About The State
Railroad Prospects Frightening

UCSON-Prospects in the railroad business are growing brighter each day according to reports received during the past few weeks, it was asserted last night by Julius kruttschnitt, chairman of the executive board of
 the Southern Pacific. who arrived in. the city accompanied by a party of prominent Southern Pacific officials
 'The railroad business according to statements received during the past few days. is showing a gratifying in
 crease kruttschnitt said. The vol ume of cars coming through out gate
 ways is growing larger each day and
 while the amount of business shows a
 slow growth, it is yet steady. Based on
 these reports, we can only predict that
 in the course of a few months the railroad business will have returned nearly to the normal state it occupied before the recent business depression egan."-Star
 Diner Prices Drop
 UCSON-Railroad travellers who avail themselves of dining car facili- ties will doubtless greet with joy the announcement made last night by the Southern Pacific that a general reduc- ! ton in the prices on dining car menus ranging from 15 to 25 per cent has been ip put into effect on western roads. The following specific instances of lowered prices were cited; Eggs 35 cents to 50 cents; ham and eggs. 70 cents to 65 cents: grape 1 fruit. 30 cents to 9 cents; steak, s1.4C ! to SIPS: certain styles of potatoes, SC lcents to 15 cents.-Star

of the county. And may | add these
roads have never been any better than
they are now.
Such roads as these are a disgrace
to a county and country. No coun-
try can prosper under these condi-
tons. Breckenridge county can expect
very little in the way of progress so
long as it allows roads like these with

But the business in Cloverport is
not what it would be if these roads
were improved. Cloverport would be
a greater shipping point, both by
water and by rail. The merchants
would do a greater business if the
people could get to them. In fact all
kinds of business would improve.
People of the county, will we allow
ourselves and our fellow-citizens to
travel roads like these? Don't we ap-
preciate the trade of a neighbor
county any more than to let barrier
like this lay between us and them?
If the Federal Highway, which is
now in progress. is placed along the

this road will not be lessened The
people of the two counties who travel

BOWLING GREEN
HAS NATURAL
SEWER SYSTEM
Over Million Years Old And
Only One In United
States.

(By Charles E. Mace. in May Popular Mech.
snies Magazine.)
The only city in the United States
Boosting sewer system in which all
the pipes" were laid by Mother Ma
ture is Bowling Green, KY. Although
the prosperous little municipality has
a population of $4,000 there is not a
foot of man-made sewer pipe in any
of the streets or alleys
The explanation, is that the city is
built over formation of oolitic white
limestone which is maze of .connec-
ted crevices extending to a consider
able depth below the surface; much
the same formation as that of the
famous Mammoth Cave just 80 miles
distant. This limestone is said to be
composed of the fossilized eggs of
prehistoric marine animals. The
logs" of oil wells drilled in the wes-
tern Kentucky fields, show that lime
stone of .one kind or another is en-
countered as deep as drilling has ever
yet been carried
When a new residence Is being
built in the Bowling Green region, a
sink finder" is employed, who merely
goes out in the back yard and digs
about in the red surface soil, which
is seldom more than 3 feet deep, until
he locates assure. A garden hose is
then placed in the crevice, and the
water is allowed to run until it is free
from distractions. 1t is them approx
ed by the city inspector, and the
house has perfect sewer connection.
No city has more sanitary system
Chemists say the sewage would be
purified i'll very short distance by
passing through the limestone. See
page never comes to the surface, the
explanation of biologists being that
it flows through these natural pass
ageways in the stone until it finally
finds an outlet in the river bed.
An interesting character is found
in Uncle" Henry Jameson, an aged
negro who has specialized in locating
assures and digging sinks" for the
past 25 years. When asked just how
many he had dug, he LAUGHED and said,
"Lawdy, Boss, | reckon | couldn't
count that many" Uncle Henry uses
the divining rod, or witch stick" as
he calls it, in locating the assures, and
declares he would never dig without
first employing his forked peach-tree
branch The frequency with which his
attempts are successful is amazing.
Although Henry is "A years of age, his
services in this capacity are in such de-
mand that the boilders will not let
him retire, and he has just signed a
contract to locate sinks for 25. new
