direct the planting, culture, har-
vesting, etc.
Sometime in August, probably,
there will be an invitation ex'
tended for farmers of the county
! to meet the college representative
at the county farm who will ex-
plain the paintings, cultural
methods, etc. Then again in
October when the corn is gather
ed, farmers will be invited to
come in and note the weights,
comparisons, etc. The represen-
tative of this department will be
pleased to visit any farm in the
neighborhood on invitation either
for conference or for starting
lines of demonstration work on
the private farms.
Up to date, this demonstration
work has been undertaken on
county farms in the following
counties: Jefferson, johnson,
Franklin, Coffey, Bourbon, Cher
okee, Harvey, Ellsworth, Saline
and Jewell. Work is also being
done on the farm of C. H. Clark,
near Colony. Twenty other
counties can be cared for after
July 1. There are in the Office
now several applications. After
next January about twenty other
farms can be taken.
Unusual interest has been
taken in the Cherokee county
work by the people in general,
and the officials in particular, at
and near Columbus. Shortly
following the visit of the college
representative, when the soil and
subsoil were sampled the COM
missioners awarded a contract to
Guignon Brothers to thoroughly
tile the six acre plot of land at
south side of farm and immedi.
ately east of the road.
To all appearances the tile
was doing its work beautifully
during the excessive rainfall that
followed shortly afterward. and
the wheat crop thereon took on a
most beautiful dark green color
almost Immediately, where it had
previously been seriously re-
arded with excessive moisture.
Following the cutting of the
wheat, this plot will be used for
some of our most important rota.
tons including our attempt at
alfalfa growing.
North of this field a quarter of
mile is situated the variety
test" plot. wherein are planted
al the varieties of corn that
were brought in, on investigation
by the farmers of the county who
had good productive ears, and by
its side, similarly planted, on the
same soil, are all the most de.
sirable kinds known to thrive
we'll under similar conditions, in
GLIDING a range of latitude from
Texas to Minnesota. We invite
the introduction of all other
kinds not yet secured, with the
hope of discovering or develop
ing greater productive capacity
than is now possessed by any
corn.
The highest yielding kinds to
be grown in its purity; the pur-
pose being to apply it in sufficient
quantities to the farmers of the
county for the betterment of their
conditions in the increased pro-
duction with their same labor on
their respective acreage for corn.
The varieties placed on this
plot this year are as follows, four

SHOOTS CHUM ~ THE HEAD.
hoy Reading Up on Indian Warfare
Dem0nstratcs-And q stabbing,

Joe Gross. 13 years old. and Willie Nc
Fadden. II. school chums, met at Willie
McFadden's home at 40 Courtlandt av-
enue, The Bronx. yesterday afternoon.
Willie had got book for Christmas that
tells all about how to shoot and lasso In
dams and he and Joe started reading il.
When they got to the shooting part
the boys found a revolver belonging to
Willie's brother. Willie aimed il at Joe
Gross and pulled the trigger. The bull
lodged in Joe's left temple.
Joe was taken TO Lebanon Hospi,al
II was thought last night that the bullet
had lodged near the brain and that he
could not live. He was conscious and
when asked II the shooting was acci-
dental said. "Of course IL was, and |
like Willie just as we'll as ! ever did He
didn't mean IT,"
Willie was sent 10 the rooms of the
Chtldrens society, Joe Gross's parents,
who live at 5S2 East i4sth street we're
notified Of the accident and hurried TO
the hospital, where his mother remained
during the night.
In the course Of fight in West Ninety-
ninth street last night William Behrens
~ years old, of 1872 Columbus avenue
stabbed his schoolmate, Peter j. Boram,
II years old, Of l04 West Ninety-ninth

dropped and,t other walked away.
Al the j. Hood Wright Hospital Il was
found that the stab was near the heart

hurt him. He was sent TO the children's

plies to the Governor OF the State. He con-
inues: 1T seems. however. that in the
opinion of these defendants the limita-
tions which restrain the actions Of kings
and Governors are but ropes Of sand to q
New York policeman. They seem TO
imagine that because they are police OFF,
GERS they are free from all constitutional
restraint and have a commission which
entities them to rove at will into private
houses, clubs or places OF business Of citi.
zens. 1t cannot be too often reiterated that
they have no such right. The act Of the
defendant Post in forcibly entering the
clubroom Of the plaintiff with a squad Of
policemen and without warrant was an
act in defiance Of the law. There can be
no question as TO the illegal character Of
the acts committed by these defendants
and that they threaten to do again what
they have done in the past
On a similar application Justice Mccall
denied an injunction sought by the
National Athletic Club because il was not
shown that the police had forced their
way into the club without a warrant
But Justice Mccall said that he agreed
heartily with the views OF Justice Sea-
bury and would certainly issue an in
junction il the conditions we're similar
to those shown in the Fairmont club

out statement tonight outlining tn
plan for the spread Of Republioanisn
in the South, which had been under dis
cussion here for two days. The author

The Republican organization Is TO be
made TO increase the ranks Of the Re.

assistance Of those who do not desire tc
ally themselves with the Republican
party as Republicans but cny wish 20
act independently Of the Democratic
party In national campaigns it was
who would take charge Of this indepen-
dent movement in each State. with a
view TO their subsequent organization
az time when such political action would
be opportune.
THE impression which has gone out
that in the conference any Of the con-
ferees were In favor OF giving up the
movement was erroneous. The ques-
ton what name clubs to be organized

OF detail in respect to which no decision

had been taken in the interest Of party
harmony in Ohio Mr.. Taft had been
represented as having been "embar-
rassed" by his brothers candidacy.
Those who know the President elect best
say this Ia absolutely untrue. They de-
clare that Congressman Burton's respon-
sibility for this statement was one OF the
things that raised the President elects
ire toward him and resulted in the throw
ing OF Burton overheard as a Cabinet
possibility. Mr.. Taft's friends declare
that he took the stand from the start that
no man ought TO be considered ineii-
happened to be President. What Mr..
Taft did believe. however. was that he
should take absolutely no part in the
contest. That Is the attitude he has
maintained. For this Mr., Taft has al
