NEW PORK, June S.-District
Attorney Blanton, who is inyestigat-
ing the charges of bucketing against
several bankrupt brokerage houses,
today called on the police to aid
him in tracing records of the curb
market house of L. L. Winkelman
aid company which disappeared a
few minutes. after involuntary
bankruptcy proceedings had been
filed
Blanton rushed Assistant Attor-
ney Gibbs to the Winkleman house
as soon as he learned of the crash.
Gibbs reported that he had been
informed that several large pack
ages, presumably records of the
firm, had been taken away in a
taxicab.
The failure of the Winkelman
house, which was the largest firm
holding membership in the New
York curb market was intensified
by Blanton's campaign against hrok-
ers alleged to have operated in a
questionable manner.
The firm was suspended from the
New York curb market shortly be-
fore noon.

MOISTURE IN ORCHARD SOIL
Best Results Are Secured Where Water
Is Either Moving UP or Down
Every Day.

The ideal orchard soil is that in
which the water is either moving up or
down every day in the year. In wet
weather the rain or melting SOW wa
ter seeps readily down to underground
drains. In dry weather capillary ac-
ton has become well established and
the soil water is coming up to feed the
trees from vast storage basins under
ground. In the wet, clammy, undrained
rootbed the water neither moves up
nor down, except in very limited guam
titles. For some reason the wet un-
drained soil becomes practically closed
to successful capillary action. 1t alb
serbs a certain amount of water in
times of flood and will not admit an
other drop. -4--

PLANTING TREES IN ORCHARD
Greatest Mistake lie in Getting Them
Too Close Tepether-Handy
Table Given for All.

The greatest mistake made in laying
out orchards or in establishing plan
tations Of small fruit is the failure to
set the trees at proper distance.
Most people plant too close. This Is
false economy, and does an injury,
especially in the case of orchard trees.
that is seldom if ever remedied.
Only trees or bushes that have plenty
of room and an equal chance for light,
air, plant food and moisture, can be
expected to produce at their best. II
they are crowded, they are robbed of
just that much chance to produce for
you.
The following table will be handy
for all who have planting to do, even
for the experienced hand, for it is
human to forget:
Apple-24 to SO feet. Thirty feet
is the best distance.
Apricot-16 to 20 feet apart.
Asparagus to 2 feet between
plants; in rows 3 to 31s feet apart.
Blackberries-3 to 4 feet between
plants; In rows to feet apart.
Cherry (sour)-16 to 20 feet apart.
Cherry (sweet)-2O to % feet apart.
Currant-4 feet between plants; in
rows feet apart.
O0seberries-Same as currants.
Grapes-S to 10 feet apart in the.
row, with rows 10 or II feet apart.
Hedge plants--1 to 2 feet apart: l.
foot apart is best for lawn hedges.
Mulberries % to % feet apart.
Peach-16 to 20 feet apart.
Pear (standard) 20 to 81 feet apart.
Pear (dwarf)-1O to 16 feet apart
Plum-15 to 20 feet apart.
Quince-10 to 16 feet apart.
Raspberries (black)-3 feet between
bushes in rows 6 to 8 feet apart.
I Raspberries (red)-3 feet apart in
rows 5 to feet apart.
Rhubarb--3 feet between plants in
rows feet apart
Roses-2 to 31a feet apart, with
feet being the minimum for hardy
roses.
Walnut-35 to 40 feet apart. !.
II your planting space is limited, do
not seek to remedy it by crowding in
more plants or trees. This will de-
feat the very object you have in mind.
Follow the tables and allow plenty of
room. Remember that young trees
look mighty small when being planted
and it seems waste of good ground
to set them so far apart, but try and
visualize that tree when it is matured
and at the height of it's bearing.
Set the trees far enough apart at
the first, and If you have to get some
thing out of the ground, plant another
crop between the trees the first two or
three seasons. This can be done, al
though it is not best. Strawberries
make an excellent intercrop in the
young orchard.

DIED UNDER LOAD OF HAY
Carl A. Anderson Of Rock County
Victims of Accident.

Carl A. Anderson Of Rock County
Victims of Accident.
Luverne, May Twenty two
hours after Carl 4. Anderson, Mound
township farmer. was last seen in
the barnyard OF his farm. his life
less body was found under half a
load OF hay in the NOW OF his barn
Mr.. Anderson disappeared shortly
before the noon hour Tuesday, and
was found Wednesday forenoon
shortly after ten o'clock. During the
intervening time relatives and
friends OF MIR. Anderson had kept
up almost 2 constant search for him,
and had on numerous occasions
tramped over the hay which hid his
body.
Examination disclosed that death
was due to a fracture Of the neck
and sutfocation, caused by a sling
full of hay falling on him, the
weight OF which apparently not only
fractured his neck, but forced his
head down upon his chest in such
q position as to hasten smothering.
The hay was sling full that had
hung elevated in the barn since last
fall, and ii Is presumed that either
Intentionally or unintentionally,
Mr.. Anderson tripped the sling, and
vas accidentally caught under the
falling hay, which is estimated to
have weighed between eight and ten
hundred pounds.
