CREASE IN VALUE.
Increase Greatest in Tobacco
Producing Sections. Wages
for Farm Labor Increases.

Office OF Field Agent 500 Custom
House. Farm land values in Kentucky
as a whole have increased approx
imately II per cent in the last year,
according to the March agricultural
report issued here by the Kentucky
Office OF the United States Bureau of
Crop Estimates. In the same time
farm land values in the United States
as a whole have increased approx
imately 20 per cent.
The increase in Kentucky has been
greatest in the tobacco producing sec
tons, amounting in many instances
to wild speculation and imitation in
the richest Blue Grass counties, and to
very great increases in the richer sec
tons Of Western Kentucky,
Good pillow lands and improved
farms in both Kentucky and the en-
tire United States show not only
greater increase in value in dollars
per acre than does poor pillow land or
unimproved farm land, but also show
greater percentages of increase in
value per acre.

Chicago, March 23-Several thou
sand dentists, in attendance on the
convention of the State Dental Society
heard these words in an address to-
day from DR.. V. H. Fuqua, president
of the Chicago Dental Society.
There's a wave of tooth-pulling in
this country. We must put stop to
it. It's on account of the X-ray. The
X-ray is adjustable. You can read any
thing into it. People get an X-ray
taken and rush down and have their
teeth pulled We are fast becoming a
Nation of dental cripples. Too many
teeth are being pulled
People place too much reliance up
on the physicians diagnosis. The
physician says, Go get your teeth
pulled; your lumbago is caused by the
toothache.' and the patient rushes and

And we find in the one the same cos

developed anything like peculiarly
American religious life, a peculiarly
American type OF religious express
sion and organization. The blending
process is not yet finished.
The melting pot is still bubbling
and boiling merrily away We hope
sooner or later to- draw forth from
1t distinctive American character
and distinctive American civiliza-

American religion, il il ever comes
at all. will be one of the last products
to emerge from that melting pot.
Our religion in the last two CEN
turtles has gradually become more and
more socialized. Without relinquish-
ing its interest in the individual it
has enlarged its horizon so as to
embrace within it's interest the whole
society
THAT development has been COM

social iniquity today makes not only
the Methodist Christian blush with
shame, but it makes the Baptist and
the Presbyterian and the Episeopalian
Christian blush just the same, and
the Unitarian Christian more than any
Of them. That thought of a socialized
religion is full of promise and hope
for the future.
For when great variety of Chris

are all working for the same end, not
only in Heaven, but on earth, not
only to save private souls, but to
make America here and now better,
cleaner, nobler and more generous, a
kingdom of God upon earth, there is
bound to creep into the hearts OF
those various Christians a deep sense
of their essential Christian oneness

Plow Land Increases.

Since March 1, 1919, good pillow land
in Kentucky, considering all parts OF
the State together. has increased from
an average price of $4,000 to $4,000
at present; poor pillow land from
$1,000 to $42 o.; average of all pillow
land from Sol 90 to $40 90; average
of all improved farm land from $S1.00
to $500: and the average of all UNI
improved farm land from $4,000 to
So 90 all acre The comparatively
small increase shown in value of UNI
improved and poor lands gives by
comparison a partial though made
quate idea of the extent to which the
boom has been pushed in the richer
sections
During the same time average land
values for the United States as a
whole have increased as follow; good
pillow land increased from an average
of $91 SO to S113.34; poor pillow land
from $5126 to $6O.76; average price
of all plow land from S74.31 to $90.01
improved farm land from $S1.S9 to
5000; and unimproved farm land
from $62.0S to $74.41.
Wages for farm labor have increas-
ed greatly in the last year not only
in Kentucky but throughout the
United States, yet it is still difficult
to get satisfactory or adequate labor

BY Steven Schatz.

I wonder why boys crave exercise,
And kick a large football,
But when their parents bid them work
They don't need exercise at all.
I wonder why.
I wonder why girls at school
Can sit and talk all day,
Then, when the teacher calls them up,
They haven't word to say.
wonder why.
/ wonder why young ladies,
Are so trim on the street,
When all know their disposition
Is anything but sweet.
I wonder why.
I wonder why young men complain,
About the way their sisters flirt.
Then with eyes and mouth agape
Gaze, at a stranger skirt.
I wonder why.
I wonder why the middle-aged
Seek sympathy so soon.
They should be brave and nimble
Until later moon.
