Prominent growers set peach trees at least twenty tect apart Although some set the trees sixteen to eighteen feet apart, this has proved too close. Peach trees set at this distance cannot secure sufficient light, plant food and moisture to develop properly and a good cover crop cannot be grown under these conditions. Lurge growing varieties of apples, such ns Bnldwin. Staymnn and Grav ensleln, are at the maximum distance of forty feet apart. In certain sections where these varieties grow smaller, because of soli conditions, thirty-six feet Is sulllcleut. Varieties of medium size, such as Rome, Mcintosh and Twenty Ounce, do best when set thirty-six feet apart. For the smqller growing and upright varieties, as Wealthy, Duchess and Yellow Trans parent, thirty to thirty-two feet is suit able. Where fillers are placed between permanent trees the latter are set for ty feet apurt. Plums are set at a dis tance of twenty feet apart, pears twen ty, sour cherries twenty to twenty-five and sweet cherries thirty to thirty-five feet.1 I TO GET GOOD RESULTS If spring "fries" and fall eggs are desired the Incubator should be set the first or second week in February, giv ing a batch the early part of March, according to T. S. Townslcy, instructor In poultry husbandry lu Kansas Agri cultural college. The main purposes of an early hatch Is to allow the pullets ample time to mature before cold weather. If they do not do this they will not lay until the following spring. Cockerels hatch ed in March will he ready to sell when I lie market for fries is good. The early hatched chicks will be large enough to he turned out on the ground by the time grass and other plants have start ed to grow and will thus get the ad vantage of the green feed. Before starting the incubator it Is advisable to spray the machine thor- The Rhode Island Iteds have yel low skins, their bones are well cov ered with meat, and they have a round and handsome appearance when dressed Rhode Island Red hens are excellent sillers, make the best or mothers and bring the chickens along ciuickly and manu facture good broilers early.

The bird pictured Is a Single Comb Rhode Island Red cock. oughly with a 2 per cent solution of coal tar disinfectant. This will kill any germs or spores that may have lived through the winter. The incubator should be kept in a warm ruum, prefer ably a cellar. In order that outside weather conditions will not cause the temperature of the nmch'ue to drop to a dangerous point The Incubator should be run two or three days to test the temperature be fore the eggs are put In. The machine should be kept at. a temperuture of 101 degrees the tlrst week, 102 degrees the second week and 103 degrees the third week. The thermometer should be kept on a level with the top of the eggs. The lump shoula be tilled and the wick carefully trimmed each day. The eggs should be turned and cooled be fore taking care of the lamp, because if there Is any grease or oil on the bands when the eggs are handled It will Injure the hatching qualities of the eggs. Tbey should be turned every day for the first eighteen days. It is a good plan to move the eggs at the out side of the tray ti the Inside to over come any difference in temperature. Beginning with the thlid day the eggs should he cooled each time they are turned. Care of the Bull Calf. At the age of five to six months the bull calf must be separated from the other calves. From this time on he must receive regular exercise and be gently handled. Wheu he Is ten to twelve months of age he muy be given light service, possibly one cow every three or four weeks. From the age of twelve to sixteen months this service may be Increased to one cow per week. AlfalfaNeeds Lime. Probably no other field crop requires lime to such an extent as does alfalfa, and, with the exception of rather lim ited limestone areas, practically all of the soils of the United States east of the ninety-fifth meridian require liming for the best development of this crop.

MULVEY Attorney at lav iiwlisiiiii CLOSE ELECTIONS, Many Great Events Decided by a Narrow Margin. HISTORY MADE BY ONE VOTE. In Several Instances In the Life of Our Nation, Notably In the Hayea-Tilden Presidential Contest, a Single Ballot Turned the Scales. There have been many close elections In the cities, counties and states of this great nation, as well as in the nation at large Itself. In the latter class the Tilileu-Hayes contest was tlif most sensational. In that memorable elec tion the result turned upon the single vote of the fifteenth member of the electoral commission, who was chosen by four Judges of the supreme court Our history abounds with Instances In which the course of events bus turn ed upon single votes, and some of them may, be conveniently selected from the compilation made by Speaker Clark for one of his Chautauqua lec tures. General Jackson was elected major general of Tennessee militia by one majority. Without that one vote he could not have fought the battle of New Orleans, and politics would have been different for a quarter of a cen tury. Martin Van Buren won the presi dency through his defeat by one vote on the confirmation of his nomination as minister to England. John C. Calhoun, as vice' president, cast the deciding vote which gave to Van Buren what Calhouu never got for himself, although his claims were not Inferior. Edward Everett lost the governor ship of Massachusetts by one vote, and that took him out of the list of avail ables for the presidency. Thomas H. Benton .was elected to the senate by a single vole. The loss of that one vote not only would have cost him his career of thirty years, but would bnve meant the loss to the senate of one of its strongest and most famous members in a most trying era. One of the great characters of Ameri can history might never have emerged from obscurity. Henry Clay cast the deciding vote in the constitutional convention which admitted Kentucky to the Union as a slave state. If Kentucky had entered the Union as a free state it is hardly doubtful that Missouri would have done the same, and it is conceivable that there might have been no Mis souri compromise, tr&UX'rhaps even no war between the states. The Walker tariff passed the senate by a single vote. Taft lost the vote of Idaho through a tie in the precinct of Boise. If one more man had voted for Taft Roosevelt would have lost con trol of the state. There Is at least one case in which a single vote was the entire election. At the primaries for the Prohibition nomi nation for judge In Schuylkill county, Pit., one vote was cast. There being no other candidate or voter, Klchard H. Koch was unanimously chosen. A miss Is said to be as good as a mile, and undef some conditions one vote is as good as a million. On the other hand, a majority of 100,000 may be worthless, as was ac tually the case hi Indiana. At the gen eral election In November, 1000, a pro posed amendment that "the general as sembly shall by law prescribe what qualifications shall be necessary for admission to practice law to all courts of Justice" was submitted to the elec tors. Nearly 100,000 more votes were cast for the amendment than against it. But it did not receive a majority of the votes cast for presidential electors and governor. The supreme court held that It had not been carried by the con stitutional majority required for the ratification of a proposed amendment. That was a case where an actual ma jority at the polls lost In the courts. There would be no end to the prece dents regarding the value of a few votes If the search were extended to foreign history. One example will suf fice to show that the count of the votes Is ps important as the casting of them. In 1011 the Monis ministry fell In France because It was thought to be In a minority of fourteen, when in fact 11 had a majority of five.- According to the contemporary cablegram: The crisis arose over an Interpellation regarding the attitude of the government as to the chief command of the army In the event of war, and the official list showed 238 votes against the government and 2T4 In favor. M. Monis was still on a sick bed as the result of an accident and his colleagues decided on resignation. The curious fact has now been brought to light, however, that at the moment of the fateful division there was consider able confusion In regard to the votes for and against. A number of deputies announced that their names had appeared on the wrong division list. An official rectification was made, with the result that so far from having been defeated the government had the narrow majority mentioned above. Though this discovery may be the source of much personal satisfaction to the ex-premier, It is, of course, too late to affect the fate of his ministry. These arc cases merely of misadven ture In the working of the machinery of voting. The cases of malicious falsi fying of popular sentiment are too nu merous to record. New York Times. Cause Not Cure.

I I I Portland Railway Light Power Company ROAD DEBATE AT CARUS Commercial Club Committee Discuss es Bond Issue With Farmers The Oregon City Commercial club's 12 disciples of road efficiency,' as they have designated themselves, invaded Carus Friday night to urge the pro posed $6,000,000 road bond issue and were greeted by a well attended meeting. Livy Stipp and B. T. Mc Bain were the speakers of the even ing for the Commercial club commit tee in a debate with Charles E. Spence, member of the state grange, and J. D. Brown, president of the Farmers' union. The discussion brought out many interesting points in connection with the bond issue, and the divided senti ment of the audience made it difficult to determine which side might have had the better of the argument. The meeting was arranged by the Carus people and they invited the debate. The Commercial club's committee of 12 has a series of meetings planned that will take it to all parts of the county, and to a man the committee is confident that Clackamas county will be in the front rank of the sup porters of the bond issue at the spe cial election on June 4.
