FARMERS MAY PROTECT PROP
ERTY FROM DEER.

The question OF protecting growing
crops and other property from deer has
been the occasion OF wide discussion
among the farmers of Vermont, especially
in tho southern part of the State. They
have reason to thank the recent Leeisla-
ture for making 1t possible to protect
heir property from deer. The Brattle-
soro correspondent of the Springfield Re-
publican says:
THE arrival Of the supplement of the
Burlington Free Press In which the pub
lie acts of the last General Assembly were
published brought to light the fact that
act No 2Gs so completely changed the
deer laws Of the State that there is no
constitutional question for the farmers to

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE
sound Advice to Vermont Farmers
from "a California Fruit Lover.
GlS On Ali1-c I nc melee calf

10 tho Editor Of tho Free Press
It Is tho opinion Of the writer of this
letter that the farmers OF Vermont are
not aware of the fact that they have
each one OF them on his own farm
mine that will produce more yellow gold
than the mines OF California, that is tho
various farms toEether will do SO. The
trouble is the mines are not developed.
Possibly some Of YOU have already gucs-
sed that refer to the apple CROP. The
trouble with Vermont farmers is that they
pick their apples They pick them and that
r. all they do do. They don't plant them,
they don't cultivate them they don I pro-
tcct them from parasites, they don't pack
them, and lastly they don't sell them.
The apples raised In Vermont nave
flavor that cannot be equalled by any
other apples in tho world. Yet Vermont
farmers have couple dozen trees in their
lack yard which are given no attention
out to pick n few apples IN the fall,
pack them into big bulky barrels and get
what they are offered Tor them.
At the Same time orchardists Of Wash
iugton, Oregon, and California are pack
ing apples in fifty pound boxes, shipping
them three thousand miles to New York
and seven thousand miles to London and
Getting high price for them as the
farmers OF Vermont do for a barrel.
| would suggest that the farmers and
lgriculturists of the State study the most
approved methods of raising the hes.
varieties of fruit wrapping it and then
shipping II to New York and dsposing Of
it through a cooperative association
would suggest that the Maple Sugar as
sOCintlon and Dairy association rom
hine interests, make the best possible
shipping arrangements and maintain a
larger market of their own in some tav-
orabie location in New York and posi-
bly, other cities Have an annual show
for each product at a different product
and spend liberal amount In advertising
Have n Big apple show in the fall Have
the admission free, then sell every elstor
a fine apple for a cent so they can learn
for themselves the truth Of your state
meuts. Sell them or take their order tor
a box or dozen boxes at the same time
If they wish. Have the best Of all variet-
ies represented, and the different kind,
marked, induce the people TO try all kinds
and register the kinds they prefer This
VIII enable you to learn which kinds are
most salable and to SGT the price ac-
cordinely. Don't set the prices too low
At the time Of the show get out cart loads
of attractive advertising and don't let
anybody 80 anywhere in the city without
hearing that there is an apple show and
that 1t is worth going miles to see One
suggestion would be that You have some
first class cut outs in the shape of APP
pies autographed to represent different
llinds Of apples. Have them Of variou,

FLY WHEEL INJURIES
 BOY AT IROk SPRINGS

PRESCOTT. June 29.-Fred McKin- ley. the eleven-year-son Of MT. and Mrs. Charles F. Mckinley, had a naT- row escape from death Sunday even ing al the Mckinley mining carp near Iron Springs, sustaining a 4rac- ture of his left leg above the ankle and other injuries that are very pain ful, if not serious. At the time of the accident he was in charge of the pumping plant and in some way mat cannot be explained his left foot got caught in the belting. He was thrown over the fiywheel of tn engine to a height Of over twenty feet, from his contact with the belting, and how he escaped instant death is regarded as almost a miracle. An examination oi his leg shows that every bone was broken just above the aale.
 He was placed in his fathers auto immediately after the accident and brought to this city for medical at tention. Forty minutes after leaving the camp, he was on the surgeon table here. which is considered a re markable run as the distance is oysi nine mics over a very rough mountain road

 Sunday

PRESCOTT, June 29.-After sue .cessively importuning his wife to re- turn and live with him, and having his overtures meet with a fiat refusal. Juan Valacio at Weaver gulch on Sun day afternoon attempted to take the life of the woman in a eowardly and brutal manner. He entered the home of her father. Joaquin Soza, and at an opportune time, after an animated conversation that terminated in her refusing to have anything further to do with him. pulled from his coat on the inside a miners candle stick and stabbed her seven times in the body. infiicting wounds that are said to be mortal The affair is regarded as one of the most unprovoked that has ever taken place in that section, the un- fortunate woman enjoying the esteem of all. while her husband was abusive and non-supporting. Under these cir cumstances she left him some time ago and has refused to live with him, saying that to do so only would re- suit in trouble as on previous occa- sions
 Immediately after committing the fiendish deed. Valacio left the house and escaped to the mountains. having considerable time to do so before the wounded woman was discovered by friends.
 Sheriff Smith left yesterday after noon for Weaver, not receiving infor- nation of the crime until yesterday morning. The last reports were that the woman was in a critical condition and cannot live.

WRIGHT REFUSES ID
 BE 4 CANDIDATE
Tucson Lawyer Sees No Charms in Life of Ma
 tional Capital

TUCSON, June 29.-Some men are born great, some achieve greatness and others have greatness thrust upon them. is the old saying. Add to this, and others refuse to have greatness thrust upon them, putting John R.. Wright in this class. for when a lieu tenant of Hoval A. Smith enters the attorney general as a candidate for the Republican nomination for coo- gressman, the aforesaid A. c. graceful ly sidesteps, declines, and like Caesar of old. pushes from him the crown. Hc says. nay, nay, and declares that while he appreciates the honor done him in entering him in the lists, he will step aside for leonine-headed prosecutor of Cochise county, John 5. Williams.
 Attorney General John B. Wright declares that he is not, has not been and will not ven consider being a candidate for the republican nomina- tion for congress, much as he would appreciate the honor that it would be to represent Arizona as her first rep resentatiye Mir. Wright maintains that duty to self and family comes first To live in Washington is ar expensive proposition and that high cost of living is factor that is to be considered. His own individual law practice, with a home in Tucson, IS more attractive than a life in the so- cial whirl and political activities at the national capitol. and so it is the practice Of his professions that M- Wright is determined to follow. To others he will leave the strife for DO litical preferment in the nations leg islative halls. Hence he modestly re iterates his firm refusal Besides ths election of 1912 does not look like 2 republican year.
