We found Mr.. Herman V. Shively.
the Jeweler, busy. In fact he told US
that he could not attend to his bust
ness from a. M, to p. M, all the
time he had under the fuel law. He
carries most inviting stock for the
holidays.
We made diligent inquiry for our
steadfast friend, J. E. Gowdy, and
we're told that he was out, selling
stock in his Blue Lick Spring, from
which water that cures all ailments
Of men flow.
We met the younger member OF the
firm OF 1. K. Miller & Son, who are
extensive wheat growers and dealers
in blooded cattle. This firm grows
moro fine variety of wheat and raises
more fine stock than any of their
brother farmers and stock dealers of
Taylor county. The fact is, 1. K.
Miller & Son have stimulated other
tillers OF the soil by their methods,
and there is much ibetter grade of
stock in Taylor than was there before
they became cieizens of the county.
While Main street has many attrac--
tive business houses, the resident part
of Campbellsville is simply beautiful.
We do not know of town of its size
that has as many beautiful homes,
all the lawns being exceedingly at
tractive
The popular firm Of Buchanan Lyon
Company continues to do an immense
business, wholesale and retail. A
large force of statesmen are employed
and they are constantly busy. This
firm are agents for the Ford machine
and it does not receive them from the
factory as fast as it can sell them.
In this connection here is little sto-
~ about the Ford: A minister was
preaching, and"-he took occasion to
speak OF auto riding after night. He
said that the Ford car was sending
more girls to hill than any other
agency in the world" An old sister
in the congregation halloosd "Amen "
When the minister concluded he went
to the old saint in Isreal and said:
"Why sister, l do not understand you
You cried, amen when 1 said the
Ford car was sending more girls to
h. II than any other agency, What did
you mean?" "Well," said the old la
dy. they tell me it matters not where
the Ford car takes you, it will be sure
to bring you back"
We found the two printing offices
busy with job work, and the force at
each establishmenttin fine spirits:
We dined at the New Merchant Ho-
tel shook the hand Of our friend,
Miss Allene Meader, who happened to
be present, and left for home.

to their superlors in this city that since
the adoption oc>prohlbition in the United
States there is a constantly increasing
traffic in the smuggling of opium and
marihuana from Mexico. The state OF
Sonora is said TO be the centre OF this

u. S. REFINERS BUY
NEW, CROP SUGAR
Enter RaW Market for Next
Years Requirements.

Lamborn & Co.. under date of Octo-
Der 81, comment as follows on the Gu
ban sugar situation:
The entry Of American refiners into
the raw market for the purpose of COW
ering next years requirements has been
the chief feature 10 the sugar market
during the week. 1t Is estimated that
both New York and outport refiners have
purchased approximately 100, 900 tons Of
new crop Cubas for shipment from jan
uary to June.
The Sugar Equalization Board has
advised renners that it believes that It Is
10 the interest OF the country for refiners
to purchase as seem in their judgment
wise, and that the price OF refined sugar
should represent the cost of raws plus a
proper refining margin. This is practi-
cal assurance that the Sugar .Equaliza-
ton Boards control will cease at the end
of this year. In fact, Washington adj
vices state that the Sugar Equalization
Board has telegraphed Senator McNary,
in charge OF the Senate sugar investiga-
ton, that II was preparing to wind up
Its activities in view OF the inability to
obtain sufficient sugar from Cuba to
warrant further Government control.
The market for new crop Cubas has
continued strong and active during the
week, with New York. Philadelphia and
New Orleans refners purchasing about
100000 tons at prices ranging from sue.
c. and T.. January shipment to New Or
leans down to a basis equivalent to TIC.
I. o. b. for February. March. April, May
and June shipments. On Thursday 5000
tons February March shipment were sold
&c Spectator at 7Sc. T. o. b. AT the
close offerings are small. with January
available at SIC. and February and
later positions offered at INC. e. o. b.
Canadian refiners early in the week pur-
chased about lao. 900 bags at 7hc.f. O. b,
March TO June shipment
Advices from Criba as regards the old
crop state that the Equalization Board
has made arrangements to carry ALI SUI
gar left on the island with the exception
OF $4,000 tons. The stock in Cuba is
steadily decreasing and Is now only
Sls,546 tons, One central continues 10
grind old crop cane, and it is expected
that this central will continue grinding
right into the new crop.
