well yersed in bird lore and were
interested in protecting the life of
their feathered friends.
We experience one difficulty
over the postal regulations, which
says that all documents that are

all is, that from now on we will
have to pay q double rate where

THOUSANDS DISTRIBUTED
AMONG TOBACCO GROWERS

The 1907 and 1909 tobacco pools,
which marked the beginning of the
formation of the great Burley Tobac-
co Society, and later resulted in the
organization Of the Burley Tobacco
Company, have been brought to a
close by the distribution of $316,052
among farmers of fifty-two counties
of the State.
This was announced Friday. This
money represents percentages with
held from the farmers at the time the
pooled crops were sold to meet the
expense Of anticipated law suits and
other expenses of the Society, and
formed the basis for numerous efforts
to compel distribution to growers.
The distribution sweeps the treas
urys of the Burley Tobacco Society
clean, and that once powerful organi-
zation of farmers is now practically
al an end.
Many Of the functions undertaken
by the Society are now being per-
formed by the Burley Tobacco Com
pany,a cooperative corporation.
Over twenty millions were handled by
the Society during its handling Of
various pools.
Mason county will probably receive
more than any other county as a re-
suit of this distributor, the 1907 pool
holding S15,146 to the credit of the
farmers in that county, and there was
also $9,371 in the 1909 fund.
Distribution to the other counties
was made as follows:
Fayette-1907: $7,457; 1909: $5,-
149.
Franklin-19O7: $5,4S1; 1909: 49,

GIGANTIC CROPS IN PROSPECT

Prospects for big crops this year

succession Of snow storms over the
country, in the opinion of officials of

The longer the snow blanket ling

the assurance of gigantic crops of
corn and wheat, better vegetables,

There has probably been no time
when there has been greater doubt as
to what may be the next turn in the
wheel of Fashion, and this was shown
in the choosing of the gowns exhib-
tied. The Directoire type mingled
freely with the crinoline styles of the
early Victorian period; the straight
lines of the former styles, with it's
coats short in front and long behind,
contrasting forcibly with berufled
skirts receded to stand away from the
body, and with one example of the

Among the coats and wraps were
many capes. They were very full at
the back, and sometimes fastened to
loose-fitting sleeveless vest. Taffe-
ia and MORE were used for those for
evening wear, while broadcloth and
duvetyne were used for street and aft
ernoon wear. A handsome coat of
taffeta was shown. 1t was very full
in the back, blousing over an exagger-
atedly low waistline, below which
hung a plain circular peplum. Sew
eral jackets had cape of the same
material fastened to the shoulder and
hanging TO the waist. One had double
circular capes which came just below
the shoulders.
Among the jackets the kimono cut
was most prominent, by far exceeding
the raglan or set-in sleeves. This
certainly should please a woman who
makes her own clothes. A tan jack
ct. made in this manner, was very
short in front and longer in the back.
A circular piece was attached just be-
now the bust line, about three inches
wide, fitting plainly in front and grad
