LARGE QUANTITIES OF TREES
BEING DISTRIBUTED.
FRUIT DOES VERY WELL HERE
Last Year Was a Good Fruit Season ,
and Each Succeeding Year Promises
to be Better Orchards Come Into
Bearing In a Few Years.
X
Although Arhor day Is two weeks
In the future the tree planters of the
Tree Planters' state are Rotting busy
and the men with the trees to Hell arc
doing more business than a ward heel-
cr during a municipal campaign. In
addition to the big orders being han
dled by the local nurserymen , this Is a
big distributing point for foreign com
panies and agents arc here with car
loads of trees to bo distributed
throughout the towns and country and
arc malting deliveries to numerous
fanners who are starting orchards ,
groves and windbreaks.
The country Is running stronger to
fruit than ever before. It has been
proven that fnilt of all kinds will do
well In this section of the state , and
that orchards will hear moio quickly
here than In eastern states. Orchnrna
that were planted three to live years
ago , bore abundantb last season and
It will be but a few years when many
farmers will have a steady source of
Income from their fruit trees , vhlch
require a. minimum of care and pro
duce a maximum of enjoyment in the
possession of an abundance of good
fruit.
Trees that do well In this latitude In
any- part of the country have been
found to do well here. Considerable
care Is required to give them a right
start , but after the start is made there
Is very little care required to maintain
productive orchards that will grow ap
ples of all kinds , plums and cherries
In abundancci
Last year was an exceedingly good
cherry season and hundreds of bush
els of , this fruit was raised and mar
keted with profit to the orchardlsts.
It was a good apple year also , but the
mistake seems to have been made of
planting apples of early varieties , only ,
the market being swamped with this
perishable fruit , while of the winter
varieties the shipments continue to
be made from the east. More of the
later varieties are being planted , how
ever , and In a few years there will be
an abundance of these as well.
The advice of those who have made
a success of orcharding in this sec
tion of the country , both regarding
viirietles and methods of planting is
well worth considering by the Inexpe
rienced , and with this advice it should
be easy to advance this portion of Ne
braska in the fruit production line.

rick Henry's "Give me liberty or g've '
me death , " he plunged boldly Into The
mill race and It was the opinion of on
lookers that he had chosen death ? .s
the water was deep , the bank steep
and the footing precarious , but by his
own efforts ho finally succeeded In
emerging from the cold bath and af
terward proved more docile and con
tent to assume the environment that
had been chosen for him.

KOCH DETECTIVES.
Sleuth Agency Men Search Cities and
Country for New Evidence.
Now-Ulm , Minn , April 5. Detec
tive Chandler , accompanied by two
other employes of the Thlel agency In
St. Paul , arrived In Now Ulra yester
day afternoon. He Is retained by the
defense In the Koch murder cane- and
has made frequent trips to this city ,
necurlng additional evidence for I ho
trial In Mankato.
Chandler and his assistants wcr
driven ever the road between this city
and Mankato to Investigate as to the
coat and trousers picked up by a
farmer n few miles south of this city
the morning after the murder. Tlio
fanner who found the articles nay * *
they were lying by the roadside and
had the appearance of having been
thrown away by Homo ono traveling
along the highway.
The theory advanced Is that the
murderer escaped from the nut hurl
ties the evening of tlio crlmo and
boarded a freight train at some of the
smaller stations between this city mill
Mankato. In fact , a stranger was seen
the following morning after the murdu
in the ralltoad yards at Maukato. and
It Is known that ho rode a freight train
from this city. He was not appro
bonded and the defense Is working
upon the theory that ho might have
been the murderer. Chandler and bis
assistants will remain In New Ulin
and vicinity several days.

Bi-ennlal Elections Law.
The biennial elections law has been
approved by Governor Mickey , and It
will now become a law , pending a test
of its constitutionality in the supreme
court. While the law has many ad
vocates in the state , it has some fierce
opponents , among them being Editor
Rosewater of the Omaha Bee. It Is
contended that-the law Is contrary to
the letter and spirit of the constitution ,
which provides for a state election
every year. A warm fight will be put
up by those opposed , before It will bo
allowed to become effective.
