Tobacco Stripping
Now In Full Blast

The damp, cloudy weather and
light rain of the past few hours has
brought tobacco in case and growers
are now stripping in earnest. The
crop in Montgomery and all counties
east is said to be one of the best
grown in years and is sure to com
mand a much increased price over
the 1921 crop. It cured up beautifully
and is said to have produced a good
acreage. although possibly a little
lighter than usual The crop of bur
ley taken as a whole is said to be
short and it is predicted that the bet
ter grades win command splendid
prices. The rain is God-send to this
community, for it is not only needed
to bring tobacco into case, but pas
lures are very dry and stock water
is being hauled in many instances.
The loose leaf houses are expected
to open about December 10, which
will give the farmers a portion OF
their tobacco money for Christmas.

Tobacco Growers
Ask No Favors

Discussing the question OF the tax
alton of tobacco in the hands of the
growers, which was presented to the
state tax commission by Vice Presi-
dents James N. Kehoe and Bush w.
Allin. of the Burley Tobacco Growers
Cooperation Association, last week.
Mr.. Kehoe said the growers we're not
asking any favors ar any special con-
sideration, but that they simply ask
ed their constitutional right to exemp-
ton of farm products from taxation
for year after they are grown.
"We simply claim that. under the
constitution. farm products are ex-
empt from taxation for one year from
the time they are grown" said Mr..
Kehoe. "The purpose of the trainers
of the constitution in that exemption
was to encourage agriculture, develop
full agricultural production and, con-
sequently, reasonably low prices for
food products.
I'VE learned at Frankfort that the
farmers of Kentucky have been pay;
ing taxes on farm products assessed
at $36,000,000, when as a matter of
law that property ought not to have
been assessed at all. The amount we
expect to save the farmers who are
members of the hurley cooperative Is
a tremendous sum, hundreds of thou.
sands of dollars in the long run. and
our contention is that none of this
tax should be paid by the growers.
"Our tobacco in the hurley district
is not grown in the meaning Of the
constitution until about October 1.
when it is cut. From that date until
October following. or rather Sep
tember 80 following. it is exempt
from taxation. If We have any of il
still left on July 1. that portion Of
the crop will be subject to taxation.
"The 1922 crop. which was cut
about October 1, similarly. will not be
taxable until October 1. 1928. and will
mt be actually taxable then until the
following July. as there is no taxa
tion date. or date when property is
listed for taxation until the following
July. which would be applicable to
that crop.
st is extremely improbable that at
any time we shall have tobacco ON
hand as late as July, from the pre-
vious years crop. so that l am GER
tain the tobacco grawers' crops in our
hands will not be subject to state,
county and city taxation"

Japs Cannot

Japanese cannot be naturalized in
the United States and cannot become
citizens of this country. the supreme
court of the United States decided
yesterday in its firstc ontsruction OF
federal statutes bearing on the sub
ject. IS
The decision, which was the first
delivered by Justice Sutherland as q
member OF the court was handed
down in case brought by Takao ozar
wa. who in 1914 applied for citizen
ship in Hawaii.
The ruling is expected to attract
wide attention not only in the United
States, but abroad, Notwithstanding
the failure of the court to make any
reference to- its diplomatic signifi-
canoe. The case has been long pend
ing in the supreme court and last
term when reached for argument
during the conference on limitation
of armament and far eastern ques.
tions. its consideration was postpon-

of justice.
No reference is to be found in the

Turkey Money
Now Coming In

The Thanksgiving turkey market is
now on In this section in full blast
and many birds are being slaughtered
at the local poultry houses which will
be shipped to the eastern markets.
Montgomery county is reported as
having about an average crop and the
price being paid is 33 cents In the
country or "a cents delivered to this
city. Taking the country as whole.
turkeys are said to be plentiful. and
II is likely the birds for the Christ
mas market will not command as
good price as at present. The "tur-
key money is no small item to the
women OF this section, and the price
being received for same will have a
tendency to help in all lines. There
is good money in turkeys and we be-
lieve it would be profitable IL more
of them were raised in this county.
