J0HNETTA FARMERS IMPROVE
MENT CLUB

A few months ago an organization
known as the Johnetta Farmers I'm
provement Club was organized by
County Agent r. +. Spence, OF the U.
S. Department OF Agriculture.
In this section Of the County better
farming had never been introduced.
The farmers were going on with the
same old methods OF their fore
fathers. They had no idea OF the
real worth Of their farms, what
could be done or what crops were
most suited for the improvement OF
the soil.
The object Of this organization Is
that each farmer shall bring the
problems that bother him most and
have them discussed in the club
meetings in order that each one
will have the benefit OF the knowl-
edge derived from the discussions.
They have always paid very high
prices for their seeds, fertilizers,
TAI w lo'lS, wv" ihis oikhiiiIdeioh
has made il possible 10 buy all these
things at club rates. which has
proved a benefit 10 the members.
By the aid OF our County Agen,
and the Y. S. Government, new crops
have been introduced, such as cow
peas, rye as cover crop, new
grasses; such as oat grass and Su-
dan grass. Nearly every farmer is
now ready to put his farm under
the advice Of the County Agent TO
be used as a demonstration for the
benefit OF his neighbor.
Young orchards have been set out
on the northern slopes, while better
methods OF pruning the old orchards
have been introduced this year.
They are ready 10 testify 10 the
results Of spraying against the pest
OF San Jose Scale with lime OF sui
phur. They have learned that this
pest has injured the trees all oycI
the country.
Not only more crops are being
grown and the rotation OF crops be-
ing practiced, but the farmers are
planning to cultivate more and big
ger crops next year. They are get
ting ready for fall blowing and are
now killing the weeds. Every man
and boy available are in the co'n
fields fighting the weeds.
Does such an organization pay ?
Does il help the farmer? With the
above facts before us we shall have
TO admit that it does. Why then are
there not more OF these organiza-
tons all over this territory? These
are benefits that we all can enjoy
il we but go after them. We are
proud of our Farmers Club at
Johnetta and advise all other COM
munities TO organize Clubs; so as
to get the best results from our
farms. II pays us TO get together
and discuss our farm problems.

TOM RHEA HAS PROVEN FRIEND
TO TAXPAYERS OF KENTUCKY
Played Important Part In Forcing Large Corpor-
atoms to Pay Their Just Proportion Of Taxes
and is Best Qualified In Every Way for
Authorship

II 10 natural and proper that the
Democrats OF Kentucky should take a
deep interest In the selection OF their
candidate for Governor on August 7.
but they should not allow that race
TO overshadow all others and cause
them to neglect or overlook other i'm
portant races. Especially should they
give their attention to the Auditors
race, for that position ranks In i'm
portance next to that OF Governor.
The Auditor is the head OF the fiscal
affairs of the state and the head OF
the important Board OF Franchise AS
sessments which fixes the franchise
valuations upon which all corporations
doing business in the state must pay
taxes. The work OF that board is OF
far reaching importance to the people.
nnd, above all others, the Auditor, who
'presides as chairman Of the board,
should be a man we'll equipped and
trained for It's difficult duties. and one
who IL incorruptible and fearless,
ready to compel the corporations to
pay their Just part Of the revenues OF
the state. without being unjust to any
corporation or persons.
Such a man is Thos. 8. Rhea, who Is
asking the nomination from the Demo
cratic party. and there Is not a man
in Kentucky better qualified for the
position or more deserving OF the sup
port Of the Democrats. As State Treas
urer for nearly four years in the pres
emit administration, he has been a mem
Der OF that board and q leading spirit
in its splendid work. With his intel
ligsnt and active assistance, the fran
chise assessments upon corporations
have been so increased that the state
10 now receiving several hundred thou
sand dollars more In revenue every
year than ever before. The board has
increased the franchise valuation upon
all corporations from $4s,000,000 to
$132, 100000 Four Of the largest rail-
road companies, whose assessments
were raised. have carried It into the
courts; and, II the courts uphold the
action of the board, the increased rev.
enue. together with the large increase
from other corporations. which have
not contested the raises, will be a
great help to the taxpayers. and in a
reasonable time aid materially In pay
ing of the Indebtedness OF the state.
In the four years of this administra-
ton, the increase Of revenues from the
increased assessments Of those corpor-
atoms, which have not made contests,
will alone amount to sum to the state
far in excess Of q million dollars; and
the increase Of revenues from the
same sources to the counties, cities.
towns and school districts will amount

to about two million dollars for the
same period. Should the courts up
hold the action Of the board In regard
to the four railroad companies, II
would add about one million dollars
more to the state, and about two mil
lion dollars more to the counties,
cities, towns and school districts in the
same four years.
No man has had more to do with
this great work than Tom Rhea, and
no man now seeking a nomination for
q state office is better prepared than
he to render useful and valuable serv-
ice to the state and to the people in
the next four years. No other man
seeking this ONCE has ever had the
slightest experience with its duties.
Some Of his enemies, at the beginning
OF this campaign, undertook to crit
icise him and his record as an official.
but they had to quickly abandon such
attacks, because the published facts
clearly disproved their misrepresenta-
tons. In the next administration, Mr..
Rhea would prove himself a tower Of
strength to the state In the conduct
Of its revenues and fiscal affairs.
As Democrat and party worker.
there is not a blot upon his record.
Four years ago. when he was on the
state ticket as the nominee for Treas
urer, he added great strength to the
ticket. as was shown by the increased
majority Of $500 given in his judicial
district alone. Last fall. In the Sem
atorial and Congressional races, he
was chosen by the Democratic State
Committee as Campaign Chairman,
and under his intelligent and success
full management and organization, the
Democratic majority in the state was
increased to $4,000.
Tom Rhea has always been true to
the party and its nominees. He has
never bolted nor sulked when things
did not go his way in primaries or con-
ventions. The Democratic party In the
campaign this fall needs him upon the
ticket. No other man can give It
greater strength or do more to insure
its success in the November election.
He is man OF pleasing and attractive
personality, free from malice, kind.
considerable to all. a temperate and a
temperance man. never having touched
a drink OF alcoholic liquor in all his
life. and, all in all. he is a man worthy
in the highest degree of the confidence
and support Of all good citizens.
The Democrats of the state could not
find a better man to nominate for any
office than Tom Rhea, and. II the signs
indicate anything. he will be the NOM
nee for Auditor by handsome major
ity In the primary on August Z.

UNIQUE sermon
DR.. Bruner Shows How Habits
Will Prevent Entering
Gods Kingdom.
CHRISTIANITY Is FUTILE"
Pleads to Young People Asain.,
Liquor. Cigarettes. Smoking. and
Immoral Methods of Dress.

The first week OF the evangelistic
campaign being conducted In the Ma
tional Capital by DR.. Weston Bruner.
superintendent Of evangelism Of the
Home Mission Board of the Southern
Baptist Convention. came to . close
yesterday at the Fifth Baptist Church.
when more than 700 youths listened
with rapt attention as DIR. Bruner
preached what was probably the most
unique sermon ever delivered In
Washington.
Each of the young people present
had been asked to bring a nail to the
service, and the nails were heaped in
a big pile on one Of two tables IN
front of the pulpit.
DR.. Bruner took as his theme the
saving power of Christianity and used
the nails to present a practical illus
tration of the impossibility Of enter
ing the Kingdom of God without FIRST
forsaking the temptations Of the
rid.
The table on which the nails were
heaped was used to represent the
Kingdom OF Sin," while the other ia
BILE was designated as the Kingdom
of God" Taking a magnet, which was
used to represent Christianity, DR..
Bruner lifted the nails. one by one,
from tho table designated the King
dom of Sin" to the table designated
the Kingdom of God"
Four nails refused to answer to the
call of the magnet and upon investi-
CATION II was discovered that they
were held down by articles to which
they were attached. To one nail was
fastened a bottle. to represent strong
drink; to another was attached q Gig
arctic, to represent the smoking habit;
to yet another was attached a doll
dressed. to represent the
immodest and suggestive dress of the
present day: while the other nail was
fastened to a playing card. represent
ing gambling.
DR.. Bruner showed how these things
held one back from attaining the
Kingdom OF God" and how, when
they were shaken OF. the kingdom
was at hand. Christianity cannot
save, he said, when one is carrying
the loadstones of strong drink. i'm
modest dress. smoking habits. and
gambling.
