Rich potash deposits, said to contain
more thar enough of this substance to
supply the needs of the United States,
have been located in the West by scien-
lists of the department of agriculture,
according to Secretary Wilson. This dis

a saving of s12, 900, 900 a year to this
country, as heretofore the United States
has been spending about that sum annu-
ally in buying it's potash from Germany.

1t is probable that the price of tur-

Several daily papers have ~prophesied low

say the supply is not any larger than 1t
has been in recent years and they are
not looking for q decided drop. At pres
ent turkeys are selling for 30 cents a

will go any lower. by

STEVENS AGAIN VICTORIOUS.
Won From Brattleboro High Saturday 2e
to 5-Home Team Outclassed, but
Showed UP Well at Times.


Stevens high of Claremont added an
other scalp to its string Saturday after
noon when II defeated the local high
school at Island park >26 to 5. The home
team was outcla ssed and only at times
did they measure up to the s%tandard of
the victorious aggregation. A crowd of
about 100 watched the game. Two of the
winning teams scores might be classed
as flukes, one being made on an offside
kick by Brattleboro that bounded into
Perkins's hands and the other being a
goal from the field made by Bugbee, who
booted the ball from within 25 yards of
the home teams goal post. The pigskin
struck the back of one of the Stevens
players and then scared between the
posts. The winner were superior to the
home team in rushing the ball, but both
teams were about even on the forward
pass. Stevens had the ball the greater
part of the time and went through the
line and around ends for distance time
after time while the ball was away from
the local teams goal, but when the visi-
tors approached within striking distance
of the goal line the Brattleboro boys
held like granite. Six times they held
the visitors from scoring with the ball
within 10 yards of their line.
A 65-yard run in the first period by
Angler, who got the ball on a onward
pass, brought the crowd to its toes. A
touchdown by Benjamin on a 40-yard run
in the third period and a 75-yard run
and touchdown by Warren, who went
through the entire Brattleboro eleven in
the same period, also were features. The
summary.

 Our organizations when properly conducted are not seeking controversy in dealing with their opponents. or those who may intelligently differ with them, and the action of the meeting of Lodge Ill simply ignored Senator McNeil, and commended the other Bridgeport members of the Leg islature. If he had supported this measure he would have received the same recognition.
 Legislation is largely a question of education with our organizations at present Not so much question of education to our members alone. as it is to inform the public of our eco- homie and political strength, the prin- ciples and purposes of organization and the relation of the factors to our industrial and political conditions to- gether with the general effect on so- ciety and the standards of civiliza- ton.
 Our organizations make mistakes, it is admitted, but like all other well intending bodies, the evil seems most apparent and we hope to demonstrate to the public our appreciation of the support public officials render in our behalf as was done in this case more freuuently in the future than we have in the past.

MT. Berger is on a speech making tour of the east to secure enough money for the establishment of a socialist newspaper in his home city. Over $10,000 is required for the venture.
 Before his set speech, the interest ing socialist in witty manner, With pronounced Teutonic accent, and an infectious bonhomie, uttered few truisms that were much appreciatef particularly when he said Tt is bet ter to vote for something you want and not get it, than to vote for some thing you don't want and get It. You all vote for honest men, good companions, fine fellows. That what you are doing in New Haven. The more honest the men you elect, the better they represent Colonel Ike Ullman, Ike Ullman is the man be- hind the gun. I don't know Colonel Ike, but I know that there is an Ike Ullman in every city throughout the country. You are boss ridden.

few trees are to be treated, may be
probably employed, but If the leaves
wilt and die, they serve as an excel
lent hiding place for all kinds of
pests, and present a very unsightly
appearance. A better plan would be
to weigh down the limbs by attach
ing light weights to their ends.
Sweet cherry trees of bearing size
and age should be gone over very
carefully Immediately after the fruit
has been harvested, and all diseased,
injured or surplus limbs removed at
once. If the tree is making a vigor-
Gus growth, it should be checked
and compelled to prepare buds for
the next year.
Pears-Heavy winter pruning Of
bearing pear trees is always accom-

should be avoided as far as possible.
Summer pruning checks the growth

Peaches-When there is greater
danger from winter-killing of peach
trees than from late spring frosts,
then summer pruning becomes very
advisable. But where late spring
frosts are the important factor, then
keep the tree growing as late in the
fall as possible and delay the forma-

Summer Pruning

CBy w. S. Thornber, Head of the De-
partment of Horticulture, W.S.C.)
The pruning of trees and plants
has been practiced as an art ever
since plants have been cultivated,
but like many other agricultural
arts, the countries and districts TO
which fruit growing has been car
ried, have differed so materially from
where the fundamental ideas were
conceived, that in reality new funda-
mentals for the art of pruning have
been developed. When the early
writer said. "Prune when your knife
Is sharp and always keep your knife
sharp" he did not take into consid
Grafton the effect that pruning at
different seasons of the year would
have upon the tree or plant.
The real purpose of summer prun-
ing is to check the naturally rampant
growth of your young fruit trees on
the rich virgin soils, and hasten the
period of profitable fruit bearing
Very little consideration has been
given TO summer pruning in most
fruit growing districts of the east,
for the reasons that land generally
used for fruit was cheap and prac-
tieaily worthless for anything else.
and that it was an established fact
that a tree could not be made to
bear fruit before nature in her slow
way intended it should. The high
values of western orchard land. and
high cost of bringing orchards into
bearing compelled meu to seek early
returns.
