THE MARKET
FOR HAY
LOOKING BETTER

Follwing is the weekly report of the
hay market on the Pacific coast, fur
nished by the Pitt warehouse:
The arrivals of hay for the week
have been 500 tons. The markets
in San Francisco and Oakland have
been quite steady recently as there has
been little Improvement in the de
mand for hay used for local purposes,
and, therefore, little bit stronger sit
uation has been thereby developed
Consumers are now coming into the
market and inquiring for their hay
for winter purposes and better feel
ing generally is shown.
Fancy offerings are readily placed
and No. | consignments have also
moved off satisfactorily. Low type
hay has been difficult to place as con-
sumers show decided preference for
good hay at fair prices and are not
attracted to the poorest types even at
the low prices prevailing.
Much hay is still being absorbe by
the export trade and our general mar
kets have been strengthened all along
the line by the large amounts that
have been shipped out of the State for
this purpose.
The old hay has been practically
cleaned up. A large proportion OF
the hay crop of good grade has al
ready been sold by the farmers. In
those sections where there was still
some unsold, STEADY buying has been
going on during the week and lots
that now remain in the farmers hands
are generally being held at higher val
uation Some round lots of poor hay
have been reported sold this week
Much of it was arranged to be placed
70 rinterior uses and will not come
to San Francisco or burden this
market.
Alfalfa arrivals have been moderate
ard these have consisted mainly OF
hay coming in from the Sacramento

The Kentucky Children's Home
Society has at present in its Receiv-
ing Home 2O8 children. This is an
unprecented number for this season
of the year, but owing to the con-
ditions created by the world wide
war, the Society is over crowded
with children.
We find it necessary to appeal
once more to the citizens of Ken
lucky and ask them to take these
children into their homes. We have
IL babies under the age Of two, 10S
boys and girls under the age of
seven, 70 of which are between the
age of two and five. The rest are
older boys and girls between the
ages of z and IA.
1t would not only be an act of
charity on the part of our citizens
to open their hearts and their homes
to these little children, but in nine
cases out of ten, these children will
prove a great advantage and salts
faction to the families who take
them. We do not believe that there
are any finer looking children in the
State than we have on hand at the
present time.
The conditions in the work are
serious; if we do not place these
children promptly, we will be COM
PEELED to ask the Judge not to send
us any more children until we can
place large number in homes. We
do not want to do this, as we want
the institution open at all times to
the call of the destitute child.
Will you not think Of the need Of
each child for a mother and father,
and If possible, send us a letter, tell
ing us that you win take one Of
these little children into your homea

LET THE LAW BE ENFORCED

Evidently the good people of Paris
have determined that the law must
be enforced.
Whenever a city or a county "goes
dry" there is always an element of
the citizenry which becomes defiant
and proceeds at once to violate the
law and outrage the public conscious
by open and notorious disregard
for the will of the majority.
This has become such a habit in
Kentucky that in most communities
it is not only expected but permitted
to go on uninterrupted for years at
time, winked at by people and by
officers of the law and suffered as a
condition inevitable and incurable.
That the people of some of the
counties in the Blue Grass are be-
ginning to demand enforcement of
the laws against the illicit sale Of
liquor and against vicious forms Of
gambling is extremely gratifying.
We may build Dixie Highways,
and seek improved methods Of agri-
culture, and take steps to conform to
the progressive measures in all Of
the departments of life which have
found favor in enlightened oommun-
tiles elsewhere, but until we realize
that the first great step toward civic
and commercial greatness is respect
for the law of the land, no sub
stantial advance will be made in any
upward direction.
1t used to be charged that the rich
and the poor were not equal before
the law, but of late years this has
been found to be untrue.
1t is still apparent, however, that
in some section of the country the
laws do not apply with equal force
to ALL classes, and remarkable as
it may seem, the one class of all
others which seems to be immune is
a class which is the boldest and the
most persistent in its misdoing.
In many Kentucky towns there is
vicious element-men without ap-
parent means Of support, we'll dress-
ed, leisurely, mostly gamblers, or
worse-who prey upon the unsus-
pecting and the gulible and who
seem to enjoy special favor with
some Of the officials whose sworn
duty it is to see that the municipal
laws are enforced.

STAY ON THE FARM

If we want the right kind of
lasting prosperity in this country we
must get lot of people away from
the centers of population and onto
the farms, where opportunity
awaits them. This business of rush
ing off to the great cities and depop-
ulating the farms is doing more to
retard prosperity than all other
causes combined. Any man of COM
mon sense and a reasonable degree
Of energy can make a mighty fine
living on the farm and be reasonably
independent wh;ic SO doing, while
fully one-half Of the population to-
day is underfed because they are
stagnating in cities where there are
ten applicants for every job.
Strikes, lockouts and other labor
wars do not greatly affect the man
ON the farm, for crops grow on just
the same and appetites do not de-
crease. The real greatness of this
country will come when the land is
more fully under cultivation and
worked to better advantage on
scientific lines.

WHY WE ARE GREAT

America is a great country, and
much Of that greatness is due TO
the ability and fearlessness of the
people in thinking and acting for
themselves.
We elect our chief officers for two
to four years, and if they don't suit
us we kick them out at the end of
their terms.
We have habit Of frankly and
mistakenly telling our public SER
wants what we expect of them, and
we unblushingly give them to un-
derstand that if they do not make
good we will have no further use
for them.
Nearly everybody works in this
country, and drones are the isolated
exceptions.
We have no kings or emperors, or
counts, for in this country every
man is king in his own right, with
more brains than half the crowned
heads of Europe.
Yes, America is a great country,
and it will always be great so long
as we reverence brain and Drawn
instead Of lordlings and furnished
crowns.

4 BUDGET or puNs

PIaya on Words.

Plays or Words.
Although puns from the begin
ming Of time have been in bad odor
among the elite of mirth makers,
some Of the cleverest repartee, new
ertheless, has been in the form Of
puns.
Here are two puns made by chill
dren with a quickness quite remark
able. A small boy, who had sister
engaged to Mr.. Tatum, wished
one evening to ask service of her.
'Its no use, though" he said; "shc
just spends all her time tete-a-Ta-
tum."
He was no quicker than girl Of
the same age, a sister of the late
Smith Romans. He, as lad home
from boar ling school, offended her
taste in some small way, and she
demonstrated. "They all do it in
school," he answered, "and when
you're in Rome you must do as the
Romans do" eyes," she answered
like a flash, "but when you're at
home you must do as the Romans
do"
As quick was the man who was
invited to take dip into the ocean
because the water was as "fne as
silk" and replied, ''You can't make
silk purse out of souse here"
Still another was man Of New
Jersey, who was trying to take a
sleigh ride through melting snow
that was chiefly red Jersey mud,
and murmured sadly, cat last l un-
derstand Emerson's cryptic line,
when the red SLAYER thinks he
Stays"
A trife less spontaneous was the
man who said that the modern Ital-
ian version of the old Latin tempus
fugit should read 'The da(y)goes."
But there was no generalization
in the woman who, when she was
asked how she liked the New York
public library, answered at once,
"You must read between the lines"
Qions).
Some men like Horne Tooke will
joke at the point of death. A man
so ill that his doctor kept him fat
on his back and allowed him only
the nourishment that could be tax
en- through glass tube, kept his
humor. 81 might be called victim
of tubercular consumption" he
whispered to his nurse. He got
well.
No recitation Of wit in pun form
could be complete without the two
that are world known-one by an
Englishman who promised pun on
any subject offered him. He was
given the Latin gerund, and i'm
msdiately wrote:
When Dido found
That Aeneas didn't come.
She wept in silence
And was Di do dunn
Apt as is this verse, the second is
quite as good. 1t was, I think, a
woman who was given Henry Ward
Beecher as a subject for pun. Her
poem read:

Called the hen wonderful creature
The hen, upon that.

And thus did the hen reward Beechers

The origin of the people known
Is gypsies remains largely n mys-

Arabia have in turn been pointed
out as their original country, but
there is but little definite knowl-

from the Danube region spread all

horseshoss.

Horseshoes are of uncertain date
and have caused some discussion
among military historians. Nailed
shoes we're not known by the Greeks,
for Xenophon gives minute instruc-
tons for hardening the hoof. Nor
did the Romans use them. Nero
had mules shod with plate OF sill
yer fastened by crossed thongs to
the hoof. Poppaea, his later wife,
had her mules shod with solid
gold. The earliest positive evidence
Of nailed shoes is furnished by the
skeleton of horse found in the
tomb Of Childeric /. (458-81) at
Tourney in 1858.
