We got them to build another 10000. We thought
that would be enough TO last through the fall. But
no, the 10000 were quickly taken up during the

President Wilson lays and cements

OF the great men Of the nation.
Among them will be the governors

scented in the persons OF the chief
executive OF the nation and some OF
its constructive statesmen and its
captains Of industry, will be dedi-

fertile acres which lack of rainfall
seemed to have doomed to barren

Great armies are being employed

Willis, was elected by 31,25S plurality.
The percentage Of Progressiyes in Ohio
was, therefore, much smaller than In
Maine. The Democratic candidate re-
ceived 92,229 fewer votes than the
combined Republican and Progressive
vote. In Wisconsin the Republican
candidate for governor was elected
with 140,7S7 votes, the Progressives
casting 1850 the combined vote being
1888 greater than that OF the Demo-

be no sincere doubts in their minds
as to what are the prospects Of their
candidate when Mr.. Roosevelt gets
through with him, according to those
who have been permitted a glimpse
at the outline OF Mr.. Roosevelt's
speeches. Some OF these enthusiasts
even go so far as to say that the Demo-
cratic donkey will look like an army
mule after six months in the Euro
pean trenches, once Mr.. Roosevelt has
completed his speaking trip. That
was what he looked like to the Maine
voters after Mr.. Roosevelt had spoken
there, and there may be some basis
for the prediction Of Mr.. Hughes's
supporters regarding his appearance
in the middle West after he has gone
up against the body blows OF "the

he made the fatal mistake OF putting
himself and Secretary Daniels on the
board to make the purchases. Repub-
licans. and some intelligent Democrats,
like Senator Bankhead, foresaw that
TO buy these vessels in time OF war
and send them out under the American
flag would inevitably involve this coun-
try in tho European war, while. Demo-
cratic and Republican senators alike
were wholly unwilling to trust Mr..
McAdoo to purchase S50.O00,0O0 worth

poor old Danields would be "me too"
on the board and that the other mem
bers would not dare oppose the presl-
dents son-in-law. They sought to
amend the bill by eliminating McAdoo
and Daniels from the board and in
sorting a provision against buying for
eign ships. The crown prince would
not permit That and the bill was de-
feated by a Republican fllIbuster with
which the Democratic senators frankly
sympathized, emphaically expressing
their sympathy in private. So the bill
went over until this time and Is now
passed with the required amendments.
Now, however, private enterprise has
done much to supply the lack Of ships
and every shipyard is so crowded that
no ships can be built for the govern
ment for three years and none are for
sale. But still 1t is not useless meas

The season of Agricultural Fairs is up.
on us again and attention is directed
anew to the helpful exhibit of the La
noble Valley Fair, which for many years
has given the farmers of the county an
annual opportunity to meet and exchange
views and discover what their neighbors
are accomplishing in the way of better
ments and Improvements in the tilling o
the soil and stock raising The displays
at the Fair are always educative and the
premiums which are awarded stimulate
a healthy rivalry in the neighborhood,
for person who can win a prize in any
line of endeavor has promoted a compe-
tition in his own community that must
make for greater excellence and hence
must produce substantial results.
Besides all this, this is the annual op-
portunity for friends and neighbors to
meet and have the real old fashioned visit
which come only at Fair time. On this
occasion many meet only once year and
the visit and the let-up from the daily
routine of the busy life is an incentive to
good health and happiness. Therefore,
plan to attend the Fair, and take the
whole family with you and have a real
good time
