The Advertiser feels that il has done

were suggested to be selected from the

owing to the contestants being in nearly
every case women who were opposed TO
women acting as judges.
These suggestions were given the latter
part of May. while plenty of rain was yet
in sight, and the prospect of an unlim-
tied growth was assured. consequently
the persons who suggested the inspection
for this time were guided entirely by the
conditions Of the weather al that time.
II might be well to say that the said
weather was uniform throughout Mont
gomery. and that as far as that part OF It
is concerned, one Jared as well as an

He held the bottle over the can and
used a dipper to pour the milk,
which stopped over and ran down the

Bottles are thus used which have

REPUBLICAN TICKET.
For Congress, Fifth District:
CHARLES N. FOWLER,
OF UNION.
THE NEXT SHERIFF.

A prominent Democrat in an inter-
view with the editor of the Chronicle
on Wednesday said with reference to
the contest for Sheriff next November
that 1.-THE Democrats Of MORRIS
County intend to put up their strong
est candidate, candidate so strong
that the Republicans will be forced
to name their best man and even then
we hope to beat them.
We have no doubt that this gentle
man voices the sentiment of his party
and that They intend to make q
very vigorous effort to elect a Demo
cratic sheriff. OF course the Demo-
Gratis cannot carry the county for any
office if the Republicans nominate
first class candidates for office. The
office of Sheriff in particular is one
that calls for man of experience,
one with clear record and for whom
no apologies have to be made in any
direction. A failure to nominate
such a man will give the Office to
the Democrats.
That would be particularly u''for-
tunate at this time. Our county
takes its place for the first time in q
new Congressional District The
Republican candidate for Congress is
a man of high national reputation
and the candidates for county officers
should be men who will add to the
strength of the ticket rather than
detract from it.

CULTIVATION OF BEANS.
Use Seed from Reliable Sources Only
and Plant in Thick, Well
Drained Loan.

Nocrop pondsmore readily good
soil and cultivation than beans. The
soil best adapted to it is light, rich,
well drained loan, which was MANFRED
for the previous crop. If too rank
manure is used it is apt to make the
plant run too much to vine. Beans are
extremely sensitive to both cold and
wet, and it is useless to plant them
before the ground has become dry and
warm. The largest return will result
from planting in drills from two to
three feet apart, and leaving the plants
two to six inches apart in the row. Up
to the time of blossoming they should
have frequent shallow cultivation, but
any cutting of the roots after the
plants come into bloom is likely to
cause the blossoms to blast and so cut
off the crop. Remember that the cul-
tiyation of beans should always be
very shallow, and that it is useless to
expect a crop from field so poorly
prepared as to need deep stirring after
planting. Varieties should be selected
so as to give a succession both of string
and green shelled beans. The wax
podded varieties viii degenerate into
a mixture of green and wax podded
plants unless there is constant at
tention given to the removing of any
green podded plants which may APP
pear in the seed crop, and the con-
slant selection of plants of the highest
type for stock seed. Hence, it is espe-
cialIv imDOrtant TO use seed from re-
liable sources only.-Midland Farmer.
