WHISKEY DISTILLING IN KEN.
lucky THING OF THE PAST

D1stilleries were darkened until
after the war Saturday night at II
o'clock.
/ Government storekeepers-gau
were on hand everywhere to see that
the last gallon had been manufac-
tured or the mash removed.
The new law, provision in the
Food Control Bill, provides that man
ufacture must cease Sept. 8, and as
distilleries always have been required
to close at II o'clock on Saturday
nights under the law, lights were
turned out promptly at that hour.
Distillers predict that whiskey,
which has doubled in price during
the past two years, will cost three
times as much in the near future.
At any rate, owners of the product
are not taking it from bond as rap
idly as they did short time after
Congress gave indications of stop
ping the sale altogether.
Although there are about 200 dis
tilleries in the State, very few of

time. Uncertain as to what course
legislation might take, many of them
did not open during the summer.
Others closed during the last few
days.
More than $50, 900, 900 is the esti-
mated amount of actual money in
vested in the distillery business in
Kentucky. This does not include the
values of the trade names of the va
rious brands. The fact that a whis-
key was produced in Kentucky adds
to it's value. One distiller several
years ago sold the name of his brand
for 100000.
Other allied industries will be af-
fected. The value of the cooperage
plants in the State, one of the allied
industries, is estimated at $1,000
900. The majority of these plants
will be forced to close. The number
of employees Of distilleries and allied
| industries who will be without work
| is estimated at between 5000 and
1000.

DAYLIGHT SAVERS.

The Louisville Herald reprints a
story about a farmer who regarded as
a blow-hard a neighbor who said he
was the earliest riser in the neighbor-
hood. He called at the residence of
the boastful neighbor at 2 o'clock one
morning. TIE wife of the man he
sought responded to a knock at the
door. She said in answer to a ques-
ton as to where ST was: "Well, he
was around the place early this morn
ing, but I don't know where he is
now"
Farmers as a class are great savers
Of daylight, but the only farmer we
ever heard of who was :around the
place at two in the morning" was
telegraph editor on morning paper
who was a commuter and a back-to,
the-soiler. residing in New Jersey and
committing and telegraph-editlng In
Philadelphia. He was around because
he hadn't yet gone to bed.-State

STORE WINTER SUPPLIES.

A family of five, including two
adults and three children under ~
years of age, under ordinary condi-
tions, should have stored for each
month of the winter season the fol-
lowing food supplies: 1 bushel Of
Irish potatoes; " bushel of other
root vegetables, such as carrots, tur-
nips, and parsnips; 25 quart cans of
other vegetables; and 20 quarts of
canned fruit and preserves. These
figures are based on estimates by the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture, which adds that most of this
should come from the perishable pro-
ducts of the many home gardens of
this year.
With these figures as basis, it is
thought that almost any family may
calculate it's requirements, taking in
to consideration the length of the
winter season in any given locality.
Thus, in the South, where food crops
may be grown in the fall, the win
ter allowance may be less than for
the far North, where one must count
on supplies for several months longer.
There is still time, says the depart
ment, for a final drive in canning,
preserving and drying. In using dri-
ed vegetables, it may be assumed that
given quantity of dried vegetables
is equal to four times its bulk of can
ned vegetables; that is, one-fourth OF
quart of dry string beans when
soaked over night is approximately
equal to one quart canned.

FORMER KENTUCKIAN TELLS OF
GERMAN CRUELTY.

The conference of the American
Alliance for Labor and Democracy,
which concluded its big loyalty con-
ference at Minneapolis, Mimi, open
ed it's campaign to drive German
propaganda from labor's ranks in
Minnesota.
In part of the campaign literature
will be the address by Wesley Frost,
who drew graphic picture of his
experiences as American consul at
Queenstown after the sinking Of the
Lusitania, the Laconia and scores of
smaller craft.
1.-THE happy hunting ground of the
German submarines stretched out in
the ocean south Of Ireland" he said.
Hundreds of men and women told
me their pitiful tales with the voices
of their dead still ringing in their
ears. They told, too, of the grim jokes
of submarine commanders who in
some cases placed survivors on the
tops of U-boats and submerged, later
to reappear and permit the crews to
take snapshots of the struggling
victims to be sent home to relatives
and sweethearts.
"These were not idle dreams. They
were the statements of our weeping
men and women, sworn to before AL
mighty God"

During the past month I know OF
