1t is good practice to graft plums

An orchard neglected for one year

If your orchard produces poor fruit

Do not be stingy of water for the

The reason fruit trees planted in

The theory is sometimes put for
ward that in mating sire and dam
which both have conspicuous white
markings on their legs the tendency
is for these To assume a more eX-
tensive character in the progeny than
is the case in either of the parents
This theory cannot, however. be sub
stantiated
These markings are of a highly
hereditary nature. and must prove to
be transmitted To the offspring: prob
ably even more SO in the case of the
sire than in that of the dam. Con-
elusive scientific support of this lat
ter theory is not available. but it is

ONLY GRIT SAVED
 HIS LIFE
WORKMAN HAS NARROW ESCAPE FROM BEING CARRIED OVER
 PRECiPlCE.

VALDEZ, May 2.-Numerous mar row escapes have been reported from SnoWsldeS. but a workman in the employ of II. F. Ellis is reported to have had a closer shave than usually falls 10 the lor of those who escape.
 The men is employed on the trail property on Gold creek and il is necessary to do considerable blast ing in places. The man in question had been working only short time and had drilled a hole to the depth of twelve or fourteen inches when he was startled to see slide sweep ing down upon him. There was ab- somtely not shelter and realizing that if carried along with the snow he would be plunged over the precipice hundreds of feet deep, he grasped the drill which was in the hole and threw himself flat on the ground to offer as little resistance as possible to the rushing snow.
 The place where he was at work is high in the mountains and no great body of snow collects as the mountain side is precipitous and the snow finds resting place in the valley shortly after it falls.
 The recent heavy fall of snow, however, had accumulated to con- siderable depth and when it started toward the valley it was in hurry to get there The miner was con- sderably bruised about the hands and head by the rocks carried along by the snow but managed to keep his hold on the drill until the slide had passed It was a narrow escape and he is not anxious for another experience of the kind.

It is entitled The High Hand,' and is brimful of human interest from the opening chapter to the denouement It tells the story of present day pol itics in the masterful manner of one who is absolutely certain of his sub ject, and acquainted from A to z with the system by which the game is played A strong love story run ming through the narrative helps to maintain ones interest and there is not a chapter that fails to hold the attention It is well worth every ones time and subscribers are advis- ed to commence with the first install ment next week.

VACATION IN JAIL INSPIRES THE CHAMPION WITH A
 NEW IDEA.

SAN FRANCISCO. April 23.-"Trus ty" Jack Johnson relinquished his trustTship al the county jail last evening at midnight and will leave train which departs from Oakland al 9 o'clock this morning. His next appearance in public will be at the coronation of King George, when King Jack will be in the king row of London, Illuminating Piccadilly with his golden smile Then. he says. he will become literary man-he will write book. and in it will be the sad tale of his lost faith in man.
 Johnson ended his 9 days of in carceration at the county jail a phi losopher. Also. somewhat of an an archist When asked if he was sorry that he had violated the law by speeding his automobile, John son relapsed into rhetoric and fine distinctions
 ''I am not penitent," he said "al- though l am sorry. And I only re- gret my Imprisonment because it made me lose my faith in other men. They have not broken my spirit at all. They have only broken my re- gard for powerful men. l feel al most anarchistic in spirit because have learned that men are any thing but careful as regards the ob servance of the golden rule.
 My particular experience, and years of study have done me no good My conservative ideas about other men are lost.
 T had learned to be tolerant and generous with others. l be- lieved what others said and prom ised. But don't any more. suppose my conduct now will change toward others The only good have gained is that I have seen the suf ferings of these unfortunates, and shall write a book about what have learned
 "I shall never box again in Cali fornia, and l hope never to see San Francisco again. I am through with the West. It is not fair, nor ap- preciative"
 Jack explained the favors and priv ileges he received at the county jail from Sheriff Finn by saying that he was made sort of trusty. Just what sort he did not define, but his trustyship did not instill in him a trust in his fellowmen as person flied by Police Judge Treadwell. who sentenced him to 9 days for ex- ceeding the speed limit.
 But now Jack is through with Cal ifornia. He will never box in this state. will never seek recreation here, California is wiped off the map with the same brawny fist that wiped Jim Jeffries off the map. If this state produces a white mans hope, he will have to travel some to regain the supremacy of his color. It took l5 rounds for Johnson to eradicate
