PREDICTS BIG DEMAND FOB TO
BACC0 LAND.

With the opening of the loose leaf
tobacco market in this city in De-
cember, greater demand for farm
lands with unprecedented sales at
high prices is predicted by Paris
real estate men, who believe the
sales of farm lands will increase
throughout the year, since the de-
mand, especially for small tracts, is
very heavy.
Kentucky and other tobacco
growing States in the nation will
produce more tobacco in the coming
year because of the lessened produc-
ton in the European countries since
the world war, and internal troub-
les. Russia, Turkey and Mexico, all
producing a large amount of tobacco
annually, will yield nothing like
their normal production. Bourbon
county dealers believe the demand
for farm lands in both large and
small tracts will be very materially
Increased soon. These views meet
the approval of tobacco growers and
tenants, who have been approached
on the subject. When the annual
cropping" time comes around there
will be much speculation as to
"how many acres this timer"

SMOOTH CITIZEN WORKS ON
PUNCH BOARDS.

uervy young fellow succeeded
several days ago in getting the bet
ter of a number of punch boards
that are in operation around Paris.
THE Young fellow played a smooth
came with the result that he has,
or had. somewhere in his good
clothes the sum of $3.50 or more,
which he reaped as his share of the
game.
The mans scheme worked to per-
fection. He would saunter into one
of the soft drink stands where the
nunch boards were operated, stand
around a while, then casually take a
nrnch at the board. The numbers
he secured were kept in his posses
sion whether they won or not. In
this way he managed to secure a
large assortment of numbers. He
would then get the number on the
top of the board that denoted the
biggest prize, which in some instan-
ces, amounted to as high as $4,000.
He would leave the place, then re-
turn shortly afterward, and take sew
eral more punches at the board.
This time the number drawing the
capital prize would come out. The
Young fellow secured the money and
departed, leaving the printed num-
her behind him. A close inspection
developed the fact that he had cum
ningly and skillfully pasted a series
of numbers together until they cor
responded to the number calling fol-
the big prize. This program was
carried out at a number of places
and as yet, the proprietors haven't
succeeded in getting the young
mans number" as cleverly as he did

$41.4OO FOR COOPERATING

Kentucky farmers this year sold
332,00 pounds of wool through
farmers pools. Such pools were Or
ganized in twenty counties. These
farmers received 1914 cents pound
more for their wool than they would
have received had they marketed in
dividually. In other words, they
were paid s41.500 for organizing
these little associations to sell their
wool. That is how cooperative
marketing pays. Yet, some farmers
still say that there's nothin' to it,"
or that farmers won't stick to-
gether." 1t is awfully hard for some
folks to get new idea, or to give
up an old one, even when the old one
has proven all wrong.
