H. . Wells. In hla forthcoming
book, "New Worlds for Old." aeta forth
his belief In hrclallsm. "The present
writer." he says, "has long been Inter

(ireat Itrltaln and America and In all
these complicated Issues one lumps to
gether as aoclal questions. In the last
few yeara he haa gone Into It person
ally and studied the Socialist move
ment closely and Intimately at first
hand. He has made the acquaintance
of many of Its leaders upon both aides
of the Atlantic, Joined numerous or
ganizations, attended and held meet
ings and experimented In Socialist pol
itics. He calls himself a Socialist, but
he la by no means a fanatical or un
critical adherent. To him Socialism
presents Itself as a very noble but a
very human and fallible system of
Ideas."

cent attempt to "unfreeze Oeorge
Washington" and to give a more true
Idea of the man than that aupplled
by the expurgated schoolbook histories,
who. If be was heroic was also Tery
human, Ir. Edward Everett Hale re
cords an Interesting episode In his own
early literary life. "Nearly fifty years
ago," be says, "I was myself apolnted
as a member of a committee which
was to edit n series of unpublished
letters of Washington's. I was the
Junior member of the committee, hut
with all modi-sty I an Id st the first
meeting that I would not serve ss one
of the editors nnless the letters were
to be published as we found them,
swesr words and all. To my great sat
lafnctlon the chairman aald with seri
ous earnestness: 'I think Mr. Hale Is
right. I think the time has come when
we can tell the truth nbout Washing
ton." Of Mr. Wister, Ir. Hale says
"he Is always entertaining, and when
he Is writing a hook he always says
what he thinks himself and does not
let anyone else do bis thinking for
him."

helpful to cut the thistle off about
three Inches below the surface of

underground stems, and allow thera

Another letter from W. O. M., of
Mabton, made Inquiry concerning the
culture of English walnuts In that
region. Professor Thornber's reply
follows:
"The selection of proper varieties
Is very Important, and up to the pres
ent time 1 have found only two va
rieties that are hardy enough to
thrive well under the conditions of
your locality. These two are the
Fayette and the Mayette. They art
not English walnuta, strictly speak
ing, but are'the same species, and
are commonly spoken of aa "Per
sian or 'English walnuts.' It will
be Impossible for you to grow In s
commercial way 'grafted trees of
these varieties, simply because ths
operation of grafting Is so difficult
that only a few are secured, and ths
price of grafting stock Is very high.
A better way la to secure good first
or second generation trees from re
liable nurserymen. Theses second
generation trees are grown from
nuta of first generation trees, usually
In Oregon and California. From my
personal experience, I should Judge
that you will succeed remarkably
well If you secure good varieties.
Almost any of our Bolls, If the sea
sons are not too severe, will grow
English walnuts, providing there Is
not a shale, or hardpan. nearer than
three or four feet to the surface of
the ground. I understand that we
are obliged to watch these conditions
very closely In this section. I do not
recommend that English walnuta be
aown In vour region, yet I believe by
I selection of varieties and of
the orchard grounds that they will
succeed ln many placea.
Another Inquiry from Seattle re
lateB to the culture of chestnuts. The
correspondent wss advised as fol
lows:
"The American chestnut (the reg
ular, tall-growing variety) should be
pruned the same as any other shade
tree, leaving, nowever, a permanent,
or constant leader, through the cen
ter of the tree. This Is the practice
of the Experiment Station, and one
that Is used upon all forms of the
tall, or upright, growing trees. It Is
also used upon the sweet cherries,
but not upon the sour ones.
"The tendency of this chestnut Is
to produce s thin, open top, and it Is
advisable to cut back the outer limbs,
and occasionally the leader, to thick
en the foliage. The Dwarf, or Jan
anese, chestnuts should be pruned
to small, compact trees, branching
tnem riorn a foot to three feet from
the ground. They will practically
take care of themselves after the
first year or two of pruning. This
pruning may be done at any time
while the tree Is dormant, or after
tne sap has ceased to flow, which
will be Immediately after It comes
Into full leaf."
A farmer residing near Center
Tllle, desires to know the best meth
od of raising peas, and the most de
sirable variety; also, with regard to
combining peaa with oats. Tha Sta
tion supplied him with the follow
ing Information:
"The experience of the Experi
ment Station staff, leads us to be
lieve that almost any of the com
mon field variety of peas will grow
