Col. Josh Wilson, on the Crab Or

been buying up nice bunch of

good shape than he. From Maurice
M. Perkins he bought eight head at
II 1-2 cents a pound; from Mr.. New
man, a German farmer, Is head at
the same figure.

stantial farmers of the East End, was
in town on business Monday. Mr..

brother, w. L. King for SIS. He now
has % yearlings and two-year-olds

King is preparing to put 16 acres In
| corn this week.
James G.. Harrington, of the Parks
vile section, lost an aged jennet from
some unknown cause, and has very
fine young jennet that is not expect
ed to live. Mr.. Harrington, while
attempting to care for a stray rat
dog, thinking the owner would call
for it, suffered the lost of eight dol
lars worth of turkeys. The animal
that is usually true to its friend
killed two fine gobblers, which were
really worth more than the amount
mentioned.
Messrs. Banks Hudson and James
House have just completed breaking
their crop of hemp on the Gentry
farm. The crop contained 125 acres
and made total of little less than
10000 pounds. The entire crop
was sold to Hudson & Davis, local
hemp dealers, at IL cents pound.
Messrs. Hudson and House will plant
125 acres in hemp the coming sea-
son. The crop just sold brought fully
$4,000. Great enthusiasm has been
aroused in the hemp industry on ac-
| count of the high prices that are be-
ing received.-Danville Advocate.
Seed and feed prices are soaring
in the Mt. Sterling market, as the
following prices will show. Baled
timothy hay is selling at SIS and SIT

at $1.4O per bushel, and hemp seed
cannot be obtained for love or mo-
ney. One farmer was offered eight
and one-half cents per long hundred
for all the hemp he could grow in
the next two years, but could obtain
no seed with which to produce the
crop.

Ex-Sheriff w. S. Hens1ey consumated
big deal with G. w. Middleton by
which he sold his farm on Crummies
Creek to Mr.. Middleton for a eonsid-
Grafton of $4,000, and bought Mr..
Middleton's property at Ages, con-
sisting of lot, store building and
stock of goods; four lots and dwelling
house for $4,000. In an earlier deal,
Mr.. Hensley sold the Turner Bros,
200 acre tract of land on Crummies
goods located at mouth of Jones
Greek.
The stoppage of importations of
hemp fibre and the increased de-
mand for the staple are given by
big dealers as the causes for the pres
ent high price for both seed and FIBRE
Hemp is selling for $12 a hundred
in the big markets. At that price,
and in view of the prospects of an
other high market next year, farm
ers are demanding seed this spring
in greater quantities than ever. Seed
prices are high in sympathy with the
fibre market, but there is nothing like
a shortage of good seed, according
to local merchants. Twenty-Five dol
lars bushel is being asked for the
seed, which ordinarily sells for $11.
Reports from all over Central Ken
lucky indicate that more hemp than
ever will be planted, and in some
sections it is difficult to buy seed,
so near has the available supply in
that section been exhausted. Much
hemp is being planted in Garrard
according to reports from there,
three of the leading farmers expect
ing to grow 800, 200 and 100 acres,
respectively. Growers who farm on
smaller scale are greatly increasing
their acreage and indications point
to Lexington's regaining her former
place in the hemp market of the
world. One Garrard county grow
er has imported a quantity of seed
from North China and will try the
experiment of growing the Asiatic
product on Kentucky soil.

MISSES STRAUB
FINE MILLINERY

Stanford, KY, Apr. 3, 1916
Mr.. H. C. Carpenter:
The Maxwell '25' we purchased from YOU
in June, 1914, has given perfect satisfaction
1t has wonderful power on hills and picks up
quickly. 1t has been nearly 5000 miles and
is very economical, costing us considerably less
than cents per mile. Two of the original tires
are still running. We get about 20 miles to gallon
of gasoline and 400 miles to gallon of OIL The
only expense we've had for repairs was fan belt
~ cents, and rubber hose 90 cents. The carbon
has been removed from engine once
We consider our Maxwell good investment
in health and pleasure.
Very tru y,

EAST CENTER GRANGE
Successful Entertainment Given at
School Friday Night.

East Center Grange gave most
successful entertainment Friday even
ing, and they had a packed house. 1t
is hardly fair to draw any line of dis
tinction, for all who took part on the
program were just fine, but Ray Rob-
ertson, who took the part of Hiram"
was scream. From the way he
handled the part one might think he
had had some work in the line, for it
seemed just as easy for him as though
that were his life's work. East Cen
ter has a reputation for doing what
ever they undertake, up right, and
they lived up to that reputation last
evening, and added q few laurels. The
program as presented follows:

Piano Solo-Retha BalIingGr.

Violin SolO-Howard Thompson.
The play, ''ROsebrook Farm" was
a satire on scientific farming, and was
a good one as to morals and teachings.
Taking the basis that the farmer was
opposed to scientific farming, and
would have no one about who upheld
that principle. Finally hiring a man
to work for him whom he supposed
was thoroughbred farmer, and whom
he thought had never seen college.
After one of the most successful years
which he had ever had while on the
farm he discovered that his hired
man" was a college graduate, and
that he had been working scientific
farming all over his farm for over a
year. Those who took part in the
play were:
leila Hooyer-The hired girl.
Hassel Hedge-Mr. Rowe, the far.

Ray Hull-The farmers son.

ALL TO REGISTER THIS YEAR
Secretary of State Allen Advises Vot-
ers-Cosson Silent On the
Iowa Soldier

Des Moines, Oct. 16.-Secretary OF
State Allen today advised all voters
in Iowa to register for the presiden-
tial election November 7, regardless
of having registered at city election
this yeai. ~... .,
Attorney-General Cosson approved
this advice but did not give out his
long awaited statement as to wheth-
er the Iowa soldiers on the Mexican
border could vote under the absent
voters law.
Allen said II voters show they were
unavoidably out OF their home city on
registration days, Oct. 26-27-2S and
Nov. 4, they would be allowed to reg
lister on election day. This would
apply to Iowa soldiers should they re-
turn from the border in time for the
election.
There was no provision for absent
voters registering by mail. They
must register in person.
Both Cosson and Allen believe it
would be all right for unregistered
men to vote on Nov. providing they
had registered for city election. but
both said this right was not clear and
undisputed.

7 He 0. H. S. LIBRARY
A Number of New Books Have Re-
Gently Been Added.

The following is list of new books
which have recently been added to the
High School Library. The teachers
and pupils are particularly proud of
this set OF books because they were
purchased with money earned by the
teachers and pupils in the English
Department, and, consequently. did
not cost the taxpayers anything.

The English Department is not the
only department that has helped to
equip the school, as the Manual
Training boys have made some very
satisfactory contributions to the
Physics Laboratory this year. When
this Laboratory was moved from the
High School into the present location
over the Traction and Light office, it
was found necessary to add half
dozen Physics experiments tables to
the equipment. Prices were secured
on these tables, and. after little
investigation, 1t was decided to have
the boys make them in the shop at
the High School, where they are be-
ing completed at the present time at
much less than half the cost charged
by any OF the manufacturing con-
Germs. This is not only a saving,
but 1t keeps the money that We
spend right here in Oskaloosa. a
practice followed whenever possible
in the public schools.
