FREE POULTRY

The County Fair held in Palatka
last December demonstrated the fact
that this section is adapted TO the
poultry industry. 1t is a good plan to
know as much about ones business
as possible There are many excel
lent books in print on the subject of
poultry. Now and then you will run
across some one who has a poor opin-
ion of book farming" In this con-
neetion let us quote paragraph from
an address by President Hadley OF
Yale University:
MANY man will tell You that the
things you learn from books are less
valuable than the things you find
out for yourself, II he simply
means that the facts YOU have
learned from books are less valua-
bic than the facts you have learn
ed from experience, he is probably
right, But if ne means the power
you get by kaowing how 10 use
books is less than the power that
you get p" finding things out for
yourself, he is wrong, The man
who finds things out for himself
has simply the results of his own
experience at command. The man
who can find them out from books
has access to the accumulated ex-
perlence of the whole world, and
can choose therefrom what best
serves his purpose,
Some sense TO that, is there not

The Senatorial Contests For lsl4-

Pensacola journal: McGregor, po-
htical writer in Harper'S Weekly, has
long illustrated article in that mag
azine ON THE Senate of 1915"
He discusses the fact that thirty
two senators must 60 out on March
4, 1915, or he reelected in 1914, Of
this number, Is are Democrats and IL
are Republicans,
| The case of each senator is discuss
/ &c and his prospects Of reelection are
analysed Concerning Senator Fletch-
er of Florida, Harper'S writer says:
/ "ln Florida, Senator Fletcher with
his votes for Lorimer and lumber as
we'll as his former connection with the

Tallahassee, is opposed for re-nomina-
ton by Stockton of Jacksonville,
Stockton is known as the original and
most persistent progressive in the
Florida Democracy, and the prohibl,
ton issue ought to help him also, But
he has had bad luck in submitting
his claims for office TO the electorate,
GilchriSt having defeated him for
governor and Bryan for senator, 1t
hooks like the return OF Fletcher, who
just now is as progressive as can be.
This may be a long-distance view
of the situation in Florida, but it may
not prove to be the correct view,
Ii is true that John Stockton has
made several unsuccessful races for
office, but it is also true that the \
Democrats of Florida are progressive
and they are not now in mood to
REL elect man who became conSpieu-
Gus through his defense of Lorimer
and his eulogy of Bailey.
Senator Fletcher may appear to be |

writer asserts, but the progressive |
Democrats OF Florida want a man |
who was progressive before, as well |
as after, it became fashionable, and |
who can be depended upon to stay 4
in the event that his in 4
Huence and services are required for .
future contests between progressive /
and reactionary men and measures.

Florida to take steps to "try out" the

be advertised for and if the right man

But 1t goes without saying that it

The theory itself is essentially

Farmers and stockmen are busy put
ting up the first crop of Russian
Thistles out on the uplands. There is
an abundance of them this year, in the
abandoned fields.
The Russian Thistle is cut and stack
ed while in the bloom, same as alfal-
ia. The principal thing to avoid is
the maturing of the hard spines which
constitute the chief objection to the
thistle. In stacking the hay, many
farmers sprinkle little salt in with
it.
1t has been said that bale of well
cured thistle hay has as much nutri-
ton in it and is as highly relished by
cattle as bale of alfalfa hay.-Ham-
