The delegates followed without
question all advice given by their
leaders,.
Chances Are for Delay.
The radicals knew they were in con-
troll and that's lowly they were ap-
preaching a point where their will
would be done. 1t may be that a
nomination will be made tonight, but
the chances favor postponement of
definite action till tomorrow.

lican convention program will have
been shaped so the progressive can
be known whether it is to be peace or

Despite the realization by the dele
gates that important business con-
fronted it, when they assembled at
3 o'clock after the recess they were

sentiment at other sessions.
Delegations fraterhized on the
floor, while American flags were
waved by men and women standing
on orchestra chairs and in boxes. The
band and professional singers helped
out when there was any show of rest
lessness.
There was little turbulence, the
crowd was orderly and friendly and

ETERNAL ENEMIES OF WEEDS
Sheep Clear Up Waste Vegetation and
Turn II Into Mutton-AIso De-
stroy Many Insects.

Sheep are the sworn enemies OF
weeds. They clear up waste vegeta.

BY eating down and trampling the
weeds on the fields and along the
fences, they destroy many insects
which harbor in the weeds.
II the sheep merely pay for the ex-

Some people actually believe that
sheep can live without water. No such
thing. 1t is true that sheep in certain
seasons can live for days without be-

should always be turned out to pas
ture early in the morning for this
reason, but besides, they should al.
ways have plenty Of clean water. They
will not thrive without 1t.
