and grain and advises that the best
results may be obtained from giving
attention to the things with which
the agriculturists of the section are
familiar. Hogs, farm poultry and
cows are suggested as money bring
ers. The market for these is always
good. Small increases in the numb
er of sows, pigs and shoats raised on
the different farms in the district
will add hundreds of thousands OF
dollars to the region, the report says,
A small added income may result
from the production of poultry, gard
en- vegetables, such as Irish and
sweet potatoes, beans and sorgum.
The exchange to the raising OF YER
satile crops should be able to secure
for the farmers in the aggregate an
income sufficient to go long way
toward piecing out the reduced in
come resulting from the curtailment
of the tobacco acreage.

rich BROKER TRIES
TO ADOPT NEGRESS
TENNESSEE MAN CLAIMS DESIRE
TO RIGHT WRONG BY
ADOPTION.

Evansville, Ind.,-Clifford Yarbo-
rough, 4S years old, a white man
and a wealthy grain broker of Pull
aski, Tenn, made application in Cir
cult Court here recently for per-
mission to adopt Eugenia Murray, a
pretty 17-year-old mulatto girl.
Marlborough admitted he was the
father of the girl and explained his
unusual action by saying he "felt
that he should rectify wrong"
Marlborough was accompanied to
court by an attorney, who presented
the written consent of the girls
mother, Alice Murray, to the adop-
tion.
1.-The girls mother is a negress,
w. c. Vawter, Yarborough's attorney
announced. Judge Givens was as
founded. In answer to a question
from his attorney, Marlborough ad-
mitted the girl is his child.
81 feel that I should rectify a
wrong" said Marlborough. II have
plenty of money to take care of the
child. I brought $1,000 to Evansville
with me.
Marlborough said he wanted to give
the girl his name. He admitted he
was married, but said he and his
wife were living apart and that he
had not consulted her about the
adoption proceedings.
Judge Givens said he could not
grant the petition. If he legitimized
the daughter, he would be taking a
step which would in practice have the
same results as permitting the inter-
marriage of races. He said he could
not consent to miscegenation.
The mulatto girl was in the court
room. She could easily pass as a
white girl and is strikingly beautiful.
She is said to be talented in music.
She and, her mother came here
from Pulaski, February z. 1t is
said they formerly lived on Yarbor-
ough's plantation.

BIRD LAW
CONTINUES in FORCE

Washington, ID. ca misleading
statement has recently become cur
rent in newspapers of the Mississippi
Valley and elsewhere, to the effect
that the Department of Agriculture
has suspended the enforcement Of
the Federal regulations under the
Migratory Bird Law and by this
means has enabled sportsmen, under
State laws, to shoot wild fowl the
coming spring.
Under the Federal regulations as
they now stand, the season on all
migratory wild fowl is closed until
next autumn throughout the United
States. Federal inspectors and ward
ems are required, and others interest
ed in the protection of wild fowl are
requested, to report to the Depart
ment of Agriculture all cases Of
violations of the regulations, in
order that proper action may be
taken.
The Department of Agriculture
has no power to suspend the law or
to pardon violations of the regula-
tions. Doubtless the erroneous i'm
preston, on which the newspaper
statements are based, has grown out
of the tendency of litigation involv-
ing the constitutionality of the Act
of Congress approved March 4, 1913,
under which the regulations were
promulgated. The lower Federal
courts disagreed as to the validity of
the statute and the issue was carried
to the Supreme Court of the United
States. The case was argued in the
Supreme Court in October, 1915, but
has not been decided. Following the
lower court decisions, Congress ap-
propriated money for the purpose of
continuing the enforcement of the
law. The Department of Agriculture
is bound to report to the Department
of Justice violations of the regula-
tions If the Supreme Court should
declare the law constitutional. All
persons should, therefore, be warn
ed of the danger they incur from
failure to abide by the regulations.

DRILLS GAS WELL IN
MAIN STREET OF TOWN

Greensburg, Ind, Feb. 27.-A gas
well that is pronounced a real gush-
er has been drilled by George s. Lit
tell, on Main street in this city. II
is $50 feet deep, 40 feet in Trenton
rock, and 80 quarts of nitroglycerine
were used to shoot the we'll and start
the flow of gas. The supply of nat
ural gas from the old wells has been
very weak the past winter, barely
enough for cooking purposes.

What Farm Agents Are Doing For
Kentucky.
In July, 1912, the College of Agri-
culture in cooperation with the
United States Department of Agri-
culture, inaugurated an effort to
place a farm adviser or county
agent" in every county of the State
that would bear half the expense Of
such an undertaking.
From the very outset the move
ment was popular, the agents prov
ing their usefulness by teaching bet
ter tillage methods more intelligent
use of fertilizers, use of green ma
nure crops, crop rotation, pruning
and spraying Of fruit, better breeding
feeding, and management of live
stock, vaccinating hogs against
cholera and a long list of other
things that help farmers.
There are now about forty coun-
ties that have these county agents.
The following extracts are taken
from letters received during the
past few weeks from counties in
which these agents have been at
work.
Todd county-"One year ago there
were less than one hundred acres of
crimson clover grown in Todd coun-
ty but this year there are four hun
dred farmers who have planted two
thousand acres" ;
Crittenden county-"The yield of
corn in this county is one of the
largest ever made. One corn club
boy reports yield of 81 bushels per
acre while the father made 60 BUSH
els per acre in the same field"
Simpson county-"In a window of
one of the grocery stores in Franklin
there was recently an exhibit of
Winesap apples accompanying which
was a card stating that the quality
of those apples was due to the use of
spraying. The apples were sprayed
three times in an orchard that was
thirteen years old and which had
never grown a crop of apples worth
picking. This year the owner gath
cred over 800 bushels and sold them
as fast as he could deliver them.
Ohio county-"Our fertilizer
season is over and we find that we
handled 100 tons comparatively by
which the farmers were saved $500,
and thru the influence of the county
agent at least 100 tons were sold
thru the fertilizer agents at saving
to the farmers of $500 or more"
Hardin county-"There is good in
terest in soil Improvement in this
county; some of the farmers are u.s.
ing as much as 400 tons of ground
limestone. The farmers at Vine
Grove have made cooperative
order for 100 tons of raw rock phos-
phates." ,1gEesAsssSss
Mason county-"Eight members
of the Farmers Club at Minerva are
purchasing a rock pulverizer.
Trigg county-"One of the Corn
Club boys in this county made 81
bushels of corn on his acre, which
was more, according to the statement
of his father, than was made on 8
acres adjoining"
Ballard county-"There is consid-
cradle interest among the stock
raisers toward standardizing the
breed Of beef cattle in this county.
All are selecting Herefords bulls to
head their herds. ds."-Lexington Lead
