COUiJTY FARMERS IIOLOJl MEETKIG Conditions of the Crops Are Discussed by the Wayne Horticulturalists CORN CROP WILL BE FAIR ENOUGH APPLES IN THE SOUTH IN SECTION OF THE STATE TO SUPPLY THE OEMANO IN THIS LOCALITY.
The crop outlook for Wayne county m view with optimism at the' meeting of the Wayne County Horticultural Society at the home of J. C. Steven, two miles and a half north of Centervile, yesterday afternoon. About 75 members of the society were present and the condition of wheat, corn, fruit and live stock was discussed and each apeaker spoke of the good conditions prevailing generally over the county. Several member of the society spoke about the corn and apple crop, and said that although the conditions were not the best at the first of the season that there would be a good supply of corn and that there were enough apples In the southern part of the state to ward against an apple famine In this locality. Mr. Stevens bad several exhibits which he explained to the society. Among them were some ears of corn raised from seed of the corn that took first prise at the Omaha fair last year. Thla corn had. a remarkable clear color and the ears are good size, measuring over a foot.
The stock, too, grows high, reaching fourteen feet and the first ear comes out on the stock, eight feet from the ground. Mr.' Stevens found one fault with the corn and that "as
that It waa hard to be aclimated.
Another exhibit was the mixed corn
which he planted this year and which
yielded 125 bushels per acre. Mr. Stev
ens also spoke of the good condition of his wheat, which would yield about
It bushels to the acre.
Caleb King gave a report from-the
agricultural committee, speaking most ly of the corn crop. One reason, Mr,
King said that the crop outlook was
good, was because, aa he traveled over the county, he found men selling their
old corn. This is said was an indica tlon that the new corn was plentiful.
In speaking of the condition of the
hogs, Mr. IKng said that they were af-
hogs, Mr. King said that they were afhilt ti AlA tint vUw th lltlUi. BrWh
alarm.
Mr. Stevens urged those nreaent not
io plant their wheat until. after Sep.
tember 20. He based his appeal on the government bulletin which was recently Issued, stating that the Hessian
fly which haa been damaging the wheat over the county did not deposit their (Ul until SeDtember SO. and If the
plaining of wheat was delayed until
that time there would be no danger
irora me ny.
Flowers, dairy and poultry were also considered by the society. . Mrs. Edna Pike spoke on "The Future of Poultry
Business In Wayne County." saying that the thoroughbred stock was more profitable than the mixed stock. To prevent cholera among chickens she
advised the use of lime In the drinking
water of the flock.

PRESIDENT TAFT
AfID NEW STATES
He Will See that They Adopt
Constitutions that Are Satisfactory.
THEY MUST BE FAIR ONES
Liberal English Government Having Very Difficult Time
HE, WILL NEVER 8TAND FOR THE
RECKLESS KIND ADOPTED BY OKLAHOMA UNDER HA8KELL'S LEADERSHIP.
(American Ni Service.) Beverly, Mass., Sept 10. When the
proper time comes President Taft will have something to say about the con
stitution of Arizona and New Mexico,
two new states, which his Insistence has made full members of the union.
Advice was recently given by Colonel Roosevelt to the people of new states to leave a loophole for, amendments to their constitutions. Whether President Taft agrees with this sentiment Is not known. He had adopted a policy of. silence regarding declarations
of the former president.
It can be said positively, however,
that as the law authorizing Arizona and New Mexico to prepare for statehood gives the president a veto on the constitutions which they adopt, he will
bring all his legal Judgment and experience to bear in insuring for the new states forms of government which
they will not be ashamed of genera
tions hence. Specifically it may be as
serted on the best authority that the president will never give his approval
to a sort of constitution that was
adopted by Oklahoma under the reckless leadership of Governor Haskell.
This joint statehood bill which' was
passed by the last session of congress
after a tariff fight led by the presi
dent, provides that . after the new states shall have adopted constitutions and before they are put into operation, they shall be Improved by president and congress or by the president alone If congress shall fail to act on them at the session at which they are submitted. This provision was inserted in
the act of congress because the presi
dent made it of highest importance
that there should be some check upon the constitution conventions, after the
experience in Oklahoma.
The president does not believe In throttling free expression of public sentiment, but In the younger commun
ities there Is grave danger that the
people, whether the new constitutions be made difficult or easy of amendment, will commit acts which later they will wish to rescind. Generally speaking, the. president believes In a constitution of the feweat possible words that Is expressive of the fundamentals of government alone. . Such a constitution, be believes, neither ties the hands of future generations nor calls for special amendment.
(Special Cable from the International News Service.) By HERBERT TEMPLE. London, Sept. 9. The liberal government has more trouble on its hands and Mr. AsQutta will have to use all his diplomacy to get out of It without splitting his already rather uncertain majority In the house of commons. By what Is generally known here as the "Osborne Judgment," the courts of Great Britain have forbidden the labor unlona to use their funds to .pay the expenses of the representatives of labor In the house of commons, and If this decision is allowed to stand it will mean that practically none of the present representatives ot labor will be able to hold their seats, for they are all men of small means who cannot afford to live in London and do nothing but attend meetings of the house for which they receive no pay. The labor party are naturally look
ing to the present government assist
ance,' and the Question is one which will have to be solved quickly, but so far nobody knows what the government will do, although Colonel Seeley, union secretary for the colonies, at a meeting of mine workers the other day stated that something would be done and that the government would be no party to allowing the matter to drift on In its present position which place men of standing in the house of commons In an embarrassing situation which could not be tolerated. The British laborers are having their first taste of government by injunction, and they do not like to any better than do their brethren in America, so all labor uuions are considering some definite plan of campaign and a proposal, which is winning general approval. Is that the union should openly defy the law and continue the use of their funds for political purposes regardless of the injunctions. As a preliminary to this extreme step, it Is suggested that the officials should arm themselves with the authority of a majority vote of their members which, it ,1s said, will be given In nine cases out of ten. What actions the courts would take In the face of such open defiance it is difficult to say, but the general opinion is that wholesale committals for contempt of court would follow. This finds more favor than other suggestions that the leaders should order a general stoppage of work throughout the country or that the
labor members should vote against the
government, when Important measures
come' up after the opening ot parliament In November. The recently-passed act of parliament for giving one day's rest In seven to the members of the London police force "is being put Into opera
tion as rapidly as possible, but the process must necessarily be a slow one. From the first it was estimated that four years must elapse before the new system could become a fact, and the men, recognizing the difficulties in the 'way, are, on the whole, satisfled with the rate of progress. The force, which originally was 16.00 strong; has already been Increased to about 18,500. and another 1,500 new constables will havev to join before each man can have one day's rest in seven without lowering the efficiency of the force. Each new man, after being accepted, has to pass through a protracted period of school training before passing out upon his duties, and thus, even if the men were available, they could not commence their duties
right away. Recruits have been passing fairly well, but In addition to the special
augmentation there are the usual annual resignations, numbering some thousands, to be made good. Harvesting has practically stopped the supply of men from the country for the time being, but recruits Just now. At present the men are getting two days off a month one Sunday and one week-day. To any American who has lived in England for any length of time it is a puzzle why Amtricans should come over here In ever Increasing numbers, but the fact remains that London haa this year been visited by a record rush of Americans, whose reckless txpenditure of money in English eyes is being made the most of by the tariff reform papers, which say that these wealthy visitors prove the blessings of protection and that every man in England would be able to go to the continent every summer and to Monte Carlo every winter, If England would only place a high tariff on anything her people buy from abroad.
But ' enough about politics, the Americans come here and they do spend their money freely. The general -manager of the leading tourist
agency here, said to me yesterday: "Although, of coarse, we have not yet had time to compile the exact figures I . am tolerably convinced that more Americans have visited Europe this summer than any other time since the Paris exhibition of 1900. "I- can give no better idea of the great number of visiting Americans this summer than by mentioning that
we must have booked ' about' 10,000
Americans for the Passion play at
Oberammergau alone."
In view of the fact that the average American who. comes to Europe for the Passion play must spend at least $250.- Oberammergau will. Indirectly,
at least account (or an expenditure of
not less than $2,500,000 of American
money probably a great deal more.
Certainly more than 100.000 have visited London and spent between
seven and eight million dollars, and at present, when . they . all want to go
back at once, there are not ships
enough to carry them.

Mission MoiDeH A type of architecture that has won much favor in art circles by reason of its admirable quaintness, possessing an appearance of elegant solidity that greatly enhances its adaptation to piano architecture. Special attention is given to the finish of : these cases when a sample Is furnished for us to: match.
Proof ot Meriltt
If proof is needed, Starr Pianos may be found in every section of the union and almost every country of the civilized world. Over eighty thousand instruments are owned by musicians, many of the second generation who know and demand the best in piano construction. A list of over three hundred schools, many the largest and best, attest to their extraordinary wearing qualities, for no harder use is possible. In private homes, in conservatories, in concert work, in fact wherever music is found there are Starr Pianos giving perfect satisfaction. -
Concern (Grand! Modell The success of the Starr Concert Grand has, been phenomenal. As an instrument designed to meet every requirement of the most exacting use, it has been unequalled. The volume and quality of tone is truly wonderful. Architecturally, it is one of the most beautiful Grand cases ever designed.
M With the coming of autumn parents turn once more to the education of their children. Music should be a part, and an important part of every child's schooling. What acquirement is more satisfying than that of being able to play well? The Starr piano is especially adapted to the uses of the child pupil as well as to the performances of the most finished artist.
Sllairi? Pflayei? Even- with the extreme simplicity of design in the Starr Playerpiano, it is an intricate and delicate piece of mechanism, the successful performance of which must depend entirely upon the quality and durability of materials entering into its construction. Every material entering into the Starr Player is selected in view of its special fitness for the services required.
