JUSTICE AND LUNCHEON.
They Seemed to Clash a Trifle, So the
Court Made a Change.


1t was formerly the practice of the
supreme court to sit from II noon until
o'clock continuously on each day
that it was in session. From time to
time, as the afternoon progressed. the
justices one or two at a time, would
slip out of their seats, snatch bite Of
luncLeolAnd Eaurn Sometimes as
ma ke of them would be
off 80 - lzzssNe They usually
had their luncheon brought to them by
their messengers and ate it in the little
curtained recess behind the bench, and
as the argument progressed there could
be plainly heard in the courtroom the
clink of knife and fork on plate and
what O. Henry has called the crash
Of dishes on the American plan"
One day a lawyer pleading a case
made bold to enter protest He most
solemnly inquired if he could count
upon the continuous and undivided at
tention of even one justice to the thread
of his argument. The personnel of
the court has been twice entirely
changed since / began" he said plain
lively.
The court deigned no response, but
on the following Monday Il was an
nounced from the bench that q recess
for luncheon thereafter would be taken
every day from to 2:30 o'clock and
that the court would sit until 4:30
o'clock every afternoon. Worlds

shared by many others conversant with

should send a communication to
the person or persons claim

treatise of apple trees TO prevent
wormy fruit. The only preventa-
tive of course is the spray, and
now is the time to spray. Pow
ell should be one of the best fruit
counties in the State, but it can
never grow high class marketa-
bile apples without the spray. 1t
lis time then that some of our en-
,terprising farmers with a large
!orchard should introduce the
spraying of fruit trees. We hope
every reader of this paper will
carefully study this article, and if
they have an orchard of import
ance, let them determine TO take
the advice of the writer, and
spray their trees that they may
ge more and better trult.
