No farmer can get any one to take
the same pains in grading his seed that
he would himself. Some farmers claim
that 1t does not pay to clean grain.
1t is fact that it does not pay very
large returns to clean and grade grain
before selling it, but by grading our own
seed we can materially increase the yield
of our small grain crops.
The cirn crop of this country has been
Increased millions of bushels by intelli-
gent seed selection All other grain
crops can be improved by grading the
seed. so that only good, plump. healthy
grains, free from all foul weed-seeds may
be grown.
The fanning-mill, judiciousIy used, win
do much to increase the yield of every
small grain and assist in keeping our
fields free from noxious weeds.

noxious weeds, then do not hesitate to
invest few dollars in a tanning mill.

and that will do much for that
community. The association had
their own coops made, and they
were neatly ana substantially
made. The birds were shown in,
a new building on the first floor,
and everything was very neat and
attractive at this show.
While this is a new association,
every exhibitor had their birds
shown in perfect condition, show
ing plainly that the breeders In
that community are taking care or
their birds and had learned how
to put them in the very best pos
sible show condition.
Two hundred and six birds
were contained in this exhibit, and
there was also nice display OF
rabbits, and an incubator and
brooder. One thing unusual about
this show was that only three
birds entered had been bought for
this exhibition, or inside of six
months, the remainder of them
having been raised in that coun-
ty. This is something unusual at
a poultry show, but 1t proves that

A JOKE, SAYS MR.. AIKEN.
Congressman's Explanation of Quiz
zing of Palmetto Senators.

Washington, Aug. 25.-Publication
of the correspondence between Rep
resentative Wyatt Aiken, of the 2rd
South Carolina district, with the two
South Carolina senator's. in his effort
to ascertain which, if either, had made
to Governor Blease a statement about
the comparative II .lIgerce o. m:G:-
bers of the South Carolina delegation
in the house of representatives, was
the news incident OF greatest interest
to the delegation during the closing
weeks of the extra session. There
was a good deal of discussion Of the
matter among the Representatives,
but none except Mr. Aiken would say
anything for publication.
1t is fair to say that the 3rd district
congressman did not give out" the
correspondence in the sense of ask
ing that it be printed. The News and
Courier's correspondent heard from
another source that the correspond
ence existed, and when he went to Mr..
Aiken and asked if the correspondence
might be seen and copied, Mr.. Aiken
said he had no objection. Except with
regard to what he held to be the un-
satisfactory nature Of Senator Smiths
reply, Representative Aiken exhibited
in his manner no signs of i'll humor at
any time when the correspondent ap-
preached him on the subject of his
quest.
Just before congress adjourned, Mr..
Aiken said that he was surprised to
see how much Importance had been at
tached to the incident in some OF the
South Carolina papers. He declared
that he had written his letters of in
quiry largely in spirit of mischief,
and that he regarded the whole mat
ter as a joke.
