CLEAN UP THE ORCHARD NOW, ALSO PUT MACHINERY IN CONDITION POR NEXT YEAR Manhattan, Nov. 18. (Special) If man has a sore throat in summer, he doesn't wait till midwinter to gargle it. The fruit grower" who finds dead wood In his trees does not, if he is wise, wait till the regular pruning time to get rid of It Dead wood in fruit trees should be eliminated at once, whether in autumn, winter, spring or summer, points out Harold Simonds, extension: liofficultUT-ist in the Kansas State Agricultural college. It is worth while right nwv to examine all trees and remove the dead wood.

Postpone the regular pruning of the trees till late in the winter, advises Mr." Simonds. From long" experience in fruit growing in the Yakima valley and elsewhere," Mr. Sihtonds has found that in the late fall or early winter trees are often not so dormant turnout as they seem. By doing the regular pruning late in the winter, one is sure to be doing itat'he safest time when tire' trees have" least life in their branches. Aside from cutting away dead limbs, Mr.

Simonds suggests that the orchard-ist plow his orchard now unless it has been plowed within the last three years. Thiis is one of the important steps In clean cultivation, resulting in destruction of eggs and larvae of insects and putting the ground into condition to conserve the moisture from the winter snows. Late fall and yearly winter are also good times to overhaul machinery and pruning tools. It is a good plan to buy such extra parts as experience shows wear out frequently. Among these are nozzles and couplings.

The orchardist should have a supply of these on hand to avoid waiting for them in the busy pruning season. Now -is also a good time to estimate the spray materials that will be necessary in the coming season and to arrange for their purchase. 1- i i I V' si 1 1 SAVE 25 AND 50 ON BARGAINS LISTED Extra Clerks Wanted AT BOTH OUR" TOPEKA STORES 1 v. 433 Kansas Ave 118 East Sixth St. Clothing Co.

PLACING BETS ON ELECTION RESULTS CAUSES TROUBLE FOR PROMINENT KANSANS Jamestown, Nov." 18.

(Special) Fred M. Cook, editor of the Kansas Optimist at and Roy C. Kiggins, Missouri Pacific station agent at Jamestown, were recently arrested on a complaint made by Peterson, of Jamestown, charging them witli gambling by betting on election. The county attorney of Cloud county drew the complaint and his information was that each, man had bet $50 in on the outcome of the congres- sionsil election in the Fifth district, the station agent placing his money on O. Stfong and the postmaster edi'or putting up his hard earned cash on the candidacy of Guy T.

Helverlng. When the case was called before Judge Sexsmith. of Concordia, Roy IHrrtjins appeared and entered a plea of guilty, being assessed a fine of $10 ami cotsts. Editor Cook plead? not guilty and his ease continued. rpon investigation ft was found That each man bet $25 Instead of $50, and that each gave a check to the stake holder for this "amount.

The station agent then attempted to prevent the editor from voting on the grounds'that it is not lawful for a man betting on election to cast his ballot. Failing to stop the editor's vote, the station agent then stopped payment on his check at the bank the night before election. The stakeholder returned both checks and Ho money changed hands. The law is rather confusing as to when a bet Is a bet Some authorities that the crime is committed when the money is "put up." Other authorities hold that money or property must actually change bauds. In view of the fact that the checks in this particular case were neither money nor property, and that no one had lost or won in the transaction, the county attorney finally decided to dismiss the case.
