26. Fraternal insurance companies in Illinois, the home of scores of fraternal societies, are hit hard by an opinion handed down by the supreme court in its closing session here, in which it is decided that the mortuary and all other moneys and funds of the societies are assessable and should be taxed. A readjustment of rates may be made necessary in some of the orders becauso of the increase in expenses this will necessitate, as thousands of dollars, formerly exempt will be placed on the assessment rolls.

The house was crowdel to its full capacity to do honor to Kansas'governor. The address was long but not tiresome, and tho large audience gave most respectful attention, to what the governor had to say.

His subject a political one course, was along the line of what his administration had done iv the way of enacting good laws. What had been done for which his administration had been critic cized, and his elucidation of the proper interpretation of these acts. The governor was cheered the echo at various times, and it may be said of Governor Hock iathe is a good sptaker, aueo, tertaining talker. He mentioned that he had almost lost his power of speech at different during the campaign which gave him uneasyness and it was apparent that he was trying to save his voic. The speech was not remarkable insofar as the line of campaign issues are concerned, being along the line of the governor's ad-dresses throughout the state this fall.

The Farmers Institute opened here thia morning with the finest display of products of the farm and orchard ever collected in Morris county. The display of every conceivable crop grown in the county extended from the door along one side of the large hall, and other displays occupied the ppace in the rear uf the speakers stand. Fine corn, potatoes, beets, apples, and grain and fruit of every kind were among the exhibition. Besides the exhibits and awarding of prizes came the program previously arranged. The holds that the legisla ture has not the power to exempt from taxation any property which is not exempted in the plain language of the constitution.

Under the opinion the board of equalization is re that there is much art in successful bread making. Mrs. Calvin then gave an address illustrating by charts iiBed at the agricultural college and it is only fair to say that her subject was listened to with the greatest interest by everyone. This was followed by an address by Supt. A.

B. Robison on "Agriculture in the Rural Schools" Mr. Robison champions the idea expressed by his subject and discussed the subject very ably and thoroughly. The last address of today was b'y Prof. Ten Eyck on "Rotation in Crops." This address was one of the most practical ever delivered on the subject of farming.

Mr. Ten Eyck showed very conclusively that only by rotation in crops can the highest degree of perfection be attained iu the growing of crops. That no fertilizer can keep tne soil in condition for growing but one crop, because the necessary ingredients of the soil becomes exhausted and can only be replaced by taking less away from the soil and equalizing the essential ingredients that com quired to assess the capital stock of mercantile and manufacturing corporations, companies organized for Fine Batiste Corset WITH HOSE SUPPORTERS publishing purposes, and the only exemptions which can possibly be 69c Special made are property which Is used exclusively for agricultural and horticultural societies, school, religious, cemetery and charitable purposes and the property of the state, county and municipal corporations. HE PRODUCED THE RECORDS. The first address was by Prof.

A. M. Ten Eyck of the state agricultural college, on the subject of corn breeding. -The professor commenced with the prsparation in the selection of the seed, the seed selection and brought his subject down to the growth and harvesting of the crop. Many new truths were gleaned by the farmers on the suject of breeding corn a subject of probably the greatest interest to our farmers.

26. In the United States circuit court Thursday Judge Finkelnburg decided that Robert M. Fraser, Chairman of the Eastbound Freight committee, must produce before Special Commissioner- Rom-bauer the records of the committee wanted by the government in its ouster suit proceedings against the Terminal Railroad association. In Issuing the order on Fraser to turn over his rate books, Judge Finkelnburg commented on the fact that the Terminal suit is a matter of vital Interest throughout the United States. Fraser was recently constructively placed under arrest for refusing to produce his records at the hearing.

After the court's decision Fraser handed over his records. In order to give the government time to inspect them the hearing was adjourned until next Tuesday morning. etta Calvin of the 6tate agricultural college gave an interesting talk to the girls. In the afternoon Dyson Jackson gave an address on "Better Farm ing for Better Corn." This address was practical and showed a practical farmer's experience on the question of corn culture. He proved very conclusively that standing room in the large hall where the exhibits and exercises were held.

If the weather remains as much like summer weather as has been the case today, a hall twice the size of the largest in the city will not hold the people who will be here to attend tne institute tomorrow. The success of the undertaking has so far exceeded the expectations of everyone and an agricultural fair for a week will bo necessary if these institutes are to continue us an annual feature. T. J.
