REGISTER GERMANS
 DURING FEBRUARY
In Sn alier Communities Orders Wi'' Be Carried Out By
 the Postmasters

The week beginning Monday February i, has been desig- mated by the U. $. Department of Justice for registration of the half-million unnaturaliZed Germans in the continental United States by police or post masters, in pursuance of Presi- dent Wilson's alien enemy pro- clamation declaring this action as a means of minimizing the danger of enemy sympathizers in the United States.
 Earlier plans for administra- ting the registration in the Eastern cities first and gradu- ally extending 1t to the country were abandoned because of the fear that some germans might avoid registration by moving from district to district.
 Regsration will involve the gathering of detailed informa- ton concerning the business, relatives and habits of every German, together with his pho- tograph and finger prints.
 After registering he must carry certificate card and may not change his place of residence without approval of the police or postmaster. Vio- lation of the regulations will be punishable by internment for the war.
 The orders do not apply to German women nor to any per- Isons under 14 years of age, be- cause these are not chased as alien enemies by law.

TOBACCO MUST
Be AT FACTORY
TO Be EXEMPT
Kentucky Court of Appeals Again De-
nies Tobacco COmpany's Tax
Exemption Plea.

Frankfort, KY, September 2S-Raw
material for manufacturing must be
at the factory in which it is to be used
in order to be exempt from local tax
alton under the State tax law.
Judge Shackelford Miller, of the
Court of Appeals, has refused an in
junction to the American Tobacco
Company, with sought to enjoin the
city of Bowling Green from taxing to-
bacco in its warehouses there.
The company has no factory in
Bowling Green. 1t has one in Louis
vile, but most of its plants are To-
Gated outside of the state This tobac-
co was purchased from farmers and
was to be shipped out to the factories
The company contended that what
was done to the tobacco in the Bowl
ing Green warehouses actually was
the initial step in the process of man
ufacturing and it should be exempted.
The law stipulates that "raw mater
ial actually on hand at plants for the
purpose of manufacturing" shall be
exempt from local taxes.
Judge Miller said that the purpose
of the exemption was to encourage the
establishment of manufacturing
plants in Kentucky. All exemptions
which free individuals and concerns
from their share of the burden of tax
alton should be strictly construed and
limited.
He decided that to call this raw ma
terial actually at the plant for the
purposes of manufacturing" is no
more reasonable than to exempt to-
bacco in the farmers barns, then to
be stripped and sorted.
Judge Moss previously had denied
the company an injunction.

STATE farm AGENT
HERE IN'INTEREST OF
WHEAT AND SHEEP
State Farm Agent Geoiirey Morgan
Says Wheat and Sheep Campaign
In Kentucky Has Been
Great Success State
VIII DO lis Part In
Feeding Fighters.

Mr.. Geoffrey Morgan, of Lexington,
chief of the County Farm Agents of
the state of Kentucky, is in Maysville
today as the guest of County Agent E.
F. Boyd and has been taken for
drive over Mason county so that he
can get an idea of what the farmers of
this section of the state are doing and
so that he can come in contact with
some of the farmers.
Mt Morgan's trip over the state just
at this time is in the interest of the
Wheat and Sheep campaign recently
launched all over the nation by the
government He is endeavoring to
bring the campaign to a close and
says that Kentucky will be found do
ing more than her share in feeding
and clothing our fighting men and our
allies. In many of the counties over
the state, Mr.. Morgan says, the cam
paign has closed and in every county
so far reporting the acreage of wheat
has been greatly increased.
The full report from Mason county
is not available as yet for the precinct
workers have not handed into Coun-
ty Agent their full report, however,
Mr.. Boyd says from what he has been
able to learn from the workers, Ma
son county will be just as patriotic in
this effort as she has been in all 9th
ers and will do more than has been
asked of her.
