Driver Holds Up An Automobilist
With Revolver.
At the point of a revolver, it is said»
John“ Biggins, of Waynesburg, . was
compelled to stop his automobile until
W. Stewart, a Greene county farmer,
could get his frightened horse around
the machine.
Stewart was driving to Waynesburg
recently when he met Biggins. at the
foot of a hill. Stewart asked Biggins
to stop the machine, and when the lat-
ter did not at once show a disposition
to do so, Stewart, it is said, pulled his
gun and ordered Biggins to stop. The
driver of the machine got out and led
Stewart’s horse around the automobile.

It would be a commendable action
for Somerset’s High Burgess to issue a
simlar ukase, says the Somerset Demo-
crat, and we think the Burgesses of all
other towns should pursue the same
course. A fool in an automobile is a
dangerous thing, and many fools and
road terrors there are, these days, who
are running automobiles. The Green
county man who pulled his gun did the
proper thing, and his example is worthy
of imitation by all whose rights are

Is New Primary Law Unconstitu-
tional? If so, Who is to Pay for
Holding Primaries Under
New Act?
Word has gone out from Harrisburg
that not a single county in the state
will be reimbursed for the expense of
the Uniform primary until it is deter-
mined by the courts or the Attorney
General whether or not the act is con-
stitutional. The act provides for the
payment by the state of money ex-
pended under the Uniform primary
law, but not a county in the state has
received a penny, and Fayette will be
out over $6,000, unless the act is up-
held. Nearly all of the 87 counties in
the state have held two primaries since
the new act was passed, and in no in-
stance has any of them been repaid,
although the act provides for such re-
payment.
Several other counties are out big
sums, among them Allegheny county,
which has a claim of $40,000 which the
state refuses to pay. Philadelphia has
a claim of $75,000, and Lackawanna
county’s bill is $20,000. Somerset
county’s bill for holding the last pri-
mary is about $3,000.
The question that now arises is this:
If the Uniform primary law uncon-
stitutional, and the state will not pay
for holding the last primary, will it be
constitutional for the various counties
to pay the bills? If not,then who must
do the paying? Furthermore, if the
new law is unconstitutional, were the
candidates nominated under the Uni-
form primary act lawfully nominated?
Pennsylvania has been sending too
many jackasses to the Legislature, and
not enough men who know how to
draw up a bill so as to make it lawful
and free from a half dozen different
interpretations.

FARMERS' BIGGEST YEAR.
Earnings Promise to be a Billion
More Than in 1906.
Upward of $1,000,000,000 more than
last year will be the American farmers’
earnings in 1907. Farm productions
this year will be about 10 per centy
less in quantity than in 1908, which
was the bumper season, but the crops
of 1808 will fully equal the average
yields for five years prior, to last sea-
son.
The preliminary review of the crops
of the year emphasizes that, because
of decreased quantity and increased
price the leading staples this season
will net over $500,000,000 more to the
farmers than last year, while their to-
tal gains may, be almost twice as great.
As the vast industrial prosperity of
the last 15 years has been based upon
the agricultural revival which charac-
terized 1893-97, the American Agricul-
turist predicts an even better era of
good times now than in the recent past,
because of these marvelous gains in
agriculture.
The wheat crop, this year, will ap-
proximate 625,000,000 bushels, 159,000,
000 less than last year. Corn promises
to be within five per cent. as much as
last year, and with but two or three
exceptions the biggest yield in history.

A cow that wore a bell, having been
ran over and killed on the railway, the
owner brought suit against the railway
for damage. It was proved that the
driver blew the whistle loudly and
tried to frighten the cow off the track.
But the farmer’s lawyer also proved

The ‘Strength’ of Flour.
| Millers and bakers know that large
| differences exist among various sorts
of wheat flour with regard to baking
value, or strength, but it appears that
! only recently have completed chemical
tests been made to determine why a
| given quality of flour of one brand will
produce a loaf nearly one-third larger
| than the same quantity of another
brand. According to experiments by
the Department of Agriculture, at
| Cambridge, England, the volume of a
loaf of bread depends in the first in-
| stance upon the relative amount of
| sugar in the dough. The addition of
| sugar always increases the size of a
| loaf, or, as the baker says, makes the
| flour stronger. There are other dif-
ferences affecting such things as tex-
