Reports received in Louisville Thurs
day from Eastern Kentucky were said
to indicate steady gains for the Demo
cratic nominees in all that part of
Kentucky. MIR. Morrow, the Republi-
can nominee for Governor, himself
comes from the Eleventh district, and,
at first, the Republican leaders We're
disposed to make big claims in that
part of the State, but the pendulum
has begun to swing in the other direc-
tion and from many counties the re-
ports indicate Democratic gains.-Lou-

where these flock matings are used for

Flocks of 100 head should be the
limit-ffty would be better. But this
for egg farming only. When 1t comes To
breeding, the flock system Is entirely
wrong. While there may be good fer
tility, there will not be as good strong
chicks. Breeding pens should vary
according to the breed-from SIX to
fourteen females to male. In AsiaticS

females to male is best; In the Amer

Wheat comes nearer to the ideal poul-

 Judge Davis is determined to stop the practice of youths in Birmingham appropriating the automobile of some friend and enjoying ride without the friends knowledge and consent. To this end he assessed three young men who appeared before him yesterday to the tune of an aggregate of $40 with a warning. One of the young men was fined $20 and the other two were given S10 each. The young men admitted they had used the automobile for about an hour Friday night, but the evidence showed the car had not been damaged. not given the young men permission to use it and 1t was on his complaint they were arrested.
 Judge Davis says that hereafter he will make the sentences in such cases heavier and will increase the size of the fine until the practice is sup pressed.
