q. n. DErHsERAoB

G. b. Detherage. OF the Furniture
Store, Just about stopped a Ford
last week. He was standing at the
front of the store near the gasoline
tank when struck by a passing car,
which ran in close to get ahead Of
one in front. The fender struck Mr..
Detherage who took flight into the
air. He went so high that he had
time to decide where to drop and so
fell on the Ford that struck him.
He was a bit skinned. Whether his
proximity to the gasoline tank had
surcharged' him with gas and thus
converted him into a lighter than
air human machine, we leave to the
scientists, but the fact that G. B.
is a young man of considerable sta
ture as we'll as avoirdupois com
bined with HIS fight into the ether
would seem to indicate that a gaso-
line tank is the proper thing to be
standing by when one chooses to be
hit by a car. However, we do not
advise making a sport of the thing.
Someone might not be subject to in
fation and thus get hurt. Safety

LIFE OF LIVESTOCK
INDUSTRY MENACED
Lower Freight Rates Essential to
Keep Kentuckians in Business

w. s. Bell, president of the Louis
willie Livestock Exchange, said in an
appeal to c. c. McChord, acting
chairman of the Interstate Com
merce Commission. to bring his in
fuence to bear to secure reduc-
tion.
THE Livestock industry of the
South is in the most precarious con-
dition ever known" Mr.. Bell said in
stockers, are the lowest in years,
a telegram to Chairman McChord.
Cattle values, principally OF young
and many producers, unable to rea-
lize cost of production. are shipping
entire herds to market with the in
tention of going out of the business
of stock raising.
I am daily in touch with shippers
and producers thruout Kentucky
and Tennessee who are complaining
bitterly of present freight rates in
livestock, and a reduction at this
time would do much toward reviv-
ing and sustaining the interest of
producers who need encouragement
Of all kinds.
Unless something is done in this
respect. this section of the country
will be depleted of livestock. as it
is impossible TO produce at a profit
under present conditions.
Can you offer encouragement"

Plant "Doo In the Manner"

Quite a number OF plants seem to
have developed something very like
a consciousness, enabling them to
divine the best way Of circumventlng
the e~ncrOachments Of their neighbours.
A remarkable instance of this Is
seer in connection with the common
bramble, when, as Is often the case,
II is found struggling Over a pile of
stones or up against a rOughly-built
wall. In such circumstances the plant
has the power to turn it's growing
roots into dubbed roots, which COM
pletely fill the crevices where Soils

petitOrs out.
