FEDERAL HILL FUND RAISED

Federal Hill, the old southern
mansion where Stephen C. Foster,
wrote the song "My Old Kentucky
Home" is now to. all intents and
purposes the property of the State Of
Kentucky. The State commission
which recently appealed "to Ken
tuckians at home and abroad" foc
funds with, which to purchase the
property, reported contributions of
100000, which, covers the purchase
price of $4,000, but, according TO
the commission, does not provide
sufficient funds for it's restoration.
The margin over $4,000 the re-
port says will be used to care for IT,,
until the Kentucky Legislature meets
and determines upon methods OF
preservation.
The report of the committee,
which was made by Young e. ALI
son, of Louisville, says detailed
statement of contributions will be
made later.

facturerS at IL to Is cents per
pound. The spectators bought this
tobacco from the growers at to 5
cents per pound. In other words,
the spectators make two or three
times as much profit on each crop as
the producers get for toiling six to
nine months to raise it. If this to-
bacco is worth IL to Is cents now
it was worth two or three times
as much as was paid for it last
winter, and the manufacturers fixed
the price last winter. If the grow
ers want relief from the outrageous
conditions existing in the tobacco In
dustry they must get together in

who fails to join this organization

The hoatzin lives along the rivers of South
America. When its young are but recently
Matched in the nests that overhang the streams
they will leap into the water IL frightened bv
creatures of prey. They appear as clumsy and
helpless any other fledgengs, but, as mat
ter of fact, upon such occasions they easily swim
ashore. Instinct guides them to the tree in which
their nest is built. Having reached it, they per-
form a stunt the ability to accomplish which is
given to other creature on earth today. These
baby birds back up against the trunk of the tree
and lift their formative wings about their heads.
On the first joint of each of these formative
wings there is tiny horn and this horn they
stick into the trunk Of the tree. First one horn
and then the other they drive into the tree anu
climb it much the telephone lineman goes

their mother has built her nest and return thus
to their home.
given the power to fly, the horns slough off and
disappear forever
Now the scientists theory has long been that
all life came from the water, and here in this
new found bird of South America, they say, is
the final proof of their contention.
