be given this winter and spring on

Christian b,e Farmers' Union. . Prof. E. J.
Kinney, of the State Agricultural
College at Lexington, will begin
the series with an instructive talk
on improved corn culture.
I The time has long since past
when the farmer can afford the
old methods of our fathers which
did very well on twenty dollar
land, but in these days when good
farming land is selling around a
hundred and fifty dollars he is
losing money who does not know
the modern methods, One of the
best ways to make the high
priced land pay its just per cent
of interest is to leam how to
make it produce more and better
corn.
Prof. Kinney's lecture on better
corn is timely, as the corn plant
ing season is upon us. The gen
eral public as well as the farmers
of the county are invited to attend
the lectures. . .
