THE enterprising citizens Of several Ken
lucky towns, especially merchants, are hav-
ing their main business streets watered by
a sprinkling cart. Can't we have one too ?
The cost TO each business house and dwell
ing on main street would be mere triAe.
as one cart could do it all, and water is
abundant within thirty steps Of main street
at the intersection Of several streets. The
comfort Of a watered street, to say nothing
Of the saving Of the goods from flying
dust, would more than compensate each
one for the trifiing outlay necessary to Sc
cure il. Who will start the cart' A
subscription is now being made up to
pay for the work, and only 25 cents is ask
ell Of each house, per week.
