ONE DAY INSTITUTES
Farmers Discuss Topics of Interest
Fine Programs
ONE DOLLAR PER YEAR

There is no more honorable calling
in the business world than that of a
farmer and the man who pursues it and
makes it a success is one OF the most
independent men in the country. The
successful farmer, in the fullest mean
ing of the term, is the one who keeps
abreast with the times, not only in the
best lines of thought concerning the
farm and its possibilities, but also with
the economic problems of the day.
The state and county farmers insti-
tutes afford ample opportunity for de-
velopment in this line and every year
interest in them is increasing.
There have been three one-day insti-
tutes held in this section of the country
in the past two weeks, which have been
well attended and full of interest and
enthusiasm. They also afforded much
valuable information and instruction.
At Orleans, Jan. g, there were several
hundred present in the Maccabee and
Cleaner hall, where Fergus T. Flana-
gan was in charge and proved an ideal
man for the place. Three sessions were
held and the ladies served an excellent
dinner and supper. Banner Grange
glee club and other local talent fur
nished music. Hon. Peter VOORHEES,
was the state speaker, whose topics
were, ''The Orchard and Its Care"
Storage Crops" and "Relation of Home
and School," These subjects called out
much discussion. In speaking of the
orchard Mr.. VOORHEES, said: r"No ex-
pense should be spared in spraying and
taking care of the orchard. Apples are
not only very healthy but have influ-
ence on temperament and produces good
nature" He said they might exert an
influence for good and solve the divorce
question. Farmers should never be-
come discouraged. He said stick-to-it-
ive-ness was what won. Mrs. A. l..
Benedict brought out some very fine
points in her paper, 'Is 1t Fact, " re.
lating TO manners among farmers.
This brought Ernest Woodbridge to his
feet in leading red hot discussion and

the audience was convulsed with laugh
ter when he said he never had any
manners and the man who raised his
hat TO the ladies he always looked upon
with suspicion. The meeting was the
best one ever held in Orleans.
AT the institute held in Smyrna Jan.
Z, there was also large attendance and
the ladies of the Social club served dim
ner in the Maccabee hall, where the
meeting was held. John +. Kohn had
charge OF the program and Hon. Peter
VOORHEES, was the speaker sent out by
the state. His subjects were, 'Plant
Food, How and Where to Get It,"
'The Farm Dairy" and 1.-THE Orchard
and It's Care.n A general discussion
followed each talk and very many ex-
cellent points were developed. The
program was interspersed with music,
song and Rotations by local talent and
both morning and afternoon sessions
were profitable.

program as published last week was
carried out and the institute proved to

Save the Wood Ashes.

Save all of the wood ashes and use
around fruit trees as fertilizer. Wood
ashes are especially good for peach
trees, and they will benefit all fruit
trees and vines. In using them as a
fertilizer do not place any against the
trunk of the tree. since the strong
alkali will spoil the bark. Scatter
them thinly on the soil over a circle
as big as the top of the tree. The
feeding roots run out further than the
longest branches of the tree.

TIMES BUREAU,
AT STATE CAPITAL.

Indianapolis, Ind. August 8.-Much
Importance is attached here to the ac-
ton of the Republican candidates for
Congress, taken last Friday in an
nouncing through resolutions that they
will not support Cannon for re-efec-
ton as Speaker of the House at the
next session of Congress- but that they
will cast their votes for Congressman
Crumpacker of the Tenth Indiana dis
trict. This action was forcasted sew
eral weeks ago in these dispatches.
when it was published that the con-
gressional candidates had talked the
matter over at a former meeting and
that they had practically come to the
same conclusion. It only needed the
resolutions which were adopted last
Friday to bear ont what was said in
these dispatches at that time.
Congressman Crumpaekers long
years of service in the House at the
Representative of the Tenth Indiana
district, together with his well estab-
lished ability in the handling of public
fairs has made him the logical man
to receive the support of the Repub bill
can members of congress for speaker.
Judging from the looks of things all
| over the county 1t is going to be well
nigh impossible for Speaker Cannon
to have himself elected for another
term as speaker. and in that event Con-
gresham Crumpacker will come to
the front prominently as the man for
the place.
| A good deal has been said in regard
to Crumpacker's standpatism and il
has been said frequently that he is q
/ standpatter of the strongest type. But
Crumpacker is not as strong a stand
patter as he Is reported to be- He is
more nearly a typical Indiana repub-
lican than anything else. He cannes
/ be said to be straight out insurgent
| either. but he is as much insurgent a:
he Is stand patter, to say the least. IL
| fact, Crumpacker was punished at ont
time by Speaker Cannon for being too
progressive in his views the tariff
question, and the Congressional Rec
| ord shows this to be true.
For a number of years Crumpacke
was a member of the House Commit
tee on ways and means, the COMMITTEE
which has in its hands the preparation
of tariff laws. He had arisen to thi
exalted place through the fact that h
was one of the veteran members o
Congress and the further fact that h
had proven by his work his right to b

INDIANA REPUBLICANS NOT FOR
CANNON But FOR CRUMPACKER

member of the most important COM
mittee in the House. He was always
regular with his party on party mat
tiers. He and Speaker Cannon became
good friends.
But. when the time came for the
preparation of new tariff law Crum-
packer was suddenly removed from the
ways and means committee by Speaker
Cannon. and it was the general under
standing at the time that the removal
was made because Crumpacker sought
to reduce some of the tariff schedules
below what Cannon thought they
should be reduced.
In other words. Crumpacker stood
for a fair revision of the tariff and
Cannon punished him for this by re-
moving him from the high post of
membership on the ways and means
committee. Crumpacker was allowed
to retain his craftsmanship of the
census committee of the House, which
has had in charge the preparations for
the taking of the 1910 census. This
/ is also one of the highly important po-
sitions in the House. and Cannon I'M
doubtedly left Crumpacker at the head
| of that committee only for the reason
| that Crumpaclker was the best qualified
man in the House to handle the enorm-
Gus work.
| f Those who were acquainted with the
s. course of events during the big tariff
fight in Congress last year say thai
Crumpaeker was at all times in favor
of reductions in many of the schedules
although he voted for the Payne tariff
bill when it was before the House.
i The endorsement of Crumpacker
therefore, for the speakership. Will un
doubtedly be entirely satisfactory tx
/ the Republicans of Indiana. It mean.
two things: first, it means the elimina
ton of Cannon from the campaign il
Indiana; second, it means that Crum
packer will stand a very good ohanc'
of election as speaker, in case the mex
House is Republican. Many Republi
cans have been fearing the result of
speaking tour by Cannon in Indiana
. since they have heard from Kansas an
Nebraska, where he made speeche
prior to the primaries.
