OREGOB SENTINEL. JACKHOKVILLK t Saturday, Januaict H, 1882. riVTINC OF YKCIT TUEE8. Rock Pointr Jan. 4, 1882. Editor Sektinel. By your per mission. I will offer a few hints on transplanting fruit trees. Every man who contemplates planting even a small orchard should put himself in possession of a good treatise- on tree oulturo that will furnish him with re liable instruction. Transplanting is to .b considered under the following heads: Fruit trees will not live or ttrive on a soil that is constantly sat urated with stagnant moisture; the Boil should be well prepared by very deep plowing say from 15 to 20 inches. If the soil is poor it should have plenty of well decomposed ma nure. In regard to the preparation of .the trees tfiere are more fatal errors committed than in any other. Trees are generally set just as they come from the nursery. No matter how careful Ibey are removed a portion of tho roots are broken or destroyed and tho bal ance that existed in the structure cf the tree is .therefore deranged. This must be restored by proper pruning adapted to the size and condition of the tree as follows: Pare- off all the bruised ends of the roots; if they are yearling trees cut off all the side branches and top about the height you desire the future top to put forth. If from two to three years old cut offside branches, also the top branches to with in thrse or four buds of the last year's growth. In planting trees, dig the holes in the first place large enough to admit thr roots of the tree to spread out in their natural position. Having the tree pruned as above directed, let one person hold it in a upright position and the otlier Bhorel in earth, carefully put ing the finest from the surface among the roots, bringing every root in con tact with the seil. After the roots are well covered, peur in a pail of wa ter to settle the earth completly among the roots; then fill up the hole with loose earth. Throw around it as far as the roots extend, and a foot beyond, six or eight inches deep, coarse manure or litter. This is very essential and necessary on dry ground as it prevents the ground from baking or drying and maintains an equal temptrature about be allowed to grow about young trees as it stunts their growth and utterly ruins them. Keep the ground clean and mellow. Keep the trunk of trees well shaded the first year to keep out borers. In regard to the distance apart I would say apples require more i-paco than other fruit trees. They should be planted closer on poor than rich soil. The number required to plant an acre, 15 feet apart each way 200, 18 each way 135, 20 feet 110, 25 feet, 70, 30 feet, 50. ' B. F. Miller. Hurrah! For Sargent. The mention of Ex-Senator Sargent as a possible candidate for Secretary of the Interior has brought all his ene mies pell mell to the front and the fact shows that he lias not been a seeker after popularity. Plucky men who Lave fixed ideas of their own are the ones who make enemies and Sargent is of this class; never fearing to take a manly stand nor to pursue any coursp, he thought right, regardless of its pop ularity. The importance to this coast of having a member of the cabinet thoroughly informed on all its varied interests is greater than the question: which of the wings of California Re publicans shall he be taken from? His fitness to fill the place with ability and business tact is something to be con sidered also, and Mr. Sargent's career during twenty years of active pvblic life specially fits him for the place. We like his pluck and the stubborn will that has surrounded him with en emies clamorous for his destruction and it is evident there must be some thing in him. If he were not a man of marked ability and powerful in fluence such determined efforts to pull him down would not t6 made, and bo cause of the unseemly and factious opposition we hope to see him appoint . ed. Secret Societies and the Catholic Cknrch. In responso to a question on the sub ject, Archbishop Wood, of Philadel phia, Bays that "the mere observance of secrecy in relation to the executive business of any Order whose aims are honorable and lawful, is not enough to denominate it a secret organization. That if the obligation demanded of a person becoming a member is specific, and for the simple purpose of conceal ing from the outside world privato business, and is not a general, sweep ing oath, covering all the purposes, acts and intentions of the organization, he does not consider it a secret society." Under the above liberal ruling of the Catholic prelate there is nothing whatever in the nature of Odd fellow ship or, indeed, in that of almost any similar organization that would pro- i vent catholics from becoming members. JCSTICETEHrUBED VflTHMEltClT. Judge Deady, of the TJ. S. DisL court for Oregon, has been enjoying a handsome reception at his old home at Clairsvillo, Ohio, after thirty-two years absence. His prominence in the pa pers, now, recalls an incident that oc curred about twenty-eight years ago, when he was Territorial Judge and dispensed justice down here in South ern Oregon. A young man had been convicted of horse stealing in old TJrop quacounty andwas broughtintocourt for sentence. His honor eyed the prisoner with that peculiar look that he usually fcestows on the unfortunates who stand in his awful presence accused of crime. The Judge's eye was a little moist: for the culprit was young, innocent looking and evidently raised by respectable parents. Whispers ent round the audience: "I guess two years" said one. "One year" said a second. "Wait" said a third "the old 'man looks -soft like guess he'll bust that verdict up and let the boy t-o." " Stand up pris oner;" said the judge, firmly, as a smile played round his mouth; "Stand up sir. The poor boy obeyed ana .ueaay looked steadily and silently at him. Nothing broke the- deathly silence. The judge's eye grew moister, forhe was thinking, no doubt, of the mother ef that poor misguided youth, and the springs of mercy were beginning to flow. "Young man," said his honor, with well assumed severity, you have been convicted of a crime punishable by the statute by, from one to fifteen years in the penitentiary. It moves my heart to pronounce sentence; you are a mere youth; from your appearance you have had respectable and loving parents; a christian training and the light of the Sabbath school. I am glad to know' that this is your first offence against society and that it has been the result of bad. conpanionship rather than the impulse of a wicked heart. The court feels that justice should be tempered with mercy; therefore; in consideration of your youth, your re spectable family connections, your pre vious exemplary conduct and the ex tenuating circumstances surrounding your case the sentence of the court is: that you be confined in the penitenti ary for the period of ten years." The deathlike silence of the audience was now broken by the sobbing of the unfortunate boy and the ill concealed disgust of the spectators and the well springs of mercy, so nearly exhausted, or.nIInw(l o jather Benin, while the humane judge discussed Sis sumptuous dinner. """Some day there will be an other reception-beyond the Great White Throne and the only speech will be: "He that has been niereiful to his fel lows even unto him will I be merciful." Antt Monopoly Itallroad. Henry Villard is strongly impressed with the propriety of an "independent" railway in Marion county and offers to connect with tho Salem and Waldo hills Railway on the usual mileage terms. He says; in a telegram on the subject to Wm. Reid "the local feeling in Marion county seems to demand an independent company and it is well to yield to this sentiment" This seems to dispose of the theory that Villard wants to monopolize all the railroad business in Western Oregon for; were he so disposed, he could prevent the building of tho new road, by refusing to connect with it and he desires to havo tho "anti-monopolists" try rail road building and management The experiment, it is hoped, will be at least as successful as the wheat shi ping experiment tried by the grangers a few years ago. No doubt, the anti monopolists would like Mr. Villard to build the road for them and allow them to fix the rates but he is sagacious enough to see that: if he wants it, he can buy it cheaper than he can build after the league have run it a while. "Inalpld Oregon Fruit.' The Yreka "Journal" tells two stor ies that dont hitch well. Speaking of the fineapples of Siskiyou it says "they are now left to rot on the trees and are of a quantity far superior to the dry and insipid Oregon red apples." Tne Journal closes by remarking: ',Much business is also done with Sis kiyou in Jackson county, more directly north, but this is beneficial to the Ore gonians for the sale of their flour, ba con and fruit, produced so abundantly in Rogue River valley." Now Bro. Nixon: come square out Is there not a mistake somewhere) If tho fruit of Siskiyou is so superior to our "dry, insipid red apples" why do your folks let it rot on the trees and import fruit from Jackson county! Is it because your people are too lazy to gather it or because the "Oregon" fruit is really the best! Tell the truth Rob, and don't go back on your good character for veracity. The "Tidings" says when the "rail road comes" we will be able to build a Court House. Delighted to hear it. X Sword 1TIIU two Uses. One of the demands of the "anti monopolists" is: "that there shall be no discrimination in freight charges." Under this rulo the Douglas county farmer would pay four times as much freight as the farmer in Marion county. On shipments of wheat, with the usu ally small margin, the rule would be prohibitory and the honest granger in Marion one hundred and fifty miles nearer a market than his less fortunate brother, would chuckle in the enjoy ment of a small monopoly. .It is doubt ful if there is a farmer in the Willam ette who does not wish he could con trol the market, yet if he were called a monopolist he would be highly insulted and go off and jein a "league" at once. The rule established by railroads "what a commodity will bear'' gives those farthest from a market a chance to compete with those nearest to it, and just here is where the anti-mqnojw. weapon seems to cut the keenest. The people ef Douglas wil) "d liuckfcwrlin demanding railroad legislation that will interfere with their interests, and as for the people of Jackson, they wont try to shake hands with the Devil un til thev meet him. "Croakers." Under this head a writer in the In dependent says there are many people about Roseburg who predict that the O. k C. R. R. Co. are not in earnest and do not intend to extend their road South of that point. The writer as sumes to speak by authority and says that work will be soon commenced on 'the extension. It is hard to tell what the companynre driving at, or what designs they may have, if they donl intend to build. They nre spending a large amount of money in surveying, are collecting material and tools at Roseburg and everything points to the intention of building as soon as weather permits that kind of work. It is possible that the company hope for an extension of the land grant and are pushing their surveys so as to file their map of location. There is one thing certain: the company knows how to mind its own business and if it did not our prospects for a railroad would be very slim. When work is actually commenced tho public will Beon know it. Because we cant find out the precise moment, work on the extension, will be commenced is no reason why predictions should be made: that it wont bo begun at-all. A Portland daily thinks the gatub ling law a "dead letter" and says it should be repealed and a better one substituted. Quite correct. The law has two bad features; the penalty is too severe, being about as reasonable as the death penalty for petty larceny, and juries will never convict. The law requires DisL Attornies, Marshals, Chiefs of Police and Constables to make it their special duty to hunt up offenders and this clause, considering that these gentlemen havo need of all their time to "fix" themselves for a second, or third, term, is an outrageous, wicked and unconstitutional slam on the sacred liberties of the American official. Future legislative wisdom must give us something better. Hall's Vegetable Sicilian Hair Renewer is a scientific combination of some of the most powerful restorative agents in the vegetable kingdom.
