NO WONDER EDEN PARK

Compelled to Subsist on Con-
crete Instead Of Special
Oil Diet.

The wooden rams OF Eden Park,
which are known better, perhaps, than
any other two animals In the city.
or the state, came up for discussion
at the meeting Of the Park Board yes
terday afternoon.
The reason FOR their declining con-
stitu,ion was made apparent. 1t seems
that when the animals were first made,
their creator. looking forward to the
time when the elements would begin

prevent this. He bored two holes
about two inches IN diameter. and
about -<Vkht inches, in depth. in the
middle OF their backs. These he plan
ned to fiil with oil prepared In such
manner as 70 preserve the wood
which is white pine.

found necessary 10 make repairs tC
the animals, and one OF the wood doc
tcrs. in an effort TO make his repairs
permanent. Alled in sll the worn parts
with concrete. While doing this hi
also filed in the holes with the same

Board members that the lives CT tn

thing in his power TO either repai

or concrete copies. Several offers hav

Little Creek, Oct 14.-No farmer
has ever benefited by any tariff>legis-
lation enacted by the present national
administration, although the Repubi-
can party shouts far and near that
the legislation would provide a boom
for the farmers of the nation, Thomas
+. Bayard. nominee for United States
Senator on the Democratic ticket, de-
clared last night at large meeting
Of voters in Little Creek.
The applause which greeted Mr..
Bayards remarks indicated that his
audience, composed almost in its en-
tirety of farmers, heartily indorse his
attack on the administration which
10 all appearances violated in every
way its pledges made before 1t was
seated in Washington.
Former Judge William II. Boyce,
nominee on the Democratic ticket for
Congress another leading speaker at
the meeting urged upon the voters the
great necessity of registering October
Fl and voting at the fall election. If
they wished to "rebuke and defeat an
extravagant, wastefui and inefficient
administration which treated theiI
promises as scraps of paper
In his address Mr. Bayard cited the
old emergency tariff which was
projected as n protection for the
Farmer. especially the grower of wheat
and set a good price of $3.50 bushe
for his wheat. The result of this PRO
tective" measure, Mr.. Bayard pointed
.l,A
great difficulty in getting even 81 fol
his crop.
This tariff" he continued. was al
\ big bluff, the same as this nc-- ides
of the administration, the Fordney
and McCumber tariff bill just enacted
The farmer never did benefit by thi:
emergency tariff and the administra
ton never intended that they should
benefit by il. 1t was enacted as {
blind 10 cover the eyes of the farmer
voter"
He then turned the spotlight upoi
the new tariff bill. which fixed heav,
duty on the importation OF corn ant
wheat. He laid special etress upol
the fact that the annual importation
OF corn from outside the United State
amounts TO less than one ear Of cprl
for every bushel raised here.
This shows that the heavy impor
duty on corn would not aid I'll
American farmer" he said. "Thi
duty is one of the many jokers place
in the new tariff bill to deceive III
farmer and lead him TO believe tina
the Republicans are aiding him
keeping out foreign competition. TIL
duty placed on wheat is another joke
Europe is crying for wheat today an
therefore what is the use Of placing
duty on wheat when Europe cannC
send us any.
1T is true that we import a ema
quantity from the Argentine and
little larger amount from Canada, b,
that does not matter. The farm,
today is getting less for his whe:
than ever before. Even if the farm,
did benefit by few cents on eaC

THOSE PLAGUEY MOSQUITOES

A plague of mosquitoes is the pre-
diction of Percy Viosca, who is the
president Of the Southern Biological
Congress. This plague is to come in
the southern part of this State in the
month of March, and it behooves~u us to
prepare for it in any event.
The summer days are coming and
with them will come the dread pest.
Would it not be wise for us to prepare
to combat the evil now before the hot
days Gomez 1t can be done if we will
each do our part.
There is but one way to fight the
mosquito-that is to get them in their
breeding places. Every small pool OF
water is a breeding place for them,
and as they must come to the surface
for air, little oil on the water will
kill this effort and they die. 1t is es-
timated that the cost of oil for this
purpose is about one cent to the square
yard of water surface. 1t is almost i'm
possible to fight the adult mosquito,
hence we must get him before he grows
and drainage is the best plan of all;
it should be used in larger bodies of
water. Where there is no opportunity
for drainage, then they should be
stocked with minnows. There are many
kinds of minnows. and we are told that
our Uncle Sam will supply the right
breed of minnows free.
But the school children should be
enlisted in a mosquito brigade and be
supplied with crude oil for that pur-
pose, and every place where water is
found should be sprinkled with oil. The

vation. The four acres just cleared he
will plant to some legume for hog pas
ture, as he is making a specially Of
Duroc- Jersey hogs. He now has about
five well-fattened hogs for the market
Just north of the house is a small field
of spring oats just coming up, and
south of the house is an acre of pecans
that are thriving well.
This is a fair example Of what can
be done with Vernon's Cut-over lands.
If we had few more Mr.. Carpenters,
