Preparation for Through Run by
Mail Clerk Gives Rumor
Color, However.

Hopkinsville, KY, Sept. L.
While here on his way to Prince
ton in his private car, President
A. B. Newell of the Tennessee
Central railroad. denied the
persistent rumors that his road
would be taken over by the
Illinois Central on Sept. 10.
Il heard the report before
leaving Nashville, but there is
absolutely nothing to IL. We
are doing excellently as an
independent line. Our relations
with the Illinois Central are en-
tireiy friendly and on a basis
that is mutually satisfactory"
1t is known that mail clerks
on the Illinois Central and Ten
nessee Central have been in
structed to post themselves at
once so as to be qualified for
making through runs from Ev.
ansville. Ind, to Nashville, Tenn.
This fact together with the
presence of a corps Of railroad
engineers, who are making sur
veys along the /. c. and I. c.
lines in this region. lends color
to the rumor that changes are tc
be made speedily in the operation
of the roads. There is also q
report that that T. c. is trying
to lease the /. c. branch from
this city 20 Princeton. Presi'
dent Newell and a numbexof T.
C. officials left here for the
latter city.

SAFETY AT HOME
According to DR.. Woodward,
health officer for the national
capital, people are safer from
such diseases as typhoid fever
at their homes. where ordinary
sanitary precautions are enfored
than they are at the average
summer resort. He says people
go to the seashore, the mountains
or other places with the inten-
ton of getting pure air, milk
and healthful food. They do
not take into consideration the
sanitary conditions under which
the will is handled and disregard
other conditions for health pre-
servation.
"Our inspectors make careful
inquiry into every case of typhoid
fever" said the doctor today,
land go carefully into the history
of the patient. Persons take
their lives into their hands when
they visit a resort without know
ing anything of the conditions
existing there as to sanitation.
It can be conservatively estimat-
ed that 20 per cent of the typhoid
fever cases prevailing in the
District of Columbia at this time
of the year are brought back to
the city after a vacation spent
at some summer resort.

Plan q Whirlwind Campaign--Mr.
Elliott, Of Henderson Present at
Meeting.

The County Committee of the
Henderson Stemming District
Association held an important
meeting at the court house Sat-
urday.
The committee passed a resclu-
ton requiring all district CON-
mitteemen TO make a whiriwind
campaign this week for the pur-
pose of getting as much Of the
present crop Of tobacco pooled
rs they possibly can.
The pool cannot be effected
unless Is per cent Of the crop is
secured, and this must be ac
complished before the district
meeting is held n Henderson on
September the third.
Mr.. William Elliott, OF Hen.

ton. was present at the meet
ing. The meeting was presided
over by Mr.. f. F. Brown. chair
man of the committee, Mr.. w.
Fl. Parker the chairman-elect.
will assume his duties on Sept. 3
At the meeting referred 10
above the Hopkins County Board
recommended that the District
Board insert new clause
in all future contracts of
sale. Commenting on the resoha-
ton. the jacksonville Journal
says:
TO THE FARMERS
We call attention TO the
resolution adopted by the county
committee of the Stemming Dis
trict Association here last Satur-
day. recommending a new clause
TO be put in all sale contracts
made with purchasers of the
1910 crops of pooled tobacco.
This resolution is publised in this
issue and should be carefully
read by tobacco growers. Under
its terms the purchasers of
pooled tobacco cannot purchase
any tobacco out of the pool at a
greater price than that paid for
the pooled tobacco without in
creasing the price on all like
grades in their purchase from
the Association.
The resolutian does not in SO
many words state this. but in its
ingenious words are given effect
such will be the result. II is
well known that the strongest
tobacco buyers of our type of
tobacco have been dealing with
the association each year since
its organization and will most
likely continue TO do so as their
relationship has been very pleas
ant and apparently satisfactory.
Whatever we may say or think
about the Stemming District AS
sociation or the pooling business,
one thing is certain-the man.
agement of the Association
understands how to handle the
tobacco Of this district to please
the buyers who deal in it. IL
they continue to buy from the
Association with this new con-
tract they will not likely buy
outside tobacco except at a re-
duced price, or at most they will
be careful not to increase the
pool price.
The resolution in full follows:
Be it resolved blythe Hopkins
County Executive Committee of
the Stemming District Tobacco
Association, That we request the
District Executive Committee to
have a clause in the contract for
the sale of any and all of the
1910 crop of tobacco pooled with
said Association stipulating in
