Was Barbecue and Picnic at White PIsins.
Farmers Came From all Quarters
to Participate.

The heavy rain and threaten
ing weather had no effect on the
tobacco growers meeting given
at White Plains Saturday by the
citizens and merchants of that
place. In spite of unfavorable
weather the crowd gathered
early in the day and by noon
there was a large number pres
ent. Nun Wilson kept the crowd
quiet with his good humored
foolishness until dinner was an
nounced.
After the horny handed sons
of toll and their friends had par
taken of all the delightful bar
becued meats they could con-
veinently carry they adjourned
to the speakers stand where
Felix Ewing, George Snawden
and Ruby Laffoon addressed the
people on the vital questions
that are now agitating the minds
of the farmers in the great dark
tobacco district of Kentucky.
The handled the subject with
considerable skill and made
plain the principles of the Dark
Tobacco Growers Association.
Also the objects they hoped to
accomplish if the farmers in this
district would hold together and
work for the good of themselves
and the organization.
This meeting was one of the
first of its kind to be held in
Hopkins county and will be fol-
lowed by others later on. Prac-
tically all the farmers present at
this meeting joined the organ
ization and the leaders are en-
thusiastic over the result.

NARROW ESCAPE.
Lightning Strikes Buggy in Which Mrs
wendelNn and Mrs. Buck Oates
We're Riding.

Mrs. Bud Wendelkin, Of this
city, and Mrs. Buck Oates, of
White Plains, had a narrow es-
cape from death by lightning a
few days since while returning
from Nortonville to White
Plains.
They had reached Brakes
creek when a violent rain began
to fall accompanied by consider
able electrical display, They
urged the horse forward as fast
as possible, lightning playing all
about them in hlinding flashes.
Just as the we've crossing Dsake's
creek bridge a lash of lightning
struck the buggy in which the
two ladies were seated and for a
moment they were blinded by
smoke. MIR. Oates, who was rid
ing few PAGES in front, was SO
stunned by the shock il was sew
eral minutes before he could 80
to the assistance of the ladies'.
When he did arrive he found
that the buggy had been torn in
to splinters aud the frightened
horse had broken loose and ran
off.
Mrs. Oates was uninjured but
Mrs. Wendelkin was found to be
unconscious A Iiasty examina-
ton revealed the fact that she
was still living and she was
placed in the buggy Mr.. Oates
had been using and hurriedly
driven TO the Oates home. She
revived before reaching there,
however and it was found that
her arm was con sideraDly burn
ed and blackened. 1t is some
thing wonderful that these lad
les escaped as fortunately as
they did as the buggy was liter
ally torn to pieces every spoke
being twisted from the fellows
and the wood work, and iron of
the vehicle separated.
Mr.. Wendelken, who is an en-
gineer on the yard engine at this
place, was notified of his wlfe's
injury and at once went to her.
She is getting along nicely and
will sustain no permanent in
jury from the accident.

wheat Crop the Largest Since 1901.

A Chicago correspondent of the
New York Herald has made a
careful estimate of the wheat
crop of 1905, which he considers
the largest since 1901.
The winter wheat crop in IA
States is estimated at 34S, 900, 900
bushels. To Kansas is assigned
rs, 100000, to Nebraska $4,000
600 and to Missouri $1,000, 900,
these three being the largest pro-
ducers. To Kentucky are as
signed 100000 bushels. The
total winter wheat crop in all
the States is put at Al, 100000
bushels.
The spring wheat crop is in
volved in more uncertainty, be-
cause the harvest is further
away, but on a basis of the pres
emit condition it is figured at $780,
100000 bushels. Adding the two
together, we get a grand total OF
$40, 000,0 900 bushels. This gives
the largest since 1901, when the
final figures were 74S, AGO, DIS
bushels.

The Month Of June.

June is the month when roses

when young corn grows and bare

month la which the fishes shoal

ming hole. He may deny and
cause doubt, but, ah, his shirt
is wrong side out! The horsehy
comes and stays till fall and
|punctures the kitchen wall; the
June bug tells you he is here and
dabs you on the other ear the
moth nests in your winter clothes
and insects gambol up your nose.
The picnic season is at hand and
the Sunday school engages the

waist and shocks her mother
with her taste. The housewife
makes gooseberry pie that's full
of juice and baccili.

There was a creamery In Iowa not
many months ago that couldn't figure
out any overrun from Its butter and
was just about facing disaster imam
cially. An expert was sent for. He
came. and the first thing he noticed
was that the man at the weigh can was
taking samples with a short handled
dipper and evidently getting the sam
pies right OF the top. Here was the
leak. No wonder there was no over
run! The man at the weigh can didn't
know any better. and the buttermaker
was 50 busy with other things that he
hadn't noticed the trouble, though he
must have known that his job was in
jeopardy through q lack Of profits and
q very formidable presence Of losses.
A test was made Of the weigh mans
sample and another properly taken.
Tho difference In results was astonish-
ing. This Is only another illustration
OF the importance Of a practical man
at the weigh can and the need Of inces-
sanity watching every corner.-Cream-
