ANOTHER SCALE FORMULA.

L. H. Girton. Bristol, Ind, writes
in the The Fruit Grower" that after
five years OF experimenting, result.
ing in the loss of trees, he has found
practicable remedy for San jose
scale, one formula being used while
trees are dormant and another when
out in full leaf, but the latter is not
50 effective. Here are the formulas
Mr.. Girton uses:
For dormant trees Eight pounds
caustic soda, one quart crude carbolic
acid, fifty gallons Of water.
For apple trees In full leaf Six
pounds caustic soda, one pint crude
carbolic acid, sixty gallons Of water.
Directions for mixing: Dissolve the
soda in boiling water; mi barrel or
tank half full of water, then pour
in the soda; pour acid in, vessel with
one or two gallons of water, stir
well, and empty into tank or barrel,
and finished filing, and air is ready
to spray. In applying to trees use a
force pump with good agitator, to
throw a fine mist.
Mr.. Girtun says that il formula No.
is used thoroughly the scale will
rub off as soon as trees are dry This
preparation is not hard to make, and
those who 6aTs scale to fight might
experiment with it carefully.

When COW is suffering from q
congested udder, it is a good plan
to dry her off at once and feed one.
half ounce of nitrate of potash night
and morning in soft feed. Give
plenty of clean water, feed pure and
wholesome food and massage the I'D
der once a day with a little iodine
ointment.
If a cow gives bloody milk, as a
result CT injury to the udder, the best
treatment is to let nature effect a
cure. Dry the COW of, and let the
udder rest until the COW is fresh
again. 1t is useless to try to treat
serious injury Of the interior of the
udder when this organ has to be mani:
pulated twice day in milking.
When calf does not seem to
I thrive give it a half pint Of wheat
bran. with a pinch OF salt, scalded
with teacupful OF hot water Give
this with the usual amount of milk
and always keep some corn, oats and
hay with pure water handy.
To get. the best flow of milk lur.
ing the winter, cows should sbe bred
so as to come in during the fall
months. They begin to fall on in
milk In spring. but the grass will
stimulate larger flow, and they will
keep it UP until dried off for the
next calf. In this way the non-inilk-
ing period will be at time OF the
year when butter and milk are at
their lowest prices. From "Dsiry

SMALL FORTUNE DUE
GRANDPARENTS HEIRS

To investigate $1,000 worth OF
property. that has never been dis
tributed among the heirs. Caleb Har-
rison. of Grahamvlle, left this morn
ing for Hopkinsville. Mr.. Harrison's
grandfather owned considerable prop
|erty near Hopklnsville. When Har-
rison was quite young his father
moved from Hopkinsville, and at the
death of his grandfather the prop
|erty was not all divided. Just re-
|cently Mr.. Harrison learned that
there was $1,000 worth of property
with interest on it for 20 years, that
should come to his sister, Mrs. John
Simmons, and his brother, Joseph
Harrison, of Missouri. Mr.. Harrison
was in Paducah today, but left for
FIopkinsville in the hope of learning
something of the legacy.

Call for Troops Justified by

Official, Who Stands Alone.

Dangers are thickening around
County Attorney W. L. Krone. OF
Lyon county, as shown by an anony'
nous letter he received this week
which warned him to resign from his
office. The letter was dated at Kut'
tawa and mailed to Attorney Krone
II Is as follows:
"W. l.. Krone, Eddyville, Ky.
81 would advise you to throw NJ
your Office and step down and out
You had better heed"
Feeling in Lyon county against
Attorney Krone by persons who have
good reason to fear faithful Official
Is strong, as shown in the unwarrant-
ed attack on the attorney Monday
and this feeling seems to be growing
more bitter every day. Those citi'
zens who desire the enforcement OF
the laws, are giving Indifferent sup
port to the county attorney and Judge
Crumbaugh, while their enemies are
losing no opportunity to intmidatc
them. 1t has gotten to the point
where these two men stand practical
ly alone in their position against law
lessness, and the call for more troops
was made only in dire necessity.
No raids by large bodies of men
are looked for in Lyon county, but
the situation has settled down into
personal and individual feuds and an
imosities.

OLLIE JAMES In
PADUCAH TODAY
FIXING FENCES
Big First District Congress-
man Has No Information TO
Divulge.
Interest in County Convention
Here Saturday.
SEEKING FOR HONORS

Congressman Ollie NJ. James ar
rived in the city this morning from
Marion, presumably to feel the loca
Democratic pulse. Mr.. James said
Iall elements are agreed on the plan
of sending a solid instructed delega-
ton from Kentucky to Denver, for
William ]. Bryan, and both seem
confident that the convention in Lex
Iington will follow their wishes.
Mr.. James professed not to know
who will be chairman of the state
convention, and could not verify the
report that Judge Robbins, OF May
field. would preside. He said the
next president would be a Democrat
and that Democrat will be w. ]
Bryan. Mr.. James will leave this
afternoon.
McCracken county will hold a con-
vention Saturday to elect delegates
to the Lexington convention. This
county is entitled to ii delegates.
The Convention.
Interest in the Democratic con-
vention and committee meetings Sat
Iurday is increasing among members
of the party and the indications are
that there will be good crowd at
the court house when the chairman
calls the convention to order.
There will be no contest for in
structions TO the state convention, as
a great majority of Democrats are
for Bryan. and all the interest in the
First district centers around the
party organization and the selection
OF delegates to the national conven.
ton at Denver.
Ollie James will be backed for one
OF the delegates from the state al
large, while Senator Conn Linn and
Gus Thomas, of Mayfeld, are tipped
as delegates from the district.
Three candidates are out fol
|elector: J. S. Ross, of McCracken
John NJ. Moore. of Ballard, and Ware
Headley, of Caldwell.
For state central committeeman
c. w. Emery, of Paducah. and Et
Grassland. of Mayfeld. are contest
ants. and Senator n. w. Utley, o
Lyon. and Henry Lawrence. of Trigg
each want to be the member of the
executive committee from the FRS
district.
Although there is violent opposi
ton among many of the candidates
for county office to the primary being
called for this fall. 1t is practically
conceded that the primary will b'
held on the regular election day, o.
one year, in advance of the election
when the offices will be filled. 1t Il
believed there is a scheme in this t.
take snap judgment on aspirants
who have not been laying their plan
ito capture the nominations long II
ladvance, and it is feared that candi
dates exposed to public scrutin!
many months in advance of the cam
lpaign will be made to suffer politi
Ically.

There is one important difference
between the table compiled by the

consideration altogether the 229 votes
for which there are contests, while
Mr.. Hitchcock put all those in where
one set of contestants was instructed
for Taft.
The allies gave plentiful evidence
that they are allies. In Pittsburg
