He stated that he heard one of the Mar
Gus boys ask Joe to come to bed but
that the deceased continued working
around the stove. He also testified that
he heard Schmidt ask Marcus if he was
looking after trouble and the answer
that he was not. Schmidt then told
Joe to go to bed and the next thing he
heard was Joe asking Schmidt if he
was going to shoot. Segil and Joe then
wrestled over a shovel and when Segil
got the shovel Joe walked toward

arm over the defendant s shoulder and
three shots followed.

do not wish to be confronted with an
angry shipper the last week before
Christmas and refuse his shipment be-
cause he does not happen to carry a
certain form of stamp in his pocket,
and therefore they caution employees
to have stamps handy, as fine of $50
is provided for both shipper AMI mes

This is SO important to the express
companies that after December ] they
will issue 10 l INT stamps to all trav-
cling messengers, and these must be
put on receipts issued for shipments
even received at flag stations, If the
shipper is not there, the messenger
must then stamp the receipt and carry
it in his pocket until the return trip
or some other time when he meets
with the shipper, whereupon he must
deliver the receipt and also demand
indemnity for the 1-cent stamp.
Marriage Certificate Stamps.
If poultryman ships eggs by ex-
press he must affix stamp to the ex.
press receipt, sign his own initials upon
it and also the date; If newly we'd
ded couple is presented with mar
rage certificate to be kept by them
they must affix a 10 cent stamp there
to, but marriage certificates returned
for public record are exempt; if an alb.
stractor searches the county records
for the status Of piece of property,
the certificate showing such search
must be stamped, unless the work is
done for state Or government purposes.
Oddly enough there are some excep-
tions, as the stamp law has been in
terpreted by the treasury department.

the top roots; however deeply these
roots may penetrate into the soil in
order that the tree may not be up
rooted by winds that sway its heavy
top system, the fact remains that the
feeding roots are near the surface.
1t is this fact that should guide the
orchardist in determining whether
his trees should have clean cultivation
or whether instead there should be
some kind of grass or cover crop
which will keep down the weeds and
render blowing or cultivation unnec-
essary. In determining the kind of
cover crop, if the soil is rich in
humus and heterogeneous substances,
it may be improved by the growing
of blue grass, timothy, or some such
product. But if as is true in most OF
the volcanic ash soils Of the arid and
semi-arid regions of the Northwest,
the soil needs humus and nitrogen,
then nitrogen gathering crop should
be grown and clean cultivation en-

HOW FARMERS CAN SAVE MONEY

By u. d. MaXson, Portland. Ore.
The constant complaint of high cost
of living is not strange when We study
the conditions under which the aver
age farmer markets his products and
buys his machinery.
1t may astonish the farmer to know
that it costs from 10 to Is per cent to
travel statesmen to introduce ma
chinery to him before he buys. This
fact is largely the fault of the farmer
because be depends on his nearest
dealer or a travelling salesman whose
glowing description of the machinery
is about all that he has to depend
upon.
Many of our most enterprising
farmers are great readers and are con-
tinually seeking way to buy ma
chinery and farm supplies cheaper.
They usually resort to attractive
prices offered by large mail order
houses, and give but little attention
to the class of machinery which they
are offered under these attractive
prices.
The average grain grower depends
on a job thresher to save his crop,
and frequently loses same on account
of not getting it threshed at the
proper time, The most practical
thing that farmer, who is a grain
grower, should do is to own his in
dividual threshing outfit with small
gasoline tractor, which can be used
for general work on the farm such as
blowing, saving, pumping, or for
operating feed cutter. These outfits
can be bought at very nominal prices,
but the farmer should always go to
Washington farmer. [volume] (Spokane, Wash.) 1914-1971, 1914-06-15

the city nearest him that carries this
machinery in stock and examine
same carefully before buying. No
farmer would think of buying $1,000
farm without walking over every foot
of it, yet the average farmer will buy
threshing outfit or blowing outfit
relying upon pictured catalog and
the convincing talk of a good sales
man.
Our experience has been that the
average farmer or hortIculturist is
one of the shrewdest buyers in the
country and the hardest to close a
deal with, but he does not usually
know the difference between ma
chinery offered by one concern and
another. We believe that visit to
Portland or the nearest city where
machinery that he expects to buy is
stored would be great educator for
him, besides. ii he can save from 10
to 10 per cent by buying this himself
direct from the manufacturer at their
distributing point instead of having
to pay that amount to be canvassed
in the old manner, he has made one
step further toward economy and
practical buying.
The writer firmly believes that it is
unnecessary to spend so much money
in handling heavy machinery. 1t
may astonish you to know that 10
average machinery statesmen on the
road costs the farmer about S27, 900
each year. Why not save this amount
and combine your business with a
pleasure trip once or twice a year
and be your own travelling salesman.
Tank this over for yourself. II
you do not understand it, write me
for further explanation.

GEESE In THE ORCHARDS

1t has been discovered that geese in
an orchard are useful because they
devour the waste fruits, generally full
of worms and hatcheries for another
generation of pests. This seems to
have been first discovered in Canada
where the wild geese from the lakes
and rivers entering the orchards
cleaned up the waste fruits and it
was found that in these orchards
there were fewer pests than in the
orchards of adjacent communities
where these geese did not enter.
Later the experiment of growing tame
geese in the orchards of Ohio and GER
tain other sections was successful,
not only on account of the work they
did in the orchards but on account
of the profit yielded in the sale of
feathers and meat. Geese are easily
grown, and the young are not nearly
so tender and likely to die as chick
ems. Besides, they yield good profits
and do less damage to trees than
swine, which are often used in the
orchards for the same purpose. How
ever. in the irrigated sections. they
would during the season in which ir-
rigation is practiced, greatly interfere
with the bitches, and would from
this view point, be Objectionable.
In cases where they could be cared
for during the season OF irrigation,
or where irrigation is not practiced,
it seems to the writer that they could
be made useful and profitable.

tirely abandoned.
The principal reason for this is the
fact that the tree roots, 1.-THE feeding
roots are formed near the surface.
The new growth is what is called
s'tibrous roots'' and these fibrous
roots send out multitudes of minute,
uniceIlular projections, known as
root hairs. Put pillow into your or
chard and tear up the soil and there
will be millions of rootlets visible to
the naked eye.
These are not the root hair feeders
but they are the rootlets on which the
feeders grow. These feeders come
into contact with the film of water
which envelops the soil PARTICLES and
with their millions of little mouths,
suck the water with its chemical
combinations and carry it into the
roots where by the process known as
Cosmetic action" it is forced into
the larger roots. following the
cambium layer up into the top, where
it is manufactured into the new wood
growth, leaves and fruits.
How Deep Are the Feeders
In the Ohio Experiment Station, the
roots of peach trees examined showed
that in every case the feeding roots
we're in the first six inches of SOIL
There were bracing roots to a much
greater depth, but these were not
discovered that apple tree roots were
feeding at depth of from onehalf
inch to 36 inches. In fact a few
varieties like the Baldwin had feeders
at the surface. The Northern Spy |
had the deepest feeders with an ex-
treme depth of SO inches. The aver
age depth was %. 16 inches. There
fore to pillow an orchard to depth of
eight inches is to cut off more than
one third of the feeding rootlets and |
in our volcanic ash soils which incline
to puddle. l am persuaded we will
cut off more than half.
Various other stations have expert
mented with the same object in view
as the Ohio Station and have reached |
virtually the same conclusions.
Among the experiments made are
those of the stations of Wisconsin,
Illinois, Arizona and the WOODBURY.

field must realize that only the COM
plete victory Of the Germans over the
Russians can secure the position OF
Germany's future and that peace
treaty otherwise would be scrap OF

the affair which France has forced
upon MS against our wishes will end
favorably for MS and when we will
be in position to concentrate our er-
forts against the Russians. We will
see then whether the English and
French will still have the inclination
to drag on the war In favor of Rus

to ask the French: Have those of you
who have no personal interests in
Russia not paid enough? And then
also England will be askcd-with

might and aggrandizement-if nee

OF beef that would have been priced
in this country at 50 to 40 cents a

That's the best cut of beef IN
