Klectlon day was Nov. 8. On that
day the people of New Jersey, for
innnr rears a Reoublicun state, chose
Wood row Wllsoti for governor by
plurality of 4U.130. Two years lefnre
Taft had carried the state by a plu
rallty of 82.000. Wilson had changed
the political mind of 60.000 out of
433,000 voters.
On the same day the majority of
those Democrats who took the trouble
to mark their ballots In this particular
selected Ja,mes Y. Ma nine as their
choice for United States senator. The
total Democratic vote for senator was
only 73,000. Martlue received 54,000
Nobody voted for .lames Smith, Jr.
James E. Marttne was au holiest and
faithful Democrat with radical views,
as genial and good hearted a man as
ever breathed, but scarcely a man that
would have leen chosen deliberately
for the dignities of membership in the
august body that sits In the northern
end of the national capitol. Regularly
for years he had been put up as candi

was uo hope of election. It was a

Ten days after the election .lames

Wilson at his homo In Princeton. The

The governor elect then laid down
this ultimatum:

The last mall Thursday night brought
no message from Smith, and Mr. W1I

prepared denouncing the Smith caudi

It wss a bitter fight. The governor
did not wait for the assembling of the
legislature. He appeared before large
audiences In the ch'ef cities and. mnk

the people to see to it that t heir repre

told the story, he brought no pressure

harm if they did so. He said to them

Your Soil Is Alive
O all intents and purposes, soil id
alive. It breathes, works, rests; it
drinks, and, most important of all,
it feeds. It responds to good or bad
treatment. It pays its debts with
interest many times compounded. Being alive,
to work it must be fed. During the non-growing
seasons certain chemical changes take place
which make the fertility in the soil available
for next season's crop. But this process adds
no plant food t le soil. Unless plant food is
added to soil on which crops are grown, in
time it starves. There is one best way to feed
your soil. Stable manure, which contains all
the essentials of plant life, should be spread
evenly and in the proper quantity with an
I H C Manure Spreader
I H C manure spreaders are made in all st lei
and sizes. There are low machines which are
not too low, but can be used in mud and deep
snow, or in sloppy barnyards. They are made
with either endless or reverse aprons. Frames
are made of steel, braced and trussed like a steel
bridge. Sizes run from small, narrow machines
to machines of large capacity. The rear axle
js placed well under the box, where it carries
over 70 per cent of the load, insuring plenty of
tractive power. Beaters are of large diameter
to prevent winding. The teeth are square and
chisel-pointed. The apron drive controls the
load, insuring even spreading whether the ma
chine is working up or down hill, or on the
level. I H C spreaders have a rear axle differ
ential, enabling them to spread evenly when
turning corners.

will show you all their good points. Get litera
