ENCOURAGING.
High Prices For Tobacco May Again
Prevail This Year.
ENCOURAGING.

Concerning the outlook for good
prices on the coming tobacco crop, the
following news from Washington is
very interesting.
The second report under the Cantrill
census law has just been issued and
shows very favorable condition of the
crop from the farmers viewpoint, es-
pecially as to the Burley type. 1t
should be borne in mind that there is
practically no Burley tobacco in the
hands of the farmer of the 1912 crop
and that it will be seven months before
the 1913 crop will begin to move to
market. On October l, 1912, there
were 25O, 900, 900 pounds of Burley in
the hands of dealers and manufacture
ers. From October l, 1912, to May l.
1913, the entire 1912 crop went into the
hands of.the manufacturers. This 1912
Burley crop was estimated at about
225, 900, 900 pounds, Adding this amount
to the 2l5,0OO,000 pounds on hand
October l, 1912, and then subtractlng
4
the 327, O00,0 900 pounds now on hand,
shows that 100000 pounds have
been consumed within the past six
months. 1t is fair to presume that
consumption of Burley will be the same
for the next six months as for the past
six. Upon this basis we will go to
market next winter under the Same
condition as last year, namely about
25O, 600, 900 pounds of Burley in the
hands of the manufactured. Last year
the entire crop of Burley sold for an
average of nearly fourteen cents a
pound and there is no reason why this
years crop, now being planted, should
not bring good price. This report
shows the consumption of Burley tobac-
co equals the production for the last
year.

Bull Moose To Conduct Aggressive
Campign In Eighty Counties.

The State Executive Committee Of
the Progressive party in Kentucky
concluded very important meeting in
Louisville on Tuesday. at which it was
decided to establish several newspapers
at various points in the state to advocate
their cause where it was deemed
expedient. 1t was also decided to place
candidates in the field in about eighty
counties. They will have candidates in
evey legislative district. and will adhere
to the primary as means of nominating.
Rules to govern during the coming
campaign were promulgated. One of
the most interesting rulings was that
no appointed official or Federal office
holder should be allowed to attend a
convention as delegate.

The failure of Garrard county to have
a stock fair this year is circumstance
which is very much TO be deplored, but
was occasioned by uncomfortable cir
cumstances. The news will be a dis
appointment to many people in this and
adjoining counties, who had come to
regard the Lancaster Fair" as fixed
institution, and where the best show
horses of the state were wont to gather
and compete for the liberal purses Of
fered. However, it is hoped that ere
the coming of another fair season that
a permanent association will be organ
lied, commodious grounds purchased
and equipped, and that for all years to
come Garrard may entertain her guests
as she has in the days agone.

Lancaster Not To Have A Fair.

We are sorry to announce that Lam
caster is not to have a stock fair this
year. We have hesitated to make this
announcement sooner, hoping that we
yet might have one, but it seems assur-
ed that we must let this season pass
without it. Many circumstances
combined to prevent having an exhibit
ton this year, but with the coming of
another year we hope to give one
digger and better than ever.
Garrard county has established an
enviable reputation for giving splendid
stock fair, and our people took great
pride in it, and we are exceedingly
sorry that it became necessary to miss
one exhibition, but it has been decreed
otherwise, and just remember the
promise above made for next year.

To the stranger who visits Lancaster
the many civic improvements in pro-
gress give favorable impression, lends
to the city an air of thrift, an air of
business pervades the atmosphere and
they go away imbued with the idea that
Lancaster is one of the best towns on
the map in accordance with its size.
Lancaster has great possibilities, and
is destined for great future. Sur
rounded by as good farming country as
is known in the world, traversed from
center to circumference by splendid
roads, there is no reason why the coun-
ty should not develop and the town
grow in keeping with that develop
ment. What we need is industries,
industries that will provide employment
for our labor, and at the same time
provide market for our products, and
some time we will have these. Our
people are rapidly becoming imbuedwith
the idea that it is better to have home

Catarrhal Fever Has About Run Its Cours,
Among The Stock OF The County
And Apprehension Rapidly Dis
appearing From The Minds
Of The Horse Owners.

Catarrhal fever which occasioned
such terrible scare and created some
havoc among the horses of the county
has about made its disappearance, and
with an occasional death from an old
case, and with no new cases making
their appearance the minds of horse
owners are becoming less and less ap-
prehensive, and within a very short
time it will have completely disappear
ed. Garrard county was not the only
locality to suffer from this disease,
press reports from all over the state
tell of its ravages, and over in Madison
our neighboring county, it is equally as
severe as it was reported to be in this
county. Reports as to the existence
of this disease and the fatalities re-
sulting therefrom are always exagger-
ated, and gather with the telling; this
was the case here and it is also the case
in Richmond, the loss of one horse by a
livervman grows to half dozen and a
scare grows with the exaggeration of
the story, and injury to business is the
result, However, there is no denying
the fact that the disease is a menace,
and every precaution should be exerci-
sed to prevent its spread, but in many
cases this precaution bordered on the
extreme. 1t is not good idea to throw
precaution to the wind however, be-
cause the disease seems to be on the
wane; sanitary measures should still be
observed, and every care taken to see
that your horses do not come in con-
tact with diseased stock, but with the
observance of these measures you may
be satisfied, and may go about your
daily vocation feeling that with proper
precaution your stock is safe from the
invasion of this or other diseases to
which they are peculiar.

Still In The Ring.

The friends of Col. T. 3. Robinson
say that his hat is still in the ring,
for collector of this district. They
say that he has formed no combination,
that he is running on his own merits,

any other aspirant for the place, as

Potatoes Fed Raw Or
Steamed To Fatten Hogs

An experiment to test the feed
ing value of raw or steamed po'
tatoes as supplementary feed
with a grain ration. has been
carried on by Robert Withycombe
at the Eastern Oregon Expert
ment Station with interesting re-
suits which will be of special
value this year on account of the
super-abundant potato crop.
The hogs in the experiment
were divided into eight lots. and
records of the different feed ra-
ton given each and the proper
tionate gain made were kept
carefully. Each hog in lots l
and 2 ate an average Of ITO lS
lbs. of barley and 509.53 lbs. of
raw potatoes, making a gain in
weight of 60.70 lbs. Those in
lots 3 and A ate 10. 80 lbs. barley
and 663.75 lbs steamed potatoes
and made a gain of TOGO los.
while those in lots 5 and 6 ate
1888. 60 potatoes and made a gain
of 78. 10 lbs. Lots 7 and 8 ate
300. 10 lbs. bareley without pota-
toes and made a gain of 69.5 lbs.
The last two lots, fed barley
alone, was used as a check on
the others to show definitely the
proportionate value on the mark
ct value of $.07 a pound in live
weight, the hogs fed barley made
a $4.87 gain, which makes the
barley feeding value SIG to the
hundred.
Lots / and 2, fed barley and
raw potatoes at the rate of 3 lbs
of potatoes to lib of barley, made
a $4.2 gain, which gives the aw
potatoes feeding value of $.29
to the hundred. Lots 3 and a,
receiving six times as much
steamed potatoes as barley, made
a $4. 94 gain. giving the steamed
potatoes a feeding value of SAT
to the hundred. Lots s and 6.
fed three times as much potatoes
as barley, made a $5.47 gain,
the feeding value Of the
potatoes S. AZ to the hundred.
1t is noticeable that those fed
six times as much of the pota-
toes as grain did not make quite
the gain made by the others,
but it required 90. .25 lbs. less
barley to make this gain, so the
in feeding value is ac-
for.
1t is also noteworthy that the
steam potatoes are worth $.13
more to the hundred than raw
for feeding, as shown in COM
parison of the gains of animals
fed the 3 to / ration.

Notes From The Harney
Experiment Station
my l.. r. Broithaupt, sup,. J

About one ton of field pea seed
arrived. Expect to plant at the
earliest opportunity. Also a
very wide variety of grains,
grasses, and other field crops are
arriving from all parts of the
United States.
Drewsey Sub-Station visited.
Rabbit fence installed, peas
planted. Planting will be done
on u limited scale at this Station
on account of the dry condition
of the soil. This condition is due
to the fact that the land was
broken late last summer and has
only the winters moisture in it.
! No particular success in growing
crops is expected until next year.
Have sent out sample packages
of seed all over the country Re-
ceiving and answering a great
many inquiries about crops and
how to grow them etc.
Planted a hot bed. Ordered
enough trees and small fruit to
plant two and q half acres. All
of hardy varieties and enough to
make a pretty thorough test OF
all varieties that are at all suit
able to this country. List OF
stock ordered to follow latter.
Also getting q wide variety OF
the hardy and early vegetables
for trial.
There is at present about fif-
teen acres of Winter grain on
Station, including 20 varieties OF
wheat. 2 of emmer, ] Of rye and
six of barley. The wheat and
rye is started out nicely on the
whole. The barley and emmei
has suffered considerable win
terkill.
Expect to plant about half OF
the station this year and summer
fallow the other half. Crops
will include an extensive trial OF
varieties of peas, wheat, barley,
oats, emmer, alfalfa, flax, pota-
toes, artichokes, corn, rape and
several others. Expect to plant
| Is acres of alfalfa for seed. 25
acre of field peas in double rows,
10 acres of wheat and consider
able quantities of oats, emmer,
barley, etc.

ACCUSED OF GRABBING LAND FOR STA.
Concluded From First page)

YES is concerned? The secret Of
that is that under the act Of 1906
settlers would have a right to go
in there and make applications
for these agricultural lands, and
if they were agricultural they
would have II right under the
law, if it were administered pro-
perly to acquire title to them.
But there was an exception to
the law, and that was that If the
lands were needed for govern
mental purposes the government
would have the right to retain
them in spite of the other provi-
sions of the law. SO, whenever
there is an agricultural area
which settler might utilize to
his advantage, in order to pre-
vent its being entered by u bona
fide settler they have established
thereon ranger station.
II think everyone will agree
with me that that is not conser-
walton, 1t is no part Of conser-
walton, 1t is what the president
elect called reservation. 1t is
impeding the settlement of our
country. 1t is that class of ad-
ministration Mr.. President, from
which ask relief, and nothing
else"
