DEER IN KENTUCKY Frederick Ilaakin gave in aTent issue of a Louisville paper a description of the success attending the propagation of deer in por tions of Alaska, where the government placed a herd a few years ago, and by protection has greatly multiplied the original number, so that he flesh is utilized instead of other meat in that region. It is perhaps not so well known that the Kentucky Game and 1W, commission is conducting a similar experiment in this state. The spot chosen is a wild section between the Cumberland and Tennessee rivers, in a section locally known as "The Coalings." The commis sion keeps a watchful eye over the preserves and it is aid the people of that section are also careful to see that the animals are no Lillet by unscrupulous hunters. . From a herd of a dozen or more placed there a few years ago U is now said to have increased many fold. There is a wide range for them to run on. and the location of the rivers prevents them straying far. It is said among the old inhabitants that this section was iorunr ly a famous huning ground, even back in the days of the Indians, and if proper protection is given a few more years will bring back some of its former reputation. Owensboro Messenger. There is of course nothing to present the hysterical gentlemen who feel that unless other people's sons are sent from America to fight for the oppressed populations of Asia Minor Uncle Sam will be disgraced, from going into the trenches themselves in some European uniform in that righteous cause, but it seem altogether probable that their conscientious conductions will not carry them to that length. National Republican. AMEN! President Harding states that so long as he is president he will not pardon "any criminal who was guilty of preachin? destruction of the government by force." Amen to that! Loyal Americans who love this country, who believe in it and have faith in its destiny, will approve that decision. Only the fool in his folly frees a madman whe nthat madman is slavering threats and preaching murder. The law of self-preservation applies to a nation as well as to the individual! "Debs the gentle' .rv, L-4r,llv" ha eiven the administration food for thought.

OPINIONS DIFFER ON BONUS The American Legion has reaffirmed its stand for the soldiers' bonus. The resolution was unanimously adopted by the delegates at the convention in New Orleans. That does not mean, however, that all ex-service men are for the bonus. Already an organization has been formed among them for the express purpose of opposing any grant from the Federal government, and many thousands of veterans who take no active part either for or against the bonus are emphatic in their opposition. It is the generally accepted opinion at Washing ton that the high tide of the bonus agitation was reached when the recent bill was passed by Congress only to be vetoed by President Harding. They believe thatbonus advocates never again will be able to muster as many votes for their cause. FAIR CHANCE FOR RAILROADS Over-regulation is the cause ascribed by Secretary Hoover for the ear shortage from which the country is now suffering. He de clares that the railroads have been so hampered by restrictive legisla tion in the last twenty years that they find it difficult to finance the cost of ne wequipment necessary to keep pace with the increasing industrial needs of the country. Mr. Hoover estimates that the car shortage each year levies a charge against the producers and the con sumers of th necessities of life equal to the annual cost of running the government. Fortunately the railroads are not being persecuted now as they once were, and there is a decided tendency to recognize th necessity of a reasonable profit for railroad capital if the transporta tion system is to be maintained. ' HARDING'S GREATEST ACCOMPLISHMENT. Not in modern times has there developed a stronger influence for world peace than the naval limitations treaty of the Washington armaments conference. Italy and France have thus far failed to ratify it, and have held up the reforms that it provides. Both coun tries are influential members of the league of nations, the professed object of which is to work for world peace. Is it not strange that a non-member nation initiated the naval treaty, while two member nations are preventing its execution T 8 COMMENT i. v O I M.H'k u,.'Ki:i ii v;. I'..

STEEL CO., Inc. 4 West Secrmd Street OCTOBER IS BEST MONTH TO PICE BREEDING HEN'S. Lexington, Ky., Within the next four or five weeks every farmer in Kentucky should select and murk the best hens in his poultry flock in or der that these birds may be used in special breeding pens next spring, ac cording to J. R, Smyth, poultry ex tension specialist of the College of Agriculture. Many farmers who keep poultry as a sideline as well as scores of experienced poultry breeders in the staie have found that the egg produc tio no fmost any flock can be increas ed by selecting the highest producing birds in the flock and mating them with desirable males fo rthe produc tion of hatching eggs. October is perhaps the best month for selecting such a pen since it is possible to pick out the high produc ing hens at that time of the year. Farmers who wait until spring to pick out their breeding hens will find that they are unable to distinguish easily between the heavy layers and those that produce only a small number of eggs during the year. After the hens have been selected, they should be marked with leg bands or some other .1 ...! .... In nrAvr that tllPV TMAV be TeC- lognized I nthe spring when the time Uor mating arrives. I Only those hens that are not moult ing or those that have just started should be selected when the breeding hens are being picked In October. The yellow color also thould be faded from the shanks and beaks of birds belong ing to vellow-shanked breeds. Vigor- ous hens having a bright clear, protr. ' inent eye with an eyelid that is free j from fat usually will have many ci (the characteristics that are desirabU i in breeding hens. It is important that all hens selected for the breeding pens be laying at this time of the year. Soft, pliable plevic bones that are wide apart and a soft tillable abdomen that has at least la and one-half fingers depth between the jdeiic bones and the end o fthe breast bone usually can betaken as an indication that the hen is still laying. No bird should he se lected that U not a good representative of the breed. From 1 to lsi leghorn hens should be pcike for every rooster that will be used in the spring breed ing and from 1 to 12 birds of other breeds. According to a very old superstition the finding of a spider on the wedding gown by the bride is considered a sure token of happiness to couie.
