WHY CAN'T We RAISE
EDIBLES We CONSUME?
A Pertinent Question That Apt.
ly Applies to The Farm
ing Classes.

An upper Kentucky paper says
that thousands of dollars are going
out of its county every season for
cabbage, potatoes and apples. The
pertinent and proper question is
asked, why not raise what we
consumer"
Cabbage, potatoes and apples are
articles of consumption which may
be grown to a reasonable degree of
perfection in Kentucky. Decidedly
it would be much better to grow
them at home than to buy them
from our Northern neighbors at the
increased price that is necessitated
by the cost of handling, packing
and shipping. In that way We
should have more money in circula-
ton in the State and if, perchance,
we grow a surplus of these prod
ucts, they might profitably be ex-
changed for other peoples money.
There are other vegetables and
fruits which Kentuckians buy from
abroad in preference to growing
them at home. The outlay for these
is enormous, and there would be no
better way of saving money than
by producing them in our fields and
truck patches with the aid of our
fayoring soil and climate which al
ways do a fair share of work in CO.
operation with the efforts of the
farmer and fruit-grower. Soil and
climate cannot do all the work. If
so, we should have potatoes for the
digging, and apples for the pluck
ing. One reason we do not have
more of these commodities is be-
cause we are not keeping up our
end of the enterprise and are not
giving the soil and climate a chance
to show what they can do when in
telligently assisted.
In an agricultural county-and
there are many such counties in
Kentucky-there does not seem to
be much excuse for sending away
from home for cabbage, potatoes or
apples. Yet there probably are
few, If any, counties in Kentucky
which raise a suficiency OF these
articles for home consumption.
should devote more at
tention to horticulture and truck
growing or should invite immigra-

in these lines.-tCour-

it would be possible to save under
the Board of Trade rules 962.
The plans show that the Titanic
carried lifeboats to accommodate
$50 persons. Each of the eighteen
lifeboats was capable of taking If
ty-three passengers. There is not
evidence on the plans to show that
the Titanic carried any collapsible
boats or RATS, her lifeboats putting
her barely within the Board of
Trade regulations. Comparison
with the Oceanic and Campania,
which are much smaller, show that
they carry twenty boats each, while
the Lusitania has only sixteen. The
Board OF Trade rules laid down in
1905 took as their basis 10000
ton ships and apply only to ships
with water-tight compartments. 1t
does not appear that in the big
ships of later date any attempt to
increase the life-saving apparatus
beyond that required by the regula-
lions was made.

BALD HEADS NOT WANTED
Badness is too Generally Con.
sidered a Sign of Ad-
vanced Age.

A bald-headed person does not
have an equal chance with one
blessed with healthy head of hair
because badness is too generally
accepted as an indication of age.
Many large corporations have es-
tablished an age limit, and refuse
to take men over 35 years of age
as new employees.
Probably 60 per cent of bald
headed people may regain a good
head of healthy hair if they will
follow our advice and accept our Of
fer. We have a remedy that we
positively guarantee to grow hair
on any head, unless the roots of the
hair are entirely dead, their folli-
cles closed, and the scalp has be-
come glazed and shiny. We want
people to try this remedy at our
risk, with the distinct understand
ing that unless it does exactly what
we claim it will, and gives satisfac-
ton in every respect, we shall make
no charge for the remedy used dur
ing the trial.
We know exactly what we are
talking about, and with this offer
back of our statements, no one
should scoff, doubt our word, or
hesitate to put our remedy to an
actual test.
We want every one in Hartford
who is suffering from any scalp or
hair trouble, dandruff. falling hair,
or badness to try our Rexall "93"
Hair Tonic. We want them to use
1t regularly-say until three bottles
have been used-and II 1t does not
eradicate dandruff, cleanse and re-
fresh the scalp, tighten the hair in
It's roots, and grow new hair, We
will return every cent paid US for
the remedy for the mere asking.
There Is no formality expected, and
we exact no obligation from the
user whatever.
We are established right here in
Hartford, and make this offer with
a full understanding that our bust
ness success entirely depends upon
die sort of treatment we accord oul
customers, and we would not dare
make the above offer unless we
were positively certain that we
could substantiate It in every par
ticular. Remember, you can obtain

WORKING ON A SLIDING DECK

London, April 1S.-"Naval arch
fleets are busying themselves even
now with the problem of designing
a deck which can be slipped from a
sinking liner" said John Harvard
Biles, vice president of the Institu-
ton of Naval Architects, in an in
terview to-day. He continued:
THE problem is chiefly that of
the expense of the apparatus, which
would be used only once in fifty
years. An unsuitable ship is a fic-
ton of the transatlantic ticket sell
lers. All things considered, even in
case of a collision with an iceberg,
a vessel of the size of the Titanic
ought to be safer than a smaller
liner. A head-on collision would
leave more compartments undam-
aged, while a side-swipe could be
better resisted 1t is possible to
carry sufficient boats to save every
soul on board liner. | cannot ac-
count for the failure of the wireless
apparatus on the Titanic almost
two hours prior to her laundering,
as a supplementary dynamo was
carried fifteen feet above the water
line"
Figures from the highest official
source supplied to-day by one of
the most prominent British naval
designers show that $50 persons
was the greatest number that could
possibly be saved with the apparat-
us carried on the Titanic. That YES
sells facilities were just within the
Board of Trade regulations, which
specified that a ship must be equip

sufficient to carry $50 passengers

sible boats, RATS and other appa-
ratus not carried on davits must be
supplied to accommodate three
fourths as many, making the total

these days to get to their clubs that
they are rather careless in wrap

REPLY FROM MEXICO
TO UNCLE SANS NOTE
Declines to be Responsible for
Acts of the Rebel
Chief OrOZCO.

Mexico City, April 17.-MeXico
replied to the note OF Acting Secre-
tary Huntington Wilson tonight,
declining to assume responsibility
for Orozco's acts, denying the right
of the Washington Government to
deliver the admonition contained
therein, taking exception to the
communication directed to Orozco
through Consul Letcher, and de-
ploring the making public of this
communication in the same note to
which the Government was requir-
ed to make answer. -- -~----..----.----
The reply was given to the press
by Minister of Foreign Relations
Calero. 1t denies the right of the
Washington Government to admon-
ish Mexico, for the reason that it is
not based on any justifiable Incl
dent. 1t denies responsibility by
the constituted government for acts
committed in territory removed
from law, while accepting full re-
sponsibility for every loss or dam
age sustained to foreigners, legally
chargeable to the Government.
A caution has been issued to the
leaders of the Federal forces to in
sure proper treatment of foreigners
who may be taken as prisoners of
war; at the same time it is asserted
that no basis exists for supposing
that any other course would be pur-
sued.
Orozco is held to be answerable
for his offenses only to the Mexican
courts and therefore should not
have been made the recipient of a
diplomatic communication.

The whole number of men engag.

Gettysburg was 100000; federal
10000, confederate, 10000. The
losses were 53,4S3, about equally
divided between the Blue and the
Gray. During the three days fight
ing the aggregate amount of lead
and iron shot at each other by the
two armies was 566 tons. In the
light of this fact the wonder is that
the losses were not very much
greater.
