Crop Report For Kentucky Issued Septem
Der 10, 1913.

The general condition of crops in
Kentucky as of September 1st is any
thing but encouraging. On August 1st
an estimate was made by the various
crop reporters in the State with the
hope that rain would fall. Scattered
rains did fall during the latter part of
August, but they were either not suf-
ficient:: or not soon enough to make the
first of September estimate of the crops
even as high as the estimate of August
1st.
Corn has dropped to a condition of
58.4 per cent, which means but little
more than half crop. Burley tobacco
still remains at 65 per cent, but dark
tobacco has dropped to condition of
54 per cent. Alfalfa is 70 per cent,
cow peas "a per cent and soy beans 72
per cent of an average crop. The spring
sown clover shows an average con-
dition of 63 per cent. The leguminous

crops have held their own better than
any othercr crop during this drmth. Blue
grass is given at 60 per cent, orchard
grass at 62 per cent and pastures as a
whole are very inferior.
Live stock has suffered very materially
on account of short pastures and
a scarcity of water. The condition of
horses is given at 80 per cent, cattle 83
per cent, hogs 85 per cent and sheep 80
per cent. The condition of poultry has
likewise declined. Chickens are given
as 50 per cent, turkeys so per cent and
ducks 85 per cent.
All kinds of fruits have deteriorated.
Apples are small. many dropping from
the trees, and their condition is shown
as 67 per cent. peaches IA per cent,
plums SO per cent and pears So per
cent. Garden conditions are deplorable,
dropping to A per cent.
Abundant rain falls would not help
anything as far as this years crop is
concerned. The corn crop would grow
worse instead of better should abundant

IL is interesting to note that the general
opinion is that it costs S3.79 more to
grrw an acre of corn than an acre of
wheat. Last years corn production in
Kentucky was 30.4 bushels per acre.
The present report would indicate a
yield of about Is bushels per acre for
this year. Corn would have to bring
about n cents per bushel on the average,
based on this estimate of SI3.95, to pay
the uetual cost of production.

Proposition
For
Fair Election
Turned Down.

Lancaster, KY, Sept 1918
Pursuant to an appeal by the Pro-
gressive candidates for County Offices in
Garrard County, KY, published in The
Central Record for the last two weeks,
We the following candidates of the three
political parties, whose names appear
below, to be voted for at the coming
November election; realizing how much
it means to our people to have an cleo
tion at which there are no corrupting
influences used, and also realizing the
growth of public sentiment along this
line, and ever mindful of the fact that
in a government of the people, the
unpurchased majority must rule, we
the undersigned do most solemly pledge
to the people of Garrard County and
among ourselves that we are unalterbly
opposed to the use of any corrupting
influences whatever and do bind our
selves to use neither money nor whisky
nor will we allow it to be used by another
in any way to secure our election.
We also further affirm that we have
not in any way used any corruptiog
influences whereby we have bound any
person or persons to vote for us or any
other candidate at the coming November
election.
Referring to the above agreement
which was drawn and signed by the
Progressive candidates on Saturday the
5th. inst. to which they are pledged, we
express our great disappointment on
account of the fact that this appeal has
been utterly ignored by all of the can
didates of the other parties.
By their failure to come forward and
agree to stand for clean elections,
where no corrupting influences shall be
used, they proclaim to the people of
Garrard County, that they are in favor
of present conditions now existing
within our borders, which all good
people regardless of past party affilia-
tions must deeply deplore.
We are standing. in this elections,
not alone for the offices, to which we
aspire, for if that had have been our
only motive, we should never have
been before you at this time, but we
are standing for principles, which even
our opponents must acknowledge are
just and right.
We again express our deepest regret
at the stand taken by those gentlemen,
who are asking the good people of this
county to elect them to fill the various
offices for the next four years. We
had right to have expected better
things from our opponents, when the
very foundations of this Government
today are being undermined by just
such conditions as exist in this County.
We, therefore appeal to the people of
Garrard County, to show on which side
they stand; whether they are in favor
of cOnditians as they now exist, or
whether they are in favor of conditions
for which the Progressive party is
contending.

PORTLAND, Ore, Sept. 3.-Mr and
Mrs. John Mclaughlin, 971 Vancou-
yer avenue, are happy because they
have a baby in the home. How II
came to be landed in a basket on the
front porch is a mystery, but there

Attached to the basket was a note
in woman's handwriting asking that
the little one be adopted and well
cared or, as it was healthy and of
good parentage. The note bore no
signature and had no distinguishing
mark.
As the Mclaughlin home has been
without children, it did not take the
couple long to decide to adopt the
baby and the proper steps will be
taken for permission from the author

The baby is three weeks old, has
bright black eyes, and seems as happy
as can be.
