Mr.. Stanley took a different view
when he was making his race LIST
fall. He then went about the State
urging hssitating voters to vote for
him because Mr.. Morrow could not

took the position that there, was
certain to be q Democratic Legis-

should be chosen Governor 90 the
people could hold the AdministrS-

Mr.. Stanley was elected by a
narrow margin, and both branches
of the Legislature are Democratic.

Stanley indicated that he wished

The Legislature has been In session
only little more than thirty days,
and it Is evident that the Governor
has aroused the strongest antagon-

at the beginning to follow him, The
mysterious bill to divide Pike county
undoubtedly went far to spread a.
broad . feeling of dIssatIsfsction,
but the real break came when the.
Governor opposed the Greene Sun

eleven joints, or in other words

the ear. Mr.. Marsee brought
the stalk to his home and intend

SUPPLYING WATER TO SWINE
One of Difficult Problems Hog Rails.
ers Must Solve in Winter-Tank
Heaters Are Best.

1t is true that hogs, especially pigs,
do not get as much water as they need
during cold, freezing weather The wa
ter should be heated in cold weather to
at least so degrees Fahrenheit, and it
is better if it is heated to 20 or so de-
grees. How to heat the water and
keep it warm is one of the difficult
problems hog raisers have to solve in
winter.
Some folks water the hogs several
times during the day and pour all the
water that is left out of the troughs
as soon as the hogs drink.
Others have arranged various de-
vices in which they can use tank heat
ers. This is the most convenient and
satisfactory way if large number of
hogs can be watered at one place. The
method to use will have to be deter
mined by local conditions.
Hogs do not thrive or make good
gains when ice water is given them in
troughs that already are half filled with
ice.

TRAVEL IN ARMY FORMATION
Observer Has Told of Peculiar Hab-
its Of Crabs Found in Philip
pine Islands.

On some of the sand-f1ats of the
Philippine islands, uncovered at low
tide, there are often to be seen huge
numbers of the grayish- blue crabs
called Myctiris. The body has the
shape and size of a cherry, and the
legs are set close. Dr. R. P. Cowles
has given us lovely picture of the
ways of these creatures.
They move about like diminutive
armies, though the individuals seem
to be scrambling along rather awk-
wardly.
But what is most remarkable is
their power of intrenching themselves
with extraordinary rapidly At one
moment there are tens of thousands
On the sands, the next moment there
are none.
By approaching very slowly and
carefully, Doctor Cowles was able to
see what happened. When he got
near enough and stamped with his
foot, every crab dug into the sand
with the legs on one side, and at the
same time rotated its body, so that
it sank out Of sight in a spiral.
In two or three seconds the army
had buried itself After few minutes,
If the sand was not shaken, they be-
gan to dig themselves out again and,
reforming their ranks, resumed their
march

BEST WAY TO WINTER GERA-
NUNS
BY EBEN REXFORD.

The question is asked, How can
in two ways First, in pots Second,
by hanging them up by the heels, so
to speak.
Neither way is absolutely sure to
bring them through in good condition.
But either way may prove successful,
therefore it is advisable TO try both
if one has fine varieties ne would
like to save for next summer If one
fails the other may prove successful
To winter them in pots the plants
should be crowded into as small pots
as will contain them, and then the
tops should be cut away so that all
that remains of the summers growth
is few stubs at the base O. the plant
Do not try to encourage any growth
after potting. Set them away in a
cool but frost-proof place and keep
them there as long as it is safe to do
SO. Then put them in cool cellar.
The soil in the pots should be quite
dry when they go into cold storage
and it should be kept in that condi-
ton, as nearly as possible, all through
the winter Not really dry, of course
but with only a hint of moisture in
it-so little, indeed, that it would seem
dry when compared with ordinary
soils.
The aim is to keep the plants as
nearly dormant as possible, and this
cannot be done if they are moist at
the roots. Heat also encourages
growth, and the absence of it has a
tendency to keep the plants at a
standstill.
Treated as advised above, it is pos
sible to bring geraniums through the
winter in such a condition that they
begin to grow as soon as brought to
the light and warmth Of the sitting
room after being watered.
The necessary conditions, you will
observe, are dryness of soil and a
low temperature.
1t Is less work to make the plants
free from the soil they have grown in
during the Summer and simply hang
up the mass IF roots in the cellar.
This should not be done Immediately
after lifting the plants, however
This method makes it necessary for
us to leave them in the ground as
long as possible, we'll UP to cold
weather, in fact, for if they were to
go into the cellar while the tempera
ture was high, growth would be al
most sure to begin.
Therefore the plants must be left
in the ground and protected from frost
until about the first of November, if
possible. Then lift them on a warm

Turkish Hospitality.

The Turkish people, like most 9TH
ers, are of mingled yarn" and have
their virtues as we'll as their faults
Writing about a visit in a Turkish
home an Englishwoman. Miss Grace
Ellison, says: In no other land have
met with such lavish hospitality. . 1t
is the custom, too, for the master of
the house OF pay all the visitors bills.
That l should have proposed to stamp
my own letters hurt my friends The
Turkish bathroom is described as an
Improvement on the western European
one. for it is "a marble basin like a
fountain enabling the bather to wash

vessel more or less soiled by INNER
sion.

day and spread tho roots out in the
sunshine, after first cutting away all
the top.
Cover well at night and expose them
next day if the weather is favorable.
Do not put them in the cellar until all
the soil adhering to the roots has
become SO dry it can easily be shaken
off.
Then tie string to each plant and
suspend it about midway between
floor and ceiling. Do not place them
OF the floor, for there it is likely to
be too damp. nor close to the ceiling,
for there it is likely to be too dry.
While the geranium does not have
tuberous root, like the dahlia, it
has fleshy root which enables it to
store UP enough moisture to supply
its needs for long period.
If one has a room in the house
where plants can be kept safely
would advise taking cuttings from
each choice variety early in the fall
Root these in sand and put them into
small pots as soon as the cuttings be-
gin to grow.
This gives you a third method of
keeping desirable plants over winter
and will generally prove successful
when the other two fail
Those who live in the vicinity of a
greenhouse can get their plants stored
there at little expense and | would
advise this whenever possible
But, lacking this facility, don't fail
to try the methods recommended
above if you have choice varieties that
you Go not feel sure of being able to
duplicate next season. When one gets
fine variety it's worth while to
hang ON to it.

The prettiest dress of the Mpongwe
woman is cloth drawn up under the
arms, scarf on the shoulders, and a
handkerchief folded over the coiled
hair in high stiff fold set well up
on the head, rather like child's idea
of crown, writes Jean Kenyon Mac
kenzie in the Atlantic. There is a
great fancy for puppies and lavenders
set off with shades of rose and red
and sudden keen note of gilt With
black there will be a touch of most
delicate bright green. A cloth and
scarf worn by woman of beautiful
gesture-and Gabonnaise is always
that-have a certain mutable charm;
