ment, ETC.. 1t has been found impossible
for one man to do the work. A second

the filling. The necessity Of the ex-
ira laborer is eliminated in the sack

vention of a Washington man. This
apparatus was designed primarily to
provide device by which bags could
be quickly and economically filed by
one man. A hopper is provided. to

MARKET BASKET

Owing to the raise in the price
of wheat, grocers are looking for an
advance in flour at almost any
time. Flour still continues to Sc.
at $40 per sack of SO pounds.
Potatoes have advanced to Sc
and 80 cents per sack. The former
rice was rs and so cents. Other
advances in potatoes are looked for
Don.
The wholesalers have advanced
! The price of cabbage nearly one
cent per pound, but the retail price
| Is still at three and three and one
half cents.
Lard is selling at from SIS to 95
cents for five pound pail. The
95 cent price represents the figure
that the grocers charge who sell it
at the regular margin.
There was five cent advance in
the second grade of butter this
week-the poor mans kind-bring-
ing the price to As cents, the same
as the first grade. In other words,
the second grade has been elm
mated and a common price of 45
cents fixed for butter, in most Of
the grocery stores.
In some stores the two prices
still prevail, 40 and 45 cents, while
in other stores the price of the best
butter has gone to so cents and the
second grade to As.
we are holding the price of but
ter down TO 45 cents at loss to
ourselves" said one retailer this
morning. 1T costs Is per cent to
do business and we are selling but
ter at 1919 per cent increase. so
YOU see we are losing money on
butter at As cents. The wholesaler
fixes the price and we are bound to
fall in line with his figures.
Butter, however, has gone up all
over the country, and Spokane is
not the only place hit in this par
ticular. If it does not go over so

CHANGE or RULE
FOR CONVENTION
IS AGREED UPON

BY resolution Of the Democratic
committee OF the Second senatorial
district, the rules governing the rep
resentation In the Democratic sena-
torial convention here April 81. were
changed so that the wisest politician
in the district could not figure out
the result. The resolution provides
that each precinct In the district will
be represented by one delegate, who
shall cast the entire Democratic vote
of his precinct for his candidate. The
vote for each precinct is to be based
on the vote cast for William Jen-
nings Bryan in 1908. Under the rule
McCracken county delegates will cast
4,127. as compared with Ballard s
2.117. That seems big odds for Nc
Cracker county, but 1t is considered
far more equitable than the original
plan, for delegate from each pre-
cinct for every 200 votes cast for
Bryan or fraction OF 100 over. BY
that rule McCracken county would
have had SO delegates, Ballard and
Marshall is each. and Carlisle 3. Nc
Cracker would have needed only two
more votes TO control the convention.
By this means the other three coun-
ties will have a majority of the votes.

CHECKS STOLEN
FROM MAILS SENT
BY PADUCAH BANK

The theft Of $4,000 in checks from
the mail has caused the postoffice in
spectors to get busy, and II Is said
they are on a clew that will lead to
the arrest Of the guilty person. About
ten days ago an envelope. containing
IS, 900 in checks. was mailed by the
First National bank of Paducah 20
the First National bank OF Nashville.
En- route the package was stolen.
Several OF the checks for small
amounts have turned up at banks In
Union City, Tenn, and Mounds, H..
but all the banks within short
radius of Paducah and Nashville have
been notified Of the cancelling OF the
checks. This is the first time that a
package OF checks has been missed
from the Paducah Office, although
every bank in the city mails checks
every day for collection.
About $40 was secured by the per-
sons who presented the checks at the
banks for payment. Duplicates for
about two-thiris OF the checks have
been received already. The banks
that cashed the checks will have to
stand the loss.
