Noted Farm Sold.

Col. Jack Chinn sold his fine 235 acre
farm, the famous "Leonatus" yester-
day to Bonita Bros. The price paid is
said to have been S155 per acre. This
farm is fine one and one of the most
celebrated stock farms in the blue
grass region, and COL Chinn sold it be-
cause he was getting too far along in

Becoming Dry.

Rain is neeeed badly, stock water
is becoming scarce. cisterns getting
low and the dust is almost intolerable
Wheat sown is also in need of
showers. The tobacco men with the
coming of sufficient rain to "make a
season" will begin the stripping out
of the splendid tobocco crop. The dry
fall has been very conducive to the
curing of tobacco, and one of the very
best crops ever raised in the county
is the result of the splendid conditions
which have prevailed since the setting
out of the crOnS.
