HEALTHY PLANTS
Require the Most Careful Attention
rs Well as Good Soil.

Did you ever see a rosebush which
despite the most benehcientf envi-
ronment of-soil-of sunshine Of
atmosphere--seemed never to achieve
a healthy growth?
A ton of manure will not help a
plant that has a canker eating out
its heart.
You must destroy the cause before
you can remove the effect
You cannot cure Danruff and Bald
ness by rubbing on hair lotions, and
rubbing in vaseline, etc.
You must look TO the cause of the
trouble-it's a germ at the root OF
your hair which causes it to fall out
Newbros Herpicide destroys the
germ and healthy hair is the sure re-
suit.

Alcohol and Its Uses.

The question of the dietie and
medicinal position OF alcohol Is with
us once again. number of we'll
known physicians and surgeons. to-
gether with certain professors OF
physiology. have felt It their duty TO
issue a collective expression Of opin-
ion in favor of the value of alcoholic
beverages both In health and disease.
1t is not difficult to identify the
circumstances which have led TO this
step. Not many months have elapsed
since a prominent metropolitan sur
geon took the opportunity offered by
the meeting Of the British Medical
association at Toronto to denounce
the use of alcohol in every shape and
form; to proclaim its utter useless
ness, and even its pernicious action,
in the treatment of disease; and gem
orally to condemn It as a dangerous
land poisonous agent. Had these
propositions been presented merely
as the personal opinions of the ora
tor they might easily have been

Traction than a convenient restate-
ment of what the same authority had
said on many previous occasions. But
with them was associated at least a
suggestion that such views represent
ed the general attitude. of the profes-
sion in this country, and the official
position of the speaker lent, as was
evident from the criticisms Of the lay
press. an added significance to this
statement.
Considering what is the common
custom and habit of medical practi-
Itioners on this side of the Atlantic in
regard to the use of alcohol, at least
in the treatment of disease, IL is not
a matter for wonder that a number
.of clinical teachers should, even some
what late in the day, have determined
to put on record views which are in
direct conflict with those presented
to the Toronto meeting. Now that
the issue is Joined it is to be hoped
that its discussion will be conducted
in fair and scientific fashion. and
that from It will result both light and
leading. Hospital.

MUSICAL TREAT
AT PARK CASINO
Mrs. John A. Cathey and The
Misses Burrows
Critical Audience Delighted With
Vocal and Instrumental Pro-
gram Last Night.
VARIETY OF ENTERTAINMENT

The music lovers who failed to hear
Mrs. John A. Cathey and her concert
company at Wallace park Casino last
night, missed one of the rare musl-
cal treats of the season, but will have
the opportunity each night this week
to hear them, with a change of pro-
gram. Few entertainments In Padu-
cab during the regular season at the
Kentucky can compare IN quality and
enjoyment giving features with the
program at the Casino this week. II
IS impossible 90 conjecture what the
public expected in this engagement,
but the company won the merited APP
proval OF critical musicians and those
who class music under the general
head of amusements, last night.
The program consisted OF numer-
Gus songs. standard and classical, by
Mrs. Cathey accompanied by the
Misses Burrow on the piano and vlo-
lin, solos by the Misses Burrow and
tonight Miss Nellie Burrow will give
representations.
Mrs. Cathey's soprano voice Is
rich, full and sympathetic. Ease and
accuracy and clearness, free from
mechanical effects, characterize her
singing, and she has not harsh note
in her throat. He program last
night covered a wide range, showing
her versatility and training to the
best advantage.
Miss Shellye Burrow. who performs
upon the violin, is mistress OF her IN
strument. Her grace of motion and
the spirit of her execution combine
with perfection Of tone, to bewltch
her audience
Miss nellie Burrow. besides playing
all the Accomplishments on the piano
rendered two solos on that instru-
ment, that demonstrated the strength
and suppleness OF her fingers and
wrists. and her understanding of the
technical requirements of her profes-
sion. Besides, she displayed rare
of the meaning OF the
compositions. and power Of interrre-
tation.

IN BOARD OF DIRECTORS DE-
PLANTERS ASSOCIATION.
Barbecue at Guthrie Abandoned for
Reasons OF Expediency
Alone.

Guthrie, Ky, Aug. 1S.-The board
.of general managers of the Planters
Protective association Of Kentucky.
Tennessee and Virginia IS sending
out circular letters denying that fric-
ton exists in the association and ex-
planning why the big barbecue usual
ly given here each year was done
away with this year. The following is
the letter which has been sent out:
Guthrie, KY. Aug 10, 1907-We
notice with regret an article in some
of the leading newspapers saying that
at the last meeting OF the board Of
directors of the Planters Protective
association of Kentucky, Tennessee
and Virginia, held at Guthrie. Ky,
July 1920, there was much friction
among the members and as a conse-
quence the annual barbecue was in
definitely postponed.
This is misleading. We wish 70
state to the public that there was no
friction among the members of this
board. Whatever friction or differ
ences were manifested belonged
strictly to those not of the board of
directors.
The question Of the annual barbe-
cue came before the board as a bus
mess proposition, was discussed and
disposed of as such. For many rea-
sons it was deemed more practical,
for the present, 10 dispense with the
barbecue, first, because of the ex-
'pense: second, there were many of
our western Kentucky and Tennessee
people who, because Of the railroad
accommodations. were kept away
from home too long to think of at
tending.
Then, the barbecue would have
called for very earnest work and a
great deal of time from every official
and county chairman in the BLACK
Patch" We feel that this time and
effort can be used to greater advant-
age for our membership directed in
other channels. Yours truly,
J. W. DUNN,

POLK PRINCE,

A motor car dashed along the coun-

suddenly upon a man with gun on
his shoulder and a weak looking old
dog beside him. The dog was direct

chauffeur sounded HIS horn, but the
dog did not moye-until he was
struck. After that he did not move.
The motor stopped, and one of the
men got out and came forward. He

mand for the timber of this tree
shows conclusively that the invest
ment will prove immensely profitable.
In every region of the United
States there Is at least one forest tree
and generally there are several forest
trees. which can be planted with a
complete assurance of commercial
success If the plantation is properly
established and given proper care.
The government has made a very
careful study OF most of the forest
plantations in the United States. It's
publications on tree planting may be
had free of charge upon application
to the forest service, U. S. depart
ment of agriculture, Washington. D..
c. The studies on which they were
based were made especially for the
benefit of farmers and other land
owners, and to prevent the waste OF
of dollars annually lost by
planting the wrong forest trees or by
improper care of plantations.
From the manner in which our nat
ural timber has been cut it is clear
that each region will have to be made
as nearly self-supporting in timber
growth as possible. The lesson of
the past is that the right forest trees
grown in the right way will bring
big profit.

the establishment of an International
permanent court of arbitration, and
the document thus drafted will be de

Too Much Theorizing for Action.
The advancement OF the idea OF a
permanent arbitration court can
hardly expect any more useful help
from the present conference. Its ad-
vocates are ready to admit that It will
be delicate plant. but plead that 1t
is displacing nothing else and should
be given a chance The fact that Il
Is displacing nothing else Is not count

skeptics. who reply that there is no

premature to drag it IN now to have
the conference blamed for It's utter
barrenness.

elected United States Senator from
Colorado last Wednesday. He an
nounced his resignation as an Of
fetal from all business concerns
with which he has been connected.
He imagines he can, or says he
will, serve the people in the capac-
ity to which he has been elected,
but his training, prejudcies and
leaning are all toward the monopoly
idea and the interests in which he
is concerned. The leopard cannot
change his spots. He has never
given any evidence, of which the
public is aware, of his ability or
fitness for United States Senator,
and his immense wealth alone has
helped secure this honor from Col
orado. The combinations leading
up to this result were all carried
out in the local election of Repre-
sentatives, whose campaign ex-
penses doubtless were freely paid
