handicapped. Both wanted to over
come the faulty speech. They hit
upon a plan. They set to work.
Immediately the report spread that
a certain church was haunted that
ghosts stalked through 1t during the
night. And the ghosts were real and
live, and could talk.
"TO solve the problem of decreased
church attendance. committee of
deacons decided to spend a night in
the edificc. They entered late one af-
ternoon and secreted themselves. AZ
ter nightfall they saw two forms pro-
coed to the center OF the church
They didn't look like ghosts. and soon
real voices speaking words came tc
them. But they were suffering words
and in the pair of ghosts the dea
cons discovered HartshOrn and his
friend trying to overcome the stutter-
ing handicap.

church was sOlved.'-San Francisco

TO BRING MANILA CIGARS.
PHILIPPINE Exporters Want a Humidor
Ship for Goods.

There seems to have been a per
fectly sincere though very misin-
formed impression among the people
in Manila, that the entire cigar trade
in the United States was trying to
knock the Manila product. Better
informed people in the manufacturing
end here are beginning to STE that
the only thing which knocked the
Manila cigar in the United States
was the cigar itself or rather the
condition in which it reached the
smoker.
First, when the bars were let down
and the initial shipments were I'M
loaded at New York and San Francis
co. these consisted largely OF old
stocks which had been gathered from
the unsold discards OF practically
| every factory not inviting smokers
| even when put aboard the big ocean
| freight,rs.

and brine. the Odor Of sea water

application of the free entry clauses

would ever have recognized them as
forming part of the cigars so pOpu-
| lar at home.
Efforts made by American import
Crs to recondition such shipments
| have not been successful for reasons
which will be understood by any cigar
| leaf handler and particularly by those
| Convcrsant with the very peculiarly
sensitive character of the Philippine
| leaf. This tobacco is highly Odorous
and is naturally of a sweet. smooth
taste. but when subject to resweating
it develops acidity. thus making the
product unpalatable.
| Now those who have the welfare of
the Manila cigar industry at heart
are figuring upon the possibility of
protecting cigar cases en- route. And
here comes the great suggestion. IT
is on the cards that an attempt viii

Steamship company to place on the
Manila route a humidor ship which
will bring over cigars in good condi-

Naturalization
Laws Enforced
Clerk Of District Court Apprised o
Rigid Enforcement Of Natural
ization Laws

The clerk of the district court
81 G.. Hanson has been apprised
by the naturalization bureau Of the
department of commerce and labor
at Washington that the new natur'
alization laws will hereafter be en-.
forced. This will mean that hence.
forth no aliens will be naturalized
without having first presented tc
the department a full certificate o1
landing in this country.
The sum and substance Of this
law, which was passed in 1906, but
which had never been previously
enforced, is that aliens who arriv-
ed in the United State subsequent
to June 20, 1906, are henceforth
required to procure a certificate Of
landing, from the bureau of natur.
alization, which in turn is to be
filed with the clerk of the district
court before the clerk can take d
petition for naturalization.
It is necessary that all aliens
intending to become American
citizens, should apply in. proper
person to the clerk for such certifi.
Gates, but could write him for
blank forms upon Which to apply
to the clerk for these certificates
and will be then furnished
This shows q tendency to put
the naturalization bureau on q
sounder basis and appears to show
a disposition Of the government to
somewhat stem the tide Of Euro
pean immigration to this country.
60 many elements of (which are OBJ
jectionable and are rapidly clutter
ing up the bigger cities OF the east
Henceforth rigid precaution will
be exercised.
There have been about twenty.
five who received their first papers
this week and many more have
stated that they will take theirs
out. The first papers are being
taken out now so that REGISTRATION
can be made on land on the Berth.
old reservation.
Clerk Of Court Hanson says that
all applications for citizenship pa
pers have to be published 80 days
before the regular term of court
and that no one making applica.
ton after August 7th can get
their citizenship papers until the
June term Of court. At the last
session of tho legislature the time
for holding court in this county
was changed from December 13 to
November 8 making it necessary
to also change the date for receiv-
ing applications for citizenship
papers.

Harvesting Flax
That Is Good Seed
Prof. h. L. BolleY Of the A. {. Gives
Some Valuable Pointers to the
Farmers Of the State

Farmers Of the State
Prof. II. L. Bolley, botanist at
the A. c., has the following re-
garding the harvesting of seed fax:
The fax crop of the northwest,
because ofdrought, passed through
a crucial period last year. There
was a time when it seemed that
there would not be enough good
(seed to SOW even half the normal
area of land in this state and other
fax growing areas of the north
west.
Many farmers have, however,
sacrificed much and hazarded
much in order to again give this
crop chance to make stand on
their farm. In the new land dis
tricts, where seed was scarce,
many large areas have been seeded
with poor lightweight wilt and
canker infested seed. Such fields
if not an actual disappointment to
the grower, this year, will inform
him of his sins against the soil in
the next few crops Of flax. Great
care should be taken to properly
save the seed; and as all flax seed
fit for oil purposes will bring a
good price, the best effort should
be made to properly save it all.
Now is the time to select the seed
for next years crop.
l. Pick out your most healthy
dark green colored area of fax on
your land or in your neighbor's
field and remember this when you
cut the crop.
q. Have the mustard, false fax
and other weeds pulled out Of your
seed plot-now.
8. Let the fax get fully matured.
4. Cut, if possible, with a bind
er, shock, and thresh as soon as
dry, or stack it dry and cover with
canvas cap or slough hay cap.
If the ground is rough and the
fax straw is too short to cut with
o binder, use a ''aax attachment" "
and run the sickle bar as close to
the ground as possible. Many
farmers lose abont one-third of
of the fax which they grow, be.
cause they do not make smooth
enough seed-bed to allow the reap.
er to work smoothly below all the
heads. If this hits your case, do
not blame the fax crop as a non.
productive one, but do better for
it next spring. If you cut it and
drop it in loose punches, do not
let these get wet, if you can help
it, because it soon gets mouldy and
this ruins the seed for sowing pur.
poses, besides, when the balls be-
gin to dry, after being wet, much
fax will be lost through shelling.
Il you cannot thresh at once,
when dry, place in large cocks or
small stacks aud cover with caps
made of hay or use the regular
canvas cap or stack covers. Be
sure to have the STRAW dry when
placed in the cocks.
S. Store the seed dry and keep
it dry.
Grow your own seed. No mat
ter. how small amount Of seed
ripened on your land save some
Of it. It is better seed for your
land than that grown somewhere
else. This is the only way Of get
ting the best wilt resistant seed.
If you have some aax-siok land
try it. Save the seed from such
land, grade out the light weight
seeds and BOW it back on your sick
ground and each year it will be-
come more and more resistant un-
til eventually yen have gained q
type Of fax that is practically .
disease resistant stock on your
land:
