300 PUREBRED BULLS
FOR KENTUCKY FARMERS"

To still further improve the quality
of livestock in Kentucky the Louis

Kentucky Purebred Livestock Asso-

Better Sires' campaign in that State.
Besides distributing educational ma
terial pointing out the value of good
pure bred sires in all classes of live
stock, arrangements have been made
to hold a farmers bull sale on June
End. In a letter to the L. s. Depart
mcnt of Agriculture the president CIV.
s BelD of the Louisville Live Stock
Exchange states, referring to the sale.
I'VE expect to place 300 purebred
bulls with the farmers of the State
of Kentucky There is no mercenary
motive behind it. The Louisville Live
stock Exchange is giving publicity
free of charge and the breeders are
entering their stock for this sale with
out reservation. No individual breed
or breeder will be advertised.

SUGAR MANUFAC-
.TURED FROM CORN
BY S. r. Winters, in the June
Popular Mechanics
Magazine.

The commercial production of a
sugar possessing the approximate
sweetness of cane sugar, obtainable
from source of low-priced raw ma
terial with the finished product re-
solving itself into crystallized form,
has been the objective toward which
chemists have struggled increasingly
for decades. Now, thanks to the un-
renting research of an eastern
chemist, sugar is being made CONNER
cially from corn. A Baltimore manu-
featuring establishment, working two
shifts of ~ hours each, is producing
approximately 10000 pounds of corn
sugar daily, chemically known as
"invertose."
The new process involves the pro-
duction of sugar of group technical
ly known as ketohexoses, or fruit
sugars. The fruit sugars are sweet,
the sugar obtained by this process
being 80 per cent as sweet as cane
sugar, and possessing other favor
able qualities. Corn, containing from
IS to 20 per cent of starch, was select
ed for its starch-yielding capacity,
and by reason of its well-nigh mex
haustible supply and availability One
bushel of corn will yield As pounds of
invertose.
The method is first to produce an
intermediate compound from starch in
the material used and then convert
this intermediate into fruit sugar by
well-known means. The second re-
action is effected by any of the we'll
known methods of reduction, such as
INCORPORATION, or treating with hy-
drogen gas, whereupon is formed the
fruit sugar, or invertose.
Only six hours elapse from the time
the ground corn-either corn meal
or f1our-is placed in the machine for
the formation of the starch until the

WOOL GROWERS
GET REFUND FROM
EXCESS PROFITS
Checks Amounting to $685.
463.66 Distributed to Grow
ers Over Country.

A new record of distributing re-
funded excess profits on the 1918 wool
clip was-made by the Bureau of Mar
kets, United States Department of
Agriculture, during the week ending
April 16, when 1865 checks, repre-
senting $53,1Ss.O6, were mailed out
to growers The total number of re-
fund checks which were mailed out
to that date was 54,492, distributing
excess profits amounting to $685. 63 =
&C.
The distribution of refunds was be-
gun last October. Distribution for the
week ending April as covered one
fifth of the total number of checks
and one-fourth of the total amount of
money returned to growers that far
The record made during that week
however, was due to an accumulation
of checks received from the disburs-
ing Office and the special effort made
to bring the work up to date
Up to this time $56s, 1864 has been
received from wool dealers as excess
profits to be distributed to the grow
ers. The pending excess-profits cases
involve an additional minimum "a
mount of 1851 ,6OO.27, which will make
the total refund from wool dealer
$1,149,716.1s This represents the ex-
cess profits thus far ascertained and
demanded from 6s central dealers and
953 country dealers. Reports submit
ted by wool dealers indicate that only
80 per cent of the central dealers and
20 per cent OF the country dealers
made excess profits on their 1918
transactions

A HERO AMONG THE
BIG BROTHERS" OF KY.
Story of Homeless Orphan, Who
Gave His Life in World War.

The zero hour, that morning at
Chateau Thierry marked the first
check to the German hordes sweeping
on toward Paris. The First American
Army stood like a wall of rock. but
as the smoke of battle cleared among
the dead and dying was Guy Everett
Warren.
To Uncle Sam, he meant but an
other son who had sacrificed his life
for his country that Democracy and
Civilization should not be destroyed.
But back in Kentucky was a moth

She did not know her son had died
the death of hero; she did not even
know he had gone to war; she knew
only that she had had son twenty
two years before and the burden had
been too great. A big Brother" The

had failed and the big Brother"

the first reports of the dead came in.

In those early days of Americans

slowly and not for several months did
it become known that Guy Everett
Warren of Hardin County had taken
out $4,000 insurance payable to his
estate.
During this time the Government
was trying to find his relatives and
then it was revealed to the Federal
investigators that all records concern
ing Guy Everett Warren were in the
archives of the Kentucky Chldren's
Home Society These were resorted to
and through them the name of the
mother who had since remarked, was
learned.

County Judge of Hardin County in
1908, a waif. homeless and alone, his
mother being unable to care for him
There he was trained into useful
manhood and left the home to enter
a farmers home as son. When the
war broke out, Guy was among the
first to answer the colors.

KENTUCKY WOMEN
MUST PAY POLL TAX.

Frankfort, KY, May 14.-Along
with the privileges of full citizenship,
the woman of rural Kentucky will as
sumo the obligation of paying a poll
tax. This tax is for the benefit of the
county common schools.
Atty Gen Charles |. Dawson, in
response to an inquiry from Bernard
Stone, chairman of the Nelson County
Board of Education. said there is no
doubt in his mind that the county
school poll tax applies to women as
well as men.
Heretofore the poll tax has referred
specifically to males" u years or old
er, but the new county school law
provides that the Fiscal Court "shall
impose upon all legal voters, residing
in the territory affected by The ad
valorem tax, capitation tax of not
more ti:an 81 each"
AS women are legal voters, the At
torney General said, he cannot see
how they may escape the tax.--Cour-

MONUMENTAL A.
CHIEVEMENT OF EX-
PRESIDENT WILSON

The following "boler-plate" edi-
toral, necessarily of a spineless ma
ture, is being printed in number of
Kentucky papers:
For many months not the country
has been suffering from a depression
in business that at any other time
would have resulted in disastrous
panic.
Does that indicate that the Ameri-
can people have reached a degree of
enlightment that renders them i'm
mune to financial panics?
Have they reached the point where
they collectively recognize the wisdom
of calmness and restraint in the hour
of adversely?
Has our civilization reached the
stage where the practical element
predominates?
Or is it simply a growing and a
biding faith in the stability of our
country and its form of government?
What is your answer to the query?
The answer to the query is easy.
1t is not found in any new psycholo-
gical condition of the American peo-
pie, but in the simple fact of the Fed
eral Reserve Act.
That act enabled the American peo-
pie to withstand alike the shocks of a
world war and of the reconstruction
period without panic. But for it's ex-
istence. our whole financial and econ
omic structure would have toppled,
and even if victory at arms would
have been saved from the wreckage,
our plight today would be pitiful.
The Federal Reserve act will stand
for generations as the monumental
achievement of the Wilson Admins

Dear Brother Publisher:

Dear Brother Publisher:
Show this chart to your local skep-
tics as a proof that local advertising
pays-and pays big!
This graphic picture of what Avery
dealers did is based on actual results
reported to Avery by country dealers
who sell their implements and mach
ines. Most of the advertising done
by these local dealers was in their
local papers-and the advertising
dealers averaged l3 times as much in
Gales as the non-advertising dealers.
Every last one of your local mer-
chants ought to be constant and
CONSTANT user of space in your paper.
Maybe this chart will help you con-
vince some of the unconvinced We
hope SO.
If is it true that the real velvet in
merchants profit lies in his stock
turnover and it does then the only
in selling is to advertise locally. You
way he can approach 1909 efficiency
can show him that you can help
stimulate his stock turnover
You can give your merchants the
