To Attend Inauguration.

We learn several from Clay
City will attend the inaugura
ton of Governor James B. Nc.
Creary at the capitol in Frank
fort next Tuesday. The editor of
ihe Times would be delighted to
he present too, but if we manage
to make both ends meet We find
it necessary to put in every week
day. We think, however, it is
better to be too busy than to be
too idle and will continue to
work a little while longer even
if we do miss a few of the good
things. In the future we are ex.
pecting any way to have the op-
portunity more frequently of at
tending the Inauguration of
Democratic Governors in Ken
lucky than we have had in the
past.

To Regulate Veterinary Practice.

A bill has been drawn up by
the Kentucky Veterinary Medic
al Association and will be intro
duced at the coming Legislature
for enactment into law. The
bill is similar to one introduced
at the last session, but has been
revised and corrected. not ipclud-
ing any faze of the tuberculosis
question. 1t has its purpose, to
place the, veterinary practice in
Kentucky in the hands of compe.
tent and educated men, and
thereby elevate the profession.
1t provides among other things
for aboard of veterinary medical
examiHers compels the issuance
of practitioners upon examina-
tion, together with the registra-
tion of these licenses, and pro.
vides, a penalty by fine or by
Jail sentence, or both, for viola
ton of the act.

A Correction.

In recent issue of the Times
a news item appeared TO the ef-
feet that had Mr.. Garrett have
had opposition he would have
been defeated. This item was
based on statements made by
some of our exchanges which we
supposed had better access to the
figures than we did and suppos-
ed it to be true. The official re-
turns show this to be a mistake.
O'Rear carried this Railroad dis
trict by majority of 2,345 votes
while some of the minor candi-
dates received a much greater
majority. Knowing the situa-
tion as we do, it is fortunate for
the Democratic state ticket that
Mr.. Garrett did not have opposi-
ton since he being so popular
with many Democrats it would
have been compelled to have de.
tracted from the Democratic
vote, and had Mr.. Garrett have
had opposition it is safe to say
he would have led the state tick
ct in his district by hundreds of
votes. The item mentioned did
not mean to reflect on our friend
Mr.. Garrett but appeared mere
" as a news item based on state
ments of others whom we
thought had taken the pains to
count the vote.

AGRICULTURAL EXTENSION.
-----------
Short Courses IN Agriculture.

-
|" On the second day of January,
1912, the College of Agriculture
of the State University will begin
its farmers courses or short cours.
es in agriculture. The first week
of this time will be designated
farmers Week. The time will
be consumed by the annual con.
ventions of the various live stock
breeders associations, including
the dairy and beef cattle, swine,
sheep and horsd the annual meet
ing of the State Horticultural
Society and the State Corn Grow
ers' Association. Each of these
associations will devote one day
to their program, some of the
conventions RAINING simultan.
eously in different rooms.
This week affords the best pos.
sible opportunity, not only to
hear an interesting and instruc.
tive program by practical and
professional men of State and
nation wide reputation, but also
an opportunity TO meet large
majority of the most successful
farmers and stockmen of our
State. Not only will the farmer
find the week spent at the college
pleasant and profitable, but also
his wife and daughter will find
that special arrangements have
been madefor them in the way
of instruction IN household eco
nomics. Lectures, demonstra.
tions and practicaL exercises I'M
cooking. ses.tns. home ,iecoss.I
tion and other matters pertain
ing to the home will be treated.
During Farmers Week the
State Corn Show will be held,
with large number of classes
for both the adult and boys' de-
partments, and most attractive
premium list is offered. At the
same time will be held the State
Dairy Show, with exhibits of
milk and cream of both certified
and market classes, and butter
made at the creamery and OH the
ferm, each in its class. A sepa.
rate premium list will be offered
for the various classes, making
it well worth while to compete in
any of them. The State Holti-
cultural Society is also arranging
for an elaborate exhibit. Special
folders giving information con.
cerning each of these depart.
ments will be mailed to any one
on request.
Reduced rates have been Sc
cured over all the railroad lines
TO put it within the means of
larger number TO attend.
Immediately following Farm.
ers' Week will come the regular
Winter Short Course in Agricul-
tyre, intended for the practical
farmer who cannot leave his farm
to take any of the regular college
courses. This course continues
until the middle of March, treat.
ing practical farm problems and
scientific manner.
The time was selected during the
winter in order that it might be
possible for the farmer to leave
his work, hich would not be the
case If the work were conducted
in the summer.
The facilities for teaching are
perhaps as good at the Kentucky
Agricultural College as at any
other place IN the country, espe-
cially in the case of live stock
and dairying. Among the sub
jects treated will be agronomy,

Tally Johns and Jack Mcponoueh. his
manager, arrived yesterday from buttc
to box kid Davis len rounds tonight
AT Willard Beans San-Gym. J2-Jf West
Third South street. Johns is in fine
condition and ready 10 go on at mo-
mept's notice He weighed l2i pounds
after dinner last night Davis weighed
in about the same time and the scales
balanced between 10 and III pounds.
This shows how evenly the boys are
matched in weight.
This Will bc a test bout for Davis he
cause heretofore he has never regarded
boxing seriously as a profession, but he
has trained with far more care than lac
Johns he win devote himself TO the ring,
for while at least, When Davis went
nn with Peanuts" Sinclair at tue Au-
dtorlnm. he only lost four days from his
the most pcrfunctory sort That was
Doubtless ono reason WHY he made so
much better showing in the beginning of
the bout than he did toward the end
OF H. AT any rate fans will know tonight
in just what category Davis belongs.
Davis has hnany friends in Salt Lake
who believe that he can win from Johns
Notwithstanding That tough Ittlc Mon
tanans victory over Sinclair. Much
stranger things have happened in .pugl
ism. especially when Davia's lack Of
sidercd. These friends OF Davis are
hoping he will win ana are going 10 be
present in order to have tho opportunity
OF cheering him il lie does.
Davis in Condition,
Davis las been coached ont of his
habit OF backing away from his foe.
which was ono OF, his mistakes in The
last rounds hc fought with Sinclair He
has also been given many moro pointers.
No ono who knows him doubts his game
ness and his cleycrness with the gloves
has always admiration from Salt
Lake fans whenever lie appeared I'm the
ring.
OF course, In Johns he has ono Of the
toughest little boys in the west 10 go
against, but for some reason Davis does
not stand so much in ave OF Johns as
he did OF Sinclair. Perhaps the reason
Is that Davis has seen Sinclair win so
often and has boxed with him so fire.
duentIy thai he had Peanuts sized up
as the boxer he used To be which Pea
nuts is far from being at The praesnt
time. Sinclair Is ono OF the might
have-bcen champions. who has deterio-
rated tremendously. vet during all his
bout Davis seemed 10 be unnecessarily
wary OF Peanuts
There will be none OF This policy in
this go tonight.
In Johns, Jack McDonough. who was
the discoverer OF Stanley Ketchel and
! therefore entitled to great copSidera tion,
believes he has coming champion. Nc
Donough really believes that u year
from today Johns will be one of the top
notchers In the featherwcight class.
