torney General for sixteen years,
at the handsome salary of $4,000
per annum. and has had his salary
increased to $4,000. He now has
the nerve to ask the Republicans
of this Circuit to give him this
same office for years more. Nor-
ily is there no end to Buttram's
appetite for public office.
If l am elected to this office, l
pledge you not to ask for an in
crease of salary. Gen Buttram has
lobbied with every Legislature
during the last eight years to give
him an assistant and to have his
salary increased. The Legislature
Of three years ago gave him an as
sistant at $500 per year, and the
last legislature increased his salary
from $500 to 5000 per year.
When Buttram first ran for At
torney General he declared that .
years in office ought to satisfy any
man. When he made his second
race he did it with the express
promise that he would not be
candidate again, Notwitnstand-
ing his repeated declarations and
promises to the contrary, he is now
a candidate for the third term of
an eight year office, and don't be
deceived my counlrymen. Butt
ram has the hardlhood to take this
office just as long as you will give
it to him.
If this Office is burden it ought
to be shared; if it is blessing 1T
ought to BIZ passed around.
Since the birth Of our govern
ment no man has had the presumpt-
ton to ask for a third term for the
Presidency of this country. Tie
Father of the Republic, George
Washington, set the precedent by
declining a third term. This just
rule has been accepted generally
as to all other offices. | know OF
no good reason for making an ex-
ception to this principal in behalf
of General But,ram. Surely his
administration of the duties
of the the office has not merrited
this unusual consideration. Has
he reduced crime to any marked
degree. and have you heard OF any
reduction in court costs, as result
of his initiative? | bet you have
heard of some young violaters who
happen to have influential friends
who got the ear Of the General; ana
I'll wager also that you know OF
some poor unfortunate who has to

The report last Thursday from

has arrived in the war zone were
not supplied with warm enough
clothing for the cold latitude, has
been exlained by the fact that the
destroyers sailed from American
ports before the supplies could be

heavy wooden and rubber clothing
for all the men are now on their
way. The crews of every des-
troyer which has left subsequently
have been completely QUILTED.
To the women of the United
States is due the credit for this
measure of protection. Under di-
rection of the Navy League thou
sands of American women have
been knitting wooden garments
and a special fund has been raised
to buy rubber coats and felt boots.
American warships have never
before been called upon for service

THE BEAN CROP
IN DELAWARE
Prof. McCue Gives Advice To
Farmers

The Delaware farmer has been
attracted by the high price of field
beans and many are seriously con-
sidering the growing of this crop.
The crop is a new one for most
Delaware farmers and doubtless
many attempts to raise field beans
will result either in financial loss
or a very low net return per acre.
The farmers of the State should
not become so stampeded by the
lack of food products that they
change from the regular staple
crop, which they are accustomed
to grow. and plunge into raising
crops whose cultural requirements
they do not understand. Letters
coming to the Experiment Station
from all portions of the State show
that the Delaware farmer is wo-
fully ignorant as to the culture of
field beans. With the high cost of
seed and the uncertainty of the
crop, the Experimental Station
would advise all would-be' bean
growers to limit their maiden at
tempt to a small acreage until they
have learned the peculiarities of
the crop. Soy beans probably pre-
sents greater possibilities for Della
ware farmers than does the field
bean. Soy beans are now being
used for nearly all purposes to
which the dry shelled bean is
adapted.
The field bean. while it thrives
on nearly all soils except heavy
clays, should be grown on soils
that are fairly well supplied with
plant food and organic matter.
Bean fields should be well drained.
The sandy loan and clay loan soils
of Delaware, if well drained, ought
to produce good field beans. The
common rotations for beans in the
Michigan and New York bean dis
tricts are clover. beans. wheat or
clover, pasture. beans. and wheat.
Beans leave the land in fine con-
dition for the wheat crop. In
Delaware. beans could take the
place of corn in the rotation. or
could follow the first crop of corn
where it has been the custom to
grow corn on the same land two
years in succession.
Field beans should not be plant.

er is past. Late planted beans are
usually more free of certain dis
eases than early planted ones. In
this State. field beans could safely
be planted as late as July. The
time of planting should be so ar
ranged that the beans are ripe be
fore frost. The planting SHOULD
be done in rows and not in hills
The rows may range from % to &c
