Why They Leave.
Mae Cooper,
G. Il, d. A

why did you leave the farm my
lad?
Why did you balk and leave your
dad?
Why did you beat it off to town
And turn your poor old father down?
Thinkers of the platform, pulpit
and press,
Are wallowing in deep distress,
They seek to know the hidden cause
Why farmer boys desert their pas"
We'll stranger since you've been
so frank,
I'll roll aside this lazy bank;
| left ny dad his farm, his plow,
Because my calf became his cow.
| left my dad twas wrong of course,
Because my colt became his horse.
| left my dad to SOW and reap.
Because my lamb became his sheep.
/ dropped the hoe and struck the
fork,
Because my pig became his pork
The garden truck that | made grow
Was his to sell but mine to hoe.
Its the smoke in the atmosphere,
Nor the taste for life that brought
me here,
Please tell the pulpit platform press
No fear of toll nor love of dress,
Is drawing off the farmer lads,
It's just the method of their dads
Selected.

Notes from Our Home
Demonstration, Agent.
How To Make Baskets.

| have had Several requests fol
information about making honey
suckle vine baskets most people
call them flower baskets.
The vines that run along the
ground are best, gather the vines,
remove the leaves and place vines
in vessel cover with cold water
and place on the stove and boil
for about 2 hours. Be sure and
have plenty Of water in the vessels
go that the vines will be covered
with water. After boiling for 2
hours take the vines and strip off
the bark by drawing through
coarse cloths which are held in each
hand, They are then ready 10 be
coiled and put away until needed.
The vines can be used the
same in weaving as the german
reed and the baskets are beautiful
made OF native hon eysuckle vines.
| will give a demonstration in

soon as we can complete the enroll
ment campaign,

FIGHT BREAKS

al Committee
ADAMS IN DEFENSE
Increased Representation to
Southern State May Bring
Convention Fight

Washington, Dec. IA H.-Indications
are becoming clearer that the Re-
publican national convention may be-
come the scene of sharp fight over
the national committees action in
restricting the delegate strength of
southern states in its unexpected re-
vision this week of reapportionment
figures.
This trend first developed during
the committees discussion of the
question became more marked today
with publication of statements by
Senator Johnson of California, a can
didate for the presidential nomina-
tion, and Chairman John r. Adams
Of the committee attacking and de-
Tending the action.
While it has not been determined
whether the johnson organization
will fight the southern delegate res
toration on the floor of the convcn-
tion. Senator Howell Of Nebraska,
who opposed tho revision at the
committee meeting, holds the reopen
ing the question was without author
ity and has expressed the belief that
if brought before the convention tho
decision would be set aside.
Senator Johnson, in his statement
characterizes the revision as an act
by which "thc Republican states are
pcnalized" and "thc southern states
where there is no Republican party
and where delegations sometimes are
a farce and a scandaLare rewarded.
The resolution Of the national con-
vention HAS been disregardcd, the
will of the Republicans of the party
haunted," he said.

FOR SPECIAL ELECTION
No Method Provided Under
New Laws, Which Are
Referred, They Say

Possible complications which may
arise out of the referendum on cleo
tion laws passed by the last lcgisla-
turc arc being pointed to by officials
who have made an examination of
the election laws of the state, parti-
cvlarly as they are affected by the
new laws. Discussion Of the possi-
bility of special election in the
event of the resignation of Congress
man George Young added impetus to
the discussion.
The referred measures include: !:
House bill No. 2S5, relating to the
nomination and election Of presiden-
tial electors, United States Senators.

men, delegates to the national con-
ventions and precinct committeeman
Senate bill No. 1888, relating to the
nomination and election of state and
county officials, and house bill No.
| 282, relating to state and county cen
trail committees.
Secretary of State Thomas Hall
and Deputy Secretary Maurice Duffy
say that under existing laws if q
special election were called on March
18 to select successor to George NJ
Young, nominations may be made BY
party delegate conventions under au
thority of the laws Of 1899 and 1905
or by petition under the laws of lS9.
and 1913. The method, they said
was laid down in the Burtness case
by the supreme court.
Since both of the sections referred
to are specifically repealed by hous,
bill No. 285, according to Messrs
Hall and Duffy, the proposed parti
san election law, no provision is lcf
for nominating candidates for specia
elections.
| "The omission has a larger signifi
canoe than its effect on the congress
sional situation" said Mr.. Duffy
4 article 33 of amendments tc tn

of officials, provides that the nam
of the recalled official shall aut0ma
ticslly go on the ballot and othe
candidates for such office may b
nominated in the manner as is pro
vided by law in primary election:
This provision has not been JUDICIAL
constructed but in practice other can
didates have been nominated by pcti
tion. 1t is apparent that they canno

posed laws at primary election

Mr.. Hall believes that no specia
elections could be held if the repes
clauses of the law became effective
