TAKING A VACATION.
The habit of taking a vacation, commonly in the summer, is
often spoken of as practically a universal one. Yet millions of
people never enjoy this respite from work. Some get too much
vacation. Workers in industrial plants complain that factories
usually run somewhat irregularly anyway, and they have to take
their rest at times when the shops shut down. Many business
men feel that they simply can't drop their work even for a few
days, and that no one could perform their duties if they went
away. But their business is poorly organized if everything stops
in case of their absence. Millions of farmers also never take a
regular vacation. They can not commonly get away in the crop
season, and in the winter they may feel no special desire to go,
and may have no one whom they can leave in charge of their
work. Many busy mothers work every day in the year and never
take a rest. When the industrial millenium comes, every one will
have a chance to lay off for a brief period and be free to seek
rest and change. In that golden age, factories will be arranged
to run so regularly that the workers will be able to quit, without
having to worry for fear they may be idle longer than they want
to. Business men and farmers who stick to their work every
week in the year, do not realize the losses that they suffer. They
get into a kind of mental rut and often suffer from physical
weariness. A man can do more work in 50 weeks than he can in
52. This is equally true of the tired housewife. The mind and
body recover elasticity as the result of a wholesome outing, and
people come back with a fresher point of view. They can see
further into their business problems and they approach the same
with more hope and enthusiasm. Vacations pay if reasonably
used, and everybody ought to have them.
Alfred J. Westendorf, formerly of this state, now with the
Babson Institute, Wellesley Hills, Mass., where young men are
trained for high executive positions, has earned an enviable rep
utation, through a hobby of his, as a developer of permanent
"root" growth in boys and young men. He is one of those men
who has time to think of and with others. Some of the magazines
have referred to him as a national friend, others call him an
other Doctor Conwell or Judge Lindsay. He possesses a very in
quisitive mind when it comes to the welfare of young people. He
is always wondering about what is being done and what might be
done. During the past two years at his own expense and in his
oiiiot way he has been carrying on a survey with reference to
WgK school activities throughout the country. He wanted to
know what they were thinking about and what they were doing.
He found that practical school men everywhere were clamoring
and craving for definite and concrete examples of school activi
ties. That better ideas were in demand everywhere. To serve
these people is the thing that urged him on in these investigations.
M'r. Westendorf found that lack of interest on the part of the
pupil in many cases was due to lack of concentrated effort on the
part of the school. That it was due to not having the work hung
on a definite hook. He found that many schools by simply giving
their present methods a new twist might become 100 per cent
more productive. Ho found loads of schools carrying on splendid
thrift campaigns, but in Olathe, Kansas, for instance, the pupils
are not simply urged to save but are trained from the 5th grade
up to prepare to meet their own graduation expenses. It is not
wily a fine training, but unconsciously it tends to develop a de
sire to stay to the finish. It tends to eliminate the dropping out
habit. It gives thrift an entirely new color.
Oregon's capital punishment law was brought into full swing
this morning at eight o'clock when Rathie and Kirby paid the
penalty for killing Sheriff Til Taylor, of Fendleton. It takes quite
awhile sometimes to mete out justice to a murderer after over
riding a great array of technicalities but once the crime is just
ly fastened upon the condemned man all efforts to frustrate the
true intent of the law seems to count for naught. Today's hap
pening is a good lesson to those persons who consider too lightly
the taking of another's life.
o :
The Oregon non-partisan league wants a state controlled
bank. They must be looking for easy money, but this old state
is far from taking on any new wrinkles in a banking way. The
fait is, the banks of the country are now overburdened w ith state
and national supervision.
o
The state highway commission, in company with other state
officials, passed through Koselmrg this morning on their way
south by automobile. It must be n great satisfaction to these
gentlemen to travel over the wonderful roads made possible by
their careful suin-rvision.
Both the condemned men professed innocenso before they
Mvung into eternity. This is a natural consequence. Their minds
have been trained to this point ever since their conviction.

It is just about time for the weather man to change his
forecast. Why have two months of summer weather in a single
week?

Second-Growth Black Walnut Trees, Well Spaced to Psrmit Nut Produc
tion.
(Prepared by the Unlft States Department
of Acrlculture.)
Native nut tree, such as the black
wulnut and members of the hickory
group Including the pecan, have a po
tential value aot generally realized.
Aside from the well-known value of
the timber of the walnut In the mak
ing of furniture, gun-stocks, and air
plane propellers, and of the white
hicknrit-s in the manufacture of auto
mobile wheels, tool handles, and many
other articles, and even of peenn wood
In Its variety of uses, partlculurly for
harness homes, these trees, when
rightly selected and placed, form most
attractive ornnmentHls. But, In addi
tion to these uses, which alone are of
enough Importance to justify the care
ful preservation of existing trees and
the planting of others, they have an
economic value In the nuts produced.
These native nuts, even though un
cultivated and unimproved, and, per
haps, Inferior In shell thickness and
cracking quality, are preferred by
many to any of the cultivated kinds
from Europe and Asia.
Nut Crop Adds to Income.
On many American farms by-products
or small crops make important
additions to the income, and In many
localities nut trees planted about the
farm buildings, along the highways, or
In other unoccupied spaces, or old
trees that hnve been left In the clear
ing away of the original forest, are
depended upon to add noticeably to
tlm bnnk nccounjt. Forward-looking
farmers wnnt to mnke their trees pro
duce the best nuts and In the greatest
possible quantity. .
First of nil, every tree Intended to
bear nuts In quantity needs ample
space, GO feet being none too great an
Interval between trees of equal rate
of growth, and larger trees, unless on
the sliady side, should be 100 feet
apart. A fertile soli that Is reason
ably moist Is best for nut trees, well
drained clay loam being the most de
sirable. Variety Is next In Importance to soil
and location. Experienced observers
know that nut trees do not come true
to feed, and that the only way to
reproduce a variety or an ldentleul
tyue is by grafting or budding, as Is
done with apples, peaches, pears, and
other fruits. Kurseymen In the north
ern part of the country are now propa
gating several vurletles of black wal
nuts, pecans, hickories, and butternuts
by these methods, but due to tho fact
that active Interest began only a de
cade ago, none of these varieties has
receive no further attention; (3) cuts
should be made In lute winter while
the trees are still dormant, or, at the
latest, just before the leaves appear;
I (-) cuts should always be made
( slightly above a bud, which will as
sure renewal In case the graft should
full.
(.rafting may be done by the com
mon cleft method or the slip-bark
method. The former Is usually em-
ployed when the tree Is still dormant
and the latter at any time during the
i growing period, but the scions used
, must always be dormant, and as
i scions In that condition are seldom
available after the first of April
1 neither method Is of much Interest
1 Just now. It is now too late to top
work ti?es this season, but those thnt
. have been cut back and small trees
that may be budded without cutting
i back may be left until late summer or
! autumn, so that scions (then called
bud sticks) of the better varieties may
; be obtained and buds from them ln-
I' sorted In. the bark of the new shoots.
Specially devised tools for remov
ing the buds from the bud sticks and
' for removing pieces of bark of Identi
cal size from the stock are on the
market. Several are Illustrated In
Fanners' Bulletin 700, Pecan Culture,
which contains much Information of
Interest to nut propagators, and which
may he obtained hy writing to the
I'Cpnrtment of Agriculture, Washing
ton, D. a Budding by the "patch
' bud" method may be done at any time
; when the bark of the stock . slips
j readily. On trees of rapid growth the
' hark will slip at almost any rime In
the summer. On young trees not cut
back budding mny be done In the first
half of the growing season, whereas
new shoots grown from below cut-off
: tops should be of sufficient size for
1 budding during the latter half of the
season. Dry spells frequently cause
the bark to tighten, but rains will
loosen It loter. The season for bud
ding sometimes extends until the trees
begin to go dormant. During the lat
ter half of the season buds may be
selected from those formed at the
base of the present season's growth.
Most of them' will remain dormant
until the following spring.

The determination of groups and as

nerds of entire communities on a bet- j
ter paying basis Is shown by records
of the United States Department of
Agriculture In connection with Its bet-ler-slres
activities. Participation in
the federal-state campaign for"I!etter

Ing of a blank In which a farmer lists
his breeding stock and agrees to use
purebred sires for all classes of fnrm I
animals kept The blanks are dls- j
irinuiea in most cases by county
agents and are virtually death war
rants for grade and scrub sires.
In one day recently the department
received 1S2 such blanks signed hy
farmers In Hocklnghnm county, Vir
ginia, and Indorsed by Charles YV.
Wampler, county agent. Other large
numbers received in one day from In
dividual communities were 89 from

Guernsey county, Ohio.
Purebred sires of Inferior qnallty
are often disposed of along with
scrubs and grades In accordance with
the requirement that the purebreds
listed must be of sufficient merit to be
worthy of heading herds and flocks.
