Second prize ................ 60 90

All entries must be made and
exhibit received on or before Au-
gust Is, 1907.
The quantity OF each sample
of grain sent should not be less
than ore-half the size of the or
binary bundle of grain and
should be carefully tied so as to
prevent it from getting damag-
ed. y There should be a full bun
die + flax. alfalfa and clover.
These grains and grasses
should be carefully packed in
large boxes with sufficient open
ings to permit plenty Of air to
circulate thru so as to prevent
the grain from becoming heated
or mold while in transit.
The larger the variety the
more value is attached to it.
Extreme care should be used
in selecting, arranging and pack
ing each exhibit.
The department will simply
take the exhibit from the boxes
and display it, concealing from
the Judges the name OF the con-
tents and the counties in which
the exhibit was gathered.
While it is not absolutely nee.
essary, it may prove advantag-
eous to the exhibitor to have
the wheat, oats, barley, rye,
speltz and other grains stripped.
This will make the straw bright
er and more attractive.
All grains and grasses should
be shipped by express SO as to
prevent the exhibit from being
kept in the boxes too long and
thus avoid having a moldy ap.
pearance. The department will
pay express charges. Consign
all shipments to VIC. Gilbreath

 At the first word Of this second lec- .ure. MT. Jack smartiy brought his heels togetber; and. erect, silent grave. ne stood before his superior officer It was the old orderly room manner. as- sumed instinctivkly as most suitable Tor the occasion he was again sub altern taking a wigging from the col onel in the approved military style No defense: no explanation; brief state- ment of regret, when your colonel gets tired of it or loses his breath.

 But when all was ovel.--wjrh formal manners laid by, and they were stroll ing through the arch way side by side. MT. Crunden began again.
 You know, sir--any remarks I let fall were simply for your own good. II feel sure your own father--Sir John would endorse"
 "Oh, hang 1t all,'' said Jack rather warmly, don't rub it in. Don't go on rubbing it in. It was after business hours--"
 ''Yes. yes, we'll say no more.r
 Don't" said Jack: and then, after a. gulp. as though swallowing the ten dency to slight warmth. he laughed aud gave Mfr. Crunden slap on the shoulder. You can see I was ashamed of myself. Well. then. as between men and brothers-as between good pals you needn't try to rub 1t in:'' and he hurried away towards the estate.

 The crowds which throng the gall leries are more impressed with the per sonal appearance of Senator Davis than they thought they would be. An idea was prevalent on account of the many radical utterances attributed to him in the papers hostile to him that he is slouchy in dress and could not pass muster among the good looking men of the Senate The average comment heard since his arrival here is that he ranks we'll up in looks, his clothes fit him well, and his face is cleanly shaven every day. He is in the prime of life and the perfect picture of robust health. :. His large size puts him up with the heavy weights of the Senate. He weighs considerably over 200 pounds.
 Mir. Kittredge of South Dakota weighs more than any other Senator. as he tips the scales up to the 300 pound notch. Next to him is MT. Hepburn of Idaho. He's looked upon as whop- per- MT. Deliver of Iowa weighs up- wards of 200 pounds and Mir. Clapp of Minnesota is in the same class.

Formal Application fin Famous Rail-
 way IItfHafiOn,

Attorneys for Henry B. Gray of Birmingham, in his fight against the Louisville and Nashville Railroad. have asked that the Supreme Court grant d new hearing in the custer case recently decided in favor of the road.
 While the matter is being discussed the certificate from the lower court has been recalled. In this case the lower court, on application of MT. Gray, a minority stockholder of the South and North. held that the Louis- vile and Nashville had not properly acquired control of the other line hence a judgment of custer was is- sued the effect of which would have been to deprive the major corporation of the control of the minor.

"Mr. Jack" said Mrs. Price. concIud- ing her severe lecture on Monday morning. will you take the pledge along with me? I like my glass of ale at meals-as much as any one. But I'll give it up. if you'll do the like. In this house we've seen too much of the sorrow it brings"
 "Yes. you've said that before. Don't rub it in. PrIcey."
 Then will you do what I ask?"
 No won't. I'll take the pledge against Rosencrantz champagne In fact. I have taken if. Now run away, please. Can't you see I'm busy?" The clerk might be busy, but also he was in disgrace. Mrs. Price had lectured him with the utmost severity, although, so far as Pricey was con- cerned he strove to carry things with high hand.
 He was desperately busy when, later in the morning. his fellow-worker, Lizzie, silently took her scat, and be- gan work with the typewriter But. after little while. when the clack- clack and clong -clong of rhe machine ceased and Lizzie sat writing, the s lence became so progressively irksome that he attempted conversation. He found, however, that Lizzie seemed all together too busy to indulge in idle chat.

 Lizzie pointed with her pen to the tray that held the sticks of wax.
 "You don't wear those pretty blue dresses now, Miss Lizzie. I suppose they are really summer frocks. .a. Wouldn't be Rpitable for this cold weather! But you'll wear them again in the warm weatheH l hope. They are so awfully pretty. Rut I mustn't interrupt you. I can see you are busy. Mrs. Price interrupted mo just now, and I reproached her for doing it---and mustn't do the same to you. Interrupt you-I mean"
 Lizzie went on writing diligently; and Jack, returning to his desk, has, tened to complete his clerical task.
 Miss Lizzie, forgive my inturrupt- ing vou." This was when he had ta- ken his hat from the peg and was about to go out. Miss Lizzie"
 "Yes. what is it?"
 "Do you remember how I begged you not to send me to the Redmarsh Road? Well. I don't like this other place ynu've sent me to. I don't like the place at all"
 What place are you talking ot:"
 Coventry. I hate 1t. You'll let me come back soon, won't you?
