Revenue Counties and Prohibition.

Our good friend Ed Shinnick,
of the Shelbyville Record, prints
a lot of figures to show that the
''wet" counties of Kentucky pay
a very large proportion of the
revenue of the state and the
"dry" counties pay very small
part of it; that nearly all of the
wet" counties are paying while
nearly all of the dry" ones are
pauper counties. fhe inference
is that being a wet county makes
it rich and being dry makes it a
pauper county. This inference
is very misleading. No county
has ever become poorer by vot-
ing out the saloon and no county
become richer because of the
fact that it has saloons. The
revenue paying counties are
those which have large cities IN
them like Louisville, CovingtOn,
Newport, Lexington, Owensboro,
Paducah and Henderson. lt Is
the wealth of the cities which
create the revenue and not the
saloons in them, Other revenue
counties like Shelby, Bourbon,
Clark and Scott are so on account
of the fertility of the soil where
the land is worth from 500 to
5000 per acre and not because
they have saloons in their county
seats.
The assessed wealth of Kan
sas is three or four times as
great as Kentucky and Kansas
is dry" all over but its wealth
does not come from that fact,
but because the land is so pro-
ductive that one county raises
more wheat than the whole state
of Kentucky. The saloon never
creates any wealth except fol-
the saloon-keeper and neither
county nor All individual is a
pauper because there is no sa
loon to patronize. -E-Town News

Late Sowing Of Winter Wheat.

should be delayed as much as
possible to combat the Hessian
fly, whenever this pest is pres
ent. Throughout the Eastern
United States, where winter
wheat is generally grown, this fly
sometimes causes d a m a g e
amounting to over a million dol
lars in one year. Present indi-
cations are that the damage done
by the pest this year will be con-
siderable. Cooperative late
sowing by all the wheat growers
in the community, accompanied
by systematic destruction o f
stubble lind other breeding places
for the fly, seems to be the best
means to reduce its devastation.
Wheat should, however. b e
sown early enough to allow the
plants to become well establish
ed before winter sets in, yet not
so early as to allow them to be-
come jointed. If the first frost
is unusually delayed the wheat
grower would better plant, even
though there is still danger of in
jury from the fly, for otherwise
his losses may be greater from
the failure of young, poorly-root-
ed plants to survive the winter.
The best time for sowing win
ter wheat is about the first week
in September in the latitude of
northern Ohio. In the latitude
of southern Ohio, the last week
of September is best. Proceed
ing still farther south the best
date is still later, being about
the middle of October for central
Tennessee and central Oklahoma,
and about the first of November
Sor northern Georgia. In such
districts as the Piedmont section
of Virginia allowance must be
made for elevation. In the north
ern part of this State the middle
of September seems the best date
for sowing. while in the south
ern part, the last week in Sep
tember is preferable.
The general rule for seeding is
that there should be a difference
of one day for each 10 miles of
difference in latitude, and seed
ing should be approximately one
day earliear for each hundred
feet in increase in elevation.
There is usually, however, a per-
iod of several weeks in all the
winter-wheat area where sowing
may take place with about equal
results. This period is longer as
one proceeds to the southwark.
