FIFTH CONVENTION.
For Kentucky Development Oct.
1912 Promises To Be a
Great Meeting.

The time for holding the Fifth
State Development Convention is
growing near. and prospects are
that it will be a great meeting.
Arrangement at Winchester for the
occasion are nearing completion.
The program, however, is being held
up to await the filing of one or two
places. and will not be made public
until completed, though an excel
lent one is assured.
The Winchester Commercial Club
is going to do all it can to make the
Convention a pleasant as well as
q profitable occasion. The excur
sion to Bea.tyville, there to exam
ire the coal mines, gas wells and
lumber plants, and to be entertain
ed with a barbecue given by the cit
liens of that enterprising mountain
town, will be delightful trip espe-
cially for the delegates from the
central and western part of the
State.
the railroads have fixed a rate Of
one fare plus % cents for the round
trip from all points in Kentucky to
Winchester on account of the Con-
yention. This is a liberal concession
on their part, and is actuated by the
interest which the railroads them
selves have in the work Of the De-
velopment, as they realize that a
greater development Of the resour-
ces Of the State means a correspond
ing Increase in their traffic.
Delegates to the Convention this
year are not confined to those ap-
pointed by the county judges, may.
ors and commercial clubs. but any
one wishing to attend may be APP
pointed a delegate by addressing the
Secretary. Mr.. P. j. Altizer, at Win
chester, who will have the appoint
ment made, and have invitation,
ticket, program, etc, sent in regu-
lar course.
This county is as good as the best,
and our citizens are just as active,
progressive and patriotic. Let US
show this by sending large delega-
ton 10 the Convention this fall.

Manganese Fertilizer.

Oats. peas, beans and barley
grow better, it appears, when
they have been fortified with
pure sulphate of manganese. The
small quantities of Manganese
shown by chemical analysis in
animal and vegetable substances
have been looked upon as acct
dental and unnecessary. Recent
Investigations, however, have
tended to prove that the metal is
indispensable to the living cell
and Mr.. Bertrand, a French ex
perimenter, has found that pure
sulphate of manganese has a
marked fertilizing effect, an ap
plicatiOn of about 80 pounds to
the acre giving an increase of
Do per cent. in a crop of oats
The crop from the manganese
fertilizer, however, is shown by
analysis to contain no more of
the metal than the crop from
other soil, the plant seeming to
require a certain definite proper
ton.

milk, properly prescribed, Is one
of the most valuable resources of
the physician. Infants cannot
all be fed alike.
Even those of the same age
and weight cannot always be fed
on the same formula. Ii is the
digestive capacity of the child
which should be- the governing
factor. In speaking OF the pre-
ventivc measures in the treat
mcnt of summer diarrhea, the
writer advocates laboratory
milk or good clean milk. The
mother ought To be educated in
the care of the child when diar-
rhea occurs.
AS soon as this condition ap-
pears teaspoonful of castor oil
should be given To the patient,
but no food. Whisky in waterand
rice or barley water are also in
dicated. Only half the quantity
of milk that the child can take
in health should be fed TO it.
The mothers should be- taught
the importance of various by
gicnic measures. and should Ice
instructed in the value of fresh
air, water excursions, clothing
for the children. bathing. and
the proper care of the napkins.

supposed to be careful with his seeds
but very few farmers knoH the con-
dition Of their seeds until the time
comes when they are required for
planting, and then the farmers are
too much hurried to do anything
with them.

Mr.. Bryan Should Tell About II.

lSAlt Lake city Tribune.
Mr.. Bryan will comedirect from
England when he returns. England
was a hard and fast Tariff country
until she had more outside, more
ships than any other five nations,
more money than all the rest of the
world, and more skilled workmen
than any other five nations. She
had, too, her mines of iron, tin and
coal close to her manufactures; she
had ample seaports all around the
tight little ISLE" and colonies in
every zone. Then having the world
by the throat, she tore down her
Tariff barriers and announced that
the only enlightened economic policy
was unrestricted Free-Trade. A
wolf, in the same spirit, might make
a declaration to a flock of lambs.
She bankrupted every nation that
accepted her advice; she stranded
this country more than once; she
worked her own colonies to a finish.
But now, when Mr.. Bryan returns,
let him go out into the country and
tell great agricultural masses how
he found the same class in England.
They are not only stranded, but
their brains are breaking down, as
shown when a draft was made upon
them for soldiers for the Boer war.
Lest it might cost her artisans a lit
tie more for food and compel a little
advance in their wages, England
permitted our prairie States to send
bread and meat to England and sell
it at prices to starye her own agri-
cultural population, until national

FISH is A PEDESTRIAN.
Queer Creature of Mexico That
Climbs a Wall Like
Fly.

Axolotl, or fish with legs, IL
the name given 10 a queer crea
ture of Mexico and Texas, which
can swim like fish or run on &
smooth wall like a fly; can live
and grow when kept CONSTANT,
in water like true fish, and YET
can live and grow entirely ava,
from water excepting a little tt
drink like a true air-breathlns
animal.
All this he can do because ma
ture has given him two seats oi
breathing power. He has gills
looking like branches of soft
coral. growing from each side o;
his thick neck, which enable him
TO breathe in the water, and he
has lungs which, like those of o
sheep or a squirrel or a man, ear
breathe only in the free, clear all
of heaven. Either set can be
used as he pleases.
Fish are drowned when taker
from the water into the air, and
animals when put even for a
short time under water, but the
axOlOtl cannot be drowned any
where. Yet he is nowhere safe.
for the inhabitants OF the places
where he is found think that his
flesh is very good to eat and
catch great numbers, which they
cook in various ways.

ASA CONTRADICTORY CAUSE
Great Benefits teaped by The
Farmer as the Result OF 4
Protective Tariff.

Ii is well to mention occasionally
as Speaker Cannon did at Danvile,
that under the Republican Protect
i've policy the United States now
produces third of the worlds man
ufactures and agricultural products.
Some Democrats declare that the
Tariff never helps the farmer. They
are rash IN making any such asser-
ton. This gives the Republicans
chance to show that the diversi-
fication of industries which the
Tariff has created has raised
up a home market for the farm
err which has advanced the value
of everything which he has to sell,
while the competition among the
factories has cheapened everything
that the farmer has to buy. This is
the principal reason why farming is
far more profitable now than it was
in the Democratic days before the
Rebellion. Farming is far more
profitable. likewise, than it was in
the Democratic days of lS93-97. when
the country had its latest and sever
est financial panic. In speaking Of
the country's prosperity from any
view point the tariff is sure to pre-
sent itself as a contributory cause u:
the good times. Under sway, in
Buchanan 5 days, the aggregate Of
the country's manufactures was
slight. This was an agricultural
country almost solely at that time.
A consequence the farmer got less
for his products than he does now.
Our manufactured articles in those
days were furnished by English
chiefly, and the American farmer
and the rest of the American constr
mers paid more for them than they
do now for the home products. The
Tariff has benefited producer and
consumers. There are more wage
workers in proportion to the aggre-
gate population in 1906 than there
were in 1860, the last year of Demo
cratic power prior to the Rebellion.
There are more wageworkers than
there were in 1886, the last year Of
the last Democratic president. The
wages in each case have made great
advances. Here are some Of the rea-
sons why the Republicans in the cam
paigns of 1906 and 1908 will champion
the maintenance. of a tariff which will
give adequate Protection to every
American product which needs Pro
lection. Speaker Cannon at Damille
gave excellent reasons why the
American people will, in 1905, elect
a Republican congress to continue
the magnificent work which is being
done by the Republican party.
No one would buy a sailboat with
sails that could not be reefed.

but England lives by trade and her

Treating Wrong Disease.

Many times women call on their family
physicians, suffering, as they imagine,
one from dyspepsia, another from heart
disease, another from liver or kidney
disease, another from nervous exhaustion
or prostration, another with pain here and
there, and in this way they all present
alike to themselves and their easy-going
and Indifferent, or over-busy doctor, sep
arate and distinct diseases, for which he,
assuming them to be such, prescribes his
pills and potions. In reality, they are all
only symptoms caused by some uterine
disease. The physician, ignorant of the
cause of suffering, encourages this prac-
tice until large bills are made. The suf-
fering patient gets no better, but probably
worse, by reason of the delay, wrong
treatment and consequent complications.
A proper medicine like DIR. Pierce's Fa-
vorite Prescription, directed TO the cause
would have entirely removed the disease,
thereby dispelling all those distressing
symptoms, and instituting comfort in
stead of prolonged misery. 1t has been
well said, that "a disease known is half
cured.n
scientific medicine, carefully devised by
an experienced and skillful physician,
and adapted to woman's delicate system.
1t Is made of native medicinal roots and
Is perfectly harmless in its effects in any
condition of the system.
AS powerful invigorating tonic rFa-
vorite Prescription imparts strength to
the whole system and to the organs dis
tinctly feminine in particular. For over
worked, rworn-out," rundown" debili-
tated teachers, milliners, dressmakers,
seamstresses, rshop girls" house-keepers,
nursing mothers, and feeble women gen.
orally, DIR. Pierce's Favorite Prescription
is the greatest earthly boon, being un-
equaled as an appetizing cordial and re-
stOrative tonic.
AS a soothing and strengthening nerv-
inc rFavorite Prescription is unequaled
and IS invaluable in allaying and sub
DUNG nervous excitability, irritability,
nervous exhaustion, nervous prostration,
neuralgia, hysteria, spasms, chorea, St.
Vitus's dance, and other distressing, nerv-
Gus symptoms commonly attendant upon
functional and organic disease of the
uterus. 1t induces refreshing sleep and
relieves mental anxiety and dependency.
