Amarillo Antis Again Blocked.

Amarillo, Texas, Sept. 21.-A new
and unforeseen phase developed in the
local option situation in this county,
after Judge Jeter had passed favorably
on the eight permits to grant liquor
licenses for use here. The attorneys
for the prohibitionists contested the
applications for licenses and it was not
until after an all-day session Of the
court that Judge Jeter rendered his
decision in favor of the applicants for
the licenses.
No sooner was the judges decision
rendered than there was rush for
licenses, but the applicants were again
doomed to disappointment when it was
found that the sheriff. did not have the
proper receipt forms TO fill out so the
applicants could get their licenses
from the clerk
These blanks can only be secured
from the state comptroller. and it is
understood that insomuch as he re-
quested the permits returned to him
he will now refuse to furnish the
sheriff with the blanks. At any rate,
the whole matter is in his hands and
his action is being waited with keen
interest.

SHALL We HAVE
THE CIRCUS
Harnum & Bailey Want to Come to
Bryan, and II Is Up to the People
TO Say Whether They Want
Them or Not.

The proposition of the Barnum q
Bailey circus to come to Bryan, which
was presented by Mayor Maloney to
the board OF directors of the CONNER
cIal Club, is being discussed pro and
con among the citizens. No action has
been taken by either the Commercial
Club or the city council. The Eagle
took the pains this morning to inter.
view large number of the merchants
on the question. The circus people ex-
pect the city TO present them, on a
silver tray as il were, the city tax and
grounds rent The general opinion
among the business men Is that this
should not be done. Make the circus
pay every cent possible. Is the senti-
ment OF all the merchants who were
seen.
The question whether the town will
be benefited by the show or not is
looked upon In various lights. Some
say that Il brings trade to the city that
will be permanent. in addition TO the
large trade on circus day. Those who
oppose concede this fact, but say that.
though there is one big day, reaction
or calm OF at least a week follows. In
which there is practically no business
at all. One merchant said that he was
strictly opposed to its coming. He
sbld that II would take large amount
OF money out Of Bryan that should

new enterprises. He said that while
this money might come from sources
where we would never miss IL. still
the money would be gone and that It

.0NE-HUNDRED BUSHELS
OF CORN PER ACRE
}. L. ouIcksalI Says One Hundred
Texas Boys VIII Raise That
Much This Year.

Temple, Texas, Sept. 2l.-"There
are one hundred boys in Texas who
will make one hundred bushels OF corn
to the acre this year." was the en-
couraging statement of J. l.. Quicksall,
Of the United States department of
agriculture, who attended the annual
institute OF commercial secretaries
here recently. Armed with arguments.
statistics and general Information con-
cerning agricultural conditions in this
state, Mr.. Quicksall came to the con.
vention to assist the secretaries in
laying out plans for the betterment OF
agricultural methods and to offer the
cooperation OF his department to this
end
Mr. Quicksall Is strong on boys
corn clubs and the data furnished to
the convention on the success OF the
clubs so far forever closes the door
on doubt as to the feasibility of the
boys corn club NOV sment, which has
become so popular in this state during
he past year.
Everywhere the boys corn clubs
are meeting with Encouragement
continued Mr. Quicksall, "and ! am
prepared to say that the movement TO
organize the boys OF the country has
been signal success. Down in VIII
hanson county this year one OF our
boys seventeen years Of age will aver
age on seventy-fiye acres OF land
sixty-five bushels of corn to the -cre,
while right across from his land his
father, man of fifty. who has farmed
all his life, Is hoping TO pull through
with twenty-seven and a half The
farmers reply In answer to question
as to why his son was more success
ful than himself was: Oh, well, he's
learned how to cultivate from them
there corn clubs, and in my day there
warnt none OF them"
Mr.. Quicksall is accomplishing great
good through the medium Of his de-
paTtment and suggests that when the
boys OF the state have become thor
oughly organized and realize that the
farm, instead OF being a place of har-
rowing toll, is the only safeguard
against panics and the foundation OF
cry of Back to the soil" will have
to be supplemented by the slogan of
Back to the city" in order to keep our
cities and towns from being depop-
ulated.

when an officer of the army on college

there is In the country the more pros
porous we are, and the money taken
away by the circus would be gone for
ever.
One enterprising business man said
that circus day could be made the
greatest trades day of the year. The
railroads would run excursions from
all points within radius of fifty
miles and thousands of people could
be brought here to spend their money.
Let the merchants make special ad-
vertising effort as well as special
effort in displaying their goods, and
thus make the day big one for
Bryan.
OF all the merchants interviewed.
there was none who did not touch on
the fact that circus Is really en-
joyable amusement. One man said
that II is an essential to child's edu-
cation. He touched on the fact that
we town people have our theater and
can see a good show any time
during the season, while the farmers
and country people seldom have such
a chance, and circus is an amuse-
ment that is enjoyed by all.
Mayor Maloney said that the argu-
ments we're strong on both sides, and
that whatever action he might take
in regard to the matter would be for
the best interest of the people. He
stated that the city has no legal right
to remit the taxes. and II the taxes
were paid neither the citizens nor the
city council could keep the circus out.
II is not reasonable TO suppose that
the circus will care to come If the
people of Bryan do not want II, and
the matter will have to be settled
soon, for the show. If It comes at all,
will be here October 10.

HORTICULTURAL IRONY.

BY a curious horticultural irony
|the dahlia, which is the popular idol
|of all our early autumn flower shows,
has dreadfully prosaic parentage.
III has been developed from the Mexi-
can tubers, introduced about 120
years ago by the Swedish naturalist,
|Dr. Dahl, for the purely commercial
purpose of supplanting or supple
|nienting the potato. They did not
"catch on" and the dahlia dish soon
disappeared from the dinner tables,
but the gardeners at once perceived
the great value of the flower and pro-
ceeded to produce the double dahlia
and other delightful blossoms. The
tuber of the dahlia, however, is still
eaten in some parts of France.-In-

the most enormous output credited to

HINTS ON PRUNING.

pruning as follows:
/. Prune to modify the vigor OF

allowing the sap to flow into the re-
manning branches.
2, Prune to produce larger fruit
than could be produced If the vital
forces Of the tree we're divided among
a greater number Of branches.
8. Prune to give the trees desir-
able shape.
4. Prune in summer to change the
trees from wood-bearing to fruit-bear-
ling,
8. If the tree bears too much fruit
prune heavily in winter, so that the
tendency will be to wood growth.
G. Prune to remove surplus parts
or injured parts, or parts that inter-
iere with each other,
2 Prune to facilitate spraying or
harvesting.
s. Prune to facilitate tillage.-In-
