Farmers should not be carried
away by present good prices of
tobacco, to the extent of going in
too heavily for raising the weed
this year. Indications, from the
preparations that we observe,

necessary food crops. The rails

Odd Mascot That History Records as

There is in the history of the state
Of Kentucky an odd incident in con-
nection with the invasion of Canada
by the Kentucky troops in 1872. A

Selby's army. assembled AT Harrods-

which the military recruits of the
country gathered on the march 10 the

so the story runs, the company saw
two pigs fighting and delayed the
march To watch the combat When the
march recommended ii WAS observed
that the victorious pig was following
the company; and when the men en-
camped AT night, the animal lay down
near at hand. OF course the soldier
fed their plump recruit. The next day
the pig followed them, and this it did
daily on the march 10 the river.

HELPED AS SC0UTMAsTER

Why busy men turn scoutmasters to
supply the place of others who have
enlisted is told in a recent letter as
follows:
One Saturday afternoon a few
weeks ago a middle-aged business man
on his way home in street car en-
countered a friend in uniform. There
was no installing the service in which
the friend was engaged, for he was
surrounded by a dozen boys in their
straps and crowded as close to him us
they could. They were all in the
khaki of the Boy Scouts of America.
Hello. Wallace" said the business
man, working his way within speaking
distance. How long since you've
been a scOutmaster? Didn't suppose
a busy lawyer like you could give the
time"
I'm a file-closer. so to speak," said
the lawyer. "YOu knew young John
Edwards. who went across with the
National Guard? He used to have
this troop. I'm taking his place until
he comes back-and / never enjoyed
anything more In my life. Better get
a troop yourself and make the same
kind OF discovery I've made-that
you're exactly ten years younger than
you thought you WERE"
Another discovery that the busy
lawyer doubtless made-if he had not
made 1t before he became q scOutmas-
ter-was that his new work offered
him a satisfying opportunity for SER
vice. If he had supposed that scout
troop merely exists for the purpose Of
giving 80 boys good time. he soon
learned that the good time is inciden-
tai and that the real object Of scouting
is to build good citizens and to serve
the community.
Red Cross. agriculture. Thrift
stamps, local emergencies-to men,
ton those things is merely to begin to
list the boy scouts wartime activities.
When he saw the manner in which his
boys attacked the job of selling Liber-
ty bonds he realized that he was head
ing a group of young minutemen en-
rolled in the service of the nation.
