1t is said that W. d. vsndiver Is
becoming somewhat reconciled by
the lemon that has been handed him
by his dear governor. At any rate
he Is reported as saying that he is
going to support Evans for governor
even though he is more or less Of a
dam phool, or words to that effect.
With all the derision that has been
heapsd upon Vandiver he was the
only one OF the kitchen cabinet that
accomplished much. Since they have
been trying TO get along without
him they have been hung on sand
bar half the time. We don't blame
Vandiver for being sore aiteriurnish'
Ing the brains for the campaign two
years ago and managing the office
to which lie was appointed with
more credit to the administration
than any other In the governors
gift. Vandiver ought TO do what he
would like to do, that is, come out
fat footed for VIII Cowherd whom
heknows by reason OF long acquaint
ance in congress, as honest, capable
and extremely able to fiji this office
with fairness to every member OF his
party and credit to the great state
OF Missouri. Why does he want to
tag on TO something he admits is
mighty small potatoes and few in a
hill? He can be certain OF one thing,
he will be fed on lemons as long as he
continues to do so.-Moberly Demo.

Pleading for the authority OF the

lucky Republican, Attorney General
James Breathitt. while defending Be
rea College, religious school that
seeks to educate both races In the
same classes, was that apostle OF
Democracy, former Secretary OF the
Treasury John g. Carlisle. Breathitt
argued that the State statute under
which the college was fined $1,000
was constitutional.
"The statute was intended to pre-
vent these two streams OF life from
flowing into common channel, to
preserve race identity and to main
tain the purity OF blood" said he.
Kentucky guarantees equal civil
rights, but maintains a separate So
cial status. The historian and ad

Hints on Tree Planting.

Ruralist.
Don't hesitate TO plant new trees.
Every farmer owes it to himself and
to his children TO set out at least one
orchard In his lifetime. How else is
the number Of apple trees on his
farm TO be kept good? Go to the
nursery, the owner Of which you
know to be a reliable man, make q
selection, during the winter ifground
Is bare, and have them carefully dug
In spring and set out in some lot
that had been under cultivation for
the past year or two.
Never plant deeper than the tree
stood in the nursery row. Never
omit applying a mulch so young
trees II there is the slightest danger
OF drouth. Never forget that low,
stout, mot stunted) trees are prefer.
able to tall, slender ones.
Never forget that a hardy, vigor.
Gus productive variety, Of medium
quality lie infinitely more desirable
than a feeble growing, shy.besring
variety OF much better quality.
Never fail to have a succession OF
apples for home use. For this pur.
pose a few trees each Of a somewhat
larger list Of varieties may be select.
