A POET.

Golfers Weekly,
When Cyrano and his Gascon ca.
diets were hungry, he tossed them a
copy Of his "Iliad." For meat, he
gave the strong men charm and pa.
thos and the heroic mood. And so
in this year, which is not proving
easy for many, it will bring one sort
of relief If readers will betake them
selves to the poetry OF Francis
Thompson. Year by year it is max
ing its way with the bookmen Of the
world, and, more gradually still,
with laymen too. A mystic after
the ancient order of Crashaw,
Thompson starved and fell i'll in the
approved manner of all heavenly
singers. There is no champagne
and-automobile route running from
Charing Cross to Parnassus. Life
was poignant to Thompson, but 1t
was interpenetrated with the sense
of wonder, so that all created things
were changed with a subdued glow,
and he went along his journey al
ways ready for the person who, soon
or late, might give him the reyela-
ton. His posthumous poems, such
as "In No Strange Land" are bright
with a sure light that only family
flickers in the modern minor poets
whose inspiration is derived from
reading and an overcultivated mel
ancholy Representative of Thomp-
sons mood and close-packed style are
the lines.
But (when so sad thou canst not
sadder)
Cry; and upon thy so sore loss
Shall shine the traffic of Jacobs
ladder
Pitched betwixt heaven and
Charing Cross"

4 RESULTS FROM NORTH \
n ERN SEED CORN. \
X tk&k
X ttt&


Farm and Ranch | notice very
interesting discussion as to whether
northern grown seed corn planted in
Texas would do as we'll as the native
seeds. As / have had some expert
ence in this line, thought perhaps
1t might be of interest to your read
ers to give my experience wild the
northern seed corn.
In March, 1907, bought one bush
ell of selected seed of the Yellow Dent
variety of corn, grown at Blooming
ton, Illinois. surveyed off one acre
flat, broke the same with Kelly
pillow about eight inches deep, har-
rowed the land and laid off the rows
three and one-half feet, checked each
way, and planted the corn so that 1t
was about five inches below the wa
ter-furrow, and when laid by about
five inches above the water-furrow,
Before breaking the land | broad
casted six light loads Of barnyard
manure over the land, and plowed
II in, the corn was chopped to three
stalks in the drill, was hoed twice
and was plowed about six times, the
last four plowings were very light
with spring-tooth harrow, just en-
ough to move the soil and kill the
crab grass.
Notwithstanding a very disastrous
rain and wind which blew the corn
down when it was in the heavy roast
ing ear stage, harvested 60 bushels,
measured by weight, of flrst-class
corn. The ears of corn, | believe,
would average about IL ounces over
the whole acre, per each stalk. This
corn was exhibited at the Farmers
congress in this locality and took
the blue ribbon for excellence on all
points.
This year | planted the same acre,
with seed from the corn raised last
year, and made rs bushels on the
same acre. The corn was planted
March 10, and was harvested about
August 49, Our corn that Is gem
orally planted here is not harvested

VIGOROUS PROTEST BY
UNION LABOR Is ISSUED
Central Body at st. Louis Takes
Stand Against GomperS Decision.

st. Louis, Dec. ga declaration
that union labor stood ready to shed
its own blood to retain the sacred
heritage of free speech and press, an
attack on the federal juuiclary OF
the United States, its personnel and
methods, was contained in a resolu-
ton passed by vote of 1873 TO 8 in
rthe Central Trades and Labor union
meeting this afternoon protesting
against the decision OF last week SEN
fencing Samuel Gompers, president;
John Mitchell, vice president, and
Frank Morrison, SECRETARY, of the
American Federation of Labor to jail
for contempt
President Roosevelt, who two days
after the Wright decision announced
his inability to interfere in the mat
ter, will get a copy of the resolution.
The resolution declares:
Judge Wright, in rendering the
decision OF the court, did SO in lam
guage that plainly indicated strong
prejudice against the defendants in
particular and organized labor in
general, and in our estimation en-
tirely unworthy Of a judicial tribu-
nal.
1--WE claim the right to protest
against what We consider an unjust
decision. the same as Abraham Lin
coin protested against a decision OF
the highest tribunal of the land in
the bred Scott case, and more re-
Gently the example Of Theodore
Roosevelt in protesting the decision
of United States appellate court
in the Standard Oil case.
eve send words of good cheer to
our respected and beloved leaders
who have made brave fight for the
maintenance of the liberties of the
people, purchased at so great a cost,
and just as the men of 1875 an
nounced to the world, we stand ready
to pledge our lives and liberties to
retain the sacred heritage OF liberty
handed down by our e-fathers."
New York, Dec. 29.-Planning a
demonstration of 100000 laboring
men next Sunday in protest against
the Jail sentences imposed upon
Samuel Gompers, John Mitchell and
Frank Morrison, the Central Federal
ed union today appointed a commit
tee Of thirty to make arrangements
and adopted resolutions in this con-
nection, of which a copy was sent to
President Roosevelt.
The executive committee announ-
ced that it had sent telegram to
the defendants assuring them that
every legal means would be utilized
to prevent their imprisonment. Her.
man Robinson, general organizer Of
the Federated union offered resoiu-
tons, which were adopted, denounc-
ing the writ Of injunction as con-
trary to American constitutional
rights.
1t was also decided that action by
any labor union looking to pardon
for the men sentenced should be
discouraged, the Federated union
taking the position that no crime
had been committed and it would
not be proper to seek pardons.

WANTS WIDER LATITUDE ON
TEXAS SCHOOL TAXES

Austin, Texas.-Not now, but two
years hence, Prof. II. B. Cousins will
advocate the adoption of a constltu-
tional amendment providing that a
majority vote on the question OF levy
ing a school tax in the cities OF the
state shall be sufficient for such a
proposition to prevail.
Under the constitution as 1t is at
present it takes a two-thirds vote for
the proposition to carry to levy a
school tax in cities of tho state. In
other words, the proposed amend
ment will be the same as the one
recently adopted and for the adop-
ton of which the educational forces
of the state worked so valiantly, and
which, however, only applies to COM
mon school districts.
Now it is the aim OF the state SUI
perintendent, and he hopes to have
the cooperation of the educators
over the state, to have an amend
ment adopted applying to the cities,
that is, incorporated cities, in Texas
Prof. jenkins, general agent for the
conference for education, estimates
that there are 107 such incorporat-
ed cities in the state that have in
dependent school districts and in
which such an amendment would be
operative.

The farmers daughter of today is
reaching out in many directions anx-
ious to earn money TO spend as she
chooses and become Independent of
Ihe family purse.
To these girls We should like to
relate our own profitable experience
with turkeys. If they desire TO imi-
tate 1t there is a fair field and a
comfortable purse at the end of the
way.
We are extremely busy people All
through the summer season We have
been in the habit of going to the
village, two miles away, twice a day,
with garden produce and berries.
Therefore, as we are away from
home from to 6 p, m. usually, 1t
was necessary for US to choose a do
nestle breed Of turkeys that would
not wander off the farm and that
would come to the barn OF their own
accord at night.

Mr.. Rockefeller expresses the be.
lief that the general idea OF cooper

"a real step in advance" when Mr..

is unnecessary to dwell upon the CEN.
turtles OF experience which the
Church OF Rome has gone through
TO perfect a great power Of organ

tie to consideration than that the
writer would be gratifled to have

Mr.. Rockefeller pays a warm tri-
butte to the memory OF the late DR..

University OF Chicago and makes
without qualification the statement
which will be surprising to many
persons, that during the entire
period OF his presidency OF the uni
versity Of Chicago, he never once
either wrote me letter or asked
me personally for dollar OF money
for the university" He goes on
to explain that in this as in all other
cases the gifts to the university were
the result Of the presentation Of its
needs made in writing by the Off
GERS OF the university whose special
duty It is to prepare its budgets and
superlntend It's finances. 1t is not
personal interviews and imprisoned
appeals. but sound and justlfying
worth that should attract and secure
the funds of philanthropy.
The people in great numbers who
