this and at the same time furnishes great
nutrition at a moderate cost. For this

Every attention is given to insure uni

is the testing of the ingredients for fresh

the different oils are blended in steam

Milk is prepared for oleomargarine by
placing it in a machine and pasteurizing

introduced and the milk is allowed to

as the same degree of ripeness must be
attained each time, otherwise the flavor
of the finished product may vary.
The oils are next run down into the
Rage chuyns, where the great dashers
mix them with the milk. The best grade

it at this time, which improves the fla

TOBACCO MEN ORGANIZE tt
FIGHT TOBACCO CRUSADE

Tobacco growers and buyers of
Northern Kentucky plan action to
combat the crusade against tobacco
by the Anti-Tobacco League.
w. D. Spalding, of Covington, to-
bacco merchant, who called meet
ing of tobacco men, on Monday, Sep
TENDER 8, said the tobacco men in
tend to organize without further de-
lay and fight the efforts of those be-
hind the anti-tobaccO movement.
Growers, dealers, buyers and bank
ers are interested in the plan to pre-
vent disaster to the tobacco trade,
Mr.. Spalding declared.
Emmett Orr, formerly Deupty U. S.
Marshal, is making tour of the If
ty-four Kentucky counties which
raise tobacco in the interest OF to-
bacco merchants.
Tobacco men, in planning their or
ganization, point to the bill intro
duced in the last session Of the Gen
eral Assembly of Georgia to prohibit
the use of tobacco in that State and
the legislation against cigarettes in a
number of States.

MAKING GRAFT OUT OF STATES
OLDEST MAN.

The old saying that There are
more ways to kill a dog than by
choking him to death with butter"
can be amended to include many
methods of obtaining money without
working for it. For instance
Under the pretense that the old
man was in debt and wanted to pay
off the mortgage on his mountain
home, several men brought John
Shell, claiming to be the oldest man
in the world, to Lexington, where
he was exhibited at the Blue Grass
Fair just like any out-of-the-ordinary
show freak, at fifteen cents per ex-
hibit. The men took in money by
the bushel, even if there is no such
thing as the oldest man" living, or
a man really as old as John Shell
claims to be. The same stunt will
be gone through with at the State
Fair at Louisville this week. At its
close these promoters will go home
with more money than they
could have hoped to obtain by hard
work, and John Shell will probably
get what the non-believer said about
missionary contributions: 1.-THE pro-
motors get ninety-five per cent, and
the heather will get the rest"

FORGER CLAIMS INVENTION OF
WONDERFUL DEVICE

While Grover Cleveland Jones, a
self-confessed forger, is serving a
three-year sentence in the peniten-
tiary. at Jefferson City, Mo-, a COM
pany of Springfield citizens will man
ufacture several inventions of his
which he says will protect banks alb
soIutely from burglaries and forgers.
Jones first came into the limelight
when he announced he had formed a
company to manufacture and market
an invention he has perfected for the
protection of banks against bur-
glaries.
The newest device that he has
evolved is designed to protect bank
ing houses and other similar institu-
tions from swindlers. The contriv-
ance is a secret machine for taking
photographs and finger prints of sus-
poets who may present bogus paper
at a bank window for payment. The
machine operates at the will of the
bank officials, but its operation is
totally unknown to the suspect, who,
according to Jones, can be photo
graphed and fingerprinted without
his knowledge.
81 am going to prove to the world
that have an invention of real
merit" said Jones. GAS am under a
three-years' sentence I shall have to
trust my invention to my partners,
but when my time expires / shall
return to Springfield, where both ma
chimes are to be manufactured. I ex-
pect to show to the world that l
cannot only invent, but that I can
live straight"

The "Almo Idea. "

Almo, Kentucky, a town OF 200
people, located in the western part
of the State, has invited four cities
much larger than itself to be pres
emit at a barbecue given by its citi-
zens. When we consider that Pa
ducah is one of these cities we real
ize the undertaking of the people of
Almo and wonder how they find it
worth while. The answer is found in
the days program which is to accom-
pany the feast of good things at the
barbecue. The program includes a
complete discussion of the relations
between the communities. Trade re-
lations, transportation, exchange of
products and, best of all, good roads
are to play part in the discussion
of the day.
We believe the "Almo idea" a
good one and one well worthy of i'm
itation. There is too little Of coop
GRAFTON and too much of jealousy and
treasuring of ancient ill-feeling be-
tween communities, towns and cities.

all business success. Better roads,

with Kentucky won Boone found
that by one of the twists of law, the
plot of ground he thought was his
was not his at ALL" says William
Heyliger in concluding an article on
Daniel Boone" in Boys Life, the Off
cial magazine of the Boy Scout or
ganization. almost like penni-
less outcast he moved to Virginia, but
when fresh tales came to him of land
to the west of the Mississippi, then
called Louisiana, his sixty-one years
did not deter him from risking a
fresh start. In 1875 he established
himself near the present city of St.
Louis and took what he thought was
a deed to land; but in 1903, when
this territory passed from Spain to
the United States, he found this
claim worthless.
But now the American people
were awakening to a Relation of
what Boone's leadership in Kentucky
had meant to the nation. Congress
granted him $50 acres of land. There
in the West, free from want, he pass
ed his last days. twenty-five years
after his death, his remains were

We can well take the lesson of
Almo to heart and formulate some
plans to put their ideas into prac.

WAR SAVINGS STAMP CAMPAIGN
FOR SEPTEMBER.

The Savings Division, War Loan
Organization of Kentucky, has
launched a campaign for September
throughout the State for the sale of
$125,000 Treasury Savings Certifi-
Gates. This is the quota that the
Eighth Federal Reserve District of
the Treasury Department has allotted
to Kentucky, and Savings officials
hope to do even better with this al
lotment than they did with the one
given them for the last two weeks of
August.
The report of the sale of the Treas
ury Certificates shows that the pub
lie is beginning to see the great
value that can be obtained from the
purchase of these Government Sc
curities. During the last two weeks
of August the Treasury Department
asked Kentucky to sell $4,000 in
Treasury Certificates. The result
was that the State went far ahead of
the set quota selling $114,600 in the
Securities.
Inquiries received by the Savings
Division, of the War Savings Stamps
in the State Offices in the Columbia
Building, Louisville, show that pros
pective buyers are keenly interested
in the offer made by the Government.
These Treasury Savings Certifi-
Gates are issued in denominations of
500 maturity value, and $1,000 and
can be bought at any pOstoftice, in
corporated banks or trust companies
who are qualified agents of the Sec
ond class for the sale of War Saw
ings Stamps, series of 1919. The
Certificates are issued in registered
form only. They bear interest at
i4% per annum compounded quarterly
and mature January 1, 1924. They
are redeemable prior to maturity af-
ter ten days written demand and
surrender of the Certificates to the
office of the Secretary of the Treas
ury.
War Savings Certificates filled
with twenty War Saving Stamps
series of 1919, may be exchanged fol
Treasury Savings Certificates in the
denomination of 500 and ten such
War Savings Certificates may be ex-
changed for Treasury Savings Ger
! tificates in the denomination OF 81
900.
Representatives of the Savings
Division of Kentucky are now calling
on the limit members of the State
asking them to grasp the unusual
opportunity and buy Savings Certi
ficates. Reports received show they
are getting good results.
This quota does not include the or
binary sale of War Savings Stamps
and the indications point to the State
having a big sale of Certificates.

FRANKFORT MAN HAS REMARK
ABLE VEGETABLE WONDER

M. D. Coyle has growing in his
garden on Clinton street, in Frank
fort, a curiosity in the way of veg
etable, and a stranger in these parts.
1t is an Australian butter bean, or
gigantic New Guinea butter bean.
The vine is some forty or fifty feet
in length and the beans it is bearing
run from six inches to two or three
feet in length and weigh from one to
fifteen pounds. The beans are to be
cooked like an egg plant and one will
furnish meal for whole family.
Mr.. Coyle sent to California for the
seed and they sent him six for half
dollar. Should this variety of bean
become popular as a diet good sized
trellis will be necessary to accommo-
date the vines.

MIR. FARMER KNOWS A THING
OR TWO.
Detroit Free Pressl

~S0(
Lambasting the packers, railing at
the middlemen, and excoriating the
retailer of foodstuffs is the general,
if not always popular, pastime in
these days Of excessive cost of eat
ing. And while all this is taking
place attention is distracted from a
figure standing on the side lines and
alternately cheering the scrappers
and turning aside to indulge in a
well-warranted laugh at the manner
in which he is made beneficiary,
quite unwittingly, by the warning
factors. This is the producer, who
in the general melee manages to get
at least a portion of his share of the
proceeds.
Time was when one could drive
into the country and pick up load
of farm products at a material saving
over what was exacted for them in
town. Dwellers in urban communi-
ties were proper objects of envy on
the part of less fortunate cityites.
Now all is changed. The man who
seeks to stretch the understood dollar
in this manner is given the apportu-
nifty of paying the farmer, at his own
gate, the same price he would be
asked in town. If the customer raises
ever so slight a question, the daily
newspaper is brought out, and the
markets in the nearest big center are
quoted. If the paper of that day or
the one just previous is not available
the telephone puts the producer in
touch with a dealer in town, who fur
nishes the current figures. There is
no haggling. 1t is case of take or
leave, for there will be other pur-
chasers. because the producer no
longer suffers from the isolation that
existed prior to the coming Of the au-
tomobile. the motor truck, good
roads. rural free delivery, the daily
newspaper and other agencies OF
like value to him.
Your agriculturists can quote the
market prices of the day before In
every large center in his part OF the
country with a facility that would
make a commission merchant envi'
tous. And he gets those prices. He
} is his own middleman and retailer
when it comes to dealing with the in
dividual.
In common with everybody else
the producer of foodstuffs is entitled
to all he can get for his wares. Bu'
the facts in the case, which can cas-
lily be established by anyone who has
any doubts, give rise to the belief
that as against the ultimate consum
er the producer is not so sorely op
pressed as some of his class would
have us believe. Also, the very facil
tiles for keeping in touch with the
outside world that have emancipatet
the agriculturist render it just thai
much harder for the wage-earner tt
make both ends meet.

ANT-TOBACCO CAMPAIGN NOW

The Cynthiana Democrat has the
following, which is an indication OF
what the world refOrmers" are
liable to do soon:
1.-The State w. c. T. U. has opened
campaign against tobacco, cigar
cites the first objective. The cam
paign for the present will be confin-
ed to education, but the next Legis-
lature will be asked to pass a bill
prohibiting the manufacture and sale
of cigarettes. Should this succeed,
the next step will doubtless be the
elimination of cigars and chewing to-
bacco, then the planting and sale of
the weed. Think this is pipe
dream? That's what you thought
about prohibition of intoxicating
liquors. If the people of Kentucky
want to save tobacco they must
"show" the politicians, and lose no
time about it,

RAPTISTS REVERT 10 OLD Gus
TOM.

It's old-fashioned to pray, did you
say?
Well then the 100000 Baptists in
the South plead guilty to the charge
of being Old-fashioned for they be-
lieve in prayer-prayer in the
churches, prayer around the family
altar, and prayer in the places Of
secret devotion.
Not all of them have fully prac-
ticed their belief as to prayer all the
time, heretofore, but prominent on
the program of the Baptist IS Mil
lion Campaign for September is the
place given to prayer. This month
has been designated as Intercession
Month and through September and
the remainder of the campaign as
we'll, every Southern Baptist is urg-
ed to devote much time to earnest
communion with God as a prepare
ton for the work that will need to
be done to put the campaign over.
While September "a has been desig-
mated as a day of special prayer and
practical fasting throughout the
Southern States the people are asked
to begin praying in earnest before
that time and continue doing so af-
terward in order that they may be
able to ascertain Gods will for them
in this campaign and then obey that
will fully.
Time was when it was popularity
considered proper to commune with
God at regular intervals.
The restoration of prayer to
prominent place in the lives of Bap-
lists and Christians generally is one
of the by-products which those 1den
titled with this campaign hope viii
result from 1T.
