EndO ment of 100000 Also Present
ed-Exercises Attended by
Large Crowd
Ru the IInited Press Associstlons.

| By the United Press Associations
HODGENSVILLE, KY, Sept. A.
Lincoln's birthplace has been added tt
| the government treasures. Presiden
| Wilson received the deed to the prop
erty and an endowment fund of $1O0,
| 900 for it's maintenance from the Lin
coin farm association.
Standing before the historic cabin
President Wilson called Lincoln the
Embodiment of validity and the Vi
tally of democracy" In the course
of his address accepting the property
the president said This little hui
was the cradle of one of the greatest
sons of men, man of singular and
delightful vital genius who presently
emerged upon great stage in the ma
tons history, quaint and ungainly
but dominant and majestic, a natural
ruler of men,"
Former Governor Joseph w. Folk
of Missouri, president of the associa-
ton, in presenting the farm and
cabin to the government, emphasized
the need for Americanism in the eve
ry-day life of the individual Ameri-
can, in the government and particular
ly in the foreign relations of the Uni
ted States. Mr.. Folk said in part:
1.-THE spirit of Lincoln is more alive
today than when he lived in the flesh.
His ideals live in millions of Ameri-
can freemen.-
HE founded an Americanism that
is not matter of creed or national
descent, but an ideal of the soul and
of the mind; an Americanism that is
not merely a union of political en-
titles, but of a common aspiration
and common destiny.
'Lincoln's AAmericanism was SO
virile that there need be no nation
SO strong we should fear it, OF so
powerful we should cover at its feet;
an Americanism SO just that the
Golden Rule may be the supreme law
guiding us in our diplomatic rela-
tons with other nations; an Ameri-
canism ready to defend against the
aggression of all nations, but inten-
tionally offending none in upholding
the principles of the rights of man
the world; an American
ism that gives hone to those who
would preserve the sacred fire OF
brotherhood now in danger of being
in the sanguinary
foods across the sea; an Americanism
5ased upon service for the common
good and equality of opportunity for

STREET RANSACKED AND
BURGLARIZED
Another Place Entered in Broad Day.
light and Money and Jewelry Ia
ken-Public Warned

Daylight and night burglaries have
been prevalent during the past &C
hours and Chief of Police Grant Rob-
bins has issued warning to people
of Moscow against entertaining tran
sients who are calling at homes beg
ging for food or clothing. At least
two homes in Moscow were robbed OF
money, jewelry and clothes and an at
tempt made in two other places.
Some time between seven and nine
o'clock Friday night the home of
Charles S. Clark on Adams and B
streets was entered and ransacked
and robbed, the burglar making away
With jewelry, a revolver and two
pairs of shoes. Another house on
Adams street was entered while the
occupants wene absent and money and
jewelry taken. In both instances no
clue was left by the burglar as to his
identity. At the Clark home the
rooms were ransacked in a hurried
search for valuables and many burned
matches were found on the floor to
indicate the burglar carried no flash
light.
At the Gossett home on Almond
street Friday afternoon when men,
bers of the family were in the kitchen,
q child living nearby entered the front
door and discovered a man in the
front room. She Immediately gave the
alarm. The man made his escape
promptly
Inquiry made by Chief of Police
Robbins Saturday developed that
man had called at a home on B street
Thursday last asking for something to
eat. He was served by the occupants
of the house and it was learned while
there became talkatve. His CONVEX
sation and actions were suspicious
and from the description obtained is
believed to have been the same man
who entered the Clark home.
'People of Moscow are asked to be
alert at this time and the call Of sus-
picious characters at homes in quest |
OF either food or clothing, should be !
noted carefully and a description ia
ken and the city hall notified prompt
w." said Chief Robbins last night.
There is no reason why anyone should
be out of work at this time of the year
and no cause for anyone to beg for
food or clothing. l hope the people
of Moscow will phone Main H. the
city hail. any time during the day if
such persons appear, giving a descrip-
ion of the caller, and this also ap
plies to persons peddling needles or
1ther notions. At night central may

FLUSHING OF EWES FAVORED
Expert Of Washington Station Recon-.
mends Animals BE Placed In
Succulent Pasture.

Flushing is the term applied to the
practice Of stimulating the organs of
reproduction by supplying additional
grain or more succulent pasture to the
ewes. An insufficiency Of feed retards
the breeding season, and reduces the
fertility.
To flush ewes, Prof. VIM. Hislop of
the Washington experiment station
recommends that they be placed in q
succulent pasture and fed one-half to
one pound per day of two parts oats
and one part bran for ten days previ-
Gus to turning the ram in with them.
It is equally important that the ewes
be not overly fat at this time.
All the wool about the dock of the
ewes should be trimmed away before
mating. AS a means of distinguishing
the ewes that have been bred, paint
the ram on the brisket with some color
which will leave a mark on the wool
of the eve. At the end of q days the
ram should be painted another color.
In this manner the owner is enabled to
tell whether or not the ewes are "re-
turning"

LATE BLIGHT IS INJURIOUS
Disease Of Potatoes 10 Especially seri.
Gus During Wet Seasons
Caused by Fungus.

One of the serious potato diseases is
the late blight. This disease is espe-
cially injurious during wet seasons.
Blight is caused by fungus which
lives over winter in the tubers. When
the diseased tubers are planted the
mycelium Of the fungus grows up
through the sprouts to the surface Of
the ground where spores are produced
on the surface of the stems and leaves.
These spores are blown to other plants
where, with sufficient moisture, they
grow and enter the tissues of the
plant, branching out In all directions.
Many Of the spores fall to the ground,
where they may infect the young
tubers. II the tubers are dug while
the disease Is active on the vines,
large numbers Of spores come In con-
tact with the tubers and may produce
Infection.

COTTONSEED AS DAIRY FEED
One Of Cheapest Sources Of Protein
suppIy-Amoun Fed Daily Should
Not Be Large.

(By r. 8. HULCE, Illinois Experiment
Station)
Cottonseed meal is one of the cheap
est sources Of protein supply for dairy
cows. Only meal that is In good con-
dition should be used in a grain mix
ture. Since the meal itself is very
rich concentrate, the amount Of cot
tonseed meal fed daily should ordi-
narily not exceed three pounds and
should be used as one of several feeds
in grain mixture. The character Of
the grain mixture that should be fed
vii depend somewhat on the nature Of
the roughages being used.

CONTROL OF APPLE DISEASES
Extensive Work Done by Bureau Of
Plant Industry In sprayino-spe-

The bureau Of plant industry has
been doing some extensive work In the
way of spraying for the control of ap-
pie blotch and apple bitter-rot. The
special feature of this work has been
the discovery of the Overwhelming Of
the bitter-rot fungus on various small
and minor cankers and on cankers and
injuries produced by other causes, and
the demonstration that when these are
removed full control Of bitter-rot can
be obtained.
