If 3'ou do not want a bud to grow into limb rub off the bud from which the limb starts , NOW. Prun- ing any other time of year is a great deal more work and sacrifices the best development and fruiting of : the trees. Tbere should be from 8 : to o main limbs and the limbs balanced up. Keep center of tree moderately free from limbs. Where limbs inter - , ' , fere or rub each other cut off the end Jo that can be best spared and keep the : ' \ tree' good shape. Never cut olf a limb an inch or more from a bud or a limb or trunK of tree. It will leave a dead stub that will not heal over and it will decay . back into . the heart ot .limb or trunk of tree. Cut close and it will heal over completely in a short time. Paint large wounds with any kind of paint or white lead to prevent decay until wound heals ov- er. . Prune fruit trees now for fruit- fulness. Thus the tree has reserve strength and will put that extra strength into fruit buds which are iormed in August of this year for . next years fruit. !

Jack Whip pic has the contract for carrying the mail from Valen- tine to Rosebud , commencing July 1 , 1010. At this end he makes his headquarters at the Chicago House.

Some people think it a good sale but land has just now begun to appear valuable and we may see it go to § 40 : or § 50 per acre. A. L. Stewart , Robert Boyer. and Ben Dietz came up from the south part of the county yesterday to appear before the land office officials to defend the rights of Mr. ' Dietz in his homestead entry.

He and Dick called today on business , while in I " II I town. I Jejfries was put out in the 15th round. Johnson had a walkaway. . ' Only one round that Jell showed any fight ; that was the 4th. Al- though the aggressor in all except ing the loth round , he failed to land with any certainty and took a terrible beating. Wm.

Hare I I was also : brought down and lodged in jail awaiting the U. S. marshal. He refuses to discuss the case. A lot of people from adjoining towns celebrated the 4th of July I I I here. O. H. GorreH , now of I Chadron , played ball with the Val entine boys. Guy Lockhart and } I N. Redfern were also here. About ! 20 people were up from Ains- worth , among them Uncle Robert Martin , who played the fife. Gen. ' Miller [ played the snare drum and Del Shertnari the big drum. Sim R-iinhart was up yi iting. He is II I I - the excelsior Lum- working for Lumj j r ber Co. A number of O'Xeill ! people were _ here with the ball team. The Fourth of July broke calm and clear and at early daybreak the popping of cannon crackers and other noisy poppers aroused j the erstwhile slumbering populace. I The day came on and under a I blistering sun the people rolled i I into town and gathered under the ; sheltering platform o'n. Main : street ! where they listene.d to speaking bJ''I 'I ' Mr. Donahue of Tripp county and I I other local l speakers . , interspersed I with music. The day wore on and I the ball game between O'Xeill and ! ' I Valentine was recorded in favor of I the home team , as was also that of I the day previous , about 6 to 2 and 6 to 1. The horse races and small , sports interested many while the others remained in toun to talk and visit and watch the telegraphic reports of the big fight at Reno , in which Jeffries was tamed and put out in the fifteenth round.

' _ _ _ . : , ; - ; , - - ' . - ) The business interests of Nebraska defeated prohibition in 1S30 ) and such interests will do so in 1010. ; ) - . - - - . - Statistics show that the state debts 'n all the license communities have liminished more rapidly than in pro- hibition ones. From 1SSO to 1890 the debt of. Maine declined 37 per cent , while in Massachusetts the decrease was C5 per cent. Nebraska the . 3cat declined 42 per } cent while in r { . nsas it increased 12.G per cent. Speaking of the result of the Ala. bama election , Col. D. R. Burgess of .Mobile ! said ! : " 1 speak as a business man. The defeat of the prohibition amendment will add materially to the 'value of investments in this state. It .vill ; convince the financial interests of the : country that : the conservative men of the state have taken control of public affairs. " The prosperity of a community may be fairly gauged by the'average wages : : . paid elllp O'Cs. In Maine the average w a tr.es : paid } was $350 : ; in New Hamp- shire , $383 , wliile in Massachusetts the average was $ . ! ! )4. In Iowa the pay of the employes averaged $ 197 ; I in Minnesota , $180. In Kansas , $437 ; , in Nebraska , $545. ( Eleventh cen- sus. ) Every Nebraska county convention will be asked to pledge its delegates I to the state conventions to favor r t : state platform plank ] demanding the I I enactment by the legislature of a law I aroviding ; > for county elections in I which voters can cast ballots only for I a no-license policy. } : In such county elections , wet votes will be suppressed - I because the proposed bill specifically I says that they would not be effective. I The record of sales of Nebraska farms during 1000 ! ) shows that in forty- . five counties lands were sold at ? 100 per acre and upward. The record also shows that in seven different counties lands were sold at as high a figure as $150 per acre. When it is remembered that ten years ago $100 an acre was unknown in this state , something of the increase in land values will te appreciated. Sheriff Hoagland of Lancaster . county , in an interview published by the Lincoln Journal Nov. 14 , lOO'.i. : said : "I do not believe that liquor- using is the principal cause of crime. To say so is an exaggeration. I know that 95 ! , per cent of those who drink are not criminals. While nearly all criminals drink , many of the worst and shrewdest do not drink while they are committing a crime. I think a great many boys become criminals before they become drunkards. " i An honest county-option law would provide that all ballots for the license policy would be counted and given the full force and effect that tfvery legal ballot is entitled to exert ; and every ballot cast for the non-license policy would also be made effective. Such a law would give the voter the option of casting a ballot either way . and any law that would prevent the counting of wet ballots in such an election is shorn of all semblance of option. The use of the word option in connection with a one-sided elec tion is intended to deceive. - From tlie Portland ( Maine ) Daily Argus of Nov. 20 , 1900 ! ) ! ) , we take the following : "The utter failure of pro- , hibition to prohibit is only one of the counts in the indictments of the system. Its positive evils are even more demoralizing than its negative evils. What it does is worse than what it does not do. Law violation leading to general disrespect of all law ; debauching of politics ; the promotion of bribery and perjury ; the hypocrisy and humbug engendered by it ; the snivelling cant on the . one hand and the sneaking methods on the oth - er - these and many more evils aro what follow the futile attempt to com- " nel _ _ abstinence by . law.
