f The News: Referring to my
ent (n a recent Issue of the News
tire co the organization of a corn
m this county, I beg to submit a
r which I have received from Mr.

WWW JC
' Ia his letter Mr. Mutchler ays: "I
ve just received n clipping from the
ckenrldge News, In which you nre
cd as being a great believer In the
anlzatlon. of a corn club In Breck-
idge county. 1 am exceedingly glad
see this and I want to tell you now,
1 1 will do all I can to help you in
organization of this club, and will
nlsh the directions for the club, and
'irlll come over sometime after the mid-
lie of Januftrv, and look over the prob
Tmm with you.
tuelieve If ysu can get the Fiscal
Ciftrt to appropriate $100 to be given
ijnirlzes to the boys, and some of the
business men to add something to this
sum, you can make a very fine showing,
As head of the corn club work in the
stat 6 of Kentucky, I pledge you my
earnest support In this matter. I shall
soon publish my report for the Federal
Government, in which I shall show the
names of over fifty boys in the corn
clubs ot the State, who have this year
grown over 100 bushels to the acre.
The State. Cha"rnplon l:ns grown 118
bushels and 55 pounds of shelled corri
by weight. The next highest grew 1-10
bushels and33 pounds. Both of these
are accurate and were verified bv a
umber of witnesses and I measured
the corn and ground myself. If you
will let me know what time will suit
yoH we can arrange for taking up the
work In your county."
There is no doubt but that a contest
I of this kind in our county will result in
0 good.
" If there aro any boys in Breckenridge
4county who have enterprise enough to
iget into this movement. let them speak
1 up. Very respectfully,

Baptist Church Notes.
The Cloverport church enters upon ,
the new year encouraged by the results
of the past few months and hopeful as
to the outlook for the new year.
' 000
The church was for the first three
months of I9I2 without a pastor, the
present pastor entering upon the work
In April for half time. Since Septem
ber the first the church has had preach
ing every Sunday. Since April the first
14 members have been received, 13 by
baptism, and since the first of Septem
ber the financial receipts from all de
partments of the church work have
averaged 140.00 per month. For the
last quarter of 1q12 the average at
tendance in the Sunday school was 128,
and the collections for the quarter, in
cluding the Sunday school treat,
amounted to the handsome sum of 100.
000
The church is using tho Duplex En
velope System, the latest thing in the
way of church envelopes, for this year.
It is a double envelope, one end is for
pastor's salary and Incidentals, and
the other end is for missions and benev
olence. One end is printed In black and
the other in red. Each contributor is
provided with 02 envelopes in a carton
and will have the privilege of making
an offering ''Upon the first dav of each
week as the Lord has'prospered them."
000
At the business meeting last Wednes
day ulght, the cnurch Instructed the
pastor to secure suitable he'p for an
evangelistic meeting to begin about the
fourth Sunday in May. The pastor is
planning the organization of a Ba'raca.
Chorus of 50 voices to be In readiness
for the meeting, as well as at other
times and for the regular services on
occasions.
000
Our aim for lol3, in part, Is to bring
at least 52 persons into the fellowship
of the church, to reach an average at
tendance of 200 in the Sunday school,
to average $150 per month for all pur
poses, to build some Sunday school
rooms to accomodate the Primary and
Junior Departments and the Baraca
and Fidelis classes, to put a furnace In
the church, to put the church audlto
rlum in first-class condition, lowering
the ceillug, papering or frescoing th
Ulterior, re-painting both the Interior
and exterior wood work. All this may
not be done, but it is well to have an
aim and reach it if possible, and this is
a reasonable aim.

WHEN MICROBES ARE BUSIEST
Although Never Dormant, It Has
Been Proved They Have Special
Hours of Activity.
A celebrated scientist has made tho
Interesting announcement that there
aro more microbes in tho air at nino
olclock In tho morning and at nlno
o'clock at night than during any oth
er periods of tho day. Ho has also
discovered that the percentage of mi
crobes In tho atmosphere is less at
three o'clock In tho morning and three
o'clock In the afternoon than at any
other times. Tho explanation ad
vanced for tho partiality of tho mi
crobe for nlno o'cldck n. m. and p. m.
is that tho "microbo hour" is con
trolled by tho movements of people.
From flvo to nine In tho morning they
aro going from their homes to their
working places, and from fivo to nlno
In tho ovenlng they aro again Jour
noylng through tho streets, cither
homeward bound or in search ot
pleasure.
Ho noted that at or about six
o'clock every morning and ovenlng
there wero indications of tho ap
proach of tho microbe "ruBh" hour.
From that time on until nlno o'clock
tho atmosphere became more and
moro crowded with germs of all
kinds, some bad, some good; and
then, immediately after nine o'clock,
tho tide began to ebb, until it was
always loweBt round about three
o'clock. According to his researches,
after lunch is the safest time for a
nap.
