COURT PAPERS MISSING.
Party in Divorce Case Alleged to
Have Taken Them.

Medford Sun: Alleged destruction
OF evidence in the divorce suit of S.
S. Swenning, a forestry service en-
ploye, Instituted by his wife. fur
nishes a tangled condition of affairs
in the office of the county clerk and
blocks a threatened investigation by
the government into the conduct of
its worker, according to a statement
made by county officials Saturday.
Little publicity was given to the di-
vorce suit and less to the loss of the
papers, in the hope that they would
be returned.
According to county authorities,
Mrs, Swenning secured a divorce
from her husband, and a few weeks
afterward asked for the papers that
she might make a duplicate of the
matter. She was given the complaint,
evidence and letters filed as exhib-
its in the divorce suit. Mrs. Sven
ming, according to the statements of
the Officials, promised to return the
papers. The complaint was returned,
tampered with, it is alleged, but the
evidence and exhibits were missing.
Officials asked Mrs Swenning the
whereabouts of the valuable papers
and she said, according to the au-
thorities, that her baby had thrown
them in the stove and they were
burned up. This leaves no record
on the county books of the divorce
action, and forestalls a departmental
investigation of Swenning.
County Clerk Coleman stated Sat.
urday that he had not given up hope
of finding the papers, and that the
fact that a woman was concerned
was the only thing that kept him
from placing the matter before the
next term of the grand jury. He
said that it had been suggested tc
him that search warrant be issued
to search the home of Mrs. Sven,
ming for the missing papers, but thai
he would not take this action. The
authorities say they gave the paper:
to Mrs. Swenning as a matter of ac
commodation and that she violated
their confidence.

The Boost That Borah Got.

Senator William E. Borah of Idaho
is one of the most democratic fellows
you ever saw, and he goes around
Washington wearing a blue sack suit
Mrs. Borah to give him numerous
lectures in a gentle manner, indi-
eating her belief that he should have
more regard for his senatorial dig
nifty and drape his stalwart form in
a Prince Albert coat, not to mention
pressing down upon his belligerent
brow high silk hat. So far, how
ever, the senator has not increased
the sale of frock coats, but has en-
joyed a wonderful degree of physical
comfort, the story of which he has
frequently unfolded to Senator Gore,
the blind man from Oklahoma.
One evening Borah told his wife
that he had received a great COM
pliment, the same being that he was
the DeSt dressed man in the United
States senate. Mrs. Borah, sitting
on the other side of the reading ta-
BILE, made no answer, and conveyed
the general idea that the conversa-
tion had reached a stage which bored
her immensely.
My dear, you don't sem interest
ed" said the senator, looking across
at her, and you don't ask me who
paid me the compliment"
81 am always interested in every
thing you do and everything that
happens to you" replied Mrs. Borah
but | don't have to ask you who
told you about being so we'll dressed

Gore"

The JACKRABBlT IN KANSAS
In War of determination That State
Has Spent Over 100000.

The gentle jackrabbit stands not
the slightest show in Kansas. No
body likes HMM fact, he is known
as the greatest pest in that state,
simply because he is Unfortunately
fond of alfalfa. Variety in diet does
not appeal to him. For breakfast,
dinner and supper and a light repast
just before retiring just give the
jackrabbit plain alfalfa and he is
perfectly satisfied.
AS a result of this remarkable ap-
petite for what forms one of Kan
sas' chief crops more than 100000
of the little animals lost their lives
during the winter now drawing to it's
close. Indeed, it is probable that
the total slaughter of rabbits during
the winter exceeded 3,0O0,00O; many
thousands were killed in rabbit
drives and no bounty asked. The
state in five months has spent over
500, 900 to remove the rabbits, ev-
cry county in the western half of
Kansas paying a bounty Of five cents
for each one killed.
More rabbits were killed in Finney
county than in any other part of
Kansas, but the county paid less
than $1,000 in bounties. Over TO-
600 rabbits were wiped out, but they
were killed in big drives, paFticipat-
ed in by several hundred citizens
and two train loads of tourists
stranded in the town when the Santa
Fe railroad was showed under for
five days and trains were not being
operated.
The rabbits were shipped to char
table organizations in Chicago, st.
Louis, Kansas City, New York, Bos
ton, Philadelphia and other eastern
towns for free distribution among
the poor.

INJURY BY WEEVILS
Insect Moves About but Little
Except in the Fall.
Pest May Be Greatly Reduced by
Picking Them Off the Little Cot
ton Until Squares Begin
to Form in Spring.

(By G. II. Afford, Special Agent Of the
Farmers Cooperative Demonstration
Work. Jackson, Miss)
Farmers who destroy the squares,
hollis and foliage-the sole food sup
ply of the weevil-on or before Octo-
Der 20 and add strength to this almost
knockout blow by blowing under all
the weevils in the cracks and holes
in the ground and in the grass and
trash on the ground and by destroy
ing practically all the weevils hiber-
mating along the turn-Tows, fences,
hedges, and in general the vicinity OF
the fields and follow up the destruc-
ton by picking the weeVils off the
little cotton until the squares begin
to form and by picking up the pune
tuTed squares for at least one month
after the squares begin to form, will
certainly reduce the number Of boil
Weevils to the minimum.
When the over-wintered weevils
emerge from winter quarters in the
spring and reach the little cotton
there is little further movement until
the general dispersion season in Au-
gust, September and October The
over-wintered weeviIs go from winter
quarters to the nearest cotton field
and remain there until the migratory
period in the fall The fact that the
weeVil moves about but little except
in the fall makes it possible for an
individual farmer to obtain the best
result from his own efforts in fighting
the pest. There is little danger Of
the arrival of weevils from fields
where they have not been picked off
the little cotton until in August when
the cotton crop is normally set. The
danger of the movement Of weeyils
from farm to farm before August is
not important enough to warrant any
farmer in hesitating to thoroughly
pick the weevils and punctured
squares.
Where the food supply Of the wee,
wills is not destroyed early in the fall
and strength added to this blow by
blowing under the cornstalks, grass,

PEOPLE KILLED BY RAILROAD
Most of Them Are Not Passengers.
But Are Tramps and Drunks Who
Have Gone to Sleep on Track.

~AO0C VI AAOAA ENIC NOU L dSSGuSGTS,
But Are Tramps and Drunks Who
Have Gone to Sleep on Track.
ATLANTA.-Govern Brown has
received a copy of a remarkable let
ter written by Darius NJ. Miller, pres
ident of the Chicago, Burlington and
Quincy railroad to the governors of
various western states. The letter
comes to Governor Brown through
Charles A. Wickersham, president of
of the Atlanta and West Point and
Western Railway of Alabama.
1t deals with the fact that the ma
jority of people killed by the rail-
roads are not passengers or persons
employed by the roads, but are per-
sons who are trespassing on the rail-
road roperty-tramps walking on
or lying on the tracks, drunken men
who have staggered into freight
yards and similar classes.
It quotes from interstate COM
merce commission decisions showing
that 51,835 people were killed by
railroads while trespassing on rail
road property in the United States
| during the period covered by 1902
! 1911.
The letter points out that these
are the deaths which could be avoid
ed, which the railroads are not re-
sponsible for, and which are caused
| by the carelessness or unlawful act
of the victims themselves.

n, tration,
trash, weeds and other vegetable mat
ter that serves as winter quarters for
the weevils and by destroying practl.
cally all the weevils alternating along
the fence rows, hedges and ditch
banks, the over-wintered weevils are
often sufficiently numerous to pune
ture the squares as fast az they form
on the cotton. Under such conditions
it Is not necessary for the over-win-
tered weevils to multiply before the
Squares are punctured as fast as they
form on the cotton. When the over
wintered weevils are sufficiently nu-
merOus to puncture the squares as
fast as they form no cotton will be
made unless the weevils are picked off
the little cotton and the punctured
squares destroyed.
DR.. w. D. Hunter of the bureau of en-
tomology estimates the possible prog
eny of single pair of weevils during
a season beginning on June 20 and ex-
tending to November at 1875, 100
Nature has provided a number of
agencies to prevent such excessive
multiplication, however, the picking
of pair of weevils off the little cot
ton means millions less later on. Ev-
cry pair of weevils pick off and de.
stroyed reduces the number of punct
ured squares and bolls by millions.
