Not so Desperate.
Charter No. 1855.

The following editorial clipped
from the Memphis Commercial
Appeal admits that President Wilson
lost out at the San Francisco Con-
vention both in debating the plat
form and the presidential nominee:
Mr. Bryan's case is not half so
desperate az be likes to believe.
His convention record is that of
having won an important victory.
and having lost one fight that may
not turn out to be loss at all.
He won on the question of reserva-
tions. which was the biggest single
issue put up to the Democracy at
San Francisco. He lost on his effort
to get a plank stating. the party's
attitude on liquor. but this does not
mean that the party is going wet.

Farm Notes.

During the past few weeks several
kinds of cut worms and army worms
hove been very numerous in differ.
ent sections of Monroe county at
we'll as in other counties. l am re-
ceiving great many-inquiries ask
ing for methods to combat the pest.
At present the worms do not seem
to be raging as rapidly as they were
a few days ago. A great number OF
the worms are being devoured by
the natural enemies. Perhaps they
will be reduced to such extent that
they will not do much damage.
however, the farmer should exam
inc his corn closely and be ready to
| poison them il any sudden. outbreak
should appear. To get the best re-
suits the worms should be poisoned
while they are young, as it takes a
great deal more poison to kill them
after they become nearly grown.
You may use a spray or the busting
method; the spray method seems to
be better if you have a spray. You
may use l 1-2 pounds of arsenate
of lead to so gallons of water. One
pound of paris green will be suffi-
cient for so gallons of water. You
had better use two pounds of lime
with the paris green to make the
solution stick better to the leaves.
A pound of laundry soap will assist
in making the solution stick to the
leaves. For the busting method
you should use eight times as much
air Stacked lime as you do the pow
dered arsenate of lead; you may use
10 times as much air Stacked lime
as -four to one pound of paris green
There is no damage in using the
poison, as very likely all of it will
wash off when the first rain comes.
PLANT FALL IRISH POTATOES.
Everybody should plant a patch
of fall irish potatoes as they are 60
ing to be too high to eat if you do
not raise them
Several are asking if the spring
crop will be all right to plant in the
fall. The spring crop is about as
good as the fall varieties provided
you sprout them before planting.
1t is useless for you eyer to buy seed
potatoes when you can raise them.
The fall planting will make your seed
for spring.
To sprout the potatoes you should
let them dry out three or four days
after digging and then spread them
about three layers deep on the
ground under a shed where it is cool
and cover them with old sacks or
straw. You should keep this moist
but not two wet.
You may plant from the 18th of
July till the 18th August. but it is
best to plant about the 1st of Aug |
ust.
You may use cotton seed meal |
and acid phosphate in equal pro
portion. Never use stable manure
without using some acid phosphate |
