WHY the Difference?

A week or two ago poor man
picked up some coal from a rail-
road track, where it had fallen,
and took it home to keep his fami-
ly from freezing. OF course he
was arrested and sent to prison for
the theft, and the family had to do
the best it could without his help.
Perhaps that was all right as
law should be obeyed and its in
fringement punished. But what
of coal barons and oil magnates
who so often take advantage of the
necessities caused by cold weather
to arbitrarily raise the price of
their products9
If the poor man was guilty of
petty larceny the others are moral
ly guilty of grand larceny. But
while the poor man went to Jail
the other men escape the meshes
of the law and enjoy the reputa-
tion of being shrewd men and also,
sometimes, of being generous
philanthropists.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

reach the diseased portion of the. ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that Is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inilamed condi-
tion of the mucous lining of the Eusta-
chan Tube. When this tube is inflamed
you have q rumbling sound or imp Hrfect
hearing, and when 1t is entirely closed.
fiammation can be taken out and this
tube restored to its normal condition.
hearing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out Of ten are caused by Catarrh.

How True.

We are indebted to our friend,
Mr.. j. Roger Gatewood, for .
copy of the Lakeland Ella Even
ing Telegram, a hustling little
daily published in a town abo It
the size of Mt. Sterling. We are
also glad to be able to state that
Mr.. Gatewood's condition is much
improved, which will be very
gratifying news to his many
friends.
WE LOVE TO HAND THE STRANGER
OUR COIN.
The Ocala Star, commenting on
the proposition to the merchants
of that place that they take page
advertisement in a paper published
in a distant city, gives utterance
to the following incontrovertible
truths:
I'VE all love to give the strang-
er our money. We not only
cough up our cash for an ad. in a
big city daily, which ad. nobody
reads except the printers, the
proof. readers and our own people,
but we are good thing in other
ways. We raise thousands of
dollars for a college in another
city while our own children are
taught in barn, almost any peri
patetic evangelist can lope through
the town and corral more coin in a
week than the stay-at-home preach
er can pry loose from his congre-
cation in a month; its no job at all
to raise a stack of scads to cure
sore eyes in China, but it's like
drawing eye-teeth to obtain the
funds to put our own hospital in a
decent building; we hand out
hundreds, if not thousands, every
year to give to the heathen a gos-
pei that they don't want, and
ninety-nine and nine-tenths per
cent. of them won'G have, but our
charitable organizations have to
scratch like an old hen with thir
teen chickens to obtain means for
the few cases of destitution in our
comparatively prosperous city. 1t
was ever thus, since Helen eloped
with Paris, and will probably be
so until Gabriel comes along turn
ing over tombstones trying to find
the man who ran on the republi-
can ticket for governor of Florida
in 19O8."

during the season of 1912. For
some time his owner, James r.
Mcgowan, of this city, and Wick

Mcgowan horses at the Lexington
track, have been casting about for
a location and it was finally de-
cided to keep him at the track un-

MainIeaf is one of the most gen.
orally admired colts that has ap-
peared in recent years. He was
the joint holder of the season
record for three-year-old stations,
with Atlantic Express, and is gen
orally considered the gamest colt
that has ever appeared with the
exception of Miss Stokes and in
the face of what each did the past
season considering their condition
the matter would have to be called
a draw between the pair.
Mainleaf started out the past
season in the first big stake of the
year, The Horseman at Detroit,
when he had done but one mile as
good as 2:15 due to his condition,
land got third money to Miss Stokes
and Justice Brooks in one of the
II ost sensational miles ever trotted
by a three-year-old so early in the
season. He raced out the season
though afflicted with one of the
worst quarter cracks that a horse
has ever suffered from and though
this prevented his receiving proper
preparations, he raced gamely and
showed we'll in every start.
In the Kentucky Futurity that
the greatest ill-luck of his career
befell him, and he has suffered
from some bad ones during hi
time. In this race after winning
the first and second heats in 2:084
and 2:O84, his tire collapsed on tht
first turn and carrying fiat tire
the remaining seven-eighths of Il
mile he was just barely overhauled
by Atlantic Express in 2:OS4
Even then it appeared likely that
the colt might win but the lateness
of the hour in starting caused
postponement and the colt being
sore and lame succumbed the next
day to the sound, strong, fast and
game champion, Peter Thompson,
after trotting to the quarter in 3O4.
killing clip. This was caused by
his affection by some medicine that
was put on his hoof to ease his
pain.
He will be in stud this season
while his hoof is being repaired,
usfter which, he will again be
placed in training for racing and
it is believed that if all goes well
with him in the interim that he
will acquire a record at least as
fast as his sire Mainsheet, 2:05,
and this appears to be very con-
servative one, when his achieve
ments are considered.

seeds, but we do know that the
loss is enormous. Much of this
loss can be easily prevented by u.s.
ing care in purchasing seeds and
in giving proper attention to those
produced in the farm,
1t is none too early now to Sc
cure seed for spring use, for al.
most every farmer has planned his
crops for the coming year and
knows what seeds will be required.
Purchasing early has several dis
tinct advantages. First, it allows
selection from a large stock.
Later the stock is small and natur-
ally only the seeds of poorer quail
ity are left. BY purchasing early,
dealers will be found willing to
furnish small samples of different
lots for inspection. These samples
may be tested for purity and
termination, and the seed proving
the purest and giving the most
vigorous termination selected If
seeds are ordered late there may
be delay in shipping, so that they
are not on hand when needed.
This causes worry, delay, and ex-
pense.
Good seeds should show a high
per cent. of termination, should be
free from injurious weed seeds,
free from adulteration with cheap
er seeds of similar appearance, and
should be of a variety suited to the
conditions under which it is to be
grown. There is no way of de-
termining this in case of most
seeds and the honesty of the deal
er is the only surety of getting
desirable strains or varieties.
Weed seeds and adulterations are
nearly always confined to grass
and clover seeds. Farmers should
become acquainted with the ap-
psarance of seeds of injurious
weeds and refuse to accept seed
containing them. For instruction
in identifying seeds, the farmer is
referred to Bul. 124 of this Station.
termination tests should be
made of all seeds planted, whether
the seed is produced on the farm
or bought on the market. Such
tests are simple and easily made,
and may be the means of saving
many dollars. The Experiment
Station will make tests for purity
or termination for any farmer in
ihe State without cost, if small
samples of an ounce or two of seed
are sent to the Station. In case of
the small grass seeds, such as
bluegrass and redtop, the test is
difficult and should be made at the
Experiment Station.
A simple termination tester is
made of two ordinary dinner
Jlates with smooth edges, 100 of
the seed to be tested are counted
out and placed on a damp cloth or
Olotter and covered by another
cloth or blotter of the same size.
This is laid upon one of the plates
and the other plate inverted over
1t. The tester should be kept in
warm place and enough water
added from time to time to supply
ample moisture for termination,
but not an excess.
In testing corn, each ear should
be tested, and a special box is
necessary. The method of testing
corn has been so often explained
that nearly every farmer is famil-
lar with it. Bul. 153 of this Sta
tion explains the process in detail.
The quality of corn this year is
exceptionally poor, due to the un
favorable season, and no farmer
should neglect testing his seed
corn. E. j. KINNEY,

ATTEMPTED ROBBERY

Mr.. Floyd, who lives just back OF
Mr.. s. T. Sistrunk in the third ward,
was startled Friday night when he
heard some one trying to break into
his house. He went outside, but could
see no one. and again retired. A lit
tie later in the night he was awakened
by smelling a strange odor In his
room and upon investigating he found
that some one had opened a window
in his room and thrown a quantity OF
chloroform in the room on the floor.
Mr.. Floyd was very weak and sent one
OF his children to open the front door
he could get some fresh air. When
the child opened the door she saw a
negro man run out OF the yard and
down the street In the morning Mr..
Floyd saw where the man had crawled
under the house, evidently hiding
there after his first attempt to break
into the house. Mr.. Floyd knows no
reason for the mans actions other
than for the purpose OF robbing the
house.
