STOCK pAY-HELP BOOST IT.

In We olden times, when the live
stock industry in Maury county wal
frst poisoning into that perfection
that in later years turned out quite
Q number of horses of nationwide
reputation It was wont for the breed.
ers and farmers to exhibit their finest
stock in Columbia on the First Day
Of April. Gradually the day became
consecrated to the purpose and it be-
came gala day in the county's his
tory. Many citizens can now recall
with pleasure the outpouring of high
bred stock, the long parades, and
the kindling enthusiasm in the live
stock industry.
While Stock Day is yet on the Maury
County Calendar, it has not in recent
years been just what it should. For
the past two seasons the stock exhibit
ed has been of the high quality that
has made Maury County famous, but
the number of animals shown has not
been so large as local conditions justi-
fy. There has been apparent a GER
tain apathy on the part of farmers
and breeders. that is itself sign eth
er of lack OF appreciation or lack of
knowledge of the benefits to be de-
rived.
This year a special committee of the
Maury County Board Of Trade has
taken Stock Day in charge, and with
the cooperation of those persons
most vitality interested-the farmers !
and breeders-expect to make the day !,
again glorious in local history. But
the committee, no matter how hard it
may work, or how conscientious its
efforts cannot succeed without that
cooperation that is at the bottom Of
every success.
If you are a farmer or breeder of
fine stock of any kind or character;
if you have thorough bred, a PAGER
or trotter; II you have a fine COW, a
good jack, sheep of more than ordin-
airy merit then bring that animal to
Columbia on the First Monday in April
and get in the parade. There is no
way to boost the live stock industry
of Maury county except to advertise 6
it Stock Day furnishes the medium I
to show what you have. IL
Join hands all around and make T
Stock Day sure enough success.

THE VERY FIRST
LOAD OF LAMBS IS
SHIPPED TO MARKET
JOE HAGEY BUYS CAR LOAD OF
CHOICE ONES FOR EARLY
TRADE.
GOOD PRICES WERE PAID
Few Extra Early Lambs Brought As
Much AS Eight Dollars Each-The
Crop Said to be An Unusually Big
One.

With the advent Of spring the move
ment of Maury county lambs to mar
ket has begun, and the revenue of the
Maury county farmer is again in the
embrace of friend. The first ship.
ment of lambs was made by Joe Ha-
gey, the well known local dealer, who
Saturday shipped a car of about $50
lambs to the Louisville markets. The
lambs shipped by Mr.. Hagey brought
from $500 to $500 per round, but Of
course there were some that exceed
ed those figures and some that fell
below In few instances farmers re-
ceived as much as $500 for an extra
fine lamb, enc that would weigh
about so pounds.
The extremely early lambs are
scarce, remarkably so; but there are
quite number Of lambs throughout
the county that are ready for ship
ment and that will weigh as much as
fifty pounds. The high prices paid
for these makes their sale now profit
able, as the additional weight they
would take ON would be Offset by the
decline in quotations.
Another reason for the early sale of
lambs is the relief of pastures, many
Of which are already cut low The
wheat suffered so much from the Sc
we're weather of the winter that 1t
Afforded but poor early grazing, and |
many farmers will be glad to get their |
ambs on the market just as early as
possible
The lamb crop this year is an I'M
Usually fine one. the breeding Of lambs
laving received encouragement from
he good prices of recent years. The
'ulk of the lambs will be sold In
april, at which time prices will un-

EVENING CHAT
BY RUTH CAMERON.

When you see a magnificent gown or
rich-looking set of furs in some shop
window and wish that you might nave
it. / don't suppose YOU ever stop TO
wonder whether YOU want it so ardent
ly because it is beautiful. or merely be-
cause it is expensive.
And yet 1 think that question is a
mighty interesting AMI important one.
do you know" remarked a woman
to me the other day as she showed me
the magnificent set or sable furs she
had just purchased, positively. am
almost ashamed to tell it. but plain
martin is really much more becoming
to me than any other fur. can buy"
Then why on earth don't you buy
it?' questioned in wonder.
why. because it's so cheap, of
course she responded in equal wonder
1lent so common. my dear. Any shop
girl can have them. OF course,
wouldn't really think of wearing mar
tin, but they cert ainly are most becom-
ing
That. to me, is an attitude that is
positively ineXcusable.
For Il woman to want expensive
things because thev are beautiful is
normal and not undesirable state of af-
fairs.
But for a woman. or any one else. to
want expensive things just because they
are expensive is wicked.
And yet, how many of us are abso-
1utely free from the faint of expense
worship?
Would the lady with the magnificent
mink coat enjoy it half so much If she
did not know that it was quite evident
to her most envious sisters that it cost
at least $50?
If serge were expensive and broad
cloth very cheap. how long do you
think it would take the people who
assert there is nothing as beautiful as
broadcIoth to become enamored Of
serge?
People say they wear diamonds be-
cause they are beautiful. but if by
some scientific invention or natural
discovery diamonds should become as
cheap as rhinestones. do you think they
would still be worn by wealthy peo-
pie?
Doubtless we fancy we wear silk for
best because it is more beautiful than

to become very cheap and cotton ex-
pensive, which, do you think, our dress
up gowns would be made of?
Show me the woman who, having ex-
travagantly admired a gown which she
thought a high priced creation, would
not lose some of that admiration when
she found that. after ALI it was an in
expensive affair.
For myself. remember conceiving a
sudden respect and admiration the 9TH
err day for simple little coral broad
cloth evening wrap that 1 thought
would be priced at about SIS. when the
shop girl told me it was an imported
model and. sold for $3.50.
But was ashamed of myself for feel
ing that way. The thing was not one
whit more beautiful and should not
have seemed a bit more desirable.
And I want every other woman to be
ashamed when she catches herself ad-
miring expense instead of beauty.
