DIXIE HIGHWAY ROUTED I
TWO BRANCHES

Pending ultimate designation of
permanent route, the Cincinnati
Lexington section of the Dixie High
way will have two officially recogniz-
ed branches through Kentucky, one
through Georgetown, Williamstown
and WILTON and the other through
Paris. Cynthiana and Falmouth, it
was announced, following meeting
OF the board Of directors of the Dixie
Highway Association at Cincinnati,
Saturday.
This means that both routes will
be printed on the Dixie Highway
route maps made as regular routes of
the highway until such time as the
board of directors meets again and
decides which is to be the permanent
route, the right to designate per-
manent route later being reserved by
the board.
Atlanta, Georgia, probably will be
the scene of the spring convention
of the association. Final decision,
however, was left to the executive
committee.

hurley TOBACCO GROWERS
VISIT WASHINGTON

A party of Kentuckians, headed
by R. w. Bingham, of Louisville,
presented the claims of hurley to-
tobacco growers of Kentucky for
financial relief to the War Finance
Corporation at Washington, Wednes-
day, according to special dispatch
to the Louisville Post. Senator
Stanley accompanied the delegation.
While the work of pledging to-
bacco under the contract of the Bur-
ley Tobacco Growers Cooperative
Association in Kentucky will go on
even in those counties which have
raised their quota of seventy-hve per
cent. Organization Manager Joseph
Passonneau said work in organizing
the hurley counties of Ohio and 1ndi-
ana will start this week.
The forty-one counties in the Bur-
ely belt in Kentucky furnished the
largest part of the Burley crop,
which normally is about 800, 100000
pounds a year, but which this year
is not expected to exceed zoo, 100000
pounds because of drouth conditions
prevailing the past summer at a time
when the growing plants were seri-
ously affected by lack of moisture.
The crop however, where it is good,
is of excellent quality and good
weight, it was said, judging from re-
ports, and cutting and housing is now
going on throughout the district.
Previous to the going over OF Bath,
Bourbon, Fayette, Woodford, Mont
gomery and Carroll had secured their
Huotas and in all these counties the
work of pledging crops will continue
with a view to making the pledge
acreage as large as possible. Orga-
nization Manager Joseph Passonneau
said.

IN BUSINESS SIXTY YEARS

Nicholas Kriener, the oldest mer-
chant in Paris, who began his local
business career here over sixty years
ago, quietly celebrated his eighty
third birthday anniversary recently
at his home on Twelfth street. MIR.
Kriener has been continuously en-
gagged in the harness business in
Paris for over sixty years, with the
exception of two short periods when
his business house on Main street
was destroyed by fire. Although fee
BILE, due to his advanced age, Mr.
Kriener is still in active control Of
his business, in which he is ably as
sisted by his son, Mr.. John Kriener,
and seldom misses a day from the
store except illness compels him to
remain at home. In the sunset of
life Mr.. Kriener views the world
calmly, in the consciousness of n
scrupulously honest past, life we'll
spent, and in the high regard and
esteem of all who know him.

COOPERATIVE MARKETING IN.
D0RSED

The following resolution adopted
by the Kentucky Bankers Associa-
ton at Louisville during the 1921
convention:
Resolved by the Kentucky Bank
ers' Association in convention assem-
bly, at Louisville, Kentucky, August
oath, 1921, that we approve the pres
ent sensible and necessary effort Of
the growers of Burley tobacco in this
State to place their industry upon a
more profitable and correct business
basis, and to that end we pledge TO
them all the assistance within our
power"
adopted by over a thousand bankers.
An act that was in itself sufficient to
give not only stability to this move
ment but to absolutely insure it's
financial success. Every group meet
ing of Kentucky bankers has indors-
ed the plan in the same sincere and
business-like way. Throughout the
Burley district the business men have
not only given their approval in a
commercial way, but have lent their
time as well. The success of Bour-
bon, Fayette, Woodford, Carroll and
Montgomery counties have been
largely attributed to undiminish-
ing efforts of their bankers and bust
ness men. Surely, the grower could
have no better counsel. For without
a doubt, the successful marketing of
any product is the daily labor Of
every business man. He knows the
meaning of depreciation, overhead,
salaries and the like. He says that
the Burley Cooperative Marketing
Plan is good business proposition.
The farmer can, therefore, afford to
accept his advice and sign UP.

resentative business men of the Fav-

ough representative, brainy, hand
some set of men never visited Paris.

for many a day.
The Windsor Hotel furnished the
setting for the visit of the Club,

visit was to explain the aims and OBJ
jects of the organization, and to lay
the groundwork for a similar orga-
nization in this city. One of the main
objects of the Kiwanis Club is to Gull
tivate closer bond of union and
good fellowship among the business
men of town, and great stress was
laid on this feature, in the addresses
made at the luncheon.
A delicious luncheon was served in
the dining rooms of the Hotel Wind
sor, during which addresses were
made number of Lexington Kiwan-
ians and Paris business men. Mr.. C..
M. Marshall, president of the Club,
presided, and after brief talk, in
troduced John Skain, who took
charge of the meeting. Music was
furnished by the Kiwanis Club Quar-
tette, who sang Club songs, such as
MARY Jane" "Old Kentucky Home"
etc. John Milward told a group of
humorous stories, and Prof. Edward
SaXton, of the University of Ken
lucky, well-known in Paris, read ex-
tracts from his play, ''The Spirit of
Short and interesting
talks were delivered by DR.. ]. A.

Allison Holland, of Lexington, re-
Spouse being made by Emmett NJ.
Dickson, of Paris. Good cheer and a
spirit of camaradrie prevailed
throughout the meeting, which was,
in all it's essentials, feast of reason
and flow of soul, literally speaking.
The Kiwanis Club members left the
of being heightened, in
telligent, up-to-date business men,
and their visit was much appreci-
ited.
