LEAD IN BOURBON.
The Metal Is Being Mined on a
Farm Near MiIIerSburQ,
Kentucky.

For several years a lead mine
on the farm of j. +. Caldwell.
near Millersburg in Bourbon
county. has been operated in a
very small way. 1t has been
known for a long time that lead
existed there. The only question
was whether it was in paying
quantities. Analysis showed the
metal to be of good quality.
About eighteen months ago "A COM
pany with small capital was or
ganized and the work was pushed
as rapidly as circumstances would
permit. Several cars of ore. have
been shipped.
For the past few weeks capital
lists and experts have been ON the
ground investigating conditions.
A company has been organized
with capital stock of 500, 900.
A smelter and other necessary ma
chinely will be ordered at once.
Work will begin with large num-
Der of hands as soon as the weather
will permit. a sample of the ore

in order to ascertain the kind of
machinery necessary to he used.
The company is negotiating for
leases ON the farms of DR.. W.

The fact that many people right

The right way to cure cold in

where the disease germs are and
renders them harmless.

BURLfY SOCIETY
Secures Pledges of SIS Per Cent.
Of 1906 Crop.
Great Meeting of the Growers of
White Burnley is Held at
Winchester.


The success of the Burley To-
bacco Society was assured when
the District Board, after the final
count made at Winchester. Jan
uary /. of the amounts pledged
by each county in the district. de
clared that at least 50 per cent. of
the 1906 crop was now in pool.
The board also announced that 4
per cent. would be bought by
large dealers and put in the pool,
making the total 50 per cent.
When these announcements were
made the enthusiasm was unbound
ed. The fact that the victory was
won by only 8 per cent. shows
hoy uncertain the result was until
th@Aast county was heard from.
Representatives of the Burley
Tobacco Society from the counties
of Central Kentucky and few in
Ohio and Indiana met for the pur-
pose of determining the per cent
age OF the 500 crop which had
beer pledged. The meeting was
attended by committeeman from
each county. and in addition by
many growers and independent
buyers from various parts of the
State, and by city warehousemen
and trust representatives. fully
500 visitors being present.
The morning hours were spent
estimating the returns, which re-
- - -iIr finding that they fell
short of the required fifty per cent
by a small margin. Cmcuses of
the committeeman were then held,
and it was decided that the best
policy would be to make personal
canvass of the independent buyers
and dealers present. BY this
means $500 acres were added dur
ing the forenoon.
At 2 o'clock the men went to
the opera house and were called
to order by II. b. Sherman, the
head of the Burley movement.
Mr., Sherman said in part:
with such a crowd we should
be able to move the world, but let
us be patient that we may accom-

all be permitted to go home proud
of our efforts.

had brought to their attention lately
the extraordinary value OF the Norway
poplar, a near relative of the common
cottonwood, possesses fine qualities
that bid fair to raise the prestige OF
the whole cottouw GOD family.
This cottonwood is shrouded in
mystery, 50 lar as its origin is con-
cerned. It bears no Cotton and is re-
produced entirely from cuttings. The
tree grows straight aud lean and it is
said that the bark never scales OF
cracks. The wood is straight-grained
and suitable. for lumber. 1t splits
