Osborne, presi dent of the New York Democratic league addressed the meeting which was pre ceded by a parade. He said: “Under Woodrow Wilson we have in spiration to wage a campaign like that of 1188 or 1882. Under him Democracy will rule not four years, but 2< yeara. I want to say. however that the Demo cratic party owes a tremendous debt to W. J. Brian.

C, July 2.—An un mistakably Jones crowd greeted the can didates for governor at the speaking here today. That Governor Blease had a strong following among the crowd, however, was evident and that his fol lowers were set on fire with enthusiasm by his speech is also not to be denied. Both Judge Jones and Governor Blease received flowers at the conclusion of their speeches. Two young ladies came for ward to present the judge with his tro phies and a horseshoe emblem of flow ers and white ribbon was sent to the stand for the governor. The attack of Judge Jones on Gover nor Blease for granting certain pardons and the governor's defense thereto fea tured the day. “The governor pardoned Henry Davis, a negro, who killed his father-in-law, near Salters, in your county," said Judge Jones. “Is there anybody here from Salters who signed that petition?" There were criee of “No. No,” amidst cheering for Jones and the waving of hands and handkerchiefs. “I have, no apology for pardoning Henry Davis,” replied the governor, hie voice ringing defiantly. Turning to that part of the crowd whence came the cries he continued, “If I had to go over It again I would do the same thing and if you men out there don't like it you can help yourselves and you can go and vote for Jones.” The governor said that he had not pardoned Davis, but had paroled him upon the condition that he leave the state and never come back. That prom inent citizen* had signed lhe petition among them some of the jurors and they represented that Davis’ parents in Flor ida were aged and needed him for their support. “I thought,” added the gover nor. “that South Carolina was the gain er all round. It had got one negro dead and the' other out of the state.” The judge also cited the pardon of Wash Rawl, convicted of burning the barn of Senator Crosson and of the ne groes convicted of robbing a white man. The governor in reply says that Hawi’s pardon had been recommended by the jury and by the sllcitor and by a very strong petition which was to the effect the wrong negro had been convicted. In the case of the three negroes the gov ernor showed that clemency had been urged by Judge D. E. Hydrlck. the trial fbtfge and thd then solicitor, Christie Bennet, who he said was now Judge Jones' campaign manager in Richland FARMERS INSTITUTE HELD AT SHELLMAN SHELLMAN, Ga, July 3.—A farmers' institute was held here Monday by the people of Shellman and'the representa tives sent out by the State College of Agriculture. Despite the Inclement weath er, a number of farmers came out to listen to the talks on corn growing, de struction of harmful insects, etc. mate Interests. His fight was strenu ous and at times bitter, but the circum stances under which the nomination was finally made augur well for party harmony. AH candid observers will ad mit this and congratulate the conven tion on a 'happy ending.’ ” South Dakota Refuses To Indorse Mr, Taft (By Associated Presa.) HURON. S. D, July 3.—Every effort of the Taft forces in the Republican state convention last night to secure an indorsement of the Taft candidacy or to instruct the five electors for him was futile. The electors are untnstructed. The progressives controlled the con vention. which is among the first state Republican conventions to be held since the Republican national convention. N, Y. Republican Club Indorses President Taft (By Aasociatad Preu.) NEW YORK. July 3.—The Republican club of this city at a special meeting last night passed a resolution “heartily approving the platform adopted and the nominations by the Republican national convention” and pledging “its untiring efforts during the coming campaign to promote the reelection of President Taft and Vice President Sherman." The club will hold a ratification meet ing a fortnight hence. Ovation for Cark as He Enters the House Associated Press.) WASHINGTON. July 3.—When Speak er Clark, showing the effect of the strain under which he has labored during the Democratic convention, entered the house today he was given an ovation that last ed for "several minutes. When Representative Underwood, of Alabama, appeared the cheering and ap plause was resumed. Members pounded their desks and the southern contingent addded to the noise by their shrill "rebel yells.” THE ATLANTA SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL, ATLANTA, GA., FRIDAY, JULY 5, 1912. them at home and Interest them in some way can do nothing better than to start them off with a few bantams or a setting of eggs from something attractive in this line. The later in the season you can raise bantams, naturally the smaller they will be and most of the best specimens are raised during the sum mer months. There is one thing about the raising of bantams that a per son should remember, and that is that they should be kept dry. In a well lighted sunny house or room is the best place they can be raised and should be kept there until after they are feathered good. Many a child will be interested In these little birds when they will take no interest whatever In some other things. They are light, easy to handle and one can send by express and at a small cost a large rtring of these birds to the different shows and usually there are good premiums offered at all the leading slwws on bantams. Years ago there vara quite a number of bantams bred'in the south, more than there is at present. Where there are several large breeders of bantams now, there should be hundreds of them, as many people in the cities could keep a nice flock of them on a small space where there is not enough room to keep fowls o the larger varieties. At the coming Southern International Poultry Association Show a prominent bantam fancier will have entire control of the bantam depart ment and special judges will be engaged for this department and it will be one of the most Interesting features connected with the show. While bantams are only used for fancy, pets and entertainment they still can be made very profitable and many breeders have made consider- rt- able money breeding these little birds. *** • 1 Yours very truly, (F > Milltown, Ga. —I see In The Serai- Weekly Journal where you say that hog cholera can be prevented by the use of medicine put up by the state, but you did not say where a man could get It. I would be glad to know where I could get this rem edy. as I have a large bunch of hogs and want to prevent them from having hog cholera. I would be glad If you would send me the name of the medicine and where I can buy some and what the cost would be. You may write me or answer it through the paper, as I am a subscriber to The Atlanta Semi-Weekly Journal. Hoping to hear from you by mall or through The Journal, yours very truly, ' H. G. RADFORD. answer. The hog cholera serum can be had of Mulford & Ce., Sharp & Dohme, or Dr. P. F. Bahnsen, At lanta, at actual cost It will cost about 25 cents to 50 cents per head, according to size, for thin,medicine. Dr. Bahnsen can give you informa tion on this subject. Monroe. Ga. —Having long since been a subscriber to The Journal, and appreciate your articles on poul try, will give my experience. I am a farmer and keep chickens for general use. I have 30 hens and three cocks. They consist of Par tridge Cochin, Plymouth Rocks, Buff Orpingtons, some Brown Leg horns, and some with no name at all—a general mixture of these strains—and there probably Isn’t a pure bred fowl In the flock. They have free range of the yard and or chard, and I feed them only corn and scraps from the table. I know this is contrary to your line of writ ing. You will call my fowls scrubs, and maybe they are, but they lay the year around, and since Februa ry 1 have sold 30 dozen eggs, have 175 baby chicks and eight hens set ting. Have beat some of my neigh bors with pure bred stock that they paid fancy prices for. Now, do you think pure bred fowls would do better under the same condi tions? Do you think fancy prices could be secured for pure bred fowls or eggs of such stock without exten sive advertising? Yours respect fully, ' F. H. ANSWER. You have done well with your chickens, and continue your method of care. Usually everyone has their own way of doing things, and as long as they succeed there is no use to change. As a rule, well-bred thorough breds will do much better than scrubs, but often high-grades that have been properly raised and bred up from good stock will do better than thoroughbreds that have de generated or thoroughbreds that have not had the proper breeding behind them. It is almost impos sible to get fancy prices for thor oughbreds of any kind unless you can prove to the buyers that they have the quality, have been bred right and you have enough experi ence to give your customers value received and stock worth the mon ey before you can command fancy prices. Naturally, the better repu tation your stock has, the better prices you can get for it. It re quires advertising, showing, and to continually push your business be fore you can command and receive fancy prices for stock, but If you have the goods and let the people know it, you can secure good prices for anything in the shape of live stock or poultry. QUESTION. Stone Mountain, Ga.—l want to ask you a little advice. I have some Indian Runner ducks that be gan to lay the middle of March and did fine until a week ago. They be gan to eat their eggs. They eat them as soon as they are dropped, and seem to be crazy about them. Since they have begun to eat their eggs they will not eat much of their feed. My ducks have a free range. I pen them at night and turn them out at S» o’clock in the morning. If you can give me a remedy that will stop them from eating their eggs I will appreciate it. Yours truly, J. W. GODDARD. ANSWER. If you will supply your ducks with with plenty oyster shell and grit, and keep a few china nest eggs in the yard where they can get used to them, they will find that they cannot break these eggs, and will not attempt to break their own. Ordinarily they should be satisfied 'with plenty of shell. Rockmart, Ga. —I write you through The Journal to ask advice BANTAMS' THESE handsome little birds have done as much, If not more, towards building up the fancy poultry business and making some of the best fanciers than even the breeding of the larger varieties of chickens. Many .fanciers of today can recall their first beginning In the poultry business with some va riety of bantams. I know a large number of the leading fanciers of the entire country who began their poultry career with these little birds. There are so many different va rieties of bantams that among these different numbers surely anyone can find a variety that will interest them, something that will be fasci nating and often they will draw attention to a person, especially a boy or girl when they would pay no attention whatever to a chicken of the larger varieties. These little birds can be kept on a very small space and as a rule they are very tarn*. People who have children and wish to keep for my hens. I have about 20 hens, mixed Rhode Island Reds and White English Games. Only have two roosters, one White English Game and one Rhode Island Red. For the past three weeks three of my hens have gone to crowing. I have killed three to stop them, and it seems that they crow worse. Will you please let your answer appear in The Bemi-Weekly Jour nal, as I always read the poultry. Yours very truly, MRS. L. B. F. ANSWER. , It will not hurt the hens to erow, neither is it any bad sign. Let them crow all they want to. If the hens are good, do not kill them. Atlanta, Ga. —I have two . hens setting that can’t stand up when • they come off to eat. They totter around and almost fall. I only no ticed it yesterday. They all seemed perfectly well up to tlitot time. They will finish hatching on the Ist and 4th. Is it sbmethiffg contagious, and what is the remedy? *’> What are the best dotting varie ties? I have the Barred Plymouth Roeks and only one of them has set this spring. The two mentioned above I bought after they became broody. An early reply will be greatly ap preciated. MRS. L. A. PERRY. ANSWER. It would be best for you to change the eggs and put them under some other hens that you know positive ly are setting. It is true, the time is short before they will hatch, but it is possible that the hens have be come weak from setting too long, and if you ean get two other set ting hens it would be best to change the eggs. It is not likely to be con tagious. There Is no difference in the setting qualities of any chickens you wish to set. Plymouth Roeks, Reds, Orpingtons and Wyandottes are all good mothers and splendid hens to set. Onee in a while you will find a hen that is a persistent layer, but they sooner or later take their nest and make good setters. . Most of the Mediterranean breeds cannot be depended* upon to set. Dublin, Ga.—Will you please give best plan to cnre alfalfa hay to re ‘ tain its green coloring and the leaves remain on the stems? My alfalfa will soon be ready to cut. Thanking you in advance, I am. WILLIAM KEA. ANSWER. The first cutting of alfalfa is usually hard to cure as there is so much water in it. The best way to cure it is to eut it in the morning after the dew has all thoroughly dried off. Then put in under a shed with a wire floor with at least one foot of circulation under the floor. I have used some heavy wire fencing on top of the sills instead of using planks and find that 1 can pile the alfalfa 3 to 4 feet deep on top of this and put it in the house the same day that it is eut. By doing this it cures all the leaves nice and green and they remain on the stems. If it is eut from 10 to 3 o’clock it should be raked into wind-rows from 2 to 4 o’clock and then hauled directly under a shed. Another good way to cure it so that it will retain its green color is, put a post 8 feet high in the ground deep enough to make it steady and about 1 foot above the ground if a platform ' made of strips 4 feet around this post is made, the alfalfa can be placed on top of this 8 to 8 feet hith around the post. This will let the air circulate through it and it cures out nicely In this way. If there is much grass or weeds in the first cutting you cannot put it quite so deep in the building on the wire floor as the weeds are much harder to cure than the alfalfa. The second, third and fourth cuttings will be much easier to eure than the first one. Pelham, Ga.—Will you please give me some light on raising poultry? My greatest trouble is in raising the little ones from the time they are one week old. They seem strong and all right until about this age, when thej r begin to die. They get vary much soiled about the rectum, as if they had bowel trouble. Don’t know wheth er they have dysintery or are con stipated, but one thing I do know, and that is they are sure to die. , Please tell me what is the matter and what to do? I feed them on cooked cornbread for a week or so, then on baby chiek feed. Also tell me if it is all right to mate a rooster with his offspring? I don't like to buy a rooster evecy year. What is good for corns un der chicken’s fleet? I read what you say about soft mash for chickehs. What is it? When using Aunt Patsey Poultry Food, MEXICAN REBELS LOSE BITTLE; BEGIN BETBEAT Whole Army IS Moving Toward the Border Abandoning Chihuahua to Federals (By Auociatvd ) AT GENERAL OROZCO'S HEAD QUARTERS, Mapula, July 4.—Under cov er of darkness, the entire rebel army withdrew from Bachtmba, a distance of 25 miles north of Mapula, which is but 15 miles below the city* of Chihuahua. The rebels admit their defeat, attrlbutinc it to a lack of ammunition. The whole army early today wps in retreat and will continue toward the American bor der, abandoning the city of Chihuahua to .the federals. General Orozco gave the order to re treat after his troops had been subjected to the heaviest fire they have yet ex perienced. The rebel commander and a large part of hts force will return te the city of Chihuahua today, but only for a temporary halt. General Orozco will go to Juarez, opposite El Paso, Tex on the Mexican Central, perhaps turning back then southwest along the Mexican Northwestern railroad to Casas Grandes, which is now the rebel rallying place. REBEL PLANS. From Casas Grande, which is in a mountain country, where the federal ar tillery cannot be brought Into action ad vantageously, the rebels will Invade the rieh state of Sonora. The retreat follow ed a council of war long after midnight. It was the unanimous opinion of the rebel chiefs that a further waste of ammuni tion was foolhardy if the revolution was to be continued. It was decided to follow a new plan altogether. Flying col umns will be sent north, west and south. The strongest will move to the south to co-operate with General Argumedo and Colonel Murillo, last reported at Nazas, in the southern part of the state of Durango, pursued by the federal forces under General Blanquet. Just where General Orozeo’s headquar ters will be has not yet been determined. KING OF CHIHUAHUA. As for General Huerta, the federal commander, the rebels now eall him the "king of Chihuahua,” for they think he will rule in the city of Chihuahua and nowhere else. It is the rebel intention to cut the railroad In every direction around the city as soon as the federals enter, which, however, will be delayed several days, because several bridges for a distance of 40 miles will have been de stroyed between Bachimba and Chihua hua by nightfall today. The Insurrectos believe they can make Ufa miserable for the federal army in Chihuahua by cutting communication on all sides of the town. When the last train left Bachimba today, the work of destroying bridges had begun. Rebel officers claim losses in yesterday’s fight were slight. NO BAIL FOR ALLEGeTd SLAYER OF STEVENS Frank McDonald Must Remain in Tower Until Grand Jury Acts on Case The privilege of ball was denied Frank McDonald, the youth accused of killing young Robert L. Stevens, by Justice James B. Ridley at the prelim inary trial held Wednesday afternoon. Paul Harrison, a city salesman who resides in the Black apartments, was probably the most damaging witness against McDonald. He says he was on the opposite side of Auburn avenue and saw McDonald run after and stab Stev ens, while the latter was attempting to get away. The substance of the testi mony was that McDonald and five eom-. panions were drinking in a saloon at 1® Walton street, when Stevens came In. Stevens got in a difficulty with W. A. Fowler, who pushed him over. Then Stevens was ejected by the bartender. Fowler and Stevens gave up their knives, It is said, and agreed to go into an alley on Auburn avenue and set tle the difficulty with their fists. The entire crowd walked down to the corner of Auburn avenue and Pryor street, where Stevens and McDonald engaged in a fisticuff. The cutting followed. McDonald, when placed on the stand, told freely of the row just prior to the putting. He stated that Stevens had called him a vile name, and then Wil liam M. Smith, his attorney, advised him to say nothing else. Attorney J. D. Kilpatrick represented the family of the slain boy. McDonald will be detained in the Tower until the grand jury acts on the ease. DR. M. L. TROUTMAN IS REPORTED BETTER (Special Dispatch to The Journal.) ATHENS, Ga., July 4.—Rev. Dr. M. L. Troutman rallied somewhat last night and is today reported to be in an improved condition, though still very critically ill. does it force thu laying? Does forcing injure the hen? I will appreciate the answers. MRS. J. M. HURST. ANSWER. Just as long as you continue to use the soft feed or eooked bread with your little ehiekens you will continue to hav« bowel trouble with them, and diarrhoea. The first two weeks of their lives they should have nothing but dry grain food, which Is little chick scratch feed. Pearl grits, cracked rice and oatmeal Is also good. If you will keep them dry and feed just what they will eat up clean of these feeds, you will make your hens lay without forc ing them or injuring them. It is all right to mate a rooster with his offspring the first season, put It should not be kept up contin ually. Braswell, Ga—Will you please an swer through The Journal these ques tions ? I. How many days does It take to hatch Indian Runner duek eggs? J. What day should I stop turning thAn? I eet them the morning of the 20th inst. 3. I have been told to sprinkle them every two or three days with soft water after they have been set IS days, Must I do this? I have (Tiem In a Cycle incubator and have a small tin cup of water in there, too. Please advise. ANSWER. It requires 28 days to hatch Indian Runner dudk eggs. You should stop turning them on the 23rd day. It is a good idea to take a small paint brush and paint the eggs with some tepid water every other day the first week. Rua the brush over them lightly. It depends on what kind of an ineubator that you are using and the place that it is operated in as to this, and by the size of the air cells in your eggs as to bow often and how much water to apply to them. But even with most any kiad es a machine this painting of the dusk eggs does them good. JOURNAL CONGRATULATED [ ON WILSON’S NICTURT i Aldine Chambers, J. W. Mad dox, Shelby Smith and W, T.
