WESTERN GROWERS
PLAN TO SET Price
Organization Made At Owens
bcro Plans To Hold Crop
Till Buyers Pay For 1t

Owensboro, KY, Dec. 13-In an eff
fort to bring the prices being paid
for the 1921 crop oftobacco to an av-
erage at least above the cost of pro-
duction, the Green River Tobacco
Marketing Association was formally
launched here Saturday. The meeting
was attended by a crowd of growers
from every section of the Green riv-
er country.
By practically a unanimous vote
the executive committee was given
the right to conduct the sale of the
1920 crop of tobacco for the growers
who became members of the body.
Pledges will be circulated at meet
isgs in every school district Monday
night. The names of the growers
who do not sign the pledges will be
recorded for the purpose of obtaining
a correct estimate of the crop in this
county. Each of the school districts
will name chairman to report to {
meeting in Owensboro Wednesday
morning when it Will be learned what
amount of the Daviess county crop OF
tobacco has bees pledged.
It is the plan of the Executive
Committee to lease local factories,
and, if possible, some of the loose
leaf tobacco warehouses in Owens.
5oro for the purpose OF handling tire
pooled tobacco. The pledged tohac-
CO will be graded and a price fixed
upon it by the executive committee
The buyers will be advised of the
amount and quality of tobacco for
sale and the minimum prices they
will be expected to pay All of the
tobacco that is not takes by the buy
ers will be prized in hogSheads at
Owensborp factories and stored in
factories and warehouses until there
is a market for it. 1t is thought that
practically all of the low grades will
be handled in this manner. The cost
of putting tobacco in a hogshead IS
about 81 per 100 pounds. The matter
If cutting out next years crop will
depend upon the amount Of tobacco
that is sold is this district this season.
| 1t is probably that this question may
not be considered for several months.
In the meantime, none of the own
ers of the local looseleaf tobacco
warehouses has shown any inclination
TO close pending the organization of
the pool and the floors will again be
opened Monday. As soon as Daviess
j county is organized, the campaign
will be extended to other counties in
the Green River district and to south
ern Indiana counties

JAMES PARKS is
NhBBED BY Police

James Parks, cOlored, made the
mistake of his life when he returned
to Richmond after an absence OF sew
eral months and misjudged the police
facilities. He had no sooner hit the
city than Patrolman VIM. Maupin
was on his trail. Parks, who is said
to be wanted on larceny charge, ap-
peared in the eastern part of the city.
So did the officer The latter saw
Parks and Parks saw the policeman.
There was chase, the officer running
his quarry into a small building,
which was broken open and the fugi-
tive taken into custody. He will be
given a hearing later. 1t is claimed
that Parks has been in the habit of
taking things from automobiles park
ed about the city.

MORGAN EVANS
BUYS BREWER FARM

The ]. F. Brewer farm near Fox
town, was sold last week by that
hustling firm, the Freeman Realty
Company, to Mr.. j. Morgan Evans.
This farm is splendid piece of land
and all figure that Mr.. Evans secured
bargain. 1t contains 130 acres of
good blue grass land. There was a
big crowd on hand and Col.Jesse Cobb
the famous auctioneer, was at his
best. One bidder was here from as
far away as Lexington, and he told
the real estate men that he had seen
the advertisement of this farm in the
Richmond Daily Register and drove
over TO see if he couldn't pick ul a
real bargain but Morgan Evans baet
him to it. However, Messrs. Dunbar
and Caldwell, of the Freeman Com
pany, say they are mighty well pleas
ed with the way the Daily Register
brings 'em to their sales from this
and many other counties.

at Lexington were given decid-
ed treat Sunday with solos by
Miss Anna Bell Ward, of this city,
as one of the features of the pro-
gram. Miss Ward has a rich so
prano voice of much strength and
power The Lexington papers
carried a large cut of her with
this below it:
"This pleasing soprano singer
is not a new conner to the Lexing-
ton public, as Miss Ward scored a
decided hit with local theatre-go-
ers a few years ago when she
played a most successful engage
ment at the old Colonial theatre
and upon several occasions for
special engagements in the past
year her popularity with the Lex
ington public has proven tremen,
dous. Upon every occasion that
she has appeared before the L
ington public she has been repeat
edly encored. Miss Ward is So
prano singer of rare ability and
talent and the possessor of a most
charming personality. Her roper
toire of songs is delightful. The
Lexington public will welcome
the appearance of this popular ia
voriate at the Ben Ali with much
Iapplause"

BEN POWELL ISSUES
HIS Announcement

Ben r. Powell, Tax Commissioner
of Madison county for the past four
years, authorizes the Daily Register
to announce him as a candidate for
denomination and reelection, subject
to the action of the Democratic par
ty. To say that Mr.. Powell is one of
the best known and most popular Of
ficials in the county is expressing
nothing but the plain, simple and un-
vanished truth. If he has an enemy
no one knows it, and ne has proven
in other races that he has made that
he is one of the strongest runners
in the county today, having lead the
ticket in the last county primary
His friends say that his record in
charge of the tax commissioners of
flee during the past four years has
been so good that they feel he is en-
titled to an endorsement from the
people. He is very familiar with
such work, having served as deputy
assessor for three years before being
elected Tax Commissioner

SOMEBODY PLEASE
TELL THE BUTCHERS


Chicago, Dec. 13-Wholesale
prices of fresh meat cuts, both
beef and pork, reached the low
levels of the pre-war period with
the close of business last week,
Armour & Co., announced Sunday
in a public statement. Beef pric-
es, the last to be adjusted, declin-
ed to the lowest levels of the year,
says the statement.
Lower prices for live stock
which have resulted from declines
in feedstuffs and from excessive
receipts of stock in all markets
have had marked influence on the
wholesale selling prices of all
meats, resulting in level of pric-
es that ruled in 1914, in many in
stances.
"Fresh beef carcasses wei e Of
fered to the retail trade at prices
that averaged between II and Is
cents a pound, price almost as
low as in 1914. Light pork loins,
the price of which is the index of
all fresh work cuts, sold for II
cents as compared with the pre-
war price of 22 to % IL cents.
Lard was offered at 6 cents a
pound under the price of April l,
1917, which was 20.37 cents. The
average price of sweet picked
and cured porle products was II
cents, that being three cents IL
der the price of April, 1917.
"The market value of hides
IA 1-2 cents in the aggregate OF
the ten grades, has dropped 8 cts.
pound from the normal price
that existed in 1917, and is at this
time one cent a pound lower thar
the price that obtained in 1912
Subnormal value of by-product:
from cattle of which hides is typ
ical, have had tendency to hole
up the price Of fresh beef carcass
es and had the market for the by
products held reasonably stiff
the beef meat prices would have
effected further declines by this
time"
