and we believe that in every in
stance a satisfactory answer was
given. During Mr.. French's talk
a number of the farmers made notes
of the important ideas expressed as
they did also of the answers to
number of the questions asked.
Shortly before the afternoon
meeting was called demonstration
was given with the milking ma,
chine The operation of drawing
the lacteal fluid from gentle bo-
vine BY means Of machine operat-
ed by electricity was a novel sight.
While these machines are giving
satisfaction, they can only be used
with profit in the large dairies.
The afternoon meeting opened
with talk on wheat and so fertil-
ity by Prof. J. S Jones of the ex-
pertinent station at Moscow. HIS
talk led up to the subject of dry
farming, on which Prof. French
gave some important suggestions
The questions asked on this topic
indicated that our farmers are anx
ious to gain information that Will
enable them to obtain the best re-
suits possible from dry land farm
ing.
The breeding and care of horses
was also discussed by Prof. French,
who found his audience equally at
interested in this question as any
that had been under discussion dur.
ing the day.
A. E. Gipson, editor of the Gen
State Rural, the only agricnltura
paper published in the state, wal
with the party. Being deeply inte
rested in the dairy business, Mr.
Glpson visited the Montpelier cream
cry during the day, and to the writ
er he stated that he found it to be
model little plant. All the machin
cry, be said, was modern and out 0
the very best make. He was par
ticularly impressed with the cleanli
ness of the rooms and the perfec
sanitary arrangements.

FARMERS INSTITUTE
WAS WELL ATTENDED
Much Interest was Manifested in Lect-
ures on Dairying and Dry Farming
--Other Subjects Discussed.

The Farmers institute special, in
charge of Prof. Ii. L. French of
the Agricultural college at Moscow,
arrived In Montpelier last Sunday
and on Monday two very interest
ing meetings we're held IN Strong's
hall.
Despite the fact that the weather
was uufavorable for farmers to come
any distance, nearly every settle
ment in the county was represented,
the attendance at each meeting be.
ing about 800.
The morning meetir e was devot-
ed TO the discussion of dairying by
Prof. French, and he handled the
subject in a manner which convinc
ed his hearers that he was thorough
" famlia, with every branch Of the
industry. He ailed attention TO
the great success tn 1t has been madc
in dairy ing in other sections of the
country, and expressed the belief
thai the farmers Of Bear Lake val
ley could meet with just as great
success if they would adopt practi-
cal and modern methods in the con-
duct of the industry.
Ninety per cent Of the failures
in the dairy business. said Mr..
French, were due to the COW. Good
COWS back of creamery, with men
who are willing to properly care for
them, means success to the farmers
and success to the creamery, said
Mr.. French. He discussed at some
length the points of the different
dairy breeds, and expressed the be
lief that those best suited for thi,
section were the Holstein, Ayrshire
and Dairy Short Horn. The latter
is distinct type from the shor
Horns that are grown for beef, ant
they have proven to be profitable
for the dairy-both as to the quan
tlty and quality Of milk. They ar
a very hardy breed, an essential fea
ture for this particular section.
At the close of his talk Mr.
French announced that he woul'
gladly answer any questions tina
might be asked and from the mum
Der that were propounded it wa
quite evident that he had awakene
a keen interest in the dairy bushes
among those present. Question
were asked on points covering q

To ARRANGE FOR
HORSE SHOW

At a meeting of several of the
horse men of the county, held last
Monday afternoon the question of
holding another horse show in
Montpelier this spring was discuss
ed at some length. While the senti-
ment os those present was in favor
of show, there was some difference
of opinion as to the date when it
should be held. Some favored
holding it as late as the middle of
May, while others favored about
the same date that it was held last
year-April 20 and 2l. .
As to whether or not show will
be- held at all, depends upon the
business men of Montpelier. If
they will subscribe sufficient
amount to enable liberal premiums
to be offered for the different class
es Of stock, there is no question
but there will be fine showing Of
colts and horses on whatever dates
may be decided upon.

ON VISIT, GETS DIVORCE, WEDs
Wrote Former Husband Loving let
ters After Marrying Another.

Claiming that his wife got di-
vorce from him and remarked while
on visit to Atlanta, all the time
writing him affectionate letters ask
ing for money to defray her expens-
es, and even setting the date on
which she would return to him-and
she then divorced from him and mar
ried another man-Jacob Bloomer.
of Louisville, on Tuesday filed pc
tition for annulment of the divorce
granted Mrs. Lucy Froehlich, his
wife, in Atlanta.
Bloomer says that he and his wife
were married in 1887. In January,
19O6, he says, she went to Atlanta
on a visit, a visit that was protract-
ed from that date until December,
1908. During that period, he says,
his wife wrote him Of he enjoyable
visit she was having, professed her
love for him. and asked for money
to return to him Oil.
She never returned, however, but
in later letter said it was necessary
to undergo an opera ION, for which
money was necessary, Bloomer AYERS.
He says these promises to return
continued, aad eliminated in her SET
ting January %, Of this year, his
birthday, as the date OF the home
coming. BloOmer says he put his
house in order" for the home coming
and prepared for feasting and merry
making, but discovered that it was
ONLY a scheme of his Wife's to kill
him until it would be too late to
contest her divorce decree, the limit
being three years.
He discovered, he says. that she
brought her action for divorce only
few months after her arrival in
Atlanta In this action, he AYERS,
the fact that he was a nonresident
was not set up, nor did she file
copy OF the newspaper which served
notice of the suit, and the clerk Of
the court accordingly could not no
tify him by publication.
He also says that when she
brought the suit she had not been
resident OF Fulton county twelve
months preceding. as the law re-
uuires. He says that the whole
thing was a fraud on her part to
give him no chance to defend the
suit. In March, 1908, he says, shc
married Nathan Froehlich. and con-
tinued to write him that she was
coming home soon.
Bluomer exhibits his wlfeS sult.
In it she charges him with drunk
cnness and cruelty. One remarka-
bio charge is that he threw a pitch-
fork at her, and that she lodged be-
hind post. The fork, she said en-
tered the post and hung there.
Rloomer denies every allegation eX-
cept the one that he was married to
her.

FARMERS UNION
WILL MEET IN COLUMBIA ON
THE sSTH OF JULY.
Officers Urge q Large Attendance.
The Railroads Have Given Reduced
Rates For This Occasion.

The following call has been is
sued by the officers of the State
Farmers Union:
The meeting of the Farmers State
Union is drawing near, and we be-
speak large attendance. Reduced
railroad rates have been applied for,
and will doubtless be granted. The
convention will be held at Columbia
the fourth Wednesday in July, which
this year will come on the 2Sth. By
that time most of the farm work will
be over with, so far as concerns the
laying by Of crops, and We see no
reason why there should not be a
large and enthusiastic gathering.
Every county union should be rep
resented, if possible, for matters OF
Importance will come before the
Union for consideration. All mem
bers in good standing not delegates
will be admitted to the floor of the
convention.
We cannot too earnestly emphasize
the fact that large delegations to this
State meeting will prove to the
sceptically inclined that the farmers
mean business AMI that it Is their
purpose to better their condition as
nrD1niZp6
effort. A large attendance will not
only command the respect of out
siders but it will help mighty to-
ward inspiring confidence and en-
thusiasm among the farmers them
selves. Listlessness and indifference
ne;er yet won a victory, only ear
nestness and enthusiasm point the
way of an assured goal.
