u. S. HAS TERRIBLE NEW WAR
DEVICE

The Chemical Warfare Service has
discovered a liquid poison so strong
that three drops will kill anyone
whose skin it touches, it became
known.
Falling like rain from nozzles at
tached to airplanes, the liquid
would kill everything in the air
crafts path, according to a high
official of the service.
During the Argonne offensive the
entire Fifth American Army OF l.
$50, 900 men occupied an area ap-
proximately 40 kilometers long by
20 kilometers wide. If Germany had
had 1000 tons of this poison and
400 planes equipped for its distri-
button, an officer of the chemical
service declared, the entire First
Army would have been annihilated
/ in II hours.
The Chemical Warfare Service is
developing protective clothing to
entirely cover the wearer and make
him impervious to the deadly liquid.

CARRIAGE AT CAMP ZACHARY TAYLOR

if one wishes to 60 to the further exa
pense Of applying steel lathe on the
sides and putting stucco on the lathe,
an artistic, thoroughly modern home
could be had for a mere fraction OF
what it would cost were it not possible
to secure this Government property at
ones own price, at auction.
The sale will begin on Monday, April
s5, and continue until all Of the 1900
buildings and 1000 acres Of land are
disposed Of Needless to say, this will
be an absolute sale, and the Govern
nent will reserve nothing, but will dis
pose of it all to the highest bidder.
There are many stables, creosote
water troughs and cresosoted fence
post that should particularly appeal TO
the farmer, who can purchase them at
his own figures.
The putting of this mammoth Can
Torment on the market for sale at
auction will do much to lower the cost
Of building. The original cost OF
buildings and land comprising the Can.
Torment was $1O,OOO,OO0. 1t will be
sold for just what it will bring at auc.
ton. A sale of this magnitude has
never before been held in Kentucky,
and it offers an unparalleled oppor.
tunity to those desiring to purchase
building material of every description
The taxpayers who furnished the
money to build Camp Zachary Taylor
will have an opportunity here to prof,
by the sale of the land and building
material, which will be sold at auction
by the Louisville Real Estate and De
velopment Company, of Louisville, who
will serve as sales agents for the Wal
Department.

In the sale Of Camp Zachary Taylor,

he reduced in such drastic manner that
The many who have for several years
mast been living in uncomfortable and
crowded conditions, because OF the
shortage of homes, will be enabled to
procure, at their own price, all mate
rial necessary for building.
Many million feet of Kindred lum-
Der was selected for the construction
Of this Cantonment, and it was subject
ed to the most rigid inspection. Hav-
ing been exposed to the weather for
pnly a short time, it is practically as
good as new, and for rough construc-
ton work and outdoor purposes on the
Garm or in the building of home, it
will answer every purpose that lumber
fresh from the mill does, and will
doubtless sell for considerably less
money.
The same Is true regarding the
plumbing and heating equipment that
was used at the camp. This will be
sold in small lots so that the small
buyer will be in as good a position to
take advantage Of these bargains as
the large buyer who is able to buy
several carloads
The 1900 buildings win be offered
one at time, and the successful bid
der will have the privilege of buying
one or more of the particular type OF

CONSOLIDATED SCHOOLS ARE ia.
VORED BY COLVIN.

There are 317 graded schools in
Kentucky, many of which were Gre
ated for the purpose of giving the
children in the community better
school than the county afforded, said
Superintendent of Public Instruction
George Colvin in letters mailed out
to members of the County Boards of
Education. Graded schools of this
type, he said, have rendered real
service to the cause of education in
the State. Many other graded
schools, Superintendent Colvin said,
were born of desire to appropriate
to limited few taxes that properly
belonged to the children of the entire
county.
"Such schools were selfish in their
inception and usually have been care
less in observing the laws that relate
to graded schools" said Superintend-
ent Colvin.
A consolidated or centralized school
under the control and administration
of the county board, superintendent
Colvin said, is to be preferred to an
independent graded school.
In the letter he calls the attention
of the County Board to the law pro-
viding that any community may levy
a tax in addition to the tax levied
by the county board.
