CALEDONIA

In the death Of Mr.. E. NJ. Cain
which occurred at the Columbus Hos
pital Monday, October 25th. The
Caledonia section suffered the loss OF
one of its best citizens. Mr.. Cain was
member of the county's Oldest and
himself a gentleman, compansionable
himself gentleman, compansionable
and enterprising. He lived to a ripe
old age. He was born in 1851. And
was the father Of twelve children,
six of whom proceeded their father to
the silent city Of the dead. He leaves
"a devoted wife and six children to
mourn his loss.
The membership Of his friends was
limited only by the number who knew
him. for he embodied In his makeup
those qualities Of mind and heart
which naturally drew others to him.
He was always true to friend, and
never lost an opportunity to relieve
distress or suffering wherever found.
The night was never too dark nor
the way too long for him to go to a
friend who needed his service. He was
a loving father and husband. He
lived for his wife and children and
as nearly as possible anticipated
their every wish. He always thought
of them before himself, and to minis
ter to their comfort and happiness
was his constant delight, he neglected
no opportunity in his endeavor to
make home pleasant. His body was
tenderly laid to rest Tuesday in the
Rowan cemetery in the presence Of a
host of sorrowing friends and relat-
ives. He was buried with Masonic
honors, having been a member of this
order for long number of years. The
funeral services was conducted by
Rev. I. Z. Gregory, of the Methodist
Church. The following members of
the Masonic order acted as pallbear-
ers:- E. O. Harper, N. NJ. Andrews,
]. w. Hunter, j. M. Goolsby, S. w.
Stanley, T. J. Smith.
The Mayor of Caledonia, Mr.. G. w.
Myers, is the champion sweet potato
raiser of this section. He made 200
bushels of extra fna potatoes on a
half acre Of land that has been in
cultivation for over 80 years. This is
truly day Of big things, men talk
of and deal in numbers, such as were
found only in test problems for the
advanced class in arithematic, when
the writer and the mayor were school
boys in the year 1866 at the old fine
long school house, taught by Mr.. r. j.
Web, who was 6S years old, he used
the old blue back spelling book. AT
that time 200 bushels of potatoes
made on three acres of land was con-
sidered big crop, and bale of cot
ton to every '4or 5 acres was among
the big things, However, old things
have passed away. And today we
use large numbers when we speak of
crops, fine houses and well improved
farms, bank stock, big ships built,
government highways, big schools,
such as the world never, never knew
before. And in fact that man Guilt
ven was simply a prophet when he
wrote of his travels among the
giants Of the long time ago.

II may be that the wages paid to
school teachers have been terribly
inadequate. still the fact remains
that many Of our best professional
men have made their way through
college on their savings as teachers
when the teachers wage would av-
erage less than 25 per cent OF what
II IL today. Experience in the teach
er has not been regarded as highly
as II should have been. The teacher
that was so good you could hardly
replace him has been paid but little
more than the one that can Just get
by. There was but little incentive.
aside from love Of the work for a
man to prepare for teaching as
life work. It has too often been re-
garded as only a stepping stone to
other professions The wages for in
experienced teachers will not in
crease much beyond the present scale
but the man or woman who makes
II q life work and prepares for II can
hardly be paid too much.

BEST TIME TO PRUNE
TRANSPLANTED TREES
Eany Spring Has Been Most
Generally Recommended.
Fear Has Dssn Expressed That
Dranehss cul Back In Fall VIII
Not Dry Out suf'cIentiy-Rs-
suIts Of Missouri etatlon.

The time to prune transplanted
trees. and young trees not to be trans
planted, has been much disguised.
Early spring has been most generally
recommended. It Is the usual custom
to prune back the branches Of young
trees when they are transplanted.
Some writer's have recommended de-
laying pruning back fall transplanted
trees until spring. The precaution Of
ten urged against cutting back the
branches In the fall Is that the tree
loses too much moisture through the
cut surfaces Of the twigs. Fear has
been expressed that the cut-back
branches will dry out sufficiently to
kill back badly during winter. The
question naturally arises as to whether
more water will be lost through the
wounds Of the cut twigs than would
be transpired from the branches were
they left intact.
In order to answer this question for
Missouri conditions, which are more
or less typical Of the central states.
general observations have been made
on young trees pruned at different sea.
sons at the University Of Missouri
College of Agriculture In the last
twenty years. The results uniformly
indicate that better growth results II
the branches are cut back In the fall
This holds true for young trees gener
ally. whether they are transplanted 10
the fall or spring or are not trans
planted.
The same observations are true Of
grapes. A skill1nl grape propagation
and grower at Hermann. Mo-. has found
that grapes make better growth II
pruned back In the fall. This grower
sets his cuttings In autumn as soon
a. the vines shed their leaves and
thereby successfully roots Norton
Cynthiana and other varieties found Il
root with difficulty II the cuttings arr
made and set In early spring. HI
further says that one-year-old grapes
designed to stand q second year In tho
nursery. make much better growth II
pruned back In the fall; also that
bearing grape vines make stronger
growth II pruned In autumn as soon
as their leaves are shed. This is par.
ticularly true Of varieties that tend to
make poor renewal growth from the
lower spurs.
That the water content OF young
apple trees 10 not greatly affected by
fall pruning was established by ex.
periments In 1900 and 1901 at the Uni
versity Of Missouri. Little difference
In water content was found between
apple trees transplanted IN late fall
and those which were not transplanted.
Also. the trees whose branches were
pruned back In late autumn contained.
on the average. slightly more water
than those which retained their
branches While this difference is not
great II at least indicates that the
pruned branches did mot suffer from
drying out through the wounds, but
that on the contrary the pruned trees
dried out slightly less than those
which were not pruned.

While We admit the theoretical
justice Of the ruling OF the Mime
sofa judge who deprived the Nonpar-
tisan candidate Of his victory over
Congressman Volstead because the
former had lied about and slandered
the later In the campaign. we doubt
its good effects In practice. We fear
that trying to apply the rule will be
sadly abused by partisan judges and
also by Nonpar,isan judges should
