Hunters coming in from quail shooting
have brought about half dozen English
woodcock, which meat is considered by
many superior to quail. In the larger
cities. the high price restaurants get
twice the price for wooccock that they
do quail. There are very few of this
specie Of game fowl in the south now,
except Mississippi and parts of Texas.
There are about dozen killed in Madi-
son every year and this is all that can be
found. They never fly far and flock
of five or six can be easily cleaned up
by good shot. They resemble quail
in color of feathers. but have a large
bill like snipe and legs like ployer.

CUT-oUT NEXT YEAR ADVOCATED.
Georgetown News.)

Cutting out the 1911 crop seems to
US to be the only wise solution to the
present situation. Not only does il
seem to us to be the proper solution
from financial standpoint, but it also
seems to be the most peaceful solu-
tion. Certainly those who have dis
posed of their 1909 crops and those
who have contracted the sale of their
1910 crops at a strong price would not
persist in growing another crop if it
takes cut-out crop now to protest
those who are still in the 1909 pool.
We do not believe they will.
Whatever is done, however, must be
in a peaceful and lawful way. Whether
the 1911 crop is cut or what not, ever
remember that the law must be up
held; that its supremacy must be rec
ognized at all times and under all cir
cumstances. First: Law and peace;
next prosperity, and both together
spell Happiness with big H.
We trust that the tobacco growers
will yet share their rightful portion of
them all.

Right Move.

The citizens eff Lexington
have just elected two women,
Miss Linda Neville and Miss
Margaret Brown, to the
Board of Education. These
two women were candidates
on the Fusion ticket. Their
opponents on the regular
Democratic ticket were two
prominent educators of the
city of Lexington. Professor
M. L. Pence Of the State
University, and Professor Il.
B. McCar they of Trans
ylvania University.
This indicates somewhat
the strength of the desire for
women on the Board of
Education in Lexington.
These women, it will be
recollected. were elected by
the votes of men, 20 women
in Lexington being allowed
the school ballot. They were
dominated by men, without
any solicitation either from
them or from other women,
as a measure of party wisdom
as well as of principle.
AS it happens, a strong
effort was made by more than
lone of the masculine leaders
in the Democratic party to
have women nominated on
that ticket. This was over
ruled by a small coterie OF
Democrats opposed to any
recognition Of women's
services. Lexington is the
city represented by the
Honorable William Klair,
who has in two Legislatures
opposed the extension OF
school suffrage to Kentucky
women.
1t has been represented
that the trial of school
suffrage for women in Lex
;ington some years back prov.
led a failure. A fat contra.
diction of this statement OF
the politicians did not destroy
its currency, though this
contradiction was made by
those who knew that Lexing-
ton was still profiting from
the reforms instituted by
women on the School Board
who could point to the State
wide reputation of some OF
the women who then gave
their services free to their
city; who knew that the
suffrage was repealed with
out a demand from the people,
practically without their
! knowledge, at the behest OIL
a few politicians only.
