KLECTRICITY AND RADIUM
IN MODERN AGRICULTURED

Mr.. T. Thorne Butler recently gave
an interesting lecture before the Brit
ish Royal Society of Arts on electric
ty and radium in agriculture. He said
that a great deal of experiment work
was going on now with radioactive
material, which gave in some cases
such remarkable results that radiuli
must be taken into serious considera-
tion from an agricultural point OF
view. The residues resulting from
radium extraction, which contained
only milIigram or two of radium TO
tn. ton. and were at present regarded
as of negligible value, were sufficient
" active to produce marked effects on
termination and greatly to increase
the size of the plants and crops. In
some cases an increase of 300 and 400
pe~ cent. had been obtained. Tha
stimulating effects of a new type OF
combined high frequency and positive
e,ectricity appa1 atas on young chick
ens was also described. Not only was

COL ROOSEVELT TURNS
ATTENTION TO POLITICS.

Oyster yaB, May 20.-On the first day
after his return from South America.
Theodore Roosevelt got back into
touch with the political situation and
tonight plans were well under way for
the progressive campaign of 1914,
Colonel Roosevelt spent large part OF
the day in conference with George w.
Perkins, chairman OF the executive
committee of the progressive national
committee. Mr.. Perkins has been at
work since the 1912 campaign, organiz-
ing the new party throughout the
country and his mission to Oyster Bay
was to acquaint the former president
with present day conditions in the
political field. Colonel Roosevelt
would not discuss his long talk with
Mr.. Perkins. He said he was not talk
ing politics.
Clifford Pinchot, progressive candi-
date for United States senator from
Pennsylvania, also conferred with
Colonel Roosevelt. He reached Saga
more Hill late today and spent the
night there.
Colonel Roosevelt's activities today
removed all doubt whether he would
take an active part in this years cam
paign. 1t is known that he expects
to make one of the most arduous
fights of his career. No definite plarf
have been formed, but it is probable
that in support of the progressiyes he
will make a trip across the country,
speaking in almost every state.
On May 80, Colonel Roosevelt will
leave for Europe to attend the we'd
ding of his son Kermit. During the
meantime he will attempt to set in mo-
=tion the political wheels.
One day Of quietude and OF the brac-
ing air of Sagamore Hill, brought
great changes in the coIonel's man
aer and appearance. Tonight he was
full of vigor and walked with a full.
free swing.

Guess the Carolina Democrat read
ers think I have forgotten my one
pleasure but I certainly haven't by
any means. Have been very busy
lately at one thing and another, with
some political interests to look after
that has kept me hustling lots of my
spare time.
It's a great pleasure. to me to write
for nice little, paper as it is. I had
the pleasure of getting new subserib-
ers the past contest they had and it
wasn't any trouble at all to get SUBJ
scribers when you struck people who
wanted good newsy paper cheap. 1
thank the subscribers and all for the
beautiful suit of furniture 1 won in
the contest with so little work,
trouble, etc.
With this beautiful weather we are
getting lots of tourists. Mrs. VIM.
Roxby is here now from Florida re-
newing her camp, where she had
thirty campfire girls last summer
and expects at least fifty this season.
We were glad to have with us a party

where they are spending few weeks;
came to see our beautiful country,
from the city of Chicago.
Mr.. M. L. Edney is getting his
house along near completion; expects
to have it in order for the summer
business.
Our road is SO good we must say
something about it. 1t is most COM

organizations long has been sought
by the various church bodies, action
looking to such Federation probably
will not be taken by the General As
sembly of the Presbyterian Church in
the United States (southern) in ses-
sion here, commissioners said today.
A number of Communications
against amalgamation were read and
referred to a committee on oVertures
for unity. The committee is expected
to report early next week Most of
the leading commissioners believe a
middle ground will be taken-one that.
will not antagonize rigidly orthodox
members.
An overture from the Presbyterian
Church of the United States of Ameri-
CO was read before the assembly to-
day. This contained a plea to unite
all Presbyterian bodies in Federated
union under the direction of Presby :.
terian Congress to be patterned after
the National Congress.
Ask Union of all Church Bodies.
Another overture from the Presby-
terry of Knoxville, Tenn, proposed q
union of all the Church bodies, divid-
ed into four districts, northeast, south
east, northwest and southwest. An.
rual meetings of the governing or
ganizations in each district we're pro-
posed with meeting of a general
council of all the districts every four
years.
The Woman's Council of the Church
today considered a suggestion that do
nations be made directly to the
Church and not to the women's aux
iliary ais has been the custom. Nc
definite decision was reached.
More than 1000 young ministers are
needed by the Church, it was asserted
today in the report of Christian edil-
cation and ministerial relief The
vdearth Of pulpit men is question InaE
is worrying most of the churches, it
was said, and the expansion of the
Presbyterian Church in the South has
given that organization serious
problem in the matter of supplying
ministers.
The report was read by the Rev. H.
H. Sweets of Louisville, who said that
in the last ten years the Church had
gained $50 ministers, but also had
gained 335 new churches.
%At the beginning of 1914,'' he saie
"there were 735 churches without pas
tors and there are now 275 places
where there are opportunities to or
ganize new churches. In all 1,010
new preachers are needed"

The stalk or bunch, which is now in

Mr.. Perkins says sand vetch for feed
is second to alfalfa and he is going to
