methods of sale and avail
able outlets. 1t resulted that the
mills were not in favor of buying
hemp directly from the individual
farmers on account of the added eX-
pense entai1ed and the lack of relia-
BILE information regarding the ship
per. Hemp being a product, which,
up to the present time, has been
bought mainly upon inspection back
ed by the integrity of the seller,
the mills were not willing to make
purchases on samples from the farm
ers. To avoid this difficulty several
local hemp associations agreed to sell
their hemp through a single agent
upon a commission basis, the agent
to be responsible for the grading,
selling and collection.
THE experiment was successful i'm
that it produced an added revenue Of
several thousand dollars to the farm
ers participating, but the extent to
which the experiment was carried
out is not sufficient to establish CO.
operative hemp sales upon a perma-
nent basis. Only two counties out
of the ten sold practically all of their
hemp by this arrangement: the 9TH
er eight, profiting by sterilization of
prices to local dealers. In any event,
under the existing circumstances, it
became impractfcable to sell all the
hemp in Kentucky through the asso-
citation unless the association was
equipped with facilities for dressing
hemp and tow, condition which
did not exist at any time during the
year. Hence the sales of hemp
which were made were carried out on
a basis of raw or undressed hemp.
The experiment was chiefly valuable
in its indication of the possibility of
profitable hemp marketing which
might be brought about by proper
sterilization of grades and stand
ardization of process of preparing
fiber for market"
Every grower of hemp in the Blue
grass should write at once to the Ag
ricultural Experiment Station al
Lexington and ask that this up-to-
the-minute bulletin be sent to him
as soon as it is off the press.

ton is felt heaviest by small farmers.
Often they do not have the power for
sufficient improvement of the soil and
their farm is Of too low value to guar
antcc advances sufficient for its i'm
provement. Then is it just to these
farmers and to the future Of our coun-
try, to tax these lands continually to
build roads for negro transfer drivers
to run over, frightening horses and re-
fusing to perform any other labor |
think not The above or some plan
where the user should pay according
to the use should be had.
As Z whcle DO not understand the
intention OF this suggested bill: but
the fact that senator Ridgell is giving
the matter attention should be appre-
ciated. The Senator does not usually
fail in anything he undertakes and if
the public believes It is time to stop
discussing roads long enough to build
some and support him in his undertak-
ing. I feel satisfied We will see q

kind. Multiply by 100, if the job is to
be finished as expected. We have a
State tax Of 25 cents per horsepower
on automobiles. think this should be
made to apply to all vehicles, whether
drawn by gasoline, horse, COW, or any
other power, If it uses the roads. Then
I think we should put a 25 per cent
tax on gasoline and all oils and
greascs used to operate these vehicles
BY taxing, these products the owner
would pay for the maintenance of the
roads, according to the use he makes
Of them. Automobiles are being used
in various businesses and the operators
must find them a paying proposition.
They certainly could not object to pay
ing a regular tax to build roads as
they would more than get the 25 per
cent in cost Of operation.
Then I believe that other vehicles
should be taxed same as automobiles
as the difference made with one load
and on one trip would more than pay
the cost. The man that does not own
q vehicle of any kind pays the same
capitation road tax as his neighbor,
owner Of various kinds, yet no one
claims that he needs good roads as
much as the other.
If our section is to progress as 1t
should. being rural, two things are
most important-one the building OF
roads and the other the increase of
farm ownership, therefore the tax in
crease on real estate must soon reach
its limit.
In many cases the burden of taxa
