RAILROADS TO GET &c. jf
lt HALF BILLION SOON
Advances VIII Benefit General FL
naacial Situation. Mellon SAYS


Washington. July 7.-Secretary
Mellon Of the Treasury Department
announced today that under a provi-
sional refunding arrangement made
With the railroad executives the car
rieTs would receive approximately
$500 900, 900 in additional advances
from the Federal Government with
in the next six months.
Hr. Mellon said the negotiations
With the railroad executives proba-
bly, would be completed within two
days and that the advances : con-
templated would give 10 the rail-
roads in cash sums Of money equi-
valent 10 those which the Govern
ment spent in capital betterments
during the period of wartime con.
troll. The Government will receive
for the advances 6 per cent security
evidencing the Indebtedness Of the
particular railroads which receive
the advances, it was explained.
All Of the claims and counter
claims between the individual rail-
roads and the Government arising
out of maintenance expenditures
during the control period are in
volVed in the negotiations. Mr..
Mellon indicated. and where ar
~ Oh. t.F
pleted some sort OF "a compromise
agreement will result in each case
to clear up the outstanding differ
ences. ..s. 'l
Mr.. Mellon said he believed the
advances to the roads would be
beneficial to the general financial
situation and might assist in a re-
sumption of business activity. In
many cases, he said, the advances
would enable the railroads to pay
outstanding debts to Industrial COM
panies for supplies used during the
past year and would in addition
furnish funds for the betterment of
equipment and repair of neglected
railroad property. 4
In the long run, he added, the
Government would obtain a net
profit from the advances. since the
money necessary could be borrowed
at lower interest rate than the Sc
curities which the railroads return
to the Government would bear.
Railroad securities now held by the
Treasury, he said amounted to ap-
proximately 100000. 900, and in
terest and capital payments had
been regularly met 'on all OF them,
giving the Government an income
of about $4,000, 900 a year.

get the peas planted early is to fol-

teams are required, two for disking
and one for drilling. The peas may
also be sown broadcast and covered
with the disk harrow, which will
save one team.
Provided the teams are not avail

Lime Needs or Western Kentucky
Coal Fields
r., J. KINNEY

The northern Tart Of western Ken
lucky consists of soils derived from
the coal measure formations. speci-
fically, they resulted from the decay
of native sandstone. shale, and con
glomorate. The Dekalb is the main
series, while the Christian and Tilsit
occupy extensive portions. The lime
content OF these soils was low from
their inception, which. coupled with
poor drainage, augments the need
fG' heavy applications. The lime
requirement Is about 1900 pounds
OF calcium oxide equivalent per
acre. Circling this area and CEN
terlng In breckenridge and Grayson
counties, is a narrow band OF soils
from the Chester formation. which
even exceed the coal measure soils
In acidity.

had to be culled out because of not
conforming to the contest rules, suf-
fcient were not left to warrant award
ing the prizes at this time. For this
reason it was decided to extend the
time: for sending in the essays until
December %. .~'..... -.
. Those who have written essays and
wish to, send in others may do so and
they will be so advised by the COM
1nittee and those who have sent IN
their essays and wish to leave them

do so. They will be judged on their
merits at that time. j. j. - ~.
Interest has been aroused in the
schools of the city and large num-
Der of essays will be written and the

bond of $75 and has left the city:
Ethel Wilson, who was arrested on
a charge of being an inmate of a
house of ill-fame, appeared Monday
afternoon for trial before Judge john
F. Gibbons and was found by The
court not guilty of the charge.
!, Maude Gilbert and Corinne Jones,
arrested on similar charge, were
also found not guilty by the court
this morning, the evidence against
them being identical or practically
Identical with that against Ethel Will
SON, Argument and motion was made
by Attorney G. l.. Pegelow, attorney
for the defendants, to dismiss the
charges, in which he argued that
sufficient evidence had not been pro"
duced to show that the house in which
the above women stayed was a house
of ilI-fame. The court considered that
the evidence produced was not suffl-
cient to prove the guilt beyond 4
reasonable doubt and therefore dis
missed the charges. ...,.. 80

SETTLERS VOTE DOWN
MODIFIED DITCH PLAN

The delegation representing Bel
tram county returned this morning
from Warren, where it went to at
tend a hearing on the Consolidated
Judicial Ditch No. /. Arguments were
presented by County Attorney Ora
ham M. Torrance, on behalf Of Bel
trami county, against the construc-
ton of the ditch, and the grounds
Of excessive taxation now levied
against the portion of the county
where the increased taxation caused
by the new proposed ditch would
fall. Many settlers expressed them
selves as being unable to carry any
heavier load than they were at the
present time called upon to bear, IN
taxes, and if further burden should
be placed upon them they would have
to move out and let the land 80 for
the taxes on it.
: The arguments we're Eiadc before
Judge Erindeland of Warren and
upon the completion Of the arguments
on both sides, a rising vote was taken
on the question which resulted in an
almost unanimous expression against
proceeding with the modified plan,
which was submitted by the petit
TONERS.
Further hearing on the matter was
adjourned until next July.
