MITCHELL'S FINAL
REPORT.

The Maysville market closed on Fri
day, March "a, in a most satisfactory
manner to both buyer and seller, the
prices on all grades being fully as
high as at any time during the season
The market sold 17,412,2OO pounds
for $1,94S,543.19, at an average of
$11.2O Last years average was 1921,
this season showing an advance OF SO
per hundred.
The market for the entire year has
been better supported and held to
more uniform price day after day than
any year since 1t was opened, there be-
ing no radical raises or falls.
The great number of factory buyers
and brokers now located here makes it
so that if one drops out there is an
other to take his place. This fact
makes Maysville the most reliable
daily market of northern Kentucky or
southern Ohio.
AiN hOoo VI u III pOullun was
largely made up to the grower in the
advance in price, but fell very hard on
the warehousemen.
The extreme high price of fertilizer
ia bound to cut the Carolina crop.
Dairying is having its effect in east
ern Kentucky and southern Ohio and
the high price for hemp will cut the
central Kentucky crop. so it looks
good for the tobacco grower of Mason
and adjoining counties.
My advice to all is to grow all that
you can PROPERLY CARE FOR BUT
NOT ONE POUND MORE, for each
season now clearly demonstrates that
il is the careful handler that gets the
money. AS an illustration, one grower
on Friday, March "a. sold his crop at
AN average of $24.43.
Here is hoping for a 100000 sale
in Maysville next year and a good
crop. w. MITCHELL, Supervisor.

SUNDAYS RAIN
Amounted To Almost a Water Spout
In This City, Doing Some
Damage.

The weather man was on the job
all right for his predictions as to the
weather in this vicinity as far as the
rain was concerned.
Sunday afternoon about 430 a heavy
rain and hail storm struck this com
munity, coming from the southwest,
and for short time the rain came
down in torrents with a mixture of
hail and wind, turning the streets into
miniature creeks all over the city.
On Bridge street the water rushed
down to the hole under the G. & o.,
washing rock and sand onto the street
car tracks, and a car attempted to go
through it, but jumped the track. An
other car went to its assistance and
it. too, got off the track, compelling the
company to transfer around them until
they were replaced on the track.
The downspouts on the new addition
to the Central Garage on Market
street, became choked and the water
backing upon the almost fiat roof,
caved in, damaging two automobiles
slightly.
On West Second street a choked
sewer caused water to back up in the
residence of Mr. Pearl Blythe. the bar
Der, doing some damage.
A large barn on the farm of John
Brannon in the Lewisburg neighbor-
hood, was struck by lightning and
burned, together with its contents.
The loss is heavy.
Rain continued to fall at intervals
almost the entire night, the govern
ment gauge reporting a total rainfall
of 1.79 inches.
A large amount of damage was done
throughout the county by washing of
farm lands.

HUMANE SOCIETY MEETING.

Friday evening there was a called
meeting of the Mason County Humane
Society. The problems of the work
were discussed and it was decided
to try to get a trained and efficient
worker to come here and take entire
charge of the humane business. Some
one who can give his entire attention
to looking up the cases of neglect and
cruelty in the county and city. Such
a worker will have to be paid a sal
airy while here. The Humane Society
has eight-six names on its roll and
since so many are interested in this
good cause there need be no trouble
about raising the salary of a Humane
Officer The people of the county
should be as much interested as those
in the city, and branch societies should
be organized in every community.
