SENATOR TRAMMELL
SWEPT THE STATE
All Representatives Reelected, And
Kukiux Klan Seems to Have Cap
tured Volusia County

Jacksonville, June 7-(Associated
Press ALI members of Congress
apparently are renominated by large
majorities, according to the latest
figures compiled early today by, the
Times-Union. Trammell is leading
Gilchrist by approximately three to
one. Available returns from forty
odd counties showed a close race be-
tween Campbell, Eaton and Bowden,
for Campbell's place on the railroad
commission.
In Volusia county the so-called Ku-
klux Klan ticket made virtually a
clean sweep, according to the DeLand
News, electing a state senator, both
representatives, county judge, at
least two of the five county commits
sioners and candidates for minor of
fees.
One of the two women candidates
for the legislature apparently is de-
feated, and the fate of the other is in
doubt. w. T. Hendry is leading Miss
Myrtice McCaskill for the House. In
Pinellas county, Mrs. Katherine B.
Tippets, running for the House, was
second in three-cornered race. The
leading candidate did not have a ma
jority on the face of virtually COM
! plete returns and a count of the Sec
ond choice votes will be necessary.
TRAMMELL'S LEAD INCREASES
Additional returns this forenoon
served only to increase the lead of
Trammell over Gilchrist. Only a few
counties are complete. Pinellas coun-
ty gave Trammell 1886 and Gilchrist
387; Dade, Trammell, 1855, Gilchrist,
1925. Throughout the Third district
Sears majority over MacWilliams for
Congress was increased.
WAS A BAD DAY FOR WOMEN
Mrs. Julia Turner was defeated for
county registration officer in Marion,
and Jennie Allgood was defeated for
school commissioner in Leon. Stokes
and Fillingim are running closely for
state senator from Escambia, altho'
the indications last night were that
Stokes would be defeated. Through
out the Fourth congressional district
Representative Smithwith is piling up
a majority against Hancock.
JENNIE JOINS JULIA
Jennie Ketchum, candidate for the
board of public instruction in Monroe
county, was defeated nearly two tc
one by Millard Gibson.
DUvAL DID ITS DUTY
With only five precincts in Duval
missing Trammell has 5765 and Gil
christ 2679. The missing precincts
have a total registration of 335. Fol
Congress Sears is leading MacWill'
Jams by 1900 votes. The defeat Of
Bryan Jennings for the legislature by
A. Y. Milan is assured.
SOON BE OUT OF SIGHT
Returns compiled at l p. m. by the
Jacksonville Journal and other state
newspapers served only to increase
the lead of Trammell, Frank Clark
Sears and Smithwick. The three
cornered race for the railroad commits
sion between Campbell, Eaton ant
Bowden was still close at that hour.

TO EXPERIMENT WITH
THE BOIL WEEVIL

The Southern Cotton Oil company
and The Virginia-C Carolina Chemical
Company have decided to establish
eight experiment stations in South
Carolina for combating the boil
weevil. One of the stations will be
at Abbevlle.
The plan to be carried out is to
procure four farmers near town who
for the purpose of experiments, will
be willing to plant and cultivate ten
acres Of cotton, five acres of which
the two companies will poison with
calcium arsenate and the other five
acres Of which will not be so poison
ed. The two sections of five acres
each r to be on lands as nearly
the same in soil and fertility as pos
sible, and The methods of cultivation
are to be exactly the same, except
that in the n case the poison is to
be applied and the other it is not.
In this way, it will be determined,
just what is to be gained by poison
ing, the yield from the two sections
to be kept separate for this purpose.
The plan should mean a great
deal to the farmers here. These cor
porations will have improved ma
chinery for applying the poison and
will themselves furnish the calcium
arsenate, keeping a strict account of
the matter Of labor, the amount of
poison, the wear and tear on ma
chinery and other costs, 50 that def
mite information may be given to
those who desire to plant cotton in
the future.
In addition the farmers who have
not had experience will learn by OBJ
s~ervation the proper methods of
farming in boil weevil infested areas
as we'll as the practical way of doing
the work of poisoning.
The establishment of the station
h2t7 Mau1d mean a great deal to
the farmers Of Abbeville County.

CORN AND HOGS.

The Atlanta Constitution gives US
the information that the people in
the Western section of the country
who have large amounts of corn for
sale, and which corn has not been
bringing them a proper return when
sold, have had purchasers in Georgia
buying up all the hogs possible. These
hogs are shipped by the purchasers
to the West and there fattened on
the cheap corn, and next spring the
meat will be reshipped South and
sold to those farmers here who are
either too short-sighted or too triaing
as farmers to produce their own meat
on the farms.
This information should cause the
thinking farmers to 60 to thinking.
If the Western farmer can buy hogs
in Georgia, ship them many hundreds
of miles, tatten them and reship the
: hogs, converted into meat, and make
money by so doing, why may not the
farmers in Georgia and South Caro-
lima make money out of hog raising
and the sale of meat?
It will be said of course that the
Western farmer makes his cor at
less cost than does the Southern far
mer. If he does, is it not a fact that
he makes it at less cost because he
goes at it in a proper way, farms &C
cording to modern methods, uses
brains and energy along with the
plow, and thus makes a big yield? It
is true too that the Western farmers
have fine grain lands, but are these
lands better for grain than are the
lands in the Western section Of Alb
beville County? Will not the Flat
woods lands of Abbeville County
make as good corn as the lands in.
any of the Western states? We are
inclined to think so, that is if our
lands receive the same intensive,
thoughtful cultivation. Certainly the
matter Of freight on the hogs from
this section to the West and the re-
turn freight on the meat should be
sufficient to take are Of the differ
ence in yield as well as the difference
in expense of producing, if indeed
we cannot make corn cheaper than
the farmer of the West.

Something to
Think Ab0ut
FAR-OFF TOMORROW

THOSE happy-gO-lucky individuals
i who manifest so little interest in
the stirring events Of life. which are
buzzing like bees all around them, are
often insensible to their lamentable de
linquencies.
Occasionally, however, their con
sciousness flutters a moment, but
seemingly changing its benumbed
mind, yawns. mods and falls asleep to
dream.
But they are going to wake up and
do something tomorrow.
They will yank the old world from
its easy chair and wake its billion in
habitants with an earthquake.
Hitherto they have been shaping a
brilliant course, not quite matured yet,
or in a fit state TO be presented in its
entirety to their lntimates, who have
wept over them, prayed for them, and
done their utmost to arouse them to
action.
There Is, however, no declaration on
the part of these habituated drones OF
making undue haste.
The months and years stretch ahead
in long rows on either side of tomOr
rows path. Why fuss, fluster and
worry?
Why should they bother themselves
while youth is so full of delightful ex.
pectancies and time so abundant.
They are not seeking the dull, com,
mon roads in life, but TIE magnificent
avenues that take direct to fame and
wealth in the glare of sunlight and
amid the plaudlt' OF an admlrng
world, swept suddenly Off its feet by
the daring work Of genius.
SO the years drift by, and in their
drifting there comes sometimes to
these disciples of the god of futurists
petrlfying fear that makes them sick
at heart.
With an odd mixture of humility and
pride stirring In their ill-arranged
brain they are prompted to exertion.
But they have unconsciously lost the
skill which was theirs when life wad
vibrant with power. They reach out
but they touch not, And now, all OF
n sudden, n terrible realization over
whelms them.
While they were lettering, putting
off until tomorrow, their ploddlng as.
sociates were improving their time
gaining respect and an assured com
petence for the bare days of winter
sighting its appearance in the naked
branches of the trees and drifts OF
snow-fakes.
Tomorrow Is mans most terrible
trouble maker, Turing by promises
which are seldom redeemed and leav
ing him ragged and alone at the cross
roads, where youth and opportunity
lie buried in the piled up heaps o.
dust and ill-spent years.

WRITING 1T AT HOME

A BUNCH OF four-four happy kids
"A Chock fun of fun and pleasure.
All four n mighty big expense,
But ev'ry one treasure.
And when | want it quiet lik,
So | can do my writing,
The noise that bunch begins TO make
Sounds like two armies fighting.
One Chambers over my machine;
One asks for help with numbers;
One for my pencil makes demand;
One my tired knee encumbers.
"A dozen eggs cost forty cents,
what will three dozen costl"
And by the time | work Il out
My thread OF thought is lost.
One sticky hand is reaching out
To grasp my thinning locks.
One piercing voice makes loud demand
For help with building blocks.
MY pencils broke; please sharpen 1t
So can write the rest"
And then the thoughts I've garnered in
Are all knocked gally west
But when, nj last, the sandman comes
And All four little heads
Are resting on the pillows white
or two soft, downy beds;
And all Is quiet round the house
Where once the noise did ring,
| start to write-and then can't think
Of "a dodgaStpd thing
