WOMAN LEADS "WETS"
IN WEST VIRGINIA FIGHT.
Heads Charge In State Wide Attack
With Own Newspaper.

The greatest political battle for con.
troll of the county machinery Of the Re-
publican party in West Virginia Is be
ing waged in Mason county, and mar
shaling the "wet" wing of the party
against the "drys" is Mrs. Livia Simp'
son Poffenbarger, the wife of Judge
George Poffenbarger Of the supreme
court Of West Virginia.
It is an internecine battle, and Mrs
Poffenbarger, through the State Ga
zette, Of which she Is editor and gen.
eral manager Is fighting the fight that
gives no quarter. The State Gazette is
a weekly, but during the present fight
for the control of the county extra edi
tons are run off with the frequency OF
metropolitan afternoon journals, and
the "Ninnyhammers, which is the re-
proachful term Mrs. Poffenbarger ap
plies to the opposition, who have been
In control of the county, are being
given a life and death battle for the
saving of their political scalps.
1t is the first time in the history OF
West Virginia that the forces of either
political party have been led by q
woman.
The liquor question is the paramount
issue, and the senatorial question is q
close second, with two committees
clamoring for recognition and two sets
of candidates in the field. The faction
of which Mrs. Poffenbarger is the
head opposes the abolition of the sa
loon and favors the candidacy OF Sen
ator N. B. Scott against Representative
William z. Hubbard.

PLANTS DIE OF FEVERS.
Carbonic Acid Gas the Cause, as Witt
Humans

Humans.
Not only animals, but plants, may
suffer and die Of fevers, says Nj. Le-
clerc du Sablon. When human being
has fever he loses flesh on account
of the increased combustion, the guam
tity of carbonic acid respired from the
lungs being augmented from 20 to 100
per cent.
A plant attacked by a fever, which
may be caused by wound, rapidly
consumes its reserves of organic mat
ter and becomes enfeebled, sometimes
sufficiently to cause its death.
NJ. Leclerc du Sablon has expert
mented with potatoes rendered fever
ish by cutting them. The temperature
soon rises about l degree, and the
quantity of carbonic acid given off in
creases several hundred per cent. If
the potato survives its respiration"
after q few days becomes normal, but
it falls into an enfeebled state, resem-
bling that of a person convalescent
from a long fever.

APPLE ORCHARD Pays
Brad Hayes Refuses $4,000 for 40
Acre Orchard

The ST. Johns Republican of last week
had the following of interest to our
farmers: BRAD Hayes, who owns
about 1,400 acres near Muir, Ionia
comfy, has made great success raising
apples. He is especially proud of his
Northern Spy orchard, pronounced by
eastern experts, who travelled thousands
of miles to look at it, the best orchard
in America This orchard represents
the forty acres for which Mr.. Hayes
refused $4,000 in cash. The Muir
pioneer was sixty years of age when he
set out these trees and his friends laugh
ed at him. They told him he never
would live to reap the benefits.
Hayes laughed. He said he expected
to see the trees bear, but If he didn't he
was looking forward to future for
those whom he might leave behind
Today he views this forty acres of
sturdy, clean-limbed trees with the
greatest satisfaction.
He was one of the first Michigan fruit
raisers to see the benefits in constant
spraying and the products of his trees
have shown 80 per cent No 1 and 2
stock for years.
1t is a distinct tribute to his foresight
as a fruit grower that the Northern Spy
orchard has proved such success. Mr.
Hayes studied out all the conditions
He figured that the proposed orchard
site had the benefit of fine air drainage
one of the chief requisites of any orchard
that is to oe free from frost. Then he
nursed and cared for the little trees and
now they are repaying him hundred
fold. Last year the young orchard
netted him $1,000 clear. This year il
will do better than SIC, 900 and there i.
no way to estimate what the crop o
other years will aggregate"
