There have been some warm times
in politics in and around Davidson
county during the past week. The
meeting of the State Executive Com

prior to the opening of the State
Convention and which had for Its
consideration several contests from
various counties, will be remembered
for years to come, and the mastery
speech and the eloquent appeal made
before it by Mr. Nance Dixon, OF
Clarksville, Tenn, who is the only
member of the State Executive Com
mittee-in fact, he is all there Is that

made a slight remark-as is custom

Mr.. Adams first perfect head of

If some one were to tell the aver
age wheat farmer, that it was poss-
ible to raise wheat crop on United
States farms in one year, of hve
billions of bushels, he would brand
his informant as dreamer, and yet
had the farmers in America planted
q wonderful new wheat seed that
has been perfected by Abraham
Adams of Juliaetta, Idaho, that is
JUST the yield would have been
this season, based upon the probable
crop of the year.
Connected with this assertion Is
the greatest wheat sto-y that has
ever been told, far greater than the
widest dreams Of the wheat king,
in the security of his vast domain
and the demand for his golden har-
vest. The United Stales paid eighty
millions of money for Alaska, and
yet the great gold payment sinks
into insignl6cance when compared
with Farmer Adams Alaska wheat
which he has gradually brought to
perfection until he has given to the
world wheat that will grow under
average conditions 200 bushels to
the acre..
This is a large assertion, and
hardly believable were it not fol
the fact that it is backed up by sur
veys of land and output of thresherl
and the yield and quality backed
up by the Idaho experimental station
at Moscow, Idaho, and being follow
ed up by other stations, all eager t
make test TO see if they can bea
the yield of the originator. Tn
yield is only part of the grea
discovery, for this Alaska wheat /
both a winter and spring wheat
and when planted as either is
hard wheat that will grade as No. !
Imagine a hard winter wheat TO
the great soft wheat belts of tn
country, which with this new whea
can compete with the hard whea
lands Of the great northwest.
