WHY TRADE AT HOME?

Ms ny people ask that question. bot
few trouble TO seek the answer.
Why should people patronize their
home merchants?
Because it is great saving of time,
and time today represents money.
Because the home merchant can only
remain III business through the pat
ronage of home people. and a town
without merchants would be a sorry
place in which 70 live.
Because the home merchant sells
goods that do NOT have To be returned
because of defects or inferiority. 1t is
the only way in which IA local msn can
hold his trade.
Because the local merchant is not in
the habit of charging excessive prices
You may al times be able To get the
same article elsewhere at a little less
money. but the quality will invariably
be reduced in proportion to the price.
The local merchant cannot afford to
sell cheap stuff. His customers
would not tolerate il.
Because the prosperity of "A cOmmun-
iJy depends upon the amount of money
in circulation in the community. and
that is regulated mainly 10y the market
ing of surplus products abroad and
keeping as much as possible Of the re
cCipts at home.
Because "A community that spends
most Of its money abroad for supplies
soon finds that il has but little left for
the purchase of additional supplies.

bend should not 90 UNDECIDED 10y adults.

ROME HOUSE HUNGRY
Shortage of Dwellings in Eternal
City Serious Problem.
One Hundred Thousand More Rooms
Are Needed to House Population
People Live In Immoral Con-
ditions Because Of Shortage.

Rome.-The "house hunger" as the
lack Of dwellings is called In Italian,
Is increasing In Rome. According to
a statement by Doctor Raimondi, mu-
nicipal councillor, Rome, a city Of
100000 Inhabitants, needs 100000
more rooms to house its population.
The surplus of people is now living
In unhealthy and immoral conditions,
Doctor Raimondi says. There are
some quarters Of the city where each
room is occupied by from six to eight
persons in the greatest promiscuity,
and at Porta Metronia, one of the
poorest districts Of Rome, % persons
are living in three rooms.
Also at the very gates Of Rome q
portion of the population has reverted
to the troglOdytic period and lives in
grottoes excavated in the hills, while
others have built straw huts to house
their families.
This state Of affairs is q conse-
quence of the war. On account of the
rise in the price Of building materials,
the construction Of houses ceased
practically entirely for about eight
years. The government has tried to
meet the situation by appropriating
SOO,OO0,OOO lire Cat par 100000, OOO) ,
to be lent at per cent to workmen,
civil servants, etc., for the purpose Of
home building.
Such amount, however, is not
enough, according to Doctor Raj
mondi, for it provides only for the con-
struction of about 10000 rooms. This,
together with 10000 rooms which are
being built by private individuals
without state subsidy, makes a total
of 10000 rooms, leaving 10000 more
to be built within the next three years.
A further subsidy Of 600, 100000 lire
Is being agitated.

ROCK PHOSPHATE PROVES BEST
ON UNLMED SOILS

Field tests that have been carried
on in the State for a number of
years to help farmers get bigger
crop yields prove that rock phos-
phate is one of the best sources of
PHOSPHORUS for thousands of acres
of unlimed soils in Kentucky, soils
and crop specialists at the College
or Agriculture say. Results from
from this material have been espe-
cially good on coal measure soils in
the western part Of the State and
on the Waverley soils bordering the
Bluegrass region. Soils in both
these regions have little or no nat
ular linemeone in them. On the
coal measure soils, the average crop
yields have been eight per cent.
great from raw rock phosphate than
from acid phosphate when the same
outlay of cash for fertilizers was
made in both cases.
On the field maintained by the
Kentucky Agricultural Experiment
Station at Greenville to represent
thousands of square miles of terri
tory in the western coal fields. raw
rock phosphate has made the yields
OF corn, wheat and soybeans one
fourth larger than they were when
no treatment was given the soils.
Theyield of clover on this field has
been more than double by use of
the rock phosphate. This field gets
an application of 1000 pounds of
raw rock phosphate an acre once
every four years.
Best results are obtained from
rock phosphate if the farmer uses
it with the idea of permanently
making the soil richer. This mate
rial does not give quick results un-
less large quantities Of it are used
at one application. The cash out
lay for 1000, pounds, which would
be about the right amount to put on
an acre, would be bout SIS. How
ever, this is enough fertilizer for
four or five years.
Stable manure should be used
with the rock phosphate when it is
applied to soils that are very poor
in order to furnish nitrogen and
humus. 1t is not uncommon to find
soils so badly flashed os so poor in
humus, due to careless farming, that
no form of PHOSPHORUS would show
results. Building up the humus
supply of these soils by using ma
nure or growing lebumes is essen
tial before good returns will come
from PHOSPHORUS. "a. AA

HOARY BRIDEGROOMS

Disparity in ages counts little as
barrier to matrimony in the noun
tain section of Kentucky, as shown
the other day when a 96-year-old
groom married a girl 16 years old,
though as a rule there is less than
eighty years between the bride and
the groom.
Pension investigators sent to the
mountain section found that many
such marriages were contracted by
war veterans drawing large pen
sions that would go to their youth
full widows after they were dead.
Whatever the reason, there seems
nothing to prevent a mountain pa
triarch from finding a young wo-
man who will take him as in the
case of the late Uncle John"
Schell, who was survived by widow
nearly a century his junior.
When the Kentucky Legislature
ten years ago passed the Confeder-
ate pension law, it took cognizance
of such a situation by making the
act retroactive in case Of pension for
widows, excluding widows married
subsequent to 1890. This provision
of the Confederate pension act cuts
out Of a pension any widow that
became the bride of veteran since
that time.

BOYS UNUSUAL EXPERIENCE
Black Snake, Pursusd by Harvester
Crow. Seeks Refuge in
eeys Blouse.

Norwich Conn.-Ray Davis, the son
Of G. Warren Davis, had an unusual
experience with q black snake. The
boy was lying on the ground in the
hay field where his older brother and
other men were getting in the crop
when they stirred up a three-foOt
black snake.
The snake made the best speed he
could to get to a place Of safety, and
as he Topped along the ground spied a
refuge in the bullying blouse Of the boy
and darted in through gap where a
button was loose. Almost before the
boy knew it the snake was wrapped
around his body inside the blouse.
At once the haymakers knew that
something was happening, for the boy
let out yell that brought his brother
rushing to the spot. He snatched out
the snake and snapped it's head off.
