an out-of-town corporation has call
ed on him with view of starting
new ice plant in this city They look

cheaper price than is now charged.
II is understood that a number of
local parties are interested in the
new enterprise.

Great Southern to
Open Plant Here

Il. S. Stokley, formerly of this
city, but now of Lexington, was i'm
this city today in the interest Of the
Great Refining Co., of which he is
district manager, and, as will be
seen from an advertisement on an
other page in this issue. will within
the next 80 days open a distributing
plant in Mt. Sterling. They will
buy their own lot, erect their own
buildings and tanks, employ local
men to conduct the plant and pro-
pose to spend as much of their To-
cal receipts as possible among local
people.
The Great Southern Refining Co.
is strictly a Kentucky organization,
using Kentucky crude from the Big
Sinking field exclusively in the man
ufacture of their products. Mr..
Stokeley formerly had charge of the
Standard Oil plant in this city, and
has a host of friends in Mt. Ster-
ling where he is exceedingly popular,
and it will be good news to our
people to know that Mr.. Stokley will
have jurisdiction over the local which
will require good deal of his time
in this city.

80 Per Cent Of Acreage
Signed in Montgomery

According to County Chairman c.
b. Patterson, reports of precinct
workers in this county show that
$3.50 acres of tobacco has been
pledged to the Tobacco Growers
Cooperative Marketing Association,
which is slightly more than ninety
per cent. An accurate census Of
the county is being taken, with a
view of obtaining not only the exact
acreage of 1921, but the acreage
planted in 1920.
The work in this county under the
able supervision Of c. B. Patterson
and II. w. Lockridge, has been
handled in a business like way, and
it is doubtful if there is a county
in the State where results have been
more gratifying.
Work in other counties is progress
ing rapidly and the success of the
cooperative marketing plan seems
assured beyond a questionable doubt.

just three score and one years ago
that the beautiful Kentucky home Of

Raccoon John Smith was there at
the very moment to receive the mar

best of health for those of their ages
and seems they will be here many
years yet to come.
May their days be many and their

WILL MT. STERLING
TOLERATE A NUISANCE?
EDITOR ADVOCATE:


Will YOU not write something in
your paper to create sentiment
against the horrible nuisance of burn
ing trash within the city limits :?
Notwithstanding there is a city or
dinance prohibiting it, the air in the
central part of town is almost daily
made intolerable by the suffocating
fumes of burning trash and leaves.
The stencil is not only intensely dis
agreeable, hut unwholesome as well.
If the wind were always in the di-
rection of the house of the individual
who burns the trash it would not be
so bad; but it is usually right in the
direction of the homes of the neigh
bors, filling their houses with the
miserable stencil for hours at a
time.
If this ordinance is rigidly enforce
ed in other places, why is it that no
attention is paid to it in our own
city? Can't you urge the City Coun-
ell or the pndper authorities, to
stop this selfish and inexcusable nu-
nuisance?
