In his report 90 the Kentucky
troops Major William l.. Buck, OF
the Third Infantry, says that the
officers and men will show great
improvement after being in camp
of instruction with regular troops.
he recommends the detail of a reg
ular officer as instructor during the
whole year, and adds that if suit
able officer is sent it will undoubt-
ediy result in great benefit. Major
Buck says there should be thor
ough reorganization of the staff de-
partment and heads thereof selected
for fitness and because of personal
interest in the welfare of the State
Guard. He says there is practically
no Adjutant Generals Department,
no Inspector Generals Department,
no Judge Advocate General Depart
ment, no Quartermaster General S
Department or a Medical Depart
ment
Major Buck believes the fact that
the men are paid nothing makes 1t
impossible to exact proper discip-
line. He recommends that there
should be on hand a sufficient sup
ply of all equipments to put two
regiments of 600 men each in the
field, and if every effort on the part
of the state is made 10 have an effi-
cient small force, rather than one

turning out better than was ex-
pected,
Corn has made a good growth,
but many fields are late.
Tobacco is doing fairly well.
There has been too much rain in
some portions of the dark tobacco

the hurley districts it is needing
more rain.
Oats are being harvested; winter
oats are fairly good, but as a whole
the crop will be short.
The hay crop in the western sec

the central and eastern portions.
Pastures are needing more ram

they are in good condition.
