we may be prepared to enter the intense

Webber admitted TO him he had COM

gave against the policeman. Mr..
Marshall has kept silent two years,
but on the eve of the execution of
the policeman he has spoken, and he
has thus thrown bomb that has
startled all those connected with the
case For, unlike many lawyers prae-

able attorney OF fine standing.

the movement Of wheat will be sensa-

no sales Of wheat reported here today
but at the seaboard the transactions
We're placed at 100000 bushels, all

Professionals in wheat are very
bearish and are selling the deferred
futures and foreign prices downward.

There was a lot of short selling to-
day and in case these spectators at

have again advanced prices.
Declines of 3-S to rs cents were
made in corn and the undercurrent
was weak with the exception of little
strength shown early. The market was
on the down grade, the rallies being
feeble and unsustained. Cash sales
here were $4,000 bushels.
Oats were Ia to 5-S cents lower in
sympathy with the break m the other
grains, Strength was shown early but
the offerings increased and the mar

There was big trade in heavy ribs

THE APPLE
EXHIBITS FOR FAIR
Then Clean Up the Orchard After
Picking Clean and Getting Rid CT
Rotten Apples, Broken Limbs and
Trash.

Choose only perfect specimens for
fair exhibit Any judge Of fruit is
justified In assuming that IL plate
Of apples shows one imperfect one, the
exhibitor could not find enough per-
feet ones in his orchard to make
complete plate. Apples for exhibit
should be saved out at picking time.
A good plate Of fruit is uniform ir.
size, in color: is not too large; is not
too highly colored for the variety, and
shows absolutely no blemish due to
insects or disease.
A good box of fruit Is made of the
best possible specimens, as nearly alb
solutely uniform In size and color as
they can be.
1t Is packed by the methods which
follow the rules of the fair at which
It rs exhibited. 1t Is just as good in
side clear to the bottom as it is ON
top.
After picking an orchard clean, 1t
should be put in shape for winter be-
fore It is left.
Get rid of all mummies, rotten ap-
pies and broken limbs that were dam
aged during picking. Clean the fence
rows of weeds. If the orchard is to
DO sown to a winter cover crop, see
that the crop is planted we'll up I'M
der the trees and we'll out to the fences,
and in the corners.
A good way to get rid of rotten ap-
pies and mummies, il there are many
of them, is pillow a furrow, one round
to each middle. turning the furrow
away from the tree. Rake the num-
mics and rotten apples In and throw
the furrow back on them.-J. Lee
