WE WANT FARMERS.

While South Carolina seems
to be paying particular at
tention TO the importation of
expert mill operatives. weav-
ers and artisans to work in her fac
tories. the idea of the Southwestern
Kentucky and Southern Illinois I'M
migration association we are assured,
is to attract German. Swiss ald Sean
dinavian farmers to this section to
develop our vase land, vary the
products and stimulate the agricultu-
raj industry of this part of the coun-
try. No doubt. in a degree the fac
tories will be benefited in many ways
just as are all other classes of indus
try. The increased population will
demand more clothing and other ne
cessities of life. and some of the
children of these new homes may
take up factory work, but to no great
er extent than the children of people
already residents here. II is not to
overcome any existing deficiencies,
actual or alleged in the local labor
situation that the association was or
ganized and Its plans promulgated.
The labor situation always is one
that is well to be let alone. We have
thousands Of acres Of untitled, but
productive land under proper cultiva-
ton, which should be adding to the
annual wealth of the community.
These hardy. experienced and PAINS
taking farmers accustomed to rails
ing crops on the long used soil of
crowded Europe. where an acre is
made to support a greater popula-
tion than an hundred acres in this
country, arb Just the persons to
make this waste land bear new crops.
With this understanding. let us unite
In bringing farmers to McCracken
county for the general good of the
community. regardless OF the needs
of any particular line Of industry.

The bill creating park commissions
for cities of the second class was
drawn up in its terms especially for
the benefit of the city of Lexington,
which had parks but no park board,
and was passed by a Democratic gen
eral assembly and approved by a
Democratic governor. The whole
law is extremely creditable and one
that a Republican councilman of
Paducah should have no reason TO be
ashamed of, had he carried 1t there
in his pocket. But, under the cir
cumstances, The Sun prefers to allow
the horrors and responsibilities at
tached to the performance to fall
where they are due. The only thing
We in Paducah have to do with It, is
to make the best use Of the money
and create park system that will be
a credit to the city and a blessing to
its poor.

The park bond issue is a simple,
honest plan Of the board of park
commissioners, who have the interest
of the city at heart and have hit upon
this as the least expensive and most
efficacious manner of creating a
park system and realizing for the
present generation the quickest bene-
fits from it. The plan contemplates
the issuance of the bonds and the i'm
mediate undertaking of complete
park system that will afford to ev-
cry section of the city a breathing
place: that will redeem eyesores,
and increase the value of surround
ing property. while advertising the
city and making II attractive. A
sinking fund will be created and this
by the time the last bond accrues,
will be sufficient to retire the whole
issue. AS to their honesty of inten-
tons and business acumen We pre-
sent no argument except the names
of the park commissioners: DR.. d.

Reed. George Walters and Edwin ].

WHAT WE NEED.

We have many thousands of acres
of uncultlvated land in western Ken
lucky and southern Illinois; thous-
ands of acres standing in waste that
will not be occupied and developed
for many years to come, by natural
processes such as has been going on
in the past.
The farmers throughout the sec
ton, have difficulty in securing labor
to care for the land already under
cultivation. Industrial enterprises
and business concerns throughout
the section embraced within our
work, are practically all short of Ia
Dor. The negroes can be depended
upon, only in exceptional cases, the
rule being that they are practically
worthless for supplying the shortage
of general labor. 1t is impossible at
the present time to secure ample
white help. male or female. in the
factories, on the farms, on public
and private works, or in the homes
of our people. These are facts gener-
ally admitted by every we'll informed
person..
The We-tern Kentucky and South
ern Illinois immigration association
propose to remedy these conditions
We propose to bring into the section
embraced by our work, a desirable
class OF farmers from the northwest
part of our own country and from
abroad who will occupy and improve
our vacant lands. and bring into this
section hundreds of boys and girls.
young men and young women of the
better class. who will solve the prob
lem of ample labor for all our peo-
pie and business interests. These
conditions have existed in other
parts of the country; they have even
been more serious. than with us.
These conditions have been remedied
as we propose to remedy our local
conditions.
We are prepared to put our best
efforts into this work In the interest
of all the people embraced In west
ern Kentucky and southern Illinois.
We cannot do this, however, with
ont the support and encouragement
of the farmers and business people,
directly interested In the results of
the work we have undertaken.
II you, Mr.. Farmer and Mr.. Bust
ness Man. desire to see the condi-
lions improved, the shortage of la
Dor in every department entirely re-
moved, and every piece of land in
the section embraced in our work
occupied by a thrifty self-supporting,
intelligent farmer, then come for
ward ut this time. and encourage
this association by promptly becom-
ing a member and use your good Of
fees to assist the association.
In order to get results desired We
must do a great deal of advertising
through the proper channels, and
missionary work in the proper way,
all of which will require liberal A.
nancial assistance. Our plan of finan-
cling this work has been made so
reasonable that no one can have an
excuse for not aiding the association
to bring about the results desired.
We appeal to all men, farmers

city with parks. where they can rest
and play in the shade, as Christian

The Rigors of Cold Weather.


Probably at no time of the year
does the physical condition OF the
body demand more attention than
just at this season, the beginning Of
cold weather.
Let the system be run down, or the
blood impoverished to any extent and
the cold weather goes hard with you.
Naturally the thing to do is to
get the circulation In good order and
the whole system toned up to stand
the rigcrs of winter.
Some physicians prescribe the dat
ly cold bath, others seek recourse in
blood tones and other stimulants.
but. probably the most rational treat
ment of all Is the Osteopathic. as
Osteopathy, more quickly, and more
effectively rights the blood flow and
restores normal conditions than any
other known treatment.
0steopathy Is only natural
treatment. a method OF bioodless sur
gical manipulatIons TO remove any
distractions interfering with the pro-
per transference OF nerve force, or
natural blood flow, or the other fu-
ids, to the organ or part Involved.
] should like to have you call and
let me tell of some Paducah people

thy has done much for. and also to

ticular case.

Do you believe that daw breakers
may be encouraged or discouraged by
the action of the police judge? If
you believe the magistrate, before
whom is presented every law
breaker in the city and who hears
the cases before they ever reach the

factor in the community, We advise
you to vote for E. W. Bagby for po-
lice judge.

barber shop to get shaved After
being properly seated and the lather
about half applied the barber was
called to an adjoining room where he
was detained for some time. The bar
Der had In the shop a pet monkey
which was continually initiating its
master. As soon as the latter left the
room the monkey grabbed the brush
and proceeded to finish lathering the
Irlshman's face. After doing this he
took a razor from its case and stropped
It and then turned to the Irishman to
shave him.
