Not much. How did they do it then ?
Oh, that's easy in an enlighted state.
The road passes thru twenty-three
counties. Each county voted bonds
and built its own section of the state
road under the supervision of the state
highway commission which was as
sisted by two highway engineers sent
from Washington.

PEACH GROWING Is a
PROFITABLE INDUSTRY

A farmer across the river in Indi-
ana recently sold his peach crop for
$4,000. Another Indiana man sold
his peaches for 81 a bushel in the
orchard. and it is estimated that
the crop amounts to 5000 bushels
These growers evidently are
operating their orchards on scien-
tific basis. They are growing good
varieties of fruit. They are giving
their trees proper attention. AS a
consequence they are getting good
prices for their peaches and they are
not even put to the trouble of deliv-
ering the goods. The buyers gather
the crops, pack and ship them.
Such results are possible only
when the grower exerts himself to
produce fine peaches. A peach tree
left to grow at random may bear
fruit, but it is not likely to be fruit
of kind that sells for a dollar a
bushel. An orchard without any
care whatever will produce something
in the way of fruit, but if the varie-
ties are poor and the quality is in
different, the returns are likely to-
be inconsiderable.
The peach orchards in Kentucky
have yielded splendid harvest this
year, but the great majority of fruit
growers have not profited materially
by it. This is because they have
not adopted scientific methods of
cultivation and have been oblivious
to modern ways of marketing

The October Woman's Home Com
panion.

The October WOman's Home Com
panion.
One of the special features of the
October Woman's Home Companion
is a call to American women to sup
port American industries. The idea
is that in the past American women
have preferred imported goods and
that in the present crisis they have
a splendid chance to show real pa
triotism by supporting our American
industries. The author of the article
is Ida NJ. Tarbell.
Another special war feature of
great interest is French woman's
personal recollections of the siege
of Paris at the close of the Franco
Prussian war.
The fashion department conduct
ed by Grace Margaret Gould, fashion
editor of the Woman's Home Com
panion, is filled with the latest news
and suggestions. beautifully illustrat-
ed and admirably adapted to the
practical needs of women.
Fiction of singular interest and
power is contributed by Grace S.

Margarita Spalding Gerry, Fannie

local option campaign in this coun-
ty, which will terminate in the
election next Monday. Several resi-
dents of Crofton, i'm the northern
part of the county, and the sur
rounding section have received
threatening letters. All the recip-
tents have been taking an active
part on the prohibition side of the
fight.
One of the notes was received by
Burkholder Brothers, one of the
leading firms of Crofton, and also
leaders in the prohibition ranks.
The note is printed in an awkward
hand with lead pencil on cheap
writing paper, and was mailed last
night at Crofton. Accompanying
the note was long thorn and four
matches.
The note reads
Notice. Burkholder Brothers

quiet. You have done enough.
Women please keep off the streets.
This was signed IN r. and this
follows:

A. l.. Burkholder brought the
note here to-day, and turned it over
to the authorities.

A man who thought he knew
something about cows started out to
buy family COW few days ago. A
dealer showed him one which he
said was eight years old, but the
prospective customer remarked that
he could tell cows age by her
teeth and proceeded to take a look
into the cows mouth. Then he turn
ed on the dealer and Indignantly
said, What do you take me for. any
way? l don't want COW that's so
old she hasn't any upper teeth"

cow. and II you don't see the joke,
