Special Appeal to Each and
Every Voter of Delta County

tifiable self-interest. regardless of
l bespeak for him able, efficient and
faithful service in return. Rather
than aid an outsider, is it not infin-
itely better, kinder and wiser to en-
courage and uphold our own citizen
in his laudable ambitions and aspira-
tions for our mutual good? To this
all may well agree. Should not our
action, therefore. accord with our ad
mission by giving him cordial sup
port? Think well and seriously upon
these things and do honor to our fell
low citizen on election day. 1t can
bring no regrets. No evil results will
ensue. Good fellowship and generous
spirit will be strengthened. Our in
terests will be entrusted to friendly
hands. The advancement of his in
terests in the valley will be the safe
guarding and promotion of our own.
There can be no question about it.
Were it otherwise, as one of your
common good, l should not urge it
upon you. l am not moved by per-
sonal interest. but only by that gen
eral concern which l feel in public
matters, and that special regard which
l believe all good citizens should en-
tertain for their fellow citizens at
home
In this spirit l most earnestly So
licit your support for him in the splen-
did campaign he is making, and wheth-
er he is elected or defeated, yours will
be the gratitude of himself and friends
and the satisfaction which follows
kindly deeds. 1t is the way of the
world and the part of wisdom and
fairness to stand by our own. l ap-
peal to the voters not to make Delta
county an exception to this wholesome
rule The cordial and active support
of its home candidate for Congress
is the better way.

DECLINED TO PERMIT 4
SQUADRON TO DEFEND
AMERICANS.

At Tampico there was gen
eral movement of attack by the
Mexicans on Americans and
other foreigners. We had a
squadron of American warships
in the neiehborhood. The Will
son Administration declined to
permit this squadron to be used
to defenc the lives of American
men and ,he honor of American
women. and the commanders of
the German and English ships
at Tampico had TO step in and
perform the task our represen-
tative had so basely abandoned.
At the very time that the MeNi-
can mob had surrounded the
building in which the Americans
had taken refuge, and was howl
ing for thsir blood, the Ameri-

tests of the American naval

FAMOUS IN BIBLICAL TIMES

Hamadan, in Persia, figures in Bib
lical as well as early Grecian history.
1t was the ancient Ecbatane. the treas

Alexander the Great, and it appears in
the Book of Esther as Shushan, where
Ahasuerus, who .reigned from India

caprices of Vashti and was induced to
relent by the attraction of Esther.
At Hamadan pious Jews still point
out the tombs of Mordecai and Esther,
which stand in a wooden-domed builo-
ing in the center of the town There
is no doubt that the two wooden sar-
cophagi shown there are ancient, but
there is considerable question of their

be of A. D. 557 and the other s41 a

States Alfalfa Ranks tiIah.

While Kansas and other western
states have wonderful alfalfa farms
it was demonstrated before the
annual meeting of Farmer Bankers
association here that there are some
in Wisconsin that rank among the fin
est. TIE demonstration was made by
means Of motion pictures In which
every phase of the industry was por-
trayed
One farm owned by the Schwartz
brothers in Waukesha county was
shown with nearly 200 acres of al.
falfa, with six mowers encircling the
mammoth fields and with all sorts of
labor-saving machinery scarcely known
to the average farmer Of WISCONSIN,.
THE farmer in northern Wisconsin
does not need alfalfa as badly as the
farmer in southern Wisconsin" said
Prof. L. r. GRADER. alfalfa expert of the
university. The farmer in the upper
state has the advantage of very rank
growth of clover which Offsets in a
large measure the need of alfalfa.
There are some difficulties with al
falfa. 1t must be taken care of dur
ing the summer just at the time when
other crops are pressing for attention.
| There are also other handicaps, but
| the fact remains that there IS no crop
on the Wisconsin farm with such q
high digestible food value as alfalfa
II is the crop which restores the most
| fertility to the soil II is the heaviest
yielding crop. exceeding silage and
timothy greatly"
j. r. Wheeler. discussing herd rec

In Wisconsin produces only III pounds
OF butterfat per year while there are
herds in the southern part of the state
producing 600 pounds Of butter on the
average and there are many herds
with butterfat records of $50 to SOC
pounds.

farmers complain of, said Mr.. Wheel.
er, the trouble in getting hired hands
might be minimized easily If the farm
ers kept better cows. One farmer in
single year. he pointed out. by keep
ing better cows got as big a return
from four COWS the second year as
previously from ten.
Dean Fl. L. Russell pointed out in
his address that the farm college is
costing every farmer in the state about
tea cents on every $1,000 of assess
ment. so that each farmer is paying
in the aggregate about so cents year
for support of the farm school.
Come here and get your so cents
