If you have land that grew Il heavy
crop of corn ii year ago, having been
MANFRED for that. you have a good
place for any of the small fruits.
Crocuses make pretty borders when
planted on the lawn in front of tail
plants or hedges. Plant them literally
if you wish their splendid effect.
If you observe that the shoots Oh
your trees grow only five or six inches
every year you may know the soil
needs to be enriched. The growth
ought to be from fifteen to thirty
inches every season.
Remove every dead tree from the
orchard. They are veritable breeding
places for fruit pests.
On every crate of fruit. whether fol-
local market or for shipment. the
wholesale trade should have the name
md address of the grower. Only those
who have inferior fruit can afford to
aa"l,ct this.

LITTER AND LOUISE DUST.

Solomon says There's time for
everything under the sum-" and though
we can't turn time backward in its
fight. we are prone to put off till to-
morrow what we should do today.
Now. there's a time to store away
litter for scratching floors and time
not to, and a time to get road dust for
louise baths and a time we cant.
The poultryman who raises his own
grain hasn't much bother. bit those
who gather leaves or buy straw must
keep their weather eye open to gather
material or buy just when it is most
plentiful and cheap
At times straw is hindrance to the
farmer He wants the NOW for other
grain or. as at thrashing time. he gets
''chock full" He will then sell cheap
and be glad to get it out of the way.
Our first choice is wheat straw. oats
next. Leaves and buckwheat straw go
to pieces too soon and fowls get the
feed too easily and thus defeat the
MAN purpose of litter. which is not
only to keep their feet warm and catch
and tangle the droppings. but to give
them exercise to bring eggs.
Storing grain in sheaf is not prac
teal The mice waste it, it shells, does
not get air and molds. and if the
scratching tiO0r is covered with it the
hens get all they want without scratch
ing and simply lay on fat.
Litter should be dry and should be
so stored as not to get musty. for that
is injurious to the hens, and 1t should
be stored where vermin from hens
and sparrows cannot pollute it; thus it
will be sweet. dry and clean FOR the
scratch floor and bedding. breeders
and colony coops the next season.
Clean dust off the roads is best for
louise baths. We gather ours in Au-
gust and are careful to get it dry. 9TH
erwise it may freeze in the boxes. and
then it must be dry to destroy vermin.

The idea that wheat as an exclusive

There should be such q blending of

AFTER ICE TRUST
DISTRICT ATTORNEY BEGINS
ACTION AGAINST soULLEss
CORPORATION

New York, July 13.-The district
attorney and the city police today
began an investigation of the Knick-
erbocker Ice company, which does
the largest ice business here.
The charges are that the so-called
'ice trust" has withheld ice from in
dependent dealers during the recent
prolonged hot weather, in other
words, that it has conducted its
business in restraint Of trade.
Ice riots in the tenement districts
where, during some of the hottest
days, the poor found it almost impos-
sible to buy even the smallest guam
tity of ice desired for their humble
neds, has attracted attention to the
case and spurred the authorities to
quick action.

said to be threatened today.
A report from Grand Rapids tells
of the death of a woman and two
wood choppers in Antrim county,
and the death list will undoubtedly
increase as returns are received fro1n
isolated districts.
At Au Sable and Oscoda a patrol of
the Lake Huron beach has been or
ganized to search for the bodies Of
the victims who have drowned when
driven into the water by the flames.
Women and children stood in the
lake in some instances three and
four hours, submerging themselves
when the heat became too intense for
endurance. Many of these people
report that they saw number of
persons on the docks when the lum-
ber piles began to crumble and fall
into the water, but among the Au
Sable and Oscoda refugees none have
been found who had been on the
docks.
The more conservative, however,
believe that all were saved. The mum,
Der of burned bodies found at Oscoda
and Au Sable was four.
Reports received today from the
region between Alpena and Cheboy-
gan indicate that the town Of Millers'
burg was almost entirely destroyed
Tuesday night and half of Tower is

Puebla, Mex, July 13.-Three sol.
diers of the Twenty-ninth battalion
and number of Maderists, estimat-
ed as high as thirty, were killed and
many others injured in battle be-
tween the two forces which ragged
in the streets of this city from IL
o'clock last night Until Z o'clock
this morning. Forty Maderists are
prisoners in the barracks of the Sar-
goza battalion. The fighting ceased
only when Governor Canete appeared
with white flag and pleaded for
peace.
A special train with Francisco Ma
dero on board arrived in the city
soon after the battle began. 1t is
alleged that drunken Maderists made
an attack on the penitentiary with
dynamite bombs in an effort to re-
lease the prisoners. The Sarogoza
troops, stationed close by, opened
fire.
Maderists from the bull pen bar
racks then attacked the federals and
forced them back into their quar-
ters. A scattering fire was kept up
all night. At daybreak the Twenty
ninth battalion came to the rescue of
the other federals and used a ma
chine gun to clear the strtets. At
this attack the Maderists fled, leav-
ing large number of wounded and
dead in the streets.
