The First Stroke Is
Half the Battle

Choosing ones companions
has made some men what they
are, and the mistake of others
in not taking offered advice or
not being strong enough to
drop evil company has been
their ruin.
Better for the latter to have
fallen into a bed of wasps.
To almost every man known
to the writer was given an
elective opportunity to make
or lose his way. All men are
weak on some side or other,
and need to be spoken with as
to the first strokes of 1ife's
battle.

IMPORTANT RULING MADE IN
TOBACCO MARKET

Representatives of Kentucky to-
bacco growers in conference at
Washington, with William M. VIII
liams, commissioner of internal rev.
enue. were given rulings entirely
satisfactory to them regarding mat
ters of taxation ir connection with
the use Of Kentucky tobacco for fer

!. w. Newman, of Versailles. pres
ident of the Burley Tobacco Ascot
alton; DR.. S. H. HalleyC;of Lexing-
ton. and Congressman j. Campbell
Cantrill, Of Georgetown, represented
Kentucky growers in the conference
with Commissioner Williams. They
explained to Mr.. Williams that on ac-
count of the condition of the tobacco
market an effort is being made TO
keep the low grade tobacco OF the
market by utilizing it in the manu-
facture Of fertilizer, and the ques-
tion of taxation was raised. 1t was
EXPLAINED that a company has al
ready been organized, with Mr.. New
man at it's head, to handle the fert1-
lizer proposition.
Commissioner Williams held that
a cooperative association grinding
ND low grade tobacco for use as fer
tilizer would not be subject to the
regular tobacco tax, but that a nom
inal bond would be required OF the
manufacturers.
Another matter put mp to Mr.. WI
liams by the Kentuckians was that
of a tax on tobacco sold to foreign
governments. A plen is under con-
sideration for the sales OF q large
