GREATEST MORTALITY
In this Section Seems TO Be in Month
Of August

Mr. s. J. Turpin. who has been IN
charge of the Buffalo cemetery for
the last four years, and was engaged
as assistant for several years prior,
IL very painstaking in all his duties
smallest detail. His work gives gem
eral satisfaction. not only to the
management of the cemetery com
parry bu; to the patrons as WELL
Visitors speak very complimentary
of this beautiful cemetery and say
il would be hard to find its superior
anywhere. There is no doubt but
what il is the best drained cemetery
in Kentucky, on account of its ex-
tremely porous soil.
At no time, while digging a grave
has Mr.. Turpin been able to see
any water or had to dip any cut,
not even in digging graves in the
rainiest seasons.
When questioned as to the month
in which most interments take place
he very readily replied that August
saw more burials though. 50 far
this year, there were only two. Con
trary to the old prejudice existing
against March as the month which
carries off the old people, mvalids
and sickly infants it Is strangely
true that March according to the
records, shows up fcwest burials.
In the last ten years there were
Alb burials. the year 1908 being the
year giving the least, 30. The year
1908 tied with 1904 ON 30 rs the
greatest number. The present year
shows only 81 burials to date. the
average rate for the entire year. cal
culated on n ten year average will
be 41.3.

LEGISLATURE ENCOURAGES
BEET CULTURE IN NEVADA

smiles when the subject is breach
cd that someday Nevada will cease
to be a mining state and its valleys

the fact. While for years our
mines will be the foremost of any

the last hope will be filled and the
timbers will be rotting and crum-
