He will he shot probably early to-morrow morning. Governor Spry said in his telegram he is satisfied the President's request is based on a misconception of the facts or that there is some reason of an international nature that the Pres ident lias not disclosed, and that fur ther postponement would be an un warranted Interference with the course ol' justice, and that he cannot lend himself or Ids office to such in te rl'erence. The live men appointed to execute Ilillstrom have been directed to re port at the prison al <i o'clock to-mor row morning. Jos. Ilillstrom was convicted ol' the murder of John (?.

The shooting was witnessed by Merlini Morrison, another son. 14 years old. According to this boy's story, which was corroborated on many points by other evidence, two masked men entered the store with drawn pistols and, saying "We've got you now!" opened dre on Morrison, who fell mortally wounded with a bullet through his chest. Ailing Mor rison ran to an ice box in the store, seized a :?8-calibro revolver and flied. Helote the boy could shoot again, he fell pierced by three bullets and died almost Instantly.

Ilillstrom, also known as Joe Hill, was arrested three days after the shooting on information given by a doctor near Murray, Utah, two and a half miles south of the scene of the crime. Ilillstrom staggered into the doctor's home two hours after Hie shooting, with a large bullet wound through his left lung. He told the doctor he had been shot In a quarrel over a woman and reuuested thal nothing be said retarding his visit or wound The doctor, not having heard of the murders, treated the wound anti took Ilillstrom to a house where he had been staying for several days. News of the murders recalled the case to the doctor and he informed the officers. The doctor lound an auto matic pistol, of the same calibre as shells found in the grocery after the shooting, in Hillstrom's pocket. Ilill strom threw the weapon away after leaving the doctor's home.

Haydon, in Progressive Farmer. ) The object of a home garden should he ID reduce the increasing high cost ot living, and on the tarin nothing can do moro to attain this end than a garden that is wisely planned and managed. Some form yt' hot hod or cold tia mo is necessary in order to obtain frosh vegetables for uso every day of the year. These iran?es are not luxuries. They are cheap, easily constructed, may be permanent, and are easily managed Quick maturing crops like lettuce and radishes aro easily grown. In fact, those hods ma> bo advantageously used to prolong tho season or to mature crops in advance of their normal season. lt is useless to order plants each voar for the spring crop. Cabbage, egg pla??, pe plier, tomato, sweet po tato, cucumber, squash and water melon sleds may bo sowed six to eight weeks bet?r? danger of frost is over. Tile plants are hardened off and transplanted to the Hold tis soon ?is soil and climatic conditions aro right. Hotbeds and cold frames are of tho same dimensions, the only difference in their construction being that the hotbeds aro supplied with some form of bottom heat. The application of heat transforms the cold frame into a hotbed, which is recognized as a true forcing structure. Locate frames convenient to the house, at some point whore members of tho family will pass each day. This will insure attention, Select a well drained location, ono with a southern or southwest exposure. Protection from the north or wost by some building, fence, or wind-break is de sirable. Nearness to water supply is also essential. Any <oie handy with a hatchet and . ;;v. " ill experience no difficulty in constructing either of these beds. The back and front of the frames are made of I xl 2-inch boards. All frames are constructed in sections :ixti inches to conform to standard hot bed sash. It will bo necessary then to place 2x2-inch planks every throe feet to support the sash. For hardy plants rainas has boon found to be as valuable as glass The chief objec tion to canvas is that the light is ex cluded on real cold days. Canvas will last only several years. while sash, if properly cared for, may bo used Indefinitely. In constructing a hotbed, unfor mentcd manure ?3 always used as a source ol' artifiicla] heat. Horse ma nure is best; especially that obtained from animals fed on grain. After niau ii re is packed ill, from four to six inches of rich garden loam is added to the frame. Sashes should then be placed on to hasten fermen tation. Seeds are not planted until the temperature in the bods has fallon to 7? to.80 degrees Fahrenheit. Watering is an Important factor. Seedlings are often attacked by fun gus diseases duo to injudicious wa tering. Tho only time to water plants is in the early morning on fair days. An application at night lowers the temperature unduly, thus making the plants more susceptible to disease at tacks. Ventilate after each watering to dry foliage and surface of soil. To ventilate, place a block of wood or a brick under each sash. If seed are sowed in drills that permit cultiva tion, stir soil to maintain a das! mulch.
