Attention, lien of Stanton.

A movements on foot toward
organizing a local Young Mems
Christian Association for the men
of Stanton. This will mean a
clean, light, healthful place of
meeting during the afternoons
and evenings, with such privi-
leges as reading room games,
gymnasium apparatus and bath.
Such project will of course re-
quire some little financial SUD-
port at the start, but by the
hearty cooperation of all the
men interested, can be pushed to
a successful conclusion.
The men of Stanton and sur.
rounding country are asked to
meet at Z p. IN. on Friday, Dec.
Is in the Court House to discuss
this matter and to make an ex-

The Kentucky students won
four out of six trophies that were
offered. They lost two trophies.
The Kentucky boys won the
two trophies for best team work
on all four breeds, offered by
Hoard's Dairyman and the Ma
tional Dairy Show. They won
the trophy for the best judging
of Holstein cattle and the trophy
for the best work in Judging
Guernsey cattle. The students
from Kentucky were probably
the youngest in the contest.
Kentucky students thus won
first honors as a team out of ten
teams present, and individually
the students ranked high in CON-
petition with tirty students who
were working in the contest.
The team of 5 students from the
Kentucky Agricultural College
of State University also won
the saddle horse judging trophy

Christmas Honey for the Farm Boy.

Few people know the magni-
tude of the fur business In Amer
lea. This is the time of the year
when the boy on the farm not on
ly gets a great deal of pleasure
out of trapping and hunting, but
quite a bit of pocket money be-
sides. Many people are under
the impression that the fur bear
ing animals of America are being
exterminated, but the supply
seems inexhaustable, and with
the present game laws in effect
in every state, America bids fair
to be one of the largest sources
from which the world will draw
its supply of fur.
Louisville is considered one of
the largest primary fur markets
of the West and middle South.
There are two firms in Louisville
that are considered among the
big factors in the raw fur trade
of America. Both of these firms
are represented in the advertis-
ing columns of the Times.

Expensive Roads.

There are two kinds of expens-
i've roads. One of them is ex.
pensive because it costs lots of
money to build and maintain it
and the other is expensive be-
cause it makes travelling slow and
difficult and loads small. The
first kind brings returns in good
service while the second is a
handicap to progress.
In certain section of the South
the country has made splendid
public road. 1t cannot yet con-
meet with everybody, 80 one
farmer lived near used four
horses this summer in hauling
wheat to it and two after it was
reached. In other words, the new
road cut the cost of delivering
wheat to one half. And it is a
good road for winter as we'll as
for summer. Some sections have
pretty fair roads while the wealth.
er is dry, but an almost i'm.
passable highway for winter. We
have in mind a village where the
merchants pay 25 cents per hun
dred pounds hauling goods during
summer and 4Oc after roads get
bad in winter. The former is q
better price than the latter when
the load hauled and time con.
sumed for the trip are considered.
Some farmers live eight or ten
miles from the depot and are but
an hours drive from the railroad,
while others living that far from
it are two to three hours drive
removed. These are examples of
very expensive roads. They cost
time and horse power. Some of
us could sell a team of mules or
horses if we had good roads and
could 60 to town and back in a
half day instead of "a day.
Since we have to have expens-
i've roads, let us have a kind that
makes big loads and repid tran
sit possible; this is the cheapest
way in the long run. 1t is better
to use the time that you spend
