WASHINGTON, ID. c., May s.
In the latter part of May, the
United States supreme court will
enter upon the usual vacation
period which lasts until October.
The justices of this court enjoy
the longest vacation of any of
the public's servants.
The president and cabinet theo-
retically carry on their work all
the time. Even members of con-
gress have to stay in Washington
for extra sessions. And at home
they are often busy. The 10000
civil service employees are granted
80 days annual leave.
1t remains for the supreme
court justices to take four full
months complete rest on full
pay. There is no particular rea-
son why. There is no law giving
them this vacation. They are
paid full salaries for their time.
During their absence business
of the public is neglected. The

sioner, and w. w. Thompson,

new breed of trout. They are a
cross between the steelhead and
cut-throat and declared superior
to either kind.
Some day this week they will
plant about 10000 young trout
of teh new breed in Silver lake,
Upjohn lake and Chop lake. In
three years fishermen will have a
chance to argue over the result of
the cross breeding.

The socialist-labor party has
designated him as it's standard

party.) Here is his platform:
Trusts should not be destroyed;
they should be made up of the
people and then by a system of
social production without arduous
toll every person will be really
free and equal and share equally.

P. G. Lit Orchard.

y representative Of the Min.
ers journal took q stroll up to
the big orchards Of our friend,
Mr. p G.. Iitz, Sunday, and
through the kind hospitality Of
this distinguished gentleman
was shown one of the most
beautiful orchards we have had
the pleasure to behold since our
last visit to the great Ozark ap.
pie regions in Missouri. More
than this, we had the pleasure
of sampling this fruit.
MIR Litz has two orchards.
containing from four to five
thousand trees each, consisting
of apples, peaches, pears, plums
and apricots. lie also has a
large grape vineyard consist
ing OF about six hundred vines.
MIR Litz estimates his apple
crop this year at something like
three thousand bushels. Among
the choicest trees we found
bearing profusely in these big
orchards were Arkansas Black
winter apples, winesaps, Red

Davis, Apple Of Commerce.

Mr. Lilz started on his big
orchards about ten years ago
and h worked faithfully,
though doubtful at times, feel.
ing very much discouraged
but today Mr.. Litz has accom-.
plshed his purpose and has n
fortune in sight. Very little
attention was paid TO the apple
industry in this section prior to
Mr.. Litz coming here. Mrs.
Nash, Vim Hall and Mr.. East
eriing had started orchards,
but had not given much atten-
tion to the work.
Today we find many large
orchards throughout this sec.
ton and it is estimated that
there will be something like
10000 bushels of apples har-
vested adjacent to Coeburn.
This means in round numbers
500, 900.
Among the large orchards on
the mountain and in the Hur-
ricane we find the Litz orchards
