chasers are the same people who
recently took over a number of
public service properties in Cen

Of Interest to Farmers.

The attention of the farmers of
Madison county is again called to
the first of a series of lectures,
Saturday afternoon, F b. 9th, to
be given this winter and spring on
subjects of interest to farmers by
the, Farmers Union. Prof. E. ].
Kinney, of the State Agricultural
College at Lexington, will begin
the series with an instructive talk
on improved corn culture.
The time has long since past
when the farmer can afford the
old methods of our fathers which
did very well on twenty dollar
land, but in these days when good
farming land is selling around a
hundred and fifty dollars he is
losing money who does not know
the modern methods, One of the
best ways to make the high
priced land pay its just per cent
of interest is to learn how to
make it produce more and better
corn.
Prof. Kinney's lecture on better
corn is timely, as the corn plant.
ing season is upon us. The gen.
eral public as well as the farmers
Of the county are invited to attend
the lectures.
