Tobacco Situation in KENTUCKY

Our full sympathy is with the
tobacco growers in Kentucky ONE
account of the very low price
they are getting for their crops
1t is especially hard on them be-
cause the high costo of labor and
materials made the crop that il
now on or ready for the market
cost more to produce than ever
before. --s.s,.~. q
The growers, however. mus
understand that the same bOyers
who paid the very enormously
high prices for tobacco last year
and the year before are the ones
who are offering the lawer prices
now. They are, of course, try
ing to buy the tobacco from thE
growers as cheaply as they poe
sibly can and in way they have
cut out competition in hSginx
by parceling out the ter A0y
among the big Four. To-
meet the determination Of the
big buyers the growers have but
one of two things to dO-ei' beg
not to sell at the prices Gffered
or to agree among themselves to-
cut out the crop next year.
| We do not believe it is good
sense to refuse to sell and to Old
the tobacco because the chanees
are that the big Four" will buy
enough to meet their demands
and that which is held off msYkeE
will likely find no purchasers
The grower is more or less IN the
hands of the big tobacco manu-
factuerers, but we must remem-
Der that these same buyers pai6
unusually high prices last yeaF
and year before. 1t is said 'hsk
ore reason why the Big FOlE''
have divided Up the territory
that they have been unable to-
get the $50, 100000 necessary to
buy the Kentucky crops.
We should also bear in nina
that there is a great deal Of in
ferior tobacco this year whIeh
brings little or nothing and is
only bought by:local men.
The very low price for tobacco,
when we consider its weight and
inferior quality, is nearly Fifty
percent. of what is sold for last
season.
We believe that the growers
have been trying to raise more
; than they can properly hsDdEs
! and take care of. If we are To
: raise tobacco, we should snIT
raise so much as we can properly
cultivate and house at the proper
time. Either raise good. tohzao
or raise none.
We would also repeat the sug-
) gestion made before the opening
: of the season, to put only the
) best half of the crop on the mar
! ket at present, as the inferior
grades will not bring enough to-
justify hauling them to markat..

The New Value Of Army appFo.
priation.

One of the most noticeable
features of the estimates which
have been submitted to the pres
emit Congress by the War De-
partner is the large amount of
money which has been asked for
other than purely military pur-
poses. Prior to the institution
of the higher ideals prevalent
throughout the Army of the
present time, practically all the
appropriations for the Army
were for the purposes of military
training. The Army of today is
no longer a one. purpose organi-
cation but has developed into a
great national institution which
has enveloped within its scope of
work the educational, vocational
and moral training of the men of
the country, as well as the COM
mercial growth and economic
welfare of the Nation as a whole.
For these higher motives, a large
part Of the appropriations of the
Army has been asked. 1t is due
the people, upon whom the sup
port Of the Army must rest, that
they should know for what the
Army appropriations are used. :.

WHAT YOU CAN DO
WITHOUT MONEY

W NJ ~ 4 MIN = Il
Have you never day-dreamed that
you would like to be wealthy phlan-
thropist-to be able to give lot OF
money to worthy works? Ofcourse you
have. It's pretty nice dreaming, and
~e all indulge in it once in a while, es
pecially if it were for the benefit Of your
own loved country-your own state.
If We asked you to contribute a large
part of $4,000 900 to be given Uncle
Sam-which means all Of us-each year,
you would probably think we were
crazy.
If we asked you to donate to your
state schools and roads each year, your
share of sum Of money equaing 30 per
cent of the gross income Of the national
forests in your state, you would probably
call the police. But you can do just
those exact things aud it won't cost you
a cent. Just little sanity-thought OF
others-and carefuIness when driving
through or camping in the forests OF
your state.
Spread the gospel every way you can
and resolve yourself to be careful with
matches, cigarettes, cigars and pipes.
Never throw live ones on the ground.
Soak with water or bury your camp fire
embers before leaving and watch for
others carelessness. Be a real big phil
anthropist.

PRICES OF FARM CROPS
BELOW PREWAR A


The prices of six Of the important
crops on May LIST Of this year were below
the prewar average prices for that date,

reau of Crop Estimates, United States
Department OF Agriculture. These crops
are corn, oats, barley, flax, potatoes and
cotton The report showed that the
prices Of the three grains-wheat, rye
and buckwheat-wer above the prewar
average prices During April the aver
age price of wheat declined from 81 50
to $l.23 per bushel The report shows
that in general the industrial crops such
as flax, cotton and broom corn, are the

apples, show relatively less decline.
The prices in various parts ofthe coun-
try vary, with south Dakota being the
center of the low-price district the May
lst report shows The average price of
wheat in that State was 30 cents per
bushel, and in some counties it was as
low as 70 cents. Corn was selling at an
average price Of 81 cents per bushel in
South Dakota, while the average price
for the United states was nearly 60
cents The price of oats was % cents
per bushe in South Dakota, the average

igan, where the average was % cents a

STATE SCHOOL FUND TO
SHOW DECIDED d

Pierre, May 2S.-The apportionment
of state funds to the schools Of the state
is likely to halt in its upward climb this
year.
For many years the only question was
just how much it would increase over
the previous year, but with thousands
of acres of the state land lying uuleased
this year there will be a decided reduc-
ton in the income which helps build up
this fund.
For several years there has been ac.
tive demand for leasing of the state
lands, and very little of it was not bring
ing revenue. But the demand fell of
radically this spring on account of the
shortage of live stock, and the low prices
of stock, which resulted in the owners
