There has been all sorts of results
with wheat following potatoes, and
such results have largely followed
closely in accordance with the fertil-
izers used. Naturally. as wheat does
best on soil which has been well
worked and prepared, following the
potato crop with wheat offers every
chance for a good crop of the cereal,
but always provided the proper fertil-
izers are applied and in considerable
quantity, for it must be remembered
that the potato crop has not left much
OF the applied fertilizer for any fol-
lowing crop, and second. that the ac-
ton of the fertilizer will necessarily
be slower during the season in which
the wheat gets its start.
In following potatoes with wheat try
this plan. Rake off the potato tops
and with the harrow level the soil and
loosen it to the depth of two or
three inches; then roll the ground
and drill in the seed with 200 pounds
to the acre of some commercial fertil-
izer rich In phosphoric acid. The po-
tato tops may be spread over the
seed bed as mulch and will mater
tally help the wheat Rather radical
way of doing this work, perhaps, but
it has paid well with many farmers.

which is explained as follows:
There was but one office to be filled
at the State election of 1S97-that OF
chief judge of the Court of Appeals.
No State convention was held by
either party. the candidates being
FAMED by the State committees. Hence
there was little to stimulate political
activity in the rural districts, and
thousands of Republicans did not 90
to the polls.
But there was most exciting con-
test in the city of New York for
Mayor. Gen. Tracy was the Repubii-
can candidate, Van Wyck the Tam
many candidate. while Seth Low was
named by the Citizens Union. The
name of Judge Wallace. the Republi-
can candidate for Court Of APPEALS, ap-
peared on the regular party ticket, J
1t was not placed on the Low tick,
Parker's name was on the Van Wyck
ticket
The result was that while the total
vote for Mayor was 4S7, 400, the total
vote for Judge was only 413,549.
There were 1851 voters, presumably
supporters Of Mr.. Low, who did not
vote for any candidate for Judge,
largely because none was printed on
that ticket. Had Wallace's name APP
peared there, he would have defeated
Parker by 1900 plurality,
With these facts given due weight,
1t is clear that the claim is absurd
that Parker showed phenomenal pow
ers as a vote getter in the only State
campaign in which he was candi-
date. There is no reason to assume
that he can carry his State against

He was introduced by Col. S. G. Nc
Lendon, a lifelong Democrat, who is
a personal friend of this leader of an

Paradise Park had been built for him,
but he was suffering from sore throat
and could not speak out of doors. His
talk was delivered in conversational
style and only occasionally did he grow
vehement, though his wit caused en-
thusiastic shouts from his supporters.
His speech reiterated the arguments
and assertions made all over the
South. He condemned the Republic
cans for class legislation and their
theory of federal taxation. He said
that the 5000 national banks were o.
600 monsters that ought to be swept
off the earth.
He paid a high tribute to President
Roosevelt's personality. He declared

GOVERNOR THE GUEST AT
WAYCR0SS FAIR OPENING.

Waycross, Ca, Nov. 1.-The opening
day Of the South Georgia Fair was
noticeable for the entire lack Of the
confusion which is usually incident to
the first days of all fairs. When the
gates were thrown open to the public
at 9 o'clock this morning every exhibit
was in place and the several amuse-
ment attractions were ready for the
ruch which came later in the day. The
attendance has been larger than at
any previous fair here on the first
day.
Gov. Terrell arrived here from Sa-
vannah at noon, and went to the home
of Hon. John w. Bennett for luncheon.
At 2 o'clock the Governor was met at
the Phoenix Hotel by committee
the Waycross Fair Association. the
Mayor and aldermen Of the city of
Waycross and members OF the Cham
Der OF Commerce. Carriages were at
hand, and the entire party were driven
TO the fair grounds. The Governor
made a short address in the grand
stand, and later was escorted through
the building and over the midway. He

There were no races at the fair to-

Screams of the Burning Animals
Aroused the Residents-Fire Was
Undoubtedly of Incendiary Origin
One Having Occurred There in the
same Manner Some Weeks Ago.
The almost human screams of two
horses in the burning stable of Mr..
Herman f. Kuck. 1875 Anderson street,
east. at 2 o'clock this morning, aroused
many residents in that section to dis
cover the stable in the rear of Mr..
Kuck's residence in flames.
The alarm was quickly turned in,
but the entire building was in flames
before the apparatus arrived, and the
two valuable animals owned by Mr..
Kuck were Moderated.
The fire was undoubtedly Of incen-
diary origin, as it occurred In the
same manner as a fire on the same
premises several weeks ago. At that
time it was believed the fire, which
was extinguished before it gained
much Roadway. was the work of an
incendiary.
The stable in which Mr.. Kuck
housed two of the finest trotting horses
in Savannah, Pointer Hal and Pauline,
both with splendid records, is a wood
en- building. with stalls in the bottom
story and a fodder and grain loft in
the second story. When once on fire
the building burned rapidly, and the
horses were burned before they could
be liberated.
Mr.. Kuck priced both animals very
highly, having paid $1,000 for Pointer
Hal short time ago.
But for the good work of the fire
department the adjoining buildings
would have been destroyed. The
flames had reached to one of the out
buildings, but this was quickly extin-
guIshed on the arrival of the depart
ment. A. careful examination proved
that the fire had been started by some
one familiar with the premises.

That contest was expensive to both

the mining and distribution of coal had

their workmen. This is usual, not I'M
