the work. But perhaps the average
farmer has not considered the COM
mercial value Of his trees.
The writer spent some time at q
small hotel In q village In southeastern
Missouri a few years ago and was de-
lighted with the big open fireplace in
the hotel Office. Roaring fires were
built therein, and it was good to sit
In front or at the side and watch the
flames suck upward. Only wood was
burned-no coal-and that made the
real delight of the open fire.
One day the writer saw the hotel
man bring in several huge log cuts
and dump them by the fireplace. The
landlord put on log now and then
and achieved fine fire. The burning
logs threw OF faint. peculiar scent
which seemed familiar-a memory OF
boyhood. Investigation discovered
that the log cuts were Of splendid.
perfect walnut-one Of the scarcest
woods nowadays. Any big walnut
tree Is worth many dollars more for
cabinet work than for fuel, as It
would seem almost anybody should
know by this time That man burned
up about 5000 worth Of walnut.
1t is well always to bear in mind
that the fine big tree you are cutting
down and cutting up for fuel or fence
rails possibly might bring you as
much as a load Of wheat or corn il
you would haul it to the nearest mar
ket.

EXPERT POTATO CULTURE,

who says:
The improved planters OF today open
the furrow. drop the seed. cover 1t.
frm the dirt over the seed and mark
the next furrow. Such a planter Is
drawn by two horses. The writer
plants the potatoes about two or two
and one-half inches below the surface
of the soil. Experiments with potatoes
planted in rows all the way from thir-
ty-six to forty-two inches apart indi-
cate that the best distance depends
upon the seasonal conditions and type
of soil. 1t Is q problem for each grow
er to solve for himself. The distance
apart the potatoes should be planted
In the row also depends SO much upon
the variety, the fertility of the soil.
the availability Of water. etc. that
each farmer must determine this from
his own experience. plant them
eight inches apart in rows thirty-six
inches apart This gives the largest
tonnage OF potatoes Of desirable size.
The writer's experience has been that
seed of large size two to six ounces)
produce strong. vigorous shoots, as
they furnish an ample supply of plant
food to sustain strong and vigorous
growth until the feeder roots can take
up the food FROM the soil.
During the last two years the best
results were obtained from planting
medium sized whole seed. While the
cost Of the seed has been considerably
greater, the stand has been approx
mately perfect. Experience has prov
ed that from one or two eyes only are
sprouts developed In uncut seed. The
seed end furnishes a strong vine. The
other eyes USUALLY remain dormant.
One of the greatest advantages of
using whole seed is the protection
from disease which may be present In
the soil and which may attack the
more tender exposed parts Of the cut
seed.
As soon as possible after the pota-
toes are planted the cultivator should
be started. This implement has four
shovels, each four or five inches wide
and about fifteen inches long. two on
each side Of the row, and Is drawn by

Paints and
VarniSheS
That Wear


There is only one real way to judge the
merit of any paint. Regardless Of how
well it is advertised, regardless Of how
we'll il is recommended, regardless Of what
it costs, it is not the paint you want to use
If it will not stand the test of time.
Harrison Town
and Country Paint
Two things have made this paint what
It is. The first is that gallon for gallon,
this paint will cover more surface than
any other ready-mixed, or hand-mixed
paint ever known. The second is that this
paint will last longer; tested and tried side
by side with every other standard paint, It
has proven that it will last from two to
five years longer than the others.
This paint sells for SITS 4
gallon, and ut that price Il
represents the best paint In
vestment you can make.

No more ideal conditions could be

which prevailed this morning N
forecast OF the success of what
promises to be the best and biggest
Oregon State Fair in history, the

London, Sept. 1.-THE undertake
er and morgue keeper who cared for
the decomposed remains found in
the basement of the home of DR.. H.
H. Crippen in North London, spent
an uneasy half-hour today under the
cross examination of Arthur Newton,
who is defending Crippen in his
trial for the alleged murder of his
wife.
When the post burial inquest was
called Newton asked that the
morgue keeper and the undertaken
be summoned. His object was to
secure from them an admission that
when they removed the body from
the basement they used carbolic acid
to counteract the odors.
If carbOlic acid were sprinkled on
the remains, Newton argued, the
analysis made by a chemist tending
to show the presence of hyoscin IN
the stomach would be worthless.
Both men, according to the report,
had admitted they used carbolic
acid.
On the stand, however, they de.
clared there was no ground for such
a report.
Newton also tried to show that tho

shape this morning than they have
ever been before. Which is saying
a good deal to the credit of the mem-
bers of the state board of agricul-
ture and Secretary Frank Meredith,
who have worked hard to make the
far the success it gives every prom
Use OF being. In fact it is hard to
conceive of anything that could hap
pen to mar the complete triumph OF
the Forty-Ninth annual Oregon
State Fair, aside from a heavy
downpour of rain for the balance of
the week, which scarcely can be
imagined If the weather of the
opening day is to be taken as a cri-
terion.
This, being Opening Day, is at
tended by the hustle and hustle at
tendant upon all such occasions in
getting everything in readiness for
the big crowds that will come later
on in the week. On account Of the
Portland fair and livestock exposi-
tion many OF the exhibits in the live
stock department did not arrive
from Portland unil late last night
and this morning. but big force OF
help has been put on by the fair
management% and these are being
unloaded and housed with the great
est dispatch and precision. 80 that
all of the usual marks of hurried
preparation at all public exhibitions
will have been entirely removed by
this afternoon and the exhibits will
present the appearance of having
been waiting there since last year to
receive the crowds again, SO far as
order and cleanliness is concerned
The county exhibits, the largest
and best that have ever been as
sembled, better than any previous
state fair, are in place and practi-
cally complete this morning the
first time that this condition has pre-
vailed since the competition Of ex-

were scooped up. He declared that
this handling explained the bruised
condition of the body.
Miss May, secretary of the Music
Hall Ladies Guild, of which Mrs.
Belle Elmore-Crippen was a member,
testified that she dreamed she saw
DR.. Crippen strangling his wife.
This, she said, was about the time of
Mrs. Crippen's disappearance. Miss
May told what she knew of the wo-
mans life and of Crippen's state
ments to her previous to his flight
from London with Mile. Ethel Le-
neve, his typist.
Neither Crlppen nor Mile. Leneye
was present at the inquest.
Mrs. Paul Martinelli, whose sus-
picions led to the searching of the

was found, testified she saw Mrs.
Crippen on the evening of January

disappeared.
