Mr.. Grasby is an Englishman, hav-

handsomest men on the screen, but

strength and manliness of his char
acterizations. He had an extensive

before coming to the films.
His initial screen appearance was
with Selig, subsequently going to Uni

pie That Suitable Lights VIII Be
Installed at New Depot In
Early Future.

Some time ago Chairman Ross
Owens in charge of changing the name
Of and improving Lower street, now
Kirk Place, requested the c. & o.
railroad company that they install at
tractive cluster lights on the street
and about the new depot.
Nothing was heard of the matter un-
til today when Secretary Carl Dodds,
Of the Chamber of Commerce which
organization was backing SIR. Owens
in his request, received letter from
the officials of the railroad in which
he was informed that the attractive
cluster lights would be installed in the
very near future or just as soon as
the company could obtain from the
manufacturers sufficient material to
do the work.
This improment will greatly help
the appearance of the new station and
will give that section of the city much
more light which has been badly need
ed for quite long while.

KENTUCKY LEADS
the SOUTHLAND
IN POULTRY
Bluegrass State Winning Quite a
Reputation on Standardization OF
POultry-Mason Was
Leader.

A prominent man from the United
States Department of Agriculture (E
A. Miller) who Is intimately acquaint-
ed with the condition of Southern
Agriculture, recently stated that Ken
lucky is leading all the southern
states in its poultry work. He attrib-
utes this to the campaign for Stand
ardization of Poultry. This is gener-
ally recognized as the most construc-
tive piece Of Poultry Extension work
ever attempted.
Every county In the state that is
fortunate enough to have county
agent, is pushing the Standardization
work this spring It is even being
SUCCESSFULLY carried on in counties
without agents
Kentucky's first large baby-chick
hatchery has recently been establish
ed and several others are contemplate
ed in the near future. Several large
milk-feeding plants are being put up
in addition to those already in sue
cessful operation. Thus we find that
poultry is coming to occupy the prom
inent place to which it is entitled in
the state. The climate, soil, nearness
to feed supply and markets are all ia
vorable.
Those counties in which the Stand
ardization work has been longest I'M
der way or is farthest deveoped, are
beginning to reap the benefit. Several
of them are planning to hold large
sales of pullets this fall and are al
ready assured Of good demand
Several associations of poultry
raisers have been recently organized
In various parts Of the state for fur
thering the interests Of poultry. Deal
ers report a greatly increased bust
ness in eggs and live poultry during
the past year. The demand has been
strong and prices good.
All of which should be very encour-
aging to the farmer and backyard
poultryman and should inspire him to
make the most of his opportunity to
better his flock by getting start this
spring in the standard breed for his
country. See your County Agent

Federal CROP
REPORT FOR THIS
STATE ENCOURAGING
Crop Report For Kentucky Issued BY
Federal Field Agent Shows Grain
In Fine Condition.

II. F. Bryant, Federal Department
Of Agriculture Agent for the State OF
Kentucky issues the following report
on farm conditions for the past
month:
The condition of wheat In Kentucky
az a whole Is most excellent, after
remarkably favorable fall, winter and
spring. Rye passed the winter In
good condition too, but as most OF
Kentucky's rye is grown on heavy
clay soils that heavy rather badly the
average condition Of rye is slightly
lower than wheat. Wheat now shows
a condition Of 1903 per cent. compared
to 100 per cent. at this time last year
and a ten-year-average condition OF
81 per cent. Rye is 100 per cent. now
compared to nearly 81 per cent. this
time last year and an average condi-
ton of So per cnet. during the last ten
years. Wheat and rye are in excel
lent condition in nearly all parts OF
the United States, wheat showing an
average condition Of almost 100 per
cent. for the United States as whole
and rye nearly 81 per cent.
Farmers, traders and others
throughout Kentucky now report that
there are on the farms 2 per cent.
more brood sows than at this time last
year, which was high year, while for
the United States as whole the num-
Der shows less than l per cent. over
the high number Of 1918.
Farm labor is only IS per cent. nor
NAL in Kentucky now in total avail
able supply, and less than IS normal
supply throughout the United States
as a whole. On the other hand the de-
mand for farm labor is 2 per cent.
more than normal in Kentucky and
nearly 2 per cent more than normal in
the entire United States.
Labor, including discharged SOL
diers, shows a great inclination to
seek the cities and towns and even
former farm workers usually seek city
jobs in preference to going back to the
farms.

HALY STILL NUMB ON
GUBERNATORIAL PUZZLE

General Percy Haly, of Frankfort
and New York, was in Lexington Fri
day In conference with several friends
and political supporters. He declined
to say what his position would be in
the race for the Democratic nomina-
ton for governor, or whether rumors
that he and Senator Beckham would
take opposite sides in the race had
any foundation.
The only political comment he made
was to the effect that Henry Lawrence,
OF Cadiz, mentioned as probable can
didate of the Beckham-Haly wing of
the party for acknowledgement,
would make a very efficient man in
that position.
