The Primary in Kansas.

The first primary election under
the new primary law was held in
Kansas on August 4th. The re-
suits, were complete justification
of the claims of its advocates.
Under the law all parties nominal.
ed their candidates by primary
vote from constable to United
States senator.
The main interest centered III the
Republican party. On one hand
the machine crowd of the Republi-
can party had up candidates headed
by Cyrus Leland for governor the
best machine man III Kansas. For
United States senator they had re-
nominated Senator Long, who has
served two terms and who had the
support Of all the railroads and cor
poration influences in the state and
nation. Against Leland for govern
or was arrayed w. R. Stubbs, the
organizer OF the anti Boss move
ment and the author Of the primary
law. Stubs is to Kansas what La
Toilette has been for Wisconsin.
Against Long was pitted j. L..
Bristow who gained fame by ex-
posing the postoffice corruption
while Fourth Assistant Postmaster
general under the Mckinley admin
'istration.
The victory over the machine
crowd was full and complete
Stubbs defeated Leland by some
1000 votes, and Bristow beat Long
in an overwhelming manner.
Stubs and Bristow made theft
appeal direct to the people and the
people responded with their votes
despite the efforts of the railroads
and every machine paper and poll
ticfan in the state. 1t proves that
the people CAN be trusted to care
for. their own interests. Farming

Cabbage Worms.

Paris green, one rounding teaspoon
full. Common flour, one quart. Mix
the two thoroughly together and put
In small cheesecloth sack which any
one can make In q very few minutes.
Shake this sack over the cabbage plants
causing tile Paris green and -four to
sift through and fall upon the cabbage
leaves. This Is best done early in the
morning or in the evening when there
Is little moisture upon the leaves to
cause the powder to stick where it falls.
A very light busting is all that is
necessary to distribute enough of the
poison to kill the worms that feed upon
the leaves. This poison should not be
used later than ten days to two weeks
before the time that the cabbage are tc
be gathered.
Unless used in unreasonable excess,
there will not be poison enough de
posted upon the edible part of the cab
bage head to do any harm. In fact, al
these outer leaves are removed befori
the cabbages are cooked for food, Il
is also trie that the leaves that form
the outer part of the cabbage head ont
day will spread and become loose outeI
leaves few days later. So, if the poi
son is not applied very near to the tim,
that the cabbages are to be gathered
1 there will be no poison whatever upol
the edible parts. For best results th
first application should lie made a
soon as the heads begin to form. Thel
one or two applications later would b
all that is necessary. P. GiLLE1TE

During the past twenty-five days
Mr.. Cooper has been in Minneapolis,
the sale of his preparation has aver
aged about two thousand bottles day.
When the amount of medicine disposed

this, the amount will be doubled.
Therefore, the young man has sold in

bottles of his medicine in the state OF
