THE ORATOR|CAL CONTEST
Nine Contestants for State Hon.
ors-Robert Gordon of KaIa-
maZoO the Winner.
GEO. SUTTON TALKED FDRALMA
Sutton Awarded Fourth Place-His
Subject, "JohD Hay, the
Diplomat"

Amid the cheers and yells of his col
leagues, and din of uproar from the
audience, Robert Gordon of Kalamazoo
was proclaimed the winner in the state
oratorical contest, held in the opera
house last Friday night His grafton was
entitled "The College Mans Mission u
and was a mastery production. Mr..
Gordon revealed all the qualities of an
orator. His clear and resonout voice.
his pleasant personality, and his ease
and grace upon the platform, easily won
for him the winning place He was
given first place by all three judges on
delivery, which proves that the decision
was not mere accident.
The winning Grafton was a splendid
appeal to the college man to fulfil the
high mission to which he is called,
namely, to battle against the evils, sup
erstition, and moral degradation, that is
so widespread throughout the land. In
the opening part of his Grafton he showed
that college men are and have been the
leaders in all activities, in every age. He
cited many instances and in a very con-
vincing manner led up to the mission Of
the college man.
Second place was given to st. Glare
Parsons of Olivet, whose subject was,
1.-The Triumph of the Fraternal Spirit"
This grafton received first place on
thought and composition and was in
deed masterly production. Mr.. Par
sons traced the progress of this spirit
which is doing away with war and has
been the inspiration of great men and
has given birth to great institutions.
Emerson o. Gildart of Albion. whose
Grafton was on 1.-THE Ingenuity of the
American People," was awarded the
third decision, Mr.. Gildart is natural
orator and is an experienced public
speaker, receiving second place in the
state contest last year. He pointed out
the great ingenuity of the people of the
United States, and that only German
could compets with our nation.
Fourth place was given to George ID.
Sutton, who represented Alma with the
grafton on John Hay" This decision
speaks highly for Mr.. Sutton's work. |
which is the highest place Alma has ever
received in the. state contest. Besides
this was Mr.. Sutton's first appearance in |
a contest, while nearly every contestant
was an experienced speaker. His grafton
was an excellent account of the life and |

Miss Gertrude Peters, of NJ. A. c..
whose Grafton was entitled 1.-The De.
velopment of National Conscience, -
received fifth place. Her Grafton traced

splendid Grafton on 1.-The Great Peace

Seventh place was given to Clark Rob-
inson of Adrian, whose grafton was on
John Ruskin-"The Apostle of Beauty. :,
He showed the influenc of Ruskin upon
art and how the truths he taught will
never be lost sight of.
"The Hero Of the Dark Continent"
was the subject of the grafton of r. S.
Coldren, Hillsdales contestant, and re-
ceived eighth place. 1t was a splendid

only two weeks to prepare for the con-
test. alfred the Great was the sub
jeet of the Grafton given by julius Noel
Ter. He showed what this king did for
his people in war, in education, and in
religion. He said Never was there
greater man, more divine king"
The oratlons were all worthy pro-
ductions and reflected credit upon the
contestants. They were all of such a
high standard and the speakers SO near
alike in ability, that in many instances
the decisions do not seem TO place the
proper value upon the orations, but in |
general the decisions were satisfactory.
The delegates discussed and voted
in favor OF an ammend-
ment providing that delivery shall count
for two-thirds of the points in a contest
and composition for one-third. 1t is
claimed that personality of the speaker
counts for so much that the decision ON
delivery and composition cannot be
equal.
The question will be submitted to the
association of each of the colleges in the
state association.

contest, will go to Topeka, Kans., May

Some of the people think that tn,
sugar beet crop is very exhaustive to th,
soil. Such is not the case from tn,
theory or actual practice. The theoreti
cal part of the raising of beets on the soil
which we have no reason to doubt as
several experiment stations of our county
have figured out by careful experiments,
and they all reach the same results. that
the actual soil fertility that it takes from
the soil to grow a good crop of sugar
beets is little greater than the actual
fertility that it takes to grow good crop
OF wheat, oats or hay, but nothing is re-
moved from the soil only the bulbs of the
beets, the fertility they contain, is only
one-third of what it took to grow the
crop. From these facts we must be very
careful i'll feeding the leaves to save the
manure and return it to the soil. Here
are some results of the actual plant food
taken from the soil to grow some crops
To grow o2H bushels of oats per
acre, takes from the soil 4I.2 lbs.
of nitrogen, 1914 lbs. phosphoric acid, "a.
lbs. of potash. To grow 80 bushels of
wheati per acre removes from the soil
42.4S lbs. nitrogen, 4.22 lbs, pbosphoric
acid, 9 lbs, potash. To grow 100 bushels
of ear corn per acre takes out of the soil
49.35 lbs. nitrogen, 1895 lbs. phosphoric
acid, I6.45 lbs. potash. To grow IL tons
OF sugar beets per acre, 1t requires 52.S
lbs. nitrogen, "a lbs. phosphoric acid,
$40 lbs. potash; but in a crop of sugar
beets 3 of the fertility it took from the
soil to grow the crop is contained in the
tops. Therefore, in removing the bulbs,
you would only remove, actually, u of
the amount of fertility it took to grow
the crop, or in I2-ton crop, the amount
of actual fertility sold off with the bulbs
would be I7.6 lbs. nitrogen, s lbs.
phosphoric acid, 1872 lbs. potash. Now
study this last amonnt over carefully and
compare it with wheat, oats and corn.
Prof. Clinton ID. Smith, director and
the late r. c. Kedzie, deceased, chemist
of the Michigan Agricultural College, in
bulletin No, $50, page IS5, has the fol-
lowing to say:
when the entire sugar beet crop is re-
moved from the field, it is unquestion-
ably exhausting, carrying off large
amount of fertllizing material, especially
potash and phosphate. The leaves and
crown contain relatively larger amount
OF fertlizing material than does the same
weight of roots. To prevent unnecessary
depletion, it is said that in certain dis
tricts, the manufacturers require the
farmers not to remove the leaves from the
field, unless they are used for fodder and
their fertilizer ingredients thus returned
to the soil as manure. If this is done
and the beet pnlp or residue after ex-
u acting the sugar, is used as food for the
cattle and in this way returned to the
soil, there Is absolutely no loss of ferti-
lizing material and no farm crop so little
exhaust the soil as sugar beets. Where
there is nothing sold off the farm but the
sugar, the crop removes no fertilizingi
whatever. While sugar is valuable as
a food, 1t contains no eliment of fertility.
no potash, lime, phosphate, nitrogen or
other manurial material. 1t consists of

A great many Americans, both men
and women, are thin, pale and puny, with

(Pocahontas Head Light,

Some Of our people, and people who
ought to know better, have haZarded
the remark that Col. Slemp has done
more for this district than any other
man who has represented it. General
Walker did more than he, and Slemp
was SO ungrateful that he fought him
to a finish, in his last race. 1t is even
limited that a horse was ridden to
death, to get In "A vote against gallant

all these classes, having been raised on

miner of coal. Thus. he is identified
with all interests, in sympathy with
all classes and is an all round man,

The Anti-SaIOOn
League and
Col. Slemp

What will the Anti-Saloon League
people do with Col. Slemp? That is a
question being freely asked. We are
not prepared TO say what they will do,
but we are prepared 20 say one thing
and to prove il. To wit: III they be
heve in adding works TO faith; if they
believe that they can help to answer
their own prayers; if they believe that
God helps those who help themselves;
if they hold religion above politics,
they will throw Col. Slemp overheard.
What other consistent and straightfor-
ward course is there lett open TO them?
Surely the Church OF Christ should
show as much loyalty to n great cause
as the Liquor Dealers Association show
TO theirs. What does the Liquor
Dealers Association do when an cleo
ton comes up? They go to the candi-
dates, find out how they stand in re-
gard To their damnable business and
then vote, regardless OF politics. Is the
church member and temperance advo-
cate going to be less Jealous in his
cause than u common, low-bred bar
tender?
The only reason that the Church has
! failed to put the saloon in chains is be-
cause II large per cent OF her members
do not vote rs they pray. To her
shame We say 1t.
1t is the policy OF the Anti-Saloon
League not TO mix in politics, and it is
also the policy of the League to i'm
press upon its members the paramount
importance OF voting for the candidate
who best embodies in his life and in
his beliefs temperance reform and
temperance measures. We are an
officer in the League and happen to
know, and If the above statement be
treason, let 1t go at that. We want to
see the time come when political
party will not dare put up man who
is not strictly sober and who does not
stand for temperance in every depart
ment Of life.
So far as we are personally concern
ed, we will mark our ticket as moral
conditions demand it. We have done
it in the past and will do it again. We
are not asking for any post office or
cOllectOrship. We can live and be in
dependent, and by the help of the gods
We'll do it.-Norton Free Press.

From The Norton
Free Press

We men folks, when it comes to n
pinch, can be represented by most any
kind of a fellow, but we owe it TO our
wives and children to have the re-
presentive man who is clean and
pure.
A few of the Republican speakers
seem to think lhat it is personal call
from Roosevelt TO send Col. Slemp
back to Congress. II it is not out of
order we would like to see some evil
dence on that point.
The Tazewell Republican is printing
some very villainOus reading matter
about Bob Bruce these days. 1t doesn't
look fair that a person should be re-
quired to say such things about a clean,
pure man just in order to hold down a
little post office job.
