ARRANGING FOR THE BIG VIC
TORY CELEBRATION.

If the plans now being matured for
holding a big peace celebration in
this city do not go awry, Paris will
witness one of the biggest times in
its history, or at least in its later day
history. An enthusiastic meeting of
the promoters and the various COM
mittees, together with a number of
ladies of the city who are interested
in the big event, was held at the
court house Sunday afternoon, when
a number of plans were made, and
the committees instructed as to their
duties. 1t has been arranged to hold
the big celebration on Thursday, No
vember %.
Merchants and residents will be
asked to decorate their stores and
homes in honor of the occasion, and
everything will be done to make the
people of the county enter fully into
the spirit of the occasion and have
a real good lively old time in cele-
brating the end of the world-war
There will be monster parade, the
details of which have not yet been
fully worked out. Special features of
this parade will be a detachment of
the Students Army Training School
and the S. A. T. c. band, from Camp
Buell., Lexington, and mothers of boys
in the service. For this latter every
mother in the county who has boy
in the service is earnestly requested
to notify Mrs. NJ. H. Daley, Chair
man of the committee as to her in
tention to take part in the big pa
rade. The boys who come from Camp
Buell. to help in the celebration will
be entertained at the homes of Paris
people by twos, being escorted to
their place by Red Cross girls. Invi-
| tations have been extended to sur
rounding towns to send delegations to
take part in the big event, the big
geSt ever.
It is planned to have the jollifica-
ton begin at three o'clock in the af
ternoon, when the parade will take
place, and another big parade at
night, followed by a display of pa
triotic fireworks and other doings

GOVERNMENT REPRESENTATIVE
TO EXPLAIN FARM LOANS.

The aims and plans of the Federal
Farm Loan Bureau will be explained
in an address to the farmers of Bour-
bon county. on Saturday, November
~, by a Government representative,
IL arrangements now under way are
completed and the influenza ban lift
ed by that time.
Mr.. Myron A. Waterman, of Kan
sas City, Mo-, special assistant in
charge of the organization work of
the Bureau, was in Paris yesterday
making preliminary survey of the
work and arranging for the address
which he will deliver. Due notice
will be given through the papers Of
the city of the time, the place and
other arrangements as soon as they
are perfected.
The plan of the Land Bank sys-
tenn is that actual farmers can bor-
row fifty per cent. of the value of
their farms and twenty per cent. of
the insurable investments, to the ex-
tent of from 500 to $4,000 at FIVE
and One-half per cent. interest and
on from five to forty years time, pay
ments to be made on an amortization
plan, and any part or all of the loan
may be repaid after five years at any
payment period.
The rate of interest farmers pay
the bank will always be at the mini
mum and under no circumstances can
| it exceed six per cent, and the sys-
tenn will give land values some sta
bility. All broad visioned forward
looking bankers and merchants and
professional men are whole-heartedly
assisting in extending the usefulness
of the Federal Land Bank.
This meeting should be very gen
orally attended by farmers of charac-
ter and industry, who have small cap
ital, for this system provides way
whereby tenants may become land
owners. Mr.. Waterman will answer
any and all questions that may be
asked him about the plans and the
objects of the Land Bank.

The advent Of the Y. NJ. G. A. hut

destructive of prejudice than the tank
was destructive to the Hun. At first
both the Y. NJ. c. A. and the knights

in view of the fervent appreciation
which the soldiers express concerning

CENSUS BUREAU ISSUES LEAF
TOBACCO REPORT.

Under the provisions of the Can
trill law, passed by Congress in 1912,
the Buerau of Census has just issu-
ed it's quarterly report showing the
stocks of leaf tobacco held by the
manufacturers and dealers in the
United States on October LIST.
This report is of unusual interest as
the market for Kentucky tobaccos
will very shortly open. The total
stock of all tobaccos in the United
Staes is practically the same as last
year, showing that during war times,
even with foreign shipments largely
curtailed on account of shortage of
ships, that consumption of tobacco
has been equal to production, which
means healthy condition, especially
so far as the tobacco grower is con-
cerned.
: The situation as to the Burley
crop is especially favorable to the
grower, as the manufacturers of this
type have 100000 pounds less of
Burnley than they had year ago and
their holdings of Burley leaf are less
than they have been since the Can
trill law was passed six years ago.
The total holdings of Burnley are only
100000 pounds and every one
knows the crop of Burley this year
will be very light The Burnley mar
ket, based on supply and demand
should be higher than ever in the his
| tory of the market. With light
crop grown this year and with hold
| ings less than usual, the buyers OF
Burley should be eager to make a
very high market. The average crop
Iof Burley is about 25O,0OO,OOO
pounds and the Cantrill law report
shows that the manufacturers have
less than a years supply of Burnley in
stock
