acre are used when sown broadcast OF
half as much when drilled. 1t can be
sown with Il grain drill by stopping up
every other hole. The saccharine va.
rieties make the best feed. If all the
sorghum is not used as green feed it
can be cut and shocked for winter use.
1t will have to be left in the field until
needed for feeding. as it spoils when
stacked.
A Good Forage Crop.
Indian corn makes good forage if
sown thickly enough. The largest
planter plates should be used, together
with the fastest drill attachment, as
thick planting makes small and tender
stalks. Corn which has well devel-
oped ears is often used as a combined
grain and forage crop for "hogging
down. The hogs are turned into the
field in the fall and left until ready
for market A few shotes turned in
later will clean up all the corn which
the fat hogs have missed. Lambs get
a great deal of feed out of the corn
field in the fall. especially if rape has
been sown at the last cultivation, and
do little damage to the corn.
Excellent fall feed can be obtained
by sowing rape or mixture of rape
and clover with the small grain in the
spring. If there is moisture enough
I'm the ground after the grain crop is
removed splendid crop of fall forage
will be available in three or four
weeks. Often the fall feed is worth
more than the grain.
An excellent forage crop for pigs is
Canada field peas. They should be
sown in the spring at the rate of one
half buShel to the acre, together with
two bushels of oats. If sown alone
the rate of seeding should be two
bushels to the acre. The hogs may be
turned on when the peas are in the
dough stage. In the southern parts
of the United States cowpeas and soy
beans may be used in the same way.
Millet yields heavily and makes a
good quality Of hay. 1t is also used
occasionally as a green feed. Milet
is a dangerous feed for horses, but
may be fed to other classes of stock
Will safety.
Succulent Crops For Winter.
While not strictly forage crops root
crops pumpkins and squashes answer
the same purpose. Sugar beets, man
gels and turnips yield heavily. but re-
| Quire considerable attention during

EARLE HODGES 0. k.

It is with pleasure that the Gra- phic notes that the candidacy o1 Earle w. Hodges for secretary oi state is being received with open arms in all sections of the state. Mr Hodges is running strictly on his qualifications and his record, both privately and publicly. In his home county he is endorsed absolutely solid, and judging from the press mo- tices and the expressions heard on the streets and in the hotels, he will be endorsed by at least three-fourths of the counties of the state at the pri- maries. Mir Hodges is a business man and if elected will run the of flee on business principles and attend to the duties just as he would his private business, giving the office his personal attention. instead Ol play = ing politics all the time, he has been busy i'll the auditors office and quali- flying himself for the position to which he aspires, hence he is not so well known among politicians as his op- ponent. but what the people need now is less politics and better men for state officials His friends in Jefer- son county believe he will be elected easily as this section of the country will be found in the Hodges column

ECZEMA CURED IN SIMPLE WAY
No More Dosing the Stomach-Cure
the Skin Through the Skin.

When you have a scratch on your
hand you wash it out and cleanse it
and then the skin cures itself.
The best skin specialists today are
agreed that the only way to cure the
skin is through the skin. For statis-
tics show that nearly all eczema suf-
ferers are perfectly healthy in all other
ways except as to their skin. And if
the eczema patients were really suf-
fering from an internal ma1ady, the
entire body and not only the skin
would be diseased.
You can prove Immediately the re-
lief of a true skin cure by using oil of
wintergreen as compounded in D. D.
D. Prescription This liquid kills the
disease germs, while toning up the
healthy part of the skin.
We have now handled this meritor-
ious and thoroughly scientific remedy
for so long and have seen its reliable
results so many times that we freely
expires our confidence. Geo. w. STAINS

Della ssMurder'' Case Is Dropped by
the Officers.

After having made a thorough inves-
tigation Of every phase of the case the
county authorities are as much in the
dark as ever as to the parents of the
baby which was devoured by dogs near
Della. One thing is certain and that
is that the woman whom the gossips of
that section connected with the case
was wrongly accused. A number of
clues yet remain and they will be fol-
lowed down though the indications at
the present time are that the murderer
of the child, if there was one, will never
be known.
Even should the mother Of the child
be located there is grave doubts wheth-
er a charge of murder could be placed
against her unless other evidence is OBJ
tanned that the child was alive at the
time of it's birth. All trace of the re-
mains have been devoured by the dogs
which unearthed them and the man
g1ed remains were not closely examin-
ed by the three or four persons who
saw them.

Premier Giolitti and Foreign Minis

deputies. They expressed profound sor-
row and said they hoped there was some
mistake in the nationality of the GRIM

TAFT NEEDS NO HELP.
He Will Attend to Appointment of
Federal Judges Himself.

Washington. March 30.-President
Taft again today stated to callers that
he did not consider the appointment
of judges to be a part of the patronage
of United States senators. The presi-
dent thinks that judicial appointments
should be free from political infiu-
ences. He considers himself to be
competent to pass upon the fitness of
them for the bench and will do SO.
At the same time he said he would be
glad to receive suggestions from sena-
tors and representatives as their
knowledge of qualifications of an ap-
plicant.
The president has several federal
judgeships to fill in the near future
and has received many calls from
senators and representatives from the
districts where the vacancies exist.
