EASY TO GROW STRAWBERRY
Quite Another Thing to Sell Crop
ProfitabIy-Must Be Carefully
Packed in Boxes.

1t is an easy matter to grow crop
of strawberries, but quite another
thing to sell them protitably. Straw
berries, to sell well, must be packed
carefully in boxes and placed on the
market soon thereafter. Few towns
are well equipped with strawberries
during the strawberry season. Any
individual who will plant one to five
acres will find a ready market for
all his product at home. For home
market strawberries should be very
nearly ripe when picked; but for
shipping they should be picked a
little greener. 1t is an easy matter to
pick a small area, but when several
acres have to be picked over every
day it is not easy. Shortage of help
is the main trouble. When picking
for shipping a field should be picked
every day if possible, but for homo
market, to pick over the same ground
every other day is often enough. 1t
is well to see that the boxes are well
filled.

tanned MoIasses and Water.
Waukegan, ILL.,, June 2S.-William
Orpet on Monday told his long-awaited
story Of the peculiar circumstances of
the tragic death of Marian Lambert
the elimination of their puppy love-"
In their rambling walk through
Helms woods ON the morning of Feb
ruary 9 Marian talked almost eXclu-
sively of her alleged delicate condi-
ton, Orpet said. He had brought with
him, he said, a large bottle contain
ing a mixture of IhOlasses and water.
Il would do her no harm and no good,
except what possible solace it might
be to her mental condition. She re-
fused to drink of it and he threw it
away in his panicky flight after she
died. The bottle was found by Ken
neth 3. Hawkins and II. G. Carlin. 1t
was produced in court by Mr.. Hawk
ms. It is the defense's reply to the
states contention that Orpet brought
cyanide of potassium to Helms woods
and induced Marian to take it under
the pretense that it was medicine
which would relieve her.

They also captured the Thiaumont

CHARLES {. HUGHES
National Committee Endorses G.
O. P. Candidate.
ADVISED BY COL. ROOSEVELT
Action Follows Day of Wrangling-
Six Members of Body Refused to
Approve Move-Debate Lasts
Seven Hours.

Chicago, June 28.-After a day of
wrangling the Progressive national
committee voted on Monday to indorse
Charles Evans Hughes for president.
Thirty-twO members of the commit
tee supported the Endorsement resolu-
ton offered by James r. Garfield of
Ohio. Six voted against it and nine
declined to vote.
The action which was taken in ac-
cordance with the wishes of Theodore
Roosevelt, as expressed in a letter to
the committee, marked the demise of
the Progressive party.
While the national executive COM
mittee was instructed to cooperate in
the Hughes campaign it was admitted
the full national committee never
would have another meeting.
The resolution as finally adopted
after seven hours of debate was as
follows:
Whereas, The statement issued by
this committee in January and he
platform adopted by the Progressive
national convention set forth that put
ting aside all partisan considerations
in view Of existing world and national
conditions we would work with any
man or party who saw the nations
need and put forth a leader fit to meet
it and
whereas, We believe with Colonel
Roosevelt that in nominating Charles
e. hughes of New York the Republic
an party has put forth such leader,
we indorse and concur in the recon-
mendation of Colonel Roosevelt that
we support Mr.. Hughes"
The various states and territories
through the committeeman lined up as
follows on the resolution:
Yeas-Alabama Arizona, Arkansas,
California, Colorado, Connecticut, Dis
trict of Columbia, Georgia, Illinois, In
diana, Kansas, Louisiana, Maine,
Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, Ne
braska, Nevada, New Hampshire.

North Carolina, Rhode Island, Utah
TOtal-6.
Declining to vote-FIorida, Massa-
chusetts, Mississippi, Wisconsin, Mis-
souri,, Oklahoma, South Carolina,
Washington, West Virginia-Total 8.
The opponents of the proposal to in
dorse Hughes put up a stubborn fight.
Leaders on this side were Matthew
Hale of Massachusetts, who presided
as vice chairman of the committee in
the absence of Victor Murdoch, the
chairman; Bainridge Colby Of New
York, who held the proxy of the COM
mitteeman from Florida; John M. Par
ker of Louisiana, who was nominated
for vice president by the Progressives
three weeks ago, and Henry Cochems
of Wisconsin.
Mr.. Garfield was the floor leader for
the Hughes forces, George w. Perkins
of New York and Chester Ell. Rowell of
California also urged the Endorsement
of Hughes.
Col. Theodore Roosevelt's message
to the Progressive national committee
was read at a meeting of that body
here. AS was expected, it is declina-
dency, and an earnest appeal to the
Progressives to support the candidacy
of Mr.. Hughes.

TRY SOME SUMMER PRUNING
Practice Tends to Produce Fruit
Spurs by Checking Flow Of Sap
Size of Fruit Increased.

(By E. P. sANDSTEN, Colorado Agricul-
turaI College. Fort Collins, Wyo.)
Summer pruning should be as regu-
larly performed as winter pruning.
After the shape of the tree has been
obtained through winter pruning, the
filling out of the branches and the
trunk should be accomplished by sum-
mer pruning. This is especially true
during the fourth and fifth years after
planting. AS rule, most fruit grow
ers prune their young trees too heav-
lily during these years. Growth be-
comes excessive, especially in length,
and the branches do not become prop
erly braced at the crotches Of the
tree. If summer pruning is done be-
tween the middle and the latter part
of June, when the growth in length
has reached from IL to Is inches, by
cutting off the terminal buds, it will
invariably check the growth in length
and increase the thickness of the
trunk and branches. Further, it tends
to produce fruit spurs by checking the
flow of the sap.
Summer pruning may also be prac-
ticed on older or bearing trees in con-
nection with the thinning of the fruit.
In this case there is very little occa-
sion for cutting and pinching off the
terminal shoots, as older trees make
little or no wood growth. Cutting out
a number of fruit spurs will give
larger food supply for the remaining
ones, and the size of the fruit borne
Is greatly increased.

TIME TO PICK SMALL FRUITS
If Strawberries, Raspberries and
BIackberries Become Overripe
They Become Worthless.

Strawberries, raspberries and black
berries are of very perishable ma
ture. They must be picked when just
right, and if allowed to become over
ripe they become soft and are re-
jected by customers. This is a loss
to the grower.
The strawberry must be reset every
three or four years for the best sue
cess. while the raspberry and black
berry should be reset every five or SIX
years. This always means large
amount of careful and painstaking
work.

If vegetables have burned in the ket-

Sprinkle soda on the grease spots

Soda is good to clean the bowls and
