TO THE TOBACCO RAISERS
OF KENTUCKY.

Carlisle, KY, Feb. l6, 1905.
Editor Mercury:
/ see that you are interested in
the tobacco raisers of the State,
which will ever rebound to your
credit.
I beg of you a short space in
your paper while / give to the
farmers of Kentucky few sug-
gestions.
You truthfully said last week
that the moneyed men of the East
were the masters of the situation.
Let me suggest remedy for this
and nothing is simpler: Let a
time be fixed, say March 1, 1905,
for a convention to be held at
Maysville, KY, composed of one
member from each county in Ken
lucky, Tennessee, Virginia. North
and South Carolina, and there
and then form a corporation, COM
posed of a President, to be elected
by the delegates, and said MEM
bers from said States be the direc-
tors, the main object of which is
to manufacture all of the tobacco
grown in said States, and let that
be the capital.
: The farmers of said States
ought to buy their wheat, corn,
oats, cattle, hogs and sheep from

TO OUR PATRONS.

Some weeks ago we sent notices
to those Of our patrons, who were
in arrears for the Roundabout, as
to the amount, and requesting
settlement. We are glad to say
that quite a large number of them
have responded.
To those who are still in arrears
we wish to give notice that we
shall be compelled to stop their
papers in the near future if they
do not settle. Kindly bear this
in mind and square up. If.

THE CAPITOL.

oh! Capitol, a vexing question hast
thou been,
And for place, much legislation
hast thou seen,
Almost, since the first assembly
was convened,
To change you, by some, it best
was deemed.
Until, it was settled by assembly
of ninety-four,
Which left it on the old ground,
just AS before;
And to the commissioners they did
declare,
That they must build the new
house, only there.
They sought Ger the land, every
where,
Until they found a plan, so large,
They could not get 1t on the square,
Thus have they fulfilled their
charge.
And then the gubernatorial chair,
To call, another assembly, did de-
clare,
To find a piece of other ground,
To fit tile plan, they had found.
Ito be continued some other time. }

FINE CROP OF TOBACCO.

By a dispatch from Versailles
to the Courier-Journal, February
16, we learn that: Hon. w. j..
Cannon, of near Midway, has just
finished delivery to V. F. Zeigler,
buyer for The American Tobacco
Company, in this city, his crop of
AZ, IT'S pounds of tobacco, which
he sold at an average of IA cents
per pound. This crop was pro-
duced on twenty-one acres of
land, which is an average yield of
2,275 pounds per acre and an in
come per acre, for single season,
of 1913. 30-three times the esti-
mated value of the land"

reason of this is that you can buy

REUNION KENTUCKY UNI
VERSITY.

One of the most important
movements in the history of Ken
lucky University was inaugurated
Thursday night when it was de-
cided to have reunion of all old
students, alumni and others, dur
ing commencement week in June.
The matter was discussed and
decided upon at a meeting held at
the residence of President Burris
A. Jenkins, at which there were
present Prof. T. B. Mccartney,
Prof. A. R. Milligan, Prof. Henry
Lloyd, J. w. Porter, Enoch Gre
han, President B. A. Jenkins, B.
H. Calhoun, Prof. Milton Elliott
and Judge Mat Walton.
The former students of Ken
lucky University, the direct sue
cessor of the oldest educational
institution west of the Allegheny
Mountains, are scattered all over
the world, and the reunion
planned is upon a scale of such
magnitude that nothing like it
has ever been seen in the South.
A committee will be appointed
to communicate at once with
prominent K. U. students in all
parts of the country. State re-
union committees will be organ
lied and each State organization
will work towards the end of in
teresting all University students
in that State to come to the re-
union. Fully three thousand peo-
pie are expected.
BIG OUTDOOR DINNER.
The feature Of the reunion will
be dinner held on the lawn at
Gratz Park. Four prominent
men will make addresses, among
whom will be Rev. K. L. Powell,
of Louisville.
Arrangements will also be made
for the entertainment of visitors.
Hundreds will be entertained as
guests in the various homes of the
city, while others will be taken
care of at the hotels.
No definite arrangement has yet
been made as to the details of this
great undertaking, but it is the
plan to have compact and COM
plete working organization. The
presence here of three thousand
former students will be of untold
value to Lexington and the day
will be an important one in the
history of Kentucky University,
as we'll as that of the city itself,
as the old students to be thus
brought together are men of dis
tinction, occupying positions of
trust, honor and influence in every
walk of life, professional and pri-
vate.
1t is the desire of the organiza-
ton to see the names of old stu
dents of the college in every State
and country where they are known
to be scattered, and those whose
memory serve them correctly
enough to recall such names and
addresses are requested to COM
municate them. At present Presi-
dent Jenkins will be pleased to
renaiua and take charpa of such
