Thus <it will be seen that in a state withâ€" out representatives at large, the norâ€" mal allotment is four delegatesâ€"atâ€" large. Where the state has been carâ€" ried by the Republican nominee for President, three additional delegatesâ€" »atâ€"large are awarded, so that in a Amajority of the states the general ‘allowance is that of seven delegatesâ€" for elector in the last preceding Presidential election, or for the Reâ€" publican nominee for Congress in the last preceding congressional elecâ€" ‘The changes which have accordâ€" ingly taken place in the number of delegates allotted to the various states as reflected in the notation set forth above signify really the rewards or demerits which have been determined by the Republican Party in the several states.

A voice from the sky has been located as vocalized from an airplane through a loud speaker. The first day that the experiment was tried out people on the street heard the voice perfectly. The next day the voice from the sky specialized on the merits of a brand of cigarettes. That was about enough to satisfy everybody that airplanes and loud speakers nukel poor partners. This new scheme is a novelty all right, but if it is conâ€" tinued it can be nothing except a nuiâ€" sance. & WASHINGTON HEARING TOO MANY SKY YOICES Airplane Boosting of Various Wares Becoming Nuisance, Says Report ‘ These plants are very generally propagated vegetatively by such means as cuttings. In this way the numerous ornamentals, such as the whiteâ€"bordered geraniums and pelarâ€" goniums and the redâ€"blotched or solidâ€" red types of Coleus, may be kept rather constant to type in garden orl pot culture. In propagating plants with ornaâ€" mental foliage, it is to be rememberâ€" ed that many of them do not breed true from seed. This is especially so of the green and white (or yellow) variegations, both blotched or red coloration. Certain minute living organisms are{ held to be responsible for the loss| of green in tobacco, in potatoes, and| in otHer crop plants. The blotched‘ type of variegation in several of our‘ ornamentals is known to be infectâ€"} ious. | The delicately and finely blotched variegation of the flowering maple can be transmitted to certsin allâ€" green Abutilons by grafting on to them a branch from a variegated plant. ‘ GEO.
