ASK THAT AIRPLANES Be
ROUTED THROUGH HERE
Liberty Loan Officials Asked to Route
Army Airships BY Way Of Mays,
vile From Lexington to
Cincinnati.

Some time ago 1t was announced
that a company of United States Army
airships would flight sham battles
over cities in the Fourth Federal Re-
serve district during the Victory Loan
campaign anl among the cities listed
for visit from the air army were
Lexington and Cincinnati.
An effort is now being made to have
officials route this company of army
planes from Lexington to Cincinnati
by way of Maysville. The Secretary
of the Maysville Chamber of Com
merce has written to the Publicity
Secretary for the Fourth Federal Re-
serve district requesting that the
planes be routed this way and Mr.. W.
W. Ball, Jr., Secretary of the Mason
County Liberty Loan Committee has
also written to headquarters making
this request.
It is more than likely that the re-
quest will be granted and that Mays
vile and Mason county people will
have the opportunity Of seeing air.
ships in army formation.

CARNIVAL MAY Be PLACED
ON EAST END LOT next week
Although Most Business Men Want
BarkoOfs Shows on the Streets,
Mr.. Barkoot Says He Hardly
Thinks Streets Are Wide
Enough.

Mr.. Bade Barkoot, brother of B. X.
Barkoot, Manager of the Barkoot's
great Exposition Shows, was In
Maysville today having run down from
Lexington to look over the field and
make final arrangements for the ap-
pearance Of the company here next
week.
Up to the present time 1t has not
been definitely decided as to whether
the carnival will be placed on the
streets in the down town section or on
the Donovan lot adjoining the ball
park in the East end.
Mr.. Barkoot today said he would
much rather place the shows on the
streets but he said that he feared the
fronts Of his shows would be too wide
for the street and that to keep from
blocking the streets the show would
have to be placed on the East end lot
This matter has not been definitely
settled and will probably be decided
upon by the committee within the next
day or so.

DISINFECT THE
sEEDPoTAT0ES, THE
COUNTY AGENT SAYS
New Disease Found In Seed Potatoes
VIII Make Crop Short Unless
Action Is Taken.

County Agent George Kirk issues
the following statement:
A new disease has made its appear
ance in Kentucky and must be guard
ed against This Is known as little po-
tato. This disease shows in potatoes
being produced on the stems above
ground, in rotting Of the stems, near
the ground level, and in only little po-
tatoes being produced in the hills.
This organism lives in the soil for
years like the scab. At present the
little potato is rare in Kentucky, but
by using precautions we can keep It
out of our soils. This disease Is car
ried in blackish hard Jumps or patches
on the potatoes. These patches vary
In size from pin head to a grain
Of wheat. They look like dirt but they
won't wash off. To prevent getting
this disease, use clean seed potatoes
and, II any of these black Jumps are
noticed, disinfect the seed potatoes
with corrosive sublimate. Foralin
does not prevent the little potato dis
ease.
Corrosive sublimate is white pow.
der that is sold by any druggist. Bich.
loride Of mercury is another name fol
it. 1t costs zoe an ounce. One ounce
is dissolved in 71a gallons of water
1t is easier to wet the corrosive sub
Innate with a small amount of water
making a paste, and then to add thu
rest of the 71s gallons of water. Be
fore cutting the potatoes they ar,
soaked in sack in the corrosive sub
Innate for thirty minutes and no long
er. Then the tubers are spread out tt
dry before cutting. Corrosive subli
mate is deadly poison and, therefor,
1t should be kept out of children
reach. 1t should not be used in meta
containers but in wooden tub o.
barrel Corrosive sublimate shoul'
not be used over five times, unless re
newed with fresh solution, for it lose
strength rapidly. 1t controls scab a
! well as the little potato disease, St
that If the potatoes are treated wit
it, the formalin treatment for sea
Is wholly unnecessary.
The disinfecting of seed potatoes /
preventive measure. 1t is econom
to spend SOC to s1.O0 an acre to insur
the potato crop against loss from sea
and little potato.

EVERYBODY WILL
DRESS UP TO GREET
RETURNING HEROES
Appeal 10 Clothes Consciousness More
StrOnC ly Emphasized This Spring
Than Ever Before.
"Dres Up!"

"Dres Up!"
This is the command which is be-
ing echo ed and re-echoed throughout
the length and breadth Of the land
today. :, is the command of an awak-
ened Gle hes consciousness which will
not be denied, and 1t is being borne
in upon the minds Of the people ev-
erywhere. The ending Of the war
seemed 10 more strong emphasize than
ever the Dress-Up appeal to men, wo-
men and children. All want to dress
up to meet the returning soldiers and
sailors, and because of the natural de-
sire to look their best.
This command to Dress Up has been
heard even subconsciously, for 1t is an
impulse which naturally rises in the
breasts of men and women with the
approach of spring. The Easter sea-
son always has been time when peo-
pie in all civilized lands have express
ed a desire to appear at their best.
| Even Nature dresses itself in new
garb in the spring, and the DressrUp
impulse therefore, permeates the
world naturally and without effort. 1t
is only the miserly and grasping who
have no desire for new raiment in the
spring-and these people are not like
ly to get far in the esteem of their fell
low men, for the simple reason that
they are out Of harmony with others.
Next week will be celebrated as
Dress-Up Week in Maysville. Chair
man Myron Merz, of the local COM
mittee, announced that the local busi-
ness men have assured his committee
of hearty cooperation in the celebra-
ton of the week and there Is every
reason to believe that the week will
be great success here. Every store
in Maysville will make special eff
fort for a special showing of the latest
styles during the week.
Persons living in the Maysville dis
trct are invited to visit Maysville dur
ing the week and become acquainted
with the latest styles in all kinds of
wearing apparel.

.If You Can't Get 1t In West Union

Local Business Men-Begin.
ming Of Development Of
Great Ohio Trade
Area.

AS one of the first moves in the de-
veloping of the great trade area lying
in Ohio to the rear Of Aberdeen, the
Maysville Chamber of Commerce Will
today entertain a committee of West
Union, Ohio, business men. The party
will consist of some eight or ten pro-
minent merchants from the Adams
county capital. They will be the guests
of the local business men at dinner
at the Central Hotel and after dinner
will attend the concert of the Miami
Glee Club at the High School Audi
torium.
Maysville business men realize that
there is a vast territory lying In oh'o
near to Maysville which can be de-
yeloped into a big business district for
Maysville. While there are several
splendid towns in both these counties
there are many articles of merchan-
disc that cannot be purchased in those
towns. The slogan for tonights BAN
ouet will be "If you can't get in West
Union Come to Maysville." This VIII
also apply to Ripley and Georgetown
in Brown county and Manchester as
we'll as West Union in Adams county
The local business men realize thai
there is constantly great stream o.
business coming to Maysville from
these two counties in Ohio but they
also realize that there can be more
kindly feeling formed and that this
business can be greatly increased
1t is to be hoped that similar dele
cations Of business men from othe'
nearby Ohio towns can be induced tt
come to Maysville as the guests of tn
lChamber of Commerce at some latte
ldates.

written law" was invoked by the Ham,

when they ignored the murder charge
against Frank Munson, of Hutchison,
KY, who shot and killed Charles
Foley when he found him with his
wife, Hannah Munson, in a rooming
house here on March 9.
Munson declared that Foley, whose
home was at Mt. Sterling, KY, induced
his wife to leave her home and their
six children and come to Cincinnati
with him.
AS there was no indictment, Munson
will go free.
