LITTLE PROGRESS
IN MCNAMARA TRIAL

fill two vacant seats today. Darrow
told the court that he would prob
ably further interrogate Robert Balm,
the G. A. r. veteran, but ito all in
tents he accepted him subject to
peremptory challenge by taking up the
examination of H. G. Quackenbush, a
retired expressman who proved re-
ticent and a difficult venireman to
question. Quackenbush insisted pos
itively that he had not any real OPP
inion as to the guilt or innocence of
Mcnamara.
Quackenbush was passed for cause,
making the third possible juror in
the case. At noon recess was taken.
No material progress was made
despite the selection of the three
jurors. The defense tried hard to dis
qualify Quackenbush and passed him
only when he said that he wouldn't
convict a man on circumstantial evil
dence alone and that he is opposed to
capital punishment.

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 17-Determin-
ed if possible to qualify several adj
ditional veniremen today, the defense
in the Mcnamara trial was led by
barrow, who personally examined the
veniremen for awhile. 1t is consider
ed likely that John Roberts who pass
ed by the defense subject to the
peremptory challenge will remain
throughout the trial, probably as
foreman. He is unbiased and is an
intelligent business man.
The defense is we'll satisfied with
the elimination of venireman Nelson,
who was dismissed by Judge Bordwell.
The defense is already putting out
lines indicating that the gas explosion
theory will be one of the defenses
which they will use, and which if
proved will kill the prosecution of the
case.

THE GATE WHEN CLOSED.
1t may be filed with gravel, etc., until
the gate is slightly the heavier and so
that slight pull will cause 1t to fold
back in place.
1t may be necessary where unruly
stock is kept to set two posts for the
gate to shut between, in order to keep
them from pushing through. The post
for the weight may be bolted to two
ordinary fenceposts, or they may be
full length, but In either case they
should be set well into the ground.
The grooved wheel over which the
rope works may be secured from al
most any pile Of old scrap iron, or, II
one cannot be found, make it Of wood
by saving three wheels and having
one slightly smaller than the others.
Nail them together, with the small
wheel in the center. This forms
f1ange that will hold the rope in place.

To keep up the fertility Of the soil 1t
Is imperative that the orchards be lib
orally fortified. Both mineral and
vegetable fertilization is necessary. A
crop Of apples will remove considera-

quires large quantities Of both vegeta-
BILE and mineral matters. Unleached
wood ashes are excellent.
Horses that are idle in the winter
should not be fed much feed that is
rich In nitrogen-as. for instance, clover
hay. If horse does not receive regu-
lar exercise he cannot assimilate such
feeds. and consequently the system be-
comes clogged and the disease known
as azoturia takes place. Horses to
keep in good condition should hava
daily work or exercise.

A RISING AND FOLDING GATE.

Easily Constructed, inexpensive and
Operated by Balance Weight.
A gate that will rise or fold has its
advantages. One may be constructed
without much expense.
The gate should be braced both ways
and made of good, clear lumber. The
balance weight may be hung with
wire rope or a one-half inch cotton
rope. However, If cotton. hemp or
sisal is used the rope should have
close attention, that 1t does not In
some manner become worn or cut. The
weight may be made in several ways,
the best and least expensive perhaps
being a slim galvanized iron bucket.
