DIR. Slocombe is in receipt Of communi-
cations ccommending him from all parts
of this state.
DR.. Slocombe aayed Rockefeller with
out mercy, denouncing him as theft
and scoundrel of the blackest heart.
1t is difficult to conceive more bitter
denunciation of Rockefeller.
At the beginning DR.. Slocombe called
him hypocrite; at the end thief.
He depicted Rockefellerism as a
mighty peril to the nation and then
said:
"The thing on exhibition is not a
meek and noble man of whom the world
is not worthy, doing a great and good
work which mis- own generation can not
appreciate, but for which a grateful
posterity will build him monuments.
The thing on exhibition is conscience
less, unblushing corporate greed prey

corrupting morals, debauching public
institutions, ignoring or defying public

''Not only in West Kentucky are dis

but in all parts of the State can ex-

''When the name of Congressman
Ollie James was first sounded in con-

all over the State, realizing the value of
such man for governor rallied to him
and urged that ne allow his name to be
considered with the race for governor.

lNFERTILE EGGS.
Care Should Be Taken to Detect Them
and to Remove Them from
the Nest.

Infertile eggs may be used for the
feeding of young chicks if they are re-
moved from the nests after the hens
have been incubating but one or two
days. The poultry owner can easily
detect the infertile eggs by Gambling
them, and this is a thing that should
be always done. BY it the eggs that
would be rendered worthless in few
weeks can yet be used as mentioned
above, while it is then possible to put
other eggs under the hen. This in
creases the possibilities of good hatch.
What is true of the sitting hen is also
as true if an incubator is used.
1nfertile eggs are a great source of
loss in the Matching operations of the
farm. Sometimes whole sitting of
eggs is found to be infertile. The sooner
this is found out the better. An egg that
is fertile will appear cloudy after being
exposed to incubation heat for two days,
while the infertile eggs will still be
clear.

out of the ranks that march on Memorial
day to pay the tribute to those who
fought to the music of fife and drum dur

is as widely observed as ever. Then, too.
the changed character and Significance
OF the observance are demonstrated by
the fact that the flag is no longer carried
at half staff, but from the peak floats the
Stars and Stripes in the air-and this

giving upon Sam was marvellous. He
had always been SO close that he had
never possessed the remotest idea. of the
pleasure which generosity could afford.
He not only gave the thousand dol
