Most of the fly dopes are fairly good

Sheep have just as important
place upon the average farm as any

Drink is all right for the hogs, but
they need some grain and vegetables
to go with their milk.
There is plenty of farm talk in the
air, but it is farm work that counts
in the bank balance.
A good plan is to make the lots
long and narrow and sow them to pas

Remember, chick coops are very
apt to become foul and unhealthy

The man who is trying to raise hogs

If horses are inclined to nab at

still not reach each other.

PROHIBITION CANDIDATE TALKS
ON CAMPAIGN ISSUES TO Big
AUDIENCE.

A splendid audience, composed OF
men. of all parties. gathered last. night
at the court house to hear the Hon.
Aaron L. Watkins. candidate for the
Vice Presidency on the Prohibition
ticket, discuss the political issues OF
the day.
Mr.. Watkins has appeared twice be.
fore in our city, but 1t was the conylc.
tion Of all present that the address
last t,ntghtZ Zwassbgs sEaet strongest ;aa
had ever delivered here. His general
theme was Progressive Politics" In
a clear and convincing manner he
proved to his hearers that of all the
political parties In American history
past and present, the Prohibition par
ty had been the most progressive, and
had pioneered more reforms III uuI
government than any,two parties com.
bIned. This seemed an extravagant
claim. but after listening to an explain.
alton Of the history OF such reforms
as civil service; initiative. referen.
dun and recall; woman suffrage: trust
regulation; direct election OF the Pres.
ident. Vice President and Senators by
vote OF the people, and OF the many
other reforms classed under the head
Of Progressive Politics. the audience
was convinced OF Its reasonableness.
IN short he demonstrated that the Pro-
hibition party was from twenty-five
TO forty years ahead OF any other par
ty ip its advocacy Of progressive Is.
sues. and that 1t was only after ten or
fifteen years Of agitation and pioneer
work, creating public sentiment, that
the leading parties would yield to the
public demands, Inserting In their
platforms what the Prohibition party
had stood for for years. He claimed
that the Prohibition party was the
only party bold enough in this cam.
paIgn TO insert a plank in Its plat.
form advocating the lengthening Of
the term OF the presidency to six
years and limiting any mans eligibil.
ity to one term only. In a calm. and
unprejudiced manner he reviewed the
position of Wilson, Taft and Roose.
welt on the liquor question, and assert
ed that in the fight for the prohibi,
tory amendment In this State, the
members OF the Prohibition party
could be counted on first, last and all
the time. With amusing illustrations.
convincing references to history, and
keen logic, he held his audience for
over an hour, closing with the
prophecy that no amendment to any
constitution could be effective with.
out a political party in sympathy
Herewith enforcing It.
In addition TO the address OF Mr..
Watkins. the Prohibition candidate for
governor In this State, Hon, j. G.
Jackson. OF Jane Lew, was presented
and spoke for a few minutes.
