dOrsed For New Office
Congress Will Create.
ASK PRESIDENT
TO GIVE HIM PLACE
Bill Now Before Congress Shows
Work is Eco Much For
One Judge.

Petitions are being circulated throu-
gh the various counties of Southeast
Missouri, urging President Wilson
to appoint Arthur l.. Oliver, Judge Of
the New Federal Court, which is soon
TO be created in this district by Con-
gress.
A bill is now pending in Congress,
asking for the creation Of a new Judge
ship to take care Of the work which
Judge d. 2. Dyer is unttle to handle
The business of this fedora district
has been doubled, it is said, during the
pasts few years, and Judge Dyer is
unable to keep the dockets in the dis
ltrict clear.
The new Judge, if Congress deems
the appointment necessary, will as
is;st Judge Dyer in disposng Of the
the cases that come up in the three
courts over which he presiGes Judge
Dyer presides in St. Eouis. Cape
Girardeau and Hannibal. The cases
docketed in ST. Louis alone, lawyers
say are sufficient TO eqIire the whole
time of one Judge.
Mr. Oliver, who is now the l. S. At
torney in this district, and if the
judgeship 5 created it is believed
that he will not be opposed for the
Office 1t il, understood that he has
the endorsement Of Democratic con-
gressmcn in tie district and the two

MILK IN WINTER.

Why do your COWS give less milk
in winter than they do in summer?
Just because nature does not sup
ply them with grasses and green
food. But we have come to the as
sistance of Dame Nature with b. A.
Thomas Stock Remedy which con-
tains the very ingredients that the
green feed supplies in season only, of
course, in more highly concentrated
form. We guarantee that this rem
edy will make your cows give more
milk, and better milk, with the same
feed.

for the time to come when he must depart
for the White House. He didn't care TO
discuss nature taking or to say whether
he thought that the President wanted TO
ask him if he really and trql y believed that
a rabbit and fox could hold converse
lions in negro dialect. He denied, how
ever, that the President had been urging
him for some time to dine at the White
House. The newspaper story to that
effect was a human nature fake, he said.
There had been one invitation only, he ex-
planned, and that had been accepted
promptly. :. . Midnight Mr.. Harris
