single eyes. This plant belongs to the
great sunfiower tribe, and is called
Helianthus tuberosus. A recent report
of one of the experiment stations states
that in fatening hogs excellent results
have been secured, by giving them the
run of the artichoke plot, and supple
menting this food with small amount
of cornmeal each day. Artichokes will
persist in the ground from year to year,
wherever the soil is covered with fair
amount of snow during the winter. In
case it was thought that the soil was
too poor to give good returns, it might
be enriched by sowing in the drill, at
the time of planting, superphosphate
at the rate of eight hundred to ten hun
dred pounds per acre. The feeding
value of the Jerusalem artichoke has
not been investigated to the exteE> that
its importance deserves.

standard. The standard is the most
novel feature about this machine. 1t
serves to shorten the draft and elevate
the draw rope to the arc of circle, the
derrick being pivoted in the center of
gravity, thereby minimizing the power
required to elevate. The draft is the
same Mt all points until the hay is de
livered. One horse does the elevating.
1t is claimed that the new invention
will do an equal amount of work in less
than one-fourth the time required by
the old-style derricks. Its capacity is
estimated at from 80 to 100 tons day.

In this boosted majority, the
Democratic machine has counted
practically every negro vote in the
county solidly Democratic. The
same thing has occurred in every
other negro county. In short, the
negro vote in the negro counties has
either voted solidly Democratic or
the Democratic machine has solidly
stolen them and counted them ey-
eryOne Democratic.
The State Democratic banner
waves in Halifax, simply because
there was more fraud and rascalitv
to the square inch there than any,
where else.
