the grass by their shade and prevent
ing the sun from drying out the soil
There are but few places where q
thorough preparation of the soil and
| cultivation during the early years will
not benefit young plantation, and In
many places 1t is a necessity.
Some seedlings are naturally more
vigorous than others. aud In every
plantation some of the young trees
will die the first year because OF the
shock of transplanting. But II rea.
sonable care is taken so that tho roots
of the young seedlings are not al.
lowed to dry out during the planting,
and the soil Is pressed firmly In
against the roots as we'll az down
ward, there is no reason why there
should be any great loss of seedlings
In normel year. Many plantations
are made with the loss OF but few
seedlings Those that die should be
replaced the following spring with
new trees so that the planting may
be kept fully stocked.
II is usual to plant forest trees in
rows rather than scatter them irreg-
ularly over the area. The seedlings
can be more easily and quickly plant
ed, will be distributed more evenly
over the area and the regular arrange
ment facilitates cultivation. II Is also.
advisable to plant the trees closely to-
gether, 80 that the crowns will meet
In few years and the quicker shade
out the grass and weeds and protect
the soil. Where the soil is liable to
dry out quickly and become covered
with thick mat of grass the young
trees should be planted as closely as
four feet by four feet. Otter the rows
are made eight feet aapart and the
trees planted four feet in tn rows. SO
that cultivation OF the soil can BIO cas-
lily carried on. II Is not 30 essential
that the trees be evenly spaced in the,
rows as that the rows be kept
straight. In many plantations crops,
such as potatoes or other low vegeta.
bles, can be grown between the rows
Tor some years. In naturally wooded
regions where the young trees will
grow without much care they can be
spaced six feet by six feet.

Prepared Plant Food.

Because there Is often surplus of
prepared plant food at the end of the
growing season, there is danger of
loss by the wash OF rains. This pre-
pared plant food. mostly nitrogen, is
easily dissolved in water. The best
way to hold II is To plant a crop that
can mostly stay on the ground over
winter. This "cover crop" will abb
sorb the excess end hold 1t till the
following spring, preventing loss.

START FOREST PLANTING
GOOD TIMBER is VALUABLE AS
SET TO THE FARM.
Professor j. A. Ferguson. Department
Of Forestry, University Of
Missouri

Nearly every farm contains some
land that Is too poor for raising crops
or that is too stony or rough or Is
otherwise unfit for pasture. This land
usually lies idle year after year, a
| burden to the owner, for Il brings in
no revenue but must pay its share OF
taxes Such land should be planted
with forest trees rather than be al
lowed to grow up to weeds. On many
farms the planting up OF such areas
would not only supply the farm with
all the fence posts and cordwood
needed but would also furnish some
material for sale. When we consider
that on land suited to its growth an
acre planted with such q fast growing
tree as catalpa will produce from one
to three thousand posts in twenty
years, n farmer by allowing land to
lie idle is losing a return which he
could secure by a slight effort.
The starting of forest planting is
not a difficult matter. The principal
expense is in securing the seedlings.

llngs on the farm. Where seeds can
be collected and kept over winter for

time and effort required. Dry seed,
such as catalpa, ash, tulip, maple and
box elder, will keep well over winter

wet seeds. such as hickory, walnut

The sod should be plowed up year

HOUND LEADS TO
CAPTURE OF MAN
Police Believe They Have One
of Men Who Shot Up Mil
itary Train.

CHARLESTON. W. Va. Nov. 2s.-
The activity Of the soldiers who with
bloodhounds have been trailing sus-
peoted disturbers through the noun
tains of the martial law region of the
Kanawha coal fields resulted today
in the capture near Leewood, w. Va.
of man whose name was given as
King. He was wanted in connection
with the attack on a military train
last Friday, when Engineer Blanken-
ship was shot.
The military court has adjourned its
hearings until next Tuesday, when, it
Is stated, the remainder sof the
twenty-five cases will be heard.
Among those listed for trial is
Samuel Russell, who was taken after
q long chase which followed the
shooting up of the town of High Coal
Queen, a bloodhound which figured
IN the Beattie case, picked UP the
trail on a rock In the stream. and,
jumping to another rock, announced
with a loud bay that the fugitive
was making his way by jumping
from stone to stone. For two miles
the chase continued down the bed of
the stream when the trail was lost
again. But Queen found it on the
bank and then followed 1t through
fifteen miles of thicket and forest to
a point within three miles of the
mountain from which the town had
been attacked. Here was Russelrs
home, and when he appeared at the
door the dog pounced upon him.

REBELS FIRE ON
AMERICAN WOMEN
Panic on Train as II Flees
from Terror-Stricken
Zone.

Ell PASO, Tex, Nov. 23.-Refugees
arriving on marooned passenger
train report further destruction Of
the Mexican Central railway below
Juarez by rebels. who fired into the
train on which rode 200 persons,
among whom we're many American
women and children. injuring no one,
but causing a panic among the
women passengers.
The rebel general. Marcelo CaraSeo,
Is operating below JuaTez with 600
men. He apparently awaits a juno
ton with General Antonio Rojas, who
has about the same number, and with
Inez Salazar, who took the port OF
Palomas on the New Mexico border.
After this mobilization of forces. the
rebels are expected to move on
Juarez, defended by less than goo
federals. With practically no artil-
lery.
Major Mcdonald, of the Thirteenth
United States cavalry, stationed at
Columbus, N. M, had a conference
with General Salazar who rode from
Palomas to the international bound
ary to meet the American officer.
The rebel leader said he had cap
tured eighty federal prisoners, and
that fourteen federals had been killed
in the Palomas attack. He said that
his men took possession of 1900
rounds of ammunition and $50 rifles.
which will make possible the recruit
ing of Salazar's force to 500 men.

GIRL COMPLAINS
OF PATROLMAN
Declares Policeman Tried to
Force Her to Leave Board
ing House.

Eva Rogers, a pretty 1T-year-old
girl appealed to Judge Hahn In the
Third Precinct Police Court toady TO
prevent Patrolman Anthony F, john
son. of the Sixth precinct. from mo.
Testing her. The patrolman is the
girls cousin and 1t is said tried to
force her to leave her boarding house
at 2a9 Elm street to live with his
mother at rs Joseph street. PATROL
man Daniels found johnson and an
other man quarreling in front of the
girls house last night.
Judge Hahn scored the officer and
the use OF his authority as an officer
TO annoy the girl. "This lis an out
rage. and If it had gone any further
should certainly call the attention
of the police commissioners TO the
matter" declared the judge in his
rebuke. The girl objected to living
with her relatives because the police
mans mother kept a saloon. The
fudge upheld her objections and
praised her for her ambitions to get
an education by attending night
school.
johnson declared that his mother
had been appointed guardian of the
girl by her father. who is in the old
country. He said he was trying to
keep her under his mothers eye.
The girl said that johnson tried to
force his way into the house. A
boarder. william Sowitsky. put him
out and was quarreling with him
when the officer arrived.
This Is not the first time Johnson
has been In trouble. Three months
ago he was found on post by SER
geant in the Fourth precinct. His
excuse was that he was chasing
burglars. He exhibited gunshot
wound In his hand. Captain vogel
preferred charges against him and
he was transferred to the Sixth pre-
cinct. The first night On his new
post he became lost and missed 3
duty call. The second night he was
found in a dance hall. He was fined
on this charge by the police commits
sioners.

SEEKS TO
Be RE|NSTATED
Asks Court to Compel Restora-
tion to License Inspector
Civil Service List.

Jacob l.. Newman, as counsel for
George A. Roehm, 2s5 Littleton avet
nue.. appeared before Chief Justice
William S. Gummere today and en-
deavored to obtain a writ Of certiorari
to review the action of the State
Civil Service Commission in striking
the name of Roehm from the eligi-
bility list for appointment as license
inspector of the city of Newark and
also TO obtain writ of mandamus
compelling stlie commission to restore
his name to the list
Roehm, with a number of others,
took the examination for license in
spector last July, and stood No. on
the list On October he claims he
was asked TO appear before the COM
mission and show why his name
should not be removed from the elig-
ible list, it being alleged that he had
made an arrangement with Herman
Van Steenbergh, who stood ahead OF
him on the list, to withdraw in his
favor. Roehm claims that this was
not true, and that he so proved to the
commission. but that, despite this
fact, his name was removed from the
list on November 8, and David Weiss
man placed in his stead as No. 8, one
appointment having been made since
he took the examination.
He stated that prior to November
Q the list of eliglbles was Charles M.
Jessup, John F. McGuinness and him
self, in the order named, and that the
first two were retained.
Chief Justice Gummere took the
matter under advisement and will
announce a decision later.
