President w. II. Shanks, and Man
ager A. b. Florence, of the Florence
Oil Company, with headquarters at
Stanford. were in Richmond early
this week. looking for some drills
and other material with which TO
start work on several of their leases
in Lincoln county. They are very
sanguine of hitting the greasy fluid
in Lincoln. Mr.. Florence is an exper-
fenced oil man and believes that the
"big poor' for which the operators
are all looking, is in Lincoln sure.
Mr. Shanks is president of the Lin
coin County National Bank, and is
one of the best known farmers and
financiers in that section. He often
visits Mrs. Shanks' parents, Col. and
Mrs. T. f. Baldwin, here. He and
Mrs. Shanks have just returned from

THE SEED CORN PROPOSITION

Farmers tell us that il will be diff
ficult 10 get seed corn this year and
many say that a thopugh investiga-
ton should be made before any corn
is planted next sprinng. A few days
ago Cashier W. NJ. Bright, Of the
Lincoln County National Bank, had
an order for seed corn from a party
at Charlottesville, Ind, who said he
wanted q sack TO test before he
bought. Mr.. Bright forwarded a
small amount, as was requested, and
an examination of il is now being
made. This is mentioned merely TO
show that seed corn is a scarce item
in Indiana, as well as in Kentucky. A
dozen ears Of the best looking corn
we have seen in many a day hangs
in a conspicuous place in the Lin
coin Bank. II was taken from the
crib Of Mr.. Henry Catron, OF the
East End, and Mr.. Lee Hill has been
giving il a test. So far only half,
or probably a fraction more, Of the
grains have sprouted. There is a dark
speck at the heart Of the grain on
much Of the corn and the grains hav-
ing this speck seemingly have ne life.
Any way they will not sprout. Mr..
Hill has a box containing sand sit
ting on one of the radiators, which
keeps the sand about. the tempera-
ture Of the ground in springtime,
and the est is considered a very
fair one. There never was time
when it was as important to raise
big crops OF corn as it is now, and
much care should be taken to plant
seed that Will terminate. 1t seems to
US that farmers would do we'll to get
together and take some action about
securing seed corn that they have
reason will "bring forth good fruit"

SHELTON AT LAST LOCATED

Dudley Shelton, who shot to death
Attorney J. Mortimer Rothwell, of
Lancaster, at Crab Orchard some
four years ago, and for whom search
had been made since, has been To-
Gated and is in Jail at Watseka, ILL.,
Sheriff II. C. Baughman was aided in
locating Shelton by Herman ScoviIle,
deputy sheriff of Laurel county, and
Mr.. Scoville has gone for the man.
Sheriff Baughman is to congratulate
ed on his fine work so soon after
getting into office, and those who
know him also know that he will con-
tinue the good work as long as he is
high sheriff of Lincoln county. The
killing of Mr.. Rothwell by Shelton
was the outgrowth of a quarrel Roth
well had had with Dudley Skeletons
father, w. G. Shelton. The two had
hot words and Rothwell slapped the
elder Skeletons jaws. AS he did so the
son fired, killing Rothwell. When
Sam Ramsey attempted to arrest
him, he fired at him, breaking a leg
and making his escape. Before leav-
ing the scene, however, Shelton is
said to have reloaded his pistol as the
crowd that had gathered stood back,
fearing to make a move.

TUESDAY. 18th. COURT DAY

Our people should bear in mind
that the next county court day will
be held on Tuesday instead Of Mon
day. The reason for the change, as
explained last issue, is that Mondays
are heatless DAYS and as many of the
people who come to court do lot Of
shopping il would prove an incon-
venience to them not to have the on
portunity to buy what they want.
The fact that the February court
will be held on Tuesday, 18th, is be
ing well advertised and il is hoped
and believed that IL the weather is
ANYTHING like good a great crowd
win gather here. December and jan
uary court days were very poorly at
tended because of the intensely cold
weather and the country people have
not been given an opportunity to get
together and exchange ideas for a
long time. Remember the change in
the date of court and tell all of your
friends to meet you here Tuesday,
Feb. 18th, rather than Monday, 18th.

YOU CAN'T BUY FLOUR ALONE

"You can't buy -four alone, but
must get an equal amount in pounds
Of meal, barley -four, buckwheat
-four, corn flour, corn starch, corn
grits, oatmeal, potato -four, rice
-four, rolled cats, soy bean -four or
sweet potato four" says Federal
Food Administrator for Kentucky
Fred NJ. Sackett. This may work
hardship on some but it must be car
ried out TO the letter, for IL your
merchant or your miller fails to com
ply with the order which was effec-
tive Jan. 2Sth, he will be subject to
a fine of $4,000 and a year or more
in a Federal prison. Flour must be
conserved in order to win the war
and it is nothing more than RICH.
that the people at home help conserve
it, and it will be done or the govern
ment will know why. This paper is
informed by the J. II. Baughman
Milling Co. that it cannot sell to the
retail merchants or others flour I'M
less they buy an equal quantity of
meal at the same time, unless they
are assured by the merchant that he
has a sufficient quantity of meal OFF
hand to last as long as the -four does,
selling pound for pound. In the case
where the farmers have wheat stored
they too mast buy meal when they
take flour and they are not allowed
to take more than 48 pounds. How
ever, if they have corn they can
bring in enough to make As pounds
of meals and it will be exchanged for
the meal. The farmer may not like
this but this is a time when all must
be treated alike and all must do his
bit. In order that the grocers be saw
ed as much annoyance as possible
the housewife will do well to remem-
Der that it matters not how small
amount of -four she orders, she must
also order a similar amount of meal
or some of the meal substitutes. Her
grocer can not deliver her order un-
less she does this. Town people are
not allowed to buy more than "a
pounds of -four, while their country
cousins are privileged to buy as much
as az pounds.
