KENTUCKY
CROP REPORT
AS FOR FOR NOV |, 1917.
Issued by the State Departmental Ag.
riculture, Frankfort, Kentucky.

Issued by the State DEPARTMENT. of Ag-
riculture, Frankfort, Kentucky.
A summary Of the final estimates
on production this year and prelimina.
ry estimates on acreage for next year
on important products are given be-
low:
Wheat sowing has been delayed on
account Of the late maturing corn and
scarcity Of labor. Some localities re-
port 20 per cent. of wheat not YET
sown. That sown early has not
sprouted well. and condition of same
is given at SO per cent; while the
acreage as state average is given at
1923 per cent, which shows an in
crease over the area sown last year
Of 1863 per cent. The acreage of rye
is given at IS per cent, which is
an increase over last years estimate;
the condition Of same is SO per cent.
Barley acreage is SIS per cent. and
condition is SO per cent.
The estimate on Burley tobacco
shows yield of S91 lbs. per acre as
compared with 857 lbs. in 1916; and
dark tobacco's yield is estimated at
$40 lbs. per acre as compared with
1927 lbs. in 1916.
Corn is late in maturing. Much of
it is reported damaged by early frost.
The estimate on yield of same is 80
bushels per acre, as compared with
% bushels yield in 1916.
1t is early to give the yield of hemp,
but the preliminary estimate is given
at 991 lbs. per acre, as compared
with 1894 lbs. last year. In some To-
calities it Is expected to break out
very light.
The acreage of the potato crop was
unusually large this year and the av-
erage yield per acre is given at SO
bushels; sweet potatoes at SO BUSH
els. 1t is reported that labor is so
scarce in many communities potato
digging is being done by women in
order that the farmers may get the
fall seeding done.
Cane has also been damaged by
frost.
All classas of live stock are in fairly
good condition, and the number on
hand as compared with an average
year shows as follows:
Horses SO per cent; condition shows
at "a per cent.
Cattle 80 per cent; condition shows
at SO per cent.
Hogs "a per cent; condition shows
at "a per cent.
Sheep Sc per cent; condition shows
at 95 per cent.
Pastures are short and show con-
dition of 81 per cent. More vegeta-
bles were raised this year than ever
were reported before.
Taken as a whole, the reports
would indicate that this years crops
have been good, with both increased
acreage and, in most instances, an in
creased yield. However, conditions for
fall sowings of small grains are unfa-
vorable. Prices for everything are
ranging high, but with ban increased
cost of production and scarcity of la
Dor, 1t becomes necessary for the
farmer to get an increased price for
his products in order to compensate
him for the money and effort expend-
ed.
Respectfully,
MAT S. COHEN,
Commissioner of Agriculture.

One Gives Up Lucrative
 Medical Practice-Other Owns Pharmacy.

New York, Aug. M--Dr. A. S. Bern field and Louis I. Cherey, the two members of exemption board No. 99 under sentence of two years in the federal penitentiary in Aalanta fol- lowing their pleas of guilty to accept ing bribes for gfanting exemptions to men liable under the draft law, will De allowed a week to wind up their business affairs before being taken to prison. Meanwhile the men will be confined in the Tombs. Chery will leave a prosperous drug business while Bernfeld has enjoyed a rather large medical practice. Both men lost their professional licenses by their pleas of guilty.
 When the trial of Kalman Gruher was resumed here today in the United States district court it was expected that the case would be completed and in the hands of the jury by noon. Gruher who was indicted with Bern field and Cherey, declined to enter a plea of guilty and elected to stand trial. He is accused of being the "go between for the two former members of the board.

High Prices on Book Paper Were Unwarranted
 Trade Commission Says

Washington, Aug. 21-The advance in prices of book paper last year was excessive and unwarranted, the fed- eral trade commission reported today to the Senate. AS a. result of it's in vestigation the commission has order ed proceedings against certain prac- tices of manufacturers
 The price advances were not war ranted either by the increase in costs or by the changes in the conditions of supply and demand, the commission found. The advances were brought about in part by the activities of mem bers of the Manufacturers association and the secretary of the bureau Of statistics maintained by the manufac- turers.

WILSON TO NAME COAL
 ADMINISTRATOR
Bitu1ninous Coal Shipments to Northwest Given Right
 of Way.

Washington, Aug. 21-President Wilson's next move toward the es- tablishment of government control of the coal industry, following the ap- pointment of Judge Robert s. Lov- cit, chairman of the Union Pacific railroad, as director of priority of transportation. is expected to be the selection within a day or so of a coal administrator.
 There was no intimation to be had today concerning the identity of the man that the president will name to control coal production and distribu- ton and exercise the price fixing powers given in the food bill. It Is not believed that a member of the federal trade commission or Judge Lovett will be appointed.
 Judge Lovett's first official act was to direct railroad and steamship lines to give bituminous coal ship rnents to the northwest precedence over all other freight transportation

Wars Expense To Be
 Paid by Moneyed Men
tcontinued from Page 1.1

(Cou1nueo rom Page l.) tossing into the furnace of the Euro- pean war were all we had to consider, the question would not be so serious. But if this war should last another year or two years, think what it will mean to the financial resources of this country. It is not improbable that the entire income of all the peo- pie of the country, estimated at $38,- 900, 100000, will not equal the money cost of the, second year of this war"
 By keeping down taxes and increas- ing bonds, Senator LaF Toilette said, the masses are being "mortgaged to the money lenders"
 In conclusion MT. LaFol1ette said:
 Always remember that the. high prices already on us have taxed the common people of this country for the support of this war to a much greater extent than the wealthy class would be taxed if every dollar of in come of the members of that class were taken by taxation. When bread lines : shall be familiar sight in every city of this land, as they are bound to be if the present prices of the simple necessaries of life are maintained during the coming winter. when cold and hunger are daily visi- tors in many thousands of homes which have known only comfort heretofore, a condition certain to exist during the coming winter months un- less relief from present prices can be found, it will be small satisfaction to the members of this congress to realize that they have contributed to the want and suffering of the mass of people by refusing to place even an approximately fair portion of the financial burden of this war on the rich"

Exemption Claimants Lose Pleas Passed on

(Continued From Page 1.) suit is that these bonds will soon find their way wholly into the hands of the wealthy. But this is not all. Pay ing for a war mainly by selling bonds inevitably forces imitation. Imitation raises prices. greatly increasing the cost of living to the masses
 We are counselled by the highest economic authority. we are admonish- ed by all history, we are commanded by every consideration of justice to the American boys who are marked for slaughter, to the American homes already in the shadow of death, to declare here and now by our votes on his record that the wealth of this country will be taken as mercilessly through the power of taxation as men are taken by force of the draft.

 Local boards have received a ruling from the Provost Marshal General which settles the questions as to ex- emptions for justices of the peace, grand jurors, members of boards of education and like popularly elected officials whose successors can be chosen only by popular election. The rule directs that none be exempt, un- less in a particular locality the num- Der of such officials drafted should be such as to embarass such localities by all being taken. Then the boards must strike the medium and de- termine the more important of the whole number and certify the rest for service.
 At district board headquarters at the county courthouse today, none of the board members would discuss Police Commissioner Stanleys new style of exemption claim for the po- lice. It was pointed out that regula- ton prescribe the manner in which all claims are to be handled and, that these regulations would be carried out, on the lines laid down therein and that the board could only give consideration to particular cases when the Promost Marshal General had advised of new rulings. Unless, therefore, the Provost Marshal Gen. eral should make a new decision rela- tive to the local police. they will be certified.

BROWN DEFENDS BOARD OF HEALTH ATTITUDE
 ON GARBAGE MATTER

Health Officer w. H. Brown stated today that when the Black Rock Civic association or anyone else makes formal and specific complaint about any matter under the Jurisdiction of his department. such complaint would be Investigated and the complainant might be sure of satisfactory atten- tion. While stating that he did not believe garbage collection to be per- feet anywhere and admitted that some fault might be found with the local system, pr. Brown denied that there was any occasion for charges as broad as those reported to have been considered by the Black Rock Civic association.
