Manure Yield in Kentucky
Worth Millions to Farmers

LEXINGTON, Ky:-KentuCky has
enough livestock on her farms to yield
annually at least 100000 600 tons OF
manure worth millions Of dollars for
building up farm lands, according TO
soils and crops specialists of the
College OF Agriculture. In view of
the fact that Kentucky is livestock
state, this manure should be a big
factor in keeping soils OF the state
rich. Halt of this manure is produced
in the winter when stock are on feed.
Ii is at this time OF the year that
special effort to save the fertility in
this material is Deeded.
- "Half the fertili2ing value OF man
nre is in the liquid portion which may
be essily and cheaply saved BY using
plenty of bedding. 1t has been "sti,
mated that by this one means alone.
Todd county farmers last year saved
1000 tons of manure more than or
ldinarily would have been saved. Tn"
best farmers in the state now keep
manure in stables or feeding sheds
until il can be spread on the fields,
instead OF throwing II IN piles outSid"
where II teaches and heats and loses
muehof its fertili2ing value well
bedded and tramped stall will keep
manure IN good condition.
"Many farmers in the State now
spread the manure on their farms as
fast as IL is hauled to the fields. The
old practice OF throwing the material
in small piles to be spread later is
expensive and wasteful. Most farm
ers use light application to cover as
many acres as possible. An applica-
ton of five tons TO the acre has been
found to give good results.
"Most of the farm manure in Ken
lucky is used on tobacco or corn land.
This makes il necessary TO spread ii
as fast as il Is produced in the winter
or hold it until spring before spread
ing. On level land, and especially
where there is sod. winter spreading
can be done without loss \ few
farmers make n practice OF top dress
ing young grass and clover with ma
nure. This helps considerably in
getting and keeping stand"

WHOLE WORLD WILL
HANG u. S. STOCKINGS

The fact that the foreign world can
on Christmas Eve hang up 20.O0O,OOO
pairs of new artificial silk stockings
fresh from the factories in the United
States, illustrates the persistency with
which our manufacturers are tighten
ing their grip on world markets. aC-
cOrding to the foreign trade record of
the National City Bank of New York
The latest export figures, according
to the report, indicate that the artii-
cial silk hosiery sent ont of the United
States in the calendar year 1922 will
approximate 20.O00,000 pairs.
The increase in our exports of this
new product of the American factory.
is especially interesting in view of the
fact that the industry is one of com
paratively recent development with
us. Prior to the war most of the
worlds artificial silk was produced in
Europe, especially Belgium, Germany
and France, but with the Interruptions
which the war caused in the industry,
the output of artificial silk yarn in
the United States grew from ! ,500,000
pounds in 1913 to 2O,000,0O0 in 1922
The value of the artificial silk yarn
produced in the United States in 1922
is nearly S50DOO,OOO and the factory
value of thesfinished goods produced
therefrom about S75,00O,OOO. ..E.....
The uses of artificial silk which,
as is well known, is made chiefly
from wood fiber are expanding and il
is now utilized in nearly all classes
of knit goods as well as draperies
trimmings and many other lines of
this general character. =. "

THIEVES E;S ENTER
WALKER STORE

Following closely on the heels of
the robbery of Tie Harold home on
College street and that of Lawson
Stapletn on Church street, burglars
entered the store of Mrs. E. j. Walk
er Saturday night, taking a consid-
cradle amount in silver.
Gaining entrance from the rear
Of the building, through heavy iron
bars, the robbers dropped to the floor
on the inside, going 10 a drawer
where the money was deposited dur
ing the day, and found $40 in silver,
which they carried with them. But
for the foresight of Mrs. Walker, a
considerable amount in currency
would have been looted also, this
having been taken with her earlier in
the evening.
The thieves boldly made their exit
through the front door leading on
jackson street, leaving it wide open.
A travelling man, passing by at IL
O'Clock Sunday morning saw the
door atar, but thought the proprietor
was inside Again passing there at
4 O'Clock in the afternoon and the
dor still remaining open, he notified
Mrs. Walker, who came to the store
and found the evidence of the thieves.

First, he breased the ways for

Brookhart's success in his first

chiefly due to the fact that the

tors who were not enthusiastic
about the subsidy, but might have
lacked the stamina to oppose adj

SHOULD USE WORDS
TO FIT THEIR USER

Did YOU ever stop to think that
words may be like clothes-too large
and unpleasant to give the party VINO
hears or reads them? Yet this. u.s.
indeed, often the case. And every
person should choose his words with
care, SO they may not be too big, like
fathers trousers on his little son, or
too little, like a hand-me-down suit
three sizes too small for growing
boy. Besides, a person who uses
words that do not convey his exact
meaning loses the force of an idea
that might accomplish much in deed
and action. A lack of skill in the use
of these tools Of thought may serve
to keep one down in the world when
he belongs on top. If you once learn
to use dictionary you will be sur
prised at the rapidity with which you
will advance. We had in mind the
immense benefit to our readers when
we chose The New Universities Die
tionary for general distribution in this
community. Our coupon, now being
published for the last few times in
