VOTE RIGHT.

No matter whether man Is called upon to vote in a territorial legisla- ture election or for president of the United States he should always eXer- else the privilege with full sense If the responsibility conferred upon him The privilege of citizenship Is somo- thing which should be accepted as 2 gift Of the most profound significance. Il Is not something which should be exchanged for any material advantage other than that for which it Is intend- ed, and never should Il be utilized for the satisfaction of some passing whim.
 In the United States and other countries today men of certain kind too often use the ballot for purposes diametrically opposite to those for which the power of the vote was wpn for the people by the shedding of rivers of blood. Such men as these. in charity. can be described only as mental degenerates. To call them by the names which. alas. their conduct so often suggests. one would be com pelled to forsake the verbal confluence found necessary in later civilization.
 All men worthy of the name should exercise their judgment honorably and without permitting such judgments to be clouded by the perverting sophis- tries of the demoralized demagogues who accept bizarre doctrines and ad- vocate them only that they might help towards the destruction of the work accomplished by centuries of thought and honest effort
 This world. particularly this coun- try. and still more particularly this territory. needs nothing worse than sanity in it's councils. All over the earth nowadays are found upstarts who strive for notoriety by the meti- ods of the circus. The evolution of the ages is lost on them and like pr1 fessional spielers they cry for the at tention of the people to their own political Quackery. To gather the mob they hold out the vaporous prospects s of future condition which could exist only in minds perverted and diseased. If they could only be confined to their own putrid limits their curse would be no greater than that of an asylum or a hospital. but the very freedom which they violate permits them to walk abroad and inculcate their de- generacy in the mentalities soft and soggy enough to receive 1t.

THE ORACLE IN MAINE IS AmBIG
 UOUS.

Maine has never yet gone demo- cratic in a presidential year. The re- turns from yesterdays election seem to show that the Dutch have retakea Holland-that the tide of democratic gain in that commonwealth. which rose to it's high water mark two years ago, in the election of Governor Plaisted on state issues. has definitely receded.
 In the election two years ago in that prohibition state. Governor Plaised stood for local option. On that issue. as the vote on the repeal of the prohibition amendment showed. the sentiment of Maine was almost evenly divided.
 This year the issues are national. The Roosevelt party had no separate ticket for governor. and the republi- cans have apparently regained the state by a smaller majority than Gov ernor Plaisted's s.75S democratic ma jority in 1910.
 Maine went republican by more than twenty thousand in the year of Clevelands first election to the presi- dency, and by more than fourteen thousand in the year of his second victory.
 So the democratic party comes out of the ordeal In better shape and with better omens than have obtained in Maine in any other presidential year since the republican party was found- ed.

Dear Sir:
We wish to write You and express our
appreciation of the benefit derivedfrom
the medicine we bought from you. Our
daughter, May, a girl of Is years of
age, had suffered greatly with female
trouble, For months she had no use of
her mind at all. She was perfectly
helpless, some one had to be constant
ly with her We bad several doctors
TO wait on her, but none of them SEEM
ed to do her any good.
We bought from you a bottle of
''Watkin's Female Remedy" and used
it. Then we bought the second bottle.
May was much improved by this time.
And now we are on the fourth bottle
and she is all right. Her mind is good
and her physical condition is Splendid.
In fact the medicine has completely
cured her, from all appearances.
We want to highly recommend"Wat
kins' Female Remedy and advise all
ome suffering with this trouble to
try it. With best wishes,
Very truly,
BEN HARRIS.

Frequency Of rainfall. On this topic
bowman and CrossIcy in their work
On "Orn say:
"Illcrc can he 10 set rule as TO the
number of times other than that the
corn should lie kept free from weeds
and grass and that the surface Of the
ground should have the best possible
mulch TO conserve the moisture. Many
fields suffer greatly from a lack Of
cultivation. either Because Il heavy
carpet of weeds has been permitted to
grow up or because Il great deal Of
moisture has been let. There are.
however. Instances whore cultivation
il 80 freq tent rs to be detrimental.
Fer example. in dry seasons. when the
rainfall is slight, there is nothing gail
Cd hy continually cultivating the fields
that already have a good dust mulch
on their surface. There is such a
thing possible as the surface becoming
somewhat compact by lying for some
time without being stirred, even though
there is not much rainfall, but to keep
continually ~cultivating corn in a dry
season, when there is a dust mulch al
ready established, is only a means Of
st.TrinGiUp the surface soil and per
hitting the air to penetrate deeper,
thus drying it out to greater extent
than would have been the case had
there been no cultiyating at this time"
While there might be an occasional
instance where ground is cultivated
to- frequently for the best results. vet
where an Instance of this kind is point
ed out we believe that it could be
matched by 100 cases where sufficient
cultivation is not given. Where corn
is planted late it frequently happens
that three cultivation will answer
every purpose, while a crop planted
early may require four and even five
tines cver in order to insure the same
good results.
A recent bulletin from the Ohio sta
ton calls attention to the fact that it
is possible to make a mistake by cul-
tivating corn too shallow. It has been
folnd at that station that a three inch
mulch will more effectively conserve
moisture than a mulch one inch or one
and a half inches deep.-Iowa Home
