and scores of speeches have kept
Lorimer before the public.
1t began on April 80, 1910,
about a year after the election Of
Lorimer to tho senate, with the
publication in the Chicago Trib-
une of a story by Charles A.
White, a member of the Illinois
Legislature, exposing corruption
in that body and charging that
White had been bribed to vote
for Lorimer for senator. Shortly
after the publication of the story
Lorimer arose in the senate cham
Der and demanded an investiga-
ton of his election.
A committee Of the senate vas
appointed which spent over four
months taking testimony in the
case and in December it submit
ted a report generating Lorimer.
A minority report however sub

WOOD ASHES VALUABLE.

A farmer at Swiss writes this
Division that he has greatly i'm
proved his land by the use of
wood ashes which he gets from a
saw mill where all the scrap
timber is burned. He writes:
During the past three years l
hauled not less than 400 wagon
loads, which were broadcasted at
the rate of ten to fifteen loads
per acre, Our land is sandy,
yellow clay, and was badly run
down. The ashes have greatly
increased our yield, especially on
all kinds of German millet.

AGRICULTURAL NEWS NOTES.
In Co Operation With the Extension Division Of
the College Of Agriculture, MOiganlOwn,
LEVEL CORN CULTURE.

Very recently a farmer was
telling an instructor of the Agri-
cultural Extension Division of
the College of Agriculture, how
he was getting much larger
yields of corn by level cultivation
as compared to deep cultivation
of former years.
Did you ever tell the boys to
heap up and give it a good laying
by" Might as we'll say, boys,
dig in deep, now, and tear up
the corn roots. The larger SHOW
els may have been necessary for
the first time over in order to
kill the weeds and better prepare
the seed bed, but smaller SHOW
els should be used for the later
civilizations. Give the plant a
chance. 1t takes root to make
corn.

Senator Chiffon has been de-
tanned at his home in Charleston
since the adjournment of the
Baltimore convention. He went
straight home from Baltimore to
be present at the Kanawha coun-
ty election, and was afterwards
detained at home, where he had
a slight operation performed upon
an ear. He was unable to return
to Washington last week, but is
expected back Immediately after
the Huntington convention.
The President has signed bills
introduced by Senator Watson,
which have now become laws,
granting pensions to Samuel
Welsh, Wheeling; Thomas M.
Boylon, Glen Easton; Francis
Hawkinberry, Fairmont; Hiram
S. Shannon. Newburg; James A.
Wood, Endicott; George S. Ar
mold, Belleville; Elwood A. Col
Inns. Amos Hoy, Samuel N.
Black and Job Snyder, Parkers-
burg.
The President has also signed
bills granting pensions to Samuel
Mooney, Burning Springs George
F. Brown, Charleston; Hiram
Campbell, Creston; Homer McC.
Somerville, Moundsvile.
Senator Watson has made APP
plication to Commissioner George
M. Bowers, of the Bureau of
Fisheries, for a supply of fish for
Fishing Greek and other streams
in WetZel county.
Congressman Hamilton has
been sticking closely to Washing
ton and attending strictly to the
duties of his office. He was un-
able to get away to attend the
Huntington convention last week
because of several matters which
required his attention here. He
was necessarily absent for some
time during the last two months,
having been sent as q member of
the funeral party to accompany
the remains of Senator Nixon to
Nevada and having been at the
Parkersburg and Baltimore Con-
ventions. He expects to go to
Parkersburg for the district con-
vention on July 80 and b y reason
of these various absences he
found 1t necessary to remain
here this week instead of going
tn Huntington.
tt
Congressman Hamilton has in
troduced bills providing for the
7 payment of pension MS to Milton
Ross. Elizabeth; George r. Calf
rider, Belleville; and Mrs. l.. A.
Brannon, Parkersburg.
There is no member of the
House more regular in his atten-
dance than Congressman Hamil-
ton of West Virginia. While
many members of Congress re-
main in their offices or in com
mittee rooms attending to bust,
ness while the House is in session
Mr. Hamilton can nearly always
be found in his seat in the House
when it is in session. This fac
/ has been commented upon by
many persons who frequent tn,
capitol, and it is generally con
coded that he is among the mos
regular of all the members in hi
attendance upon the House.

AGRICULTURE L EXTENS'N SCHOOLS
ARE PROFITABLE.
A farmer at Gap Mills attend
ed the Monroe county Agricultur-
al School and became interested
in the discussion of hot house
lambs. He at once put into
practice the instructors advice
and sold his first lamb at a New
York market for $3.50, clearing
$685. above all expenses. He
expects to make this his leading
farm industry. These schools
are worth while. If you want
one in Calhoun county, write the
Director of the Agricultural Elk
tension Division, Morgantown,

Can cow peas be grown with
corn. Give directions for sowing

Cow peas may be grown with
corn, although they are liable to
slightly decrease the yield of the
corn. They may be sown broad

the corn, or sown with a one

TEN REASONS FOR ROTATION OF
CROPS.
The College of Agriculture was
asked to give reasons for crop
rotation and the following ten
were given:
1. 1t increases the yield of ev-
cry crop.
2. Different crops take maxim
um amount of food at different
seasons of the year.
3. Some plants feed near the
surface and others deep.
a. 1t helps to increase humus
in the soil.
5. Leguminous crops in rota.
ton increases nitrogen supply.
6. 1t reduces the amount oil
commercial fertilizers needed.
z. Rotation gives variety Of
crops and feed, and insures far
mers against complete crop fail
