Testimonial From
High Authority

Mrs. B. L. Wilson, of Nash
vile, Tenn, is famed the world
over for her wonderfully deli
cious cakes. They are shipped
to all parts of the globe for spec
ial affairs where the best OF
cakes are demanded.
Mrs. Wilson has the distinc-
ton of baking Christmas cakes
for the Presidents, in which she
uses Calumet Baking Powder.
She states:
ITO have complete success,
with no failures, care should be
used in the selection of Baking
Powder"
Calumet is completed with
the following testimonial from
her:
Some little time ago / made
a careful study and investiga-
ton of the baking powder sub
ject and | feel fully repaid. l
am firmly convinced from the
results l have received that
there is no baking powder to
equal Calumet for wholesome
ness and econo my, and I also
recommend Calumet Baking
Powder for its never failing re-
suits"
Calumet also received the
Highest Awards at the Worlds
Pure Food Exposition, Chicago /;
Grand Prize and Gold Medal,
Paris Exposition, 1912.
This will, without a doubt,
prove interesting and very graf
flying to the friends ana custom

No Separate Ballot for Women
In Superintendent Races

County Clerks have been adj
vised by Assistant Attorney Cen
eral M. NJ. Logan, 20 refuse to
provide special ballots for women
who wish to vote in the primary
for county superintendent unless
the circuit or county judge issues
on order requiring it.
In the confusion resulting from
the failure to secure a decision as
to whether or not women are en-
titled to vote, he said the safest
plan is for the clerk to seek the
direction of the court.
From the number of inquiries
made by clerks, it looks as if a
concerned demand has been made
on nearly all the clerks for sep
arate ballots.

The Markets.

The cattle market is firm and
strong all over the country and
big steers are selling at s cents
right along. In Chicago they are
higher, bringing from $685. to
$3.50. There is no doubt of the
scarcity of stockers as they are
finding a ready sale at 60 to 7 cts.
The hog market is firm and high
and good porkers are selling right
around the SO mark. This market
has been steady and strong for
many weeks and it is believed by
those men in the leading market
centers that hogs will reach $40
by Christmas time. Other stock
is selling equally as well and there
is little or no reason why the men
having stock to sell cannot make
good money this year. The only
thing to prevent stockmen making
money is the fact that they have
not the kind nor the quality to dis
pose of.-Blue Grass Journal.

Harvest Time.

Rye and wheat fields have r.
pened wonderfully and the golden
grain is looking exceptionally
well. From present indications
there should be good yield of
both wheat and rye all over Cen
trail Kentucky, while the outlook
for a good crop of wheat in the
west and middle west is much bet
ter than anticipated and growers
are having trouble in securing
good harvest hands, and this
is true, also, in some places in
Kentucky. Binders have been
running in rye and wheat fields
for several days. The oats crop
is growing well, the stalks begin
ming to head nicely and it is be-
lieved that there will be quite a
good deal of the oats this year.
This is an exceptional good feed,
and we are at loss to understand
why the Kentucky farmer does
not grow more of them.-Blue

Meadows OF No Account.

Reports from all over Central
Kentucky show that meadows are
in bad condition. and the yield OF
timothy will practically be nothing.
In most of the fields very little
timothy will be gotten, but clover
meadows are little better. The
loss of the timothy was caused by
the early drouth and from all in.
dications it is believed. that this
crop will be much scarcer than for
several years. If you have some
good timothy hold to it and you
will get good price, as it would
surprise no one to see timothy
hay reach $25 and $50 a ton b,
the good old winter time. Blue
