platform Transformation Of the pro-

done this in a way that has brought
about raise in the price of everything

With the November Term of the G ar
rard Circuit Court not a month of
there are only ten appearance suits or
the civil docket. Out of so many trans,
actions incidental to the business of ar
active community like Garrard county
to have only ten law suits would indi.
cate an unusually healthy financial con.
dltion as well as high sense of bust.
ness obligation among the people. But
the astonishing thing about the ten
suits is that eight are for divorce and
seven out of the eight the plaintiff is
the wife seeking dissolution of the
marriage contract and asking for ALI
mony. This is quite a striking evidence
that while general business contracts
are being satisfactorily carried out be-
tween the contracting public the
marriage contract is a subject of grow
ing litigation. OF course the relative
number of divorce suits are greater in
this instance than usual but an in
0PSNbNh VI thc NOui 10 uOChtt mere anu
elsewhere will show a constantly in
crease ratio in favor Of divorce suits.
The divorce is a menace to society,
and public sentiment should not permit
the marriage contract to be treated
lightly. Dissolution of the marriage
bonds should not be Dissolved for light
and trivial matters. Separation be-
tween husband and wife should not be
countenanced by the courts save for
good and sufficient legal reasons and
public sentiment should hold to a strict
maintenance Of this rule.
Formerly neither the husband nor
wife could testify IN actions of divorce,
but in 1912 the Legislature of this state
made what appeared at that time to be
very just amendment to the law Of
evidence allowing both the husband and
wife to give their respective sides of
the nuptial grievance in court which
We observe has been an encouragement
to divorce suits. The courts can dis
courage divorces and the many and
growing applications. by being rigid in
the requirement Of proof. The increase
in divorce suits is matter Of public
concern.

alton. Differing widely from the usual
practice this show to be held at Lex
ington is for tobacco alone, and the
amount of money to be distributed in
prizes makes its success assured.
Aside from this it has the backing of
the Kentucky Agricultural Experiment
Station. the Lexington Board of Com
merce, the Lexington Rotary Club, the
Lexington Tobacco Board of Trade and
the prominent men of the Blue Grass
section.
The show is for bona fide produces
only, and none other will be allowed to
complete. and all samples must be of
the 1916 crop. In addition to the ex-
hlblts of fine tobacco it is planned to
make this a gigantic three days con-
vention of tobacco growers to discuss
Improved methods of producing, curing
and marketing the crop. Men of
national prominence in the various
branches have been invited to attend
this gathering and lead the discussions.
Numerous features Of entertainment
have been planned, and it is the desire
of the promoters to give the producer
an opportunity to see part at least Of
the process through which the tobacco
has to go, before becoming the finished
product.
In order that all may be on an equal
footing and to avoid too great CONNIE
tition the Burley belt has been divided
into eight districts as follows: District
No. !, Fayette county; No. 2. Woodford,
Franklin and Anderson counties; No 3,
Jessamine, Boyle and Mercer counties;
No. 4, Madison, Garrsrd and Lincoln
counties; No. 5, Clark, Montgomery
and Bath counties; No 6, Bourbon,
and Harrison counties; No. 7.
Scott, Owen and Grant counties; No. s. |
the remaining counties of the Burley
belt.
Samples for display shall be com.
posed of tweve hands each of lug, trash,
bright leaf and red leaf. Awards are
to be made on the four grades as
whole. A first prize of S25 90, second
Of $1,000, third of $40 90 and fourth of
IS. 90 will make total of thirty-two
prizes. In addition three grand prizes
Of 500, $50 and S25 will be contested
for by the eight divisional winners.
For the best twelve hands of
cigarette wrapper, all of the district
prizes Of $50. 1886 and SIS are
offered. For the best three stalks Of
Burley tobacco grown anywhere in the
district $50. S35 and SIS will be given.
All samples will remain the property
Of the exhibitor to be disposed of as
he may see fit at the close Of the ex-
hibition except the prize winning sam
pies. which will become the property of
