WOMEN NEED SWAMP ROOT

Thousands of women have kidney and
bladder trouble and never suspect it.
Womens' complaints often prove to be
nothing else but kidney trouble, or the
result of kidney or bladder disease.
If the kidneys are not in healthy
condition, they may cause the other or
gans to become diseased.
Pain in the back, headache. loss of am
bition, nervousness, are often times symp-
toms of kidney trouble.
Don't delay starting treatment. DR..

JUDGE SHACKELF0RD
DECIDES Land CASE

The Jessanllne circuit court has ad-
journed. The case attracting the
greatest attention during the term
was an appeal taken from county
court in the action of DR.. H. L. Nc
Lean against the board of supervisors
of Jesamine county.
Judge Shackelford decided in favor
of DIR. Mclean, claiming he should
not be assessed for 90 acres of land.
DR.. Mclean is the owner of about
1,400 acres of land, which is almost
surrounded by the Kentucky river. A
few years ago lock and dam was be-
ing built in the river and large part
of the farm was overfowed by the
water, making it unfit for cultivation,
the plaintiff claiming that the river
had widened at this point and that the
survey shows a shortage Of about 90
acres. u .
The plaintiff also claimed in his pc
tition that the assessment Of $50 an
acre on 540-acre tract, adjoining the
property, was excessive. The court
overruled this, stating that in accord
ance with the assessment fixed by the
board on the neighboring farms, this
assessment was excessive.
The court also upheld the decision
Of the lower court in fixing the as
sessment on $50 acres at $38 an acre.
The plaintiff claimed that this tract
bordering on the cliff and impossible
to be reached with farming machin-
cry, was unfit for cultivation and con-
tanned large number of sinkholes.

.JETT FARM TAKEN
DOWN AT $325
Col. Jim Hamilton Says Its Worth
More and He'll Get 1t For
This Splendid Place

Col. James |. Hamilton, the big
land dealer of Garrard county,
took down" his first farm in his
real estate history when he refus-
ed to sell the Shelby Jett farm of
300 acres for the bid of $325 an
acre at public sale near Kirksville
Wednesday. Col. Hamilton said
this farm is worth more than the
bid offered and he would sell it
for more and therefore wouldn't t
accept the $525 per acre offered
by a Garrard bidder.
Covington Jett was the con-
tending bidder for his fathers old
home place, but stopped at $500
an acre. A big crowd was pres
ent and much interest was mani
tested.
The Jett farm is one of the best
known in that section of Madi-
son county, where high priced is
the rule rather than the excep-
ton. Col. Hamilton knows land
values mighty we'll and his many
friends feel satisfied that he will
make good on his promise to sell
this fine farm for more money
than the high bid Wednesday.

KENTUCKY Y--MECCA
FOR The WORKMAN
Harvest Is On With Many Work
men Employed at High Wages
and Good Prospects

Kentucky is the mecca of the work
ing man, the cut of doors man these
days, and while there is large num-
Der OF strangers employed on the
farms of Madison county, it behooves
all who are able to participate in the
work TO join, in order to look after
the crops, which promise to be boun-
tlful. Frank Compton, as an illustra-
ton, is an eX-selvice man living in
Reading, Pa, who is here, and says
that he will stay for some time. He
was formerly a bookkeeper, but after
overseas service was ordered by his
physician to get out in the open and
"stay there"
Now to those who do not appreciate
Gid Kentucky as a good place to earn
an honest living, if given to work,
they have but to ask this man, who
has been travelling extensively since
he was taken into the service of the
U. S. army. Compton said that he
drifted into Kentucky to work-tT'm
not floater," however, cautiously. He
said that while he has never done the
work before, he has been stripping to-
bacco for ST per day, and that he
enjoyed it. There is the work in the
tobacco fields following, and wheat
cutting IS we'll under way in some
sections, for a variation. This will
be the special work of the coming
week. Much tobacco transplanting is
going on, although the weather is
not the most favorable. However, the
producers say they are taking
chance" since they will not have
much time to devote to setting out
tobacco after this week. The wheat
harvest will be followed by the hay
and clover cutting, which in turn will
be followed by threshing, and there
is always attention to be given to-
bacco. Thus the farmer is busy these
days, as well as every man who will
give his services. The harvest sea-
son in Kentucky is on full blast, and
il is claime3 that there are more
than the average young men from
elsewhere employed, although there
IS d dearth of worl1men for the farm.
This. has driven many to the more
modern machinery -
