STALLINGS IN LEE
SPEAKS FOR JOHNSON AT oPELIkA
 AND AUBURN.
Mir. Stromme Makes Friends Before . TusealOcsa Audience-Rountree Too Busy Helping Mir. Tom
 linson to Speak.

Opelika. May 13.-(Special )--Hon Jesse F. Stallings of Birmingham came to opelika today at nuon, and a few minutes thereafter he, addressed the voters of Lee County upon the candi- dacy of Governor John A. Johnson of Minnesota, for the Democratic Presi- dential nomination.
 The Lee County Court of Law and Equity was in session. and men from different parts of the county were present. Judge Barnett adjourned court from l2:1o o'clock until 2:30 D. m. in order that Mir. Stalilngs might have ample time to address the citizens upon the issues of the campaign.
 Gen. George P. Harrison acted as chairman and introduced MT. Stallings to the audience.
 Mir. Stallings spoke for about ons hour and fifteen minutes, and during that time he made many telling points in behalf of Governor Johnson. He showed that the Governor of Minnesota could carry every State that Mir. Bryan could carry, and in addition he would have a good chance of carrying some of the Eastern States. He said that with Mir. Bryan as the Democratic nominee, the Republicans would fight ownership of railroads. and tn at with
  would not be an issue.
 He told of how Johnson had risen from the lap of poverty to be one of the greatest men of the Northwest. High tribute was paid to the charac- ter of Governor Johnson, and, accord ing to the opinion of the speaker, he was the one great leader. that was needed to place the Democratic ban ner upon the heights of victory.
 MT Stallings said that in 1900 Mir Bryan did not carry his ward, his town. his county. or his State. but that in 1906 Governor Johnson not only car ried hls own county, in a strong Re- publican State, but that he carried ev- cry county in Minnesota but two, and increased his majority of two years before by about e5.000 majority.
 About 200 people were present to hear the speech. and Mir. Stallings was heartily congratulated upon his effort.
 Mir StaIlings left Opelika this after noon for Auburn. where he spoke to- night.

A Farm Whose Crop is Timber

In every State Of the Union there
are many tracts Of So-callcd aericul-
tural land, which. owing to their hilly
character, poor soil, or numerous
houl1rrS. arc not suitable for farm
ing. The owners Of such tracts are
often at loss 10 know what to do
with them.
Without question, the best use to
which land Of this kind can be put
is to plant it with trees. One Of the
fundamental principles Of forest
economics is. that soil which is not
good enough to make the growing of
cereal crops profitable should be de-
voted to to the production of wood
crops. This does not mean that
trees grow better on poor soil than on
fertile soil They will. Of course,
GROW better on fertile soil. But, in
proportion to the money invested
better returns are secured from trees
planted on the less valuable land.

IMMIGRATION DE
PARTMENT

AT the meeting or the Farmers
Union in Columbia last week resolu-

migration department which has
been put upon the State through the

request has been made, and it is to
be hoped that the legislature will
have men in it ut its next session
who will see that ii Is done.
There was never any good reason

Returns thus far indicate the defeat OF

ARMY OF $4,000
PLANNED FOR THE
UNITED STATES
Eight Corps to Be Kept Ready
for Any Emergency, Says
General r. s.. Oliver.

Pine Camp. N. j., June G.-President
Roosevelt's plan TO create yirtuaIly a
standing army of &0.000 men, organized
into eight army corps and ready for in
lstant service, was outlined by General
Robert Shaw Oliver, assistant secretary Of
war. General Oliver had completed a crit
,ical inspection of Pine Camp and was rest
ing at headquarters on Hogs Back when
asked for q statement as to the real pur-
pose of his visit. With the utmost frank
ness he revealed the details of a definitely
adopted plan which will bring federal and
state troops together In one great mill
tary organization trained and equipped
for any emergency.
In Two Years.
Two years from now" said General
oliver. 1--WE expect TO have a force OF CO.,
i0D men, regulars and volunteers, mobi-
ilized at this camp IL the government de-
cides to purchase 1t.
lou plan is to establish eight great
maneuver camps at different points
throughout the country. At these camps
we will assemble all regulars not on for-
'eign service and every regiment or state
volunteers. Z,
There are no longer any militia
men" continued the general, with a smile's
They are all United States volunteers.
In the event OF war they are part of the
regular army under the new law. Up to
this time the president has been powerless
to direct the management OF state troops
1t is so no longer.
1.-THE plan is to organize this new army
in eight army corps" he continued. Pine
Camp, Or whatever camp we select for the
east, will be the annual maneuvering
ground for the first army corps. II Will
include every regiment In New York,
Pennsylvania and New England.
yearly these regiments will train in
maneuvers side by side with regulars.
The inevitable result will be a general
efficiency that will give us a standing
army of 10000 men available for any,
ergen OF this army a part will be:
thoroughly trained and the balance par
TALLY so. Every regiment will know It's
corps position and rapid mobilization can
be effected without any confusion
, The assistant secretary of war left no
doubt as to the defniteness OF this plan.
'I will myself put this organization into
effect" said he, within the next two
years, but IL i Mould be forced to drop
out for any reason the plan Will surely be
carried through. That has been decided.

WARNING FOR FOURTH.

Washington, June 27.-Bel!eving
, that neglect of proper precautions
) against tetanUs in dressing wounds
) resulting from the celebration of
July 4 is responsible for many OF
) the deaths which follow the holt
) day, Surgeon General Wy1man Of
) the marine hospital service is send
; ing out a general warning in the
public health report.
In the last five years there have
been 1S6 cases of tetanus as the
!. result OF the annual Fourth OF july
) celebration, Of which 721 have died,
a mortality of SO per cent. Six hun
dred and eight or so per cent Of the
; cases resulted from blank cartridge
wounds.
The warning which was prepared
) by Passed Assistant Surgeon John
) r. Anderson says:
TT should be an invariable pro-
) cedure that all Fourth OF July
wounds be laid fully open under To-
) cal or, preferably. general anaes-
; thesis, and all foreign material and
necrotic or badly injured tissue re-
) moved, as the presence of blood
; clots and necrotic tissue favor
anaerobic conditions which are es-
. sential for the development Of the
) etanus organism. After the wound
has been thoroughly cleaned out IL
should be swabbed u with strong
) carbolic acid, at least Is per cent.
) followed by a washing with IS per
cent alcohol, to prevent further ac-
ton of the acid. Some surgeons use
) peroxide of hydrogen instead OF
) carbolic acid.
After cauterization, by whatever
) method used, the wound should be
thoroughly washed out with a H.
600 or liz, 900 solution OF bichloride of
) mercury and packed with gauze
! soaked I'm a saturated solution of
! salicylic or boric acid and a large
) wet dressing OF the same solution
! applied. In no case should the
! wound be closed. but Ii should be
! allowed to heal by granulation. The
) dressing and packing should be re-
! newed every day"
