"Dont's" in the Hog Business.

The following are some "don'ts'
learned in the hog business:
Don't try to raise hogs without good
warm quarters; build the house first.
Don't keep the hogs shut up in a small
pen; they are the cleanest animals on the
ranch II given a hcance to be.
Don't change a sow's nesting place at
narrowing time; if she Is in a straw stack,
leave her there until the pigs can walk
home. Be sure, of course, that she is
well fed and warm.
Don't keep a fat hog after he is fat.
az he won't take a second growth. You
will waste feed for nothing.
Don't feed hogs from a sack; always
use a pail, and be sure to rattle the pail;
they will soon learn what it means.
Don't drive hogs; call them. One man
can call 20 hogs where 20 men cannot
drive one hog.
Don't engage in this business just for
the dollars and cents. ii you don't like
hogs, raise sheep.

Strange Travelling Methods of Seeds

GONE seeds make journeys with wings,
and Others travel from place to place
by attaching themselves to the
clothes of men or the hair of animals;
still Others make their journey In the
st0maehs of birds. These are facts that
will interest the young people who are
taking an interest in agriculture and are
working in a garden at home or at school.
According to the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture's specialist, the seed
as the starting point in a life cycle of a
plant may well be studied first by young
gardeners.
The seeds of the maple tree are particu-
larry Interesting. They are provided with
wings, and when they become detached
from the parent tree a gentle breeze will
the branch to which they were attached.
There are many forms and notifications
of the winged seed, as the linden, the
hornbeam, the elm, and the pine. These
are all common trees from which seeds
for illustrative purposes can be secured.
Some seeds are also provided with
parachutes or umbrellas, not for protec-
tion from rain and storm. but for purposes
of locOmotion. The seeds of the thistle,
the milkweed, and the dandelion-in fact,
the seeds of all plants which have a cot
tony growth-are provided for these
aerial Journeys.
Besides these, some seeds are provided
with hooked ~appendages by which they
can attach themselves to the clothing OF
men or to the hair of animals, SO that

Manufacture of juices out of the cram
berries raised In the marshes on North
Beach, Wash, may 500 become a fact.
according to II. II. Tinker, cranberry
dealer of Long Beach.
II look to the cranberry as a means of
making North Beach famous" said Mr.,
Tinker. ALREADY hundreds OF acres OF
bog land have been cleared and set to
berries. The yield Is profitable and al
though the initial cost is somewhat steep,
when once the vines are in bearing the
returns are reasonably certain and the
income per acre is most satisfactory. Max
ing juices from the cranberry will no
doubt become a new industry in the near
future. Experts who have tested the
fruit, pronounce its quality excellent for
this purpose. The commercial ~possibiii-
ties of the cranberry, which are already
assuming significant Importance, are an
inviting field for investors. Hundreds of
persons are given employment on the
marshes annually at the present time"
The gazette-times. [volume] (Heppner, Or.) 1912-1925, 1915-05-06

they become transported from place to
place. Other seeds. have hard seed coats.
or shells, which are covered in many cases
by edible fruit. The fruits are eaten by
birds, but the seeds are not digested, and
in this way become distributed from place
to place.
The groves of cedars which are charac-
t~eristie of the landscape in many sections
of the country, it will be noted are chiefly
placed along the lines OF fences or fence
rows. The fruit of the cedar is an edible
one, but the seed Is not digestible, and
in this way the existence of these hedge
rows of cedars is explained. Cherries,
grapes, and other fruits are to a consid-
cradle extent disseminated In like
ner.
The hard nuts of our nut-bearing trees
are not used as food by birds or large
animals, but are usually sought by SOUR
rels and small rodents. which are in the
habit of gathering and burying them In
various places or storing them in large
quantities for Winter use. The result Is
that a considerable percentage of those
which are buried In this are never
rediscovered by those hiding them, and
In time Nature causes the hard shell to
crack open, and the warmth and moisture
Of the soil brings the germ contained in
the kernel into life and a tree springs into
existence.
II will be noted that the nuts which
were buried by the squirrels did not germ
mate Immediately after being buried, but
waited until the warm weather of the
Spring came before they put forth their
tender shoots. This is not because they
willed 1t. but because the hard outer walls
Of the shell would not admit the air and
water to the germ, 30 as to stimulate its
growth.
It was necessary that the shell be frozen
and broken by the action OF the ff0sts
and the weather before moisture could
gain an entrance to cause the swelling OF
the germ. This popularity, when taken
advantage of commercially. is called
qualification. Seeds with hard shells,
such rs cherries, peaches. plunls and the
like, have to be stratified-that is. they
must be planted in the Fall where the
plants are to grow or they must be packed
away in boxes OF sand in a position where
they will freeze and remain frozen during
the Winter. in order that they mas germ

the cold, and no plants will result from
planting them in the Autumn.
Such seeds must, from the nature OF the

DYNAMITE WRECKED
 TIMES BUILDING, SAY
 EXPLOSIVE EXPERTS

Los Angeles, November 1.-Two ex- perts on explosives testified today at the murder trial of Matthew A. Schmidt that dynamite caused the ex plcsion that wrecked the Los Angeles Times building five years ago and caused the loss of 20 lives They were Frank Garbutt, who said he had used explosives in mining for S5 years, and Julius Koebig, mining engineer.
 Both the prosecution and defense claimed to have won an important point when there was introduced in evidence a steel beam which had been subjected to a test similar to that supposed to have been undergone by beam in the building
 Garbutt testified that a steel beam of the same kind and size as one taken from the~ruins had been placed across an excavation, that the equiva- lent of 20 pounds of nitrogelatin, the explosive believed to have been used in the Times building, was placed on top of it and exploded. Garbutt testi- fled that the explosion made break in the beam almost exactly the same as was in the one taken from the build ing.
 Job Hartman of counsel for the de- fense attempted to show by questions propounded to Garbutt that the breaks were entirely different. When asked by Judge Frank R. Willis what his ob- ject was in asking the questions, MT. Hartman replied:
 Our theory is that this explosion was caused by gas and not by dyna- mite. and we want to show 1t by this witness

New Decatur, November 17.-(Special.) That the Jackson highway would be 8 miles shorter if routed from Nashville to Birmingham via the Decaturs than if routed via Huntsville is the information contained in a map drawn by w. 4.

McCalla's map shows, however, that the Mississippi route. via Florence, is 64 miles shorter than the route via the Decaturs. His figures are:
 The Decaturs route. 5S5 miles.
 The Mississippi route, 531 miles.
 Nashville to Birmingham:
 Via Huntsville, 227 miles.
 Via the Decaturs, 1S8 miles.

COLUMBUS, MISS.

Columbus. Miss. November 17.-(Spe- cial.)--Thsee out of four pistol shots which K. J. Alexander, prominent citi- zen of Monroe county fired at c. c. Day, a local timber broker. last night struck the front of Shapiras shoe store and materially damaged a door and two plate glass windows The shooting oc- cured on South Market street, at point just opposite the shoe store. and not a single shot struck Day. The shots are said to have been fired by Alexander after Day had struck him, in dispute concerning a timber deal
 Subsequent to the trouble both men were taken to the city hall and placed under bond in the sum of 5000 each to keep the peace for one year.
 Wednesday was clean-up day in Colum- bus, and under the direction of the Ladies' Civic league, the city was given a thorough titivation. Mrs. Louise IT. Landrum was at the head of the com mittee having the work in charge, and not only were all the nun bipal wagons and carts turned over to the ladies for the day. but quite a number of local manufacturers and wholesale merchants sent teams to help along with the work. Garbage and other refuse matter were collected by householders and later taken by these teams to the municipal crema- tory for incineration.

greatest attainment of the human voice. This programme offers groups well into the modern period, though the Haydn and Mozart numbers stand between the archaic antique and the full bloomed modern song writer. Of course the Bach Gornod piece is purely modern in spite of the adaptation of the Bach Prelude" for Gounod's audacious pretention.
 This in itself is a curio, illustrative of the instrumental throughness of old Johann Sebastian, a century before the great 'lieder'' composers came with their high power achievements in pure mus~, and which afforded modern opera com poser medium wherewith to say his Ave Maria
 How nearly Gounods melody is uttered in the spirit of Bach's own ecclesiastical soul, I leave others to judge. Anyway there are a lot of people who know Johann Sebastian only through Gounod.
 It would seem, though, if 1t is conven- tional to complain-that Robert Schumann so far surpasses all other composers of song on this programme as to warrant more space for himself at least two se- lections, if not three or more, Just in sheer justice to merit. charm art, great ness and everything else worthy in music. However. this is not study programme, and who shall have a right to complain? The already immortalized selection from Anton Dvorak "Als die alte mutter'' almost takes the place of another Schu- mann number, anyway.
 As for the balance, am sure the music students will find technical the enoownents of the compositions quite equal to the capacity, both of the voice and it's accompanying instrument.
