My judgements seal the dead past

But never bind moment yet to

Though deep in mire wiring not your

No shamefaced outcast ever sank so

But he might rise again and be a

TUESDAYS ELECTION

John X. Shields has made a
splendid United States senator.
He has been loyal to the people,
not counting whether they were
republicans or, democrats: When
adjustments come after the war
and peace treaties are to be drawn
up and acted on, a man of Sena-
tor Shields ability will be most
valuable in the senate. For he has
a grasp Of questions, both national
and international.
Judge Albert H. Roberts, our
democratic nominee for governor,
is a sincere and honest man. AS a
Judge he was able and energetic.
AS governor he will be pro.
gressive and constructive.
The democratic nominees for
congress, railroad. commissioner
and for the state senate and lower
house are good men and we'll
known to the voters Of Carroll
county. Democratic leaders in
every district in the county should
wake up to their duty and see that
every democrat in their district
goes to the polls and votes on
next Tuesday. See all democrats
of your district who do not usually
vote and get them to the polls.
This is your patriotic duty as an
encouragement to Woodrow Will
son and an endorsement of his war
policies.

nEMOCRATIG TICKET


Every democrat should be in
terested in the success Of the dem
oeratic ticket in the election next
Tuesday. The only guarantee Of
success is TO 60 to the polls and
see that your vote is cast.
1t is estimated that 1000 voters
have gone from the state and are
either in France Or 10 the camps
here, Just which party this sill
effect most is not known, and the
prudent thing TO do is for every
democrat al home to 60 and vote.
There is a sharp contest between.
republican candidates for congress
in the second district, a large re-
publican district, which will bring
out a big vote in that republican
stronghold. Democrats must over
come this or the Republicans. may
carry the state ticket, 1t is i'm
perative that every democratic
vote be gotten out.
The democratic party has a
splendid ticket. The party admin
istration, both state and national,
deserve the support of every dem
, ocrat in Carroll county and full
vote should be cast next Tuesday.

FARMS FOR SOLDIERS

The committee on public lands
in the south has unanimously re-
ported in favor of an appropria-
tion of million dollars to make
surveys of farms for returning
soldiers.
1t is the purpose of this legisla-
ton to provide an opportunity for
soldiers to procure homes if they
wish them on their return from
the war. 1t is intended to pro-
mote as nothing else ever has the
back to the land" spirit.
Il is recognized that one of the
great evils of the times in our
country is the overcrowding and
congestion of people in the cities,
many of whom are utterly untitled
for city life and not adapted to
the avocations thereof. After the
war this undesirable condition will
be greatly intensified. Further,
there will be hundreds of thous-
ands of young men who will have
returned from service in our army
and navy who will be out Of en-
ployment and for who there will be
no jobs or positions.
Many of those young men will
have some means and will want to
invest it in land and it should be the
object of the government and it is
the object Of this proposed legisla-
ton to provide them the oppor-
tanity of securing a farm. 1t il
believed the proposed legislation
and the undertaking contemplated
thereby are Of great and vital i'm
portance to the country and a
great and valuable economic pro-
gram. TO say the least Of it the
measure should receive the earnest
consideration of the people.

SoIdier's Insurance

Because Of delay in receiving
certificates many soldiers are led
to believe BY their folks back
home that they are paying for
insurance protection which they
are not receiving. This is not SO.
1.-THE soldier should die the, In.
surance would be paid even if the
certificate has not been received,
provided proper application has
been made and premiums are::being
paid. The certificate is no part of
the contract OF insurance, but
merely shows that contract exists.
Those entitled to certificates will
receive them as early as the gov
eminent can mail them out.

TIMELY FARM NEWS
Taken From Our County Agents
Note Book

The outstanding feature of farm
ing in Carroll county just not is
the Increase in wheat acreage. All
over the county we see evidence
of a big Liberty wheat crop for
the 1919 harvest Many fields of
wheat are up and growing nicely,
while much more is being sown or
will be put in within the next ten
days. There is some fear that the
early crops will be damaged by
the Hessian fly. Now is a good
time to put in the remainder of the
crop.
Reports from the district chair
man of the Liberty wheat cam.
paign are not all in, but we have
already pledged all of our quota
except 1873 acres. When all re-
turns are in we will be well over
our quota in this as well as in
every other campaign put on in
the county as a war measure. Our
citizens have more than proved
themselves thoroughly patriotic.
G. E. Drummond, of McLe-
moresville community, reports a
profitable record in wheat growing
on thin land. His reports on live
acres a labor cost of 1920, team
$1l, seed $12.40, and harvesting
vs., 40, making a total cost of $33.
Receipts are 81 bushels; wheat $50
and straw $6, making total receipts
$40. This leaves a profit of 500
for use of land, which was bene-
fitted by being left seeded in red
clover, If it thus pays to grow
wheat on thin land, it should prove
very profitable on good land,
which will yield two or three times
as much per acre. Mr.. Drummond
is putting in a crop this year after
cutting off field with d fine crop
of peas in;the middles. This is pre-
pared by double disking and har-
rowing.
Lee Taylor, of Lavinia, reports
good success with field Of corn
and soy beans in alternate rows
with'peanuts in the drill between
the bills of corn. When hogged
down this field gives a variety and
an abundance of feed, which will
cause pigs to make hogs of them
selves in a short time.
9. W. Brooks, of Atwood, is
we'll pleased with bis level cultiva-
ton of cotton, which stood the
drought much better than that on
adjoining fields. He is proud Of
a field of alfalfa now 10 inches
high.
George Blanks, of Irrelevant,
has a fine field of new alfalfa about
- inches high and a perfect stand.
Here is fine pasture for his herd OF
Duroc pigs. He has a good cover
crop of crimson clover in drilled
peas, Ewbich seeded itself where
seed was saved last spring.

are raging throughout the dual
monarchy.
Threats of revolution came out
of Germany Tuesday.
The social democrats in the
course Of manifestations threatened
to organize the labor masses and
remove the kaiser and every other
hindrance to peace, unless the
kaiser abdicates.
An official dispatch sent out
from London says the allies have
captured l26,3l5 prisoners since
the first of October. From July
to October the German prisoners
taken numbered over 100000.
Over 1000 guns have been taken
10 October, and many before that
time. American troops, President
Wilson said, are going into France
at the rate of 250,000 a month.
Figures like these would indicate
that, without regard to internal
disturbances, failure of resources
and the crumbling of the Mace
DOMAIN army, military decision
in the allies favor can't be long
delayed.
Military representatives of the
United States and Entente allies
have assembled at Versailles to
determine conditions of immediate
peace for Austria and guarantees
which must accompany any arm
istice for Germany.
They will frame, for the APP
proval or veto of the big Four"
of the supreme council and Field
Marshal Foch, commander-in- chief
of the allied armies the guarantees
which must accompany any armis-
tice arranged with Germany.
The voting members of the
big Four" are President Wilson,
represented in person by Col. E..
M. House; Premier Lloyd-George
Of Great Britain, Premier Clemen-
eau of France and Premier Or
lando of Italy.
The vote of the president can be
cast by Col. House, but matters of
supreme Importance it is expected
to be cast by cable. as the White
House will be in direct communi-
cation with Paris during all con-
ferences.
While Versailles, of course, will
have the say in the two problems,
l there is much speculation on both.
1t is accepted that in the case of
Austria the demands would be in
many respects along the lines set
forth when the Bulgarian question
was disposed Of. Austria will
have to agree, officials say, to
about the following:
Immediate rehabilitation Of her
armies.
Guarantees that these troops
will not be used against the Croats,
the Stevens, the Czechs or the
Rumanians.
Free use of the Austrian ma
tional railways by entente.
Occupation of all important Aus
trian fortified cities BY inter-
national troops pending the calling
of a peace conference.
Surrender to the allied forces of
the big Austrian gun and munition
centers, so that the German supply

movement of the allied troops
through Austria for such use
against Germany as Marshal Foch
may desire.
1t is assumed here that the Aus
trian terms viii be close along
these drastic lines, although, of
course, the military and naval
experts at Versailles win be used.

"Redhead" Is Farmers Friend.

"Redhead" is regular doctor of the
fruit orchard, Systematically search
ing every crack and crevice in the
bark, and testing with his sharp little
augur every spot which looks as
though it might conceal beneath the
bark a tree-borer. The hundreds of
little holes drilled in the bark do not
hurt the apple trees, but they mean
that many an apple-borer has been
discovered and transfxed on red
heads spearlike tongue, to be swal-
lowed a second later with keen rel
ish, or taken away to a gaping f1edg-
ling.
The red-headed woodpecker usually

beech nuts. At q loving call from its
mate it returns promptly to take it's

MERELY COUSINS OF CHRIST
Explanation Of Biblical Passages That
Seem to Say the Redeemer Had
Brothers and Sisters.

To judge from the passages Matthew
- "A. 46; 3:55. So; Luke 7:19; st.
John 7:3, 5, 10, Christ undoubtedly had
brothers and sisters. These passages,
are, however, contradicted by others,
from which we learn that the pretend
ed brothers of Christ were only his
cousins. Thus, according to Luke
6:15, and John 10 :25, James was the
son of one .Alpheus, or Cleophas, and
Mary, the Virgins sister. From Mat
thew q :55, and Mark ID 40, we learn
that Joses, or Joseph, was James
brother, and 60, according to Luke
6:16, was also Jude. In other pas
sages the fourth pretended brother OF
Christ is designated by the Jews as
the brother of James, Jude and Joses
1t is also claimed, in explanation OF
this theological puzzle, that the Jews
were wont to apply the term brother
to cousins, to relatives in collateral
line, and even to mere friends (Gene
sis 12:14-29). The view that thu
aforementioned personages were bu
Christ's cousins, and not his brothers
is held by Tertullian, Origen, Ambrosi
us, Irenaeus and, in fact, by all thu
Catholic church; also prominen
protestants (Grotius, Calvin, etc.
share in 1t.

These shawled and booted women of

To Make Your Shoes Last

When your shoe leather gets dry or
hard, you should oil or grease 1t, says
the popular Science Monthly. To do
this, first brush of all mud and then
wash the shoe in warm water, drying 1t
with q soft cloth.
While the shoe is still wet, apply the
oil or grease, rubbing it in with swab
of wool, or better still, with the palm
of the hand. After treatment, the
shoes should be left TO dry In warm
but not In a hot place. Castor Oil Is
recommended for shoes that are to be
polished For palmer footgear, fish oil
and oleine or any one of the less ex'
pensive oils may be substituted with
very good results.
