wide and insistent demand for his nomi- nation.
 Tho situation seems to be at this writ ing that the race is to be between Leader Underwood and Speaker Clark, who are | close personal friends, and who are both working hard for the success of the party in Congress.
 Underwood's success in Georgia and Florida has had q most valuable effect on the minds of the politicians In Wash ington. These results have convinced the people that the Underwood boom Is sub stantial, that he is not merely favorits son, and that lIe must be taken into con sdeSation in all convention forecasts.
 There are other feature to the Under wood success that have put the politicians to thinking. William Jennings Bryan seemed to have no effect on the voters of Georgia and Florida, though he made a personal campaign in the two states against MT. Underwood.
 In spite of the fact that Underwood has been charged a candidate of the Wall street interests, he was elected by the farmer vote of Georgia. The cities of the state gave majorities for Wilson. The rural districts overcame this and gave a state majority to Underwood.
 MT Underwood is having to meet strong Bryan influence in North Carolina. But ft is already evident that it will have but little effect on the final result It really appears that Bryan Is no longer able to sway the people with his personal prejudices.
 If Harmon wins in Maryland Monday 1t will be further evidence that Bryan has lost his power He is fighting both Underwood and Harmon, while he seems to be trying to ride both Clark and Will son.
 He is probably stronger for Clark just now than Wilson.

APPOINT MANAGERS
 FOR THE ELECTION Little Interest Being Mani
 fested in the Fight CONTRACT AWARDED
May Not Use Present Lot for New Courthouse as Plot Is Too Small for the Edifice
 Planned

Cullman, May 5.-(Special)-Th mah- agers who will hold the local option elec- tion in this county on May 20 have been appointed by Probate Judge Burke, Sheriff C. c. Scheuing and Circuit Clerk O. S Roeen. Nothing like the interest that was manifested here in the former prohi- bition election is being shown in this elec- tion; in fact no campaign of note has been started by either side of the question: It is said, however, that the local option ists are preparing to make light cam paign, and will do nothing more than pos sibiy sending out some literature. and the vote is expected to be very light.
 The matter of awarding the contract for the completion of the sidewalk system
 in Culman was finally settled by the city council at a special meeting held in the city hall Friday night. The contract was awarded to J. l.. MullarlSy of the Mullarky Construction company, who has just com pleted the first contract awarded that concern nine months ago.
 MT. Mullarky went to work at once on the new contract and hopes to have it finished within about three months time. The extra work will amount to about $15.000
 II Is very likely that the courthouse. when 1t is built, will not be built back on the same property the former building stood on. It is considered that the lot now owned by the county as a courthouse lot is entirely too small for the large building contemplated for courthouse, and negotiations are now on whereby a deal may be made for the county to pur- chase the Madder property just across the street from the old courthouse. and the now building to be erected on this in stead of the old lot. The county commits sioners have been in session here for the past several days with this In view, and as soon as the question of buying suit | able location is settled the contract will be let for the new building.

'The farmer who raises beef cattle cannot afford to raise scrubs. especia- ally the man who expects to raise them for the market while they are young
 The problems studied in the test were: 1, to learn whether farmer can profitably raise and fatten calves and finish them for market by the time they are year old; ?, to make com parisons of southern feeds and combl- nations of feeds which can he used for fattening calves during the winter months. The experiments are outlined in mass of detail as to costs, weights, amounts of feeds and other clements of the investigation. Out of all the de- tail the following conclusion is drawn.
 farmer may expect to obtain Il reasonable profit on beef calves when he raises and fattens them on his farm and 5i1ls them when they are 12 to II months old. That is. the farmer who feeds his corn and hay to these young animals can realize more on these raw farm products when sold through tho calves than when sold as corn or hay At the same time, a large amount Of manure Is made on the farm to enrich the soil
