The State Herald sorely regrets to
announce the death of Hon. f. A. Gamble
at Jasper, Walker county, yesterday
Judge Gamble was long time probate
judge of the county. He was a man of
noble character and was greatly beloved
by the people of Walker county.

thing as bimetallism unless both silver

MUST GET FROM UNDER.
Home Officers Take a Hand in In
surance Affairs.

The anticipated has happened in in
surance circles and, as stated yester-
day morning would more than likely
be the case, a cablegram has been re-
ceived by the general managers in
San Francisco from the home offices of
the foreign companies instructing
them TO get from under, and do so in a
hurry. 1t was reported from the
coast last night that they are doing
so and there has been a marked de-
crease in the rate cutting. The end
is not far away, if all of the present
indications may be taken for anything,
and the general opinion among in
surance men is that within a compara-
lively short time tariff rates for in
surance will be the only prices quoted
by general or special agents. 1t is also
very freely intimated that several
heads are very loose among the gen.
eral managers who have been respon-
sible for the present condition of af
fairs. The Associated Press sent out
the following interesting dispatch last
night:
San Francisco, May 3.-The whole
sale rate cutting among insurance
men has moderated, due, it is said, to
directions from the head offices of both
English and eastern companies, where
this rate cutting has been regarded as
a species of insanity. Inspectors are
arriving al all the general offices, and
after the books have been Strengthened
as a result of recent feverish transac-
tions, it is understood there will be
many decapitations in the managerial
departments on the Pacific coast.

FIELD CULTURE OF THE sUNFLoW-
Err

Many of our staple food plants orig
mated in Europe and Asia, and We're
cultivated there ages before America
was discovered. says a writer in the
New York Tribune. We owe 10 the
Eastern Hemisphere our wheat, rye and
oats, our peas. BEANS cabbage. and
sugar beet. may we not also borrow its
Sunf1ower? We have raised 1t in our
dooryardS and flower gardens to a
sufficient extent to know that it takes
kindly to our climate and soil. What
obstacle. then, exists to its field Gull
ture?
Thus far, Russia, the great wheat
field of Europe, has ben the chief
area of sunflower culture, and the
highly remunerative results secured
there have led to inquiry and inves-
tigation on the part of few of our
progressive American planters. Mr..
Duncan, an extensive cotton planter,
visited Russia last year and upon his
own observation of the value of the
Sunf1ower, he sums up his concIu-
sions in these words:
after carefully examining every
feature of this new industry, as con-
Quoted by the Russians, l am induced
to believe that, with our improved
modes of farming, together with our
climate and soil, the cultivation of the
best paying crops that the average
American farmer can raise"
Another observer. whose thorough
knowledge of chemistry and botany
qualities him to. pronounce an opin-
ion, declares:
There is no plant known to the
chemist that enters more largely into
general use than the sunf1ower, its
only rival being the cotton plant. Inc
flower is grown principally for its oil,
but there is no portion of 1t, from root
to leaves, but has its USE" He might
have added that the sunt1ower, pelng
a much harder plant than cotton, has
a far wider range of habitat.
But let us glance at some of It's uses,
it's first and most important product
being the oil pressed from its seed. The
flavor purity and healthfulness OF
sunf1ower oil are now recognized
throughout Europe as making 1t a close
rival to that matchless product, pure
olive oil The former has some advan-
tages over our own cottonseed Oil, ana
many of us have learned how superior
to lard that liquid is when combined
and solidifed with beef suet.
The refuse seed is used to advantage
for fattening fowls. The oilcake is the
best food of its kind for cattle, both
for producing beef and milk. For the

BEAUTIFUL HOME SURROUNDINGS.

Every home owner should be land
scape gardener-good taste is very neces-
sary in laying out grounds so that they
will be attractive and present pleasing
effect at all seasons of the year. Ihere
is plenty of room for study and investiga-
ton, contemplation, and real good COM
mon sense regarding this matter. and no
''hit or miss" work will do.
The lay of the grounds must be studied,
the size and many other points must be
considered so that the planting of trees,
shrubs and plants may be intelligently
executed.
How many homes are disfigured by
poor and thoughtless planting that might
otherwise be made beautiful and attrac-
tive. On the other hand how many nat
urally bleak places are made inviting and
homelike and even grand by a judicious
laying off of the grounds and an intelli-
gent selection of trees and plants. A per-
see these difficulties. The beautiful simp-
~ displays the good taste of the one
who did the planning.
There is right way and wrong way
of doing things, and it behooves US all to
choose the right way in ali affairs of life.
1t is very often as easy, If not easier, to
do things right than. it is to do things
wrong. A lastly trimmed bonnet does
not need to cost more than a homely one.
and yet note the difference. An ill-cut
coat may cost as much as . perfect MT,
may be "all wool and a yard wide" but
where. oh where, is the style? Yes, a
good-looking horse if often spoiled by
poor harness, and even beautiful flowers
may be made to suffer by poor arrange
ments. Just ask the florist and he will
tell you why. Let us look at these facts
as they are, and study how to make our
places more beautiful. / believe 1t is our
dirty and privilege to do so. Pleasant
yards, fine lawns. choice trees, plants and
flowers when properly combined make
grand display. and to know how best to
make this display is the duty of every
American landlord.-John NJ. Wise, in
