EXERCISE YOUR FRANHGISE
tBy L. M. HEWITT

One of the sacred duties of citizen
ship is TO exercise the franchise. II
cost our forefathers many a struggle
and the shedding OF the blood of some
of the best men whom the world has
ever produced to secure for us the
recognition of this God-given right. No
man worthy of the name will lightly
neglect duty 80 dearly bought
There Is no excuse for men to stay
away from the ballot box because the
election will be a one-slded affair.
There Is higher, nobler object than
merely the victory of party. Every
man should have the full conscious
ness OF having done his full duty as a
citizen of the greatest republic on
earth. II a man knew that his vote
would be the only one cast for a prop
osition that he was convinced was
right in the sight of God, 1t would be
his duty as man and citizen to go to
the ballot box and cast that vote.
Let no Bryan man stay away from
the ballot box tomorrow. Many mat
tiers depend upon the number OF votes
cast in Bryan and Brazos county this
year. There are also constitutional
to be voted on, and every
Justice loving man will certainly want
10 cast his vote in favor of the Con-
'ederate widows.

Fertilizers for Orchards

Or. II. H. Harrington. director OF the
experiment. station at the A. & NJ
college, says.
~One of the best fertilizers and
N DDS for bringing an orchard into
better fertility is to SOW burr clover
in early fall, say about September.
tbs burr clover will grow and soon
cover he ground during the winter
ard early spring. The burr clover will

tie month of May, and should be then
turned under and the land kept in
Clean cultivation until the next fall.
when the clover seed left in the
ground will terminate and give you
another covering for the entire win
ter and early spring. The burr clover
seed will not terminate during the
summer, no matter how favorable the
conditions may appear They do not
grow before cool weather of the fall,
and ii is not necessary in the spring
to wait until the the burr clover is all
dead before blowing it under, only be
sure that a goodly part of its pods
have ripened sufficiently to reseed the
land.
AS a general thing, the Keiffer pear
does not need much fertility. The
same is true of the LeConte, since, if
well fertillzed and we'll cultivated,
their growth is liable to become too
strong and mature for fruit, and at the
same time become much more liable
TO the blight.
Apples should be pruned and fer
tilted with burr clover, as in the
case Of the peach One of the best
crops that can be raised for forage is
peanuts as this crop comprises both
grain and roughage of superior quail.
ity. Not. even alfalfa is equal to good,
clean peanuts, such as can be raised
on sandy land, nor does this crop need
any fertilizer, since frequently upon
rich land they make more tops and
less fruit, nor do they in any way i'm
poyerish the soil, but rather add to its
fertility
Sorghum and Katfir corn, and such
crops, are very severe on the land and
the value of the crops upon poor land
is decidedly less than the damage they
do to the land,

has been reported by the Wiscon

degrees and stirred constantly at
the same time. Heating is then
stopped and the milk stands per
fectly quiet from one and one-half
to two hours. 1t then curdles
slowly and the clear whey sep.
arates from the curd. Then the
curd is again heated-this time to
100 degrees while being stirred
gently. Again it is left quiet for
one hour, but not allowed to cool.
The curd settles to the bottom of
the vessel. Then much of the clear
whey may be drawn off and the
remaining c,lrd put on a cheese.

One Il per cent. Of salt is added
after the zurd has drained about
six hours. The buttermilk cheese

that of cottage cheese. Mr.. J. A.

How to Get Rid of Mosquitoes.

The first thing to do is to see
that there are no unnecessary
pools Of water, to offer breeding
places, near the premises. An
interesting and hopeful fact con-
nected with malarial mosquitoes
is that they do not fly for
great distances. Many mosquito
scourges have resulted from the
careless disposal Of water about
the back premises.
If it is impossible to drain and
fill breeding places, the. only
recourse is to thoroughly screen
the. house and promptly kill all
insects that find their way into
the house. This may be done. if
numbers justify it, by burning
pyrethrum powder in the infected
room. Persons suffering from ma
laria should be protected from the
bites of the malaria. bearing
mosquito, for in this way the
infection is spread. So far as
present knowledge goes, this is
the only way by which people
become malarious.
