among the defendants and listening to their whispered conversations"
 Judge Clarence w. Sessions an nounced that hereafter the front seats would be reserved for the defendants and that others would have to find places after the men on trial had se- lected places He would not issue a formal order against the presence of the secret service men who Mir. Lit tleton said were mot invited to sit among the defendants"
 While Mir. pailey was speaking the defense, by objections, prevented him from reading what he said was a copy of telegram sent from Detroit to Mir Newberry when the latter was in New York on naval duty.
 The prosecutor thereupon para phrased the message and said the evil dence would prove that it had been sent.
 Throughout the address MT. Daley stressed the money which the govern ment alleges was spent in violation of the law limiting campaign expenses. He said Milton Oakman was hired as manager of the Detroit campaign lat an enormous and staggering salary amounting to thousands of dollars" He charged that when the campaign start ed the Newberry organization "1aunched into an orgy of spending" and spoke of great heaps and piles of currency which he said were visible at the De- troit and Grand Rapids headquarters.
 The evidence will show" he shouted, that this organization spent more money on an average every forty ht hours than the laws of the United States permit for an entire campaign. It will show that the defendants boast cd that they would make Truman H. Newbery the best known man in Michi- gan"
 The prosecutor used big map of Michigan to Illustrate "the way in which the state was parceled out among the field agents" and also to show the jury which defendants came from each county in the state. Attor- neys Murfn, Littleton and Nichols of the defense watched this proceedin g closely and occasionally helped the prosecutor pronounce some of the names.

GROUNDHOG FAILS TO SEE
 HIS SHADOW YESTERDAY

If the old wiseacres had added an amendment to the groundhog supersti- tion and said something about the ec- centric animal getting his back wet. sub sequent with dire misgivings about the weather we are due to have. this section would rival some sections in France where it rains nine and three-quarters days out of ten
 There wasn't chance for the ground hog or any other kind of hog to observe his shadow yesterday, for Old Sol had evidently decided that this section of ours had about enough cold weather.
 Taking the superstition for what it is worth, this old country will have various and divers weather in the different sec tions.
 For instance, the sun didn't shine in ! Jefferson county and the superstl- tion says spring is near. But there are

mo reports from Montgomery county or even our close neighbor, Walker county. Suppose the groundhog saw his shadow
 in either of these counties, and crawled back in his hole for another six weeks, why there would be winter in Walker and Montgomery, while the people of this, our county, would be enjoying the balmy spring.
 What a great difference this would make insthe two peoples. While the poets in this county would be spinning out thei; verses as they strolled among the verdure of the hills, the citizens down in either of the other counties would be cussing the janitor for not keeping enough heat in the furnace.
 It's a great superstition, but neverthe- less it worked favorably for Birmingham and Jefferson county, and soon spring bonnets and lightweight suits will be in evidence along the highways and houle- wards

SHOULD IMPROVE
 SEED MARKETING

has resulted in tendency 10 cause purchase of increasing quantities of early maturing varieties from non-in- fested territory. More or less local damage annually by continued wet weather during the harvest period me- cessitates obtaining seed for planting from other sections. Growing inter- est in and demand for improved strains and varieties by farmers is another factor.
 SEEDSMEN SUPPLY 17 PER CENT
 Approximately 93,000 tons, or IT per cent of the total planting require ment is obtained from seedsmen, cot tonseed oil mills, cotton sin operators and small local dealers. Seedsmen handle about S0,000 tons of that. Un- der the present system of handling cotton seed on the average farm and at public gins, the department says, very little pure seed of any variety or strain is available. Standard commer- cial varieties of cotton sold for plant ing purposes number less than forty, while the number of variety names used in exploiting the business dur ing recent years Is well over 600. The practice of remaining varieties has been abused in some instances to the extent that the variety name serves little more than to advertise or identify the seller, the departments report de- clares.
 Some dealers and growers make ex- travaSant claims about the merits of the particular variety of cotton seed they offer for sale" the report con- tinuos. Tn some cases the claims are gross misrepresentation and are never sustained except under the most favor able conditions or by the sacrifice of other important features. A policy more advantageous for the dealer and the grower, as well as for the indirect improvement of the cotton industry, would be a clear statement of the ex- act conditions under which the claims were sustained, together with the probable outcome under average field conditions. No one feature should be emphasized so prominently that others equally important to the farmer might be overlooked"
 Delinting of cotton seed for planting purposes is being followed in very few instances, although it has been advo- cated by some of the state agricul- tural experiment stations in the south It has proved & practically success from the standpoint of both dealers and farmers wherever it has been tried. It is of prime importance in improving the quality of the seed, causing them to germinate more quickly and to produce better stand
 If delinters were installed in cus- tom gins, farmers might have the cot ton seed which they had selected to be used or sold for planting purposes delinted during the ginning process at very little additional cost. More than se,oeo,0e0 pounds of linters, valued al S1, ze0, 900, which at the present time is wasted, would be saved.

SPECIAL ELECTION
Town of Eagle River to Vote
May 18th Whether We
Will Better Equip Power
Plant.

The question to confront the
electors and legal voters of the
town of Eagle River on May u,
will be whether they want the
town to properly equip its mum
icipal power plant in order to
care for the increased business,
or whether the towns people
will desire to 60 along in the
present dangerous, haphazard
condition-until something puts
the whole plant out OF commits
sion.
There is no doubt but that the
voters will sanction the town
bonding itself in the sum of
$1,000 for a new water wheel
and a new generator at the Otter
Rapids power plant. And they
should to a man make it a 100
percent vote for the bond issue.
Every citizen taxpayer realizes
the necessity of further equippirg
the plant with other machinery,
lessening the danger of the old
giving away, and putting us out
of commission for at least six
months. This means every resi-.
dence would be without lights.
water, and fire protection-back
to the old DAYS OF tin bucket bri-
gades in case of fire and polluted
wells furnishing water for the
homes. And shat isn't all the
discomforts you would be up
against either.
AT present we have a greater
demand for power than can be
furnished by the plant with its
present equipment. There is alb
solutely no doubt but the light
and water commission will more
than take care Of the bonds as
they mature BY the increa sed new
business.
We need a new wheel and gen
orator for our own protection,
and the voters should make it a
100 percent vote for the bond is
sue.
