Tobacco has a reasonable ex'
cuse for being high when the fol-
lowing facts of increase in It's
case are taken into consideration.
Cigarette sales in this country
in January, 1917, amounted TO
2,416, 762, 900, cigarettes, as com
pared with 1867, 49, 900 for the
same month a year ago. This is
an increase of about fifty per
cent and represents the largest
gain by months in the history OF
the tobacco business in this cOun-
try. Continuance for the whole
year of this rate of gain would
bring cigarette sales up to thirty
seven billion this year. Output
last year was approximately 20
$50, 900, 600. while the total sales
ten years ago were about live
billion year.
Sales of smoking and chewing
tobacco in January gained 1853 %
over Jan. 1916 For the seven
months ended 3lst Jan. last, gov
eminent receipts from tobacco
manufacturer Ia internal reve.
nue. taxes amounted t" sos, 4S9,
234, an increase of approximate
ly eight million dollars"
The Times does nor publish
the above rn encourage the growth
of tobacco this year in Pow ell
county, bn' 10 show our readers
why other counties will grow
more of the weed this year, max
ing 1t important that we grow
more of what we need to eat. Ii
will be scarce and high next year
and one of the reasons tor il will
be because so much good land
is cultivated in tobacco.

Kill at once every fly you can
find and burn his body.
Observers say that there are
many reasons to believe there
will be moreflies this season than
for number of years.
The killing of just one fly now
means that there will be millions
less next summer.
Clean up your premises; see
az insist that your neighbors do
likewise.
Especially clean tout of way
places" and every nook and
Granny.
Flies will not go where there
is nothing to eat, and their prin'
ciple diet is filth.
The fly has no equal as a germ
carrier, as many as five million
germs have been found in and on
the body of a singly fly.
1t is definitely known that the
fly is the carrier of the germs of
typhoid fever; it is widely be-
lieyed that it is also the carrier
of other diseases, including III
fantile paralysis.
The very presence of a fly is
signal and notification that a
housekeeper is uncleanly and in-
efficient.
Do not wait until the insects
begin to poster; anticipate the
annoyance.
The farming and suburban dis
tricts provide ideal breeding plac-
es, from whence they migrate to
every home habitated by man.
Again we say "kill flies and
save lives !"

chants Association.

TIMELY ADVICE.

Mr.. f. b. Russell, of Louis.
vile, who is developing and OPP
Grating oil lands of his own at
Furnace, writes The Times a We
ry timely letter which we gladly
give space 70. We hope that all
our farmer readers will give heed
70 these suggestions and double
their efforts in growing all kinds
of food products. Germany is
now suffering more from the
want nf something to eat than
from the deadly effects of the fire
of the enemy. We, too, may be
in a similar condi'"n unless we
grow ng crops.
We may think when we pay
% cents pound for meat that il
is high, and it is, but i'll Germa.
ny it is So so per pound, just ten
times as much.

suffer.
Think of this often while it il
yet time to plan for all kinds OF
crops, and do not forget your du.

manity and of patriotism.

WAR VS.. WOMANS SUFFRAGE


The Lexington Herald has al
ways been strong advocate of
both war aud woman suffrage
when, in facr, nothing is further
apart than these two principles,
as was evidenced when the time
came for the Congress woman of
America 10 vote on the war meas.
ure, she pronounced: II want 10
stand by my country, but ! can't
vote for war" The Herald, IT
seems, will have to drop one of
its pet measures, eventually.
The Times regrets but one
thing, and that is that war in all
countries could only come by
majority vote Of the people in
which women were entitled 10
vote, in common with men. Tn
der such a rule, war in any coun.
try would be an impossibility.
For this reason The Times is ten
times stronger than ever for wo-
man suffrage.
This is moi a knock at the pres
ent war, which our leaders tell

THE MecLoNE. BILL.

There seems to have developed
in this district some opposition
to the McGlone bill, which would
make possible a tax OF II per
cent on the oil production of the
State. In introducing this bill
Mr.. McGlone has done so, look
ing to the betterment Of the peo.
pie whom he represents.
The oil business is highly prof
table. 1t is nothing unusual for
oil stocks to yield 100 per cent
profit per year, and sometimes a
1000 per cent on the cost of de.
velopment and operation. Thus
the tax imposed upon them by
the McGlone bill will not stop
nor hinder any developments
whatever, and if it does, the oil
we now know to be here would
later be produced by home PEG.
pie.
There was time when our
lands in Powell and Estill, the
two counties represented by MIR.
McGlone, we're covered by vast
forests. This timber Is gone now
and the counties are left in no
better condition than they would
have been had the timber never
been removed. The removal of
this vast natural resource has not
made anything better for either
county. The help it brought was
only temporary. Some people
grew rich in the timber business,
tut having done so, they prompt
ly moved to adjacent counties
where they had good roads and
schools, which We did nor have.
In like manner rhe oil of these
two counties will be sold off and
forever gone and, unless better
forethought is used IN its passing
than was used in the passing of
the timber. we will be in much
poorer circumstances than we
we were IN the beginning Great
fortunes will, of course, be made,
but not retained. WnV? Be-
cause we developed our oil lands
and exhausted them, but failed
to develop our unties, other
ways. Our roads for want of
funds, will still be miserable; our
schools will remain ~ the back
ground, and "hr natural re-
Sources gone.
The purpose of the McGlone
bill rs TO tax the Orl production
aud provide means for the two
counties to build good roads while
our natural resources are being
exhausted. Ii this is done our
own counties will be more fit
place to reside and our good peo-
pie will stay at home, improve
their farms aud build up their
towns. This is what the people
want, and McGlohe represents
the people. Others may want
something different to this, but
proud we are that NcGlone

preliminary arrangement had been
made
No further steps toward calling out the
national guard will be taken until Con-
gress has acted. 1t is proposed to draft
the entire guard into the federal service,
divorcing it from it's militia status at
once instead of summoning them under
their dual allegiance organizations. This
can be done only with authority of Con-
gress When that has been granted even
the $1,000 guardsmen now in the federal
service on police duty will be drafted
formally so as to do away with any pos
sibility of dual authority over them or
restriction on their use.
