The unions are here and they have
come to stay. Major Lacey comment
ed upon the presence of so many
farmers in the audience and said he
was glad to see them out in such
numbers. The farmer works in the
eight hour system, he works eight
hours in the forenoon and eight hours

thrusts found the humor of the crowd
Consumption and production and the
relations of the producer and the con

hit that found favor with the crowd
was when the speaker traced the ORR

southern states refused to belong to
the Union. Organized labor was cred

GREAT CORN AND GRAIN
Some Will Go One Hundred and
Twenty five Bushel to Acre.

! B. F. Shelley, of Monroe township,
was in town Monday, coming over to
get some repairs for machinery. As
! he started he pulled one ear of corn
from his field and left 1t at the Her
aid office. 1t Is fully matured, and
though still soft will be out of the
way of frost in about two weeks. The
ear measures fourteen inches long by
eight inches around and has eighteen
complete rows. Mr.. Shelley estimates
that this particular patch of twelve
acres will produce at least 125 bush
els to the acre. Heretofore the
ground has been the bed of an old
pond that was drained this spring and
put to crop for the first time. Some
grass that grew on one end of the
tract is over six feet high and of fine
quality. All corn oil Mr.. SheeIeys
place will make bumper yield.
T. L. Harris reports some good
Ethreshing records. At the mike Matri-
Ician place in Spring Creek township
last Wednesday he turned out TT
bushels of oats in one hour and forty
minutes. Mr.. Harris thinks this is
record that was never beaten by a
machine in this section Of the state
At the Joe Dusenberry place recently
Mr.. Harris threshed four acres of
wheat that produced 30 bushels. or
.52h bushels to the acre At Morris
.Crispen's, fifteen acres of oats pro-
duced 1.215 bushels, or 81 bushels to
the acre.

OIL WELL LOOKS GOOD.

An interview with Mr.. Mercy
nolds,, manager of the st. Tammany
Oil Well No. 1. developed some very
good reasons why the prospects of
finding oil are good. Mr.. McRey-
nolds is very conservative and hard
to draw out. He said that he did
not believe in giving assurances that
oil would be struck, when nobody
could ever tell whether 1t would or
not. That there was never an oil
we'll drilled that could be absolutely
foretold as an oil producer. He did
not believe it was right to promise
oil when no one could be positive of
It. He said, however. that there
were three prerequisite to fnoing.

existed wherever oil was found.
They were stratas of GYPSUM, salt
and sulphur. These he had struck

Heve he would be successful. But
to promise absolutely was something
he could not do conscientiously.
