Kelley-Moore.

The country home of Mr. c. A.
Fitzpatrick, near 0bion, Tenn, was
the scene of a pretty home wedding
on last Wednesday morning at nine
o'clock, when Miss Mary Moore, a
niece of Mr.. Fitzpatrick, was mar
ried to Mr.. Fred Kelley, of Steele,
Mo. The impressive ring ceremony
was said by Rev. w. B. Cunningham,
of Union City, and was witnessed by
only few members of the immediate
families. The room was tastefully
decorated with chrysanthcmums and
autumn leaves, the color scheme be-
ing white and yellow. The wedding
party stood beneath the span of a
pretty wedding arch.
The bride wore pretty navy blue
suit of tricotine with hat and &C
cessories to match and carried bou-
quet of yellow chrysanthemums. She
was attended by Miss Emma Kelley,
who was dressed in brown taffeta
with silk lace and tulle trimmings
and carried a bouquet of Killarney
roses. Mr.. Pleasant Kelley, broth
er of the groom, served as best man.
This union represents two of our
very best families. The bride is
daughter of the late Alex Moore, and
is a young lady of unusual beauty
and accomplishments. Mr.. Steele,
formerly of this county, is now
prominent business man and planter
of Steele, Mo.
Immediately after the ceremony,
Mr.. and Mrs. Kelley, accompanied by
Mr.. Pleasant Kelley and Misses En-
ma and Ellen Kelley, started over
country by auto for Steele, Mo-,
where they will reside.
A host of admiring friends join in
hearty congratulations and wish for
them many years of undisturbed

For Mrs. Mckinney.

In honor Of Mrs. Roy, Mckinney
of Paducah, who is president general
of the United Daughters of the Con-
federacy, an informal reception was
given Thursday afternoon by the
Leonidas Polk Chapter, U. D. c., at
the home of Mrs. Cecil Moss. There
were number of guests besides the
members and the occasion was a
most enjoyable one.
Mrs. Mckinney made most in
teresting talk on the work and future
plans of the organization. She
pointed out thet although there were
some who had discouraged the erec-
ton of monuments to commemorate
historical events, it is one of the
best ways to preserve reverence for
our nations greatest men and their
heroic deeds and to stimulate the pa
triotism Of the young people of
America. These monuments also add
much to the attractiveness of the
city or town in which they are
placed, and will survive the ravages
of time more than any building
erected as a memorial, Mrs. McKin-
ney added. She urged the organiza-
ton of a chapter of Children of the
Confederacy. She said that since the
war there had been more chapters of
the U. D. C. formed than ever before,
showing the greater love for pa
triotism that now exists among the
people. The Leonidas Palk Chapter
felt itself very honored to have Mrs.
Mckinney in Union City and es-
pecially for the compliment she paid
the chapter by inviting representa-
tive to be page at the convention of
the U. d. C. at Asheville in Novem-
Der.

HOW 10 RID FLOCK OF
"sTICK-TIGHT" FLEAs

In ruany Of the southern and south
western states fowls and chicks are
often infested by species of flea,
commonly known as the "stick-tight"
fea. because of Its habit Of sticking
to one place on the bird instead Of
moving about like lice and mites.
They are usually found in clusters on
the comb, wattles. and around the
eyes, Chicks. when infested. often
die quickly. Old fowls, while usually
stronger and more resistant, will
cease laying or nearly so, and some-
times die as the result of the attacks.
"stick-tight" fieas breed in cracks
and crevices Of brood coops and
poultry houses, and dry animal or
vegetable refuse, but not in damp or
wet places. Therefore. to get rid Of

ducklings from "a to 4S hours to
hatch after they pick the shells;
therefore it is advisable to allow the
hen TO get off the nest for feed and
water when the first ducklings pick
the shell and then confine her to the
nest until the Matching is over.
Ducks eggs need more moisture than
hens eggs at Matching time, as il
takes the ducks much longer to get
out of the shell. The eggs, there
fore. should be sprinkled with warm
water previous to Matching.
Incubators for Matching ducks
eggs are usually kept at slightly
lower temperature than for hens
eggs. Keep the machine at 1O2 de-
grees F. for the first three weeks and
1913 degrees F. for the last week.

Methods of BrOOdinE.
Ducks are much easier to brood
artificially than chickens. but they
may also be raised under hens sue
cessfully. If raised by the latter
method, 1t is advisable to confine the
hens and allow the ducklings free
range, as the hens are apt to wander
too far away with their broods.
After the ducklings have been con-
fined to the incubator for "a to SO
hours after Matching. remove them
to the brooder and give them their
first feed. The brooder should be
oerated at a temperature of about IS
degrees F. at first and gradually re-
duced to SO degrees or IS degrees
within week or 10 days. The tenn
perature may be reduced quite rapid
", depending on the season of the
year. Aim to keep the ducklings
comfortable.

ERA OF MOTOR TRANsPoRTA.
TION HAS ONLY BEGUN

while the number of automobiles
in the United States today may seem
large, their universal use has only
just begun" says Burton Troxell Of
the Capital Motors Corporation, local.
dealers in Chevrolet passenger and
commercial cars.
THE outstanding feature Of pas
senger and commercial car sales in
the past year is the number purchased
by those who have never owned cars
before.
1.-THE tremendous impetus given to
commerce by tho end of the war and
the corresponding need of transpor-
tation facilities to keep goods on the
move have caused many business
to experiment with truck. They
have found its convenience and econ
omy a decidedly profitable invest
ment. In consequence truck sales
are increasing ever more rapidly.
Passenger cars are selling accord
ingly Many who have always want
ed cars, but who thought they could
not afford them. are now in posi-
ton to buy them for the first time.
They are finding out the many
ways in which motor car Is dis
tinct saving. They are finding that
their many advantages make their
cost negligible.
Naturally the low priced automO-
biles that afford every essential OF
equipment and are especially built
for economical transportation have
proved the most popular. They are
now within the means of practically
everyone. The service they render
completely satisfies the great major
ity. They are turning the luxury OF
the past into the indispensable util-
ity of the future"

INVENTS AUTO SIGNALS

err. Takes Out Patents.

E. B. Wagner, a well-known Olym-
chant, has recently received patents
from the Office at Washington, d. c.,
covering three different styles of auto
signals.
The signals devised by Mr.. Wagner
are in compliance with the traffic
laws of California, ami are consid-
cred the most perfect and simple of
operation yet invented.
The traffic laws of California, the
most stringent of any state in the
Union. require when an auto driver
wishes to turn to the left he must
hold his hand out straight; to the
right, up As degrees; stop, down As
degrees. To meet these require
ments, Mr.. Wagner has devised a
|semaphore, which works in front of
the wind shield. The semaphore,
when in operation, extends the same
distance from the car as daes mans
arm. This may be used for daytime
signals, but at night a system of
lights are used. These lights also
comply with the state laws. II car
is turning to the eft blue light is
shown on the extended arm of the
lsemaphore; yellow, to the right, and
red to stop.
Patents have been taken out on
three different types of these signals.
selling for $40 and $40 when oper-
ated by hand leverage and for closed
cars more elaborate signal has been
devised, controlled by button and OPP
Grated by electricity.
Mr. Wagner has sold the right to
manufacture these signals to q Arm
located at, San Francisco. organised
at $6O,00Ofor this purpose. The first
order of 1000 signals are to be
placed ON the msrket by April LIST.
The owner of the patents was pres
ent when the manufacturing firm
placed the order for the first to be
manufactured, paying the account
with certified check of $4,000.
Application for patent rights on
these signals have been made to the
English and Canadian governments.

Duck raising is conducted success
fully both as a side issue on general
farms and as special business on a
large scale. The sale of these birds
IL not confined chiefly to the holiday
season, like turkeys, but the demand
fs an all-te-year-one. On a general
farm they add variety. both in meat
and in eggs to the farmers table.
Ducks lay their eggs early in the
day, and should be confined to the
house or en- until $3.50 or 10 O'Clock
IN the morning. If allowed to roam
early in the morning, they may lay
In a pond or stream and the eggs
may be lost.
Period Of Incubation.
The period of incubation for ducks
eggs is % days, except for the Mus
covy duck, which is 33 to 35 days.
The eggs may be Matched either nat
urally or artificially. but on practi-
cally all of the large duck farms the
Matching Is done in incubat, rs.
Strong, fertile eggs are prime es-
sential in good Matching, and are OBJ
tanned only from stock properly
mated and kept under the best pos
sible conditions to secure health and
yigor, say United States Department
Of Agriculture specialists. Eggs from
Overfat breeding stock do not usually
produce large percentage of strong
ducklings. Pekin and Indian Run
