Bryan then reviewed Kern's

Bryan said the convention must

He warned the convention that

Ex-President Roosevelt made
hurried trip through the state last
Wednesday. going over the G. & D.
from Ashland to Louisville and speak
ing at q number Of points, notably
Winchester, Lexington and Louisville.
The chief address was given at Louis
vile at night where a large number
gathered to hear the distinguished
candidate.
TAFT WINS
In the county mass conventions and
primaries, held, Saturday, to select
delegates to the state convention
which met in Louisville yesterday, on
the face of the returns Pres. Taft
got 1,149 delegates, while 1877 were
conceded to the Ex-President.
The contests in the various coun-
ties were the bitterest ever known,
and. as a result, more than eight
hundred seats were questioned. In O
number of counties two conventions
were held. The party in the minority,
whether 1t happened to be for the
President or Ex-President, withdrew
in a number of instances under claims
of unfairness on the part of the
chairman and held a rump conven-
ton.
AS in the case of the Indiana Con-
vention and New York Primaries, q
great cry of fraud has gone up, Judge
O'Rear, the head of the Roosevelt
forces in the state, making sweeping
claims for Mr.. Roosevelt and charg-
ing that the Presidents advantage
was secured through the machine
methods of federal officials. Question
able methods were no doubt used,
but it is likely that about as much
could be said for one side as the
other.
McCREARY FOR CLARK
Certain expressions used by Gov. Nc
Creary in a speech at the Democratic
Harmony dinner in Louisville last
Saturday have encouraged the sup
porters of Speaker Clark, who was
also present and spoke, to claim

Speakers candidacy for the Presi-
dency.

his preference for Mr.. Clark, and II.

CONGRESS ANXIOUS TO AID
JOURN

Much anxiety is being manifested
on the part of certain Senator's and
Representatives at the prospect of a
long drawn out session, many of the
House members and a good number
of Senator'S being anxious to dis
band before the national conventions.
The chief blame for the delay is laid
upon the Senate, however, the tariff
bills not yet having been taken up,
and the appropriation measures still
awaiting consideration.
COMMERCIAL CONGRESS IN
SESSION
Following the Conference of Edu-
cation in the South, which met In
Nashville last week, the great South
ern Commercial Congress is holding

This Congress is bust

southern states. Its chief object is
to collect and disseminate informa-
tion in regard to the resources of
the South and to promote their de-
velopment.

great convention is scheduled for

TO be in favor of rejecting the terms

OF this claim thousands of the dis

the strike may be considered to be

THE MEXICAN REBELLION
The situation In Mexico is not
very different from that reported
last week. II was reported from
Washington that all available troops
would be concentrated on the Next

this gave rise necessarily to talk
Of Intervention. But the Government
promptly denied any such intention,

thought of increasing the border

The farmers Of Denmark secure the

Corn Picker In Action.

farmers are more than ever in need
of machine which will husk the corn
from the standing stalks-a machine
which will do the work Of several men.
Heretofore, about an acre was con-
sidered an average days work for one
man. A corn picker, however, will
husk several times this number OF
acres. A corn picker will, however,
not only do the work Of several men,
but it will deliver the ear corn to the
wagon in much better condition than
is done ordinarily when husking by
hand.
The corn picker is not the inspira-
ton OF a minute. 1t is the work OF
years. While necessity was the mother
of It's invention, yet II was hard work
that overcame the difficulties that con-
fronted the designers G. this machine.
One by one these difficulties have been
overcome, and the machine is now
perfected 30 that 1t does q very high
class Of work.

the middle Of June will make better
money for his feed than he will on any
bunch of pigs that he feeds during
the year.
Do not be afraid to give shoats plen-
ty of range during the winter, provid-
ing, of course, that you have good, DIR.
sleeping places and warm houses to
shelter them during the extremely cold
weather.
On each and every farm there should
be some provision made for dipping
hogs. This not only proves to be an
easy and effectual way Of disinfecting
animals which are brought on the
farm, but it also keeps them free from
lice.
Possibly there Is no other farm ami
NAL that can offer as poor an excuse
for his existence as the scrub hog. He
is an improbable animal any way you
take him.
AS an economical pork producer he
is failure Even his ability to shift
for himself does not recommend him
to the people within the limit Of his
range as he has the reputation of prey
ing upon neighboring corn fields when
food Is scarce.
His build naturally adapts him to
his manner of living since he Is long
legged, narrow in the chest, has a
long, narrow snout. This adapts him
to his manner Of living. With the
scrub hog it is root hog or de-" hence
the long snout. His narrow body aids
him in getting through small fence
cracks and If he fails to find place
large enough to go through the fence
he can soon dig under it with his long
snout.
There Is no standard of excellence
for the scrub hog since he may pos
sess almost any form except beauti-
full one; he may be of any color. ~
He has the reputation of being able
to stand all kinds Of rough treatment
and still survive.
He is regarded as being able to re-
sist disease better than the improved
breeds Of hogs. We very much
doubt whether this quality attributed
to the scrub hog is true since we have
noticed that hog cholera takes the
scrubs as well as the well-bred hog.
One thing Is sure, that the scrub hog
can consume more valuable feed and
give less in return than any other
animal that we know Of. -- 4. r
A farmer who owns herd Of scrub
hogs seldom needs any other corn crib
than his hogs.
He never gets rich selling pork, and
in fact if he depended upon his hogs
