PARKER HAS A BOOM.
Many Democrats Would Like to See
Him Run for President.
headerr Claim 10 See n Hope OF vic
tory In 10Of-Others Think New
York Jurist's Chances Are
Very Precarious.

Judge Alton b. Parker still holds a
prominent place as a democratic pres
idential possibility. From east, south
and west come demands that he be
the candidate of his party.
Many thought that because he was
not made the candidate for governor
by Hill last fall he would drop out
OF sight. But just the opposite re-
suit has happened, says the New York
Herald. Democrats all over the coun-
Try have apparently made up their
minds that Judge Parker is the leader
for winning democratic, campaign.
They think he can unite all elements
of the party. They believe he can carry
New York, Connecticut, New Jersey
and Indiana.
Democratic leaders all over the coun-
try are saying that had Judge Parker
been the candidate last fall he would
have been elected governor. They call
attention to the fact that Judge Par
ker is the only democrat since 1892
who has carried New York state in a
straight-out contest between the two
great parties. He was elected chief
justice of the court of appeals in 1897
over Judge Wallace, republican. While
it is true that the Tracy-Low fight
in New York city contributed to Judge
Parker's success, it is believed that he
would prove a strong candidate un-
der any circumstances.
Democratic members of congress
were hopeful last fall that Judge Par
ker would be nominated for governor.
A campaign in his behalf was carried
on quietly all over the country. In
the south and west, particularly, steps
were taken to acquaint the democrats
with Judge Parker's qualities as
candidate.

BETTER BUSINESS METHODS
SAVING the WASTES on the Farm an
Important Matter.

Some one has said that II he could
have what was wasted on an aver
age American farm he could live in
comfort This, | fear, is only too true
OF the average farmer. lie does not
make a study of his business. While
hundreds of dollars worth of the best
liquid fertilizer is running to waste in
his barns, or under the caves Of it, he
Is buying commercial fertilizer at $50
to $40 per ton to enrich his land. While
nature has given him rich and fertile
land he too often sees an alluring bag
of gold in the bountiful yield Of hay
and does not realize that he is robbing
his land of fertility when he sells hay.
These and a thousand other wastes
on the farm are brought to the farmers
notice 10y the discussions in the grange,
and the farmer must be dull indeed
who does not reap some benefit from
them. A fair and just exchange OF the
commodities of the farm for those of
the factory. the mine and the profess
slonal man must come about through
better business methods. The farmer
should act with others of his own pro-
fession and at least devote as much
energy to marketing his crop as to pro
ducing it.
There are many causes to remove be-
fore agriculture will receive fair and
just return for the capital and labor
invested in the industry but the remov-
al of these causes lies in the hands of
the farmer himself. He must cooper
ate with others in improving his bust
ness methods and must apply the same
thought, energy and business ability to
agriculture that are applied to any 9TH
er industry.-George A. Fuller.

Rural Free Mail Delivery.

AT no distant day the rural free mail
delivery service will require 10000 car
riers This is large number. When
we consider the brief time this service
has been in operation, its success may
be considered phenomenal. During
the past year over 1900 petitions have
been filed at Washington for this rural
service. This proves that the farmers
are waking up to their privileges. All
this is gratifying to the members of the
Order of Patrons of Husbandry, for
theirs was the first organization that
attempted to secure the establishment
of the free mail delivery service. In
deed it is the direct result of their eff
forts,

BIoomers Are Prohibited.

Gov. Thompson b. Ferguson, of
Oklahoma, has forbidden all girls
who attend the territorial education
al institutions the privilege of wear
ing bloomers while playing basket
ball. The reason for this, it is said,
is that a scandal was narrowly avert
ed recently because some young
women of certain school played a
game of basket ball in bloomers.
The governor is emphatic in his de-
nunciation of the garb and says the
girls are subjected to ridicule on ac-
count of the bifurcated apparel He
said he had notified the heads of all
territorial schools that there should
be no more basket ball playing by
Oklahoma girls in bloomoers.

THE FARMERS WIFE is very careful
about her churn. She scalds it thoroughly
after using, and gives it a sun bath to sweet
en- it. She knows that if her churn is sour
it will tant the butter that is made in it,
The stomach is churn. In the stomach
and digestive and nutritive tracts are per-
formed processes which are exactly akin to
the churning of butter. Is it not apparent
then that il this stomach churn is "sour ="
it sours all which is put into it ? The evil
of foul stomach is not the bad taste IN the
mouth and the foul breath caused by it, but
the corruption of the pure current of the
blood and the dissemination of disease
throughout the body. DR.. Perce's Golden
Medical Discovery makes the sour stomach
sweet. 1t does for the stomach what the
washing and sun bath do for the churn-ab-

JUDGE ALTON b. PARKER.

State Democrats)
while visiting St. Louis, met several
prominent Missouri democrats. With
one accord they began to say nice
things about Judge Parker. They
thought Hill ought to nominate him
for governor, and were positive that
he would be elected. If this resulted
they did not think there was any doubt,
if he were nominated for president in
1904, that he would be elected.
Judge Parker declined to encourage
the movement to nominate him for
governor. Democrats now say ii
makes no difference whether Mr..
Parker ran for governor or not, he
remains the ideal candidate for the
presidency, and energetic work is be-
ing done in his behalf in many states.
Friends of David b. Hill are also at
work, but so far the Hill propaganda
has not met with the same success as
Judge Parker's.
Texas is the latest state to come to
the front in behalf of the New York
popular judge. There is no antipathy
to Bryan in that state, but leaders
there do not think Bryan can win.
They are looking for some one who
can carry the doubtful states, and
they regard Judge Parker as the man.
Democratic papers all over the state
are making favorable comments about
Judge Parker. Senators Bailey and
Culbertson, Thomas Ball, and many
politicians are of the opinion that
the party ought to take Parker.
1t is reported that the same thing is
true of Georgia, Alabama, Florida,
Missouri, Indiana and Minnesota.
Much attention has lately been at
tached to Senator German, of Mary
land, and he has been repeatedly urged
TO look favorably on the movement to
get southern and western delegates
for himself. Senator German has re-
fused to encourage this scheme, pre-
ferring to remain in the senate.
