NOTHING WRONG IN BUSINESS.
Ills Discussion With Henry Ford
Cheers President Wilson.

Washington, July 9.-Optimistic
views of business conditions were
presented to President Wilson to-day
by Henry Ford, the Detroit manu-
tacturer, durine IN hours conference
at the White House. vi. h, I'd told
the President he saw no .~:idences
Of IN sort of business depression,
psychological or otherwise, and said
that, in his opinion, business was get
ting better all the time.
There is absolutely nothing
wrong with business" Mr.. Ford told
the President. '"The only trouble is
that some people seem pessimistic.
If every one would only cheer up and
attend to their business, this calam-
ity talk would stop immediately"
The President and Mr.. Ford dis
cussed the trust bills in a general
way as we'll as the business situa-
ton. officials close to the Presi6lnt
said he was greatly encouraged by
his talk with Mr.. Ford, and that he
had beer further strengthened in his
determination to push the trust pro-
gram during the present session OF
Congress.
Mr.. Ford refused to discuss his
call, saying that ak of business de-
preston was unworthy of denial.
President Wilson said he wished
to e big business half way in con-
sideration of the trust program and
wanted to be fair in every way.

NEW SYSTEM COTTON PLANTING
The Object is TO Get More Cotton in
Il Shorter Period.
Columbia Record


A new system Of cotton planting
is now being tried and advocated
which IS said to give promise Of a
volution in this industry. n. l..
"illet, Of Augusta, an authority on
ME- subject, writes of the results so
far Of the experiment, which show
increases in crop ST, 29, So, 35 and
2G per cent as compared to the old
method. These results entitle the
new plan to careful study and Mr..
Willet's article on the subject is ex-
ceedingly interesting, in the opinion
of the Savannah Press.
The end to be obtained in the
work, says Mr.. Willet, is to get more
cotton and in a shorter period, and
is especially adapted to boil weevil
lands n high ATTITUDES. The dou-
bic principle in short, is to thin out
plants late, and leave them close to-
gcther in the row. All individual
plants Of cotton, given room, put out
luXuriant foliage and much "vegeta-
tive" or wood branches" Their
.'fruiting branches" get to their
work or their Setting" late-and
the crop is late and short. The new
idea discards the individual plant
theory, and adopts the row" as the
unit. The row looks like a hedge
row."
The process eliminates the "vege-
tativc" branches by preventing their
formation. The thick, growing,
shaded plants are kept from expos
ure - light until they grow up to a
height higher than the point at
which vegetative limbs put out. Cool
weather II dry weather themselves
always tend to prevent excess of
wood branches" These vegetative
limbs require much space in the row
and between rows. The new method
decreases both Of these spacings,
and increases largely per acre the
number Of the plants.
Since plants six inches in the row
Will put u vcgetative limbs the new
principle avoids this trouble by
thinning out to two or three inches
in the row when the plants are eight
or ten inches high; and then when
the plants are twelve to fifteen inches
high they are thinned to six, eight
and ten inches.
In o cases there is, however,
only one thinning. When the plants
get eight to ten inches high they
are thinned to eight and often six
inches in the row.
The whole principle in this meth
cd is to "control the branches"-in
which process we get fruiting
branches and not vegetative
branches; we get early crops and
an abundant crop, and "n get a
hedge row formation and not indi-
vidual plant development. This
hedge row formation and this
punching the plants close together
protect, too, the plants from cold
weather. winds. and tends. too, to
prevent weeds.
Mr.. Willett believes that in mo-
ther season tens of thousands OF ey-
periments with this principle will be
carried on, and in a few years we
will see an absolute WORKING process

BECKHAM, SURE WINNER

The article being published in

lucky under the scare headline s
Woodrow Wilson Condemns
Beckhamfs Methods" shows to
what extremity the anti-Beck-
ham forces in Kentucky have
come. They are trying to make
it appear that President Wilson
has issued a special statement
with regard to Mr.. Beckham's
attitude on the liquor question.
Mr.. Bcckham has at no time de-
clared for national prohibition.
His work for temperance has
been done along the lines of local
option, and in this he has done
more for the cause than any 9th
er man. We are surprised that
any newspaper claiming to be
Democratic will open its columns S,
even for pay, to any Islander both
upon the President and upon the
friends of Mr.. Beckham. Mr..
Beckham was working earnestly
for Mr.. Wilson in an effort to
carry Kentucky for him when the
Kentucky Congressional Trust
at Washington was doing all in
it's power to defeat him.
We do not know who inscribed
the article or who is paying for
its publication, but it is about the
dirtiest piece of dirty politics we
ever heard of. And there have
been some pretty rotten politics
in Kentucky in times past.
Mr.. Beckham will win the
nomination in August and will
be triumphantly elected in No
vember, and the politicians who
are now trying so hard to defeat
him had as we'll wake up to the
fact.-Bluegrass Clipper.
