There are still a few farmers in De

they get the chance. But they will not
get the chance, for Prof. Eckhardt
never goes on a man s place until he is
invited. There was one man, for III
stance, who spent several days voicing
his Indignation at the county super
visors for voting $4,000 to the soil inn
provement fund. Finally one of the
supervisors took him to the court house
and figured out for him that the III
creased taxes on his farm would amount
to 40 cents. Another farmer, who was
somewhat skeptical, happened to be on
neighbor' s farm one day when the
crop doctor was explaining how dol
lar or two spent for potash would do
the peat land as much good as 500 worth
of manure. Now the skeptical farmer
has in call for the crop doctor on his
own hook.

many good words for alfalfa also, and
good deal will be sown in the county
this fall. Soy beans is another crop
that the soil expert is pushing. He has
fine field on the county farm and will
have more next year. The county farm
is under his direct supervision, and he
plans to use it for demonstration pur

DEMOCRATS Will
CONTROL CONGRESS
Returns Indicate Democratic
Maj0rities in Both House
and Senate.

Chicago.-The next United States
Senate will be Democratic by ma
jority of at least four. According to
returns from all sections of the coun-
try there will be 46 Democrats in the
upper house of congress to AZ Repub-
licans. This leaves eight seats in the
doubtful column, with every prospect
Of their being swung into the Demo
crat ranks.
Senator Borah Wins in Idaho.
Senator Borah, of Idaho, Progress
sive and Republican candidate. will
probably be returned to the senate.
In Colorado, where a successor to
Senator Guggenheim is being chosen,
early returns show the race to be
close between the Democrats and Re-
publicans.
Senator Joseph M. Dixon of Mon
tana, Colonel Roosevelt's campaign
manager, is having hard time being
returned. In Massachusetts it was
still within the realm of possibility
that Senator Crane would have to
give place to either Mayor Fitzgerald,
of Boston, or Governor Foss.
Democrats Win Illinois Legislature
With returns from practically every
section of the state showing a steady
increase in Wilson's plurality, 1t was
claimed at Democratic headquarters
that Illinois will send two Democrats
to the United States senate. Colonel
James Hamilton Lewis, the regular
Democratic candidate for the senate,
who was Endorsed at the last pri-
maries, will be elected in all proba-
bility to the six-year term to fill the
place of Shelby M. Cullom.
Kansas in Doubtful Column.

Progressive, is battling with Senator

exception of Cocorino county, in
which Taft had a lead of four votes

may be Democratic senator from the
state elected as a colleague of Sena-
tor Bristow.
In Tennessee the legislature will be
Democratic, as it will in probably all
Of the southern states, thus insuring
a solid delegation of United States
senators to assist in carrying through
the Wilson ideas.
Democrats Add to Strength in House.
The next house of representatives
will be overwhelmingly Democratic.
Early returns indicated there would
be 277 Democrats, 148 Republicans
and ten of other parties, mostly Pro
gressives, in the new lower congress
sional body.
This would mean a Democratic ma
jority of 119 votes over all opposing
party strength.
There is nothing uncertain about
the next house of representatives. All
the southern states have accorded
their usual quota of Democratic mem
bers, whereas the Wilson landslide in
various eastern and northern sections
will add to the former majority of
the party.
1t looks as if Indiana will send a
solid Democratic delegation to the
lower body.
