Produce Review

Butter prices show some improve
ment during the week; there appears
ITO be liberal demand from retail
ers for current use.
Fresh eggs are generally selling
at lower prices in the large con-
Stunning centers, due to increased re-
ceipts in producing territories.
Heavier receipts will probably cause
further reduction in selling and pay
ing prices.
Poultry movement has been near
ly normal and paying prices have
shown but little change during the
week. Also, hens have not been alb
sorbed by the market as fast as re-
ceived and the surplus stock has
been put in storage for later use.
In view Of the lower prices on
other food products, it is expected
that fowl will not sell as well as
other grades Of poultry.

this second soaking an orange wood
stick with its tip swathed in abb
sorbent cotton dipped in bleach
should be gently passed under the
nail to remove what dirt and for
eign matter may have lodged under
it. In doing this, great care should
be taken not to injure the cuticle.
The emery board is then used the
same way as the file, but to remove
the rough edges Of the skin, like
hang nails, etc.
To push back the cuticle take the
flat end of an orange wood stick.
IL the skin does not come away
readily, you may use the cuticle
scissors, but great care should be
taken not to injure the nail as this
is likely to leave ridges and scars,
which will take weeks to grow out,
and which may even leave perma-
nent Disagreement.
A second application Of bleach all
over the nail is often a good thing
before the final polishing. After this
nlace both hands in the wafer once
more, freeing them from bleach and
other matter.
Having dried the hands thorough
ly they may then be polished and if
desired they may be treated first
with a touch Of pink paste or liquid.
The hands may be kept in better
condition if anything is avoided

green and red were used and gold
and silver paints.
1t is afar cry from those ages
to the much simpler methods in
vogue in our manicure parlors. But
certainly when beauties of the olden
times took such pains to make their
hands attractive we should at least
realize what crime it is to have
rough skin, broken nails, and over
grown cuticle, and how silly it is to
believe one is dressed up, when the
hands have no. received their share
of attention.
There are so many excellent out
fits for the care of the nails, that
any young woman with ordinary
dizziness and good sense may keep
them in first class condition.
The first thing to bear in mind
is that the use of the scissors is
unnecessary in shortening the nails
as it tends to thicken them and-to
render them less beautiful. If they
are filed little every two or three
days they will remain the proper
length without resorting to such a
brutal method.
Before using the file the hands
should be Immersed for few min
utes in a bowl of warm water to
soften them. Do not file the nail
too ahort. It should extend a trifle
beyobd the finger tips.
I'll hands should then be placed
in h water a second time and after

BURLEY GROWERS TO ASK
GRADUATION TAX SCALE

AZ resolution protesting against
the proposed addition to six cents a
pound to the government tax on
manufactured tobacco without grad
uation Of the tax scale OF conform to
the values of the various grades of
tobacco was unanimously passed at
general conference of tobacco
growers Of Central Kentucky at
Lexington Thursday afternoon.
Copies Of the resolution were trans
mitted to Representatives Campbell
Cantrill, King Swope, Arthur Rouse
and William Fields, and Senators
Beckham and Stanley.
It was explained at the confer
ence that the growers are not OPP
posing an increase in revenue from
tobacco, but that they want the tax
burden to be borne by the better and
more valuable grades. The resolu-
ton, which was introduced by Joe
C. VanMeter, Of Fayette county, is
as follows:
eve note that the Secretary Of
the Treasury has recommended to
Congress an additional six cents a
pound tax on all manufactured to-
bacco. The present tax Of Is cents
a pound is at present 600 per cent
of the prices obtained by the pro-
Queer for certain grades. An addi-
tional six cents would make it 800
per cent.
"The manufacturer claims that it
renders it impossible to pay pres
ent tax of Is cents a pound ON their
manufactured product and compete
with cheap tobaccos produced in the
foreign countries. They are, there
fore, not buyers for certain grades
of our tobaccos which necessarily
comprise a large per cent of any
crop Of Burley.
"Therefore, be it resolved by the
tobacco growers, as represented at
this meeting, that our Congressman
and United States Senators be re-
spectfully requested and urged
to use their best efforts in Congress,
not only to prevent the levy of this
additional tax on low grades Of to-
bacco, but to secure a graduation
of the tax now imposed"
The marketing company plan
formulated by directors of the Bur-
ley Tobacco Growers Association,
bankers, warehousemen, farmers
and redryers was approved at the
conference. Further action will be
taken on it at a meeting of the ex-
ecutive association Friday morning.
There appears to be little doubt that
the company, which was explained
in full in last week, will begin opera
tons with the opening of the market
in Lexington January 8.
Agreements signed Thursday by
many tobacco growers read as fol-
lows: Tn consideration of similar
subscriptions made by others, the
undersigned hereby subscribe for -
shares of the preferred stock
of the par value of one dollar each
in corporation to be organized under
