ject which is appealing to the farmers

teachers.
Az a result of the efforts to interest
the farmers in alfalfa, there will be
a considerable acreage in this section

school is the fact that 1t was attend

PRESIDENT WILL STRIKE BACK
COLUMBUS TALK MAY PUT HIM
IN FIELD.
Tate Chicago Address Is Expected to
Be Signal for Bitter
Struggle.

Washington, Feb. 21.-The present
week is expected to bring out decid.
eddy important features in the. clash
between the rival, presidential booms
of President Taft and Colonel ROose-
welt. The speech of the Colonel at
Columbus on Thursday is believed by
his supporters to be certain to place
him squarely in the field for the nomi->
nation. President Taft's visit to and
speech in Chicago before the Swedish
American Republican society on March
9 is expected to afford the reply and
the full measuring OF swords between
these champions of the party.
The Roosevelt Columbus speech is
expected to create special interest in
the politics of the country. and the
president may indirectly reply to it ut
Chicago. 1t is not settled what his
course will be, and he will not know
himself until he has read the speech
of the ex-president.
The president has refrained from
referring directly to Colonel Roosevelt
or his utterances, and he is o likely
to break that rule. but it will BE- pos.
sible for him to state his W posi-
tton on some of the things Mr.. Roose-
welt is supposed to be intending to
put forward as his OWN platform.
