TOBACCO MARKET OPENS
WITH RECORD PRICES
Burnley Sill AS High As $50 Per
Hundred and PRIOR Brings
As Much As $50.

nc pTeeH HlNtT loDdCCO market
opened in Owensboro Monday morn
ing with some of the highest prices
ever paid for tobacco in Western
Kentucky. The market was con-
sidered at least IS higher than on
the opening day in December, 1918.
1t is the opinion of those who fol-
lowed the morning sales closely that
the general average of the day
would be between SIS and $40.
When the sales opened at the
L. jlcaster house in the eastern divi-
sion and Field Brothers in the west
orn division, it was estimated that
100000 pounds of tobacco were
on the seven loose leaf floors, and
tobacco was still coming to Owens
boro.
The highest price paid for dark
tobacco was SIS for leaf, which was
sold at the Lee Birk house. There
were several loads of Pryor in which
leaf sold from $40 to $50. The top
price on Burley leaf was $50 and
Burley trash $62, both sold at the
Lancaster house.
The Lancaster house sold 44,410
pounds of Burley that made an av-
erage of $34.3S. This brought S15.-
263.24. Two baskets of trash sold
for S5l and $50, while two baskets
of leaf brought $40 and $50 On
Burley sales j. A. Toler, of Lewis
port, made an average of $56.41;
Jesse Knox, of Lewisport, made an
average of SAP, and C. T. Perkins,
Maceo, made an average of SASHA.
The Lancaster house had not fin
ished it's sale at noon hour, but will
sell about 100000 pounds of Pryor
tobacco. Mr.. Bentley, manager al
this house. Expressed the UPiHiUn
that his average for the day will he
closed at $50.
Capt. w, T. Ellis sold basket of
Pryor trash for $3.50 per 100
pounds.
At the Daviess County house
about 10000 pounds are on the
foor and there are about $4,000
pounds on the floor of the Equity
Home house, which will be sold in
the order named.
Field Brothers completed their
sale of about 10000 pounds. In
this lot there were about $1,000
pounds of tailends or what is known
as the last cuttings" There were
very few reflections.
Mr.. Field stated that his sale
was a most satisfactory one, and
some high prices and average were
obtained No official figures could
be scured, but some leaf sold as
high as $50, while Tugs brought
$34. Trash sold as high as $17.25.
A. r. Pirtle, farmer living west OF
the city, received highest price at
this sale.
At the Lee Birk house, about 40
600 pounds were sold. This house
received SIS for a basket of dalS
leaf, the highest price paid for Pry-
or at any of the houses during the
morning sales. The Tugs sold for
S26.5Q and trash s2a Mr., Birk
had fine market ami was Pleased
with the prices that tobacco brought
at his house.
The West Ninth street house be-
gan its sale at 1880 O'Clock this af-
ternoon, with about 100000 pounds
OF weed on the floor. In this lot
some extra fine Burnley and Pryor is
found which will doubtless bring
high prices. This sale will not be
completed before 20 o'clock Tues
day morning, and will be followed
bv the sale at The Farmers Lu1se
Leaf house, which also has over
100000 pounds on the tioor.--Ow-

The State of Connecticut, which was
once known as the home of Sunday
blue laws, is beginning topart with her
old-time legal relics. There were sew
en- liberalizing Sunday bills introduced
into the assembly Of the legislature,
permitting the showing of moving
pictures on Sundays. At the hearings,
the only opposition which developed
to Sunday moving pictures came from
the clergy. Their principal argument
against the moving picture is that the
churches cannot compete in the bid
for patronage. So they want to COM
pei people to 60 to church on Sundays
instead Of to the moving picture
shows. This is the old way Of filling
church pews, but it is not Christ's way.

corrected by the uae of Doan's Kid

Mrs. Anderson Rnst, Ironton, says:

weak kidneys and was caused much
annoyance by too frequent passages
Of the secretions, especially at night.
I gave the child a lot of remedies but
with no benefit. Finally Doan's Kid

Campaign to Absorb $250,00O U. S,
Securities.

War Savings Societies in this state
are called upon by the United States
Treasury Department to perform a
task that should be easily accomplish
ed and be of lasting benefit to every
one concerned.
During the last two weeks in August
it is planned to dispose of S250,000
worth of the New Treasury Savings
Certificates in the 800 denomination
in the States of Missouri, Arkansas
and Kentucky.
The allotment as fixed by officials
of the War Savings Organization for
the Eighth Federal Reserve District
provides for sales of 1888, 900 each of
the two weeks in each state and $780,
600 for the city of st. Louis.
The members of each society were
sent letters requesting their aid in the
selling campaign. Each is asked in
towns where there is first or second
class post Office to find some member
or individual who will buy at least one
$100 Certificate. If the Certificates
are not at hand at the post Office, the
member is urged to use his influence
with the postmaster or bank to get
an Immediate supply.
In st. Louis almost full quota was
reached on the first day.
Inview of the exceptional value OF
the United States Security offered,
this first selling campaign ought to be
enormously successful. The securities
are the U. S. Governments direct
promise to pay on January 1, 1924, at
the rate Of four per cent compounded
quarterly. While the security is not
negotiable, or even transfer able, II
may be offered for redemption
at any time, and interest will be at
the rate of three per cent. It is an
absolutely safe investment.

Prepare Storage Space for Vegeta bles.

When plenty of feed is found on the
farm to winter the livestock, we think
we have found a forehanded farmer.
Perhaps the compliment should be
withheld until we take look about
the home to see how much food is
stored in the cellars, caves or pits to
winter the family; for it is easy to
store many of the vegetables and
root crops. The general principles
of vegetable storage applicable to
practically every crop which is likely
to be stored are stated by J. T. Rosa,
Jr., in Extension Circular So of the
University of Missouri College of
Agriculture They are: First, store
only vegetables in first class condition,
matured but not stale, from disease
and bruises, and which have not b cen
exposed to heating and willing.
Second, store vegetables before they
have been severely frosted. The
storage conditions must be right. The
temperature should be steady, and
for most vegetables it should remain
below so degrees. From 36 to 40 de-
grees gives best results with most
vegetables, especially with the root
crops other than sweet potatoes.
Ventilation must be provided, yet the
the atmosphere Of the storage place
shonld be kept rather moist to pre-
vent shriveling or willing.
The various means of storage and
the methods to be followed with the
more common garden crops are re-
ported in this circular, which may be
had free.

of nice sweet milk which all greatly
enjoyed. After dinner all again went
in swimming where several pictures
were taken. At late hour supper
was prepared and camp was broke.
After climbing the hill the crowd
rested at Mr.. Pannebecker's where
another picture of the crowd was
taken. Then all adjourned to the
parlor where a joyful evening was
spent around the piano. All agreed
that another fishing trip must be
taken soon. X.

The Whole Secret of
A Better Tire
Simply Matter of the Makers Policies
. Better Tire

To ascertain what each maker
offers one must analyze and test
some 200 tires-as our laboratories
have done.
Then it is a matter of combining
the best features and building ac-
cording to the highest standards.
Once you try a Brunswick you
will understand how we have built
model tires, regardless of factory
expense. i
Yet Brunswick Tires cost you the
same as other like-type tires. Our
saving is on selling cost, through
cur nationwide organization.
We realize that you expect more
from Brunswicks, and we assure
you that you get it. ONE Bruins
wick will tell you the story.
And then you'll want ALL
Brunswicks. No other tire, you'll
agree, gives SO much for your
money.

This you will realize - once you
try Brunswick-that a super-tire
is possible only when the name
certihes that the maker is follow
ing the highest standards.
For tire making is chiefly mat
ter Of standards and policies-cost
plus care. Any maker can build a
good tire if he cares to pay per-
fection's price.
All men know Brunswick stand
ards, for Brunswick products have
been famous for n years.
Formulas, fabrics and standards
vary vastly in cost. Reinforce-
ments, plies and thickness are a
matter of expense. And these vari-
ations affect endurance. It rests
with the maker how far he wishes
to go-how much he can afford
to give.
For there are no secrets nor pas
ents to hold one back.
