this city stone image that is quite a
curiosity and probably of historic val
ue. Mr.. Littlepage found this curio
at the edge of cave on a high eleva-
ton in north Christian county, KY,
while investigating some prospective
oil land belonging to him. The cave
is located in wild and broken section
of land lying in north Christian and is
uncultivated and but thinly inhabited.
The image is rudely carved out OF a
tough, FERROUS sandstone; it is about
six inches in height and is well pre-
preserved except for a slight injury
on one side Of its head and slight
! weathering of one arm. The figure
is in sitting position with its legs
doubled under its body and arms ex.
tended in front with hands resting on
its knees. The eyes are cut diamond
shape and the mouth and nose are cut
sharp in the full face which resembles
n general contour the faces seen in
Egyptian carvings. The ears are fiat
against the head which is supported
on a short, thick neck. On the back
of the head is carved a double rectan-
gular figure that looks like an attempt
to show an open back, probably indi-
eating the head as the seat of knowl-
edge and wisdom.
The image is evidently a relic Of an
idolworshiping people and ante d
any old Indian relic found in various
Indian mounds in Western Kentucky.

THE KENTUCKY
PURE SEED LAW
Goes Into Effect Sept. %,
1916. Means Much to Seed
Industry.

The new pure seed law, enacted at
the last session of the General Assem-
bly, becomes operative this month.
The interests of both the farmer
and the scotsman are comprehended
by the new law. Its intention is to
afford The farmer ample protection
against contaminated and at the same
time to protect those parties who are
engaged in the production and mar
keting of high gaade farm seeds.
Under the provisions of the new law
seedsmen are permitted to test their
own seeds and to use the results of
these tests upon their tags. But all
tests must be made according to the
rules and regulations adopted and
employed by the Association of OFF,
al Seed Analysis.
Our Kentucky farmers and seeds
men may submit samples to the En-
pertinent Station for testing, which
will be done free.
Copies of the new law have been
received here and dealers are getting
ready to conform to its requirements,
which are very exacting and trouble

Alarm Clock Is Vicious Mechanical Piece

~HE alarm clock is a vicious piece

This is another letter about the

This isn't the first second or third
time they have refused TO let the

In my estimation they are cutting thei=
noses off TO spite their face (as the
saying isl for they are/ certainly
showing themselves up TO the FL Paso
people
This dog in the manger attitude
they have adopted toward the army
bands is not going to Increase the
union bands popularity.
After refusing 10 play and refusing
10 let the army bands play in the Pre-
paredness parade. IL was funny to read
how quick they said they would play
too, after Gen Bell. ignoring their re-
fusal, said his bands would play.
We certainly owe the army bands
vote OF thanks and appreciation for
the pleasure they have given us in the
past and their willingness TO continue
doing so II that union band would not
try TO boss everything.
