COULDN'T FIND A CANDIDATE.
Third District Alabama Republican,
Are Looking for One.


Columbus, Ga. Sept. 15.-The Re-
publicans of the Third congressional
district of Alabama held a convention
this morning in Girard. They made
no nomination for Congress, but APP
pointed a central committee with au-
thority to nominate a candidate for
Congress when some one was found
who would be willing to accept the
honor. They offered the nomination to
Nj. w. Garden of Opelika, but he de-
clined the honor at present, hoping
later on to find a more available man
to make the race. The main object
of the convention seems to have been to
elect a new district committee and
organize it anew so as to be in shape
for 1904. Resolutions were passed in
dorsing President Roosevelt's admin
istration.

Ten year. Ago ana Now.

There is no better antidote for de-
spondency than to take measure or
your own community as 1t was ten
years ago and as 1t is today, unless
you live in an unrepresentative and
stagnant community. You will be
likely to find the roads or the streets
better than they were, the railroad
service, the postal service, possibly
even the telegraph and the telephone
service better You will observe better
houses, more attractive grounds The
people are better clad or more are wei
clad. Inside their houses you Will ind
more books or, better. more bathrooms,
better lights and better furniture. A
larger proportion of children and youth
are receiving good training at better
schools. All this means more than
prosperous years. 1t means a higher
level OF life and stronger ambition.
The we'll being of the people or the
United States is rising higher and es-
pecially is it diffusng itself wider.

cro.. Breeding Vegetables.

Some results obtained in cross breed
ing corn, dwarf lima beans. tomatoes,
eggplant, cucumbers and satisfy are
noted by Professor Halsted of New
Jersey. With the lima beans the cross
was made between Henderson and
Burpee varieties, the idea being to COM
bIne the prolifcacy of the former with
the large size and good quality Of the
latter. The Burpee was used as the
mother plant In each instance. The
crossed plants were remarkably vigor-
GUS and productive. Some closely ap-
preached the Henderson and others the
Burpee 1t is believed that by further
crossing or inbreeding profitable new
sorts may be secured. A hybrid was
also obtained by crossing the ordinary
cultivated satisfy, having violet purple
flowers, with the wild species, having
yellow flowers, which promises to be
more resistant to blight and mold than
the ordinary satisfy.

TOBACCO PLANT BED.
How Northern Grower Would
Make It-Insect Pests.

How Northern Grower Would
Make It-Insect Pests.
The plant bed used by northern to-
bacco growers is not really a hotbed,
but cold frame, and is constructed as
follows, says a correspondent Of Farm
and Fireside:
Select piece of fertile ground as free
from weed seed as possible, about five
feet wide and the desired length.
Around this construct a frame of one
inch boards, ten or twelve inches wide,
sinking them a couple of inches In the
ground, leaving eight or ten inches
above the surface. Then, commencing
about two and half feet from either
end, drive a row of stakes four or five
feet apart through the center of the
bed letting them stand about six or
eight inches higher than the boards
around the edge. Nail strip one by
two inches along on top of the stakes
and cover the frame with good heavy
muslin. Sew loops along the edge Of
muslin about one foot apart These
loops can be hooked over nails driven
in the sides Of the boards. This con-
struction will give all the protection
necessary for the plants.
The soil should be made perfectly
fine and smooth on top. Sow the seed
broadcast. Sow slightly thicker IL you
set with a transplanter than If set by
hand, SO that the plants will grow
higher and have a longer stem. The
bed must be kept free from weeds.
BY making the bed narrow it allows
one to reach the center from the edge
of the bed Care must be taken to
keep the plants sufficiently moist, but
too much water will rot them. If you
wish to hurry the growth, water the
plants with manure water, chicken ma
nure being as good as any.
If fleas get in the bed, they can be
disposed Of by scattering cornmeal
mixed with paris green over the bed.
When the plants get large enough to
transplant, they should be hardened
by removing the cover on nice days,
leaving 1t off more and more until the
plants are ready to use. About forty
feet length of bed is not too much an
acre If enough plants are not fur
nished at the first pulling, the bed
should be at once thoroughly soaked
with water and covered with canvas
to bring on the small plants remaining.

horticulturist, offers an interesting ex-
PLANTATION OF the tendency OF some seed
potatoes to form little potatoes in the
ground without sending up any plant
above ground. There was considerable
failure OF the crop in part Of Lebanon
county last year on account of such
seed. and most potato growers have
suffered loss at some time in this way;
We know that overheating Of the seed
in winter storage will cause this trou-
bic. but the damage to the seed may be
due to other causes. Mr.. Snavely be-
lieves that the potatoes used for plant
ing had failed to develop right the year
before. The season had been an un-
favorable one, and the eyes, which are
really buds Of an underground STEM
felt the effect of poor vitality In the
vines above ground. Instead of devel.
oping normally, they were fitted to
throw out stems for new potatoes, and
hence the failure to get vine from
them when planted. In such cases the
method of storing the seed through
winter had nothing to do with the crop
failure.-A. Agee in National Stock

re,enbon,ns ON Wire Fence.

Quite a number Of communities In
Colorado are putting in private tele-
phone lines this spring by utilizing the
common wire fences. and the scheme is
proving emineltly successful, says
Denver Field and Farm. The cost or
construction Is very small, as fence
wire is used just as the farmer stapled
1t to the posts. Where a break occurs
1t is necessary to put in stay brace by
wrapping with small wire. At cross
road or gate post should be placed on
each side of the road high enough to
allow any kind Of vehicle to pass I'M

carried across. 1t should be tightly
wrapped to the fence wire at each post,

FARM FACTS.
Potatoes After Corn-A Tendency OF
| Some Seed Potatoes.

Potatoes After Corn-A Tendency OF
Some Seed Potatoes.
In eastern Pennsylvania potatoes are
planted on a corn stubble more COM
monty than on sod land. They displace
some oats in the crop rotation, being
followed by wheat and then clover and
timothy. Such a rotation Is good one
where there is enough fertility. The
manure can so on the sod for corn. and
then both sod and manure are rotted
and mixed thoroughly with the soil be-
fore the potatoes are grown, giving n
brighter and thinner skin tuber than is
got when the sod or manure Is fresh.
Corn stubble land is looser for the
formation of the tu5ers. In this sys-
TEN of cropping commercial fertilizers
are used on the potatoes, and the land
is left in good condition for wheat.
Where oats do not pay and wheat does
not follow corn well this plan Of fol-
lowing corn with potatoes. fertilizing
Wen, has much in its favor.
