Pfofiteerins In Flour.

What is profteeripg? tits the
charging of more than a fair
profit for goods, for the ne
cessities of life particularly.
People must eat. Bread is the
staff of life. S. Thruston Ballard
candidate for Lieutenant Govern,
or on the Republican ticket, is a
miller, a manufacturer of flour
from which bread is made. By
his own statement to the Ken
lucky High Cost of Living g.
mission he sold flour in Louisville
at 81. 10 a barrel more than he is
selling goods in New Orleans,
Louisiana. It's not to be suppos-
ed that a hard.headed business
man like Mr.. Ballard would sell
his goods at less than a profit in
New Orleans. Therefore, the
conclusion is inevitable that Mr..
Ballard sold flour in Kentucky at
81. 10 more per barrel than a
reasonable profit. No wonder be
is a rich man and no wonder the
Republican party, locking for
men with means to help it elect
a State ticket, has selected him
- one of its candidates.

ALARMING.

The following has been sent US,
by the investigating committee,
at Louisville: "Up to 1912 tuber.
culosis caused more deaths than
any other disease but after that
time, because of the work done
by organizations formed to teach
sanitation and prevention and the
use of modern methods of fight
ing the plague and it's spread, it
dropped to third place in the list
of fatal diseases. But heart
disease and pneumonia, the lead
ers in the list, lead tuberculosis
by only eight-tenths and five-
tenths of one per cent respective
ly.
There are about twenty-nine
thousand nine hundred living
cases of tuberculosis in Kentucky.
Unless these patients are proper
ly cared for or taught to care for
themselves every active ease may
become the focus for five other
cases. Weare trying to stop the
needless sacrifice of human lives
by teaching the victims of this
disease to practice the simple
laws of sanitation in their homes,
in public places and among their
friends.
''In Louisville alone there are
about three thousand cases of
tuberculosis and last year there,
were FIVE hundred deaths from
the disease. We are trying to
stop the ravages of the white
plague in Kentucky and with the
help of the generous citizen of the
State this end ultimately will be.
achieved.
