GUILTY" OF
BIGAMY CHARGE

c.. T. Daquqe, who was arrested at
GAINESVILLE under Indictment for big
amy, last Saturday, appeared before
Judge Nye this morning to plead. At
torney Rustad, who yesterday was ap-
pointed by the court to defend the
prisoner, entered a plea of not guilty
to the charge. The court fxed the
amount of the bail bond at $4,000,
which was more than the prisoner
could command, so he was remanded to
jail until he is called for trial. 1t is
very likely that as far as IS gnown
now County Attorney Dosland will
move the trial of criminal cases next
Monday and probably this will be one
of the first cases called.

WHAT TO DO IN CASE
OF WATERMELON WILT

The breeding of resistant strains of
watermelons and extreme care to pre-
vent watermelon wilt from spreading
to new fields are practically the only
things that can be done in case ground
is infected with this fungOus growth,
according to the opinion of F. D. Bailey
Of the crop pest force Of the Oregon
Agricultural college.
The characteristic symptom is the
willing and dropping Of the foliage,
which comes suddenly and the plant
dies shortly after The fungus is
capable of living in the soil for sew
eral years and attacking any plants
that are put into that ground. 1t is
frequently spread to new fields through
the application of manure containing
diseased plants from the compost heap,
or, it is thought, the excretia of cattle
that have pastured on wilted vines.
60 In the first place, every precaution
should be taken to keep the disease
from spreading to new fields" said
Mr. Bailey. "Tools used in a field
whore the disease is found should be
cleaned and sterilized before using
them in ground free from the trouble
Do not drive or walk directly from the
one to the other, or allow soil to be
transferred, as it might be where ir
rigation is practiced. Keep the com
post heap free from the fungus, Wher
the disease appears in patch, the
plants affected should be removed and
burned as soon as discovered.
''In districts where this wilt is al
ready widespread and the future cul
tivation Of melons is desirable, the on
ly course is to secure a resistant strair
I by bredenig and selection. Work is il
progress toward this end at one place
in the Willamette Valley, The expert
mental work consists in crossing thC
watermelon withthe citron, which i,
more hardy and resistant to the wilt

good flavor and shipping qualities caI

eral work of the committee, about dou-
Bile the usual offering taken for this
purpose. This is in addition to the
yearly meeting appropriation for this
purpose, and the local expenditures.
John f. Hanson, of Portland, ex-
pressed a concern" as the Friends
call it, to make a trip to Sweden and
Denmark in the interests of Christian
ity and Quakerism. The yearly meet
ing was united with him in that "con-
cen" and he was liberated for that
service, and the yearly meeting will
bear the expense of the trip. He ex-
poets to leave early in 1914. This is
the third trip he has made to bear the
Quaker message to the Scandinavians,
The last visit of the sort was made by
him ten years ago.
