Sunday about midnight a barn
belonging to Sam Kennel was dis.
covered to be burning. At the
time the fire was noticed it had
gained such headway that it was
impossible to save it About all
to be done was to prevent the fire
from spreading and this was easily
done as there was not much wind
and the barn was not close to any
buildings

Those who witnessed the basket
bali game at the opera house Sat-
urday night, between Wick Dres-
cherS "Meteors" and Walter Durk's
Electrics', enjoyed rare treat in
deed: Seldom did we see such fast
work in court. The players were
so ubiquitous, bobbing up and down
everywhere, that at first we thot
there were ten men on a side, but
the official count at the half time
showed there were only five doing
double work.
Tne splendid efforts Of both teams
netted them ID points all, at the
half time.
At this point Ely Jet had to re-
tire from the game because the
Electrics protested that the sparks
emitted from his sorrel top, in the
friction of the contest. dazzled them
with his hrilliancy. During the in
termissior, according to report the
EIeCtrics rot the ball in touch with
an eleCtrode and charged It with
he mysterious fluid From then
on the MeteOrs could not handle the
ball and, dropping il. had freqneUt-
ly to wave it an reqoir on its jour-
hey TO the ElectricS basket. '-'S
Some thought that Walter had
simply oiled it up with grease, bor-
rowed for the occasion from Pop.
Whatever the explanation may be
it looks mighty suspicious at all
events that the EleCtries did not
accept the MeteOrs challenge for
another game Monday night but
skipped town Immediately.
.
Next Friday ni4ht at the Opera
House Tilien Delaney's Flash Lights
will play the Celebrities. The Dis
ciplinarians will also play the Ma
iestiCs and the Junior boys teams
will play two short halves on that
occasion
School children with their parents
and friends are warmly invited to
enjoy those games free of charge.

The central record. (Lancaster, Ky.) 18??-current, 1917-12-06

has. not the strength to stand the
strain of nursing litter Of pigs. and
her growth may be checked to such a
degree that she never fully develops.
A SOW farrows 112 to 115 days from
the date Of conception. BY keeping
careful service record, the breeder is
therefore able to determine accurately
when to expect the pigs and to make
his arrangements accordingly. For
convenient reference the CESSATION
table given herewith was arranged by
Coburn to show the expected farrow-
ing dates for service on any day Of the
year from January to December 81.
Calculations are based on a 112-day
CESSATION period. The first line Of dates
In each column indicates the dates of
breeding and directly opposite In the
same column is the date on which the
SOW Is due to farrow.
. II is common practice among farmers
to require thelf bows to produce two
filters n year. Although the sows have
had good care, they will naturally be
run down somewhat In condition, be-
cause the greater portion Of the food
consumed has been utilized for the pro-
duction of milk.
The SOW needs rest before she Is
bred again, and the time for this Is
