To put low priced basket on the
market with raw willow at its present
price the wages must be cut lower
than the normal standard in America.
For this reason the trade is almost
entirely in the hands of immigrant
basket makers, who know no other
trade and who are seldom or never
reinforced by native workmen.
The remedy lies in a reduction in
the cost of the raw material. The
cheaper the willow (when good In
quality the better the wages which
can be paid to produce low priced
basket. and a low priced basket Of
good quality Will find an almost un-
limited market. On this point the en-
tire trade agrees.
Great care should be taken in the
selection of the willow bed. Rich,
permanently moist sandy loan gives
best returns. though ordinary moist,
sandy land often yields profitable
crops of willow
Poor soils produce paying crops
where there is market for short rods.
Avoid land on which water is stagnant
during the summer. lf by drainage
the water level on land can be
lowered at least six feet below the
surface, the situation may be consid-
cred appropriate.
Do not plant willows in localities
where early frosts occur. The tender
shoots are easily injured by the
cold.
Plow 10 or ~ inches deep in the
fall. prior to planting the following
spring. This turns the top layer Of
the soil so deep that weed seeds can
not spring up.
Returns depend very largely upon
the method of culture. but more upon
the variety of willow planted, because
the shoots of even the best varieties
and in the most suitable soil grow
brittle after the stools become old.

SUCCESSOR TO STOLYPiN

The czar of Russia could never
have appointed a better man 10 the
place than when he made Waldemar
Kokovtzoff his premier. Kokovtzof
had been acting in that capacity ever
since Stolypin was assassinated by
Dmitry BogrofY. SO 1t was not any
thing unusual for the Russian EN-
peror to appoint NJ. KokovtzofI as the
murdered mans successor.
M Kokovtzoff has travelled exten-
siyely In this latter connection he
met many leading statesmen and men
of finance. which gave him broader
knowledge Of affairs outside OF Rus
sia than Stolypin ever enjoyed Ko-
kovtzoff was also present at the as.
sassination of the Japanese Prince
Ito at Harbin. Manchuria.
No Russian statesman has stood
higher in the public eye than Kokov-

court circles and in the society of st
Petersburg. He is more soclable than
