in a wreck which occurred on
Saturday. on the l.. & E. railroad

ment, together with the caboose.

severely bruised and pinned un.
der the cahOose, which caught
fire. He was rescued, however,
by the rest of the train crew and

The trouble arose over McKin.
ney's cutting what Puckett con.
tended was a line tree. The tree
was standing on piece of ground
that had been in controversy be-

settled by Mckinney taking the

it, union labor must be imported

SUN SHIN E!

The Italians have a saying, Where
the sunlight is shut out, the doctor is
let in" Fire, steam and few power
full chemicals are the only things that
will kill disease germs as quickly as
sunlight. The germ in the spit Of
consumptive. exposed TO the glare of
the July sun for an hour or two, are
dead or harmless. Nor Is the sun
sh.ne any more friendly to the other
tiny enemies OF mankind. Consequent
y, leave your windows and shutters
open for the fresh air and sunshine
several hours every day. II you are
afraid 1t is going to fade the carpet,
take up the carpet. Bare floors are
cleaner and consequently more health
ul any way. Instead OF carpets use
rugs and frequently expose them to
he fresh air and sunshine. Give the
fresh air and sunshine as much access
to your whole body as possible. Exer-

A Six Page Paper.

Wa said last week that it was
our intention to enlarge our pa
per, but we did not think then
hat the enlargement was so
soon. We greet you this morn
ing with elk page paper which
is a 500 enlargement. This is
not permanent, We had so much
advertising this week, we
thought to carry it all on the
four pages would be cheating our
readers, thus we printed the six
pages. Our intention is, if the
business justifies, to make the
paper a six column folio instead
of a five. The six page paper of
the present size would be even a
larger paper, but the press work
is too great on six pager. Ii
you want to see the paper en-
large and improve come in and
pay up, and in this way help US
10 get money to buy new cyl
inder press, for we will have to
buy one if we enlarge.

ton and brought but $40 90 per
acre. The farm was on a good

Kentucky Crop Report.

giving the farmers an opportuni-
ty of ascertaining the final yield
of the corn crop, and to get a
better idea as to the final yield
of tobacco. This is the last re-
port that the Department will
publish In 1913. The next re-
port will be as of May LIST, next
year.
The long drouth in Kentucky
has been broken. There has been
sufficient rain.f Ill to start the
Fall sown grain off in splendid
condition, and stock water in
most places is now plentiful.
Fall grass is starting to grow,
but it is too late in the season
for any great amount of pasture
to be secured. The cold weather
and short supply of grass have
caused the farmers to begin feed
ing stock from month to six
weeks earlier than usual. Quite
"a good deal of Fall blowing has
been done.
The final yield of corn in Ken
lucky for 1913 as reported is
205 bushels per acre. The Gov
eminent estimate for 1912 was
30.4 bushels. The final yield of
Burley 'obaccO is reported as 800
pounds per acr,. AS there was
an acreage of approximately
lie, 900, his would indicate that
the Burley CROP of Kentucky
would be 1l5,0O0,0O0 pounds.
The final yield of Dark tobacco
is SOB pounds per acre, and with
Ian acreage of approximately
I5O, 900, makes the total yield
of Dark tobacco about 75,OOO,-
900 pounds. The drouth has cut
corn about one-third, Burley to-
bacco about one-third and Dark
tobacco about one-half.
The precent of wheat sown is
given as 91.5 and the condition
of this wheat as 91.S. This IN
dicates rather a large crop OF
wheat for next year. A large IA
creage of rye, given as 96.5, has
been sown, and the condition Is
given as 1913. Alfalfa, clover,
orchard grass and blue grass all
show up IN fairly good condition.
The rains have revived many Of
the grasses that looked as If they
would not be of any more value.
Hog cholera has abated i'll GER
tain sectione of the State, but is
raging in the mountain sections
and in Western Kentucky. Many
of the hogs that are usually fat
tened upon the mast of the TIM
Der regions are this year dying
from cholera. Catarrhal Fever,
or Black Tongue has broken out
among horses in but one place in
TIE State, and that is in South
eastern Kentucky.
A great deal of the corn that
has been produced is unsound.
The supply of roughness is short,
and with practically no winter
pasture and with feeding begin
ming SO early, large death rate
may be expected among the live
stock of the State this winter.
Warm, sanitary quarters are al
ways a good thing for live stock,
but are absolutely Necessary
where the supply of food is moi
up to the standard. Farmers can
save the lives of a great many
animals by preparing c0mf0rta.
BILE quarters for them now.
