land and in feeding value Il Is about
the equal OF corn pound for pound. In
fact II more nearly approaches corn IN
composition than any other OF our
cereals. Winter barley natures about
the first OF June in the central part OF
Kentucky. and Is available for feed the
earliest of all grain crops. Winter barr
ley furnishes excellent fall pasture
and can be pastured considerably Ia
tho spring and still produce a fair crop.
II Ia the best nurse crop we have for
clover and grasses. Maturing so
early, Il III possible to mature other
crops or the land after It's removal.
Barley should be sown preferably early
in September, but In the southern part
of kentucky 1t can be sown as late as
the first OF October with reasonable
degree OF safety.
Turf oats is another fall sown crop
that can be grown satisfactorily in
Kentucky, especially In the western
part OF the State. The secret OF sue
cess with this crop is early sowing. II
sown by September to 10, these oats
will stand all but the most severe
winters and will yield much better than
spring oats. as they are not injured 80
greatly by dry hot weather. Turf oats
make good hay II cut In the milk stage
and is one Of the most important
southern hay crops.

Are Union Miners Being sunooeda

Charleston. w. Va.-The European
war has again emphasized the impor-
lance of the smokeless coal fields OF
West Virginia, and it has also served
to bring attention to the fact that nom
union miners in these fields are more
happy and more prosperous than I'M
ion miners in other fields of the coun-
try. Men Of the Kanawha field are
now comparing their statuswith that Of
the miners of the New River. Virginian
and Pocahontas regions. The result OF
this comparison has been anything else
but gratifying to the union miners. In
the first place, the Kanawha men have
been compelled to lose time this sum-
mer when business was slack all over
thee ountry and other work was aot
to be had. This meant that their WV
es and families, in many cases had to
get along with just enough FOOD 10
keep them from starving, and just
enough clothing to keep them decently,
but hardly comfortably, clad.
Members of the Miners Union are
not unmindful of the fact that the nom
: union miners in the three smokeless
fields have had work all the summer,
and that there have been no suffering
and anxiety there. Non-union men
have had comfort, happiness and pros
perity, without having to pay anything
but labor for them. But, as was point
ed out by miner who was on strike
recently, the union men have, month
in and month out, beein paying union
dues with regularity, and have receiv-
ed for their regular payments loss OIL
time, wages comfort and peace OF
mind. 1t has also finally dawned on
some of the union miners that while
the men in the smokeless fields were
working regularly and easily keeping
the wolf from the door, and they were
losing time and wages, the labor lead
ers, for whom the dues had been col
Iected, had lost neither time nor wages
One union miner, whose dues are for
chilly collected by means of the check
off, has observed that the whole union
situation could be remedied II the Ia
Dor leaders were paid as long as there
was no strike, and not paid when there
was one.

Let the Girls Romp.

Many mothers have dread of romps
so they lecture the girls daily on the
proprietfes and exhort them to be lit
tie ladies' They like to see them quiet
and gentle and prim as possible. The
lot of such children is pitiable, for they
are deprived of the fun and frolic
which they are entitled to. Children
boys and girls-must have exercise
to keep them healthy. Deprive them
of it, and they will fade away like
flowers without sunshine. Running,
racing, skipping, climbing-these are
the things that strengthen the mus
Giles, expand the chest, and build up
the nerves A mild dose of gymnastics
taken in the nursery win not invigor-
ate the system like good romp in the
open air. Mothers therefore, who
counsel their little girls to play very
quietly make mistake. Better the
laughing. rosy checked, romping girl,
than pale, lilyface one who Is call
ed every inch q lady. The latter rare
ly breaks things or tears her Dress or
tires her mothers patience as the for
mer does; but after all what does the
tearing and breaking amount to?
A mothers duty is never better done
than when she instills into the lives
Of her boys and girls the higher cour-
age of honorable living, principles OF
truth, nobility and purity that they
may go out into the world Of social
and political life, free from the narrow
self interest, dishonesty and petty
scheming which ever threaten to UNI
dermine our country's life and the lib
erty dear to every true American heart.
Comfort depends as much upon per-
sons as things. II Is out OF the char
acter and temper OF those who govern
homes that the feeling OF comfort
arises, much moro than out OF the
handsome furniture, heated rooms or
household luxuries and convenience

Divorce.

Love is blind sometimes, no matter
If the cooling and the courtship be
carried on amidst the roses and tus-
sore-silk curtains and soft divans OF
a mansion. And when the scales have
fallen from the eyes, the sweet MOTH
ings that were whispered while the
hand was softly pressed, are seen to be
the bitter NORWOOD of deception and
flattery. Either that, or the unfortu-
nate and quarreling welded persons
have learned too late that they are
badly mated and it were better they
had never loved or, perhaps, pretended
to love each other. Then a suit for
divorce is filed. The court and public
soon learn that the suit is the outcome
of domestic infelicities that have de-
stroyed the happiness of at least two
parties for some time past. So history
continues to repeat itself.

SAVED BY PRESENCE of MIND
Jew outwitted Russian Guard by Imi-
tation That Must Have Been
Remarkable.

Aaron Seidentaft is clever fellow,
as you may understand when you learn
how his quick wit recently brought
him safely out of situation of the
utmost peril. Aaron desired to visit
Russia, but he had no passport, He
said to his friend Mendel:
You have passport I'll get into
a big bag and you shall carry me
across the border. If the frontier
guard asks you to put the bag down,
you'll say you can't because there s
glass in it and it will break"
Mendel was obliging. He shouldered
the bag with Seidentaft in it and APP
preached the boundry. The frontier
guard asked what was in the bag and
Mendel answered. Glass" Thereupon
the soldier drew his sword and ran il
through the bag. 1t might easily have
gone very hard with Seidentaft if he
had forgotten his role and cried out
But he didn't Instead he made a
noise like this: Killing, klang." And
so he got alive into Russia
He often relates his adventure and
he always adds: When one is labeled
glass, one must behave like glass -

later in Butte, Mont Sept. 4, 1905,
this veteran met his Waterloo at the
hands of the young mat Hercules from
Humboldt.
Gotch trained long and hard For this
match, expecting one of the hardest
battles of his career. The match
proved surprise to both Gotch and
his more experienced foe.
Gotch rushed Carkeek to the edge
of the mat when Referee Mcdonald
called time The wrestlers came to
the center of the mat. took the referee
hold and spared for some effective
grip.
Carkeek was famous for his trick
cry and kept Gotch on the lookout for
the unexpected every moment. Car
keek shifted to one side and resorted
to an old stratagem. trying to trip
Gotch to the mat Gotch was partly
overbalanced and came near going un-

Neither wrestler was able to put his
opponent down for several minutes
They tugged and pulled and shifted

lightning like move, caught Carkeek
by one of his legs and hurled him to
the mat.
Carkeek, who had defeated a host
of wrestlers with more or less ease
at this stage learned something of the
sort of man he was wrestling. Try as
he would, he could not rise. He re
sorted to every trick known to the
game to come to his feet, but to nc

sesses much refinement. And judging
from his past work in the ring he is to
be judged some fairly good fighter.
He faced Gunboat Smith. Luther Nc

When he was fifteen years Of age
he stole away from his home, and
after some difficulty enlisted in the

went to England and attended school
This was, of course. after the war.
He was an apt scholar, big and strong,
with plenty of nerve. He made hit

love for athletics and because of his
strength. His wonderful athletic 'abiIi-

game that Rodel became boxer
In d certain game there was one

the game, and after the gridiron game
the Boer repeated the performance in
real fistic fashion. He displayed so
much skill that fellow students pre-
