.GEN. SANFORD'S DEATHABL0W>
| followers Of THE THOROUGHBRED
Nestor Of the Turf Was the Largest Breeder Of Speeers in
New York and Raced His Horse. for the Sport Of
the Game, and Not for Financial GAIN

New York, Fe6 22-Slowly but surely
the pillars of the turf. the men who have
been its props, are dying. A few weeks
ago James r. Keene died. Now Gen.
Stephen Sanford, called the '.Nestor of
the turf has gone to that bourne from
which no man returneth. He died on
Thursday night at his home in Amster-
dam. n. Y. He was eighty-seven years
of age. For fifty years he was a breeder
OF high class horses and one of the
stanchest supporters the turf has ever
had. His son. John Sanford is a MEN,
Der of the State Racing Commission The
generals death was a severe blow to
all lovers of the thoroughbred.
Gen. Sanford was human live wire" +"
He was energy personihed. He was a
worker from the time he reached youths
estate until a short period before his
death. He served his country during the
civil war was elected to Congress in
1855, and declined a denomination.
In 1854 he entered the carpet business
with his father. The factory was q
small one, but under the energetic man.
agement of Stephen Sanford it soon
grew to great proportions. until to-day
its buildings occupy q big area and is
one Of the leading firms Of its kind in
the United States. Although Mr.. San
ford added many buildings to the plant
during the recent years, he retained the
original factory. This was one of his
characteristics. He was progressive and
believed in the up-to-date, twentieth
century business methods, but he also
had a sentimental affection for the old
order of things.
Always Courteous.
Sen. Sanford was the backbone Of the
business life OF Amsterdam. In q broad
sense he was Amsterdam itself-its life
and existence. In addition to his carpet
business he was banker and was
financially interested in many other en-
terprises But despite his diversified in
terests, he was always courteous, affable
and considerate of every man, woman
and child with whom he: came in contact.
He was a gentleman in all that the term
implies. He knew nearly every person
in the village by name. He always had
a kindly greeting for his employees and
took q great interest in them. The wom-
en- and men who worked for him he
called by their given names II was
a common thing for him to stop the
women on the streets by calling them
Mary, Jane, or Susan. as the case may
be. and ask them how the world wagged
with them. E'
It is as turfman and a breeder that
he was best known. When he died he
was the owner OF the Hurricane Stud
Farm, the largest and best appointed
farm devoted to the breeding Of fine
horses in this State. In point Of i'm

Why We Tell 1t

Tire worth, very largely, depends
on the money which goes into
work and materials.
Tires could be made at half our
cost which would look as well as
Goodyears. The material cost de-
pends entirely on the makers
standard. So does your cost per
mile.
So we tell you our profit as the
best way to show you the value
you get in a Goodyear.

TO SUPPRESS
OPIUM EXPORTS
MISSIONARIES TO THE ORIENT
HAVE ISSUED STATEMENTS
THAT THERE Is TO BE Less
SHIPMENTS TO THIS COUNTRY.

Hankow, China, Jan. s.-Statements
have been received from seventy-ffve
missionaries in the twelve provinces re-
garding opium suppression.
The general trend of the evidence Is,
according to the Central China Post, that
the new regime, where It is well eetab-
lished, Is more thorough than in the old
four provinces, and that the death pen
atty has been inflicted in several instan-
ces of offenses against the opium laws,
Szechuan, Honan, Anl1wei and ChelSi-
ang are using troops freely to prevent
poppy cultivation. Kweichow province,
which has been unsettled since the rev.
olution. is given up to opium growing
rnainder of the reports are generally fav-
oralole; all agreeing that the present Of
ffcials desire the suppression OF opium
growing.
Some poppy sown this winter will be
found in me hill country and borderlands
where the rule is lax, but it is doubtful
that the crop will be allowed to come to
harvest. Anyway it will be inf1nitesimal
compared with the years before the sup
preston began.
All the reports agree that Human prov
ince, which was recently cited as an in
stance of relapse, is virtually clear OF
opium crops and that the suppression OF
the sale and smoking of opium is severer
forced in many parts, and tits noticeable
that Ichang, which formerly had an enor-
nous opium export. now exports none.
The price of opium is at present far
higher than formerly in all parts OF
China. In some places the increase in
price ia twenty-fold. indicating the
strength of the suppression movement.

Compulsory education began in Germany

this study places Washington first

Of publishing this study at the present

to place IN the hands of state legislators

FINDS DEFECTS
IN PARCELS POST

New York, Jan. 5.-ATthough the or
fetal report of the initial success OF
the. paresl system at New York is not
to 40 until after few weeks
trial, m Saree days Postmaster Morgan
found some defects which he believes
will have TO be remedied to make the
new service a success in the metrop-
oils. He declared today he believed
the parcel post law was defective in
that it did not permit small packages
to be dropped into street boxes, instead
Of requiring that they be mailed at
one Of the designated post office sta
tons. Even yeast cake, if sent. at
parcel post rate, now must be carried
to q post Office.
Mr.. Morgan, although, thought that
in time the government would see fit
to collect parcels, as the express COM
panies do. More than 500 persons
made the mistake yesterday of mailing
packages "by parcel post" without
placing a distinctive parcel post stamp
thereon.

TALK ABOUT

Whatever you please, but we
have put the hardware and fertili-
yer to the farmers of Jackson and
surrounding counties, up to now.
We've got two more car loads of
fertilizer on the road with the bla-.
Yin nozzle of rush tracer behind
them.
We filled the biggest warehouse
in the county chuck full of the sa-
worry stuff-fertilizer-and thought
we had enough to furnish every
wise farmer in our territory but it
melted away each day like a cream
tart before the holiday APPETITE of
school boy, as Washington Irving
would have said.
But as said we have two (2)
car loads coming as fast as railway
service can bring it.
Already we've sold twice as
much fertilizer as in any other
given season But enough about
