them to another location, and asking
my opinion relative to the questions
in your letter.
Replying 10 your questions l beg to
say:
1t will be unlawful for you to have
such stock ia West Virginia, for the
purposes named in your letter after
MIDNIGHT OF June 80, 1914. It may be
true that you are not keeping these
liquors in West Virginia for sale in
West Virginia, but you are keeping
and storing them in West Virginia
for the purpose Of taking them TO
Me- ryland and then selling them. In
other words. you are keeping and stor-
ing in West Virginia liquors for sale
true, not in West Virginia, as yoI
Say, but nevertheless you are storing
them in West Virginia for the pur-
pose of ultimately making sale. The
statute not only forbids -the sale Of
Intoxicating liquors in West Virginia
for sale either in the state o. out Of
the state Therefore, there is only
one safe thing for you to do, and that
is. to get YOUR liquors out Of the state

Popular FaI!acy is Shattered
by the Noted Actor, James
K. HaCkett.

There is a popular fallacy that a
book cannot be dramatized but from
the standpoint of an actor who has to
endure both dramatic novels and the
play which is noyeliZed, l must say
that none of the aesthetic value ana
consistency is lost in the transition
from the novel in the easy chair to
The play n the theater," smilingiy said
James X. Hackett in an interview.
Ir. Hackett is playing The Grain Of
Dust which Louis Evan Shipman,
Harvard, '93, dramatized from novel
Of that title, at the Robinson Grand
theater here.

Where? Well, in his life there are
Incidents; he sees episodes, he re

a friends tragedy grips him strongly

play comes with obedience to tech

seems to me that the author Of the
dramatized play finds his incidents
in the book, and more-he catches the
spirit of the book. He takes the
foundation as properly as the first
playwright. and with the same force
OF genius evolves as great a play.
Ito be sure. the hook and the PLAY
are two separate entities. The drama
cannot directly enter the field Of
prose fiction and prose fiction cannot
abruptly be thrust into the drama.
The spirit of a story. the telling OF q

Lonishing. II has caused n,uch- com
ment and aroused great deal o. Gu
riosity US to what is back of the ap-
parent break in the old relationship.
Referring to the question OF the
free passage of American ships
through the Panama canal, the Assoc
lated Press sent out q telegram from
washington, which was printed on
the first page OF the Charleston Ga
zette OF Sunday, February s, under
large and conspicuous heading, IN
which referenme was made 10 bill
to be introduced IN accordance with
the determination of President VIII
son that the United States should
recognize the claim of Great Britain
that exemption for American ships Is
IN violation of the Hay-Pauncefote
treaty" In the next issue OF the
Charleston Gazette, on Tuesday, Feb
ruary 10, that paper voiced its Senti-
ments in opposition to those OF the
president and did so IN very strong
language. The voters Of the coun-
fry., it said, at the election of 1872
endorsed the free toll plank in OH
platform and they believed the Demo
cratic party would keep faith with
them upon this as well as all other
pledges. NO CONSaIGly ShNdS@5 tAAAA ~

tho Gazette continued, saying We
have confidence enough in the leaders
IN other branches of Congress to be
lieye that they will not be influenced
by any puerile excuses or specious
arguments to. disregard the platform
on the question of canal tolls"
There can be no misunderstanding
as to the meaning OF these words. The
position of Senator Chilton's pape,
IS clear. 1t differs from the president
on the question Of tolls and does 50
with such vigor as TO leave no doubt
as TO where it stands or what il thinks
OF those who may oppose It's views
But there are many who can not eN-
plain the sudden change OF front Of
one vino has hitherto been such

horses have access 10 a shed that thty

LESS DANGER FROM DISEASE
Weeds and Trash Removed From
Roads Tends TO sweeten Ground and
Eliminate stsgnsnt Pools.

A powerful argument In favor OF
good roads is the fact that they make
for the better health OF the community.
Weeds and trash have no place in the
good road scheme. and their removal
means a free airing and sweeteninR OF
the ground where stagnant water may
have been in the habit OF standing.
and consequent elimination OF breed.
ing places for flies and mosquitoes
This means far less danger from con-
tagious diseases.
Then there is the question OF dust.
A well surfaced road gives a minimum
OF dust 70 the air, and much danger
from infection is thus saved. II the
surface is oiled in the bargain, this
danger is almost entirely negligible.
Good roads mean dry feet and free
dom from the colds which are caused
by wet shoes. especially in the case OF
school children and others who are
compelled to pass on foot And last,
but not least, the example OF a clean.
well.kept roadside is an encourage
ment to the owners OF farms lying
along II to clean up things and take a
part in the general progress. Good
roads have financial value hardly to
be measured. bit their sanitary value

considered.

WHERE DOES A PLANT FEED7
Need 10 Emphasizes o. Having Sell
Compact Enough That Moisture
Can Readily Pass Through.

tBy ". r. PALMER. Agricultural Ell
tor. North Dakota Agricultural COL
irFeD
The first thing 70 know in growing
q crop is where does IL feed II the
crop 10 70 be q success II must be
given the conditions that II needs.
The plant nUst have food. water. air
In soil, warmth and sunshine The
warmth is IA a measure secured by
growing the crop In a warm season
The sunshine is secured by keeping
down weeds and not planting too
thickly.
The problem left then is 10 secure
food, water and air in soil These
must be where the plant does its feed.
Ing. and that IL done principally in the
soil turned with the plow. The proof
OF this can be seen In any field. Note
the smaller growth Of the crop IN the
dead funow Whether Il be grain.
legume. grass or cultivated crop. the
smallest plants will be found in the
dead furrow. Why smaller Because
the plants here had less plowed soil 20
grow in. The subsoil. while IL con
tains the moisture does not contain
a Eufficiency OF air and hsmus 20 sup
port the germs and 10 bring about the
chemical action that makes plant food
available. Thus the plant food in the
subsoil is only partially available.
This emphasizes the need OF the
plowed soil being deep and that II con
tain plenty Of humus which is directly
concerned IN the plant food beng
made available as well as In holding
moisture and In binding the soil
grains together to prevent drifting.
While the plowed soil is wanted
deep yet # should be fairly compact
The plant cannot feed in a soil that is
too loose nor will the moisture move
upward freely enough IL the soil is
too loose. The available plant food
being in the plowed soil. that Is where
the moisture is needed This empha-
sizes the need OF having the soil com.
pact enough that the moisture can
readily pass from the subsoil into the
plowed soil u the plowed soil is OF
the same compactness clear 10 the
surface then the moisture will pass
TO the surface and escape. This up
ward passage must be cut on. The
way TO do this is to loosen up a layer
OF a couple OF inches on the surface.
The plowed soil. compact below and
loose on top. will keep the largest
amount Of moisture in the place where
the plant feeds.

How to Apply Water.

In dry time plants must either be
drenched or left alone. A little sur

to feed nearer the surface and they

more good than anything but generous
and continued watering. For single
plants old tin cans with perforated
bottoms may be set half their height
