GALLOWAY COUNTY
POLITICS is MIXED
And INTERESTING

Murray, KY, June IA. Especial. -
Galloway county presents a peculiar
political situation just at present, out
Of which the Republicans hope to
secure some blessings. The strife be-
tween Democratic factions, which re-
suited In one instance In an appeal
from the action OF the county com
mlttee to n 4. Berry, congressional
committeeman. and in another In an
lappeal to the circuit court from the
action of the county primary, Is well
known. The fight between Judge
Tom Cook and T. ]. Hanberry, OF
iChristian. for circuit Judge, was
mixed in 1t, and the success of Han
berry is secretly hailed with delight
by Republicans, who believe 1t has
made the split wider.
In all this must be considered the
rock-ribbed character OF Galloway De-
mocracy, and the penchant of the
majority party to split into factions.
However. this schism Is more serious
than any before. In the first place.
the primary contest is still pending in
circuit court on its merits. and will
lperpeluate the bitterness well on to-
ward election time, contrary TO the
usual hope OF politicians that faction
alism will have had time to die out
before fall.
In addition to this, the Murray
Ledger. Cooks organ. Is stIil fight
ling Hanberry. In its last issue II
said from indications Cook by his de-
feat at the primary will escape wha,
Is waiting for Hanberry IN November
The Hopkinsville Kentuckian, de-
ciared the race was decided by a split
in the ranks OF the night rider fac
ton, and that neither was supported
by the old law and order element
So. there is no reason why Hanberry
should appeal to the voters as a re-
former. according to the Hopkinsville
paper. On the other hand, Hanberry
was supported by the Galloway Times
a law aud order parer, and by Sena-
tor Conn Linn, the Hollands. the
Wellses. and thar faction OF Democ-
racy in GALLOWAY. which was once
known as the law and order element
The first split in Galloway came
when at the county primary, held on
eleetion day. there were more votes
cast in some precincts carried by sue
cessful candidates, than there were
democratic votes cast in the general
lelection. This induced Judge Cook
to tell the grand jury to investigate
the charge that Republicans partici-
Ipated. The trouble in the committee
larose over the charge by the Keys
faction that the other side refused
Votes to some OF their men. w. A.
berry decided the contest in favor OF
the successful side.
Taking advantage Of the situation
1.-THE Republicans nominated three
candidates. They expect many Dem
ocrats, who oppose the present coun-
lty organization, to support them. Had
ICook been nominated. these Demo
Icrats. II they worked for him, would
necessarily have to work for the
whole ticket; but since he Is defeat
led. his friends in that faction will
have no occasion to get out and work
for anyone
The Democratic majority in Gallo
way is a big thing to overcome. and
1.-The successful faction claims to have
no fear OF the outcome this time.

GILLENIA TRIFoLIATA.

Gillenia trifoliata is a valuable
plant for grouping among moisture
loving subjects. 1t starts late into
growth; it is later than spiraeas, and
produces slender purple red stems
clothed with small spiraea-like foliage
colo-ed similar to the stems. and in
moist soil 1t reaches three feet in
height. The flowers are produced
upon the extremities OF the erect
shoots, and are white, with strong
tint of rose. The greatest beauty OF
the plant lies in the leaf coloring.
which is most pronounced at the ex-
treme periods of vegetatiye growth.
In summer the foliage is a bright
russet brown, but with the advance of
autumn this color changes to purple
and crimson, the richest colors pre-
dominating in positions fully open to
the sun, and at that geason it Is con-
spicuous among herbaceous subjects.
The colored stems and leaves are
often priced when cut for associating
with flowers or other autmun tinted
foliage.-Gardener's Magazine.

THE IPoMEAs.

The principal objections to lpomeas
or Morning Glories is their excessive
seeding and their propensity to de-
generate. After these plants have
been once raised, volunteers appear
year after year, proving troublesome
weeds. The fine varieties, too, when
not highly cultivated, speedily lose
most of their beauty. There are.
however, hardy perennial varieties Of
the Ipomea which grow from tubers
ald seed so sparingly as to be free
from the first objection. A native
North American, known as the Wild
Potato Vine, or Man Of the Earth,
has large tuber and produces white
flowers four to six inches in diameter,
which, even on sunny days. remain
open until noon, and in cloudy wealth
er all day. An effective combination
may be made by planting this with
the Moonflower, which, however, Is
not hardy, but easily raised from
cuttings. The white flowers of the
Man of the Earth by day are as Silk
ing as those of the Moon vine by
night.
There is a tuberous Mexican Ipo-
mea, hardy in the Central United
States, which produces large flowers
Of light blue, and from the West In
dies there comes a Seeding Of brill
liant scarlet. BY combining the white.
scarlet and blue on the background
OF dark green. : singularly beautiful
display may be made.
There is a hardy passion vine, too,
which may be used for porches, walls
and rock-work. The cypress vine
and the wild cucumber are we'll
adapted for covering unsightly OBJ
iects, but both seed very freely. Tie
Madeira vine is preferable to either,
but its tubers do not endure our win
ters, and should be taken up in the
autumn.-American Home.

Areentina's Exposition.

The American Minister at Buenos

July 80 announcement was made, by
authority of the Argentine Minister
at Washington, that the date for re-
ceiving applications has been extend

tension secured by the American Min
lister will give manufacturers who
have not applied time to arrange for
space at this exposition. The minis

1000 square meters of space be re-

TupNING CLOVER UNDER.

We note the question Is asked
whether a heavy clover crop should
be plowed under or burned on? We
say, by all means, plow it under, and
thus add humus to the soil. We new
er burn cornstocks, even though we
seldom follow corn with corn. We
nave for thirty-five years plowed un-
der clover for corn, followed it with
wheat and then cloKer. This rotation
will preserve the fertility, as land that
has been farmed this way for sixty
years produces very excallent crops.
In addition to thisefotation we aid
in preserving the fertility by hauling
out all the manure produced or the
farm, and by feeding allst9ssfeed we
raise, and a good deal We buy, to our
cattle and hogs: We can say our
land produces better crops now than
it did thirty-five years ago when we
began the rotation and the building
up of the soil We never burn any
thing that will make humus.-A. S.,

FERTILIZERS.

Nitrate of soda, superphosphate of
lime and sulphate cf potash makes an
excellent and clean fertilizer for
house plants. Do not mix the ingre-
dients but use as desired. A tea
spoonful of each to half gallon Of
water will to considerable extent
serve as a protection against insects,
at the same time serving as plant food
when used around the roots of plants.
II the leaves of the plants are very
green, reduce the quantity Of nitrate
of soda by one-half. If the stems and
shoots are slow in growth, slightly
increase the quantity of sulpaate of
potash. When seeds and flowers are
forming, the proportion of the super
phosphate may be slightly increased

APoPLEXY IN CHICKENS.

Apoplexy in chickens is disease
Of the brain caused By the rupture OF
one Of the blood vessels. The bird is
attacked suddenly and falls down
dead or nearly so. It is usually
caused by too high feeding, but 1t
may also be due to some other cause,
such as sudden fright, violent exer-
else or strainipg when laying.
There is usually no previous warn
ing and so, in many cases. treatment:
is impossible, as the bird usually dies
Immediately. When, however, the
bird is still alive, pierce 7ein under
side of the wing and bleed freely.
This will reduce. the pressure on the
brain and often result in cure. The
bird should then be kept on a limited
diet for some time, in order to re-
duce the superfuous fat. AS pre-
ventive. regulate the diet and give
plenty of exercise.-Farmers' Home

HANDY CLOTHES HANGER.

The woman who is wondering how
she will dispose of her clothes in the
shallow cupboard of the hotel or
boarding house where she is to spend
the summer should buy several of the
new clothes hangers that will hold
five different garments in the space
usually occupied by one.
This hanger is an upright nickeled
rod, supplied with hook at the up
per end to- fasten it to shelf or rod,
and smaller one at the bottom on
which to hang blouse or skirt.
Between: the upper and lower hooks
are four horizontal rods, graduating
in size from top to bottom. Each rod
has a hook at the end. With such
hanger five articles could be hung one
above the other and removed without
lifting of all the rest, as is the usual
method in crowded closet space.
Two rods set at proper distance
apart In the closet will act as skirt
or waist support and keep the gar
ments il: good shape. - New York

was not eluding his followers as
quickly as might be, when long
cared jack rabbit jumped up from the
roadside and started down the. road
ahead of him. The would-be chicken
thief had run a few hundred feet fur
ther when the farmer and his boys
were astonished to hear the negro
shout, in voice that quavered with
fright, though unrestrained: "Say,

SUBSTITUTES FOR SKIM MILK.

Frequently the farmer has no skim
milk for feeding purposes. Then 1T
becomes necessary to feed something
else. George v. Fowler. Of Waterloo.
Iowa. recently carried out ansexDeri-
ment on the farm of Fred: Decker; and
we. quote herewith from his Eemarks
Concerning his work: When spring
came we began to feed the brood sows
corn. oil meal and bran combined. so
as to produce the same ratio of pro-
tein as oats. and bran, also adding
bulk as we'll as protein. This was
coctinued until the pigs, seventy-two
in number. were big enough to eat
some. Then oil meafand shorts were
mixed in stiff slop. This was done
so he could make better use Of pas
ture than If fed thin. Then when
weighing about seventy pounds each
they were worked onto corn with pas
ture, as during seven months Of the
year protein canabe secured through
pasture many times cheaper than in
any other form. Our air WAS to use
feed to produce plenty 81 growth at
the lowest cost during the first FIVE
months"
No doubt oil meal and shorts. and
particularly clover pasture with
light corn diet may be advantageously
used in pig raising.

Chicago. In an interview pub
lished here Lord Northcliffe, manag-
ing owner of a London newspaper, de-
clares there is great danger of war
between Germany and Great Britain.
1.-THE Americans are so busy" said
Lord Northcliffe, with the affairs Of
their own gigantic continent that they
have not the time to devote to the
study of European politics, which are
more kaleidoscope in their changes
than are those of the United States.
There is an impression in this
country that some hostility exists be-
tween the people of Great Britain and
of united Germany. I know the
Germans intimately. From childhood
/ have travelled extensively through
out most of the German States. 1
have many German family connec-
tions, and I venture to say that out
side the usual body Of Anglophobes
one meets in every country there IS
little hostility to the British on the
part of the Germans.
"And. on the other hand, there Is
in England no dislike Of Germany.
Au CUuIfdlIe, OuI StelSSb.Su diC
adapting German legislation to our
needs, and If imitation be the sim
cerest form of flattery the Germans
must be we'll pleased with our pro-
posed reproduction of their working
mems insurance, their labor bureau,
and a great many other legislative
improvem that, 1t appears to me,
would be Just as vital to the United
States as they seem to be to Great
Britain.
"Why, then, If so happy state of
affairs exists between the two ma
tions. should there be any section of
people in England to suggest the pos
sibility of war? Turn back to 1863.
Was there any friction between
France and Prussia? There was no
hostility On either side. But any
reader of Bussche's Bismarck or STAN
dard authority on the great German
Empire builder will acknowledge
there was immense preparation on
the part of Germany-a preparation
that was kept secret as far as posi-
BILE, and which also, as far as possible.

EGGS SHOWS LIGHT WEIGHT.

EGGS SHOWS LIGHT WEIGHT.
A few things besides eggs are yet
sold by number, as some kinds Of fish
ard also fruits like oranges and lem
pns, but the price varies with the
size. Eggs, however, arc eggs, wheth.
er laid by the scrub hen or the
Brahma or Rhode Island Red, whose
eggs sometimes weigh seven to the
pound, while the common hens eggs
may be 90 small that It takes dozen
to weigh a pound.
From the poultryman's point Of
view number is more desirable than
size as long as prices do not vary,
but the consumer gets less food value
in the small egg. The time is COM
ing soon when all foods will be sold
by weight and this method will show
the difference in eggs from different
breeds Of fowls. Poultrymen say that
this will tend to end the existence Of
the twelve eggs to the pound hen as
modern dairy methods have almost
driven the scrub cow off the farms.
Yet If the cook is given too large
eggs. she will have to re-write her
recipes. An egg adds certain
amount of liquid to mixture that
thickens in cooling. The old-fash-
ioned cook who measured every in
gredient possible by "the size Of al
egg," had in mind a medium, ifznot
small sized egg. AS the medium egg
weighs nine or ten to the pound. II
very large eggs are used, it is often
possible to make two take the place
of three small ones. Some recipes
for cake, like the angel and sunshine
varieties, measure eggs after break.

fully balanced as to make guess work
