SPLIT COMMITTEE FAILED TO VOTE
Followers of Mir. Mckenzie Organize Another Executive Committee and Abide by Decision of the
 Supreme Body.

wetumpka, April 15.--(Special.)--A meeting of the executive committee of Fillmore Democrats was held here today to. count the votes cast in last Saturday s primary election in the case of F. l.. Mo- Kenzle over whose nomination for the constitutional convention there has been much feeling. As a result the commit tee split and new committee was form ed. One committee recognizes MT. Will jams as the nominee and the other MT. Mckenzie.
 When the original comittee was called to order a resolution was offered abiding by the action of the state committee in declaring F. L. Mckenzie the Democratic nominee of this county for delegate to the constitutional convention.
 substitute was offered that the com mittee proceed to count the vote that was cast in the primary election held last Saturday The substitute was adopted by a vote of 10 to g. the chair casting the deciding vote. There was no primary Saturday in six out of the eighteen. beats in the county, and the twelve beats where a primary was held there was a total vote of less than six hundred votes. over half of these being boiled in three beats, six, eight and eighteen.
 MT. McKe enzie, having been declared by +A ha ha q r nominee from this county, he nor his friends took any part in the primary. There are about 5000 white Democratic voters in this county and MT. Williams had no opposition in the primary Satur- day and received something less than six hundred votes
 New Committee Named.
 After the committee adjourned the nine members of the committee that were in favor of endorsing and upholding the ac- ton of the State Committee met in the court house and reorganized the commit tee by electing J. B. McFadden chairman and D. D. Askew secretary and proceed ed to fill the vacancies on the committee. Then a campaign committee was chosen and instructed to institute a vigorous campaign at once.
 The following resolutions were unani- mousy adopted:
 Resolved. That in the absence of party conventions this committee recognizes the State Democratic Executive Committee as tn highest authority in the State and in accordance with the finding of said State Committee. this committee declares MT. F. L. Mckenzie to be the nominee of the Democratic party of Fillmore County for delegate to the constitutional convention.
 .'Resolved, That this committee most emphatically condemns any and all frauds practiced in white primaries, and we earnestly appeal to the Democrats of EI- more County to sustain us in this strug- gle for party in politics.

 Separating the Ssxe'
 Farm Poultry: A great deal Is said cf the necessity for separating the sexes. some insisting that it should be done as soon as sex can be deter mined In Aslatics it Is not often necessary until the chicks are pretty well grown. In fowls of the Mcdlter- ranean varieties separation must be made quite early. In American Varie- ties it depends on the stock and stage of development of the individual cock erels Frequently the removal Of few of the cockerels disposed to an noy the bullets makes It possible to keep males and females pcaceably to- gether until we'll along In the season. In many cases the separation can be made early as we'll as later. the chicks being divided into small lots anyway. and it being just as easy to separate by sex. but where it Is not convenient to separate the sexes they may often be kept together by removing those cockerels disposed To make trouble.
 What Is ot much greater importance than separation according 10 sex Is assortment according to size. Except in very rare cases when chicks or every size are kept together. the smaller ones have to take lot ot roughing from the others. Whenever any of the chicks In flock are seen to be suffering from this sort cf treat ment they should be removed from IL. For this same cause the best develop ment of all the good cockerels one has ! Is hard to secure As the birds mature 1t is seen that one oT two (those which rule the fleck) stand out superior to the others in general condition. Re- move these and one or two others VIII quickly surprise you by the rapldity with which they shape up. The best way Is to keep every male bird hy himself or with few hens or puilsts after he begins to assert his individual Iity. Not many breeders have facili- ties for doing this. The next best way is to keep them In as small fiocks as rossible and have them so nearly matched In size and strength that none will be imposed on. Most breeders keep entirely too many cockerels over to sell for stock purposes. The birds that sell for S2 or S3 early In the spring IL does not pay to winter. yet thousands of them are carried through every season. and thousands go to the not in March and April every year which ought to have gone to the irving pan seven or eight months earlier.

TWO BOAT CREWS DROWNED
Steamer Palena Reports Disaster at

SAN FRANCISCO.-The steamer Palena brings a report which later may prove to be the herald of terrible disaster al Acajutla. While anchoTed In the roadstead of Acajutla.

 AS near as Captain Moon of the Palena could make out, the boat from the Ivy was taking an officer ashore. while the one from the San Juan was taking Colonel John Stewart, the Mall company's agent. ashore. One ot the ships officers and four men manned the boat and all went we'll until the San Juan's boat and the Ivys boat were near the beach Then those on the Palena saw an immense breaker roll ing m toward the shore. lt caught the Ivy's boat and threw 1t against the San Juan's boat. and both were rolled over and over and finally disappeared CaDtain Moon fears that not a soul Tn either boat was saved.

Spraying in Bloom

The Utah Agricultural Experiment Station has been experimenting Tn the matter of spraying in bloom and the fruit setting of sprayed blossoms. Bull letin No. l96 gives the experiments made. and summarizes results as fol- lows:
 Since insects and diseases were practically harmless in the. orchards under test by either station, nothing can be said concerning the effect Of spraying in bloom or emitting the spraying al that time as helping or hlndering in the repression Of these pests
 "A careful study of the orchard data Of both stations shows some apparent ly conflicting results: and plainly in- dicates that long and painstaking study of the question. under varied conditions, will have to be made be- fore the exact effect of spraying in bloom upon crop yields can be deter mined.
 Aided by the laboratory studies. however. it seems certain that spraying in bloom destroys some of the blos- soms and might. in some seasons, se- riously lessen the crop. In other years. though. when blossoms are very plentiful. the thinning of the fruit by death of the flowers from the Bordeaux mixture may be of advantage; espe- cially fl the spray be applied at such time that the strong center blossoms have passed the danger point and the later side blossoms of the clusters only perish.
 No evidence has been found to sup port the view of some growers that the spraying actually helps the flowers

Movable Fire Sheds

By q plan now being put into effect in Yakima valley. Wash. 1t Is proposed to fully protect the big orchards of Central Washington from frosts which sometimes lnjure trees and buds in april and May. r. J. Flint and Rev. F. Walden have built movable fire sheds. to drag about the orchards with horses during nights when a severe freeze Is expected. The fuel used will be wood and possibly damp straw with the object of creating a dense smoke throughout the orchards.
 The plan is working successfully and other orchardists are preparing to put 1t into operation. If oil is found in that State. crude petroleum will be introduced as in California. Yakima valley alone has 5000 acres in orchards, practically all of which Is intended for commercial purposes. \ year ago early peaches and apricots were se- verely damaged by frost. causing some growers to repant their orchards to winter arples and other hardy fruits The smoke scheme will obviate the necessity of making this expensive change.
