Russians on Way to Paris.

Representatives of the various Rus
sian governments, with the excep-
ton of the bolshevik, are now at
Paris or on their way here to advo-
cate their claims before the peace
conference. Sergius SeZonoff. the
former foreign minister in the old
regime, now representing the Kuban
and Omsk governments: NJ. Tschaikov-
sky, president of the northern repub-
Ic; exPremier Lvoff and Boris Bakh-
metef and other ambassadors of the
Kerensky government are among the
prominent emissaries to the confer
EN- ". But thus far no Russian gov
eminent has been recognized
There are three main proposals be-
fore the conference regarding the
Russian policy. The first advocates
vigorous intervention and the over
throw of the bolsheviki.
The second advocates, by every 9TH
er means than the dispatch of troops,
assistance to the elements in Russia
fighting for democracy and order
against the bolsheviki, with the OBJ
ject of contributing to the restora-
ton of normal conditions in the
peripheral regions of Russia, and to
encourage the populations of the CEN
trail regions still under boishevik
omfnation to an effort to obtain sim
liar conditions.

arnment. the withdrawal of the troops
Of the associated powers and an at
tempt to reach working agreement

though the formal recognition of the
Dolsheyiki is not held to be necessary.
Under the third proposal, the asso-
ciated powers would attempt to sup
ply Russia with food and other ur-
gent necessaries and assist in the re-
organization of transportation, indus
try and commerce, provided the boil
sheviki would guarantee to discon-
tinue their attacks on their neighbors,
refrain from molesting allied sympa-
thizerS and cease terrorism.

HOOVER WON'T DISCUSS FOOD
QUESTION WITH GERMANS

Food Administrator Hoover, In
Europe arranging relief for the peo-
pies of the war-devaStated territories
has refused in emphatic terms to
discuss German food conditions with
Barren Won Der Lancken and DR..
Rieth. who sought a meeting with
the Food Administrator.
A message from Paris said these
two German officials, who were
prominent in the German administra-
ton of Belgium, wired from Berlin
to Walter Lyman Brown, Director of
the Commission for relief in Belgium
at Rotterdam, that they had been ap-
pointed by the German Government
to negotiate with Mr.. Hoover for food
supplies, and that they desired Mr..
Hoover to advise them when and
where he would meet them.
In answer to a request for a con
ference, Mr.. Hoover sent this mes
sage:
"You can describe two and hall
years of arrogance toward ourselves
and cruelty to the Belgians in an!
language you may select, and tel
that pair personally to go to hel
with my compliments. If l do have
to deal with Germany it will not b.
with that pair"

FIVE THOUSAND 70 DEM0BILIZE
AT CAMP TAYLOR.

Five Thousand troops are expect
ed to arrive at Camp Zachary Taylor
within ten days for rehabilitation.
1t is believed that among them will
be the 13Sth Field Artillery, formerly
the old 1st Kentucky Regiment. Just
who the others will be is not known
They probably will not arrive until
after January 1. y
The number of troops expected is
based upon the number of railroad
cars at debarkation points which are
assigned to Camp Zachary Taylor. A.
N. Dutton, agent for the Railroad
Administration at the cantonment,
figures that ten trainloads Of 500 men
each will come in within ten days
and so notified the camp authorities
Wishing to be able to meet any
emergency or demand made the nil
litary officials are speeding up demob-
ilization, clearing out men to make
further room for those that may
come in. 1t had been intended thai
during the holiday period between
Christmas and New Year that onl!
about $50 casuals from other sta
lions would be mustered out daily
However, Maj. Russell j. Ryan, de
mobilization officer, will increase thi
to about $50. This can be accom-
plished without much effort, as MOI
than $500 have been let out in
Isingle day.

Prays for Red Hair.

At religious meeting In Pennsyl-
vania youth asked the prayers Of the
pastor and people in order that he
might become redheaded. 1t seems
that his hair was of yellowish-white
shade that was no color at all. He had
heard the red heads were good scrap
pers, and he was praying the Lord to
give him red hair so that he might 60
forth to fight the kaiser. There's
something in this, too, and there's an
idea abroad that regiment of auburn
haired Amazons could put crimp In
the Prussians quicker than a whole d.
vision of mere chocolate-haired men.

Miles NJ. Logan, of Louisville, for
merly of Brownsville, who recently
resigned. The position was offered
tc w. v. Gregory, of Mayneld, county
Judge of Graves county, but he de-
clined, saying that as he had been re-
elected to that office he felt that he

that position to become the first head
of the tax commission, held the office
less than two years, during which
he succeeded in having the General

Meat Increase
At TINE NEEDED.
Producers Responded Nobiy
When Demand Was Shown
to Them.
CATTLE AND HOG FIGURES.
Government Justified IN Pork Policy
Which Nov Provides Chief SIP
ply to Meet Three Billion
Pound Fat Shortage.
CATTLE AND HOG FIGURES.

In lire with the general plan Of con-
servation formulated by the o. s. Food
Administration Immediately following
the entrance Of the United States into
the war the contribution made BY the
meat producers Of this country to the
war program is Of particular signifi-
canoe. as 1t demonstrates the hearty
co-operation accorded the Food Ad-
ministration by the meat producers OF
the country.
According to reports Of the o. s.
Department of Agriculture, there was
an increase in cattle Of 10,23S.O 600 head
and 12,441 900 hogs, these figures COM
piled to January last. In the same
period there was a decrease of $4,000
head Of sheep, but indications are this
decrease will show an increase follow
ing the latest reports. ~ 81
Since January / unofficial informa-
ton indicates an increase In hogs OF
| not less than eight per cent. and not
more than fifteen per cent. compared
with one year ago, with an increase In
| average weight.
| Following the request Of the Food
| Administration for increase In hog
production for the fall Of 1918 and the
spring of 1919 the increase may yield
not less than 1,6O0,OO0,O0O pounds
more Of pork products than were
available last year. Without this IN
crease the shipping program arranged
In f006
products would have been impossible.
The dressed hog products during the
three months ending September 30,
1917, amounted to eO3, 600 pounds,
while for the same months of 1918 the
production was 1,277. $50, 600 pounds,
an increase of over 3T4,OOO,000 pounds
for the quarter. 81. ,.,., so -
During the same period In 1917 In
spected slaughter records OF dressed
beef showed 1928, 100000 pounds as
against 1,454,OOO,OO0 pounds for the
three month period ending September
1, this year.
We must increase our meat ship
ments, especially our pork products
to meet the added demands OF the mil
lions liberated from German opprcs
sion. And at the same time we must
look forward to the rehabilitation OF
: the European meat herds. The policy
e which guided our meat program in the
past year has been fully justified, fol
: only the heavy pork production which
: It has brought about will enable u;
: even partly to satisfy the increased
demands on us for the coming year
There will be a world shortage In fats
and It Is to the United States that Eu
rope must look to supply Its defcien
! cy. AT the same time there will con
tinue to be heavy demands for beef
Owing to the limited refrigerator ship
ping capacity European imports o
9 beef for some time will be limited
The United States, Australia ant
} Argentine will be able to maintain {
o supply that will keep all ayailabi

Chance Discoveries.

Some of the finest friendships have
grown out of the chance circumstances
that have thrown men together for the
moment. Some Of the greatest dlscoy-
cries have been due to the fortunate
disclosures of llfe's incidentals. Much
Of self-discovery is the direct product
of the unlocked for. Science has been
made rich by the fortunate combine
tions of accidentals whose meanings
have been caught by observant men.
And the great fact remains that most
of them have been paraded before men
through the ages, to be discovered only
now. And the ages to come will won

present age when they have harnessed

of the accidental throws them out OF

life. So many fellows lose their

Trouble in any quarter seems TO fash

and newspaper men. Even Jack
Keans, manager fthe challenger,
looked astonished when the beam pass
ed over the 200 mark He announc-
ed yesterday Dempsey would scale
about 1875 pounds.
The challenger's poundage was con-
siderableof a jolt to admirers of viii
lard. who had claimed that Dempseys
hard work under scorching sun
would likely burn him out and send
him into the ring against the champ
ion around 1870 pounds.
Dempsey appeared to be in perfect
condition when he jumped on the
scales There was not an ounce of
surplus flesh on his body, which has
been burned to copper color as a
