Standard Oil Smashed.

In one word-Smashed The
Supreme Court of the United
States yesterday handed down a
decision upholding, with slight
modification, the decision of the
lower court in which the original
suit was tried.
The company is declared a
combination in restraint of trade
and is given six months to wind up
it's affairs.
This is the biggest piece of news
in America for many a day. 1t
strikes the popular notion as being
the proper method of dealing with
trusts that throttle competition.
But it should not be expected that
Standard Oil will obey the order
without making some startling move,
either against the interests that
have been fighting it, or for it's own
protection. 1t has many millions
at stake. 1t has the arrogance of
unlimited capital which has been
the weapon most largely used in
putting other dealers out of business
and strengthening it's own position.
There has been-and is-but one
power it's superior, and that is the
Supreme Court of the United States.
1t has met that power aud is van
lquished. Other illegal trusts will
be scattering this morning for such
cover as is available. -Williamsport

Fire at Masten.

The worst fire that ever visited
the Masten district of the Central
Pennsylvania lumber Company's
operations ragged last week.
The flames were discovered Thurs
day afternoon about o'clock, the
wind having carried them from
what is known as the Cascade
country" Soon the cry of ''iire'
which carries terror into the souls
of intrepid lumbermen was ringing
through the forests, and the hum
dreds of men prepared to fight.
All night Thursday they worked,
and Friday they were joined by
reinforcements from Laquin, Is
miles away, the mills there closing
down so that the men could go to
Masten and help fight the fire.
Friday night the flames were con-
sidered under control. "Back-
firing was worked to good effect.
The flames swept through and
over several thousand acres of first
growth timber owned by the Cen
tral Pennsylvania Lumber Com
pany. A number of contractors
camps were wiped out by the
flames, and fully 100000 feet of
hardwood lumber, together with
about l 800 cords of chemical wood
fell prey to the flames.
Millions Of feet of hardwood
lumber were exposed to the flames,
but the hard work of the frefighters
prevented damage.
The loss is considered small
when it is taken into consideration
that only a small portion of the
exposed lumber was destroyed.

HEAD OF CABBAGE GROWN ON TOWN LOT
tion of the ground involves cleanup
of the winters accumulations Of rub
bish. we are cooperating with the
board of health to make that opera
tion thorough one this year"
The distribution of seeds will be
through the schools. as last year. One
of those gardens. cultivated by two
boys, yielded $75 crop of potatoes.
An effort is being made to interest
the real estate exchange in the work.
and through that agency the commit
tee hopes to get in touch with owners
Of tracts that can be cultivated by
volunteer labor.
"It's just as easy" Mr.. Winsborough
said, ito grow vegetables on vacant
lot as it is to grow tin cans and ashes,
and we will leave it to the owner to
say which crop makes the best appear
ance and enhances most the value of
his land"
Selection Of vegetables which 1t will
be worth while to grow under condi-
tions unfavorable as to soil requires
study and patience. Experience in
gardening under such conditions has
proved the following vegetables to be
profitable in the order here given:
First. the round red radishes. which
should be sown In row not more
than fifteen feet long at one time or
there will be more than can well be
disposed Of.
Next. the loose leaf lettuces, notably
the Hanson variety. Make sowings a
month apart to obtain succession. To-
matoes are profitable next in order.
Set out tomato plants If 1t is possible
to get them. They can be easily raised
in hotbed. Prune them when good
crop is set SO they will ripen.

MAKE VACANT
LOTS USEFUL.
Get the Owners to Lend Them
to People to Cultivate.
PHILADELPHIA TRIES PLAN.
Quaker City Association Succeeds In
Getting Poor Families to Grow vege-
tables on Borrowed Land-kansas
City Also Takes Up "Farming."

Every town has vacant lots which
are eyesores to the community. Some
OF them are used as rubbish dumps and
are Uttered with tin cans, garbage,
ashes and other unsightly things. 9th
ers are covered with rank weeds. If
these lots were planted to useful vege-
tables or beautiful flowers how much
more attractive would they be!
Why not get busy and transform
such lots into gardens and make them
look ornamental instead of unsightly?
Get the owners to lend their unused
land to the poor, who will be glad to
cultivate 1t and raise vegetables.
The splendid work of the Philadel-
phia Vacant Lots Cultivation associa-
ton Is ably exemplifled in the four
teenth annual report
Last year the association conducted
355 family gardens on vacant lots.
The land under cultivation was loan
ed by generous owners. They were not
using it, and the association bound It.
self to return possession to them when
they desired to put it to use or sale.
The narrowing. plowing and all nec-
essary preparation for the cultivation
were carried on by the association, and
about one-sixth of an acre was turned
over to each family. The families
spread the fertilizer, planted the seed,
cultivated the growing crops and gath
cred their mature produce. They took
to their homes what was necessary for
their tables and sold the surplus. in
suring fresh vegetables for home con-
sumption and snug income.
The association plans to carry on this
work the coming summer, and they are
overwhelmed by the new applications
received daily from those anxious to
raise crops.
Owners of vacant lots in Kansas
