BUY AT HOME.

In recent years the people have
fallen into a custom of waiting until
cold or hot weather to buy their new
clothing and outfits. 1t is not often
that suits are bought many weeks
before actually needed. This being
the case, and the cold weather late in
arriving. business with the mer-
chants was. for a few weeks a little
dull. However, for the past two
weeks there has been a wonderful
picking up and Paris stores are all
crowded.
The people of Central Kentucky
have long since learned that they can
do as we'll or better shopping in Paris
than in Lexington, Louisville or Gin
cinnati, consequently they come here
and get what they want and at re-
markedly low prices. The local mer-
chants are well pleased with business
SO far this season. They have i'm
mense stocks to select from.

GOVERNOR AND ADJUTANT NOT
ON DRAFT BOARD.

In authorizing the Governor and
the Adjutant General to reopen draft
cases on application, Provost General
Growder in an order recently issued,
stated there was no intention to
make the Governor and the Adjutant
General supplemental board of re-
view. The order permitting theAd-
jutant General and the Governor to
reopen cases has caused any number
of applications to be filed with them.
Many of these cases are instances
where men have been accepted and
have no desire to serve. The Gov
ernor and the Adjutant General are
supposed to open such cases where
errors have been made in the con-
struction of the law by exemption
boards or through the ignorance OF
the registrant by which men have
been accepted who should have been
discharged from service.

IS GERMANY STARVING?

The real food situation in Ger
many is the important puzzle of the
war. The United States Food Ad-
ministration has gotten hold of some
figures on the standard German ra-
ton for non-combatants, which seem
to indicate that the Teutons are in
desperate straits. Figured in cal
cries, the food value of this ration
is only 10000. This is not sufficient
nourishment to keep a man of 40
pounds from losing weight steadily,
even if he does nothing but lie on
his back for twenty-four hours a day.
If he has work to do, he will eat up
his fat. and then his muscular tissue,
so much the faster. If the figures
received by the Food Administration
are correct and are not supplemented
by other rations not mentioned, the
civilian population of Germany must
inevitably be weakening fast.

Madison Senator Robert M. La
Toilette has filed a 100000 libel suit
III the Dane county circuit court
against o. ID. Brandenburg, editor, and
the Democrat Printing company of
Madison. The action is filed by his at
torneys, Crownhart and Wiley and Gil
bert r. Roe of New York City as coun-

Eighteen specific counts of libel are
named in the complaint. The articles
referred to charge Senator La Toilette
with treason, sedition, disloyalty and
official misconduct. The complaint

lie speeches have been misquoted in
the articles which are not libelous

ton. La Follette's st. Paul speech
figures in the libel action as does the
speech Of Charles Edward Russell.

false and cites it as one of the causes
of action

HUNTERS GETTING
READY FOR DEER
SEASON FOR WISCONSIN WILL
OPEN NOVEMBER Fl AND
CLOSE NOVEMBER 80.
ONE BUCK LAW Is REPEALED
Hunter May Kill One Deer, Either
Male or Female, But Not Fawn
With Spotted coat-Non- Resi-
dent Licenses Fall Off.

Madison-The deer hunting season
for Wisconsin will open on Nov. 81
and will close on Nov. 80. Already Ii
cnces for 10000 deer hunters have
been issued and the state conservation
estimates that almost double as many
deer will be shot this year as last
year Last years record, when the
one-buck law was in force showed
that $500 deer was killed. The de-
partment estimates that about 5000
will be shot this year.
Residents of Wisconsin have to pay
one dollar for a license and ten cents
extra for coupon tag on which one
deer can be shipped. The license fee
for non-residents has been increased
from $25 to $50 and as a result the
number of licenses issued to nonresi-
dents has decreased from 400 last
year to fourteen this year.
The hunting season this year is ten
days as compared with twenty days
last year. This reduction was agreed
to by hunters and as result of the
shortened season the one-buck law
law was repealed. A hunter, either
resident or nonresident, can kill but
one deer-either male or female, but
not a fawn with spotted coat.
The claim was made tnat there was
an abuse in the shipment of deers and
the law this year requires a coupon Ii
cense, the coupon being detached at
the time of shipment by the express
company and forwarded to the state
conservation commission. The ship
per must accompany the shipment.

Communities Interested in the

Has rs Exchanges.

Madison--The Wisconsin Telephone
company has asked the state railroad
commission TO allow the establishment
of a zone rate instead of the local
rates of present exchanges. This COM
pany owns seventy-five exchanges and
four ub-exchanges.
1t is set forth in the petition of the
company that the proposed zone rates
will not affect cities but will raise
rates on rural lines.
Because the commission Is not sat
isfed that the plan would prove equit-
able, it has decided to hold hearings in
the principal cities and communities
interested.
In a statement issued the commits
sion says that before authority is
granted TO increase rates, investiga-
ton will be made
Attention should be given" the
statement says, ITO the notifications
which are proposed by the introduce
ton of a system of excess radius
charges which have resulted in an in
crease of the rates to rural subscrib-
ers; to the reasonableness of the ex-
cess charge as such, and, If it be
found that the excess radius method
of applying rates and determination
of charges is reasonable, the general
question OF what distance should be
fixed as a limit of the initial radius
should be settled"

Units throughout the camp are loan
ing their talking machines to the cul-

care in the preparation of the excellent
food provided for the messes. 1t is
said that Italian opera selections

of George NJ. Cohans airs.

BIG POTATO CROP RAISED
This Seasons Yield Is Second Biggest
in History of State According to
Recent Report Issued.

Madison-With an average yield of
ia bushels per acre, a total produc-
ton OF 36,400,000 bushels, the 1917 po-
tato crop of Wisconsin is the second
largest in the history of the state, ac-
cording to the joint crop report issued
at Madison. In 1914 nearly 3S,000,000
bushels of potatoes were produced,
with an average yield Of 124 bushels
Less than 5 per cent of the total crop
remained to be dug when the snow
fell. according to reports received.
Frosted potatoes are reported from a
number of localities, but the total dam
age is relatively small.
The total production of potatoes for
the United States is estimated to be
440,000,000 bushels, compared to 1885,
437 900 bushels last year.

The bodies were discovered by
Charles Buelow, father of the children
on going to the home of his parents
where the twins had spent the past
week.
All of the bodies were found in one
bed and their condition, together with
other circumstances pointed conclu-
sively to death having taken place at
least twenty-four hours before.
A coal stove in an adjacent room
was imperfectly closed and death of
all had evidently come about without

The only hopeful feature of the
situation is that, as Ambassador Bakh-

the few against the many. The Max

tLey have all Russia to reckon with,
and especially the Cossacks, who have
no sympathy with the plan to make
separate peace with the central pow

the majority of the Russians who fol
lowed Kerensky are with the provi-
sional government heart and soul, I'M
derstand that Russia's freedom can be
assured only by the defeat of Germany
by the allies, and will fight to the end.
The spirit prevailing in Petrograd, he
asserts, Is not representative of the
Russian spirit as a whole.

Trade Stamp Law Is Upheld.

Madison-An answer in the trading
stamp case was filed in the supreme
court by Attorney General Walter G..
Owen. The reply declares that the
trading stamp law is constitutional
and declares that it does not hamper
business and refutes the argument in
every particular as put forth by the
IT," ding stamp people. The case will
come to argument before the supreme
court in December assignment.
