PROGRESSIVE FARMERS.

The average American farmer
is a progressive mortal. He is
always ready to learn new things.
He lately realizes more than ever
the necessity of education in his
business. He no longer ignores
the fact that science is a wonder
full factor in his work, a money
saver that must be considered if
he succeed. The more intelligent
is the farmer, more interest will
he take in the furthering the in
terests Of his home town, and
building up and improving the
community in general.-E

Give variety to the diet of poul-
try. Millet and kafir corn, as
we'll as sunfower seeds, should be
given as change in the ration.
1t is now possible to buy a long
list of poultry feeds, such as those
mentioned. The more the feed
is changed the more do the fowls
enjoy their food, and this leads
to the increased secretion of the
digestive juices and and the
greater utility Of the foods. That
enjoyment of food increases the
digestive powers has been album
dainty proved by the scientist
that have been studying such
matters.

A press dispatch from Lexing-
ton, KY, reports that officers and
members of the Fayette County
Branch of the Society of Equity
have arranged for financing the
1907 crop in that county. Ware
houses will be leased and the pri-
vate fortunes of the members will
be used to advance if desired.
Many land owners have agreed
to furnish their tenants money to
enable them to hold their 1907
crop, and alsu to enable them to
cut out any crop for 1908. This
is the correct policy. Let all
hands and the cook" stand to-
gether in this policy and the trust
will buy our tobacco at a living
price.

will rush from it in terror. To
others it seems to have a revers-
ed effect; they actually wa k
right into afame, regardless of
the torture of the heat. A horse
in a burning building goes mad
with fear, but a dog seems the
least excited. He will keep his
nose down to the floor where the
air is purest, and calmly tries to
find a way out. A cat in a fire
gives a piteous howl, will crouch
in a corner and hide it's face from
the light, and when rescued is
quiet and subdued, seldom at
tempting to bite or scratch.
Cows show no alarm and are east
ly led out of the building, and in
many cases find the way out
themselves. Chickens, and all
kinds of birds, seem to de rivited
TIC the spot and keep perfectly
still.

CARDINAL RULES OF TAXATION.

The remedy proposed by E. M.
Thresher of the Dayton Chamber
of Commerce for the difficulties
in the tax system of Ohio is
similar to the remedy now being
urged in many states He says:
''The essence of the difficulty
seems to lie in the attempt to
make the constitution deal with
details rather than with princi-
pies;
"The power remedy, in my
judgment, is only to be found
in an amendment of the consti-
tuition which shall give to the
general assembly power to class
ify all proper Subjects for tax
alton in such a manner that
mo subject shall escape its
proper share Of the burden.
mo subject Of the same class
shall be taxed more than once.
''The tax shall in all cases be
uniform to subjects Of the same
class and just to the subject
taxed"

EVEN KENTUCKY JOINS "DRY."

AS the result of the temper
ance crusade in Kentucky, the
home of the old-fashioned toddy
and seductive mint julip, ninety
two out of the 119 counties have
put the ban on whisky selling.
But four counties in the entire
State wholly wet" and about L.
$50, 900 of the States population,
out of a total of 2,230,OOO are liv-
ing in arid territory.
Within the last year the lid"
is put on in Louisville for the
first time in a half century, and
nearly 100 saloo ms, which had
no doors, are now closed on the
Sabbath, and if the new city ad-
ministration is successful in it's
efforts, over 900 saloons will be
closed every night when the city
hall clock strikes midnight.
This condition is rather sur
prising when it is remembered
that 100000 is invested in the
wine, spirit and beer Industry in
tn e State Of Kentucky. AL
though 80, OOO,OO gallons of whis-
key were made IN Kentucky last
year, word has been received in
Washington that but 10000, 900
gallons will be made during 1908.
The report of the Commissioner
Of Internal Revenue for tn e
month of November shows a de-
crease of 81, 729, 965. IS in tax re-
ceipts on distilled spirits over the
corresponding month of the pre-
ceding year.

Pensacola, May 12.-(Special)--No arrests have been made for the dyn- amlting on East Hill car number ten last night, although officers, includ- inR Pinkerton men have been at work since the attempt. Some of the ofa- cers spent all of last night and a portion of today running down rum ors and endeavoring to get clues. but tonight 1t was stated that only cir cumstanfial evidence has been secur- ed against men suspected. and this Is not of sufficient importance to cause any arrests. f.,s s.
 The ofFicers have not given up hope of finally arresting the right parties. and believe that something will yet oc- cur whereby they can procure sufficient evidence to halse' arrests.
 It Is the belief of those interested in pre- diction of the parties that the dyn- auiSte was intended for northbound car. and that the car passed without exploding tflA dynamite. The stick was Apiaced in the front of the switch and could be fired by either a north bound or soutllbound car. It was at q point where two lines branch off. Had the north bound car exploded the dynamite many people would have been injured and possibly killed. as the car was cEpwded with women and children returning home from the city.
 The explosion had no eifect today upon the twenty conductors and mo- tormen who returped to work Mon day. It was thought that possibly they might become frightened and refuse to operate the cars. but such was not -~ Continuanee Granted.
