BEET CULTURE
Attracts Several Kentucky
Farmers to Colorado.

Quite crowd of farmers from
Christian, Trigg and Todd counties
left Tuesday for Ordway, Colo. Mr..
Geo. S. Wharton and Garrett Sallee
have already made arrangements to
locate and engage in sugar beet cul-
ture, which promises a net profit of
from $40 to 500 an acre. With them
went as prospecters Messrs. D. M.
Butler, Robt. Fife, Bep Rutherford,
John Robinson and Peyton Day, of
Todd county, and Matt Winfree, of
Casky. Mr.. Winfree has sold his
fine farm near Casky, known as the
Roberts place, for $4,000 to Mr..
Hugh F. Hancock, of Union county.
The price was $50 an acre. He may
also buy a beet farm in Colorado.
Mr.. Wharton is a son-in-law of
Mr.. Winston Henry, of Casky. His
wife and child will go to Colorado as
soon as he can build a house on
the farm he expects to buy,

BUYERS ARE
COMING In.
All Differences Adjusted In
the Tobacco
Market.
ALL is HARMONY NOW.
Benefit Will Be Permanent
Now That Fight Is
Won.

Announcement is made by an Of
fetal of the Dark District Associa-
ton that all differences between the
tobacco buyers and the Association
have been adjusted.
The buyers are coming in from
all directions and paying fair and re-
munerative prices for tobacco held
by the Association. The long fight
is practically won and the planters
of the dark district can price their
own tobacco.
Sales so far on the Hopkinsville
market have been mainly 81 low
grades of tobacco, but these grades
have brought nearly double the
prices paid last year. Many farmers
are getting more money for their
lugs than they did for the best leaf
last season.
The ridiculously low prices of last
year meant starvation. We will see
no more of this condition of affairs.
The buying contingent will soon adj
just themselves to conditions and all
will be happy again.
The farmers have shown wonder
full degree Of patience and self-de-
NAL. 1t just took that and firmness
to win as they have done. They have
fought thestrongest trust and money
power on this continent, They have
had to fight all buying interests
wherever located and without q dol
lar in the organization, all on faith.

LECTURE COURSE
HOpkinsville People Appreci-
ate Good Entertainments.
WE MUST ALL UNITE.
Nothing But Superior At
fractions the Coming
Season.
WE MUST ALL UNITE.

Last winter our people enjoyed
the best series of entertainments
ever presented at the Tabernacle.
The Tabernacle representatives of
each congregation in the city very
wisely elected Mr.. H. L. Mcpherson
manager and empowered him to ar
range for a season course of popu-
lar and respectable entertainments,
with the view Of at least paying ac-
cumulated interest on the debt hang
ing over the Tabernacle. Mr.. Nc
Pherson proved equal to the occa-
sion.
Again has he undertaken to do the
will Of the Tabernacle Board. He
has formulated his plans and secured
a number Of entertainments, a list Of
which was published a short time
since. For the coming course he re-
ports fine success thus far in selling
course tickets and is reaching out to
the people in the country who will
enjoy the good things in store for
them and will need no urging to buy
season tickets when the matter is
properly brought to their attention.
All who hold season tickets get ad-
vantage of the extra numbers,
which are promised if the season
ticket saleswill Justify the outlay..If
two extras are given, this will reduce
the cost per attraction to the hold
er of season tickets to just 20 cents
each, and this should be quite an
inducement to all to lay the matter
before their friends, as by this small
outlay you help the sale of tickets,
help yourself also. Mr.. Mcpherson
promises that the extras, if given,
will be fully up to the standard of
the other numbers on the course.
Last year about 425 season tickets
were sold. This year 800 must be
sold to ''pay out" as the course will
cost about twice the amount paid
last year. Now let's all get together
on this proposition, as we are all in
terested, and a good course should
be supported here, and the 800 tick
cts easily sold.

Auto Owners IncreasinR.

According to reliable reports there
are something like 10000 automobiles
in use on the roads Of New York state,
while the records on file at the office
of the secretary of state show 5000
professional motorists registered I'M
der the requirements Of the motor We
hicle law. This indicates tremen-
dous growth Of automobiling in the
Empire State. for in 1901, which is the
first year that automobiles required
registration, there were only 100 ma
chimes owned and operated in the state.
Although not all registered machines
are owned by persons residing In New
York. at least 10 per cent of them can
be so rated. OF course some motorists
own two and three machines. Colonel
John Jacob Astor heads the list Of in
dIviduals with twenty-five Of various
styles and horsepower under his name
at Albany.
Next to him comes W. X. Wander
bilt. Jr., who ia credited with fourteen.
The largest owners are the great de-
partment stores and mercantile eStab-
lishments. which operate their delivery
system by this means.

The Monkeys Role,

A monkey is not fortunately COM

theless, to New York young woman
by friend returning from a voyage in
the tropics. From the moment Of his
entrance into the house the monkey
showed that he would be a strenuous
pet to look after, and for the next hour
the family was kept busy trying to
repair the damage he did. The mon
key made his way to the kitchen and
in the temporary absence Of the cook
snatched part of chicken which lay
on the table. Coming in presently, the
cook missed the chicken and looked
about in surprise to see what had be-

Hunting Muskrats at Night.

There are three ways by which musk
rats are captured-by shooting, by trap
ping and by spearing. A few may be
secured at night by ere" ing as noise
lessly as possible along the creek edges
and watching for them to crawl up on
the bank to feed. In this they are very
dainty. Having secured a favorite
root, they approach cautiously the wa
ter's edge and dip it in and rub of the
mud, dip it ip again and again until it
Is perfectly clean and suited to their
taste, when it is eaten with evident rel
ish, provided the sportsman Is sufti-
GENTLY interested in the process to
wait A boat, however, is usually used,
as the rats can be more easily and
quietly approached on the water. In
this case two persons occupy the same
boat, the sportsman requiring a push
err. AS this sport can only be engaged
in at night, the sky must be compare
lively clear in order that the hunter
may have the advantage of the moon
light, or, better still, bright starlight.
A headlight, with reflector, is, however,
sometimes used on the bow of the boat,
and this arrangement is frequently
quite successful during the darker
nights to one sufficiently well acqua:nt-
ed with the hunting grounds.-Balti-

This meeting will also be held at the

The river mussel and some other
fresh water bivalves often contain
beautiful pearls. In Saxony the trade
in these dates from 1910 and a code OF
rules to regulate it. The fish are placed
In prepared beds and examined every
five years. From two to ten pearls are
yielded by each. A similar and profta-
BILE pearl cultivation is carried on in
Sweden and in other parts Of Europe.
The fact that grains Of sand and other
foreign substances that intrude within
the shells are covered In course OF time
with layers of pearl has been taken
advantage Of by the willy Chinese.
Opening the shells Of suitable bivalves
and holding them open with wooden
wedges, they insert small objects Of
wood, stone or metal and restore the
shellfsh uninjured to their beds. lrri-
tated by these pieces, the mollusks soon
cover them with coatings Of mother-of-
pearl of bright purity and luster and
thus convert them into articles OF con-
siderable commercial yalue.-London

The Old National Road.

When the panic of 1881 swept over
the country the national road was
barely halfway through Illinois. No
work was done on it after 1911. Two
years before, however, line of stages
and post routes had been started from
Cumberland, in Maryland, to Terre
Haute, in Indiana, from which latter
place there was n triweekly service for
passengers and mail to Springfield, Ill.
This marked the first overland travel
from east to west. Passengers and
mail bags were jolted along in cum
bcrsome coaches, each with four
strong horses On account Of the high
rates travel was confined mainly to
merchants and lawyers. The passen-
ger, with an allowance Of fifty pounds
of baggage, paid at the rate Of 10
cents a mtte. 1t is noted that Clay
and Lincoln were among the frequent

spurioos product has been developed to
a remark .,ble degree. He gave an Illus
tration Of his skill the other day. On
that table in the corner there were
piled up a couple hundred half dollars.
Apparently they were all sound and
genuine specimens from the govern
mcnt mint. Our expert walked iuto the
room, and, giving one glance at the pile
of halves twenty-five feet distant, he
quietly remarked:
There's counterfeit In that stack
"He then stepped up to the table and
pulled a coin from out Of the middle OF
the pile. 1t was tested and found to be
spurious. 1 asked the man to tell how
he discovered the counterfeit.
"'By the reflection of the light he
replied. The rays cast from that coin
were wholly different from those sent
out by the other pieces. That coin stood

ceremony the ruler advanced to the
front of the balcony on the second door

that it was the royal sanction for the

the ruler gave his permission for the
sun to rise i'm the morning the man re-
piled that Tie sun must always rise be-
fore the ruler, but that it could never
go down unless the royal hand waved
approval. The king who did this was
the sultan Of Zanzibar.
Il hardly believe that he himself was
sincere in thinking his permission nee
