Arrangements are being made
by the Kansas State Agriculture
college and the United States de-
partment of agriculture to secure
the services of a dry farming ex-
pert to work among the farmers
of the Western counties of Kan
sas. Part of the expenses are to
be paid by Kansas and by the
general government. 1t is pos
stable that such an expert will
give one farmer suggestions that
will be worth his whole salary;
and for all the farmers that can
be reached many times his salary
will uuquestionably be saved. 1t

BARNEY O'NEIL IN PRISON

Barney O'Neil, former president of
the State Bank of Commerce at Wal
lace, who went to Vancouver some
months ago and stoutly denied that
there was any crooked work In con-
nection with the defunct bank, and
who persistently stated that he was
willing to return and stand trial but
yet never came, was placed in prison
in Vance yer Tuesday to await the
arrival of an officer from Idaho to
bring him back on extradition pa
pers.
O'Neil has been engaged in the real
estate business there, and when or
dered to prison he tried to comfort
his wife for the few moments he was
left in her company, and when he
was out Of her sight he gave way to
tears. When he reached the prison
he broke down and sobbed and
moaned as If nearly heart broken.
Two years ago O'Neil was in the
race for governor Of Idaho.

HAZED THE HAZERS

The hazing of students in our in
situations of learning has been car
ried to such lengths that popular in
dignation sometimes reaches the boil
ing point, and it is with much graft
fication that the public learns of the
refusal of St. Anthony boy at Provo
to be hazed.
When the committee waited upon
him to administer punishment for not
doing some stunt which they had de-
creed that he should, he met them
at the door Of his room, and laid
three of them out with a ball bat,
and the others, seeing three in the
lead piled up in the doorway, we're
very easily dispersed by an officer
who arrived upon the scene.
That kind Of a reception appeals
to large number of persons who do
not approve Of the exercise of that
particular amount of personal lib
erty" that drags a boy from his room
to be ducked in the river until he
faints and is left freezing on the
banks, or some other equally brutal
performance. Johnny, get your gum!

THE MORMON CONFERENCE
ogden Standard)


Any church that can celebrate more
than four score annual conferences
with an accurate report of constant
ly increasing numbers, revenue and
activity, deserves at least, profound
consideration. And that is part of
the record of the Mormon church,
which has just concluded its regular
April meeting at Salt Lake.
A Utah man needs by no means
be member of the Mormon church
to recognize and concede it's many
excellencies. And to the rest of the
world, it might be well to point out
the parctical fruits of Mormon teach
ing. OF it's people this, at least, must
be said: They are Industrious; they
are commercially honest, and they ed
ucate their children. And no people
who work and pay their debts and in
struct the young can be bad.
We incline very strongly to Presi-
dent Smiths idea, as expressed in
his recent address before the confer
ence. 1.-THE Mormons are not attacked
because of the things they do, but be-
cause Of the things the attackers say
they do. Yet it is more than likely
the attackers, in many instances, be-
lieve what they say"
There is an adage-and there is
some truth in it-that the Mormons
are peculiar people. 1t would be
strange If they were not. When one
considers the perfectly marvellous
journeys across the plains in the ear
ly days, the sacrifices Of the women,
the suffessings of the children, the la
3 Dors of the men, one must conclude
there was sound timber in the bodies
and firm faith in the souls. And the
children Of such parentage can not es-
cape something of the qualities which
make for worthy manhood and wo-
manhood 1t is a good population.
They have had conference. Ad-
herents have come from every part
of the world. The institution is
stronger than ever before. In day
of some detraction-which seems to
annoy rather than hurt-it is a pleas
ure to give our congratulations.

FAITH CURE IN ANACONDA

A family in Anaconda are rejoicing
over the cure by prayer of girl who
had been afflicted with hip disease
since her birth. She tasted and
prayed for nine days for relief from
her crippled condition, and at the end
of the time while playing in the yard
her playmate discovered that she was
no longer crippled, and called atten-

not know just when the short Grip
pied limb became like the other one,
but Immediately rushed into the
house to show the family, and then
retired to return thanks to God for
her restoration.

MUCH NEEDED INVESTIGATION
OF ORCHARD IRRIGATION

There is but little doubt that the
maximum production of irrigated ap-
pie orchards depends. to very con-
siderable extent, upon the proper ir-
rigation of the trees. That the mois-
ture content of the soil during the
summer season has a very decided eff
feet upon the development of the fol-
lowing years fruit buds has been a
well grounded theory for some years.
1t is believed that orchards which
bear only every alternate year fail to
produce profitable crops, owing to a
lack of sufficient moisture for the de-
velopment of the following years
fruit buds at some critical stage of
the growth during the season.
Apple trees need the largest supply
of moisture during the time that the
fruit is growing rapidly, and the the
DRY is that as the following years
fruit buds are being formed this time,
a deficient supply will stunt the
growth of the fruit buds which will
cause short crop the following year.
If this is true, it will not only ap-
ply to irrigation sections, but to the
humid sections as well. If this vex-
ing problem could be accurately
worked out, the orchardist under a
good irrigation system will be able
to produce maximum crops every year
provided he learns how to properly ir-
rigate his trees, while the orch ardist
In the humid sections will have to be
content to go on producing crops ev-
cry alternate year, for he will be una
bic to supply the needed moisture at
the proper time.
This theory is SO well grounded
and there has been so much agitation
along this line, particularly during
the last few years since so many mil
lions of dollars nave been invested in
irrigated apple orchards, that it is
thought the time is now opportune
for the state and national experiment
stations to begin to study this fea-
ture.
This department is now planning
to begin systematic and intricate
study of this factor which should
cover sufficient number of years so
that the problem can be accurately
worked out, and it is hoped that we
will be able to hand out some very
valuable data along this line during
the next few years. If this problem
can be worked out successfully, it
will place the irrigated apple or
chards of the west on a more stable
basis than ever before.

A BEE-KEEPER'S "REMINISCENCES.

| \SOutIlUuIcO Wy w LII. DcuCuS)
Years ago when l first began my
agricultural career and knew all about
bees, said one morning to my wife.
my dear. we're going to stay at
home this forenoon. The bees won't
swarm today"
l began to busy myself by turning
my attention to the lawn, humming
at times little ditties, and breaking
out vigorously at times in a deep
bass voice, which one of our friends
heartlessly said sounded like a mill
in distress. In the midst of one of
these outbreaks Of feeling l was
brought back to the reality of every
day life by the exclamation, 1.-THE
bees are swarming."
Upon reaching the bee yard
found swarm circling around with
out the slightest regard for anyone's
feelings. The bees finally met in
convention on huge limb high up in
an immense oak. My heart sank
within me; but hope returned, and
got the ladder. I made up my mind
to sweep the senate, secure majority
in the house, shear the committee on
rules of its power. and to make some
innovations that would teach those
bees where they were going to get
off.
tied one end of rope to my an
kle and the other end to a basket,
and mounted the ladder, scaling the
"unk above the ladder like a mon
key. The campaign was nicely
planned and should have terminated
well, but "The best laid plans of mice
and men gang aft agleg" as has been
said by the poet.
reached the bees safely, and
found that they were full blooded n.y.
brids. Two or three bees faced about
and started in an unmannerly way
that is always disconcerting to sem
sitive nature; but proceeded to pull
up the basket in a calm and noncha-
liant way, as if the danger was pas
time, while my wife looked on proud
ly from below. l then proceeded to
scrape off the bees with unerring
hand. 1t was then that those hy-
birds made an exhibition of them
selves that was entirely out of place.
One, with foul intent, harpooned me
on the hand, another went up my
sleeve, but when they advanced i'm
solid phalanx and made flank move
ment, pouring in volley of poisoned
arrows through my thin denim
trousers, I became disguised and
made up my mind that l wouldn't
hive bees that acted in that disgrace
full way. I began to retire then.
Don't come too fast" said my wife.
l assured her that l couldn't. I was
taking full advantage of gravity, al
though it was not Intentional. For
tunately the rope, which was attached
to my ankle prevented the disfiguring
of the lawn. After long interval
lat least so 1t seemed to me) my wife
who had gone after a knife, relieved
me of the monotony of swinging, sus-
pended by one leg, like a pendulum.
fighting valiantly, and with perfect
presence of mind, the bees which had
taken advantage of the absence of a
bee-veil, and were without feeling,
burrowing in my hair, and clinging
tenaciously to my face and neck. Even
after had gone into the house, had
cared for the stings, and had fallen
asleep, my slumber was disturbed by
the eternal buzz, buzz, buzz of
swarming bees.

have Mexico adjust its own internal
dissensions, but the best informed
men In the capital are quite free to
admit that Intervention is quite prob
able.
According to Secretary Wilson of
the department of agriculture, Con-
gresham Clark of Florida, who has
stirred up the investigation of the
Everglades, should be an object of
pity. The general opinion in Wash
ington is that the Florida everglades
will, If drained, represent one of the
richest agricultural sections of the
country. However, with the water
on the land, it is practically value
less. The state of Florida has made
an appropriation of several million
dollars to redeem the land, and while
some of the land sharks have taken
advantage of this announced policy to
sell the everglades-on sight and un-
seen, before it is drained, yet people
who appreciate the significance of the
great movement, have little sympathy
with men like Clark who are stand
ing in the way of great movement
in his own state. The time may come
although it may be considerably in
the future, when the Florida ever
glades will be richly productive.
Arizona and New Mexico will no
longer come begging at the doors
of Congress, as the delegates used to
say. Now New Mexico has two men
in the House where formerly there
was one without a vote, and there
are two in the senate, whereas that
branch of the government was, in
former days, manipulated only
through such influence on the part
of members as the delegates might
be able to command. In the case of
ARIZONA there is one representative
in the House and two in the senate.
At least these two great sections of
the southwest are not only represent
ed on the flag, but are also actually
on the legislative map.
The merry war of typewriters of
every political headquarters is still
going on, but those in the House of
Taft seem to have drowned out the
noise of the other Republican insti-
buttons, while Speaker Clark's bureau
is in a like manner dominating the
Democratic situation. The secret of
the whole thing seems to lie in the
fact that the $50 or more newspaper
correspondents of Washington have
been stampeded to the view that these
two men are in charge of the 1912
band wagons.
The National Monetary commission
has gone out of business but as leg
acy has left the so-called "Aldrich
plan" as a means of regulating the
banking affairs of the country, and
sooner or later the law makers will
take up this great scheme, which was
worked out by the commission with
a view to increasing the stability of
the financial institutions of the coun-
try. While the commission has made
its report, there will be no legislation
on it at this session of congress.
A proposition in the senate is to
reduce the subscription price on the
Congressional Record to so for long
session and 81 for short sessions, or
fifty cents month, payable in adj
vance. AS a matter of fact, under
the present arrangement, any person
who'll agree to read the Record
can get it free by applying to his
congressman.
