NeutraIIzed Poison Gas.

"Neutralizing ointment" is one OF
the latest war inventions. 1t is pub
licly revealed in an official description
of the protective devices against gas
attacks issued to our troops. The
mask, with its contained chemicals
for neutralizing any poisonous fumes
that creep in is familiar. But one So
called gas is liquid and because Of
its blistering effect the soldiers have
given 1t the name of mustard gas"
When an area Is drenched with the
stuff the menace may persist for many
days. The peril is not from the liquid
itself. Mustard gas burns through the
clothing, and makes painful wounds
where the flesh is reached. The newly
invented ointment must apparently be
rubbed all over the body, as well ms on
face and hands, to prepare the sol
dier when the enemy's bursting shells
are spraying this horrible gas about.

Washington, Aug. 20.-No official
announcements are being made of how
the United States government intends
TO handle the bandits nuisance in
northern Mexico. from this point on,
but there is every evidence that all
preparations have been made to meet
future depredations with swift
movement of troops such as now is be-
ing conducted against the desperadoes
who held the two army aviators for
ransom.
Swift moving cavalry, fully equip
ped with machine guns and guided by
airplanes, II is understood, will be re-
lied upon, and will be prepared to
move quickly from strategic points
along the border of the bandit country
on the Rio Grande.
Organization of the border guard to
insure the greatest speed in these
movements has been completed, the
cavalry regiments being so distributed
as to place the nucleus of flying col
umn at carefully selected points along
the Rio Grande.
Movement of troops of the Eighth

new plan, according to officials, and

GIVING INCOME TAX PAYERS
ANOTHER CHANCE.

In order to give taxpayers an OPP
portunity to make out returns imme-
diately on the closing of books for
the year 1919, when accurate knowl-
edge Of their accounts is fresh in the
minds, plans for issuance early in
December of forms for filing income
and excess profit tax returns are be-
ing made by the Bureau of Internal
Revenue. The period fir filing is
January / to March Is, 1920.
The normal rate of tax for 1919 is
per cent. on the first $4,000 above
exemptions and 8 per cent. on the
remaining net income, instead of 6
and II per cent. respectively, the tax
for 1918.
Surtax rates, which range from 1
per cent. on the amount of net in
come between $4,000 and $4,000 to
SIS per cent. of the amount by which
the net income exceeds $1,000,00O,
and the exemptions of $1,000 for
single persons and $4,000 for mar
ried persons and heads of families
remain unchanged.

TELLS FARMERS TO KEEP THEIR
KENTUCKY MARES.

F. E. Allison, prominent horse
and mule buyer of Chattanooga,
Tenn, was in Bourbon and adjoining
counties the past week, looking for
some good animals to take back to
the Southern markets. Mr.. Allison
told some of the local stock men that
the country faces a horse and mule
famine. While here he secured
number of good animals which he
had shipped back to his home in the
South.
He says that the best thing the
farmers of the Bluegrass region can
do is to keep their good trotting or
big saddle bred mares from which
to raise mules. He says that mules
out of Western mares are not giving
satisfaction in the South. They lack
gameness, he says, and can easily be
discovered in any bunch of hybrids
that have been in the South for any
length of time. He was emphatic in
his statements that mules out of
Western mares will not do in the
South.

GOVERNOR BLACK ~ ISSUES
THANKSGIVING PROC
LAMATfON

Gov. Black issued his annual
Thanksgiving proclamation, as fol-
lows:
Thanksgiving day is a day for
spiritual and material inventory.
A day for prayer and reverent
thankfulness and appreciation. One
to pause from our varied occupa-
tional activities and to make a devo-
tional survey of the blessings which
an ever watchful Providence has be-
slowed upon the people of our ma.
ton and State.
Although there linger with us
diStresses and unrest touches the
worlds heart because of the TRACE
dies of the recent war, yet patient
men and women have not forgotten
that God is the giver of all good and
perfect gifts.
with them, hope sees our coun-
try emerging, under the providen-
ces of God, from the unequaled
troubles of the immediate past, to
accentuate and emphasize it's supe-
rior achievements. The last twelve
months have been replete with evil
dences of Gods watchful care over
us. Honest effort finds the earth re-
spending with plenteous harvests,
and mine and shop yielding helpful
sustenance and prosperity.
"Our patriotism has been exalted
by our sacrifices, our charity glori-
fed by unstinted help to the less
fotunate. The comforts of the
home multiplied. Churches and
schools are fiourishing. The respect
for law and order, an indispensable
requisite of the civilized state, has,
under very trying circumstances,
been strengthened, the love of free
institutions broadened, and the
moral and educational growth of the
national character quickened.
''Of all these benefits Kentucky
citizenship has generously shared.
Therefore I, James d. Black,
Governor of Kentucky, hereby pur-
suant to a custom hallOwed by time
and rooted in the traditions of our
people, designate Thursday, Novem-
Der 81, 1919, the day mentioned by

giving in this State, and l invite my

show since 1914, because of the
war.
ALREADY the entry list is large,
with the very best corn growers IN
the country competing for the $10,-
900 in prizes offered by the Chi
cago Board of Trade.
In addition to the corn which will
be on display from the various
States, fourteen agricultural col
leges will have exhibits of an edu-
cational nature.
One of the special features will
be miniature farm. This will be a
complete layout of a farm, showing
the number of cattle, hogs, sheep,
horses, chickens, etc., that an aver
age cornbelt farm can proftably
carry. 1t also will show good
good crop rotation, with the farm
all laid so as to save labor and in
crease the efficiency of the operator.
Judging from the many entries of
corn, oats, wheat and all kinds of
hay now being received, the show
this year will far surpass that of
previous years. The corn and small
grain growers not only are interest
ed, but the hay producers, who are
given an opportunity to show what
they can do, will be at the show in
force.

be selected from corn that was put

the corn on the stalk has been dam
