FARMERS WARNED
AGAINST BAD SEED

The United States is the dump
ing ground for all the bad seed Of
the world. Furthermore those
states which do not have pure
seed laws are the bulls eye for
all INSCRIPTIONS importers and
seedsmen. Those states receive
not only the bad seeds OF other
states but those which are i'm
ported and cannot be sold in
states which have pure seed laws.
Many noXious weeds are import
ed in that way and many seeds OF
poor germinability are bought
and the farmer does not know the
difference.
Every farmer in Florida and
in the United States should urge
his congressman to vote for a bill
which will prevent the impor-
tation of impure or poor seed and
which will prevent the transpor-
tation of such seed from one
state to another.
The following warning has
been sent out recently by the
United States Department OF
Agriculture:
l Heavy importations of Grim

ton have caused the United

THE AMERICAN CRIME

A lot of people in the north seem
to think that Georgia begins Just on
the other side of the Ohio River.
They are denouncing the lynching
of Leo Frank as a crime for which
all the south is responsible. They
are talking as if the inhabitants OF
New Orleans, Memphis, Charleston,
Richmond and Louisville all had a
hand upon the rope, were now hid
ing from the law, and were sending
out defenses and defiances from
shelter beneath their beds.
These folk need little instruction
in geography and some reminder of
the common facts about lynchinS.
The south is a very large section an j

A NoMAN's CAMPAIGN

Public opinion was not enthusiast
tically in favor of Raphael when he
came to live In East Kemp. Raphael
was an Armenian, and his color was
that of the lining Of ham sandwich.
OF course his nationality was not so
much against him as the fact that he
had foreign ways.
He had peddled cheap jewelry in the
district for several years when he sur
prised everybody by buying the Drew
cottage and establishing himself there
with his wife and son. q lanky, ham
colored lad Of thirteen. Apparently
he had amassed all the money he
needed in the peddling line. for he set
to work to raise poultry and vege-
tables, which he sold to Hiram Smith.

not a southern crime. 1t is an
American crime. The Ohioan who
sneers at the south has first to for
set the Cincinnati and the Spring

vania had a shameful exhibition Of
lynch law. A town in Kansas. which
takes pride in having served as a
depot for runaway slaves, some year :
