COURTING THE FARMERS BUS.
MESS.

Time was when the business world
took what came its way from the
farmer and made no effort to get
more. That was before the day when
business realized, as it does today. that
the foundation of all prosperity rests
with the farmer and the well doing
of the farmer
1t is surprising, nowadays. the
length to which business of nearly
every line goes in order to court the
trade of the farmer. The house that
used to take only what came its way,
mostly in city trade, is inaugurating
the mail order plan of reaching the
farmer trade, and the orders of farm
ers are received now the same as the
orders of the best city customers,
with bills payable at the end of each
month. a condition of business like
this thirty years ago would have been
looked upon as being the rankest pos
sible in theory, and one that would
quickly lead to the financial ruin of
the firm attempting it,
a few years ago, too, the farmer
had to go to the towns and larger
cities if he wished demonstration
of any new piece of machinery, or if
he even wished to secure information
regarding it he would have to do all
the travelling himself in order to Sc
cure it. All this is now closely looked
after by all the larger manufacturing
firms, by complete information fur
nished by mail or by the personal visit
right out to the farm by a travelling
representative of the company. Per-
haps this one thing, more than any
thing else, is proof sufficient that the
trade of the farmer is now the most
desired by the business world.
In recent years the trade of the
farmer has been changing from the
credit to the cash plan. 1t may be
said that close to 70 per cent. of the
farmers now pay spo
cash for what they buy, whether the
purchase be a sack of sugar or an
In earlier days the farm
er went through all the credit bust |
ness he wants. He saw, too often, all |
the profits of his years work so TO |
meet the bills contracted for the COM
mon things of life, and he resolved TO
luit it as soon as possible. This res
Dlution, and the carrying out of it, has
built up a wonderful casp-paying |
trade among farmers a trade that is
he most desirable on earth, since a
sale Invariably means the cash in
hand, the very best proposition imag-
nable. Is it any wonder that more
md more are finding it to their finan-
'ial advantage to go after the farmer
rade, even to the extent that farmers
ire now frequently offered bargains
hat city buyers cannot get for them
selves?

.THAW'S COUNSEL MUST
face charge BY Bar
Hartridge Accused Of Graft in
Disbursement of Money
for Defense.

New York, May 3.-The Appellate
Division of the Supreme Court decided
today that Clifford W. Hartridge,
counsel for Harry X. Thaw. must defend
before an official referee charges of
misconduct in connection with dis
bursement of money In the first trial Of
Thaw, brought against him by the Bar
Association.
This is the second action brought by
the Bar Association against the lawyer.
The Appellate division dismissed the
first action and Hartridge claimed that
the court thereby acquitted him Of
misconduct.
New matter presented to the court
was an affidavit by Mrs. Mary c. Thaw,
declaring that she did not know what
use the lawyer was making of money
paid to him.

After supporting President 7

After supporting President Taft for
denomination for several months, more
or less half heartedly, the Louisville
Herald has discovered that he cannot be
elected and is now advocating a dark
horse. The Herald should have thought
of this before it followed Taft to the
jumping off place. Stick to your man
brother. DO like Senator Bradley adj
vised the Roosevelt following at the
State Convention. TAKE; YOUR DE-
FEAT LIKE MEN. Swallow your medi-
cine, even though you may carry a wry
face. We now commend Senator Brad
ley's advice to the Herald. to the Sen
ator himself, and all Taft men in Ken
lucky. OF course you will all be Roose-
welt men after the Chicago convention.

All is not peace and ibrotherly love in
the Kentucky Democratic camp. Recent
ly the Courier-Jourpal from the pen of
Col. Watterson denounced Cove rnor Me-
Creary and Ex-Governor Beckham as
traitors to the party, and charged that
the combine had been formed for the sole
purpose of personal advancement. What
Marse Henry fears most of all is the
election of Beckham to the United
States Senate and when this is attempt

ever, If the Democrats of Kentucky ev-

to the Senate and fail to do SO they
will deserve to be discredited by all
honest party men for all time to come.
Beckham won his fight once and was
defeated at the last by party disloyal-

Following an investigation of pub

run on the Delaware Railroad for sew
eral days without drinking water and

The new train was made up entirely
of standard steel coaches, with sepa-
