Experiments Promising

K. Rogers of the department of silviculture of the United States forest service returned recently from trip to the Coconino na- tional experiment station at Fort Valley, where extensive tests of the turpentine possibilities of western yellow pine are being car ried on.
 Mir. Rogers said that conditions are very promising indeed.
 There are over 2,ooo trees gashed," MT. Rogers said, and the turpentine is flowing Owing to the cool weather they are hav- ing. the flow has not been very great thus far, but later on we ex- pect a good flow, and l think that by the end of the year we will be able to offer definite statements of the turpentining possibilities of the western pines.
 There are great areas of west ern yellow pine which it is known will yield heavy quantities of gum, but the turpentine content of that gum is not definitely known yet, and probably will not be before an analysis is made of the yield this season. It is thought that this content will be great enough to form a commercially valuable product under conditions in the near future.

.UNJUSTLY CRIT|C|SE
 YAEGER'S APPOINTMENT

ment on the appointment of Har- low Yaeger says:
 MT. Yaeger is a young man who is not generally known to our people. He is a brother of the late L. D. Yaeger. His place of residence is Tempe, although he has large interests in this county.
 Disappointment was expressed by the people of Williams that the vacancy was not filled by the selection of a man from this To- cality. While no objection to the new appointee's fitness is heard, he being almost an entire stranger in the county, it was confidently believed that a man from Williams would be chosen. This section is surely entitled to representation on the board. Two men from this city, either of whom would have filled the position capably, were candidates, and sense of justice should have prompted the appointing power to grant us the favor asked for and which is right fully our due.
 The News is mistaken concern ing Harlow Yaeger's residence, and as to his being unknown in Coconino county.
 The new supervisor has never been a resident of Tempe, and has been a resident of Flagstaff for about ten years. He owns a resi- dence in Flagstaff and has lived actually in Coconino county dur ing that time. His father was honored with the mayorality of Phoenix. Louis Yaeger was mar ried to a young lady of Tempe and owned a residence in Flag staff and last year purchased winter home in Phoenix, but Har- low Yaeger, a younger brother, and young man who by his own individuality has made himself man to be reckoned with in the affairs of life, has been a resident of Coconino county for more than ten years without having ever ac- quired a residence south. That Williams should be aggrieved over the appointment of a Flagstaff man, to fill the vacancy caused by the death of a Flagstaff member of the board, and member who is a brother of the man whose un- timely death caused the vacancy, is but natural Harlow Yaeger, regardless of politics, is a mighty good man, level headed and pretty sure to use more good judgment than merely seeking political agrandizement.
 The editor of The Sun, during the last legislature, favored di- vision of the different counties into supervisors districts in order that representation would be given different sections of the country, but the bill died a-bornin' Will Hams with two candidates failed to score an election, yet many things were said about plumping for a single candidate.
 The mention of the names of different candidates for the place was hear-say in the part of The Sun and many names were men, toned, some avowed candidates, some merely mentioned by friends 1 as good men for the place.

Seeding Alfalfa.

The Missouri Farmers Institute says
that alfalfa Ia best seeded In August or
September, but before seeding the seed
bed should be persistently and thor
eughly prepared, II the soil is acid or
sour, use finely ground limestone.
II tho field is we'll worn liberal dress
ing OF manure will act as an insurance
against probable failure. Disk the sur
face Of the unplowed land, after dress
ing with manure, until mulch Of looss
BOIL is on the surface. Plow to a depth
Of six inches or deeper, and Immediately
disk and harrow. roll and drag until you
have a seed bed fit to SOW onion seed In.
Then apply your lime or limestone and
again harrow. This should provide an
environment Of alfalfa seed, which, with
pne addition, win not only sopply the
factors necessary for termination but
Tor rapid growth and development as

Missouri Poultry News.

New features are being added in the
poultry department at the State Fair in
Sedalia, Mo, this year. The fair will
take place September Goth to October
9th, Most liberal premiums will be
paid on all varieties of poultry, $500
being offered for first prize, $500 for
second, and 81 90 for third.
For the benefit OF the patrons OF the
Missouri State Fair poultry show we
have decided TO make the following
offer: We are preparing a number OF
iOxi4-foot yards out on the open lawn,
as many as will be necessary to accom-
/ modate the birds sent and will allow our
friends to use these pens as display and
sales yards for any surplus stock they
may want to dispose of during the fair
These yards will accommodate from 20
to 30 birds each. 1t would be great
advertisement for any breeder to show a
flock in this way He can put up his
own signs and advertising matter on the
pens, and sell the birds from them to be
delivered at the close OF the fair. II we
can secure the entry OF a number OF
pens in this way, this exhibit will attract
a great deal Of attention. A fee OF 90
cents will be charged for each bird put
in the display yard to cover the actual
cost Of care, feeding and watering.
Those who are interested in this propo-
sition should let T. E. Quisenberry,
Mountain Grove, Mo-, who is superin-
tendent of the poultry department, know
by September 10Th whether they want a
yard reserved for them or not. No yard
will be reserved until the money Is paid
There will also be IN display views Of
the poultry buildings and appliances at
the State Poultry Station at Mountain
Grove, Mo. Model poultry houses which
are best suited to the farmers Of the
state will probably be erected near the
poultry building, and other interesting
features will be added whioh will make
1t we'll worth your while to make an
exhibit at the Missouri State Fair, and
get in touch with the thousands Of far
mers and poultry raisers who visit there
each year. T. f. QUIsENBERRY,
