.DROUTH
BROKEN
Tobacco and All Other
Crops in Excellent
Condition.
Tobacco Is Curing Nicely and the
Best Corp for Years Predicted.

Rain, which has been so badly
needed in this section, fell last
week, much to the qualification of
Montgomery county farmers. The
drouth had lasted oyer a period of
several months. Water for stock
and drinking purposes was badly
needed-in some instances farmers
had to drive their stock many
miles to water. The weather has
been excellent for the curing of to-
bacco, and hundreds of barns are
practically cured out and stripping
has begun. The tobacco is of ex-
cellent quality, although there is
some badly house burnt. The crop
in the Bunker's Hill and North
Middletown sections is especially
fine. Growers are max ing arrange
ments to use more care in stripping
and handling the crop, as they re-
alize that this alone will add to the
price of the weed. A very few
sales have been made, although it
is reported 124 cents has been Of
fered and refused for several crops.
The wheat and rye crop is look
ing good since the rain, although
it was injured some by the recent
drouth. Corn cutting is being rap
idly pushed and will soon be COM
pleted. The prevailing price is
$2.75 and So per barrel. Owing
to the large number of cattle that
will be fed here this winter there
have been few sales of corn. Blue
grass pastures were seriously in
jured by the drouth, but show
some Improvement since the rain.
Chickens and turkeys are plenti-
full, there being more here than in
many years. The Irish potato crop
is undoubtedly the largest and best
ever grown in this county, and it
is expected the home market will
almost be able to supply the de-
mand. All kinds of stock are do
ing well, and taken as a whole, the
farmers are in a prosperous condi-
ton.

Return from Delightful Trip.

Judge G. B. Swango and wife,
who have been touring the western
part of the United States, Canada
and Mexico since the first of July,
returned home Friday after most
delightful trip. They were in
twenty different states and visited
three separate nations. While
gone they travelled in all kinds OF
conveyances known to the present
time. They visited China Town
and partook of their Inequalities,
also many villages inhabited ex,
clusively by foreigners and dozens
of Indian towns and villages, one
of which was in Arizona and was
controlled by Indian officers and
policemen. At Terre Haute, Ind,
they visited their son, Judge Jas.
H. Swango, and his family, and at
Missoula, Mont, they visited an
other son, j. Morton Swango, and
his family, and found both doing
well and prospecting. In all, they
travelled over 10000 miles.

BIG SUIT
BROUGHT
Against Burnley Tobacco
SOCiety-Sum Asked
For is $4,000.
The Amount Is Alleged to be Due
the Insurance Dept of Ky.

Judge Lewis Apperson, of this
city, and Attorney General Gar
nett. of Frankfort, Friday after
noon filed in the Franklin County
Circuit Court suit against the Bur-
ley Tobacco Company, of Lexing-
ton, for 500, 900, alleged to be due
the Insurance Department of Ken
lucky as taxes for transacting the
business of insurance in this state
without authority. The suit was
brought in the name of Auditor
Henry M. Bosworth, representing
State Insurance Commissioner
Matt G. Clay, of this city.
1t appears that it was part of
the agreement between the pooler
land the Barley Tobacco Society
l that he should be charged a certain
amount of insurance, storage, ETC.,
and that the poolers have paid to
: the society the sum of $277 900
for that purpose. This sum, it is
alleged further. was in turn paid
over to the Burnley Tobacco Com
pany, which assumed the risk in
/, stead of some regularly admitted
stock company, as the law requires.
1t will be remembered that in 1909
the Burnley Tobacco Society en-
deavored to amend its charter per-
hitting it to do such an insurance
business, but on a ruling from the
Attorney General such permission
was refused. Regardless of this
opinion, however, it is alleged that
the society continued its insurance
feature. Hence the suit to recover
the taxes alleged to be due.
1t is said that a great deal of
dissatisfaction has arisen among
the poolers regarding the action OF
the tobacco company, many claim
ing that the company had no legal
right to collect this sum of money
from them for the purpose of in
surance. 1t is believed that numer
Gus similar suits will be at once
filed by /poolers in different sec
tions to recover their part of the
$277 900, and much litigation will
follow. The outcome of this suit
will be watched with interest by
tobacco men and members of the
society all over the state, as it in
wolves an important question of
law. upon the insurance depart
ment of the state awaits a decision
from the highest courts.

SPLENDID
PROGRESS
Being Made on Mammoth
Tobacco Warehouse
in This City.
VIII be Completed In Plenty Time
to Take Care of Crop.

AS all the steel has now arrived
that is to be used in the construc-
ton of the mammoth tobacco ware
house that is being erected by the
Farmers Tobacco Warehouse Co.
in this city the work will be pushed
as rapidly as possible, and the Of
6cers are assured by the contractor
that the building will be completed
in plenty of time to care for the
seasons crop. The building of a
warehouse of this character is a
great undertaking and the men
who are behind the movement de-
serve a great deal of credit for
their enterprise and thrift, and the
benefits that it will bring to our
city should be thoroughly appre-
ciated by every business man here.
The management will have plenty
of buyers here and the prospects
are bright indeed. For the benefit
of those farmers who are in a great
hurry to get their crop stripped
and to market we reprint the fol-
lowing:
The Lexington Tobacco Associa-
ton in letter which it will send
out to the growers of Bnrley to,
bacco in Central Kentucky, says
In view of the fact that fol
several years there has been a
good deal of tobacco stripped and
offered too early, and for the wei.
fare of the farmers that they may
get the full value of their labor,
we wish to call their especial at,
tention to the following:
"First-Do not strip your to-
bacco until the stems are thor,
oughly cured. as wet or swollen
stems make it impossible to dry
and also prevent it's selling for its
full value.
Second I'm d err no circum.
stances sprinkle or put water or
your tobacco to bring it in case, as
it not only Injuries tobacco, but
prevents it being dried through a
drier successfully, and necessarily
forces the selling price down far
below its real worth.
"Third-Be careful to strip your
tobacco and grade it so that each
hand will contain only leaves OF
the uniform grade and color,
"Fourth-Do not tie the hands
too large, so that they can be dried
out in going through a drier; and
be sure to have the hands tied
tightly so that the leaves will not
be dropping out.
From all information we gather
we are led to believe that the crop
is better this season than usual
and if properly handled with care
we believe it will sell WE'LL"
We would, therefore, advise our
readers to take their time, get
their crop to market in good con-
dition and bring it to the Mt.
Sterling market. We are conf
dent you can get just as good
prices here as anywhere in the state.

, who would like a good boy friend.
She can't reform all young men. The
task is too stupendous. But she can
reform those she knows by being in
different.
She can be Indifferent at all times.
Size can snow him that her good times
are not dependent on his whim or his
pleasure.
She can find to her own benefit that
there are gay times with her father,
her mother and brothers and sisters,
and her girl friends.
She can be so happy excluding him,
that he will get on his pedestal and
attempt to break in.
Perched up there, he takes no inter-
est in the girl who tries to attract his
attention. Bu- re is interested in the
girl who laughs and is happy, and con-
tent, and who doesn't show that she
knows of his existence.
He wants her to know that he is
roval parsonage, and he climbs down
to meet her. If she is Indifferent to-
his claims OF royalty and cares not
that he belongs by all right of man
worship on a pedestal, he will become
so interested in her he will never climb
up again.
If there is any one word I would

mitted to become one of her humble
