NELSON
HE LOVED WIFE
Tells joe Jones There Was No Altar In
Place Where He Was
Married.

WINDSOR. May 24.-The case of Mrs.
Nell Nelson, who is suing Thomas and
Kate Nelson, parents of her husband,
for the alleged alienation of the latter's
affections. which started in the federal
court. here last week. was opened again
for trial yesterday. -
The plaintiff resides in North Carolina
and the defendants are wealthy resi-
dents of West Pawlet.
AT the trial yesterday Mrs. Kate Mel
son denied the allegations of the plain
tiff. -.
Her son. Romeyn Nelson, husband of
the plaintiff, gave considerable testimony
in the afternoon. Attorney Joseph
Jones, who is acting as one of the c0un-
sci for the plaintiff, asked Romeyn Mel
son if he really loved his wife when he
married her and the witness said ''that
he thought he did. ,
This rather irritated lawyer Jones and
he asked the plaintiff if he considered
the ~sanctity of the marriage relation
at the time he took his wife to the altar.
The witness said that there was no
altar in the place where the ceremony
took place.

DAUGHERTY DODGEs ISSUE.
Issues Statement on His Connection with
NIorse Case but SAYS Nothing.

WASHINGTON, May N24-Attorney
General Harry NJ. Daugherty broke his
long silence on the Morse case yester-
day by issuing from his office this state
ment
THE correspondence of ex-President
Taft and Attorney General Wickersham,
which was again published this month,
clearly shows my connection with the
Morse case of many years ago, both civil
and criminal. The incentive and mo-
tives inspiring this and other agitation
win not accomplish the results hoped
for by those behind the scenes.
'"The various prosecutions OF war
fraud cases will be carried out as expe-
ditiously as possible, irrespective OF
those and other activities and attacks
which will be expected.

have confidence in the department of Jus

Thus he neither confirms nor denies
the authenticity of the documents bear

Caraway of Arkansas has been reading
into the record of the senate, and he does

those documents relative TO his own

E ACTION
ON BONUS BILL
Senator MeCumber Tired of Waiting for
Harding and Wants Measure Put
on Senate Calendar.

WASHINGTON, May 24-Chairman
McCumber may bring up the soldiers
bonus bill in the senate finance commit
tee majority without waiting for PresIr
dent Harding to communicate his views
on the amended house measure. lie sald
yesterday he would try to get the bill
before the majority some time this week.
Senator McCumber desires to have the
bonus measure placed on the senate cal
endar at an early date so senators may
have opportunity to study it and thus be
prepared for senate consideration when
a favorable opportunity offers. Before
the bill can be reported to the senate,
however, it must be approved by the en-
tire finance committee, Republicans and
Democrats.
Some Republican senate leaders are
in favor of letting the bonus question
rest for a while in the hope that the
negotiations looking to the refunding of
the foreign debt soon will reach the stage
where some definite information will be
available as to when the refunded for
egn bonds will be in hand for financing
the adjusted compensation legislation.
Supporters of the legislation in its
present form, however, argue that the
cost of financing for the first two, years
will be so small that there is no need of
waiting until the foreign bonds actually
are in the possession of the treasury de-
partment before the legislation is en-
acted.
The amended house bill was outlined
to the President two weeks ago by Sen
ator MeCumber and others of the finance
committee and it was stated then that
the President would communicate his
views to the committee. Thus far Chair
man McCumber has received no word
from him.

FEED YouR APPLE TREES.
viii Produce Better and Larger Apples
If You Do.

Feed your apple trees" is a slogan
adopted by County Horticultural Agent
William II. Wolf. A supply of plant
food early this spring will produce
larger apples this fall and will also lay
down a bigger set of flower buds to in
sure next years crop. The treatment
of an orchard one year often has its
greatest effect on the following years
production.
Mr.. Wolff advocates cultivation. as
one of the best and most economical
ways of handling the bearing apple or
chard, when combined with tertilizer or
manure under the trees. If this method
is adopted the blowing of strips between
the rows should be begun now II the
strips should be narrowed every 10 days
until midsummer at which time they
should be sOwn TO a clover cover crop.
One should not pillow too close TO the
trees but should keep four or five feet
from each side of the tree row. leaving
the trees standing in strips OF grass
eight TO 10 feet wide.
Under the trees fertilizer or manure
should be applied. If nitrate of soda
or ammonium sulphate is used it should
he broadcasted evenly in about a week
from the present time. which will be APP
proximatelv q fortnight before the bios
SONS omen, over n circle covering the
entire surface under the trees and ex-
tending ont two or three feet beyond
the spread Of the branches. Rain will
wash tlis into the soil. If manure is
aygi9abIe use about 400 pounds of stable
manure. or 80 pounds Of hen manure to
three times during the season the grass
growing ii the strips should be moved
and left on the ground. In the plowed
area cultivation Is all that rs necessary.
as the roots there are not large enough
to take up much nourishment from the
soil.
saThis method of strip cultivation,
combined with fertilizer or manure" &C
cordinr to Mr.. Wolff, was very thor
onghlv tried out in several of our demon
~stration orchards last year and pro-
duced excellent results. It will prob
season nv orchardists who saw its sue:
cess last year. The early. application OF
fertilizer viii help make the little apples
stick on the trees. Don't be afraid to
feed YOU apple trees! They need food
lust as much as do human "a beings and and
supplies them what they need when
they need it."
