KENTUCKY FARMER HAS
 MELONS IN JANUARY
Lee Hancock Keeps Vines Protected From Winter Frost and Raises
 Delicious Fruit.

HOPKINSVILLE, Ky, January 27.- When Lee Hancock told the people who bought country produce from him last summer that he would be able to SUD- ply them with watermelons in January, he was laughed at, but he has made good his promise, and will have crop of as fine specimens of juicy melons as one would expect to see in the good old summer time.
 MT. Hancock says the dry weather of the late summer and fall is respon- sible for the melons at thie time. He planted the melonsin the tobacco patch, both being put out late in the season, and he cultivated the two crops togeth- CT. Both turned out unusually well and fine tobacco and delicious melous grew together.
 When cold weather began to come the vines were covered with straw. and the melons thus protected, and they are now ready for the market.

SCHOOL STATISTICS 0F INTEREST ID
 PUBLIC SUPERINTENDENT KELLNER FIX PLAINS WHY SCHOOLS MAY
 BE SEUT DOWN.
BIG INCREASE OF ATTENDANCE
MONEY ALLOWED BY LAW INsUr- FICIENr TO TAKE CARE OF
 LARGER ATTENDANCE.

Interesting statistics have been fur. nished the Silver Belt by School Super intenlent w. O. Kellner, bearing upon the increase in school attendance iI Globe district, the corresponding in. crease in the expense of maintenance and the reasons why it is likely that this year the term will be cut down to eight months, closing about April 30 instead of continuing for the nine months, as ordinarily.
 The figures, compiled by the school superintendent after thorough canvass of the district, are as follows: During the school year beginning July l, 1907, and ending June 30. 1908, school district No l enrolled 975 pu. pills and had an average daily attend ance of 642 pupils and employed seven teen teachers at total salary of $l.. 4S6.67 a month, and one janitor at sal ary of $l00, total regular expenditure of $l,5s6.67 month
 For the current term, the enrolment amounts to 1918 pupils, with an average daily attendance of S66 pupils, 224 more than last term, which necessitated the employment of six additional teachers, making a total of twenty-three teachers and increasing the salary list on that account to $2203 month, It was also found necessary to employ two more janitors. making the total salary for the three janitors $230 a month, all of which brings the grand total of maintenance to $2433 month. or $s36 more than last year
 The Silver Belt has already explained that. under the law, which is specific on the subject, the school appropriation for the term was made on an estimate made by the school superintendent, based on last year attendance and al. lowing minimum increase of only , per cent for greater cost of, mainten- anee contingent upon increase of at tendance. With an appropriation made inadequate by this restriction, there re- main but two alternatives: either, to levy special tax to provide the funds, or to shut down the schools when the funds on hand are exhausted, which will be at the end of the coming month.
 Superintendent Kellner, at the com pletion of his tour of inspection, said he had found every one of the twenty two rooms in school district No. l so well conducted that he is\ firm in the conviction that the district never had
 
 teachers than now in charge of the schools, from the superintendent to the lowest grade.

.CHOP SUEY" BILL
AND TRUST TAX
Congress and the House Wrestling
with the TWO Important Measures
Today.

WASHINGTON, June 22.-Under
manipulation of chairman Tawney,
the house appropriations committee,
chop suey bill' is assuming shape.
The measure is usually called the
urgent deficiency BILL" as into 1T is
dumped everything that cannot reas-
onably be put into other big appropri-
alton bills. One of the items to be APP
propriated is $4,000 for the Presi-
dents travelling expenses and another
like amount for the governments par
ticipation in the Belgium exposition
Of next year.
The perfected corporation tax
amendment will probably be ready for
presentation to congress on Thursday.
The stumbling block in preparing the
amendment, Is the matter OF bonds.
There are differences OF opinion as to
whether the interest on bonds be limit
ed In calculating the met earnings of
corporations. Some members of the
cabinet, notably Knox. believe the law
taxing all earnings above and over the
operating expenses to be constitution
Wickersham today Is trying to frame
up an amendment which will stand the
test. One feature practically agreed
upon, Is that corporations earning less
than $4,000 be exempt from tax Cor.
porations are opposed to the entire
scheme and regard 1t as means of
publicity for their inside workirLs.
