Advance In Price
OF the Paper.

Owing to the increase in price
of all products used in the print
ing business, we find that it will be
necessary to increase the price of
The Times after January 1.
Paper, ink, and in fact, every
thing used in the publishing of a
newspaper, including labor, has
advanced in price, and it is i'm
possible to get out a paper at the
old price of fifty cents. Nearly
every county paper in the State
has advanced the price from 81 to
$3.50, and, as far as we know, The
Times is the only one that has re-
manned at the same price. In or
der to give everyone a chance to
still take the paper, we will &C
ccpt subscriptions at the rate of
Oh cents until January L, after
which the increase will go into eff
feet.
1t is our intention to add still
more to the size and attractiveness
Of The Times Office, and will have
more correspondence from points
in the county, as well as running
some good serial. stories, the first
of which will start next week.
Better take advantage Of re lew
price while ut lasts Those who
are in arrears after the first of the
year, will be cut off, and only
those who are paid up will receive
the paper.

To INVESTIGATE iUbA, - i.U~i

Representative j. G. Cantrill
has been taking an active interest
in the tobacco markets throughout
the State, and as a result of his
Investigations he will have Con-
gress institute a probe into the
conditions of affairs, in order TO
ascertain whether the tobacco
men are real contenders for the
crops of Kentucky farmers or
whether they are simply in collu-
sion with one another in an ef-
fort to lower the price to the last
notch.
The tobacco trust was dissolved
a few years ago by the Federal
authorities, but the present condi-
ton of affairs would lead one TO
believe that it has come to life
again. Aid will first be asked
through the Department of JUS
tice, and the investigation will be
conducted by the Attorney Gen
eral. 1t is said that the prices
which have been offered on the
Kentucky markets are much lower
than conditions warrant.

Complaint Of Members Of Home Made

For nvestisation-eaeen Below the

Iosue Says.

For the purpose of investigating
complaints about the quality of certain
foods served at the soldiers home, the
members of the board of control spent
Monday afternoon at the home. AS
result of their visit 1000 pounds of
bacon, recently received from Des
Moines packing company that has the
annual contract was ordered refused
and returned to the packers.
Altho. according to sources OF in
formation in Des Moines. it was said
that complaints had been made by
members Of the home regarding the
hash, beans, and bacon served, J. H.
Mozambique, Of the board. said before
leaving here that the chief cause OF
complaint was the inferior quality of
the bacon.
Not Up to Sample.
'we had said Mr. Mozambique be-
fore going to Oakdale Monday night,
the sample of bacon in coid storage
at the home on which the contract for
the bacon complained of was let There
was cause for complaint for the ship
ment was by no means up to sample
The board left instructions at the
home to notify the packing company
that the bacon would be refused and
returned at once. Inquiry at the home
this forenoon showed that this was be-
ing done.
Members Of the board Gid not say
that there was any other just cause for
complaint about other articles of food
served at the home. Other members of
board here were Senator A. NJ. McColl,
Woodward. and W. ]. Dixon. Sac City.
Complain to Governor.
According TO a story printed in the
Monday evening issue of the Daily
Capital. Des Moines. tweuty-four mem
oers of the home complained TO the
governor.
This story says:
Charging that their meals are Oft
times unfit TO eat and that hash is
too frequent q diet 70 appeal to their
appetites. twenty-four old soldiers in
the soldiers home at Marshalltown
sent an appeal for an investigation to
Governor Clarke.
Members of the board Of control
left today for Marshallto-Tn to make
the investigation required when the
petition was turned over TO them by
the governor. The detailed contents OF
the petition are withheld in the offices
Of the board OF control.
THE veterans complained particu-
iarly against the beans ard bacon
served them, it is reported. They said
the beans are unwholesome and the
bacon is similar in quality. 1t is be-
iieved that the petition makes charges
against other than food conditions at
the institution.
Members of the board will investi-
gate the charges fully and if found to
be true will take action accordingly"
