St. Louis, Mo., Aug. 21.—Major Mitchell, of Iona, Mich., who bas been in conference with Lieut. C. Sid- dew Haight, military aids to Presi- dent Francis, of the World’s Fair, today announced thatarrangements had been completed for the national encampment of Modern Woodmen Foresters, which takes place on the World’s Fair grounds the week of September 5th-12th, inclusive. The World’s Fair authorities some time ago agreed to offer drill prizes aggregating $5,000 in cash for the encampment, and for the Foresters ofthe M. W. of A., Major General Mitchell has agreed to bring into camp a body of at least 5,000 of the best drilled men in the United States. Barracks and extensive parade and drill grounds have been set aside by the World’s Fair for the Foresters. Chief Quartermaster P. 'T. Anderson, of Rockford, Ill, is now perfecting arrangements for the entertainment of Foresters. Besides being privileged to see the World’s Fair from the inside, free of expense, the Foresters will have free barracks and free baths, with a com- missary which will not be permitted to charge more than 25c for meals served to in Foresters in uniform. Allthe tentage and barrack room owned by the exposition will be util- ized in caring for the Foresters, and aconvention hall, large enough to accommodate 1,000 cote, will also Indianapolis, Iud, Aug. 20.—Cap- tain Hobson of Merrimac fame is here tonight. He condemns President Roosevelt as being largely respon- \ sible for the recent race troubles in ] the South. He says: “The wave of lawlessness in Geor- gia and other states has followed up on the President in forcing the race ' question into the Chicago platform. “The whole unhappy question in the South has grown worse and worse by the course of the Roosevelt ad- ministration, by the flagrant viola- tion of fundimental laws of nature, whether intentional or not. “The accepted interpretation of osevelt’s position means negro domination where negroes are in the majority, or a return of the unhappy conditions of the reconstruction era. “The entire country should recog- nize that untold injury is being done i by our President, who has disturbed H the happiness of millions of the citi- zens of both races when they come * together, producing, by his attitude, increasing crime by negroes and hid- eous lawlessness by whites. . “It the president wishes to open the door of hope to the negro so thatthe trustworthy ones may participate fn *. ‘the governmental affairs of thenation he should recognize that this menace of negro domination must be remov- ed. ‘I will devote my efforts to bring: ing about peaceful harmony and mutual helpfulness between the two races.

No Pity Sho 0 0 ALS) SSSSSSSSSSSOSSSS SSSSSSSESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS9 oSoS 0 Sooo : YOSSSS Seed Wheat. Original experiments by the Uni- versity of Missouri with eighty vari- eties of wheat show that the annual yield of this grain in Missouri might be Increased more than 2,000,000 bushels {f the farmers of the state would-give more attention to the selection of seed. Prof. I’. B. Mun- ford, acting dean of the agricultural department, under whose direction the experiments have been performed, says: “A large number ofaccurate éxper- iments show conclusively that large plump grains of wheat always give larger and more vigorous plants and a better yield thansmall grains. One farmer who at the request of the college screened his wheat, sowing only the larger grains for several years, thus increased his yield five bushels an acre. On the state farm where the experiments have been under the immediate direction of the college a similar increase has been apparent in almost every case where we have used full, plump grains for seed. These results agree almost exactly with those secured by the Tennessee experiment station which jfound that Poole wheat grown from jlarge grains yielded twenty-seven ‘bushels an acre, whiie the same va- ‘riety from small grain yielded only i twenty-two and six-tenths bushels. | Most of the large grains are produced ‘in large, vigorous heads, containing many kernels and thus follows that selecting large grains for seed results Hin selecting them from the most pro- | | ductive heads. The simplest method of selecting the largest seed is to screen out the ‘ anma us n. “Por years after me continuously” writes F. A.
