the request of Professor Ludwig

it most advisable.

HISTORY OF: 1912
/ IN UNITED STATES
Chief Events In Politics. Dis
/ asters, Obituary, Sports.
By JAMES A. EDCERTON,

ERE is another year to be re-
u viewed. They are going by
with ever increasing frequen-
cy, like stations seen from an
express train. Why is it that Father
Time seems to sprint faster the older
we get? He should be arrested for
Overspeeding.
The chief events of 1912 in the good
old u. s. A." were the presidential
campaign, the attempted assassination
of Theodore Roosevelt and the Titanic
disaster. While in technical sense
the sinking Of the Titanic was more Of
foreign than domestic happening,
who lost their lives in the wreck that
we should have the melancholy priv
lege Of claiming it as our own.
The unusual features of the fight for
the presidency were the first trial on
an extensive scale of the preferential
primary, the Roosevelt candidacy, the
nerce preconvention campaign in which
for the first time in our history presi-
dent of the United States was driven
to take the stump in his own defense,
the splitting of the Republican party
and the organization Of the Progress
sive party, the long and fierce fight in
the Democratic convention ending in
the nomination of Governor Woodrow
Wilson of New Jersey, the death Of
Vice President Sherman and the great
plurality given Wilson at the polls.
1t was some time after the announce
ment of Colonel Roosevelt that my
hat, is In the ring" ere the tide began
to show in his favor. He had pre-
viously said that he would not again
be candidate, and the denomination
Of President Taft was taken as a mat
ter of course. States having the old
convention system still continued for
Taft, but most Of the primary states
began swinging into line for Roosevelt,
illinois and Pennsylvania going with
rush that made the politicians gasp.
Taft Wins and Loses.
Roosevelt was on the stump through
but this struggle, and Mr.. Taft now
followed him. The two campaigned
Massachusetts, Maryland and Ohio.
Massachusetts and Maryland were
close, Taft carrying one and Roosevelt
the other, but Ohio gave large plural
Ity to the colonel.
The Republican convention was pre-
coded by an acrimonious struggle in
the national committee over contested
seats. Roosevelt and his friends
charged fraud and theft. and the for.
mer president went to Chicago in per-
son. In the convention Taft and Sher-
man were renominated by slim ma
jority, while the colonels followers re-
fused to vote Later they organized
the Progressive party and held a ma
tional convention in Chicago, which
nominated Colonel Roosevelt for pres
ident and Governor Hiram w. John
son of California for vice president.
This launching Of the long expected
new party alone makes 1912 historic.
The fight in the Democratic conYen-
ton was almost as fierce. Champ Clark
led at the start, gaining for ten ballots
an actual maj ority, but acking the

IN f. FOREIGN R /! !' "
Balkan War, Olympic Games and
Other Happenings.
BY JAMES A, EDCERTON.

~ o<1A'AAS <As ADoAN 1 oAVs
THE chief events of 1912 abroad
were the Balkan war, the per-
manent establishment of the
Chinese republic, the an
nouncement of. the discovery Of the
south pole. the death OF the mikado Of
Japan, the snuffing out of uprisings in
Mexico, Cuba and Nicaragua, the as
sassination of Premier Canalejas Of
Spain, the Olympic games at Stock
holm and the home rule fight in the
British parliament.
1t certainly was a disastrous year for
Turkey. In closing the war with Italy
she was forced to give up Tripoli, the
last of her African provinces. She
had an earthquake that destroyed 5000
lives, a cholera epidemic, near revo-
luton and Il war with the Balkau E::::,'ss
that has cost. her nearly all OF her
provinces in Europe. She has had
nearly everything the matter with her
except mumps and hOusemaid's knee.
Her harems have fed to Asia Minor,
and her soldiers have fed wherever
the fleeing was good. She declared war
on Oct. II and only regained conscious
ness in time to talk peace with her
conquerors.
Shortest War ON Record. 49,
In Europe it is known as the thirty
days." war, the shortest on record.
Every one of the allies won impor-
tant victories, and won them in such
rapid succession that the world looked
on amazed. The reputation of the
Turkish army crumbled overnight.
The first clash occurred on Oct. 4, and
four days later little Montenegro de-
clared war, capturing Detchitch noun
tain and investing Scutari. The Bull
garians smashed the Turks in dis
astrous defeat at Kirk Kilise, be-
sieged Adrianople and invested the
last line of Turkish defense before
Constantinople. The Servian army
drove all before it and participated in
the capture of Monastir and other
strongholds. The Greeks won success.
sion of victories and took the historic
city of Saloniki. It was at about this
time that Turkey recovered conscious
ness and asked for an armistice. The
meeting for peace negotiations was
held in London ss. d. 5..s..5S
The insistence of Servia on an :Adri-
attic port as result of her victories
aroused opposition in Austria, and for
a-time there was widespread fear Of
general European war, which had
not entirely disappeared at the end Of
the year. ..s.sz} d.
The work Of the Chinese revolution
which started last year was largely
completed, and the republic is today a
fixed fact. DR.. Sun Vat: Sen was In
augurated as provisional president on
Jan. l, but unselfshly resigned in IA

put down, and the financial problem
was temporarily solved BY ind dependent

craftsmanship had written much OF
the platform and forced through reso-
lutions attacking the reactionary ele-
nlent, here threw his influence against
Clark. Wilson had been steadily forg-
ing to the front and was nominated on
the forty-severth ballot.
The actual campaign was milder
than had been the fight for the nomi-
nation, and the vote was surprisingly
light. Wilson carried the election by
more than 100000 plurality in the
popular vote and by about $40 majori-

VALUE OF PEANUTS IN RAISING HOGS

Every thrifty farmer in Ark
ansas should plant few acres of
peanuts t h i s year. Nothing is
better for the pigs..and hogs than
peanuts. Plant the small Span
ish peanuts. Prepare the land
well and make the rows not more
than thirty inches apart. The
seed may be planted with plant
err. and should be about twelve
inches apart in the drill. If the
land is not too strong, they may
be planted thicker.
Two or three times will be suffi-
Gent to cultivate. Run between
the rows with cultivator or
double shovel, and when t h e
plants are large enough, it will
be all right to let the dirt from
the cultivator cover the runners
or branches an inch or two. if the
soil is loose and not wet. Wet
soil is damaging. Keep the weeds
and grass out, especially while
plants are young. In August,
the pigs may be allowed to run in
the patch to some extent without
doing more damage than will be
off set by their gain in flesh and
growth. When the peanuts are
ready to gather. the vines may
be pulled and thrashed, or the
nuts picked by hand. The vines
make fine hay; .and all kinds OF
stock like it. Another good way
is to turn the hogs in and let
them eat vines, nuts and all,
this saves the cost of harvesting.
Nothing is better for hogs, and
it gives a fine flavor to the meat.
The peanuts should be planted
about the middle of May. 1t
will require abaut l IL bushels
TO the acre, and with a planter,
eight acres a day can be planted.
