Northern and Central Kentucky and
October / in Southern Kentucky. When
the winters are as mild as those of
1920 and 1921, barley can be sown as
late as wheat. The crop is attacked by
Hessian fly and in sections where
wheat growing is extensive, 1t is I'M
safe to plant barley when there are in
dications that the fly is going to cause
trouble. On rich land, six pecks Of
good seed an acre is sufficient while
less fertile lands should be seeded at
the ratio OF two bushels q nacre. Prep
aratioh OF the land is the same as for
wheat.
There is only one extensively
grown variety OF winter barley, the
Tennessee Winter, which is the COM
mon barley OF Tennessee and Ken
lucky. 1t is perhaps the best variety
known but In some cases is badly
mixed with rye, cheat and other weed
seeds. It also is damaged by both
kinds OF smut. However, bany Of these
foreign seeds can be eliminated by the
tanning mill while the formalin treat
ment will eradicate a good part OF the
smut"

Weak kidneys get weaker fast.

Your neighbors use and recommend
them.

from kidney trouble for many years.
My kidneys were in weak condition
and at times they acted too often. My

rest at night. l had dizzy spells and
could see flashes before my eyes and
everything turned black before me.

BARLEY MAY REPLACE
WHEAT ON MANY FARMS.

Lexington, Ky. - Winter barley bids
fair to replace wheat on many Ken
lucky farms during the coming year,
according to scores of inquiries be-
ing received at the Kentucky Agricul-
tural Experiment Station. Disappoint-
ing returns obtained from wheat dur
ing the last few years are held largely
responsible for the change while many
farmers will switch to barley because
OF its value as hog feed when 1t Is
ground or soaked. Since barley can be
marketed through hogs It also pro-
vides an opportunity for increasing
the returns from the small grain crop
OF the farm, according to c. ]. Kinney,
member of the station agronomy de-
y Winter barley usually is a highly
profitable crop or good land. While
not quite as hardy as wheat, II seldom
ia damaged severed yby winter killing
II seeded early. II is much more likely
to fill out whel than wheat while the
average yield Is much larger, As a
nurse crop for clover and grass, win
ter barley easily is the best grain crop
because OF its early maturity. The
grain ripens about the first Of June
and thus furnishes the earliest feed
crop that can be secured.
THE chief obstacle to the wider pro-
duction OF winter barley in Kentucky
Is that tact that as rule It must bt
seeded before the corn crop can b'
harvested. As n matter OF fact, barley
seeding Is restricted to tobacco GROUND
or fallow land. II is not safe to seeC
the crop later than September in III,

BEEF HERDS SUFFER AS

Lexington, Ky. - Hundreds OF pure

Losses in weight at this time OF the

herd also is marred when the animals

of the best feeds to tide cattle over
during a period of drought such as ne
ing experienced in the state at the
present time. Cows that are nursing
calves should be given grain in addi-
ton to silage, five or six pounds day
being sufficient. About one pound of
this grain mixture shuld cottonseed
meal. Cows without calves can get
along with silage alone.
IF no silage is available, haw may
be used in its place, in which case the
grain feed should be increased to ten
pounds a day for each COW that is
nursing a calf. However, cows that
are not nursing calves may be main
tanned on the hay alone.
Experiences on the college farm in
dictate that owners Of purebred beef
cattle herds should find this method of
feeding a profitable one Breeding
cattle in the college herd have been
given supplementary feeds since the
drought started and this method of
herd management will be continued
until the pastures are revived with fall
rains. Preventing shrinks in cattle by
supplementing the short pastures
should prove economical on every beet
breedin gfarm.
IF silage is fed during tn esummer
1t should be lowered from four to six

FIREBUGS UNCHECKED

THE theory of spontaneous combustion
l. advanced by some Of the officers Of
the State police to explain the continu.
ing destruction of barns and harvested
crops in the ncighborhood Of this city
doesn't carry convincing sound. If dry
weather and the condition of crops in
storage were responsible for more than
thirty fires in this region how are we to
explain the seeming immunity of farm
property in other parts Of Eastern Penn
sylvania and New Jersey, where recent
weather conditions have been identical
with those experienced here?
There is abundant evidence to indi-
cate that the destruction of costly farm
property hereabouts is due to .ncen-
diaries. The police might as we'll admit
this. The State owes it to the farmers
to provide all the additional forces that
may be required to clear UP a very ugly
mystery.

erty, including protection foy educational,

questions of franchise are not considered
in this proposal. it may be contendcd
with some reason that the subject is one

The spectacle of amenability now pre-

DENLY STANDS CORRECTED

VARIOUS rcople will read various
meanings into the text Of the findings
of the Naval Board of Inquiry which,
after irquiring into the flaming charge
of misbehavior and intoXication flung by
Secretary DENLY at the ca!ets who
visited Philadelphia for the Army-Navy
football game, found nothing wrong.
The Naval Board dismissed the charge
in the po;test manner possible in words.
The Navy knows how to protect its
good name without seriously hurting the
feelings of the occasional landiubber who
happens into ntrol Of its affairs. Even
if a few mdshir men We're tempted to
drink, and even if their hair was mussed
on the dance floor, the board would have
been justified in closing its eyes to such
minor infractions Of traditional rule If
il felt that there was no other way in
which to turn aside reckless indict
ment which involved the whole regiment
of middies and their officers.
The fact is, however, that there was
nothing that could be called drunkenness
among the midshipmen. Mr.. DENLY
followed the fashion Of contemporary
WASHINGTON. He lost his head. He flew
too eagerly to the attitude Of outra ged
Righteousness. He owes an apology 20

tatlon of armaments and ratification OF
the Washington conference treaties. If
Europe will heed his instructions on
these subjects, the Senator from Idaho
is willing to admit that America could
lend Il helping hand without fear of cor
ruption.
While his fellow citizens generally are
in no mood to deny this, it is permissible
for some of the number, particularly
those with memories, to question the in
clusion of one significant feature in the
program of virtue. Mr. Borah stipulates
for official confirmation Of the arms
treaties.
His demand acquires special interest
from the fact that his efforts to defeat
these pacts in the Senate were vigorous
and spectacular. To what change Of
heart or adjustment of viewpoint is his
conversion due? Is it possible for Idaho
as we'll as Europe to err?
Whether at the cost Of consistency or
not, Mr.. Borah is now to be found de-
nouncing France and Italy for neglecting
to adopt a course which he formerly
condemned. Indeed his present attitude
suggests that further revisions Of his
original contentious may be in prospect.
1t is not entirely eXtravagant to as
sumo that American membership in the
mathematical League of Nations might
initiate machinery for the accomplish
mcnt Of some of the reforms in Europe,
which Mr.. Borah considers indispensable
to the welfare of civilization. Is his sense
of world pain sufficiently acute to move
him to further reversals Of judgment?

WOMEN AS JURORS

THE suggestion that law be passed
4 eNomptng from jury duty all women
who object to serving is made in the
of women to have their names placed
on the lists Of voters.
In other words, it comes from those
who think that women should be eX-
en,pted from one public duty because of
their unwiIirgncss to perform another
public duty.
When put in this way the logical
falIacy in the suggestion should be evil
dent even TO the illogical.
We DO not mean to say. however, that
the thing ought or ought not to be done.
Just what obligations are to be forced
upon women, now that they are allowed
to vote, has not yet been decided. Large
numbers Of women do not vote. They
insist that they. never asked for the
franchise and that they were content
with the old arrangement. If we may
Judge from the registration lists, less
than half Of the women who might vote
in this city have avaled themselves of
the privilege. Now, the practical ques-
ton is, Shall these women be compelled
to perform functions the exercise of
which they never sought and do not
desire?
This is not q question to be answered
ofFhand What its implications are will
become apparent to the Legislature as
soon a. j.. begins to consider a bill ex-
cmp,lnr women from jury duty when
ever the women choose to ask it.
