ment Of Agriculture)
Although the bluebird frequents our
orchards and gardens and builds its
nests in cavities of trees, there seems
to be no evidence that it is a fruit
thief. Neither does the bird seem to
prey upon crops.
The eastern bluebird. one Of the
most familiar and welcome of our
feathered visitors, is a common inhab-
liant of all the states east of the
Rocky Mountains from the Gulf OF
Mexico to southern Canada. In the
Mississippi valley it winters as far
north as southern Illinois, and in the
East as far as Pennsylvania. 1t is one
OF the earliest northern migrants, and
everywhere is hailed as harbinger OF
spring.
1t is evident that In the selection
Of its food the bluebird is governed
more by abundance than by choice
Predaceous beetles are eaten In
spring, as they are among the first in
sects to appear; but in early summer
caterpillars form an important par
of the diet, and these are later replaced

The Gulfiight was laden with naph-
tina from Port. Arthur to Rouen.
The French steamer Europe also
was torpedoed by a submarine and
sunk off the Scilly islands. The sub
marine ordered the crew to take to
the boats, and then fired several
shells into the ship The steamer did
not sink from the effects of these, SC
the submarine launched a torpedo
which sent her to the bottom. The

CELERY FOR SMALL GARDENS

tny Z. N. HENNINaToN.l

Celery is fairly good market crcp,
but there are many other crops that
pay better. In the famous Kalamazoo
district in Michigan, where the crop
is grown exclusively on hundreds of
acres by experts, 1t is stated that the
average profit after rental of land,
growing and marketing expenses are
paid does not exceed 500 per acre. DC
casionally we hear of phenomenal
crop, but as rule celery is only mod

1t is fine crop for every farmer 10
grow because 1t is one of the most de-
licious vegetables produced. 1t is not
difficult to grow celery. 1t requires eX-
ceedingly rich land, some commercial
fertilizer and great care in cultivation
and bleaching.
In the Kalamazoo district, where
very fine celery is grown, the soil is a
very black, rich, spongy sort of loan,
but good celery is grown on sandy land
and on clay loan.
The ground must, however, be put
into thorough cultivation and very

be well fortified for at least two years
before being planted to celery.
To prepare the ground for celery,
rows should be made about four feet
apart, and light application of we'll

potash placed In the burrows.
The plants taken from the seed bed

doubling them up. The soil then must
be drawn firmly about the plants and
all weeds must be kept down.

ITALIANS ARE NOT
READY FOR WAR
DECISION or KING NOT TO AT.
TEND UNWILLING CEREMONY
MAY DELAY ACTION.
Hope Entertained by Pacificists That
Efforts to Arrange Peaceful soIu-
ton of ltaly's Problems May
Prove Successful.

Rome.-The decision of King Victor
Emmanuel and the members of the
ministry not to take part In the cere-
mony of the unwilling of the Garibaldi
monument at Quarto Sant-Elena Is
being commented on as step OF
very great significance.
The presence Of his majesty at the
unwilling had come to be regarded as
tantamount to declaration OF war.
Now the change in the kings plans
is regarded as meaning that the partl'
cipation OF Italy in the European con
tiict again has been postponed.
The hope is being entertained by the
pacifcists that the efforts of Italy to
arrange a peaceful solution of her
problems may ultimately be success
full.
Abandonment of the plan for the
participation OF King Victor EN-
manuel and government officials in
the ceremonies attendant on the un
yelling is believed to have been the
result Of the call made by Prince vor
Buelow, the German ambassador, or
Foreign Minister Sonnino Sunday
night.
The press is unanimous In declaring
the abandonment of the kings trip Il
Quarto has in no way altered the gov
ernment's decisions. A semi-officia
note couched in vague terms says:
"Italy's attitude cannot undergo an!
a
Quarto"
It should be borne in msnd that thu
character of the celebration at Quartz
SAINT Elena is eminently antiAus
trian.

No one has been able to identity the
germ which is the specific cause of

JOHN r. LAWSON CONDEMNED TO
LIFE IMPRISONMENT FOR

Victed Man viii be Released on
Twenty Thousand Dollar Bond
Pending Action on Molten.

Trinidad, Colo.-John r. Lawson,
noted labor leader, on Monday was
condemned to spend the remainder OF
his life at hard labor in the Colorado
penitentiary. He was found guilty Of
first degree murder in connection with
the death OF John Nimmo, deputy
sheriff killed In strike battle october
Is, 1918. Under the Colorado statute
making 1t the duty Of the jury to fix
the penalty at death or life imprison-
ment the jury in the district court
fixed the milder punishment.
Thirty days were given to file a mo-
ton for new trial and Lawson was
released temporarily in custody of his
counsel
Judge Hillyer later announced that
the labor leader would be released on
500, 900 bond pending action on his mo-
ton for new trial, Lawson's former
bond in Las Animas county was $15,-
600. The new bond was arranged for
at a conference between Judge Hillyer
and Horace N. Hawkins, chief counsel
for the defense.
Seated at his lawyers table after
the verdict, John X. Lawson talked
calmly of the outcome Of his fight fol
life and liberty.

said. I'm not worrying about my
self-its the fight have been making

GERMANS DEFEAT
RUSSIAN FORCES
EMPEROR WILLIAMS FORCES
SAID TO HAVE CAPTURED
10000 RUSSIANS.
Cars Forces Get Partial Revenge by
Badly Beating Turks Who In
vaded Persia In Battle Last
Ing Three Days.

The Russians have had at least par
sial revenge for the defeat inflicted
upon them in western Galicia by the
Austrians and Germans by badly beat
ing the Turks who had invaded Per-
STA. The defeat took place in a three
days battle near the frontier, and
Petrograd reports that the Russians
inflicted heavy losses on the Otto
mans. If the success of the Musco-
vites has been followed up, military
observers declare that Persia now
should be free OF her unlimited guests.
This battle, however, was small
affair when compared with what Ger
many and Austria claim they have
done to the Russians in Galicia. Their
reports state that some 10000 Rus.
slams were captured and that large
number of guns were taken. There
was no mention, however, of any
towns, such as Gorlice and Tarnow,
which were close to the front, being
captured, which leads the British mil
itary critics to the conclusion that
while the Germanic allies have won

back Should they succeed in doing
this, however, it is asserted that a
general retreat Of the Russians would
be imperative, and that the whole Car.
pathian offensive on which the Mus.
eovites have spent SO much time and
SO many lives would be completely
nullified.
The Russian side of the story is
anxiously awaited, for big success in
the east, it is believed here, would
mean an immediate commencement oil
operations on a large scale in the
west, for which the Germans already
are making preparations
In Belgium thus far the lighting has
been confined to the Ypres region
where the Germans claim to have cap
tured some villages which the British
say they evacuated in the process Of
readjusting their lines.

to Germany or Austria, and has SCI
forth its position in the lengthy dip

Fine Of $500 Imposed on Former
Food Inspector Of Idaho.

Boise, Idaho.-All cases against
James H. Wallis, former state dairy,
food and sanitary inspector of the
state of Idaho were disposed of Tues
day in the district court by the de-
PENDANT entering a technical plea
of guilty to one case, in which it was
charged that Mr.. Wallis certified to a
pay roll for full months pay to a
deputy, who was then working in an
other part of the state and who had
only worked part of the month, which
MIR. Wallis at the time of the certif-
cate did not know, he claimed, but
signed the certificate in ordinary
course. The other cases were dis
missed. A fine of $500 was imposed
upon the plea, which was paid.
Mr. Wallis stated that he adopted
this course rather than submit him
self to the great expense of defending
the several cases.

OWN REGISTERED LIVE STOCK
Practical Knowledge Of Business
should be Obtained Before start
ing With Pure-Breds.

The desire to own registered stock
is praiseworthy, but until man is
well fitted by experience and inclina-
ton to handle registered stock he will
find it better to go cautiously until he
has gained a practical knowledge OF
the business.
There is no mystery regarding the
breeding and management Of pure
bred stock, still they require mate.
rally different treatment than is usu-
ally afforded the common scrub stock,
These improved animals do not re-
quire pampering or babying. but they
do require good care and enough to
eat and that they cannot obtain when
wintered around straw stacks and
fence corners.
The farmer who has made good
success with grade herd or flock will
not find the transition to pure breds
very difficult. II man knows abso-
lutely nothing about breeding regis
tered stock he will do well to gain
the necessary experience by grading
up his scrub animals before he invests
in pure-bred stock. At least he should
gain the actual experience in some
way before he makes the plunge.
There are many men who buy pure
bred stock who should never be in
the business and the result Is that
their stock is a byword and de-
rision-a very disgrace to the name
pure-bred. Some men have jumped
suddenly into fame by breeding i'm
proved live stock, but usually we will
find that these men gained practical
knowledge of the science Of breeding
while handling their grade animals,
that made their success possible.
