Thursday.
TOGO IN TWO COMPANIES

An exodus of negroes, in two bands,
one forty-fve, the other ninety strong,
leaving Hopllinsville for the summer
to take up jobs on railroad construc-
fion work in Rochester, N. Y. and
Palmer, Ind, took place at the L. an.
depot last night at $50
The men who are leaving claim
they are offered from 81 to 50 day
and transportation. The crowd that

of this city. They were at the train
Thursday night intending to leave,
but the transportation failed to come.
II arrived yesterday. They will work
in Palmer, near Chicago, on the Erie
railroad.
j. A. Burning, of New York, was
i'm Hopkinsville Friday and got up
men to go to Rochester to do con.
struction work on the lake there.
Other emigrations have already oc.
Cured. 1t has already been estimated
that over two hundred had left the
city, some going to the coal mines,
Others to the cities to do manual labor.
Part of the men will return in the fall
and others will stay permanently.
Yesterdays bands run the number
up to three hundred and thirty, APP

BIDDERS in
The CITY
To Seek Contracts On the
New County Roads Next
Tuesday.

The Christian County Road Com
mission will open bids next Tuesday,
July Is, for the construction of eighty
five miles of new and rebuilt pike in
this county. The roads to be inn
proved are the jacksonville, Fair
view, Lafayette, GAINESVILLE, Nashville
and Princeton, and on each the pike
is to be extended to the county line.
Most of these roads have already been
piked most of the distance, but this is
all to be worked over and made new,
and where there is now no pike new
pike outright is to be built. All the
work is to be done under state aid
and according to plans and specifica-
tons, approved by the state good
roads departments. This is the first
lot Of contracts to be offered to be
paid for out of the $500, 900 bond issue
voted in March and sold recently.
Other roads are now being surveyed
and as fast as the plans are approved
the contracts for these will also be let.
A number of prospective bidders
are already in the city and are going
over the roads to be built.

WYNN, 1912 E. o Street, Richmond, Va.
While Change of Life is a most crit
zeal period Of woman's existence, the
annoying symptoms which accompany
it may be controlled, and normal health
restored by the timely use Of Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
Such warning symptoms are sense
of suffocation, hot flashes, headaches,
backaches, dread of impending evil,
timidity, sounds in the ears, palpitation
of the heart, sparks before the eyes,
irregularities, constipation, variable ap-
petite, weakness and inquietude, and
dizziness.
For these abnormal conditions do not
fail to take Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege-
table Compound.

Two or three transplantings while
In plant beds are essential to secure
short. strong, stalky plants with q
compact, fibrous root system.
In transplanting we move q chunk
OF earth about four inches square with
each plant. We make rows three and
a half or four feet apart and space
the plants 16 to IS inches in the. row
Each plant Is confined to single
branch and trained to q stake. Strong
Irvine Is used to secure the plant to
the stake, one such support being
used Just below each cluster.
The string is first made secure to
! the stake, a single knot will usually
answer and then the stalk inclosed
a double knot being necessary in this
case. Ample allowance should be made
for subsequent growth of stalks.
A lateral will appear at each leaf
| joint and these must be removed at
once in order that the entire strength
Of the plant be directed into the
growing of the single stalk and the
development of the fruit cluster there
| on.
In our own experience we have
found that this method of culture has
decided advantage over other meth
DDS. First, a gain is made in securing
early maturity of fruits; second, the
fruit is larger and finer in quality.
While there are not so many indi-
vidual fruits as where permitted to
branch freely, there is a gain in size
and very decided gain in the number
of perfect specimens.
The fruit being held suspended, the
influence of the suns rays reaches
every portion of its surface, resulting
in higher and more perfect coloring

Furthermore, air and sunlight have

To secure the greatest benefit from
