Care of Summer Chicks.

It is preferable to hatch chicks in
the four early months of the year on
account of the fact that these chicks
are able to withstand the heat of sum-
mer and the usual excess of mites
and feas better than younger biddies
However summer chicks can be hatch
ed and raised proftably if attention
is given the following rules suggested
by Prof. F. c. Hare of Clemson Col
lege.
Dust the setting hen with sodium
huOride before you set her and twice
during the Matching period. Make
the nest on the ground in a cool place.
cover nest and hen with large box
about two by four in size and about
two feet highland place a dish of
grain and another of fresh water in
the box. The box has no floor and
one side should be, covered with Stats
spaced IL inches apart.
Soak the eggs for two minutes in
warm water just before the chicks
hatch. Sprinkle water in the nest:
Move hen and chicks to shaded run
when chicks are about thirty-six
hours old and keep the hen in the
box for the first two or three days
then let her run with the chicks.
Do not allow these chicks to go on
ground over which the older chicks
have ranged. If you do, the young
biddies will be stunted by eating the
filth and contaminated soil. Put
them away by themselves on shaded
grass lot, or in part Of the garden
where they will be protected from
the midday sun, and they will not
mind the heat.
Dust the mother hen every two
weeks with sodium fluoride till bid
dies are weaned, then dust them oc-
casionally if needed. Do not let the
leas bother them. If put away from
the poultry house and other fowls
they will not have mites.
Give them butter milk or sour milk
if possible to drink. Mix wheat
shorts with buttermilk and feed what
they will eat morning and noon. Give
crooked corn at night. Keep fresh
water before them at all times.
Many people hatch chicks every
month in South Carolina and have a
constant supply of frys. Anyone who
separates the broods and guards
against soil contamination, as we'll
as prevents loss by lice, mites and
feas can grow chicks at any time
without loss.

Keep Trying.

Lord Tomnoddy was very much in
love with Fluffy FlipfOp, the famous
revue star, and announced his inten-
tion of asking the lady to marry him
the following night.
"And you think she will say 'yes'?"
asked the father, amiably.
''Oh, l don't know" said the love
sick youth. 'sShe's so beautiful and
fascinating 1 feel I can never hope to
win her love!"
ooh, rot!" said the father, en-
couragingly, Lots of other men
have succeeded. Why shouldn' t
you?"

History of Harding.

Senator Harding is successful
newspaper publisher. Since 1884 he
has owned and published the Marion
Star. He has been in newspaper work
since he was nineteen. When in Ma
rion he spends all of his time at the
Star Office in the active management
of the paper. He is practical printer
and delights in spending hours in his
composing room handling type.
He began his newspaper career on
the Marion Mirror, which was Dem
ocratic newspaper, at SO a week sal
ary, and was discharged from the staff
of that paper during the Blaine cam
paign because his sympathies were
with Blaine and because he insisted
on wearing the high hat of the Blaine
partisans.
The Republican presidential nomi-
nee was born November 2, 1865, at
Blooming Grove, Morrow county,
Ohio, just nineteen miles east of Ma
rion. When a boy his family moved
to California, nine miles nearer Ma
rion, where young Harding taught
school for two years. He played a
cornet in the California brass band
and later received a college educa-
ton at little Baptist college at
iberia, Ohio.
When he was 13 years old Harding
moved to Marion to study law, but
law did not hold his fancy long. In
college he had been editor Of the col
1ege paper, and newspaper work
thrilled him. 1t was then that he
began work on the Mirror, from
which paper he was ''ired.''
His political life began in 1899,
when he was elected to the state SEN
ate from the Thirtieth Ohio district.
Elected Lieutenant Governor.
In 1908 he was elected Lieutenant

SENATOR WARREN G. HARDIN"
NAMED.

Deadlock i'm C. o. p. Convention Erok
en- Saturday When All Elements
Settled on Ohio Sena-
tor for Nomination.

Chicago. June 12.-Warren q.
Harding, United States Senator from
Ohio. was nominated for the presi-
dency today by the Republican nation
al convention after deadlock which
lasted for nine ballots and which I'm
allv forced out of the running all the
original favorites.
AS his running mate, the conVen-
ton named Governor Calvin Coolidge,
of Massachusetts, upsetting a plan OF
q combination of the Harding hackers
to nominate for the place senator
Irvine L. Lenroot, of Wisconsin.
The collapse of the forces of Gov
ernor Frank O. Lowden and their
transfer in large part to Senator
Harding, put the Ohio candidate over.
General Wood lost heavily, how
ever, when the Harding drift began
and Senator Jahnson, the third OF the
trio of leaders on the early ballotlng
Yesterday, also went steadily down
hill.
Entering the convention four days
ago as a candidate distinctly of the
ssdark horse class, Senator Harding
got only sixty-four votes on the first
ballot yesterday and on the second
he dropped to Sc.
When the convention adjourned
last night at the end of the fourth
ballot he had 81.
Wood and Lowden Run Close.
In all-night conferences among the
party chiefs, however, he was men
toned many times as the most likely
TO break the nomination deadlock
should neither Wood, Lowden nor
Johnson take commanding lead to-
day. They all failed to do so, Wood
and Lowden running a neck and neck
race for leadership on four more bal
lots, while the strength Of the Cali
fornia candidate dwindled steadily.
Meantime Harding pushed his total
to 1873, individual delegates from
many states swinging to him from the
columns of the leaders and of varl-
Gus favorite sons. The Johnson man
ayers, fearing landslide was I'M
pending, then made last play to
save the fortunes of their candidate.
They moved to recess for couple OF
hours in order to take an inventory
and seek a new combination. The
Wood and Lowden forces, both virtu-
ally at the peak of their strength
but both disheartened at the long
string of ballots without material
gains, fell in with the recess plan and
the convention adopted it.

Their Luck.

THE farmers, generally speaking,
"Yes,' Interrupted the Erratic Think
er. '"The farmers, like pretty much
everybody else, are generally speak
ing; but, unlike most other bodies Of
labor, when they voice their de-
mands they do not say the same thing
in unison. Therefore, there is no
throughly clear statement from them,
but merely confusing gable, and
they get nothing.

Raising the Hat.

"In days Of old when knights were
bold' it was not always safe to &c
abroad unprotected. Armor was gen
orally worn, and the helmet was in
dispensable. At the kings court, how.
ever, it was illegal to draw a sword
and people in the presence of the
king always went bareheaded as a
mark of their knowledge of theil
safety. The same became true in the
presence of ladies and the custom oil
uncovering became mark of respect
that is universal.
