.
New York Cotton.
New York, Jan. 17.-Cotton spot
closed quiet, 35 points lower; middling
uplands 1920; middling gulf 14.45;
sales 600 bales. Futures opened bare
ly steady and closed steady as follows:
Jan. 14.O7; Feb. 14.00; March 14.10;
April 14.10; May 1923; June 1920; July
1923; Aug. 400; Sept. 1900; Oct.
1856; Dec. 1856.
New York, Jan. 17.-Although the
cotton market was less active than last
week there was continued excitement
and prices had a violent break dur
ing the afternoon. A recovery Of
about 81 per bale occurred in the last
few minutes, but while the closing
tone was steady, last prices were 80
to 46 points net lower on the old and
from IA to 80 points lower on new
crop positions. The market opened
barely steady at an advance of
points on September, but generally
unchanged to 81 points lower, and the
active months sold to 13 points low
er during the first few minutes under
commission house liquidation and
bear pressure. Liverpool cables, how
ever, made a steady showing, there
was some demand from spot people,
over-Sunday news from the south
claimed a generally firm interior spot
situation, and Liverpool houses were
good buyers here to cover straddles.
Prices consequently sold up to about
or shade over the closing prices of
Saturday, during the middle of the
morning, but after the close of Liv-
erpool and the withdrawal of arbi-
TRACE business the market again be-
came very unsettled. Possibly ap-
prehensions that southern banks
might call loans on spot cotton in
the interior and thus cause weakness
had a sentimental influence, although
nothing of the sort was reflected in
the news, and it may be that an unset
tied stock market caused some Wall
Street selling. At any rate a renewal
of bear pressure drove the market
into stop loss orders and for a time
tumbled almost as rapidly as they
had done last week. Before the decline
was checked March sold at 1899, May
at 1901. and July at 1903 or "a to 81
points below the closing figures of
Saturday At this level the market
received support from the strong in
tereStS whose purchases below the
IA cent level helped to check the
panic OF Friday and there was
rally of 20 points or more during the
last ten minutes. Southern spot mar
kets officially reported early were
nominally unchanged to 1-2c higher.
