| can express the sentiments OF
the people IN and around Brod
head, Ky. relative to the proposed
bond issue, which is being SC
much discussed, at present.
SIN the first place l beg to say
the people of fhis part of the county
are not against good roads, but on
the other; hand are in favor, of
pixies, and the majority. in favor
of the bond issue. as We believe
this the only way to get pixies, is
by this method: but what theIpeo.
pie here oppose is the proposed
plan, to run two pixies across the
county, in opposite directions, re
gardless of the fact that these pro-
posed routes will not benefit as
many people as if run in other di.
rections.
"True that this method, will
give the people all a better road
in all directions to Mt. Vernon,
from all over the county, but sup,
pose the people in general. that
live closer to other towns, travel
other roads, all the year. except
some two or three times, he or she
might need go to Mt. Vernon, then
it would be best for that person to
have the pixies where they travel
most.
owe beg to say that the pike
passing over the route proposed.
namely, the old state road running:
through Brodhead, will not bene-
fit the town. nor be little benefit to
the people, because this road is
not used one-tenth part as much
as any other road leading out of
the town.
81 doubt not that the same
would apply to Wilde, Livingston,
and other points in the county.
Now, what we want isGfor each
magisterial district to receive its
proportional part of this amount.

that want the money spent in

money than those on some other

We will have the pixies where the

RICH POULTRY BY-PRODUCT
Chicken Runs, When Planted to cultl-
waited Crop, Will Give Large Crop
OF Anything Planted.

All farm animals yield an annual
profit beyond their other earning
capacity In their manure or droppings.
II their droppings are saved and used
right, they will amount to about "a
per cent. of the feed consumed.
Did you ever notice how fertile the
SOIL becomes around the poultry house
and grounds after the poultry have
run on the grounds for year or two?
such poultry runs, when planted to a
cultivated crop, will yield very large
crops OF almost anything that may be
planted. The reason is that the drop.
pings from the poultry, including
feathers shed. have supplied the soil
with variety of the richest fertilizers
that contain a variety of both mineral
and organic compounds.
Poultry droppings are the richest OF
all animal excreta. from the fact that
blrds consume a large quantity of
mineral matter for the production OF
egg shells, and also that their food is
ground up almost as fine as powder in
ly soluble. Manure OF poultry con
talns nitrogen, the most useful of all
the elements in plant growth, in two
forms-ammonia and mineral nitrates
1t also contains lime, phosphorus, pot
ash and number OF other fertilizing
elements. Pigeon manure is the rich
est OF all poultry fertilizers, being
worth commercially about SIS ton
or 3& cents a pound; more valuable.
bulk for bulk, than the feed they eat
chicken manure is worth from SIS to
$40 per ton, or as much as the highest
grade commercial fertilizers. With a
good sized flock OF chickens and the
right methods OF handling the drop
pings, the average farmer could save
large share OF his commercial fer
tiliZer bill.
Not all, by any means, OF the
poultry droppings are saved and used
on the average farm. Much OF them
fall upon the ground OF the run and
dissolve away where they are moi
needed. II these grounds are ever put
in cultivation some OF the richness Is
saved and will be represented in the
extra growth of the crop. However
these grounds are seldom used for cul
tiyated crops, and the good is never
realized from this rich by-product ol
the poultry yard. The writer knows
of very large poultry yard on farm
where the top soil is probably fouI
inches deep with this rich fertilizer
so rich that II the space were planted
to corn 1t would yield more than lot
bushels to the acre. On the same
farm land is annually cultivated that
scarcely pays for the labor and seed
used. The people running this farm
do not fully realize the value OF the
poultry manure, or they are toe
apathetic to remove 1t to the fields
and gardens where 1t would do much
good

to vary from about or to Q per cent,
the phosphoric acid from 05 to 2 per
