"Mr. Chairman and Ladies and

to you the feeling of deep gratitude
that has come to me at this express
sion of your confidence and kindness.
IT Is to me, the voice of the people
calling to a sacred duty. It is receiv-
ed by. me as a sacred duty to my
country, to Kentucky and to all the
people. | shall do what can to re-
pay the trust that you have reposed
in me. My heart is SO full that my

Every one would have the same trou-
Bile. But while it has swelled my
heart, | say reverently it has not
swelled by head.

Mkt this with any feeling but that
of serious responsibility. Here is a
great people as warm hearted, as in
dependent, as courageous, as splen-
did people as there is on the face
of the earth, and this people has had
its public affairs come into a condi-
tion that discourages the people and
hurts the glorious name of our great

shall make a change in Kentucky and
shall once more put Kentucky at the

against that train. That train Is only
one of the myriads of trains that are
going like shuttles to and fro through

of these trains. and you can't talk
against them. The Republican ticket
is for those trains and more OF
them.

A Vow Anecuote OF Lincoln.

The day after the great fire follow

with a small body-guard, walked

he directed the guard to wait, and to
their establishment ran two steps at
a time up to the door and raped.

SOW TREATED SEED.
Or. Alexander Says That Better Re
suits viii &c Obtained.


Despite the fact that investigators
have definitely decided upon treatment
which proves effective for the proven
ton of smut in grain. such as oats,
barley and other cereals, many farm
ers do not seem disposed TO go TO the
trouble of thus improving their seed.
1t is stated by Prof Moore of the Wis
consin Experiment Station that last
year but one-third of the farmers OF
the state treated their seed. although
in one year G9OD one-fourth OF the
entire oat crop of Wisconsin was de-
stroyed by smut. causing money loss
of over S5.000,0O0. There is no need
of having any loss. Treating the seed
one season protects the crops for sew
eral seasons, as once the spores of
smut are eradicated il takes several
seasons for the smut to again affect
the grain.
This being the case. farmers are
apt TO become careless, and it is our
opinion that. as the treatment is sim
pie, inexpensive and easy TO give. ii
would be wise policy TO use it every
season ito make assurance doubly

soaking seed oats in a solution of one
pint of 40 per cent. formaldehyde TO
So gallons of water. The grain is
placed in small gunny sacks. holding.
say. one bushel each, and each sack OF
grain in turn is soaked in the solution
for ten minutes. and then allowed 10
drain for a time so that the surplus
fluid returns 90 the solution tank or
barrel. Afterward the soaked grain
is spread out on the granary floor to
dry. but when ready for use is some
what swollen and damp. so that the
seeder has TO be set TO SOW a bushel

erly.
Another plan is TO soak seed oats

Look over the garden tools and get
them in condition for the spring work
Guinea hens are notorious bug
catchers. and the orchards is q good
place for them to roam.
Examine the cherry and plum trees
now, and If you find that you over
looked any OF those black knots re
move them.
A great deal OF crowdlng and waste
OF growth can be prevented by rubbins
on all imperfect shoots while they are
yet In the bud.
II you haven't a shed In which n
store manure. the best way to dispose
OF 1t Is to haul II out To the garden and
scatter 1t whore most needed.
Many farmers make lot OF plans
In the winter time, but when spring
comes they forget all about them
Plans are no good unless they are
