days of the campaign. William A.

strong against Predergast anr Nc
Aneny, demanding that they withdraw
if the fusion ticket expected to carry
the endorsement Of the league. Mitch

put a ticket in the field with Mitchell
at the head. The league put up it's
own candidates, however, in place of
Predergast and McAneny.

Sensational Campaign.

NEW YORK, Nov. 3.-After one OF
The most sensational campaigns in the
history of the city the voters of New

IN an election In which party lines

choice is for or against the domination
of the city by Tammany hall.

ried the campaign through with unre

sixth assembly district unanimously
nominated Sulzer for the assembly
and with John A. Hennessy state in

deposed governor has fired charge

Charles Francis Murphy.
Tammany never met with a greater
surprise in its existence than the sight
Iof Sulzer, an impeached supposedly
idiscredited, and deposed governor sud
denly rising as the big factor in the
local campaign. Many Tammany lead
Iers complained that the chief was
too easy when the way was left
open for Sulzer to again hold office.
The court did not disquallry him. He
Immediately told the story of how
Murphy had made demands for certain
appointments on him; how he pressed
him to the limit on all questions which
Murphy desired settled In his own

The "Gaffney or war" message was
followed by other demands, according
to Sulzer. and he was told he must
iaccede to these demands or face ruin.
Mrs. Sulzer added to the story with
statements that she had received
scores OF letters threatening her hus-

her that Sulzer must do as Murphy

(By Congressman Clyde y, Tavenner)
Washington, d. c., June 25.-"Boys,
grow corn" is now established as
slogan of the department of agricul-
ture. The sentence has taken the
place of Horace Greeley's famous ad-
vice-"Young man. 60 vest"
In the past five or six years the
department of agriculture has shown
by demonstration that for young men
there is greater opportunity in pro-
ducing the gold of the corn crop than
there ever was in gathering the gold
from the placer mines of California.
For no 10-year period has the corn
yield of the United States exceeded
an average of % bushels per acre
Not even the most fertile state has
ever produced over "a bushels per
acre. Yet in practically every section
of the country yields of over 100
bushels are continually being pro-
duced by good farmers.

There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that Is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inflamed condition of the mucous
lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is inflamed you have rum
billing sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed, Deaf
ness is the result, and unless the in
flammation can be taken out and this
tube restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused by
Catarrh, which is nothing but an in

AGR|CULT TURE...A FEDERAL DE.
PARTMENT DOING THINGS

! the United States can be easily doub-
! led by the spread of good farming
methods. Or, if such a yield is be-
| yond our needs, the acreage devoted
to corn can be greatly reduced and
the land devoted to other needed
! crops.
There are untold billions of dollars
which can be added to the wealth
of the nation by increasing the corn
production. No other line of activity
offers such opportunities.
The hope Of the department and
of the country is in the boys. They,
more quickly than men, grasp the
scientific principles underlying the
successful breeding of corn for great
er crops. Youthful enthusiasm guar
antees that the principles, once
learned, will be applied to actual corn
production with consceht BUSINESS and
perseverance.
Consequently we see the great and
growing organizations of boys corn
clubs, promoted by schools. states.
Independent organizations and the ma
tional department of agriculture.
Each year the champion boy corn
growers of each state are given free
trip to Washington, where they meet
the president and receive diplomas
from the secretary of agriculture.
The work of getting boys interested
in championship corn contests has
advanced to a point where the depart.
ment is now showing its hand-how
it intends to utilize this organization
of boys in the future. A bulletin has
just been issued on the subject, and
one sentence in the bulletin might
have been written in this form:
WANTED: A boy in every corn
growing county of the United States,
who can prove his ability as a farm
er by several years Of superior work
in the corn contests, to act for the
rest of his life as the official seed
grower and distributor in his county
for the government. Pleasant and
profitable work. For further infor-
nation apply to office of Corn In
vestigations, Department of Agricul-
ture, Washington, D C.
In other words, it is the intention
of the department to effect a perma-
nent organization of boy champion
corn growers One in each county is
desired. By improving seed and fur
nishing it to the farmers of his coun-
ty he will help toward the general
plan for doubling the American corn
crop.
The name of the new bulletin is:
How to Grow an Acre of Corn" 1t is

short, pithy paragraphs, each giving a
suggestion on how to improve corn

bors for seed for 80 or SO a bushel. !

The first gin ners report of the season by the cen sus bureau showing 794,006 bales gin ned up to September i. the largest on record to that date, had no bearish effect on the market.
