Census Figures Given Out Last Week

FULTON COUNTY LOSES 11l.

Inc pOpulatlon VI Jne sbate D.
Pennsylvania Is 1855, Ill, accord
ing to the STATISTICS of the thir-
teenth census just made public
at Washington. This Is an in
crease OF 1852, 9a6, or 21.6 pei
cent. over 6 302, 115 IN 1900 was
1,044,101, or 1919 per cent. and
more than II times as great as II
1890 when the first census was
taken.
An increase OF 200, Doom popr
lation would entltle the State tt
six additional members on a basis
of representation of 100000
But, as the actual increase has
been 1852, 1896 In excess of the
number to give her six additiona
members, and, as a majority
fraction of the NUMBER fixed as
the basis of representation Is usr
ally allowed representation. II
Is quite likely that 39 Represen
tatives will be given the State lG
the new apportionment.
Philadelphia county, having in
creased In population from ,293,
697 in 1900 to 1,549,008 this year,
will be entitled to seven instead
of It's present six members
Allegheny county, having IN
creased IN the 0year period
frcm 775,058 to 1,018, 463, will
also be entitled to another mem
ber of the House of Representa-
tlves.
On the other hand, 10 counties
out of the 81 in the State showed
a loss OF population in the 0.yeal
period. These counties are
Adams, Bedford, Bradford
Crawford, Forest, Fulton, Junl
alta, Mexican, Montour, Perry,
Pike, Potter, Snyder, Sullivan
Susquehanna, Tioga, Union
Wayne and Wyoming.
Our own county of Fulton, was
organized on the 10Th of April
1850; and according to the census
taken that year, had a population
of 1857. The present census
shows that we have a population
of 9,703; hence it will be seen thai
we have gained 2,l36 people II
sixty years, an average gain Of
35 people year. Should we be
able to MAINTAIN that rate during
the next hundred years, we shall
be able to boast of a population o.
little more than $4,000, which
would mean that the County Con
missioners would get an annua
salary of five hundred dollars {
year, instead of three hundred
now, and the district attorney
would have the pleasure of hand
ling four hundred dollars a yeal
instead of three hundred as al
present. This information il
given for the benefit of those WHIT
may be aspiring to one or The
other of those offices, that they
may not be In too big a hurry Il
get in. The following will show
the census of the County at eacf
decennial period from 1850 )unti
the present:
1850 1857.
1860 9,137.
1870 $500.
I880-10, 149.
1690-10, 1877.
1900 1924.
1910 9,708.
From the foregoing 1T will be OBJ
served that Fulton's population
reached the high water mark II
1880. thirty years ago. Since
that time, the annual average rat'
OF decrease, has been 81. Shoult
this rate of decrease continue, i
will be little less than 120 years
until the last man, woman, ,ant
child shall have passed out from
It's borders.

MEETING A SPLENDID SUCCESS.

Despite the lnclemency of the
weather, a creditable number OF
our local farmers was present al
the opening session of the Farm
ers' Institute, held at Needmore
on Monday afternoon and Tues

Crop Production for Food
Humus, and Fertility by Prot,
Menges.
Prof. Menges says our wheat
production Is much less than
fifteen bushels per acre; but,
with proper rotation 1t can be
made to yield twenty to twenty
five bushels per acre.
We live too tar from market
to haul our produce. We should
make 1t walk to market. Sow
COW peas and turn the hogs IN,
or cut 1t for cattle, or plough it
down and sow In clover. Plough
1t down and plant in corn, feed
this TO cattle, hogs, ETC., and put
the manure on the ground al
once. This makes humus to-
gether with crop rototlon and
with humus, comes fertility.

Stop cultlvatlng your trees al
first Of July. After that the
trees are forming new buds for
next year.
Grow potatoes, tomatoes, beans
and peas.
Sow clover about the first OF
July; then, turn under IN the
spring. This will serve two pur-
poses;first as blanket for the
roots of the trees; second, as q
fertilizer. I
Always prune, in spring; cut
back to third bud.
There is no off year for trees
properly pruned.
AT seven years each tree should
yield one barrel of fruit.
MONDAY EVENING SESSION.
Newer and Better Methods OF
Poultry Keeping by w. Theo.
Whitman.
First, have good breed, and,
secondly, good chicken house
with lots OF light and sunshine,
open to the south. 1t is not nee
essary to have a warm house.
The chickens should have plenty
of fresh air and exercise.
Keep about a'foot of litter on
the ground to scratch In.
Have plenty of grit, such as
crushed limestone and oyster
shells.
Chickens just hatched should
not be fed tor, at least, AZ hours,
and then, soft feed, such as bread
and milk, etc.
Barred Plymouth Rock is the
best all.around chicken; white OF
brown Leg.horn. the best layer,

Notary Public, No. 1924 Lorain Ave"
One word more to bring the "Rev-
erend" Mr.. Dwyer's history to date:
Last summer he was booked to lee
tura in Norfolk, Va, he being still a
Methodist. The Methodist minister of
that place was told, I am informed, by
members of his congregation, Of the
Reverend" Mr.. Dwyer's history and
the result was that the lecture was
Cancelled. In July last, he appeared in
Asheville and there became an ardent
member of the Baptist church whose
pastor was-and is still, I believe, a
Reverend Doctor Vines. From Ashe-
vile he came to Anderson and made
his first public appearance in the Bap-
tist church. 7 need not add, after
all that has been said, that this man
is not and never was a priest Of the
Catholic church.
Let me conclude by asking is this
"Reverend" Augustin Dwyer credit
able expounder of the Catholic reli-
gion, or of any other religion? Is this
man the proper person to lecture to
the wives and daughters Of any COM
munity on the exalted virtue Of purity?
I am sure the good people before
whom he has spoken were altogether
unacquainted with his history other
wise they would not have endorsed
him by their presence.

FROM FATHER GWIN.
He Writes About Man Who Has Been
Attacking His Church.
Anderson Daily Mail.

Anderson Daily Mail.
Mr.. Editor: I beg space in your es-
teemed paper today to place before its
readers a matter which I trust you al
so will consider or grave Importance
to a. large number of your readers.
In the last issue Of the Messenger a
prominent news journel published
weekly in Mccormick, S. c., appeared
the following paragraph:
can interesting service at the Bap-
tist church, morning and night, Rev.
Augustin Dwyer will preach. He will
also lecture several nights next week
on Roman Catholicism, having been
educated for Catholic priest. Come
early and get a good seat. This is an
opportunity you may not enjoy again
in a lifetime.
Respectfully,
IS. R. Bass"
The 'Reverend" Augustin Dwyer
has been in our section of country
for some time.
In Greenville he lectured in the Bap-
tist church on "From Darkness to
Light or from "Romanism to Chris
tianity." In Anderson, he has lectur-
ed also in the Baptist church, on some
similar subjects Throughout Ander-
son county, I understand, he has ap-
peared at number of times in pulpit
and on platform entertaining his hear
ers with his views on "Romanism."
ssRomanism" is term that does not
express that religion to which I have
the great honor and inestimable priv
ilega of belonging and therefore / have
kept silent. But, now that the "Rev-
erend" Augustin Dwyer comes before
the public as an exponent of Roman
Catholicism and claims to speak on
that subject as one competent and
duly qualified, can keep silent no
longer without being delinquent in my
duty. That he has ceased to believe
and practice the Catholic religion is
his own affair between himself and
Almighty God and on this head, there
fore, I have nothing to say; but I have
something to say concerning the Gre
dibility of the "Reverend" gentleman
as a witness competent to speak on
Roman Catholicism or any other form
of Christianity. In proof of which,
permit me, Mr.. Editor, to submit the
following facts concerning his career
to the consideration of your readers.
He was born in Massachusetts, of good
Irish Catholic parents (more disgrace
to him!), studied some under the Je-
suit Fathers in Boston and some at
st. Francis Xavier's college in New
York. He never has been professor,
tutor nor instructor at the Catholic
University of America, as has been
stated in his circulars. He was never
matriculated there even as student
He did, however, obtain permission to

Thompson. and Mr.. McVicar Is forced
