Outlook for Next Years Hog
Market.

Yes it is a long time off but
you must not overlook the fact
that is quite an extended period
between the time of selecting
your boar and mating the sows
before the crop of pigs reach the
pork barrel.
With all the hogs in the country
last spring and prices on meats
tumbling, it hardly seemed pos
sible for pork to hold up "above
a..whisper." It was what the hog
men looked for and no one would
have been surprised. On the
other hand many are surprised
that prices have kept up to a
profitable point all along and are

Judge right: Poker isn't a game; it's
a miSdemeanor. When men will smoke
your good cigars and remind you that
you were 10 cents shy In pot twenty
minutes ago. poker isn't a game; it's
grand larceny.
And on top of all this, when your
guests depart, their pockets bullying
with your money, instead of thanking
you for your hospitality. they chuckle
among themselves and remark:

exceptionally good now. The
lesson we have learned is this,
that pork consumption is increas-
ing beyond normal production.
We of America are known as pork
eaters, which team is becoming
more fitting to us all the time.
If Sill hogs wouldn't encourage
a supply that would glut the mar
ket the following year, what will?
The high price at first caused
many to sacrifice good breeding
animals, but later the same men
bred every little nondescipt SOW
they ownod or could buy. Of
course many of these sows didn't
make money for their owners
but they help to increase the
number of hogs in the country
until you could see hogs on every
farm and even many back door
yards.
Another reason why no G S
should prove very profitable next
year is the inevitable curtailment
in sheep raising to say nothing
of the easing up on cattle feed
ing which follows an improbable
year and a drouth. Our advice
is to use a first class boar and
breed all the good sows this fall
you can handle nicely the through
the winter, and you will be re-
warded by good prices.

Reunited Democracy.

AS an indication of the fact
that all Democrats are getting
together under the peerless lead
ship of Gov. McCreary for a
great victory in November, we
are glad to note that McGreary
club composed of ex-Confeder-
ates of Fulton and Fulton county
is being formed, all the members
of which are pledged to vote and
use all their influence for the
Democratic state ticket in the
coming election. The immortal
ranks of gray are fast thinning,
but the old heroes who are still
with us are loyal to a white
mans government in Kentucky

soft fiattery and sophistry Of

Old Adam.

He. didn't cave a stylish wife,
Who followed all of fashions
fads
With rats and hobble shirts and
pads.
She never beggared his accounts
BY running bills of large amounts
Fer willow plumes and four foot
And fancy high heeled shoes and
Spats
And evening gowns of texture
fair.
She ne'er had a desire to skip.
To Euroge fop a summer trip.
In social realms she didn't shine
And never had to stand in line
At swell receptions dressed to
kill.
There was no unpaid modiste's
bill,
Though like all women every
where,
She never sulked about that fact,
But got along with wonderouS
tact,
The servants problem peeved
her not,
She never worried Ger her lot
Or caused a single family jar
Because she had no touring car,
And last, but not the least to
note,
She didn't even want to vote.

Some Pertinent Questions.
EIizabethtown News.

GiLoOCthtOWh ANCWos
When Gov. Wilson sent the
''bayonets" to Hopkinsville to
protect property and save hui
man life after the town had been
raided by an armed mob Judge
O'Rear made a speech in which
he said "you cannot push an idea
through an Anglo axon's head
with a bayonet. Did you not
mean Judge O'Rear by this
statement to criticise Gov. Will
son for sending the troops to
Hopkinsville?
Col. Franks, when a candidate
for the Republican nomination
for Governor referring to this
speech of yours. said it was an
instance of the Chief Justice of
the highest court in the State en-
courging lawlessness by criticiz-
ing the act of the Governor to re-
store order. Why Judge O'Rear,
did you make this statement at
thistime if not to encourage law
lessness?
In your speech at Lexington
few days before your nomination
you said corrupt lobby had
elected United States Senator
in Kentucky. Who did you refer
to Judge O'Rear? Was it Brad
ley, and if not Bradley, who did
you mean?
You said Judge O'Rear when
McCreary was nominated for
Governor that you were glad to
see the better element of the
Democratic party on top. Later
along in the campaign you
charge that he was nominated by
machine. Which one of
these statements, Judge were
you sincere in?
Judge O'Rear you say that ma
tional issues have nothing to do
with this campaign. If you were
elected Governor and a vacancy
occurred in the u. S. Senate
from Kentucky would you not
appoint John Langley to the va
cancy who voted against the
Canadian reciprocity bill and for
the Payne, Aldrich bill? Would
not this be national politics with
a vengeance?
You are urging the people to
elect you Governor, Judge, upon
what you call State issues and
you are urging the people at the
same time to elect Republican
Legislature which would elect
next winter a United States SEN
ator. How can the people be-
lieve you are sincere Judge when
these two propositions are put
together?
