 Brush and straw piles that will be in the way during the farming season should be hauled away and used to stop soil washing. Everyone has seen enormous gullies cut in single sea son and years spent in trying to undo the mischiet, but few realize that sheet washing is gradually taking away the best surface soil of our fields 10 such an extent that soil wash ing is the greatest single source of loss on many of our farms. The less busy winter time should be used in active work to stop this loss and in planning next seasons field work so that the fields will be planted and cul- tivated across the slope or around the hill, so that the rows will not run straight down in such a way as to fur nish the steepest possible channel for 1 the run-Off from rains. Those who have such winter cover crops as rye to hold the soil i'll place are fortunate, but those who do not should not fiat ter themselves that no washing is go- ing on even in the winter time when thnse is less rainfall.
 Small gullies that have just started 1 in cornfield or wheat fields or even i'll pastures and meadows may often be
Pine Bluff daily graphic., 1916-04-23

stopped with little straw Even cat. tie paths in pastures often deepen so that they need such treatment. In oth- CT places it is necessary to plan to SOW sorghum to stop washing, but if the gullies are more than a foot deep and two or three feet wide it is usual ly better to use brush, concrete dams, or .he sewer system, which has given good results under certain circum- stances.
 The brush dam gives better results if, straw is mixed with the brush to help hold the dirt. Wherever the fall is great enough to make the water cut seriously it is likely to be necessary to stake down tie brush and straw so that they will not be washed away.
 For deep narrow gullies concrete dams from 6 to 12 inches thick will give better results. Iron rods to give weight must be used in re-enforcing the larger dams, but heavy wires will do very well in the smaller ones. The middle should always be left lower than the edges and the supply way should be provided with a concrete, stone or brick apron at the bottom of the gulley to prevent the falling water from cutting into the soil and under mining the dam.

Healthy Young Brood Sows.

She should have strong, straight legs, deep and wide chest, wide back and good length and depth of body. A deep, wide chest is mark of good constitution. and long. deep body generally goes with proliticacy. An SOW is good width of hips and hind quarters.
 In choosing SOW for breeding pur. poses look for the good breeding char acteristics ahead of everything else. Quality may be considered, but pay more attention to usefulness than to fancy points"

SELECTING A BREEDING SOW
Some Good Points to Look For in Pick. ing Out Good Pig Producer-Look
 for Usefulness.

In selecting breeding sows, the prin- cipal thing is to get good swine. It pays a beginner better to invest in two or three good sows than in a much larger number of ordinary ones. This is the advice that the live stock eX- perts of Clemson college are giving pointers on making start with hogs.
 In selecting a SOW there are certain sex characteristics to look for. She should not have any appearance of coarseness. The head should be light CT, forehead higher and neck simmer and heater than those of the boar.

Caruso Eats PruneS---
Nothing Like Prunes For
The Voice, Says He

1t is not expected, however, that all
of those who have eaten prunes in the
past may read this and then become
expert singers. To get the best results
from prunes in voice culture they must
be eaten with a purpose, as Caruso did.
However good prunes are for voice cul.
ture they also serve as an excellent
filling for an empty stomach and Ore
gon people do not really appreciate the
worth of the fruit because it is so com
mon in this vicinity. That dried prunes
are a luxury mother countries as in.
dicated by the prices that are secured
for the fancy packed product and the
Oregon prune is gaining world wide
reputation. Since the improvements in
methods of handling the dried product
have made such strides within the last
decade there is no fear that the future
output of the prune packers will main
tain the enviable reputation already
gained.

Priest Walked In
Face Of Death Through
"NO Mans Land
BY Wilbur S. Forrest.

Omitted Press staff c0rrespondent)
London, Jan. 6.-(By mail. .)-How n
Roman Catholic priest braved death in
No Man s Land to learn tde fate Of
some Of his comrades in the British
trenches, is a story just received from
Northern France. 1t was in one of
the first line trenches, on one of the
darkest. foggest nights recently that
eipht British bombers of a famous regi'
ment crawled over the parapet nd dis
appeared in toward the enemy trench
es. Dawn broke and they mad not lp-
peared. As the day advanced, it was
decided as definitely certin that the
bombers were either prisoners or lying
dead in the muddy expanse that sep
arated the opposing strongholds En-.
emy snipers were busy and it was al
most certain death to expose one s self
in order to have look.
Father --, attached to the regi.
mont, came sauntering along the firing
line. He heard the story and volunteer
cd to try and find the soldiers. Re
left the trench and returned garbed in
his surplice, crucifix in hand. With
out hesitation he climbed out Of the
trench and walked fearlessly but slow
ly toward the German lines. Men
watched him breathlessly through their
poriscopes, expecting to see him snot
down at every step. Not shot came
from the enemy side. AS he reached the
enemy wire entanglements, tho priest
was seen to stop and kneel in prayer
He remained thus FOR some minutes
then arose and walked until he was
lost TO view from the British side. Lat
or he was rediscovered walking slowly
back toward the British trench. Ht
arrived safely and exhibited four iden
tity discs, explaining, also, that the
Germans had held up four khaki caps
on their bayonets. The mystery was
solved, four of the bombers were pris
oners, the others dead.

Electric Light Company
Has Installed Lights
For Coasters Benefit

As contribution to the "Safcty
First" movement and to the enjoyment
Of the coasters on the Lincoln street
hill, the Portland Railway Light &
Power company have installed at their
own expense, two additional arc lamps
on Lincoln street, one at Fir street,
and the other at Saginaw street.
This will make an arc light at each
Of the four cross-streets from the top
of the hill to the bottom and with the
snow on the ground, the street will be
brightly lighted.
II Is the hope Of the management
Of the company that by donating this
lighting service 10 the coasters, that
the danger Of loss Of life or limb may
be reduced to the minimum, and that
the pleasure of the coasters may be in.
creased during the short period that
coasting may be enjoyed before the
snow Is gone.
The Management Of the company Is
deserving Of the thanks Of the com.
munity, for providing this means Of
guarding against accidents.

The lowly dried prunc has come into
its own with a vengeance and on long
er will the regular boarders groan when
the waitress announces the well known
formula, "We II have dried prunes for
desert".
Listen, Caruso eats them. Enrico Ca
russo, the singer, whose salary is so
large that he can count only his income
tax, This is no press agent story for
CarusO is national figure like Presi-
dent Wilson, Henry Ford and the
statue of liberty.
A clipping from an eastern paper was
received by Manager Robert Paulus OF
the Salem Fruit union which stated that
Caruso entered the hotel Waldorf AS
toria with his secretary and two
friends. As he made his way to the
rose room he was recognized instantly
by the head waiter who hurried to serve
The noted tenor. Culuso ordered the
dish which made the house famous in
n minute and immortalized the dried
prune.
1It is for the voice., he explained,
in answer to the waters stare OF
wonderment.
"Wait, bring me two portions, there
is nothing like prunes for the voice
Next Monday I sing in recital and l.
must prepare.
Others at luncheon overheard the con
versation and the Waldorf sold more
prunes than ever in lie history. -.
OF course Caruso has an advantage
over many other habitual eaters in that
he has a better voice to begin with
than many will attain even though they
remain full of prunes most of the time
but prunes as an element Of voice cul-
ture opens new market. Every one
who would cultivate his voice and tame
. it down so that it might be introduced
into polite society with impunity must
apply himself faithfully to his lessons
even though the Fifteenth Episode Of
"The Adventures of Jack Dalton J" be
flickering on the screen at the precise
moment when he is endeavoring to sing
"a" natural without melting riot
call.
Now with prunes as culturant all
of the agony of lesson is eliminated.
Your singing lesson may be taken with
your meals. Time and money saved by
prune culture would amount to millions.

PEACE DEPENDS ON
Old PARTY LEADERS
If Republican Party NOmin-
ates Roosevelt Harm
Ony Is Assured

Chicago, Jan. 13.-Peace between the
republicans and bull moosers rests upon
the G. O. p, George W. Perkins frankly
stated today following yesterdays bull
moose vote to hold a convention June
7, at the same time that the republicans
do, and if possible to unite "on the
same standard bearer and the same
principles "
Only little coaXing, leaders de-
clared, is necessary to bring the bull
moose into the fold for double har-
ness race with the G 0. p, elephant
against the democratic donkey.
Perkins and others are hopeful that
Colonel Roosevelt will be the chosen
standard bearer of the two parties, but
they are not certain Of this result. Who
is desired for second choice has not been
indicated. Justice Hughes Of theUnited
States supreme court is strong with
progressives in the cast and west, but
nine out Of ten Of the progressive com.
mitteemen whose session adjourned yes
terday. believed Roosevelt will be the
republican, and hence, the progressive
nominee.
Medill Mccormick, who recently an.
nounced his transfer Of allegiance from
the bull moose to the republican party,
win be one Of the principal intermedio-
ries in the proposed compromise be.
tween the two parties.
But despite the virtual agreement Of
the committeeman to combine on ma
tional issues, there will be several hot
state fights before local amalgama.
tions occur. Missouri has already an
nounced that she will have q progress.
i've state ticket, while Pacific coast
representatives are hopeful Of continu.
ing the progressive party as n separate
entiety, regardless Of national events.
Further evidence Of the lineup in
next summers campaign came last
night with announcement Of the pro-
gressives declaration Of principles. In
this, they took sharp whack at Presi.
dent Wilson'S foreign policy, and de-
clared for n national preparedness in
both military and industrial sense.
"Because Of the failure Of the Will
son administration to deal adequately
with national honor and industrial wei
fare,u said the declaration, "this
country faces problems Of a greater and
more far reaching consequence than any
since the civil war"
Then, again, the statement declared
"The Wilson administration has re-
pudiated the faith Of our forefathers
which made the American flag the suf
ficient protection Of an American citi
zen around the world, II has suffered
American men, women and children Ia
be slaughtered in Mexico and on the
high seas, American property to be
destroyed and American liberty to tray
el and trade subject TO the arbitrary
and lawless coercion Of foreignbeliger
ants. II, first among Amcri
can administrations has shown the su
rine spirit, whose sure consequence Il
the contempt Of the world"
