used very simple remedy in

very great satisfaction. His
plan is to sift ordinary -four on

when these are damp with dew

suit being that they die from

IN OLD KENTUCKY.
A Pleasant Visit In Our Old Home
Some Things We Saw.

Aug. Goth, the writer accom-.
panied by his wife and baby |
boarded the Burlington's Port
land st. Louis train euroute to |
the home Of our childhood in
Boore Co., KY, for a visit
with relatives. The trains of
the Burlington are as fine as
any road IN the u. S., the road !
bed is good; Burlington officials
are all pleasant and courteous
and there is nothing to prevent
a trip over the Burlin gton from
being a pleasant one.
From st. Louis we travelled
over the Louisville & Nashville
road. This road has a good
smooth road bed and runs ex
cellent trains in charge of po
lite, courteous ira insmen and
makes good time consequently
our trip was pleasa t one.
The people whom we visit
tied made our visit so pleasant
that we stayed five weeks in
stead of three as we had in.
tended.
Our trip on the L & N was
across Southern Illinois aud
Southwest Indiana to Evans
vile, Indiana, crossing the Ohio
River at Henderson, KY, theuce
across Western Kentucky to
Guthrie on the Tennessee line.
AT Gutrie we changed cars to
the Memphis branch and went
to Bowling Green, KY" where
we struck the main Cincinnati
Nashville line. Through South
ern Kentucky a drouth prevail
ed and crops are lot very good,
The soil in that part of the
State is red. 1t is said that
iron gives it that color. The
soil is rich and very productive.
From Bowling Green we went
to Glasgow Junction.
There we had the privilege of
paying 80 each for a round trip
to Mammoth Cave, only 81
miles.
From Glasgow Junction 10
the Cave we rode in an anteti.
luvian car drawn by d dummy
ehgine which looked as though
it had been made for many
wears and the track was IN IA
horrible condition making this
a rough trip. During the trip
the engine jumped the track
aud travelled on the ties awhile.
Think possible the engineer was
tired of riding over the rough
rails aud was looking for some,
thing easier. After some de'a y
; engine was again on track and
tram crew had repaired TRACK
we proceeded toward the cave,
over the picturesque mountair

shows it's 20 years of age.
