WALLACE BELIEVES : WILSON WILL WIN
 COMING ELECTION
State Game and Fish Com- missioner Points Out Rea- sons Why President
 Should Be Reelected
By REUBEN A. LEWIS

While some democrats view the po- Htical chances of Woodrow Wilson as dark and ominous, John W. Wallace, state game and fish commissioner, is staunch in his belief that an avalanche of votes will sweep the party into power on November 2. The defeat of the Pres- 1dcnt in the balloting, he declares, would be national calamity" Sincere in his belief that the party has kept it's con tract and firm in the opinion that the achievements of the party in construc- tive legislation are the marvel of the century, MT. Wallace is confident that the President cannot fail of election.
 The election of President Wilson would mean the triumph of Americanism and the proper recognition of far-sighted constructive statesmanship, of executive courage and patriotic devotion to duty. his defeat would amount to a national , calamity" said MT. Wallace
 The wonderful record of constructive legislation achievement under President Wilson is the marvel of the century, all of which has been directly in the inter- est of the masses of the people, whose welfare the republican party has hereto fore signally ignored. Every promise made in the platform of the democratic party four years ago has been fulfilled. The party has kept it's contract with the people,
 The tariff has been revised downward, and tariff board has beNn created to protect the American business and also the American consumer

Dad Was Puzzled

From the Pittsburg Chronicle. In these days of good education chill dren learn things their fathers and mothers know very little about.
 Nora. aged nine, met her father the other day with her little blue eyes full of tears.
 "Oh.. daddy!" she walled. "Tve just fallen and dumped my pate1la."
 Dear. dear! Poor little grill" said father, sympathetically, as with the best intentions in the world he bent to examine her elbow.
 Nora drew herself angrily away.

AUTUMN DEMAND FOR CELERY
Tendency to Rush Product to Market
Before II Is Well BIanched-Loss
in Trimming.

The bracing fall weather will stimu-
late the demand for celery. At this
season when it is selling readily at
good prices, there is a tendency to
rush celery to market before it is we'll
blanched. This is a mistake, because
it necessltates severe trimming at the
market end, and the product goes to
the cheaper trade. To catch the best
grade, celery must be fully blanched,
clean and well trimmed.
Handling" celery should be finished
promptly and the rows ridged as fast
as possible. If the soil is allowed to
get into the hearts of the plants II
will cause rot. Celery intended for
storage should not be ridged. In some
quarters there is a prejudice against
blanching celery with boards. 1t is
claimed that blanching with earth
makes it crisper and gives 1t better
flavor. Just the same, much of the
product grown in various parts of the
country is blanched with boards, and
1t sells for top prices, too.

CAULIFL0WER IN FAVOR
Vegetable Is Closely Related to
the Cabbage Tribe.
Very Rich Soil Required, and IL Must
Be Given Most Particular Treat
ment-Market Demands Snowy
White Heads.

Cauliflower Is closely related to the
cabbage tribe, but much more refined
in its habits and more difficult to cul-
tivate. 1t requires very rich soil and
the most particular treatment, and no
farmer or gardener would be justified
in attempting its cultivation on a large
scale, or to depend upon 1t as a market
crop without first having thoroughly
studied it's peculiarities and require
ments.
The market desires snowy white
heads, so that protection is universally
practiced to accomplish this purpose.
Three methods are used: % the
breaking of half a dozen or more
leaves over the top of the caulifiOwer
head. The stems of the leaves are
not severed entirely, so that the leaves
remain green. (2) Breaking or bend
ing over the leaves as just explained,
and pinning with toothpicks or small
pins. This is a very satisfactory
method for all sections. (3) Bringing
the leaves together over the head and
tying. This is an excellent plan, but re-
| quireS more time than securing with
the toothplcks. The protection should
begin when the heads are about an
inch and half in diameter.
Cauliflower is considered a delicacy
on most tables, and it pays to exercise
special care in the marketing. AL.
though barrels are often used, crates
or baskets are better. A package
which will not hold more than doz-
en- or at most two dozen heads GER
tainly has an advantage over the bar
rels.
If the heads are of good size, snowy
white, wrapped in fancy paper, anc
marketed in new, clean packages they
cannot fail to attract attention, ant
command good prices.

MANURE APPLIED IN GARDEN
Fresh Fertilizer Induces Rank Growth
Of Stem and Leaf-Ylsid 10
Greatly Reduced.

Barnyard manure is good for the
garden II applied at the right time,
but there are times when its appu-
cation is harmful. Fresh manure,
when applied Immediately before
planting. cannot be thoroughly incor-
p~rated with the soil. AS result the
land is hard to work and the ground
is loose instead of compact Fresh
manure also induces a rank growth Of
stem and leaf. and. as a result of these
factors, the yield Of most vegetables
II greatly reduced.
