GOVERIIOB HAPPY OVER AN ESCAPE
Glad He Was Not Drawn Into A Factional Scrap in The Party.
A BIG ROW IS BREWING
MARSHALL WAS, ASKED TO BUTT
INTO THE INDIANAPOLIS MAYORALTY TROUBLE, , ' BUT HE TURNED IT DOWN.
Indianapolis, July 15. Governor Marshall believes he has narrowly escaped being drawn Into the factional fight in the democratic party in this city which has raged for years between the Taggart faction and the antis. He is congratulating himself too, that he has been able to keep out of it. A city election-will be held in this city this fall, and the only candidates announced "for the democratic nomination for mayor are Charles E. Clark, a lawyer whom Tom Taggart is supporting, Charles A. Gauss, who was a member of the last legislature and a grocer named W. A. Kroll. who has no more chance of the nomination than a lame rabbit. They Are Disgusted. , , . The rank and file of the democrats in the city are diBgusted with the outlook. None of these candidates is acceptable to the party, and It is conceded that if either one Is nominated he will be defeated as sure as the election comes around. It means a sure victory for the republicans. Even the governor has fears of this kind. Recently there sprang up a demand for former Mayor John W. Holtrman to come out for the nomination. It was a cinch that he could have the nomination if he would only announce himself and go after it. But Holtzman was not willing to go into the race unless the rest of the candidates would withdraw. A large portion of the party was anxious that this be done and negotiations were on for some time between the followers of Gauss and Clark and Holtzman looking to that end. There was a hitch some where and the aid of Governor Marshall was sought in the effort to clear up the situation. He was asked to bring about the withdrawal of the other candidates. Not For Thomas. It was this that the governor refused to have anything to do with. He said he did not propose to mix up In the local situation and get his fingers burned. He would not line up with any faction of the party, and he feared that if he butted in anywhere he would get the worst of it. So he refused to mix in the scrap, and the result was that yesterday Holtzman announced that he will not be a candidate for the nomination.
Governor Marshall said he wished to
do all in i his power to promote harmony in the . party, anywhere in the state, but that he did not propose to allow anyone to use him.

PROTECTION FOR SQUASH.
Two Practical and Inexpensive Plans
to Prevent Ravages of Borers. The most difficult matter about
growing squashes is to protect the vines from the various insects that prey upon them. This is especially
true in the home garden and small
plots near buildings or near where
squashes or other vine crops were grown the previous year, because the insects hibernate in the buildings and in the grouud near the vines they fed upon for the winter. For the striped cucumber beetle there Is no poison or repellent that will prove effective and
satisfactory at all times. The box
plant protector shown in the cut is 12 by 12 inches and six inches high, cover
ed with wire screen, which Is set over
the hill when the seeds are planted and left on until the plants get too
large. Protectors of this type may be
made of old pine boxes or other odds and ends, and they need not cost over
5 cents apiece, even if the lumber must
be purchased,
Making a Big Hit Fatima Cigarettes offer a high-class smoke at a moderate price and smokers everywhere recognize their unusual value. Selected tobaccos, skillful blending, clean manufacture, careful inspection all contribute to the excellence of the Fatima blend. Generous quantity enables Fatima smokers to combine enjoyment with economy.

second cut, is made entirely of wire screen. The one showu was made by cutting a circular piece of wire screen
twenty-tour inches : in ' diameter and
then folding over a section, amounting
to one-fourth to one-third of the circumference, and fastening with short pieces of small wire pushed through the meshes and the ends twisted together. It gives a good idea as to
how these protectors are made. - At retail prices the protectors made this
way will cost 8 cents each, but they have this advantage over the box
atyle the light and air hare full access to the plants, as a glance at the ink bottle in the wire plant protector
will prove the bottle being placed in
the center of . the protector. . These pictures were taken early in April, and the ink bottle had to do duty in place of the plants. Another advantage; of this style is that the protectors may
be nested together and stored easily
WIBB PLAXT PROTECTOR. when no longer needed. If given a coating of coal tar or some weather proof paint o(asionally these protectors should last for years. Some of the smallest beetles can crawl through the meshes of wire screen, but one can easily kill the very few that get Inside.
The bush or sucamer squashes if
taken when tender and cooked like eggplant are much superior to that well known vegetable. Of course where the bush squashes are about
mature and before the borers leave
the stem to hibernate in the soil the vines should be pulled and destroyed to kill the borer. Tfcto should be done
about Aug. l; the time varies with the latitude. Spraying the first four or five Joints of the squash vine (not the
leaves) with kerosene emulsion is a
good plan, as also are catching and kill
ing the adult moth, which is very con
spicuous and easily found when once
known. However, the trap crop plan wilt be found to be the most practical
and satisfactory method of dealing
with the squash borer. In using the above described screen protectors it Is well to remember that the soil should
be drawn up about the edges of the
box or wire screen and firmed down
so as to be sure that none of the bugs
can crawl under the sides.

These "Plants Out of Place" Have a Fixod Market Value. Money in weeds? To be sure. The national department of agriculture has been for many years telling the farmers of the large money value going to waste each year in this country in the shape of pernicious 'weeds and has been issuing bulletins with directions for collecting, curing and selling the weeds. A quarter of a century ago Dr. George B. Loring, the commissioner of agriculture, called attention to
Another style, in the j tne fact tnat in Germany many of the
commonest and most pernicious weeds that the American farmer has to contend with were successfully and profitably cultivated. Burdock, dandelion, witch , grass, foxglove, mullein, horehound, jimson, mustard and water hemlock are among our commonest weeds and grow In great profusion almost everywhere In the United States. Ordinarily they are regarded merely
as troublesome weeds. The trouble, of course, is in the lazy habit of attempting to grow weeds and cultivated crops on the same land at the same time. So It often happens that the witch grass between the potato rows Is more , valuable than the tubers in the hills.
When you raise weeds yon must make a business of it. Land that will raise nothing else will raise weeds. The
jimson grows in rank profusion about
the feed lot, the front yard is yellow with dandelion flowers, and the flow
ers of the mullein bedeck the pastures.
The burdock grows in the roadside fence corners, and the waste lot pro
duces an abundance of witch grass and
comfrey, yet a majority of the drug weeds used in medicine in this country are still Imported and paid for at a
high rate. j Without counting wormwood, tansy and rhubarb, all of which are weeds in favored places, and without including catnip or pennyroyal or any of the mints, the American people are paying out more than $300,000 a year in hard earned money for Imported weeds which are growing wild In nearly every part of the country. "The imports for the year 1907-8 were as follows: Pounds Fries - ' Import- per Total ed. pound, value. Burdock SO.OOO 7 14.200 Dandelion 115,522 S 6.776 Dock 125.000 S 7,500 Witch grass 20,000 S 15,000 Foxglove 68,000 7 8,850 Mullein 6.000 60 3.000 Korehound 80.000 6 1.800 Jimson weed 150.000 6 7.600 Water hemlock 30.000 6 1.000 Mustard .... B.000,000 5 250.000 The knowledge that there is money
in the very common and much .de
spised weeds Is spreading every year, and a very considerable industry In medicinal weeds has arisen, but it is far short of what it should be. The average farmer cannot bring himself to regard as other than a heresy the declaration that a weed Is simply a
useful plant out of place. The price paid by big jobbing drug houses for leaves, flowers or roots of the commoner weeds which afflict the farmer with their presence when he lets them get out of place are as follows: Dandelion roots, dried; jimson weed, leaves and seeds, poison hemlock, freshly plucked, and dried flowers and leaves and dried and cleaned seed of black and white mustard, 5 cents a pound; burdock root, sliced and dried. 7 cents a pound; dried leaves and blossoms of borehousd and wild foxglove,- 6 to 7 cents a pound; dried blossoms of the tall pasture mullein. 60 cents a pound if sealed in tight jars. In addition to the above standard drugs the dried leaves of coke-
weed and Irilimru. gold thread and jack-In-tbe-pulpit are marketed, as well as the leaves and flowers of tansy, lobelia, . boncset. catnip and a dozen other very common plants, all of which are in demand at the market prices. Sanitary Poultry. Nest. The present day tendency to employ sanitary measures in the dairy, the stable, the dog house, etc., has at last extended to the poultry yard. The industrious hen Is to be provided with a sanitary nest which can be readily washed and scrubbed, as occasion demands. This recent development Is shown In the accompanying illustration. The nest is made of wire and Is supported in a suitable housing, both of which can be removed from th chicken hcns vli"i flonnlp? Is neces
sary. When thus removed they an be conveniently placed In a suitable receptacle containing bol Ing water and thoroughly cleansed of all Impuritie and undesirable insects.
