 Back Home From France

With nothing good to say of the huns with whom he came in daily and nightly contact for eight days, Noah Roberts, aged 27, son of C. W. Rob erts, farmer residing near Newport, is back from France. Roberts was severely wounded on Novembef 8, three days before the arnlistice was signed on the Sewasaah front He was struck in the back and in the left side by high explosive, and after re- ceiving treatment in hospital in France was sent back to the United States, arriving in New York during the latter part of December. He reached Fort Roots, Little Rock, Christmas day, and as soon as his fla ther learned that he was in Little Rock, he went to Fort Roots and per suaded the colonel in charge to allow his son to come home Sunday night. Noah returned to Little Rock Tues day morning and will remain there until he is fully recovered from his wounds, which are healing nicely.

man says the Germans fought practi- cally altogether with machine guns. l The guns, he said, were hidden, and it was difficult to locate the nests. He killed one German that he knows Jl, he says.
 Roberts states the German is a cowardly fighter and will take the mean advantage of his adversary. He assisted in taking many prisoners, and said many of the huns were glad to get out of the fighting, saying they were tired of war, knowing they were beaten.
 One German was badly shot up and held up their hands and asked to be taken prisoner and given treatment. Stretcher bearers, Roberts says, started to the first aid station with the wounded German, and had gone but few steps when the wounded prisoner pulled a pistol from ihia pocket and shot down one of the SllSUCneF-DCdESIS. All A1uSIiCdH SOl- dier near by witnessed the dastardly act and shot off the head of the pris- oner. Roberts saw many cities that had been laid bare and shot to the level of the ground by German bonn bardment.
 The many friends of young Roberts are glad to know that he is to be back in Newport soon. A happier man cannot be found than Roberts father who has at last found his son after months of anxiety and worry. MT. Roberts could not hear from his son in France, and neither could the young man hear from home, for some
 eason. Recently he was reported severely wounded Mr. Roberts took steps to learn of the whereabouts of his son through the Red Cross, and one can imagine his joy when he learned that Noah was at Ft. Roots, alive.

GOVERNOR APPOINTS MILITARY ESCORT FOR
 FUNERAL OF MIR. DEAN.

Special to Independent.
 Little Roc. Jan 7.- Gov. Trough, upon being notified of the death of John w. Dean, general superintend- ent of the Missouri-P Pacific Railway Company, a member of the Arkansas State Council of Defense, expressed his personal and official regrets to the family. He said that in the death of MT. Dean Arkansas has lost one of its greatest, purest and most con- structive citizens. The governor re- quested the Adjutant general to ap- point committee from the council, and military escort for the funeral of MT. Dean, whose body will lie in state at the Scottish Rite Consistory
 to 3 D. m Tuesday. The ad- iutant General designated the follow- ing committee: H. l.. Remmel, J. Smith Speed, and Joseph w. House, Jr. The remains will be taken this afternoon to Nowata, Okla, his old nome, for interment.
 Citizens of Newport have learned of the death of MT. Dean with extra ordinary regret.
 It will be remembered that Mir. Dean spent week in Newport on the occasion of the recent high water when the river threatened to find it's way oveS the Rock Island levee near the cotton compress. MT. Dean brought every available man to New port to fight this water; he caused to be hauled to Newport dozens of car loads of sand and gravel; he furnished the city with thousands of sacks that were filled with gravel and sand by his men and others and placed on the levee. He took the situ- ation in his own hands, and night time did not find him in his room asleep. He contributed very large share of the work and watchfulness that saved Newport from a disas- trous flood, and Newport feels keenly the loss of one of the states biggest men.

TOBACCO CROP SIZE
HINGES ON WEATHER

Whether the Burley will be
large and of good quality depends
entirely upon the weather from
now on, according to tobacco ex-
lperts. H. F.. Hillenmeyer, Of
Fayette, says if there is an
average rainfall of one inch a
week the rest of this month, the
yield will be larger than last
year, altho he estimates the price
will decline from 10 to- IL cents
a pound, This year there is the
largest tobacco acreage in the
history of Central Kentucky, Mr..
Hillenmeyer said Most of the
land has BEEN devoted to wheat,
lcorn and tobacco and Of the last
named product there is an in
creased acreage of about Is Fer
Icent above normal, he estimates.
Practically all tobacco growers
planted their crop when the
ground was wet and when The
weather turned hot in June,
much of the tobacco was burned
in transplanting. There was
hardly field that lid not have
to be reset, Mr.. Hillenmeyer
stated. The early tobacco was
damaged by the dry weather,
but the late crop with The tx
ception of being Irregular IS
looking good ana is growing
rapidly.

Blackberries Save The Day

Notwithstanding all fruit crops

saving the day for the good

[of nights if their pantry shelves
are not provided with plenty Of
preserves and jam. The Mt.
Vernon Signal says that w. r.
Gott & Co., are shipping from
Mt. Vernon an average of Us
cans of blackberries day.
These cans hold seven and
eight gallons to a can What

small part compared with those
Shipped from all other points in
that county. J. S. Colt, Of
Berea, is the buyer for the
Lippincott Co., all over the state.
Never has there been known a
crop Of blackberries the equal
of the 1919 crop and had it not
been for Mr.. Gott thousands Of
gallons would no doubt, have
wasted in the fields. Mr.. Colt
figures that he will pay to the
people of Rockcastle county
alone not less than $4,000 for
berries. He has already bought
and shipped over 10000 pounds
which is over 10000 gallons.
Rating these at 30cents per gal
lon, a sum of $4,000 has been
paid to the people by this one
crop already. James CLANCY
brought couple of wagon loads
to Mt. Vernon and got $l44 for
them.
