ing that this has been a bad corn
year, the yields in the contes are re-
markable. and there is no question but
that in a favorable year they would
have been much higher. The use of

Farmers Union To
Meet at e hattanOOga

Atlanta, July 5O-Charles s.
Barrett and the national board OF
directors of the National Farmers
Union announces that the 1912
meeting Of that organization will
be held in Chattanooga the first
week in September, continuing
through the entire week.
The last meeting Of the national
organization was held in Oklahoma
City, buG it was decided to hold
the 1912 convention IN this section
and the choice has fallen on Chat
tanooga.
President Barrett says that he
expects one of the best and most
important conventions ever held,
since the organization has taken
on new life and is now perhaps
stronger than at any time in its
history, and by far the most pow
erful order of farmers this coun-
try has ever known.
In fact, within the past year or
SO there has been a complete re-
adjustment in the Farmers Union.
Dead timber has been cut out and
almost without exception the vari-
Gus state unions are solid, campact
intelligent working forces.
The Georgia union, for instance
has grown both numerically and
in the class of membership. Men
who have hoped to use the organi-
zation to further their own ends
have been dropped-to use polite
word and the new members taken
in have been of the best class of
men.
The natianal board is now at
work on the program for the
Chattanooga meeting. 1t is plann-
ed to have some of che biggest
men in the country present to
/ make addresses.

Necessity

From the New York Tribune.
 George Conan. at an after-theatre sup per at Delnonico's, was talking about the turkey trot'
 There's moving little story about the turkey trot.'" he said, with his dreamy smile. "a story that illustrates well the vcissitudes of an actors life.
 "An elderly actor said in despair to a theatrical agent one day:
 Is there nothing you can do for me I've hung around your office, out of work, for eight months now.
 The agent, as he polished his diamond ring with his red silk handkerchief an swered thoughtfuly:
 Look here. Bring yourself up te date. The turkey trot is all the go You train some animal or bird to do the turkey trot with you, and I'll get you on one of the circuits at a three-fgure salary
 'The old actor thanked the agent grate- fully. He bought an ostrich from 8 re- tired circus man, and after lot of hard work he taught the bird to turkey trot with him splerdidly. Then he reported himself to the agent again.
 But the agent. for all his promises had nothing to offer. The poor fellow turned up every day for a while, then every other day, then every third day but there was nothing doing. and at last week went by without his appearance at the agents office.
 Then the agent sent for him, and said
 Well. I've fixed you up at last. I've booked you for that turn of yours at
 But the old actor interrupted sadly:
 It's too late now he said.
 Too late? How is 1t too later" said the agent drowning.
 I've had to eat my partner muttered the old actor.

Earthworms, Ants and MoIes


 From Luke J. Doogue's Making a Lawn"
 Very often earthworms become very Idisfguring on a grass plot. Where lthere are many present it Is an indi- cation that the earth is in poor condi- ton, competed, and needing humus. An application of strong lime water will drive many to the surface, where they can be swept up; or a heavy trolling with a 1500-pouud roller will do
 much to discourage them.
 It is surprising how much damage a colony of ants can do on a lawn They should be looked after the first time they are noticed. for they work rapidly,
 and the longer neglected the more diff ficult 1t Is to eradicate them. There are many remedies recom- nlended, but the best one lies in the use of bisulphide of carbon. This is very effective, but it. has come into
 such common use that a word of cau-
 ton should be given as to its handling. It is very volatile and. when near flame, powerfully explosive. and should be handled with great care. Pour it into throw over these a mat The fumes will speedily kill all the ants. A bet
 ter way, however, is to drive a stick into the ground in several places where the colony Is located. and in these holes pour the carbon. afterward plugging the holes up tightly.
 Moles are frequently found on lawns, but they are not serious because they can be easily controlled by heavy roll ing or by traps made to catch them Where there Is a suspicion Of the pres ence of moles no time should be los' in getting after them. They sometimes work for a long time before their de- sstruotive boring are evident, ana tnen lit will take much labor to get anea' of them. Keep the heavy roller going as an excellent preventive.

at Belmont park, having eight avia- tors against the others seven.
 The weather has been simply awful. caly one day fit for flying exhibitions out of seven. But that day was T corker Skilled aviators vied with each other in their flights of skill and dar- ing and the worlds record for passen- ger carrying altitude was broken.
 But not only has MT. Berger made good his promises to bring the great est aviators to the fair frounds, but he has gathered together a number of the fastest racing machines in the world and an equal number of daring and motorcycles
 The weather interfered, each day meant big loss for the tireless pro- motor, but each day found him car rying out his promises. Unless post poned every aviator flew and every racer raced, but choppy cross winds made aerial navigation dangerous and long or high flights impossible.
 But then the sun came Friday and ihen 1t was that evidence was given of the great and wonderful possibilities of the event and the vastness and high quality of the show. Notwithstanding his heavy financial losses MT. Berger still intends to give the people the greatest show of. it's kind in the country and will continue the meet until next Wednesday, Wea tn = CT permitting the events will te doubled, and the people will be given an opportunity to witness the stunts of the airmen and the speed of the racers.
 A wonderful man is MT. Berger, high strung and quick, yet easy to regain his boise: he has been even cheerful un-. der the heart breaking strain of the past week.
 MT Berger has managed some of the greatest aviators of the world and was manager for Graham White, the. Eng fish aviator, when he paid his noted visit to Washington in an aeroplanc, making his landing in front of the White House.
 He has promoted some of the most lsuccessful aviation meets in the world, lat Baltimore, Boston, New York, Wash |ington. Harrisburg, New Orleans and Iother large cities.
 He has worked hard for the success Of
