Hospitable and genial, one was sure of
a welcome at her door and with her to

deeds were not those that are blazoned,

walk of life her virtue shone modest
and unassuming, she trod the path of
duty as she saw it, and now that she
has laid her burden down there will be
many to realize how nobly it was borne
amid the trials of time.
Her views were conservative and

Tn-County Institute AT Hanodsburg Has
A Very Successful Meeting.

The Garrard county teachers return
ed on Friday afternoon from the Tri-
County Institute meeting in Harrods-
burg, and all were loud in their praise
both of the success of the meeting and
of their treatment while in Mercer
county. The Record was remembered
by the following account of the pro-
ceedings:-
1.-The tri-co-institute which convened
in Harrodsburg July 22-27 was a great
success. Nothing was left undone by
the superintendent and the teachers
of Mercer county and the citizens of
Harrodsburg to make our stay plearur-
cable, and the good work done by the
instructors and superintendent of all
the counties go to prove that our stay
was profitable.
The institute was indeed fortunate in
securing the services of Supt. ]. T.
Coats for two days. His splendid
spirit surely enthused every rural schoo
| teacher.

visitors; Hon Jerre A. Sullivan an
Supt. John A. Nolan of Richmond VIII
each made short addresses Also Mrs
Mamie Gastineau Faulkner of Fayett
county, who came to bring greetings t
our tri-county institute.
. During the institute, number o
men representing books and periodical
visited US, among them Prof. Milto

Prof Calfee of Bearea College who's

Mr.. Sullivan would receive not exceeding one
hundred and fifty votes in this county. If the
vote were taken today Helms supporters are
drawn from both sides and the liquor question
is cutting no figure in the contest.
Sul1fvan's leader in the county is Hon.
William Bowling. Senator from this district,
the son of distiller, and one of the constant
opponents of the county unit bill.
Mr.. Booth, superintendent of one of the
plants of the Kentucky Distilleries & Ware
house Co.. and Presbyterian by the way,
will vote for Mr.. Helm. am told, but he Is not
managing Helms campaign, and is support
ing him rather lukewarmly.
In fact everybody here is for Helm without

servitude. The question you raise has occur

lent impression on our people personally, an6
officially has been of real use, Among othel
things, he has caused an appropriation to b.
made for public brildirg,a thing that we
have sought in vain for years.

The ground for sweet clover seed

With good equipment and willing

disagreeable task.
The best garden seed are not al

Demand for good, productive farm
property is steadily increasing. Some
very high prices are paid for well i'm

a sign of rust. Every affected PLAN
should be at once cut out and burned

There are very few farms on which
additional labor expended in prepar

handsome returns.
The sooner manure is spread in the
field the smaller the loss of fertilit!
incurred and the smaller the amour

generally used than any other nipple

INTRODUCTION OF QUEEN BEE
They Are More Prolific During Their
First Two Years and Should Then
Be Supplanted.

Queen bees will ordinarily live and
preside over the colony for four or
five years before being naturally SUI
perseded, but like hen they are
much more prolific layers during their
first two years. For this reason, and
also to improve your stock. this is
good time of the year to requiem your
apiary. Remove the old queen and
the bees will at once proceed
to repair the loss by con-
structing queen cells for the pro-
duction of a young one to take her
place, writes l. F. Tillinghast in the
Country Gentleman. So If you are
satisfied with the stock nothing more
is necessary, for in about twelve days
from the removal Of the old queen
young one will hatch. In such cases
from two to twenty cells will be
formed, and If your old queen is OF
choice breeding stock, remove her TO
some other colony, and on the tenth
day after cut out carefully all except
one or two cells, and give them to
your other colonies at the time that
you destroy their queens. In a day
or two these cells will hatch and any
colony will accept a newly Matched
virgin.
At some times of the year it is diff
| ficult to introduce an old queen to a
