From 1896 to 1908. Champ Clark
has consistently supported the national
Democratic ticket. For twenty years he
has been representative In congress
and most OF the time the house was
under Republican control.
Unfortunately, for many years, the
Democratic minority of the house wa
factional, inharmonious. But about
three years ago, Clark was chosen ITS
leader. Immediately he began to unity
and solidfv his party associates IN that
representative body. So diplomatcaliy
and masterfullv did he discharge this
task that for the first time in years
the Democratic minority moved against
the Republican majority almost as one
man. Under Clark s leadership. the
Democrats of the house took heart and
courage. the Democrats of the country
fell in line. We know the result. Since
then Clark has been the constant ad.
wiser and counsellor of the members of
the house.

A NEW OPPORTUNITY.

\ reading Of the quotations Of
the markets and as a matter Of
actual experience the people of this
country found that the price Of beef
is on the increase, and III the past
month the wholesale prices Of beef
are said to have been higher than
at any time in the past thirty
years.
This condition, it is held is one
which offers new and great op-
portunity to the South, which has
not been to great extent engaging
in the cattle business. The West
has had almost a monopoly, and
yet conditions in the South are
such as to promise to make the in
dustry most profitable one.
Farmers who have tried it have
found it to pay.
Here is an editorial from the
Southern Ruralist which gives a
clear view Of the matter. 1t SAYS
During the past month the
wholesale prices Of beef have
reached the highest point for 80
years. The present generation has
never seen the cost Of most Of the
necessities Of life SO high as today.
Neither war nor famine is response
bic for this fact. The general CON
dition involved has been often dis
cussed in these columns. At pres
ent we propose to conline ourselves
to a few thoughts relative to this
meat proposition.
1T is true that the price Of beef
IS arbitrarily fixed BY the great
packing houses which control its
dressing and distribution. It i
even more important, however
that the law Of supply and demand
remains the chief factor III varia-
tons III pr1Cc. y ereIhlS not true
the packers would fix permanent
" high and invariable price.
1t IS to the present condition OF
this source of supply that We De
sire to call attention.

days have been 50 per cent shor

Good Preservation of Seed Corn
Increases Productiveness Many
Bushels Per Acre.
By c. P Hartley

- . AA~A W.
Great progress has been made in
recent years in a more general
adoption of fall selection instead
of spring selection of seed corn,
but there is room for still greater
progress.
Nearly all farmers should
select their seed corn three to four
weeks earlier than they do. In the
South seed corn should be selected
and dried during August, in the
North early in September, and no
prudent corn farmer anywhere in
the United States will allow Octo-
Der IS to pass without having suf-
ficent seed for at least one years
planting stored where it cannot
be injured by unfavorable or un-
expected weather conditions.
Where a seed patch IS not main
tanned and seed must be selected
from the general field it should be
selected before the corn is cut and
shocked Where corn is husked
from the standing stalk the seed
should be selected several weeks
before the corn is dry enough to
husk and crib.
1t is doubtful whether the COVER
nor Of each Of the corn produc-
ing states could issue a more valu-
able proclamation each year than
one proclaiming a suitable week
for all farmers Of the state tc
gather and dry seed corn
As an excuse for not having
good seed it is customary to state
that the season was exceptional
Such seasons will continue to oc
cur, and the only way to escape
loss is by being prepared eacl

The blame can not be justly
shifted upon the season. 1t is the
farmer who fails to do his part.
Corn has been transported from a
land Of perpetual summer, where
the returning wet season permitted
the seed to germinate without hav-
ing endured winter conditions. It
has been introduced into northern
localities where the winters are
severe. It has shown a remark
able ability to adapt itself to short
summers, but is dependent upon
man to care for its seed during the
winter. Without this care the
corn crop would not perpetuate it

duty in giving the crop opportunity
to yield we'll is early selection and
preservation Of the seed

Of adapted varieties it is necessary
to save sufficient seed for two or

Any man, whether religiously in

He asserted in unmista kable terms
that the present upheaval in China is
due. TO the influence Of Christianity and

clVilzatlon and liberty, as presented
by missionaries
Mr.. LittelI said that among the prin-
clpaI causes which led up TO the over

Iact that the Manchus were a distinct
