They say that when a man is
dead,
Out of his dust will bloom
A flower like his life, to spread,
It's shadow DER his tomb.
And if his life was sweet and
Glenn,
The flower will be rose;
But DER the grouchy and the
mean
1t is weed that grows.
Some mighty man, with wealth
untold
Held all the world in scorn.
MAY spring from out the church
yard mold
A burdock or a thorn.
Some humble life whose humble
Was hemmed with doubt and
care,
May blossom on the sunlit day
A fragrance and a prayer.
1t is your daily thought and deed
That blossoms on the tomb.
You cannot live like a jimson
weed
And turn to a lily-bloom.

Sheep Are Weed Eaters.

Sheep are one kind of live

of the fact that they are great
weed-eaters. Horses and cattle
will eat only about one. fourth of
the varieties of weeds that sheen
consume greedily. When the
weed problem is one of impor

of great benefit. While the weed
problem can be handled by pron

be greatly facilitated by keepinc
the right kind Of animals on the
land. and in addition to solving
the weed problem the produc.

maintained.
Anything that will DESTROY
weeds is worthy of the farmers
attention; anything that will
maintain the fertility of the land
demands his attention. Sheen
will do both. and are therefor
entitled to the attention of every

Washington.-A nationwide move
ment to petition President Taft to
withdraw as the Republican presi-
Dental candidate is being backed by a
large number of Republican office
holders, who feel that they face defeat
in November unless the breach in the
party can be healed.
These men include members OF
Congress, members of state legisla-
lures, which will elect Senator'S; state
and county office-holders and party
candidates II the movement to pc
tition Mr.. Taft to withdraw succeeds
in gaining any volume, it is said these
same men in the interest of party
harmony may ask Colonel Roosevelt
also to withdraw as prospective can
didate for an Independent nomination
and permit a compromise selection OF
some man agreeable to both factions
Of the party.
The circulation of petitions, 1t was
declared. would start within a week.
1t was stated the movement would be-
gin spontaneously in every state. The
organizers are now circulating blank
forms of petitions and approaching
supervisors who in turn will engage
canvassers TO solicit the signatures OF
Republican voters. The authors Of the
plan expect to offer TO practically
every Republican voter in the United
States a chance to express his opinion
Of Mr.. Taft's candidacy either by sign
ing the petition or rejecting it.
The movement is in the hands OF
several we'll known members OF Con-
gress, they are being aided by many
of the extreme Roosevelt Republi-
cans The organizers OF the National
Progressive party have been sought
and it was stated that Senator Dixon
was willing to cooperate.
Information that the petitions were
to be put before the voters leaked out
No particular person is authority for
the statement and members OF Con
gress concerned were unwilling tc
stand sponsors for it until the move
ment was under way.

Child Labor Law in Effect.

Columbia.-The measure passed at

bly, providing that in cities OF 5000
inhabitants or over no child shall be
employed or permitted to work as

graph or messenger company before b

night went into effect on July i. The
provisions Of this acl apply also TO
amy theatre, concert fall or place OF
amusement" and are to be enforced
by the commissioner of agriculture or
his agents. The act is sweeping in its
nature, declaring 1t not only a misde-
meanor for any company to so employ
children, but going further and making
it violation of the law for a parent
to permit his child to engage in such
work.

COLONEL ISSUES
CALL To BATTLE
THE STATE DELEGATIONS WILL
MEET IN CONVENTION IN
CHICAGO, AUGUST S.
HAVE NAME FOR NEW PARTY
Senator Dixon Who Is Campaign
Manager For Roosevelt, Asks That
Friends of the Progressive Move
mentr Follow the Flag Into Fight.

New York-A call to the people OF
the United States who are in sympathy
with the National progressive move
ment" to send delegations to a nation
al convention to open in Chicago
August 5 was given out by United
States Senator Joseph NJ. Dixon OF
Montana, Theodore Roosevelt's cam
paign manager. The call is signed by
members of the committee chosen at
the meeting held in Chicago. And
also includes signatures of the Roose-
yelt followers in forty states.
"The Territories have no place IN
a national convention and will not be
considered" declared Senator Dixon,
in commenting upon the signatures
"As for the missing eight states, the
most of them probably will send del
egates although they have not taken
part in the call. Maine, for instance
postponed definite action because
there is now a strong fight on IN the
primaries, with the sympathy running
in favor OF the progressive movement
Delaware, North Carolina, Arkansas
and Nevada probably will take past
in the convention. Mississippi and
North Carolina may possibly be un
represented.
Each state will be expected to
select its delegates by its own para
phenalia. The representation will be
cut down to just one half that OF the
previous conventions. This was con-
sidered advisable since this convention
is to be notably a deliberative body
and 1t will certainly be composed OF a
class OF men altogether different from
those who usually attend conventions
"In all probability the convention
will adopt the name National progress
siye' for the new party. Thus far nc
issues have been authoritatively
stated"
