Good Evening
BY ROY x. MOULTON
so DO WE

so DO WE
I love to work. toll and labor,
Move and sway the muscles of my
body,
Feel the beads of perspiration
Trickle down my neck and round my
face,
Sense the red glowing blood
Running up and down my body.
Emotion the sympathy of the crowd,
And gaze at the completion of my
activity;
But, gosh, hate to do it
For twelve bucks per week.
Women wear shortest skirts just
when stockings are the most expens-
i've.
There seems to be quite lot of
howdy-do these days about the length,
or perhaps we should say the short
ness, of women's skirts. In fact. We
don't remember of having heard any
body speak of anything else. except
ing prohibition. in many months. 1t
seems to us that great deal OF hot
air is being wasted on this subject
because it doesn't make a bit of diff
ference what the men think about ii.
Whenever a reformer delivers a lee
ture against short skirts every skirt
in town goes up another inch. The
ladies seem to be running that mat
ter. and running il very well, sre
would say. as personal opinion. They
say the new style calls for longer
skirts, but how many women have you
seen obeying the new style?

OF THE TWINS

THE PALM TREE HOTEL.

A WAY went Nancy and Nick and
AMr. Flippety-Flap TO the Island
of Farthest-Ever to hunt up the
Monkey Family.
The Green Shoes that the twins
wore were heading straight for the
ocean, which it is necessary TO cross
before you come to this particular
place. That's one peculiar thing
about any island, indeed, that YOU
may have noticed. You always have
to cross water before you come tn
it. You simply cannot reach it by
land, even the back way.
But just before they left the shore
Flippety-Flap stopped suddenly.
Tut" cried he. mot tut YOU but
tut me, children. It's my fault! /

IT'S ALL%oVER.

Tho urinary election IS past and the results known
,vo oan now settle down to business as usual .
The publishers Of the Courier did not vote for AL the
winners Some Of their dearest hopes were shattered
h,t thew are Democrats and feel that when
into into the primary they pledged their honor to support the
nominees, and they afeeheerfuy and so!dy Tor every
nne who received the Democratic nomination.
Democratic primary is the means by which tn the
Democrats choose their candidates for the battle IN No
vember and once the majority Of the party has spoken
all Democrats are honor bound to carry out their agree
ment. ~r-.-
The Courier stated at the beginning of the campaign
that It was for Floyd Arnett for Commonweaths Attor-
new and its publishers did all they could hooraby do to
secure his nomination. but he was defeated And be-
cause we see no other Democratic course that Is in the
keeping with our idea of Democracy are heart and
soul for Cleveland Allen And we are assured that Mr.
Alien will receive no hearer support from any man in
the,dstrict than from Mr.. Arnett ..-,,..tsl45
ss Naturally, there is feeling Of chagrn and dssap
sentiment among some of those who were unsuccessful
but when they have time to weigh the matter carefully
we believe that practically all the Democrats will fall in
line and keep nyioate their agreement to support the
nominees.
Party pledges to support nominees are not Scraps O
paper to be ignored They are sacred pledges and shouc
he treated as such.

ASHLAND WHEAT.

Several yeas ago the College of
Agriculture Of our State University
realized that the total yield Of wheat
in Kentucky could be greatly increased
f we had a purebred variety of
wheat which would yield higher than
any other varities then grown, and if
the farmers Of the State would then
SOW seed of this variety instead of the
common, inferior strains. Now Jersey
Fultz wheat had been grown to some
,xtent In practically every part Of the
state and generally had yielded better
than any other variety, and the crops
specialist at the Experiment Statior
felt that If they could actually improve
Jersey Fultz wheat itself, they woul6
have a virety well worth while.
So they selected about 500 heads Of
Jersey Fultz wheat and planted eacl
head in a row to itself, and harvested
them separately. OF course one head
produced better than all the rest, and
Starting with the seed from this best
head, II was increased until they had
enough seed to sow large acreage
and then finally they were able to dis
tribute 1t so that farmers might get
start of 1t. But during all this time
they were busy comparing this new
strain Of wheat with other varieties b!
actualy seeing which would yield most
on equal areas of land Of the sam'
richness. AS a result of five years Of
tests, they found that this new whea'
averaged over two bushels per acre
more than its nearest competitor, the
decided to give this new variety th'
name Of Ashland, prObabr in honor o.
the Henry Clay plantation which rests
nearby the Experiment Station farm
By this time Ashland wheat has be
come fairly well distributed in som'
parts Of the state, and a considerable
quantity of 1t is being threshed b!
