TURKEY CROP IN BLUEGRASS
REGION REPORTED LARGE

The turkey crop of the bluegrass
region is reported to be the largest
and best for many years on account
not only of the dry weather OF the
early summer, but because the farmers
have found turkeys to pay so well That
more persons have taken to raising
them than ever before. Jesse 7. Wade,
a produce dealer of Lexington, has
been in the county on different occa-
sions during the last few weeks max
ing contracts for his fall supply OF
turkeys, and says the prospects this
year for banner crop are better than
ii has been at any time during the last
fourteen years.
The grasshoppers on which turkey
raisers depend for the thriving OF their
flocks in the early fall are reported
numerous, and the turkeys are said to
have never done better at this season
Of the year, Lexington consumes
about $4,000 turkeys, 1t is estimated,
and about an equal number are shipped
from there to points in the North and
East.

Several weeks ago while on Il visit

in Logan. w. Va An old resident OF
Louisa told her that her people In
Logan were anxious To see her. and
that they had something to irnpart TO
her that was very important Mrs,
Thumma left at once for Logan. not
suspecting the news that she was a
wealthy heir, Judge Wilkinson and
sheriff Don Chains, of Logan. are her
cousins, but she did not know 1t until
she went TO Logan and began inquiring
for certain parties. The Brewers are
well known in that part Of the country,
II was through her relatives there, that
she was Informed OF the gladstone news
which was hardly creditable, at ilrst,
She thought il too good TO be true. Mrs
Thumma was taken to the old farm
where on the hillside she found the
graves of her brother and sister, the
large stones at the head OF the graves
being placed there by her mother. The
lands are all underlald with valuable
veins OF coal and oil wells are found in
several places. The valuable timber
on the land would make one rich With

The land was homestead land, taken

ENFORCING FOOD LAWS.
Deputy Inspector Rowe Causes Arrest
of Loretto Dealer.
Says the Iron Mountain Gazette:

Says the Iron Mountain Gazette:
There is an ice cream dealer by the
name of Alphonse Lenordelli, at Lor-
etto, who is now firmly convinced that
John L. Rowe, upper peninsula state
dairy and food inspector is attending
strictly to the duties of his position. 1t
cost him $l2 to be convinced of the
fact. Lenordelli violated the state law
which compels all ice cream dealers to
thoroughly cleanse their ice cream cans
before sending them back to the fac
tory, by not complying with this pro-
vision.
THE enforcement of the state law
regarding the cleansing of ice cream
cans before sending them back To the
factory will be carried out to the letter,
says Deputy Rowe, and all ice cream
dealers If they know when they are
well off, will make it a point to comply
with the law. This issue is very
important one as it pertains directly
to the health of the public, and all
ice cream dealers who have any con-
sideration for the welfare of the pub
lie will see clearly that it is their duty
to cleanse all ice cream cans before
returning them to the factory. The
case mentioned ought to serve as a
warning to all others that Deputy
Rowe means business"
