Remarkable Weather
We are having the most re
markable weather known here in
a quarter of a century. The warm
spring-like days have certainly
been enjoyed. More spring plow

for years at this season, and the
ground is breaking as well as in

yet - to come, according to the
staterrjents of the weather proph
ets, for they say we are to have
some severe winter weather dur
ing February and March. Here's
hoping the predictions will prove
false.

To Our Friends Interested In Tobacco: .,.
; THE MADISON HOUSE HAS JUST CLOSED ANOTHER SUCCESSFUL WEEK

jbeen higher than at present.

at average of $18.08, one basket bringing $30; Tudor & Moberley sold 3805 lbs., average
nf MintPr Rr f.riamhArlain ealfl RSQft lhe at nvorada nf $14 0,0 rwvar twrkthirra
j this crop averaged $17. Tips frozen and damaged often keep the general average low,
even for an excellent crop. Price Williams sold 895 lbs., averaged $16.50; Haden Bros.
sold 1005 lbs), averaged $17.95; Ross & VanArsdale sold 2770 lbs. for $443.50.
. You will remember that our market is stronger now and has been throughout
this year than it has ever been with us, quality of tobacco considered. And we know that
our buyers expect to keep this market right up to the best in the country till we close.
Market your tobacco at once, and continue to sell with the house that gets you

. Take Me Home
Take me back to old Kentucky, ".
Where the crystal waters glint
As they dance along the borders,
Through the fragrant beds of mint;
Where the lasses and the horses
Are but terms for grace and speed,
And the whiskey and the statesman
Are both noted for their "bead."
Take me back to old Kentucky,
Where strong waters flow so free;
Where they cool off in the summer,
' .Neath the spreading julep, tree;
Where the "high balls" and the "low
balls"
Always hit the center square;
And you never have next morning,
Rheumatism in your hair.
Take me back to old Kentucky,
Where the blue grass decks the hills,
Where they have no use for water
Save for operating mills:
For they scorn it as a beverage,
On that dark and bloody ground
As they claim e'er since the deluge v
That it tastes of sinners drowned.
Take me back to old Kentucky,
To the state where I was born;
Where the corn is full of kernels,
And the Colonels full of "corn"
Where to disapprove that beverage
Is to toy with sudden death;
And they have a bonded warehouse
. Where they barrel up their breath.
Take me back to old Kentucky,
Let me hear the pistols pop,
See the pigs and politicians
With their snouts deep in slopr
Take me back to those blue mountains,
Where they argue points with lead;
But you needn't rush the matter
Take me back when I am dead.
