A Few Questions to Minority

Since you confess to voting against
your party's candidate and try to de-
fend yourself by pleading what you
now style an "Unholy Alliance" we
call on you to publicly answer the
following Questions:
l. How many alliances did you
suggest in your own interest and try
to get made for yourself with the
Republican candidates for Clerk?
2. Did you do any blushing or see
anything "unholy" or hurtful to the
party when you were wanting and
trying to get. an alliance for your
benefit?
3. When your plans and efforts to
get an alliance had failed, didn't you
declare yourself candidate for Clerk
and withdraw in short time?
4. Did not S. M. Graham as an
independent candidate have as good
right as you to make deals, and in
this connection, are you true friend
of Mr.. Graham, if so, explain why
you busted yourself so in trying to
get Judge Kegley to not let DR.. Gree
YER qualify, because you claimed his
election to be void on account of a
combination or deal? Do you think
that Graham would have treated you
that way, if your desired deal had
been made?
5. Why should you vote against
the Democratic candidate for Senate,
(and by the way, did you vote aga
inst or for Daniel and Payne on ac-
count of combination or deal made
by Mr.. Graham and his selected fri
ends and advisers, and satisfactory
to them?
6. Why are you claiming that Ora
ham was sacrificed and forced off by
the County Committee, when the
Committee endorsed and supported
Graham, until he withdrew without
any solicitation or pressure from the
Committee and on terms satisfactory
10 him and his selected friends and
advisers? And in this connection,
have you ever taken the trcoubIe to
post yourself by asking Mr.. Graham
as to his withdrawal, if so, what did
he tell you?
z. Are you sure that IN the recess
es of your mind you have not figured
on the Tazewell postoffice in case of a
Democratic President and "Re-or-
gained Committee" favorable to
you? Youss were not charged with
having been an applicant, but of hav-
ing an eye on the post Office job In

tion Plant" MAJORITY.

Types of Good Ears. In Choosing
Seed Corn, Select Ears as Near the
Shape of Those Shown Here as
Possible.

parts of the ear.
Kernels should be of perfect wedge
shape, narrower or wider at the point

They should be uniform in shane.
size and color and true to the tyne or
variety. The crown or big end of the
Kernel should be such that the edges
OF the kernels slope from tip to crown.
The tip of the kernel, which is the
part attached to the cob and contains
the germ is rich in protein and oil
and of the highest feeding value. For
this reason n plump tip usually indi-
Gates vitality.
The kernels on the cob may be fr-
regular, being deeper at the butt than
at the tip. This makes the kernels
non-uniform in size and renders the
corn almost wholly unfit for seed. No
machine will plant kernels Of this type
so as TO get uniform stand.
Kernels with weak or shriveled tips
should be discarded, no matter how
well the outside Of the ear may look.
AT least So per cent. of the oil in the
Kernel is In the germ. hence corn
with well formed germs is desirable.
Tests by the Illinois experiment sta.
ton show that the oil in corn may
vary from 2h to Tx per cent. and
protein from 61a to 16 per cent. If
seed corn contains large amount of
protein and oil the crop grown from
this seed will be high in these desir-
able features.
Standard measurements for corn
produced in northern, middle and
southern Wisconsin, are as follows:
Length, northern section 8 to 9 inches,
central, 81 to Oh inches, southern S1h
to 9h inches. Long ears are objection
able because they usually have poor
butts and tips, shallow kernels and
hence a low per cent. of grain to the
ear. In general the circumference
should be three-fourths the length.
The standards for various sections in
Wisconsin are: Northern to 61h
inches, central 61 to inches, south
ern to tx inches.

what kind of corn must plant in
order to get best results?" The ques-
tion and problem recurs every spring.
Most farmers know that their seed is
defective or something is wrong, and
they want information. What large
number of farmers in this county
would be glad to know is, what proli-
fic variety of corn will be best adapt
ed to this section? We want more
than one ear to the stalk. What var
iety of prolific corn will give us two
or more matured ears in this section?

how to break him of the habit?''
Yes, we can tell you how to cure the
habit. But what do you want to
"break him of the habit" for? This
is good habit, the best habit any
hound can have. This is the only
hound we have heard of that has a
commendable habit. If we owned him
we would encourage the habit instead
of trying to "break" it. and we
would try to get him strung out afte r

Yes, we can tell you how to cure
him of the habit of "following stran-
gers" but as you live in this county
we hesitate to do so, as the county
has, already, too many sorry, NANCY,
sheep eating dogs. Let him follow.
If he IS one of these long, lank
hounds that trots with his hind legs
about three inches to the right of his
forelegs, and holds his tail at a left
oblique angle, he will "come back"
every time. If he doesn't let him 90,

Sentiment For Wilson.

AS respects the Democratic outlook
for candidates, i. would be idle to
deny that the most widespread and
spontaneous Democratic sentiment is
for Governor Woodrow Wilson of New
Jersey. There are parts of the coun-
try where the demaud for Bryan is
large enough to show him as remain
ing the popular idol of the Democra-
tic masses; and there can be no doubt
of the strong position Governor Har-
mon of Ohio holds in the confidence
of well-informed Democrats. Speaker
Clark and Mr.. Underwood grow more
prominent, rather than less, as posi-
BILE nominees of the Baltimore con-
vention. But Governor Wilson has
somehow caught the fancy of the
young men of the Democratic party,
and of political idealists in all part
les. He is fortunate, moreover, in

iasm in Mr.. William f. McCombs.
who is a Princeton graduate and
young lawye of New York City. The
money used in the Wilson campaign
is said by Mr.. McCombs to have been
contributed mostly in small sums
from people widely scattered. The
sort of opposition encountered by
Governor Wilson was of course to
have been expected and might well be
regarded as tribute to his growing
strength.

CLEAN THE EGGS.

Before sending eggs TO the store
why not clean them off? Dip them in
water and dry them with n cloth.
Some of them brought to town look
as though they had been rolled in the
ash heap or COW lot. They don't look
at all inviting Such eggs would be
hard to sell in city store. The gro
cerymen should demand that they be
clean. If the merchants would all re-
fuse to buy these dirty eggs time
or two, or at a reduced price it might
help along in the matter of cleanli-
ness all the way through. A dirty egg
is aImost as Objectionable as dirty
butter.

new ANANlAS CLUB

The Florida branch of the Ananias
Club, would respectfully submit this,
its final report:
Number of fish caught, 267, and 2
cells and 2 CARS. The longest nsh
caught measured 2 feet; the largest
one weighed 13 3-4lbs. The last
named fish furnished the whole club
of 20 people for dinner yesterday, and
there was fish left on every table.
Now Mr.. Editor, the above are the
facts on the fish question which every
member of the club will vouch for.
S. N. Huffard and r. II. Palmer, of
Graham, agreed before they left here
to make affidavit be fore the Mayor of
Graham to the above facts. In fact,
A. M. Black, of your town, ntimat-
cd that lie would stand by us in any
reasonable statement on the fish ques-
ton we might make. We really be-
lieve Mrs. BLACK would also testify to
the solemn truth of these things.
