age. He was the son of George Wash
ington and Emily Perryman. He was
born and reared in Russell county
near Montpelier. He was the eldest
of family of ten children, 5 boys and
5 girls, of them have preceded him
to the land beyond. Three sisters re-
main and all three live in Texas. G..
W. Perryman, who became noted
Baptist preacher, and who died in

number of years, and taught one year

the civil war in the 18th KY. Calvary.
He was married to Miss Mary Bell
Pelley, Feb. II, 1876. He located at
Pellyton, this county, and remained
there to the end. Three children
we're born to this union, two sons and
one daughter. Luther, the eldest,
represented the county in the Legis.

second son, is now in Emery Univer-
sity finishing up his Theological course
and is preaching for church near by.

reader. and a man well informed on
the general topics of the day. He
made the race for County Superin.
tendent some years ago against Mat

Mr.. ]. P. Head, of King Mills, Ohio,
who recently bought farm near Sa-

by his wife and several sons and
daughters. From here they went to
their farm and will immediately per-
feet arrangements for raising poultry

be paying business. This enter

other farmers and farm wives to raise
for the market more chickens, there
by gathering more eggs which IS

FOUR SCORE
YEAR AND TEN.
Such was the Long Life Of Mr.. Ell.
zY Damron, Who Died at 10 q.
m, Monday at The Home
OF ]. a. Young.

To the older citizens of Adair coun.
ty the subj .ct of this writing was
well-known. He was reared on Green
river, and until few years ago he
followed trading and farming. His
residence was home for every per-
son who called, and he was never
known to charge man for lodging
and edibles, but gave every caller the
glad hand and was sorry to part from
any persons who visited his hospital
residence. -.-
Until recent years he was full of
life and delighted in telling jokes,
and when a crowd was around him it
was kept in an uproar for hours, and
to this day you can often hear younger
men relating an Ely Damron story.
The Lord was good to him. He had
been an unusually strong man, seldom
the slightest complaint coming from
him The 18th of last October he was
eighty-nine years old. He lost his
wife many years ago, but he reared
three daughters and one son.-Mrs J.
81. Young, this place, Mrs. L. T.Neat,
Russell Springs, and Mrs. Annie
Downtain, Oklahoma, Mr. Azure
Damron. who is in the West. He
loved his children and his children
we're exceedingly kind to him.
The end came at 10 o'clock Monday
morning, his children and grandchiId
rem being at his bedside.
The funeral services were conducted
at the Christian Church, of which the
deceased was member, by Ed. z. T
Williams this, Tuesday morning, al
10 O'Clock.
The interment was in the city GENE
terry, many friends were present.

Before and Since the War.

But few people know it, but never
theless it is fact, Adair county is in
better fix financially now than it was
before the war. For instance, before
this country entered into the foreign
war there were something close to
100000 on deposit in the four banks
Of AdaIr county, and while the war
was in progress the county bought
more than 100000 worth of Liberty
Bonds, Thrift Stamps and Red Cross
subscriptions, and TO, day there are in
the four banks something close to
$500, 700 on deposit, and the size of the
amounts in vaults are growing, the
employees of the banking institutions
busy from the opening until the clos.
ing.
This increase in cash capital has
come from the sale of mules, cattle,
hogs, poultry, eggs, butter, tobacco
and all other farm products. AS will
be readily seen the farmers have re-
allied good prices for everything grown
upon the farm, and at this, time the
producers are making preparations
for large crops the coming season.
In talking to a gentleman, the 9TH
er day, who watches closely the out
goings and the amounts coming in,
be said: "There are but few better
counties in the State than Adair. She
keeps her head above the level, and
at all times ready TO meet all just de.
mands with the cash. In the mean
time farm lands are advancing and
new corners are here weekly seeking
to buy homes. According to quality,
land is cheaper in Adair to-day than
any other county in the State"

Death Of a Little Child.

Creel, little four year old daugh-

last week and the interment was on
Tuesday. She was a victim of flu,
and her passing broughG great sorrow
to the home. Several other members
of the family, including her father,
were sick with the same disease at the
time the little daughter died. May
God comfort the distressed parents,
brothers and sisters, is the wish of
sympathizing friends.

Livestock on farms in Kentucky
January 1, 1919 was worth SIT, 396, 200
compared to $l58, 5s7 900 January 1,

ed numbers of all stock except horses,

was greatest on milk COWS and sheep.
Horses are very little more valuable
than in January 1918, the average
