Mothers BilI.

Among the many excellent bills
before the legislature in whose pass
age women are interested IS one espe-
cially vital to women who understand
its import. 1t is not generally known
that the Kentucky statutes stiu COM
prise the law giving the father of the
child the right Of guardianship over
II, disregarding what seems to the
non-legal mind. an equal right Of the
mother. Not long ago. in Illinois, a
mother stumbled upon her child by
accident. from whom she had been
separated for 16 wears by the work.
ing OF a law similar to ours which
gave the child upon divorce of the
parents into the guardianship of the
father, in spite of his obvious unfit
ness for such a charge.
Massachusetts secured a co-guar-
dianship law, after horrible tragedy.
when a mother, driven insane by the
threats OF the father to sell the chill
dren away from her. as he had the
legal right to do, killed herself and
five children, and though no suob
tragedies have occurred in Kentucky
to point the injustice OF law which
d-scards the rights OF the mother. Il
Is well to guard against such a DosSi-
bihty by the passage of a guardian
ship law. Such a bill has been intro
duced into the legislature this year
by the Woman Suffrage association.

KENTUCKY POLITICS

What effect thseaction of the Ken
lucky state senate, in referring the
county unit bill TO the committee,
will have on the next general elec-
tion. we can only guess; but it did
bring out strongly some political diff
ferenees of statewide Importance.
The bill was referred by the Repub-
lean lieutenant = governor to the
Kentucky statutes committee, as de-
sired by the friends of the bill. The
Democratic majority refused to sus-
tain the lieutenant governor. and on
appeal from the chair. took the bill
away from that committee and sub

the bill. When a committee reports

Save that of 1867 this is the largest output in the history of the factory and taking every rything into considera- tion, the season has been q successful one
 The grade of goods turned out is ex- ceptionally good. The peach pack was as fine as could have been wished for, and quite as much can be said of both tomatoes and apples.
 Until the Is or 20 car loads now stored in the factory are marketed, it is impossible to tell how profitable the business has been to the stockholders of the company.
 The output this year will amount to approximately S50,000, if the prevail ing price holds good The market has been only fair compared with former years while the cost of operation and general expenses of the factory have been greater. The item of labor has been very great, the wages paid hay ing been greatly in excess of that of any previous season.

Alfalfa is a Paving Crop.

There are some people who won't be- lieve us when we say that five crops of alfalfa can be grown in this section in one season, but it is fact, neverthe- less, as has been demonstrated the past season. R. M. Lichlyter, living at Johnson, has a seven-acre patch of alfalfa from which he has during the past season cut $324.50 worth of hay, moving it five times. The first cut ting was along the fore part of May and the last the fore part of this month. Since the last cutting the al falfa has already come nice and green, furnishing excellent fall pasture.
 Alfalfa is one of the most profitable crops that can be grown, and furnishes feed which takes the place of both grain and hay. Mir. Lichlyter is en- thusiastic on the question and he hopes to see others try their hands at grow ing it. -Springdale News.
