Seeks Cows Geneaoloey.

In this community with fields
and barns full of alfalfa, Grim
son clover, fodder and such
things to tempt the appetite and
delight the soul of cow, it is
somewhat discouraging to find
one in the community so de-
generate as to show fondness
for old newspapers, rubber coats
and things" which flourish on
the clotheslines. And yet Alex
Barber vouches for the fact that
he owns a cow who possesses
this depraved taste. He says
that she has an especial fond
ness for mail-order catalogues
and will eat dirt on occasion.
This dissipation does not seem
to affect The supply and quality
of milk which she gives but it is
Mr.. Barber's intention to trace
her pedigree in an effort to
ascertain if there can possibly be
strain of billy goat in her blood.

From the appearance Of the body
it was the opinion of those who
visited the scene that the man
either fell from or was struck by
a passing train sometime during
Saturday night. Nothing was
found on the body by which it
could be identified, and the burial
was made at d point near where
the man met his death.

Politicians talk many things in the
ears of voters. There is, however,
but one question of real signifi-
cance. Of over-reaching Importance:
namely. the Liquor Traffic.
In the first place. IL involves a
drain Of something over fifty mil
lions OF dollars upon the common
wealth. This vast sum is worse
than wasted in each twelve months,
So far as the interests of the spend
or and his home are concerned,
money spent for liquor had better
be thrown into the river.
The Liquor Traffic is spoken Of In
some quarters as an industry" II
is a financial burden: an incubus
on the economic life OF the State
and Nation. Every dollar spent for
intoxicants Is that much taken out
Of the legitimate channels OF trade
The same dollar cannot buy shoes
and booae: IL cannot support the
saloon keeper and the drinkers
family. No excuse can be offered
for the great drain suffered by oir
people thru this wastaful traffic
Out Of self-respect and self-pre-
servation. Kentucky must Danish
not only the saloons, but the brew
cries and distilleries. and the whole
organized Liquor Traffic.
The cotton production in the U.
s. last year brought six hundred
millions Of dollars. whereas our
liquor bill was more than two bill
lions, showing a waste OF over three
times the value Of the cotton. There
was expended in this nation last
year somewhat more than seven
hundred millions for educational
purposes, this being only little

A Word to Kentucky Voters

over one-third the sum expended
on intoxicants. In the whole United
States there is invested in school
property slightly over one billion,
three hundred millions OF dollars.
This would pay the Liquor bill OF
the Nation for only eight months.
The entire cultivated land OF our
Nation is about seven hundred and
eighty-seven million acres. II would
take approximately s2.7O cents per
acre rental on this entire farming
area To settle the whiskey bill.
This looks like financial insanity
In the face of all this drain upon
the Nations and Commonwealth's s
resources. whiskey politicians hsvs
the audacity 10 pretend that Ken
tucky needs its distilleries and sa-
looms. They tell us that Prohibi-
ton would bankrupt us, and state as
their chief argument that the liquor
interests pay revenue of seven
hundred thousand dollars. What
is this in the face Of an annual out
lay in Kentucky Of $SO,O000O0 for
intoxicants? Reduce IL 10 compre-
hensible figures: Tntoxicants cost
Kentuckians fifty dollars and the
State gets in revenue seventy cents.
There is your revenue argument.
This is not reason; il is not logic
il is fraud or insanity-WHICH9
Not only does the Liquor Traffic
drain the resources Of the State and
Nation. but il causes from eight Ia
