conditions and crop needs.
Methods Of Planting Corn and
Cotton.
Cotton and corn are the chief
crops OF the South and occupy near
y all our cultivated land. and by
far the greater part of our attention.
Both are planted in the spring and
In rows. receiving TO a large extent

Without inquiring into all the In
nnences which may have operated TO

ed that at one time practically all OF
these crops were planted on beds
raised above tho general level OF the
ground surface. To-day. planting
on high beds Ia much less common.
but even yet most of the cotton and
corn OF the South Ia planted on beds
raised more or leas above the aver

country AZ 4 whole such row crops
are planted In three different ways:
On beds higher than the level. on

Planting on Two-Row Beds.

The advantages Of the level plant
ing are, that the land may be more
cheaply put In condition for plant
ing, may be more cheaply cultivated,
and the crop does not suffer SO Sc
verely from dry weather.
Recognizing these advantages OF
level planting, many OF our best
farmers are now planting on broad
beds, wide enough for at least two

his speech IN full as he spoke II.
This demonstration by the people,
coming from every section of the State
to plead with their representatives for .
primary election, is the beginning of a
revolt which will destroy Sanders and
Bossism, and although Sanders has tri-
umphed through the subserviency of his
allies, he can never recover from the
blow inflicted on him and his system by
a minority of the members of the Leg
stature who were unmoved by threats
or cajoling and the alluring promises
of reward. For instance, several of the
representatives, so-called, of the people
have been assured of the lieutenant gov
ernorship and other offices as if ready
forserving on a silver platter.
Il may add" said this Caucasiar's
friend, that the handling of some men
by some of the Bosses and their bench
men was pitiable These men felt the
humiliation of their position, but they
dare not demonstrate but are as lambs
being led to the shambles.
II may add" said this Caucasian
friends, that the State will soon be III
the throes of political campaign with
out parallel in the history of tht
State"
The fight is simply the people agains
the machine, and the people will tri
umph.

ARE DIVIDED ON
0LEOMARGARINE
Senator Penrose Would Increase
Tax on Near Butter-Scott
Would Do Away With It.

WASHINGTON. ID. c. Special. -
There is promise of war over oIeo-
margarine before this session Of Con-
sreSS ends Senator Penrose. of
Fennsy lVania. has introduced a bnl
increasing the tax on the product. 1t
sun is IN committee. Representative
scott, OF Kansas, has introduced a
oill IN the House doing away with the
TAX altogether. Both the Senator and
1he Representative are Republicans.
and neither is an "insurgent"
That two of the same party faith
should propose such directly contra
dictory legislation only indicates the
wide divergence Of opinion as to the
way in which Congress should regard
near-butters.
But Senator Penrose is from a coun-
try where kline are regarded more
as producers of butter than beef.
whereas, Mr.. Scott comes from KAN
sas, where milk and butter are looked
on as by-products of cattle-growing.
ana the oleOmargarine obtained from
the slaughtered beef shipped from the
kansas ranch is thought 10 be far
more important than the dairy pro-
ducts of the farm.
Mr.. Scott, who is chairman OF the
Committee on Agriculture, maintains
that the farmer receives little or no
benefit from the tax on oieo; that it
serves solely as a shield for the big
creamery owners who want to sell
utter at a higher price: that they
10 not pay any. or but little more for
milk than they paid when oIeomarga-
rine was allowed free competition with
butter. Many people insist that il is
impossible to detect the difference i'm
many cases between butter and oIeo.
1t is not deniei that bntter would
be cheaper if the oleomargarine was
not required to bear tax. Whether
the farmer would receive = smaller
price is not known.

SHIP SUBSIDY
BILL UP IN AIR
Out of Committee, But It's Pas
sage in Doubt-Only American
Built Vessels for Coast Trade.

WASHINGTON, d., G. - Special. -
AS usual, everything is ''up in the
arr as to the prospects of the House
passing a ship subsidy bill this ses-
sion. The Humphrey bill was got
out of the Committee on Merchant
Marine and Fisheries only by the ex-
ercise OF some pretty sharp practice.
although IL is not meant that the
friends OF the bill were guilty of a
trick in attaining their ends. More
or less thorough canvasses Of the
House for the purpose of ascertainina
the sentiment towards the bill have
been made and each one has left the
matter one OF very grave doubt. Pub
licly. the friends of the bill claim they
VIII carry the day in the House; Dri-
vately, they admit the situation is
very much mixed.
The provision OF the bill giving
American registry TO foreign-built
ships which may be purchased by
Americans, is giving Offense TO ship
builders Of the country, who have
been most benefited by the law. which
does not allow any but vessels built
in this country to fly the American
nag. None but vessels of this char
acter are allowed to engage in trade
between ports Of the United States
and the proposed change Of the law
does not give fOreign-built vessels of
American registry the right to engage
nm the cOastwise trade. IT is difficult
TO see that the proposed law would
render more benefit than simply TO
grant the sentimental privilege of hy-
ing the stars and Stripes.
Middle West Republicans and in
land representatives generally are on
posed TO snip subsidy. Eastern rep
rcsentatives, those along the Great
Lakes. the Gulf and the Pacific Coast
always are for it-that is. if Republi-
cans in politics.
