A Lady Makes IA Discovery I'm
portant to Tobacco Growers.

Paducah ksuruckian. Juy l5ih-
The idea prevailed in olden times that
women were only fit TO attend TO do
nestle affairs. such a cooking, sew Ing
and attending To the children. Under n
higher culture the women have devel-
oped a capacity for scientific iuveSiiga-
ton and discovery that proves them
equal in mental capacity To the lords of
creation.
Just now. when tobacco plants are
scarce, aud hard to procure, aud when,
for want of a season TO set out plants. the
few that were in the buds have run 10
what is known "a ''long shank plants, n
distinguished lady of Ballard county has
made discovery that must prove Of
great utility. She cut of about III inch
of the main bud of one of these plants
and set ii out. when to her delight the
but took root and produced beautiful
plant. We have one of these plants ia
our Office, where il can be seen. with
seven fine leaves Oh it. The main root
is about an inch and half long. and
shows at the end where it was broken
off from the original plant.
Mrs. Oscar Turner is the lady who
made this discovery, which may prove
of great value to tobacco growers.
