travelling over the hills and hOlOws of
southern Kentucky, enjoying old
mother nature in al her beauty and
splendor, interSperSed with the soft

few "reminiscences of the dim and
mystic past.
The general topic of conversation in
this neck of the woods is who will win,
Wilson or Hughes? From reading the
daily paper it seems that all is well,
for to the 18th of November, it appears
that the old Elephant and Moose will
be running side by side at break neck
speed, while the old donkey will be
snorting and painting in an effort to
keep in sight.

Crop Report.
October LIST, 1916.

OCTOBER lSt, 1916.
The crop report as of October lst
is rather difficult to summarize as it
is almost entirely preliminary esti-
mates on the results of this years
products aud the acreage for next.
The corn is not all gathered. The 81.
los are all not yet filled. Most of the
tobacco crop is housed, but not all of
1t. Not great deal of wheat has
been Sown, and while some progress
has been made this past month in the
seeding of wheat, rye and barley,
much of the fall seeding has been de-
layed. Especially is this so of wheat.
Many of the farmers hope by this late
sowing to avoid the ravages of the
Hessiin fly. Early Sown wheat is
more liable TO become infested with
this fly The price of seed wheat is
very high, aud this will likely cut the
final acreage of fall wheat sown.
The facts aScertained by the De-
partment at this time are as follows:
The preliminary estimate of wheat
Sown is 81 per cent, rye is 81 per cent,
and, while but little barley is raised
IN Kentucky, the estimate on that is
given at 50 per cent. The estimated
yield of corn per acre is given as a
State average of 1913 bushels. Hemp
yield is estimated at 1896 pounds per
acre.
The tobacco crop is good, and 90
per cent, of same is reported housed
ano moSt of it curing well. Some of
the late tobacco is not curing so well.
However, the crop is of unusual color,
texture and quality. 1t is estimated
that Burley Tobacco will yield 9I9
pounds per acre, and Dark Tobacco
will yield S5l pounds per acre as a
State average. This is an unusually |
high estimate and runs about rs and
II pounds per acre respectively heav-
Ter than last years report.
The Irish and sweet potato crop are
reported poor generally throughout
the State, the average yield of Irish
potato being given at 10 bushels per
acre and of sweet potato 10 bushels. /
Late garden conditions are poor. The
condition of live stock is good. The
reports of grasses in different sections
vary and taken as a whole are in good |
condition, Blue Grass being given at
81 per cent, clover Sc per cent, while
orchard grass shows at 81 per cent,
and alfalfa at So per cent. The third |
cutting of alfalfa was cut very short !
by the dry weather. In some local !
tiles it is reported the fourth cutting
will be ready N a few days. Much of |
the crimson clover was killed out by
the late drouth.
Now is the time for the falmer to
put in some cover crops if he has not
already done so. Rye, barley or win
ter vetch will prevent washing of the
land and retain the fertility also. Re-
ports show large increase in the
of farmers who are using
limestone and rock phosphate with
good results 1t is cheaper to raise
fertility than buy it.
Respectfully submitted,
Mat S. Cohen,
Commissioner Of Agriculture.

CONNELLA HELPS
NEVADA CONVICT
TO file patent
Three Year Termer May Be a
Rich Man if He Ever leaves
Prison Walls

J.rW Connella, deputy collector in
the internal revenue office and in
ventor of a magazine holder which
was described several days ago in
the Star-Bulletin, is helping a convict
in the state penitentiary at Carson
City, Nevada, by applying at the pat
ent office for patent to transmits
sion mechanism for automobiles. !.
Connella is a personal friend OF
Warden D. S. Dickerson. of the state
'penitentiary, and used to spend much
time with him on the big penitentiary
farm Nimrod S. Uric, the convict,
drove the warden's automobile, and
it was thus that Connella became ac-
quainted with him. =. RI. =.
Uric is life termer and has served
but three years of his sentence.
"One day." says Connella, I'VE were
talking about various types of auto
mobiles when the chauffeur happened
working on new type of automobile
transmission with the view to de-
creasing much useless weight. -. il
Warden Dickerson and l immedi.
ately became interested in his des-
cF1ption, and 1t was not long after this
that he brought us out neat little
model done in babbitt metal, which
worked perfectly" -:~.' Il ~ .

Whether the same mechanism will
work as we'll on an automobile is a
question, the revenue deputy says,

incidentally, says Connella,
'Dickerson is not only making invent
ors out of his convicts, he is also max
ing men of them" r.. 49,.
Warden Dickerson was formerly
governor of the state of Nevada.
The invention in question takes ad,
vantage of the varying diameter of a
cone to regulate the speed of the au-
transmission being effected

ject of the invention is to allow the
gear shift to be made not by the driy-

and 10 send combined petition to

arcfiy and also to Yuan asking him
TO ascend the throne.
Convention to Decide.
The council of state sent these
petitions to Yuan and asked him for
instructions. In a message to the
council, he declared that the opinion
of the country should be obtained.
On October 6, Yuan issued mandate
calling for an election of a national
convention to be made up of 1884
members and to be charged with the
duty Of deciding the question at is
sue,
"A Picking press correspondent re.
ported that out of a population of
1,250,000 in that city only e few more
than 1000 votes were cast at this cleo
ton This shows that only a few of
Yuan's 100000 officials in Picking yot-
ed for him. Assuming the proportion
of votes cast throughout China tno
official report has been made) to be
the same, then out of population of
400, 100000 Chinese only $4,000 per-
sons voted. In the first national cleo
ton that chose the parliament in 1913
over 100000 votes were counted.
Yuan arbitrarily reduced the number
of votes to $4,000 or about one-tenth
of one per cent of the population.
This minority election was held
only in the provincial and district
capital cities. Only persons designat-
ed by the local military and civil au-
thorities as qualified were admitted
to vote. Each province chose electors
who assembled in the provincial or.
state capital and elected delegates who
constituted the national convention.
Called On Days Notice.
Tson Hwa Sin Pao, Chinese news
paper at Shanghai, reports that the
election in Marking was called on one
days notice, and that only 26 dele
gates out of about 100 were present.
The meeting was held at the military
governors residence which was sur.
rounded by armed soldiers and the
police. The delegates came forward
one at time, and the election off,
GERS ordered them to write on their
ballots, favor monarchy and 4 pub
licly elect Yuan Shih-Kai as the great
emperor of the Chung Hwa empire.
In every province the election was
held in the same manner
The United States government will
soon be asked officially to recognize
this usurper Yuan and his empire.
The United States was the first
among the powers to recognize the
Chinese republic. Will it approve of
the acts Of this usurper and traitor
after it has refused recognition to
Huerta of Mexico? This is a question
for the American people to decide"
After the conclusion of the talk,
the members Of the home rule in Taxa.

President Wilson not to recognize
Yuan Shih-Kai as emperor.
