His Wooden Tariff Bill Adopted
by Senate
BY DECISIVE VOTE OF AZ TO 20
Senate Had Earlier in the Day Defeated
the Cummins Substitute for House
Measure-Amended Bill Now Goes
Back to the House.

Washington, July 26.--Ten progress
sive Republicans overthrow the regular
Republicans in the Senate late last night
when they Joined the Democrats in pass
ing the LaFolette wooden tariff bill as
substitute for the Democratic measure
framed by the House.
The LaFollette bill was adopted by
vote of AZ to 20, less than two hours
after the Republican leaders had gained
what they believed victory, when a
compromise submitted by Senator Pen
rose was passed in committee OF the
whole.
The sudden termination of the wool
tariff fight was the climax of the day,
full of surprising events. The Demo-
cratic House bill for revision of the wool
tariff was technically before the Senate
The progressives first voted for Senator
Cummins' substitute, the rates of which
were slightly above those of the Demo
cratic measure. After the progressives
were defeated here 81 to Ia, Senator
Penrose came forward with compro-
mise measure, considerably higher than
the Democratic bill, but which the reg
ular and progressive Republicans be-
lieved they could agree upon.
Led by the defeated Cummins, who
said he would accept the Penrose bill
as "step in the right direction" all
but three of the progressives rallied to
the support of the Penrose measure,
which was adopted "a to 80.
This took place in committee of the
whole.
The amended measure then passed
into the Senate proper. Meantime La
Toilette, who with Senators Clapp and
Kenyon had joined in voting against the
Penrose substitute, saw an opportunity
to pass his bill of 1911, which President
Taft vetoed.
BY a quick rally of the progressive
forces, his bill was introduced as a sub
stitute for the already amended bill. II
became the substitute for the Demo-
cratic House bill and was passed.
The progressiyes who Joined with the
Democrats were: Borah, Bristow, Clapp,
Crawford, Cummins, Grenna. Kenyon,
LsFollette, Poindexter and Works.
The amended bill goes back to the
House. The resulting tariff situation
is exactly that which followed the adop.
ton of wooden tariff at the special ses- |
sion in 1911.

MURDER STARTS A FEUD.
Killing of DR.. Walden in Lee County, Va,
Causes Lining Up of the Clans.

Jonesville, Va, July 26.--The killing
of DR.. James w. Walden, prominent
Democrat, last night, by Perry Wallin,
Republican leader, has famed a smoul-
dering political feud in Blackwater dis
trict to threatened outbreak. All
through the mountain district the clans
are lining up.
The coming trial OF two hundred noun
taineers charged with vote selling is
causing the local authorities to make
preparations for the protection of the
court and jury. They fear an outbreak
paralleling the tragedy at Hillsville last
March, when with the exception of one

the Six States in Which Plan Is
To Be Attempted.

Oyster Bay, n. Y. July 26.-Six
staunch Republican states have adopted
a plan, Col. Roosevelt said last night
for bodily capturing the Republican or
CARNATIONS by the national Progressive
party. He named Kansas, Minnesota
South Dakota. Idaho, California, Mas
sachusetts, and Washington.
In each, according to Roosevelt lead
ers, the Republican organization is in
control of the supporters of the new
party movement to an extent sufficient
to enable them to transfer the organiza-
tion virtually intact to Roosevelt. In
each case, it is the intention to retain
the name Republican and place candi-
dates for Congress and state offices on
the regular Republican ticket. In states
wherein the law requires, the name of
Taft and Sherman will be placed on the
ballots as Republican nominees, and

A WORD TO
PARENTS
Look After Your Child's Health
During the Years Of Most
Rapid Growth.

School children who are nervous, who
cannot sit quietly on chair. who are
always dropping things, and perhaps
have twitching OF the muscles I the
face, need DIR. Williams Pink Pills at
once.
Growing girls who become pale and
thin, who have tickle appetites; who
are out of breath after climbing the
stairs, and who have palpitation of the
heart after the least exertion, need
them also.
Parents of such children should not
delay the treatment. Nervous children
do not develop properly. A sickly girl
hood means sickly womanhood and
lack of blood during the years OF most
rapid growth means at-chested, listless,
ambitionless men and women later on.
Pure, rich, red blood is what is need
ed. Strength for the nerves follows
naturally. The time to correct the
need of these is now, before any more
harm is done.
Miss Carrie Z. Hathaway, of North
Houghton street, North Adams, Mass,
was cured OF anemia by DIR, Williams
Pink Pills after her case was pronounced
hopeless by her doctor. The statement
of her cure is told by her mother, Mrs.
A. A. Hathaway. "My daughter,
Carrie, was confined to her bed for two
years suffering from anemia. She
seemed to have no blood and was as
pale as a ghost. She was thin and did
not weigh more than 100 pounds, had
no strength or ambition and could no.
sit up. Her appetite was poor and she
had difficulty in breathing. No one
expected her to get well and our minis
ter, before going on his vacation, came
to bid her goodbye as he did not think
she would live until his return. We
spent hundreds of dollars but the doc
tor seemed to be puzzled and could not
help her. She had been sick for over
two years before / decided to give DIR.
Williams Pink Pills trial. The pills
gave her quick relief and cured her after
fair trial. She has had no serious
sickness since nd weighs 40 pounds.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills are wonder
full remedy and / cannot say enough in
praise OF them"
DIR. Williams Pink Pills are sold by
all druggists, or sent postpaid, on re-
ceipt OF price, so cents per box; six
boxes for $3.50 by the DR.. Williams

before When the kernels germinate

before. When the kernels germinate
you have a complete record of the VI
tality of each ear Those in which
one or more Of the kernels failed to
serminate should be discarded. Those
that show weak termination should be
put in pile by themselves. II there
is enough seed without them they
should not be used at all. If there
is not enough of the strong seed the
other will have to be used. By put
ting it on the warmest, driest soil 1t
will make fairly good growth.
Grading tho Seed.
After the corn has been tested It
should be run through seed corn
grader This will remove the irregular
butt and tip kernels and divide the
rest into several grades, according to
size. If the corn is well graded in this
way an edge drop planter will give the
best results. For kernels of different
sizes, however, the full hill drop is
prefera bic. The celebration of the
planter is an important point If an
even stand is TO be secured. By block
ing UP the planter so that the wheels
are clear of the ground and running
through a palful or so of each grade
of corn plates can be selected that will
drop the desired number of kernels
ninety-ive times out of hundred.
These plates should be put with their
particular grade Of corn in readiness
for planting time.
Preparing the Soil.
With graded seed of high germinat-
ing power and u planter properly cali
brated good stand is almost certain.
The next step is to prepare the soil to
receive the seed In sections where
there is any danger of drought it pays
to run over the fall blowing with a
harrow early in the spring. This crum-
bies the surface and checks evapora-
ton 1t also encourages the weeds to

later. AS soon as possible after the
small grain is in the disk should be-
set to work on the corn ground. Ii
there is time it pays to double disk, as
the soil is left in smoother and finer
condition. After disking the ground
should be narrowed occasionally until
planting time
In many cases corn follows corn, and
the plowing must be done in the
spring. Spring plowing should not be
