CASE HAS BEARING ON
EMPLOYERS LIABILITY

Bristol, Nov. 4. AFTER hearing argu-
ments of the motion to set the verdict
aside and grant new trial in the case
of w. N. Showalter, administrator, vs..
the Carolina, Clinchfield and Ohio
Railway Company, Special Judge Ed
ward X. Bachman denied the motion,
but held that the judgment of SIS, 900
for the death of Robert X. Showalter,
who was killed in wreck on the
company's road, was excessive, and he
therefore required the jury to reduce the
amount of its finding from $4,000 to
$4,000. The case will be carried to the
higher courts by counsel for the rail-
way company, and as a suit brought
under the new employers liability act,
it may eventually be carried to the su-
preme court Of the United State.

PLANTING
TREES WITH
DYNAMITE
MODERN WAY
BENEFICIAL
MODERN WAY
FEW LOSSES IN FIRST YEAR
Trees Planted With Dynamite Bear
TwoYears Earlier Than Those
Planted by Sod Method.

Results secured by prominent or
chardists indicate that the planting
and cultivation of fruit trees is being
revolutionized.
Although the attention of farmers
has but recently been directed in gen.
era! to the use of dynamite for various
agricultural purposes, experiments
have been going on for many years to
determine its exact efficiency and how
it can best be used.
AS is usually the case with original
innovations, the first horticuliurists to
try out this new aid to scientific farm
ing have been those noted for their
leadership in their respective fields OF
work.
deal not with theories but with facts
with results which prove conclusively
that dynamite has advantages in fruit
culture, but just how great these adj
vantages are can not be stated until
further experiments have demonstrat-
ed the most economical methods Of u.s.
ing dynamite in the orchard.
1t is obvious that several years are
required after the planting of fruit
tree in dynamite hole, to ascertain
just how its life or growth differs from
one planted in a spaded hole, and fur
ther experimentation will be necessary
to show whether it is necessary or ad-
visable to use more or less dynamite
per hole to get maximum results, cost
considered
The following results already deter
mined should be of interest to progress
sive horticulturists everywhere:
l. Planting trees with dynamite
pract cally eliminates the loss of young
trees during the first year.
2. Trees can be planted much more
rapidly by the dynamite method than
by the old method.
3. Trees planted with dynamite come
into bearing from one to two years
sooner than those planted by the soil
method.
4. Trees planted by dynamite grow
much more rapidly and yield much
more heavily than those planted in the
old way.
One of the chief elements of loss in
orchard work is the loss of trees the
first year. s. III. Bollinger, president
Clear Creek Lumber Co., Shreveport,
La, stated that he used dynamite in
blasting the holes in which 1880 pecan
trees were planted one year ago, also
for planting 5000 peach trees. He says
the per centage of loss on the pecan
trees (Which are among the most diff
cult to set so they will live) was almost
nothing compared with the loss on
other trees planted in the ordinary way.
Another point of great Importance to
orchardists is that trees planted with
dynamite come into bearing much
sooner than when planted by the old
way. w. w. Stevens, orchardist, of
Mayfleld, Ga, reports that he has been
using dynamite for tree planting for
eighteen or twenty years and that in

HEADQUARTERS IN THIsC CITY
Hopeful That Government VIII
Purchase Large Boundary of
Timber In Unaka Range.

United States District Attorney Jas.
b. Cox, of the Eastern district of Ten
nessee, has returned from Washington.
He stated that his business at the ma.
tional capitol was to confer with the
chief forester and other members of the
agricultural department, locking to
having the gvernment purchase lands
in the Unaka, the Iron and other rang
es of the Appalachian mountains in
Eastern Tennessee. He said that he
had some months ago called the atten-
tion of the department to this impor-
tant matter, and that on this trip he
was given assurance that forestry men
would soon be sent to East Tennessee
to take up this work. Gen. Cox visited
the treasury department and succeeded
in having rooms assigned for his use in
the new government building at john
son City, and furniture has been order
ed for these rooms. The same rooms,
Gen, Cox states, will be used by the
forestry experts while they are inquir-
ing into the timber lands that shelter
the head waters of the Holston, Wa
tauga, Nola Chuckey and French
Broad rivers. Gen. Cox still has MOTH
ing to say with reference to the proba-
bility of his becoming candidate for
congress in the First Tennessee district.
Gen. j. B. Cox, United States district
attorney for the eastern district of Ten
nessee, passed through Bristol Friday
on his way to Johnson City, says the
Herald-Courier. Gen. Cox had been in
Washington and while there consulted
with the chief forester and other off,
cials of that department in reference to
the purchase by the United States gov
eminent of lands in this region under
the "Weeks forestry act"
When asked as to what had been
done in the matter, he said: "The
Weeks forestry act was one of the late
Col. Brownlow's favorite measures.
He worked faithfully for its success for
anumber of years and aided in its pas
sage. Col. Brownlow often told me
that he hoped TO have the government
designate and buy lands in the First
district, along the Unaka, Iron, Buffa-
10, Cherokee and other local ranges OF
the Appalachian mountains; that 1t
was his purpose to make Johnson City
the gateway to a great forest reserve,
and in remembrance of his cherished
wish, / am doing all in my power to
influence the carrying out of his plans"
hOn the first of last August" con-
tinued Gen. Cox, 81 went to Washing
ton, and upon inquiry found that Con-
gresham g. b. Slemp, of Virginia, and
Congressman Austin, of Tennessee, and
Congressman Gordon Lee, of Georgia,
had succeeded in having the committee
which is composed of the secretary Of
agriculture, member of congress,
member of the senate, and others, TO
designate the mountain regions in their
respective districts for purchase under
the provisions of the Weeks act. But

PAINE WILL TRY AGAIN ON FOURTH
 OF NEXT MONTH
In the Meantime the Aviator Will Make Trial Flights at Seaside Park

On Saturday March f. Aviator Paine will make another attempt to navigate the sky for the benefit of the citizens of Bridgeport.
 This was decided last evening at a meeting of the committee in charge of the affair. In the meantime Paine will make trial flights daily at the park and those who are interested are free to watch him.
 Before a crowd of about 1, 200 -specta- tors at Seaside park yesterday after noon Aviator Frank Paine demon- strated the fact that he has. a real flying machine and knows how to handle. 1t. He. made four straight away flights inside of an hour and proved that his machine is capable of mounting into the air without any diff ficulty.
 The exhibition occurred while there was a 30 mile gale raging and for that time Paine kept his machine close to the ground, maintaining a heisht of about feet while in the air. The exhibition took place in the open field at the western end of the boulevard
 Among those who witnessed the ex- hibition was Mayor Edward T. Buck ingham, who declared that he felt con- vinced that Paine is real aviator and will make. good when given an opportunity
 Aviator Paine took decided exception to the statements printed in an after noon paper to the effect that his ma- chine is not Made in Bridgeport"

FISH AND GAME
 MATTERS HEARD

Hartford, Feb. 24.-Increasing the limit of length of bass and trout to be retained, placing a minimum age of hunters licenses, and requiring hunters to report the amount of game taken, were some of the matters talk en up yesterday before the fish and game committee.
 Representative Burr of Westport. president of the Greens Farms Farm CTS Club, advocated a measure limit ing hunters licenses to persons of IA years of age or over. At present there is no age limit and any boy can get license, he said. $ Representative Candee favored a 16-year limit. Rep resentative Gallagher of Newtown favored 16. There was no opposition. + Game Commissioner Mathewson fa- vored a. bill to permit non residents of states having reciprocal law taking certain amount of game from the state. Senator Fenn, chair man, said he thought it opened a large avenue.
 Representative Bingham of Nauga- tuck favored a seven-inch limit for Fenn said the minimum length in most New England states was six inches and some even made it five. MT. Bingham said anyone was non- sportsman who brought in a trout less than eight inches long. No one spoke in opposition. MT. Bingham also fa- vored a bill to raise the bass limit from six to eight inches. Represents tive Gallagher of Newtown favored the bill.
 A bill providing for reports by
