THE DEBT OF HONOR
Recalling Americas Entrance in
World War, April g, 1917.

Four years ago this day the United
States went to war by vote OF Con-
gress. Anticipating the declaration,
young men had been thronging the
recruiting Offices for weeks previous,
asking for a chance to wear their
country's uniform. Soon afterward the
Selective Service act was passed,
which put all young men at the dis
posal of the Government
Boys in khaki and in Navy blue
we're heroes everywhere AS they
marched away from home the crowds
mingled tears and cheers with protes-
tations that soldiers and sailors, re-
turned from the shadow OF death,
would have their country at their feet
eager to make all right for them
Most of the heroes of four years
ago are back in their old routine,
struggling along in the same old ways.
But many thousands OF them are
buried where they fell on the battle
fields of France, and thousands more,
NAMED, broken, poisoned. are in
American ospitals-forgotten
1t is the shame of America that
faith is not kept with its heroes who
still suffer from the effects of the
worlds holocaust of youth.

KENTUCKIANS PAID
OVER SEVEN MILLION IN
TAXES TO u. S. GOVT.

kentuckians paid $6,605, l3i.32 in
income tax to Collector OF Internal
Revenue Elwood Hamilton during the
month of March, and total OF ST.
231 ,Sjl.j9 in taxes was paid during
the month, according to a recapitula-
ton of the months collections. This
is a falling off in total tax collected
Of $1,6O6,2s6.61 when compared with
March 1920. There is. however. an
increase of $261,O32O6 over March
last year in the amount OF income tax
collected
The decrease in the total amount
collected in March this year from the
amount collected in March 1920. is
attributed largely to the refusal to per-
NIT whisky to be withdrawn from
warehouses. In March 1920 whiskey
valued at $s24,O0O was Withdrawn,
while in the March just passed only
$4,000 worth of liquor was removed.
Another reason for the decrease is
said to be the falling off in excise
taxes.-Louisville Post

Insidious propaganda alleging that
the farmer is being combined against
by large interests of the country was
charged by Prof T. X. Bryant, Asst.
Director of The Kentucky University
College of Agriculture, in an address
to farmers and breeders at the Louis
vile Livestock Exchange, Monday
noon. Prof Bryant warned the farm
ers against such reports, defining their
menace, and urge the farmers to a
waken to the need for better bred
livestock as move to maintain their
independence.
Farmers also were told that they
must take their losses as business men
did and build for the future on a
sound economic basis by abolishing
waste. The complete abolition of the
scrub sire was urged as the first step
with the principle that in the future
the ownership of scrub stock would
be badge of inefficency.
Prof Bryant's address was the
second MONDAY talk in the series
planned by the College of Agriculture
in support of the Farmer5s Better
Sire Sale, to be held June end under
the direction of The Kentucky Pure
Bred Livestock Association and The
Louisville Exchange az the Bourbon
Stock Yards
The Idea That Prevails.
81 find this idea prevalent that
some interests are combined against
the farmer" said Prof. Bryant. "One
hears it said that the fertilizer people
are down on the farmer and that the
implement people and SO on are try
ing to gouge the farmer. The term
5 middle man is used and some farm
ers feel that it is the common enemy,
but if one stops to think and reflect,
re will find that no one is down on
The farmer 1t is not to their interests
to see the farmer put out of business.
The farmers have in a good many
instances the idea that everyone with
whom they deal is an enemy. This
must be overcome. What we could
get at is to learn how to adjust things
and to get them on an economic
basis. The world is not going to
tolerate paying more for an article
because it was produced in an extra
VACANT way. The cost of production
must be cut down, or the final selling
price will be prohibitive
In the Blue Grass Section.
AS an illustration take an outfit
saw near Lexington the other day in
field; there were nine mules, nine
plows, six negroes and six white men.
Now what do you think that corn is
going to cost on the market, counting
the cost of its production.
1t also costs more to produce these
poor animals | saw in the stocHyards
today than it would to produce a pure
bred animal 1t is to the interests CT
the stockyards, the livestock buyers,
as we'll as to all. who wear clothes
and eat to- see that better methods of
production are practiced. The first
gthing is to get better sires. better
tfef bulls.
" We are going into every county
where livestock can be produced to
sell plan whereby the farmer can
produce better stock than ever before.
Outlined Six Plans.
Prof Bryant then outlined six plans
that had been adopted to promote the
sale of pure bred bulls and to insure
their fullest distribution over the
state, adding that the movement had
the support of all the bankers, bust
ness men and the general public in
