THURSDAY, JUNE 81. 1912.
THE FLoRENTINE STATESMAN.

On the great questions OF con-
structiye statesmanshhp now inter-
esting the country, namely the
tariff, the trusts, the national cur
rency, the Taft platform Is as ex-
plicit and satisfactory as party plat
forms can be in the nature OF things.
There may be difference OF opinion,
saws the New York Sun, as to It's
recommendations, but there can be
no doubt that the Republican reso-
luton makers did not shrink or blink.
What Of the Florentihe party, the
personal party OF Theodore Roose-
welt? What are his ideas on the
subjects Of foremost concern? What
is to be the Florentine platform for
1927
Four years ago the Fiorentine
leader and orchestral hope OF the
extreme left of the progressives un-
bosomed himself on these important
subjects. He was then the president
of the United States; and then the
president of the United States calmly
remarked, in a moment of perfect
candor: II have not the qualities OF
mind to take up the trust question,
the currency question and the trans
portation questions. These things
do not interest me-"
On that occasion the Florentine
leader told the unvarnished truth.
Let us frankly give him the credit.
Since then, however he has de-
rived some ideas on the trust Ques-
ton from fellow citizens who trusted
his pledge not to run for third
term; he has studied the currency
question under the able tutelage Of
financiers like Perkins, Munsey and
Ormsby McHarg; and he has seen
transportation at its worst on the
lightning express that conveyed him
from Oyster Bay to political self
destruction.

SOAK KAFIR SEED IN
CRUDE CARBOLIC ACID.

The ants won't eat your kafir seed
If you will dip 1t in a preparation
of crude carbolic acid Just before
planting. The information comes
from DR.. T. J. Headlee, state ento-
mologist at the Kansas Agricultural
College. Says the bug man:
"The general experience Of forty
or more farmers, and the fields ex-
amined, show that early planted seed
is rarely or never injured; that sur
face planted seed is rarely injured;
that seed dipped in crude carbolic
acid or In commercial chicken dips,
and sprays made largely of carbolic
acid is only slightly injured. Ex-
periments show that dipping just
long enough to cause coating on
every seed, in the substances mem
toned, protected more than ninety
per cent.
1.-THE experience Of the farmers
consulted, and the experiments of the
farm crops department of the col
Iege, show that early surface planted
kafir has the best chance for maxi
mum yield"
Millions of tiny, orange-colored
ants, known to science as Solenopsis
molesta, have been eating the meat
out of kafir seed as it was planted.
Some fields have been replanted from
one to three times. AS soon as the
pest was reported this year, J. w.
McColloch, special agent for the
bug department went to the front.
He examined at least twenty infested
fields at Derby and Mulvane and
tried numerous experiments. He
learned that the ants ceased working
when the seed terminated, so that
protective measures must save the
seed from the ants between plant
ing and time of termination, or has
ten the termination, or both. The
final conclusions have been describ-
ed.

THE RIGHTS OF DISTRICTS.

OF all the Roosevelt contesting
delegations at Chicago, the noisiest,
maddest, most disorderly was the
California delegation. They already
had "a Roosevelt delegates from
that state, and two for Taft. But
the California bunch insisted upon
having the two Taft men thrown
out, and Roosevelt men put in their
places, because the state primary
had decided for Roosevelt. Over
this question the convention debated
Friday evening until late hour,
but the roll call showed that the
convention upheld the two Taft dele
gates from San Francisco district,
who had been fairly elected. The
California delegation felt quite sore
about It, and had actually refused
to permit the two Taft men to have
chairs in the space allotted to CAL
ornia. But they found out that the
convention as a whole was a little
bigger force than little old Cali
fornia.
The whole proposition is summed
up by the Clay Center Republican:
In that state, as in many other dis
puted states, hinged upon the right
of each congressional district TO
choose It's own men. This has been
the Republican plan for fifty years
two delegates chosen from each
congressional district. The national
committee, and the convention voted
to sustain the district representa-
tion- They held (and rightly that
Los Angeles could not dictate what
delegates should be seated from San
francisco; nor could the state prf.
mary instruct the San Francisco Taft
delegates. The only thing q state
primary can do Is instruct the dele
gates-at-large, who belong to no par.
ticular district.
San Francisco district chose two
Taft men to 50 to Chicago. And the
convention voted to give them theiI
seats.
Kansas had only two Taft dele,
gates. Suppose the Is Roosevelt del.
egates had tried to hog the Other
two. and shouted 'thisf" and ''rOb-

SOME ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS.

Among list of great accomplish
ments by the Taft administration,
Senator Root in his great speech,
mentioned the following, "The pros
ecution Of the trusts and combines
in violation Of the Sherman act has
proceeded with extraordinary vigor
and success. The standard oil COM
pany has been dissolved by a suit
begun under Roosevelt and brought
to q successful conclusion under Taft
through judgment in exact accord
ance with the prayer Of the COM
pIainant. The American Tobacco
company has dissolved. The beef
trust, the wholesale grocers. the
lumber dealers, the wire makers,
the window glass pool, the electric
lamp combination, the bath tub trust
the shoe machinery trust, the for
eign steamship people, the sugar
company. the steel corporation, the
Harvester company-all have been
made to feel the heavy hand of the
law through suits or indictments
against restraints and monopolies." "

BARRON BTsULPHIDE KILLS
INSECTS IN WHEAT HIN
AgricuItural College Tells Farmers
70 Get Ready for New Crop.

A few cents worth OF carbon BIZ
SuIphide will kill the insects hiding
In the cracks Of your bins waiting
for the new grain. Right now. be-
fore threshlng begins. Is the time to
clean out and fumigate these store
rooms In the granary. Insects in
furious TO stored grains, says O. A.
Dean, bus specialist at the Kansas
agricultural college. work 30 vigor-
ousIy that the farmer must either
kill them, dispose Of his grain or sit
still and allow them to damage 1t.
Killing these pests before the grain
is stored will prevent much damage
next fall and winter, he says. So
this is word of warning"
Dust. dirt, rubbish, refuse grain,
flour and meal serve as breeding
places for these pests. Fresh grain
should not be exposed to attack by
being placed with the old which al
ready is infested. Throw this out.
Unless the old grain was badly in
tested with any one of the four or
five common injurious insects, 1t may
not be necessary to fumigate now,
but a thorough cleaning of the floor,
walls and ceiling should not be neg
lected. To avoid infestation in the
stack, the grain should be threshed
as soon after harvesting as posi-
BILE. Considerable damage has been
done by these insects to stacked
wheat and oats in Kansas in the
last four or. Ave years.
One pound OF carbon bisulphide.
when the temperature is about 80
degrees, will fumigate 500 cubic feet
OF space. At so degrees. 400 cubic
feet will be thoroughly treated. The
building and bins must be as nearly
air tight as possible while fumigat-
ing. The carbon bisulphide should be
placed in shallow pans at the top OF
the bins or building. Evaporation
is rapid, the vapor settling to the
bottom Of the bin and poisoning the
insects. If the grain is not to be
used for seed, 1t is well to allow
the vapor to remain in it for 4S
hours. Doors and windows should
be opened wide after the fumigation.
and the bins aired thoroughly one
or two hours before entering.
One should be very careful in
handling carbon bisulphide as it is
highly inflamable.> Electric lights
must not be used, since when turning
them on or off there is always dan
ger of producing a spark. 1t is not
safe to have heat of any kind in the
building when the fumigation is in
progress.

Ordinarily, tho credentials COM

his manager Mckinley, that the con-
test cases should be considered in de-
tail before the convention, II the
delegates desired it--so that the
whole country might see for them
selves that there was no ground for
the cry OF fraud. And all the roll
calls taken up until the convention
adjourned Friday night, mad sus-
tanned the president by good major
tiles. And-be 1t remembered-as
each separate contested case was
called, the disputed delegates did not
vote upon their own case, but sat sill

disposed OF the untruthful clamor

THE GAME WE ALL MUST PLAY

f. P. Dunno, writing an editorial
in the July American Magazine based
on the Titanic disaster, says:
"The game We are all playing Is
a losing game at best. Yet we must
play. We cannot get up and leave
the table knowing the dice are cog
ged and the cards marked against
us. We must play on, losing our
principal stake little by little or in
splendid rouleaux, as chance or our
disposition may urge, but knowing
we'll that in the end, soon or late,
whatever remains of 1t will be swept
from the board. Lucky the man who
is tempted to play but the one stake
Happy the man who in death loses
only his life."
