The de sire for a change is, to the mind of man}- observers, one of the chief fac tors in the growing strength of the Democratic ticket. In New York. But there is no reason to look to the middle west alone for Democratic suc cess. History frequently repeats itself, particularly political history. It is matter, of record, of course, that more than twenty years ago a somewhat dominant Republican president insist ed upon naming the Republican candi date for governor of New York. Has the case of Folger been.forgotten and the enormous- majority which his en forced nomination on the Republican ticket rolled up for his opponent? To day President Roosevelt, not content with forcing the nomination fbr. presi dent of a man selected by him, de .mandsrthe^on*n>in?on,^'or go jiernor-,t>f; New York of ;a man who. be, tbfnks; would bring the most strength'to the, lieket In other words, the president puts Iris judgment above that of the entire party machine, expects that ma chine to ratify it and then get out a -full vote for a candidate nominated without its will. It is altogether prob able that Hughes may Folgerize New York. "* .. ? New York is debatable*'ground, and nobody knows it better than the Re publicans who have established their chief headquarters there. Concerning the South. "Up from the south at break of day;" as the old war poem used to have it, there came news from the press agent of the Republican national committee that he had traveled all the way to Hot Springs, *Ark., and was convinced of the fact that the solid south would be broken by Taft. As against this expert opinion miglit be cited the views of Senator Culberson of Texas, former Governor Bcnlou McMHlin of Tennes see and Champ Clark of Missouri. Senator Culberson laughed aloud, at the suggestion that llu? electoral vote of a single southern state would be lost to the Democratic ticket. Even West Virginia and Maryland, which have ceased to lie considered as tech nically southern stales, lie believes will this time swing into the Demo cratic column. There could be no bet ter judge of this situation in Hie south thai: he. lor In: is one of the most popu- j lar men south of the Ohio and Poto mac rivers, the Democratic leader in the United Slates senate and a trained political observer. Governor McMillin I fo*r his part spoke only for Tennessee, ! when? he has lived his whole life and which he has served in many honor able capacities. "The Republicans are chasing rainbows in Tennessee."' said he. "Well, ir does no harm as far as we are cones-rued. They come down there with their money, and the boys are always glad to welcome northern capital." And filially Champ ?Mark, fresh from Missouri, predicts a -10,000 majority there for Bryan. The German Vote. One "f (he best equipped politicians in Chicago, who is equally conversant with political conditions in the slate neighlwiring to Illinois, told me the other day that If the national ticket could this time gel '.'>"> per coot of the j German vole it would carry the states l^of Wisconsin, Illinois and Indiana, in Chicago alone are 200,000 German vot j ers. Not since 1S02 have we ever been {able (?? pull 10 per cent of this vote. In Unit year it was carried ie-^s by ClevelaiHl than l>y the fact thai John P. Altgeld was on Hie ticket with him. Fur (his reason earnest efforts arc be ing made this year to secure this vote, with an apparent assurance of success. The example of Ihe Staats-Zeltung of New York In declaring for Bryan has now ??ecu followed by (he Abend Post of this city, (he strongest German pa per here. As (here are not fewer than 300,000 voters of German extrac tion within (ho influence of these pa pers, the probability thai their support will prove effective is great. The Bank Guarantee Plan. A wcH informed newspaper corre spondent, not a Democratic or a Bryaa man, who has just returned Crom a trip through Kansas, Nebraska and Iowa assured me that ibe strongest j?sue presented by the Democratic plat form to the farmers of the middle west is Mr. Bryan's plan for (be guarantee of deposits in every bank, by .a motler ate tax upon the assets of all banks In (bo same district He assures me?aud it is indeed my Information from let ters received?that it is not merely the depositor**, but bankers themselves in those sections, that approve this prin ciple. The case is cited of one national banker who has already surrendered the charter of his bank and made ap plication for a new one as a state bank, lu Oklahoma there Is a general revolt of the national banks against the rul ing of Attorney General Bonaparte that they may not even voluntarily obey the state guarantee law. Eight banks have announced that they will become state banks to take advantage of the law. while others declare their purpose to organize branch institutions under the state law. But. more than that, all through Kan sas. Nebraska, Iowa and South Dako to candidate for the state legislature or senate on the Republican ticket are making their race on platforms declar ing explicitly for the guarantee sys tem. The Republican candidates are quite as eager to take advantage of it* ,ns are the Democrats. This ; is the liiore instructive tovthose who believe that a good idea docs permeate the 'people because the Republican national platform refused' to accept the priaei pic of guaranty of deposits and Secre tary Taft in his speech of acceptance especially denounced it There is a general feeliug among western bankers, particularly since the recent Roosevelt panic, that the east ern bankers are attempting to break down the state banks in order to form j< a chain of national banks controlled by the great financiers of Wall street. This is a belief long held by financial people which has now come to Ivc generally accepted by the masses. It is supported by the fact that every New York bank of any great size owns its Chicago bank aud that its Chicago bank owns and controls the banks in lesser cities, which in turn control those In villages. And so, with (lie chain complete, the money of the farmer or J the small merchant put in1o his own bank goes to Chicago, where, like a river fed by innumerable rivulets, it becomes a huge stream of gold flow ing into the New York speculative cen ter. Once there it passes into Wall street to be used to finance railroads that oppress the farmer or trusts that extort from him a great per cent of his earnings. And. like a groat river, its course seldom turns backward. The western fanners would like to keep their money near tit home. The west ern bankers would like to have hoard ed savings deposited in their banks to be lent t<> neighbors who may need accommodation. That Is why the Republican candidates for state legisla tures and Semites :ne earnestly advo cating the passage of the same guar anty which the Republican presidential candidate at the behest of Wall street! has s<> emphatically repudiated. Chicago. To the Democrats of South' Carolina.

At an early period it was found necessary 10 evolve rrorn the mass of ethical teaching a few general rules for living, called "The Ten Com mandments," by which a man could he moral without going tnrough a course in theology. Jnsi so, in order to instruct'the average farmer how to successfully conduct his farm operations so as to secure a greater net gain from the farm, it is neces sary to first deduce from the mass of agricultural teachings a few gen eral rules of procedure. They are called "The Ten Commandments of Agriculture,' by the practice of which a man may be'a good farmer in any state without being a graduate from a college of agriculture. (1) Prepare a deep and thorough ly pulverized seed bed, well, drained: break in the fall, to the depth of 3, 10 or 1.2 inchesj according to the soil, with implements that .will not bring too much of the subsoil to the sur face^ the foregoing depths should be reached gradually.) (2) Use seed of the best variety, intelligently selected and carefully stored. (3) In cultivated crops, give the rows and the plants in the rows a space suited to the plant, 'the s'oil and the climate. (4) Use intensive tillage during the growing period of the crops. ' (5) Secure a high content of hu mus ia the soil by the use of legum es, barnyard manure, farm refuse and commercial fertilizers. (C) Carry out a systematic crop rotation with a winter cover crop on southern farms. (7) Accomplish more work in a ,day "by using more horse-power and ibetfer implements. (S) Increase the farm stock to the extent of utilizing all the waste products and Idle lands of the farm. (9) Produce all the food required for the men and animais on the farm. (10) keep an account of each farm product, in order to know from which the gain or loss arises. S. A. Knapp. Washington, D. C. ABOUT FEEDING HORSES. Part tif a Speech of one of the South's Greatest Experts in This Line. The following is slipped from The State, being a part of the speech re cently made by Judge Henry Ham mond of Augusta and Beach Island. Judge Hammond is recognized as an expert on the subject of feeding stock. ?When the farmers of the south learn to use more of their cotton pro ducts, learn to feed their horses and stock with cotton seed products, it will mean millions of dollars to the south, part of which every farmer will save for himself. No report has ever shown that injury to u horse has been a result of feeding cotton seed meal. Feed it every day. That's whal 1 do. It is not a hot or a cold climate reed. Feed not less than one pound nor more than three, the amount to be determined by the age, si;:c and work of the animal. N'oi only is it lh<' most nutritious food but ii greatly aids the digestion -....i general health and good appearance of the animal. Feed Cotton Seed Meal with any thing you ever hearcl of a horse or mule eating?corn, whole: corn, cracked.: ensilage; bran &t: Don'1 stick to any one food. Give a variety. Change as the price changes. M is always best to feed hard working stock ground (not too fine) feed. Cotton seed meal is fed to best ad vantage when thoroughly mixed with the other portion of the grain part of the ration. If you know What number of pounds of grain will maintain your animal, reduce this two pounds for every pound of meal yon feed ??*???. To illustrate this,-?if you h.v. - ,.*nn giving him 1 1 pounds of corn, give him now only 10 pounds of corn and 2 pounds of cotton seed meal. He will soon improve and do better work than ever before." j JUST FROM NEW YORK After spending three weeks in the markets, I am now at home to welcome you.
