FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH.


The first Baptist church in Ken
lucky was named Serverns Valley,
and was organized under a sugar
tree, near Elizabethtown, June IS,
1871, with seventeen members. The
ancestors of some of our great men
were in that organization, such as
John LaRue and Thomas Helm,
grandfather of Governor J. L. Helm.
Cox's Creek church, in Nelson coun-
ty, was the fourth, and was consti-
tuted in April, t7s5, with twenty-six
members. In the early days many of
the churches were named after creeks
and rivers. In 1910. an unusual, oc-
currence happened at this church,
when the pastor, Moses Pierson, bap-
tiled seven of his children at .one
time.

FARM AND STOCK

The prices OF six OF the important
crops on May /, of this year were be-
low the prewar average prices for
that rate, according to figures collect
ed by the Bureau OF Crop Estimates,
United States Department of Agricul-
ture. These crops are corn, oats, bar
ley, flax, potatoes and cotton. The
report showed that the prices OF the
three grains-wheat, rye, and buck
wheat-were above the prewar aver
age prices During April the average
price of wheat declined from 81 80 to
$1.23 per bushel The report shows
that in general the industrial crops,
such as flax, cotton, and broom corn,
are the most depressed in price, and
that food crops such as wheat, rye,
potatoes, and apples, show relatively
less decline.
The prices in various parts of the
country vary, with South Dakota, be-
ing the center of the low-price district,
the May l, report shows. The average
price of wheat in that State was 90
cents per bushel, and in some coun-
ties it was as low as 20 cents. Corn
was selling at an average price of 81
cents per bushel in South Dakota,
while the average price for the
United States was nearly 60 cents
The price OF oats was 23 cents per
bushel in South Dakota, the average
tor the United States being 3Gs cents.
The report showed big decline in
the price of old potatoes, especially in
Michigan, where the average was 20
cents bushel, which was 20 cents
below the average for the United
States.
