LEXINGTON AUTO LAW

"Oh, but you're slow-Fayette
county Ia lighting out now what other
places fought out and settled ten
years ago" said an automobile own
er Tuesday morning, in discussing
the recent editorials and news stories
about the speeders-up of automo-
biles.
"The licensing OF machines is no
good-license every man who drives
a car and you will be getting nearer
a solution" was the further sugges-
ton. which was not wholly without
merit, and several states where that
plan is in successful operation were
mentioned.
LET each driver be licensed and
the penalty for violation of the speed
laws be revocation Of license to
drive, and you will stop the trouble, y
Twas another suggestion.

Vending murdered a little girl
and hid her body In the basement OF
a church, where she was last seen
by women. who testified that they

remained about the premises con-
Quoting the police on tours of in

he never would even have been sus-

plumbers helper found the body
where Vending had hidden it.
A large aggregate reward was
offered for his capture and every
policeman in the world was on the
lookout for Vending in the hope
OF winning the reward. He showed
up in San Francisco and Carney was
notified. He went out there and
brought Vending home. That's the
story of the capture; but the bone

DRY FARMING PRINCIPLES OF
VALUE HERE.

Dry farming In dry farming

liand of perpetual drought and the
sensational claims made for II, that
Just as good crops can be raised
without plenty of water as with IL.
have ruined many a man, who ac-
cepted them in good faith.
The principle of dry farming Is
the conservation of the moisture in
the soil by tillage. In the real dry
farming countries, which are the
semi-desert plains of the west,
where they cannot irrigate they
haven't made a crop since the world
began. and probably never will. But
the theory should be practically
adopted by farmers in this country,
We have seasons of excessive rain
fall and we have seasons of more or
less serious drought. There is no
section free from that danger. ex-
cepting where they have good soil
and constant sunshine, and water
their land by systems of irrigation.
Proper drainage to relieve the
land of surplus moisture is a mat
ter that has not been sufficiently
considered here, and the principles
of dry farming, by which the moist
ure Is conserved in the soil. have
not been properly understood. For
instance, the west this year is suf-
fering from drought. They had some
rainfall; they always do, and II they
had followed the methods of dry
farming they would have saved their
entire crops. SO, while 1t is i'm
practicable by the system of dry
farming to raise crops, where there
is no moisture, 1t would be possible
under all conditions to save crops
In periods of exceptional drought in
ordinarily well watered countries.
The following editorial from an
exchange could well be taken to
heart by Kentucky farmers:
John T. Burns. secretary-treasurer
of the dry farming congress OF Spo-
kane, has made recently some CON-
ment on the present crop situation
which deserves the prayerful consid-
Grafton of American farmers. He
does not exaggerate in declaring that
II the real lesson of the prevailing
drought is perceived by our agricult-
wrists the drought will prove a bless
ing far outweighing in substantial
profit the loss II has involved.
Mr.. Burns begins his little sermon
by saying that there was sufficient
moisture during the six weeks pre-
ceding the beginning of the dry
weather to mature the crops Of the
dry farming region II the farmers had
been on the lookout for what has oc-
CURED.
To illustrate this he cites the case
of Farmer Holhingsworth. whose place
is near Colfax, in Washington. "Hol-
Ilingsworth." says. Mr. Burns, treat
ed his soil according to the dry farm
dng system, while HIS neighbors left

Sold Putrid Meat.

Two Asayrlan9, meat dealers Of
Charleston, were arrested and
fined $500 each last week for kill
ing a diseased COW and Offering
the meat for sale. 1t is stated
that the animal in question had
but three legs, one of the legs hav-
ing been amputated below the
knee and the place was a running
sore. For several days before the
cow was killed she refused to eat.
The animal was kept in a stable
through which q cOlored man had
TO trAvel daily. One morning last
week be reported her missing aud
that ne suspected the butchers
from across the waters were offer
ing the meat for sale. The health
authorities then investigated the
case and found the head and hide
Of the dead COW. They then went
to the A5syrians' meat market
where meat IN the worst condi-
'tIon imaginable was found on the
market and where on account of
the odor was a very disagreeable
place to stay. Two livers we're
also found, one Of which was dis
eased and which, the testimony
showed, came out of the sick COW.
AT first the two men denied that
they had killed the COW, stating
they lad shipped her away, but
when questioned could not give
satisfactory answers. Their testi.
mony in behalf Of themselves was
weak, in fact, so weak that Judge
MacCorkle did not hesitate in
giving them all in his power and
told them he was sorry he could
not add Jail sentence.
1t is not likely that those for
eigners will sell much more meat
to Charleston people.
