Study Will Save Sorrow.

More than in any other item, pros
pective buy ers should make a close
study of the talking machine field,
tor very few people know much
about such articles, and it is too i'm
portant to jump into the game. In
presenting the NictFola, Roark pub
licly and privately urges people to
see and hear all machines, as no
other course IS safe. Comparisons
are cducative, and the buyer should
ully avail himself Of every opportu-
nifty for investigation, not OILY of
the machines but by interviewing
owners of machines, and getting the
Gem plete record of service delivered.
The purchase price is the first pay
meni on some INSTRUMENTS, as re-
pair i'lll are frequent and expensive.

On Account OF The War The College
OF Agriculture Will Not
0pan Until Oct. Is.

In its effort to help win the war,
the College of Agriculture of the
University of Kentucky has arrang-
ed to condense its Course, opening
on October, I4th., instead of Sept.
9th, and closing next Spring on
April 18th, Instead of continuing
until June as usual.
This is done so that Young men
who wish TO attend may remain on
the farm during the busy faIl season
and return in time to assist in put.
ting in the crops.
In order to accomp 'ish as nearly
as possible the usual amount OF
College work In the shortened year,
Saturdays will be utili zed for class
work and other holidays will be re-
duced to the minimum. This Of
course means harder work for both
teaches and students but the College
regards it as patriotic duty.
The demand for the graduates of
the agricultural Colleges to fill vari-
Gus positions was never as great as
now. The College of Agriculture
of the University Of Kentucky is
making an earnest effort to adjust
its courses that its students may
measure up to the former high stan
dard and, at the same lime cause
no serious interference with the work
on the farm from which It's students
come. Its facilities for instruction
are better than ever before and it Is
hoped that the advantages it affords
under the new system will be SO ap-
preclated by the citizens Of Kentucky
that a record attendance will be
provided this fall.

NO PLACE FOR LoAFERs.

There are a great many things which are done at the present time which will be limited to the war There are others which will be main- tained and it is not strange that there : Should be a plea thus early for the re- tention and enforcement of the anti loafng laws
 To a certain extent the government is helping along this movement at the present time by its work or fight re- quirement. That, however applies only to those within the draft age, but there are number of states which are insisting that every male who is phy- sically able must be employed and though the age limit varies it is in some instances placed as high as 50. Already the good effects of this law are being noticed. The laws haven't Teen in force very long but there is apparently a recognition of the fact that they are going to be enforced, and the result is that those who are affected, those who have been doing nothing, either because they didn't have to or didn't want to, are getting
 
 from their habitual haunts, and it is a happy miss. Just how much they are actually doing is hard to tell, but if they are at work they are doing something for their own betterment, not perhaps because they want to but because they understand that it is nec- essary.
 There is no reason why there should he any let up in this matter, but with good results being obtained in the states where the law is being enforced it suggests that similar action should be taken by every state either by the insistence upon the respect for laws which may exist but have been for gotten or by the adoption of new laws War or no war the loafers should dis appear.

SHOULD BE RECORD CANNING
 YEAR.

This is the season of the year when the attention of the housewives is or should be to a large extent directed to canning. The gardens are yielding the carly supplies and aside from those which are required for the table effo, should be made to store the excess up for the winter months which are to come. And there are also the fruits and berries which need to be taken care of. Some of them are already available and others will be steadily coming along and by canning them for future use it will be possible to elimi- nate much of the waste which former " took place because of the inability to use or to market all the fruit and the vegetables as they ripened
 This is the second season in which national wide efforts have been made to bring about a conservation Of food products. The experience of the pre- vieus canning season has prepared the housewives for the task that lies be- fore them this summer They must be more or less familiar with all the details and as the result of the accom- plishments a year ago there is reason to expect that many more will be en- ragged in this commendable effort this year. Not a small amount of valuable assistance is being given by the gov ernment and other agencies which are urging not only the canning but the drying of fruits and vegetables, so that there can be no excuse for non participation because of a lack of in-
 
 when everyone must help and when all must make whatever contribution pos sible to relieve the food situation the response to the appeal to all to can ought to be a record breaker. It is a case where self and family are to re- ceive the direct benefit. with the coun- try at large and the soldiers and sail ors being aided indirectly.

Allied intervention in Russia is ap- parently on the way, encouraged and hastened perhaps by the noble efforts of the Czecho- -slovaks. These men, ex- lies, without a country, the oppressed of many governments, some prisoners taken from the Austrian army, others former Russian soldiers have formed themselves into well-armed and we'll disciplined armies. They are now in control of several sections of the Si- berian railway and have even seized the cities of Irkutsk and Vladivostok They are distinctly anti bolshevik, and as such are finding plenty of sympa- thy among the better classes in their opposition to bolshevik incompetence, anarchy and treason. To guard the foreign consulates during the fighting at Vladivostok. allied forces have been landed from the warships in the har- bor, including Americans and Japanese as well as Europeans. At the other doorway of Russia, the population of tine Murmansk coast has appealed to the allies for help against the Finn and German troops that are gaining control of the railroad southward from the Arctic ocean. Here also allied forces have been ashore for some time to protect the huge stores at Kola and Archangel.
