JESSE WEATHERHOLT
Experiments With Dynamite. Z,
Expects To Have A Fine Crop

At Sunset ark.-Enthusias-
tic Over The New Device.

Jesse Weatherholt. the well-knowu
barber OF this city, dynamited his gar
den last Tuesday as an experiment.
During the winter months he studied
the articles on the use of explosives
in farm work which were published in
The Breckenridge Newsstand thought
IT dynamite was success on the farm
it ought to be on a garden.
Mr.. Weatherhot's garden is 40 so
feet. He used three sticks of dynamite
fifteen feet apart and exploded each
charge a short distance below the sur
face. Mr.. Weatherholt said the water
stood on his garden and there was no
way to drain it off well, so he thought
dynamite would relieve the situation
and it did. Itobroke up the top soil,
enough OF the hardpan to let the water
down in the subsoil. To get the water
of OF his garden is almost satisfaction
enough. Mr.. Weatherholt planted it in
potatoes--and also planted a row OF
potatoes in a piece Of ground where
dynamite was not used. "One thing
about dynamite. it gives one dreadful
headache, said Mr.. Weatherholt, "but
l found cure for it-just eat a strong
onion" He learned how to use the ex.
plosive on railroad work and says he
knows 1t is good thing for farm pro-
ducts. He is anxious to see it used in
an orchard.
Mr.. Weatherholt promises to let the

Holds Summons Legal

Frankfort, KY, April i0.-The Court
OF Appeals to-day affirmed the case OF
the international Harvester Company
VS.. Commonwealth, from Breckenridge
county. upholding a fine of $500 under
an indictment charging it with being a
member of pool, trust or combination
with other companies.
The company claimed that 1t had not
been legally served with process, as ii
is Wisconsin corporation. and no one
of its officers was served with summons,
the summons being served on o. LPace,
its agent in Breckinridge county.
The court here says the summons on
Pace was legal, as he was the agent
Of the Harvester Company; that 1t was
not an interference with inter state
commerce law.
This is the pioneer case in the mat.
ter of the legality of such summons,
and an appeal will likely be taken tc

Roosevelt adherents becomes more
complete.
OF the 81 delegates elected in the 81

probability that the Republican State

element, insuring at least SO delegates
for Roosevelt from this State.
The Republican organization was
stunned by the defeat Of the Taft can
candidates and had nothing to say re-
garding the result. United States
Senator Penrose, the recognized leader
of the Republican organization and
the leading Taft boomer in this State,
left the city early in the afternoon and
boarded his yacht at Atlantic City,
where he is safe from intcrviewers.
