A Balanced Agriculture.

The departments advice is not to
substitute peanuts for cotton and thus
maintain the uneconomic system of
one-crop agriculture. On the contrary.
the advice is to utilize the peanut in
certain sections by making it part of
a well-balanced agriculture and espec-
tally by using it in areas Of serious
boll-weevil depreciation as part insur-
ance against cotton losses. The farm
er need not hesitate to plant a some
what larger acreage than his present
needs for hog and cattle feed. If the
price happens to be low, ne can buy
more hogs and market the peanuts in
that way; if the price happens to be
high, he can sell the surplus to advant-
age. To raise peanuts year in and year
otu as the sole money crop would be
as unwise as to depend upon cotton
alone.

the facts were about as follows;
His car was being trailed into

When Miss PecOra had passed the

ST. CHARLES PEOPLE HOLD
SUCCESSFUL TOWN FAIF

Last Saturday was a gala day for
the enterprising people OF st. Charles
for on that day they held a town
fair and although II was the first
event Of the kind 1t proved to be
such successful one that the town
fair will likely be yearly event in
the future.
The forenoon was spent i'm plac-
ing the exhibits in the amusement
hall and as the people began 90
gather there after dinner express
sions OF surprise were made by every
one at the great variety and excel
lence OF the exhibits. There were
pumpkins and squashes as large as
q wash tub, and potatoes as large
well. we won't state how large our
said some of them were.
for our readers who didn't see them
wouldn't believe the statement. There
were also many fine samples Of ev-
cry other kind of garden truck. Then
there were apples that would have
taken the blue ribbon At any coun-
~ fair in the state.
Talk about canned fruit and pre-
serves-why the exhibits demonstrate
ed that the good housewives OF 81.
Charles had not only been busy this
fall but they know how to put up
fruit for the winters use. The gem
erous array OF canned fruit caused
everyone there to suddenly feel as
though they were powerful hun
cry"
The young ladies also demonstrate
ed that they are adopts with the
needle for there was q fine display
of fancy work of all kinds. The
kids" also had 9 hand in the fair
and displayed some splendid work
from the primary department.
After all had reviewed the splen-
did exhibits. a program was render
ed. and then . session of kangaroo
court was held. with Z. M. Pugmire
as judge. A number OF people-both
old and young-were hailed before
Ibis honor" who assessed hnes
against them In sums ranging from
rs to SO cents. After court" ad-
1ourned the people returned 70 their
homes. to do the chores and get a
bite to eat. Later in the evening they
again assembled at the hall and en-
toyed themselves at dancing until q
late hour.
II the St. Charles people had only
let. It be known that they were TO
have this big doins'. they would have
had visitors from every section of
the county. We suggest to them
that next year they do not keep their
light under n bushel. but let II
shine forth 30 all Of the county can
see what they are dong.

bag Of fittings at the request Of Norman
Woodward. another employee OF the
store, who told him that he had prom
Used the plumber the articles.
Later Dorsey came TO him for bath
cock, which he gave him. he, the wit
ness. taking IS. half Of which was to
go to zoe" Weatherby, another en-
ploye Of the company.
Weatherby was present at that Time

bathcock. Stiegler said. he would have
! TO go 90 the ofilce. where q price vo Ia
be set on IL, get the money from the
buyer. and then make out cash sale
slip. This was not done In his trans
action with Dorsey. he testified, because
there was an understanding between
Dorsey. Weaiherby and himself where
by Dorsey was 20 get the bathcock. and
Weatherby and himself were 20 be
given s. between them. Overweight
was given Dorsey continually In buy
ing fittings for which witness would

instructed not 20 send any articles only
by Rothwel. No papers. as is Gus
tomary in making sales. were made out
FOR the outfits. according 20 Steirle-
Stiegler said that ne had no trans
action with Smith.
. The witness said that yesterday. while
, he was with Joseph Weatherby. he was
approached by Smith who asked him
TO testify IN court that there was no
agreement between them, as this state
ment would cause the case 10 be
/, dropped since there would be no evi
dence Of conspiracy.
The witness said that he received
about $500 for giving Dorsey about $50
worth OF supplies.
The trial will be continued this az
ternoon.
