in fiction. The valuable critical work

the single exception of the best of
Dunbar's poems it can hardly be
claimed that he has as yet found any
adequately speaking voice among his
own people. He has shown talent,
even flashes of genius, but he is not
yet fully able to speak for himself.
There is nothing surprising in that:
we are asking a good deal of him if

they are excellent in many ways.
They show the same wistful, gentle
melancholy that marks his verse.
The best is .'The Sport of the Gods"
Dunbar is not belligerent, and he is
usually dealing with the tragedy of
the individual soul rather than with
that of the race-the lost, wander
ing soul that is somehow out of
place, meaning and yearning to do
right and helplessly entangled in
web of injustice. Dunbar is often
profoundly tear starting. but he is
not visibly getting anywhere. Life
remains an insoluble enigma. It is,
possibly. significant that he had no

highly significant that each book is
the work of a young Southern
writer: it is not by accident that
such literature comes out of the new

and perhaps a hopeful promise for
the future.

plant, from which it can be disting-
ulshed by the cluster of tuberous
roots, which are quite different from
the single fleshy root of the parsnips.
water hemlock grows in moist places
only, such as along streams and ditch
es and in marshy meadows.
The water hemlock is not a diff
cult weed to destroy. The young
plants may be pulled out bodily in
the spring following rain, when the
ground is soft. Make certain that all
the roots have been removed Older
plants should be grubbed out, taking
care not to allow the plants to lay
around where stock can get at them
Another interesting result of the
Clinton county survey was the finding
of white snakeroot, a very dangerous
poison plant, on the farm of Russell
Allen in Perry Township, and on the
farm of Bruce Brant, Frankfort, r. R.
3. The plant caused the death of two
heifers and eight sheep on Mr. Aliens
farm and twelve sheep on Mr. Brant's
farm. Deaths from milk sickness, a
| human disease caused by drinking
milk from COWS poisoned by the
| snakeroot, have occurred compare
| lively recently in Clinton county.
Want Muscle Shoals Developed
The American farm bureau wants
to see Muscle Shoals fully developed.
In an interview with J. R Howard
that official says: I'VE care not for
the Ford offer because of Henry Ford
We stand firm, however for the ac.
ceptance of his proposal because it is
the only one made after long contin.
ued waiting that is acceptable. If
anything better were in sight we
would forget Ford and be for it; but
there isn't"
! Because of the statement being
made in certain circles that ''large
national organization is polling candi
dates for congress on their attitude
toward Mr. Ford, and because it wa:
thought that this was being done a
the instance of the American farm bu
reau, President Howard denies this
as follows:
I'VE are not polling candidates fo
congress On the Ford offer or any
:. other issue. 1t is not our purpose
to inject politics in any agriculture
or economic issue. To unduly at
tempt to pledge candidates before
their election on any subject or t.
coerce them afterward would b.
folly What can't be accomplished
on merit will be left undone.".

CHICAGO. Aug. 29-Wheat was
weak all day There was a good class
of buying early in the session on the
breaks headed by houses with eastern
connections, but the demand was soon
filled and the market continued to sag.
Canadian news was bearish, there be-
ing evidence that the enormous crop
from that section was beginning to
move eastward rapidly. There was
some export business under way but
was mostly Manitobas. Although
there was some business in domestic
worked via the gulf. Liverpool was
lower and continued to sag all day
There were also some reports of re-
selling at 712 under American prices.
The absence of outside demand
counted heavily against the market
all day. Primary receipts today ex-
ceeded last year due to the increased
movement in the northwest. Cash
wheat here about one cent lower
There was considerable liquidation

out and at no time was the December

easier to trade the selling than the
buying. Reports of dry weather con-
tinued to come in, but the weather is
cool
Oats showed considerable strength
in view of the weakness in other
grains. but amount of business was
light and prices held within a narrow
range. There was buying of Septem-
Der against sales of December at ~

season. Commission houses and locals

CULL|NG OF POULTRY
BEGINS WEDNESDAY

Poultry culling demonstrations for
the county will start Wednesday fore
noon with a demonstration arranged
on Will Wright's farm, near Fountain
City, at $50 o'clock, standard time,
An intensive demonstration campaign
will follow during the next two weeks,
with meetings arranged for both fore
noon and afternoon in most cases, so
that the campaign can be finished be-
fore the fair.
Local chairmen, appointed by the
township farm bureaus, are arranging
demonstrations in all communities in
terested in poultry culling, and where
a sufficient number of flock owners
can be located in any community, with
desire for a demonstration, opportu-
nifty will be given them to attend
one or more within a short distance.
Loafers Discarded.
Hens that are shown to be '1oafers"
and placed on the market at this time,
will bring a price three or four cents
a pound higher than later, when culls
usually are sold. Long distance" lay
ers are still at work at this time,
while the short time" workers have
quit for the season, and can easily be
detected and weeded out.
Results after last years campaign,
when culled birds were kept for a
week and their egg production noted,
showed in every case, only negligible
receipts from the rejected hens. On
the other hand, although from fourth
to a third of the whole flock was
culled out in many cases, there was
hardly any decrease in the total egg
production.
