 TESTZlNONYhASDLSCLOSED
BATTLESHIP HITS
 SCHOONER AT SEA
Guns and Other Equipment On U. s. $. North
 Dakota Damaged

Boston, Jan. 4.-The battleship day that she had been in collision with the British schooner T. K. Bent ley off Cape Cod last night. The bat tleship turned back to the navy yard here for repairs. The schooner was said to be in need of immediate as sistance and the naval tug Mohave was sent out from here. No one was injured.
 The battleship's shutters and eleva- tor were damaged and other slight breakage was caused. Captain Trench reported the North Dakota was mak- ing four knots on her return to the navy yard which she had left yes terday for winter maneuvers off Guantanamo.
 The schooner's damage was report ed as largely loss of headgear. The Y. K. Bentley, Captain Berry in com- mand. was last reported at St. George, N. B., bound for Norwalk Conn. She registers about 500 tons.
 The schooner also sustained hole in her side above the water line. She was reported not leaking. but the North Dakota stood by her until the tug arrived. The latter took her in tow for this port, and said that she expected to arrive tonight. The North Dakota was steaming slowly through mist and heavy seas and it would be later afternoon before she got to port it was said.
 In addition to the damage first re- ported, the North Dakota's starboard whaleboat was demolished, and fit tngs on that side bent or broken. The extent of damage to guns and mounts was not readily determined, but the training and elevating systems were thrown out of adjustment.
 The schooner was said to have been first seen by the battleship Lookout on the starboard bow, too close aboard and too late to avoid the col lision.

COURT TO CONVENE.
 MILITIA ON GUARD
Troops With Rifles and Machine Guns to Attend Trial of a Kentucky Feud- ist---Trouble Was Revived on
 Christmas Day.

Manchester, Ky, Jan. l5.--Armed with rifles and two machine guns, 30 state guardsmen, under command of Maj. James K. Dillon, arrived here late today, and tomorrow morning will go on duty at the Clay county court house, where Circuit court will con- vene for the trial of Steve Martin, al- legged feudist, charged with the mur- der of Wood Burge.
 Troops were ordered here by Gov Edwin P. Morrow at the request of Judge Hiram Johnson, whose first of ficial act after assuming his duties on January i was to discharge the Petit and Grand Juries in an effort, he said, to clean up Clay county. The request was made following the circulation of reports that the Martins and Philpots, relatives of the defendants, were plan ming to march here, 100 strong, to pre- vent the conviction of Steve Martin, "even if they have to blow up the courthouse.' Members of the Burge clan also are planning to attend the trial in large numbers, it is said. $ The Martin Burge feud was revived on Christmas Day, when three men were killed and several injured in battle in which, it is said, the bodies of the slain were allowed to remain lying on the ground for hours because their knsmen were afraid to attempt to remove them.
 This is the sixth time in the past 12 months that state troops have been or dered out in Kentucky to protect Cir cuit courts.

TRAVELLING MEN WILL FLY,
 SAYS E. RICKENBACkER
America's Famous Ace, Now Auto Manufacturer, Plans to Make His
 Jumps" By Aeroplane.
rn,ernat,onal News service.

(By International News Service.) ti Springfield, H., Jan. 16.-Traveling salesmen making their jumps" be- tween points by airplane is not a dream, but soon will be reality.
 Such is the statement of Captain Eddie Rickenbacker, Americas "king of the airD during the war, who will soon make an experiment of this kind. The flying "ace' is now con nected with an automobile firm sell ing a machine which is his own pro- duct.
 "Rick" designed the engine himself and is aiding in putting the car on the market. Trains travel too slow ly for Rickenbacker, who says he will soon introduce the travelling sales man of the air"
 Commercial flying will be casu- al fact before long," he said, while here on a business trip. For in- stance, I'm planning to cover a terri tory of ten thousand miles this spring in the interest of my business by plane, which would ordinarily take at least seven months and require sever al men for the job. l shall do this in one month"
 Colonel A. F. Lorenzin, who accom- panied Rickenbacker on his trip here, said railroad travel is very irksome for the war hero and that he pines for the air and the speedy motor.

TRUCK GROWING SITUATION.

The move to unite farmers of the county into a single unit for truck growing and marketing is misunder- stood by many. 1t is not the pur- pose of those who are urging this move to induce farmers to plunge into truck growing but rather to encour- age large number of farmers to grow a small acreage of these crops.
 With cotton as uncertain as it is farmers are searching for another money crop. Truck crops have the ad- vantage that they require but little acreage .and small outlay. They offer the opportunity for some early money which farmers are needing. It would seem but reasonable that a small acreage of truck crops on each farm which is located in reach of a ship ping point would be good business policy for the farmers of the county.
 Radishes Quick Producers.
 The radish crop for instance is but a small risk. Ten pounds of seed is sufficient to SOW an acre. The crop IS harvested early in April and there IS minimum of labor required to grow this crop. At least, this crop offers to farmers the chance of get ting some money at tax paying time. The land is then ready for any other crop which might be wanted and the residue of the fertilizer remains in the soil. It is true that the crop is some what uncertain of profitable returns. but there is little at stake. Why not take a chance at some early money.
 With good markets radishes bring in a handsome return. A return of S5O0 per acre is not uncommon while $lOO per acre is very ordinary. A half acre or acre of radishes will not break any one should the market be unfavorable, with a favorable market the money comes in at time when if is most needed. We can grow q sniff cient acreage of truck crops and at the same time never notice the re- duction in our acreage of cotton, corn and hay crops.
