erintenGent who is not the hold
CT OF a regular first grade certi-
flcate, or Il certificate of higher

The questions before the court in
the Hetley case are identical with
those presented in this case. | take
ii that YOU did not know OF the Het-

n Moot Question.
If it was the intention to at this
time and in this way test the cues
tion OF the eligibility of Judge Nc

already have the decision of our SUI

right to question or determine the
right of a political organization to
nominate an ineligible candidate for

attempt to present the question of
the eligibility OF Judge McNulty to
the court at this time would merely
present Il moot question for the
courts consideration. If there is any
other reason for your refusal, the

responsible for the general spread of
hog cholera. was ithe.substanee al the
address on the subject of cholera BY
q. Ernest Wickens, of Avon. He de-
clared that general carelessness by
hos raisers WAS the greatest agent to
communicate the virus of cholera.
In opening his address, Mr.. Wick
ems stated Thai for several wears he
had devoted much time to the habits
of the crow, but that Investigations
and government reports had shown
that the bird was a friend OF the
farmer. The small amount of food
that the bird eats was small comlpar-
ed with the good he did.
To Fight Cholera.
AS the means for stamping out the
disease, Mr.. Wicken's advocated the
following: publicity when the disease
e out on any one farm; tic up
all dogs and shoot all pigeons near
an infected yard; state quarantine OF
all yards OF diseased hogs; educa-
tlon OF hog raisers and cooperation
IN the work of eradication; appoint
ment of a legislative commission to
oNNNSi SlalS HtI hlil DlGlj.
Following Il number by the Gale
theatre orchestra, Sam Jordan. OF
Pettis county, Missouri. was called
upon Tor the final address OF the ey-
ening. Any description of the address
of Mr.. Jordan would be in%adeuuate.
but suffice to say that ii spanked
With the Wit OF the real M~issourian,
with The wisdom of the sound advisor
and the fire OF the Orator. The ova-
ton that greeted Mr.. Jordan at the
close was genuine and lasting.
In the serious portions of his ad-
dress. Mr.. Jordan outlined the gen
eral duties of the farm advisor. The
position he declared to be keeping
with the spirit of the age, as every
man OF every profession, from the
president of the United States down,
surrounds himself with advisors. He
related much OF his own work to
show the need of farm advisers.
Agricultural Credits.
Mr.. Jordan also went into DEATH
on the working of Il system of agri-
cultural credits, which he believed
to be superior to the system in the
ISN SilNS blll. 10y llS means, Ilc
young farmer would be given credit.
if he was honest, sober and indus
trious. Mr.. Jordan declared that the
borrowers would pay a 6 per cent
rate, the banker would make 4 per
cent and the depositor would make .
per cent.
With regard TO cholera, MIR. Jordan
discussed the law written by himself
and enacted into law in Missouri, by
which every man is required to re
port the existence of hog cholera on
his neighbours farm, without reveal
ing his own identity. The speaker was
emphatic in the belief that careful
policing and quarantining would be
as effective in eradicating cholera as
the use OF serum.
When the applause had died down,
III. b. DAVIS, of Fulton, presented a
bouquet of roses to Mr.. Jordan with
the following words: "On behalf OF
your South Dakota friends and as ID
token OF our esteem and appreciation
of your efficient instruction, ! present
these South Dakota grown American
beauty roses. Their beauty is only eX-
ceeded by IL admiration of the dis
tinguished son of Missouri who has
successfully eXemplitied our motto of
Forward to the Farm {" Mr.. Jordan
made a short speech of thanks for
the bouquet. .7a
