tratlon threatens to break all records
in the history of the government in
enormous expenditure of money. It
looks now as if the appropriations
for this session of Congress would ex-
coed the appropriations of the last
regular session to the extent of about
$40 200, 600. This will be a billion
dollar session and then some.
Congressman Charles F. Barclay
OF Pennsylvania, a Cannon Republic
can, has allowed to become known
that the state of his health will not
permit him to continue as candidate
for reelection. This is the ninth
'standpatter" whose i'll health, due

rich tariff revision upward, has neces-
STATED withdrawal from the approach
ing congressional elections.
During the first ten days of May the
government spent 81, GIG, O81. IS more it

statlng the new tariff law is a success
from the standpoint Of producing
sufficient revenue to run the govern
ment, please copy.)
The Postal Bank bill, promised in
the National Republican platform as
a substitute for the guarantee of bank
deposits, is lowering between life and
death in the House Committee on
Postofices and Postroads.
Immediate statehood for Arizona

cision by the same court last Deem

Hints For Stockowners.

Dock the lambs early that are to be
kept in the flock.
The flock should be turned to pas
ture early, while there is short bite,
but leave them out only short time
at first.
The change from dry feed to pasture
should be made very gradually.
Sudden changes cause indigestion
and scours.
A run on the rye fields will be good
for the sheep and good for the rye.
The difference in the handling of
two colts may make several hundred
of dollars difference when they are
offered for sale.
Before turning the young horses and
colts to pasture. have the teeth of each
one examined by a competent veteri-
nary surgeon.
Defective teeth mayretard the growth
and development of a colt, causing a
loss.
Driving on one rein is usually
caused by sharp tooth or teeth.
Don't yank or whip the horse, but
find the cause. It may be a sharp
tooth or the harness may be ill-ftting.
Some men whip their horses because
they are in a bad frame of mind them
selves.
Hogs are waste savers. A farm
without hogs has many leaks.
The fall litter should come in early
September, if possible; therefore the
sows should be bred in May.
Do not put any other stock in
the pig pasture.
Cattle do not relish eating after pigs,
| and colts are apt to injure hogs by
chasing them.
Look out for creep holes; the little
pigs will find them.
F'ortify your wire fence by placing
boards around the bottom. The tight
er these fit to the ground the better.
Swine learn bad habits easily, and
are very cute.
The COWS should not be driven fas-
ter than walk while on the place of
milking or feeding.
Give the calves a clean lock of
bright clover or mixed hay every day.
You will be surprised how soon they
will begin to eat it.
The spring calves should be kept in
roomy box stalls the first summer, so
they can be protected from the scald-
ing sun and bothering flies.
When calf is about month old
separator milk can be given with flax
seed jelly added. Begin with about
two tablespoonful and increase to a
cupful.
This is the month. when COWS 90 to
pasture through a large part Of the
country. Give them a good start.
Keep them in good heart till they have
really made the change from hay to
grass. 1t will pay.

BASE BALL

The Tobinsport base ball club Jour-
neyed to Lewisport Sunday only to be
defeated by the fast Lewsport nine by
the score of II to 0. Lewisport found
them easy pickings, not a Pumpkin
Roller reaching third base.
900
While Lewisport was squelching the
first team the second team came over
here and made one of our patchwork
teams look like two bits and a gitney,
taking the long end of a to score,
The funny part of it was that it was
the first time some of our Toys had ever
played in match game and in the
ninth with two on bases one of those
unfortunates was at the bat and could
do nothing but split the sunshine.
900
Jupiter Pluvius had to be on hand
and spoil the game with the Evansville
Gold Blooms at Hardinsburg last week.
The two teams will clash Friday and
Saturday of this week.
600
There will likely be fast game over
the river next Sunday.
600
The West End diamond is in fine
shape and the outfield looks like new
mown lawn. But they can't WIN games
without practice. There is material
here for the best team in the county if
they would only get together 1t would
give us more pleasure than a fried
chicken dinner to get that Hardinsburg
bunch down lere and give them a good
trouncing. Will our team ever coma
back?

CLovERPoRT KENTUCKY, WEDNESDAY. AUGUST B.
HARVE MUSSELMAN
Commits Suicide at Kentucky Re.
form SchOOI...Says Cain
Called Him.
MEET NE MOTHER IN HEAVEN

Lexington, KY, Aug. l.-Despond-
ent from illness and on occount of exile
from his home, II rive Musselman, an
inmate of the Kentucky Reform School
near this city, committed suicide this
evening by hanging himself to the bed
post with the belt from his trousers.
He was 10 years old and had been only
eleven days in the institution, having
been sent up from lrvipgton, KY,
where his family live, on conviction of
HOUSEKEEPING about eleven months
ago. The boy had been accidentally
shot in the right leg, and three months
ago it became necessary to amputate
the limb just above the ankle. His af-
fiction did not prevent his committing
the crime of which he was convicted,
but ever since he has been at the school
the injured Veg has been painful and
has kept him in the hospital ward.
This afternoon he was out in the yard
playing and seemed to be cheerful, but
about $50 O'Clock he quietly slipped
back 10 his room in the hospital, and,
after tying the doorknob to the mantle
with the bed sheet so that it could not
be easily opened, he fastened one end
of his trousers belt to the bedpost and
the other end around his neck and
throwing himself off the bed, was
strangled to death. About 6 O'Clock
Mrs. Mary Wharton, a nurse, forced
open the door and found the boys life
less body.
He left a note on the mantelpiece of
the room which he had presumably
written some time during the day. The
note, which was almost undecipherabe
on account of bad writing and spelling,
was as follows:
Dear Father and Mother and George
and Tom and Lena and Katie Lou--I
will meet you in heaven at the gats S
where Cain is calling me. | will meet
you in heaven at the gates. Tell Tom
will, and Lena have been barely
living since left home, and | would
like to see you alive, but can't see you
