Where Does II Go =?

Practically one hundred thous-
and dollars is put up by the tax
payers of Cherokee county every
year, but just what it is spent
for no one seems to know. True,
the bills allowed by the county
commissioners are open to in
spection, but as they are pub
lished they appear in a jumbled
condition, and it would require a
Philadelphia lawyer to tell which
is what, or anything like it.
The bills are never classified
so it can be ascertained what de-
partments of the county govern
ment cost.
The people are vitality inter.
ested in knowing what becomes
of the huge taxes they pay, and
they have a right to know.

Shivering in the coolest wea.
Their experienced during the year,
and with nearly every mill so
frozen up that production is i'm
possible, and with fuel gas so
low as to make it impossible to
generate power, the output of
the field was reduced to a mini
mum during the week and will
probably remain low for ten days,
as there is no relief promised
from the cold for some time. 1t
| is only the mills that have care
fully prepared themselves against
the cold weather and using coal
or fuel oil that have continued
production. But these form only
very small portion of the total
tonnage. So long as the cold
STAYS around zero, there is little
hope of any extensive operations.
Even the buyers cannot get the
ore that is purchased loaded on
the cars, and the shipment is
not only light for the past week,
but will be light this week also.
Owing to the conditions that
prevailed, there was not any
great change to show the condi-
ton of the market. The ore
purchased was secured at Sal to
S45, but the small amount avail
able and the loss in production,
with the added demand, is likely
to make a sharp advance the
coming week. The highest price
reported paid for any lot was S4S'
Caiamine ore was so scarce
that the market was determined
by only a few car lots. Being
produced for the most part BY
the small producers, there WASH

The lead buyers were not Sc
active as before and, as a result
the price sagged to 500. Three
of the district smelters were
down during the week, invoicing
and planning changes so that thu
demand was lower than usual.

age is big, much bigger than ev'
er, and no ground is for rent any
where in this section. All this
means that the acreage for all
crops is going to be big.
And the soil is in mighty good
shape for crops. The ground is
full of moisture, and is frozen
hard. The soil in this country
needs a good freeze every few
years, and it certainly has it this
winter. This means sweet, fer
tile soil for the next crop season
And a sweet fertile. soil means
good crops, for which this Goun
try is ready. And big crops
mean big business, and big bust
ness means a good feeling.

United States, and now it is wills
rered around that Walter Roscoe
S:ubbs, the red headed insurgent
governor of Kansas, is candi-

ticket he wants Roosevelt nomin-

It seems he has finally made up
his mind that he will not be able

that he can not get another Office
of any kind in Kansas, so what
better than to run for vice presi-

But Stubs endorsement Of
Roosevelt is a mighty big load

Bermuda Grass Pays
(By F. A. Mitchell. }


Chandler, Oklahoma. Special
Agents U. S. Department of Ag-
riculture.
In this commercial age we
want everything to pay. That
is the reason we want every
southern farmer to set bermuda
grass-it pays.
Corn is our staple crop. 1t is
often planted upon our best lands,
yet the yield for the state is less
than twenty bushels per acre.
Should we set the same quality
of land to bermuda it would pas
ture three cows per acre during
the grazing season. But we give
the best of our land for corn and
cotton and alfalfa and the poorest
for bermuda because bermuda
like a mule will thrive upon short
rations and always give good re-
turns.
1t is a. part of our business to
figure with farmers upon the cost
of production of corn and cotton.
AS yet we are not able to say
what the average cost of produc-
ton of an acre of corn or cotton
would be so varying are the con-
ditions of climate and soil-but
the cost of the production of an
acre of bermuda grass is a fence
with a gate to turn the stock IN.
They will do the rest and bring
to thefarmer a larger per cent OF
clear profit than from corn or cot
ton.
Aside from the roots it will cost
between one and two dollars an
acre to set bermuda; and when
once set it will last for many
years. The land if properly hand
led will continue to increase in
fertility and productiveness. The
grass is apt to become root bound
and not do so we'll. In fact all
ground should be plowed occa-
sionally. Stirring is the life
of the ground. / like to
plow my bermuda sod every other
year. Plow it in early spring
Pack it with disc and harrow and
seed to oats. AS soon as the oats
are large enough turn on the
stock. BY the time the oats are
keaten the bermuda will be grow
ing to beat the band, and the
stock will be growing to beat al
creation.
The root system of bermuda is
something wonderful. When the
sod is plowed it leaves this mass
Iof roots to decay and add humut
to the soil. 1t also opens the
soil to air adm moisture and in
avery way prepares it for the pro
iuction of a still better crop Of
bermuda grass
With bermuda grass our land
isannot blow away and it cannot
wash. With plenty of bermuda
grass pasture our stock will have
no desire to run away and neither
will we, as il pays.
This year our corn did moi
yield over two bushels per acre
but our bermuda pastured one
COW per acre. We had our oats
but on bermuda grass, By is
\ side, kept spreading and growing
and Il was relished 81 Al kinds

 LAUDS WILSON
Says He Is One of the Strong Men Tn American Politics and Should Carry This State.

Most of the prominent Democrats of New Haven who were interviewed upon the Baltimore nomination seem ed to think that Wilson will make a strong bid for the Presidency next November, even though he was not the general favorite of New Haven Democrats.
 Governor Baldwin was asked by a Journal Courier reporter last night what he thought of the nomination of Wilson. He said:
 T have known Woodrow Wilson, for a number of years tolerably well. He began his career in Connecticut as a teacher and writer in matters of civil government and history. This was when he was one of the faculty of Wesleyan university at Middletown.
 T regard Governor Wilson as. one of the strongest men in American poll itics and among the best public speak CTS in the country. If the Democrats of Connecticut stand together, as l think they will, he will carry the State next fall.''
 Dean Henry Wade Rogers, Of the Yale Law School, who placed Cover nor Baldwin in nomination at the Bal timore convention, said:
 "I regard the nomination of Wood row Wilson as the best possible norn- ination after it was decided that Gov ernor Baldwin had no chance for the honor"
