Kentucky -Where She Stands.
. Let's put "Kentucky where she be
longs. There has been too much of
this "flne-horses-prett.y womeu-good-whiskey"
talk for the good of the
State. Even a great majority of we
Kentuckians don't know how high our
Commonwealth ranks with other
States Here are" a 'few facts that
possibly you didn't know:
Kentucky has the largest white pop
ulation of any State south ofthe Ohio
river.
Seventy-live per cent of its popula
tion is rural.
There are more people in Kentucky
worth $5,000 and over, and more witli
incomes of 32.500 per vear and over
than in any State in the South.
Kentucky leads ail States in" the
Union in thoroughbred horses, in to
bacco, hemp and sorghum cane. Our
tobacco crop in 1915 was 360,000,000
pounds, more than one-third of the
total crop of America
Kentucky-ranks fifth in the produc
tion of coal.
Kentucky is the tenth State in the'
production of corn, showing last year
a yield of over 115,000,-000 bushels.
There are nearly 15,000,000 bearing
fruit trees in Kentucky, and last year
Kentucky was the seventh State in
th Union in the productiorTbf apples
our crop being 12,500,000 worth to the
producer seventy -on e'eents per bushel.
There are more registered Jersey
cattle in Shelby county, Ky 7' than in
any county in any "State in America.
The value of farm property in Ken
tucky is over 8800,000,000, being larger
than that of any other State in the
South
Among the States south of the Ohio
river Kentucky leads in the produc
tion of dairy and beef cattle, horses,
poultry, sheep and wool. It leads al
so in corn, wheat and tobacco, and
comes second in hay and potatoes.
There are more silos in Kentucky
than in all the other States of the
Central South put together.
In 1914 there were registered in
Kentucky only 8,750 automobiles.
Today the registration is over 30.000.
There were twenty-two States in
the Union last year that produced
farai products valued at over $100,
000,000, Kentucky was one of these.
Kentucky leads all States of the
South, in its total poultry products,
that is, eggs and fowls.
Kentucky also leads the South in
the purchase and use of farm imple
ments and machinery. -E-Town News.
Danger Signal.
If the fire bell should rind would
you run and stop it or go and help to
put out the fire? It is much the same
way with a coug. A cough is a dan
ger signal as much as a fire bell. Tou
should no more try to suppress it than
to stop a fire bell when it is ringing,
but should cure the disease that causes
the coughing. This cau nearly always
be done by taking Chamberlain'sCough
Remedy. Many have use it with the
most-beneficial results. It is especial
ly valuable for the persistent cough
that so often follows a bad cold or an
attack of the grip. Mrs. Thomas
Beechlng, Andrews, Ind., writes:

which includes Clinton, Wayne, Cum

The New Revenue Bill.
The new revenue bill, prepared by
the State Tax Commission and given
to the public on Monday, is a measure
that will raise sufficient money to
meetrall the expenses of the State and
in a few years will furnish sufficient
funds, to retire the present deficit.
The measure, in addition to meeting
the-pressing demands of the State, in
creases by more than a million dollars
annually the revenues of the state,
without any unjust or unfair burdens
upon any class of property.
It decreases the rate on real aDd
personal property from 55 cents on the
hundred dollars to 40 cents on the
hundred dollars and provides fcr a
more equitable assessment so that this
character of property -will yield as
much or more revenue than the state
is now receiving from the highest rate.
The placjng of the same rate on in
tangible property to the state and re
leasing it from county and municipal
taxes is the principal revenue produc
ing feature of the measure. It will
will lead to the voluntary assessment
""" 'te kind of property in the
will increase the taxes re-et.-etffrom
this source from about
8100,000 to J$1,000,000. The penalties
are made so severe for the failure to
list this character of property that it
makes ii a financial blunder upon the
part of the owner not to list.
-The tax of ten cents on bank depos
its will also be a great teveuue pro
ducer, without any hardship, as the
banks in the most cases will elect to
pay them trusting the large addition
in deposits because they are free from
individual taxes for cash on hand to
largely increase their deposits so that
in most cases it will be a .money mak
ing proposition to them.
The News has r9asou to feel good
over the bill as framed by the Tax
Commission, as it is written along the
lines and embraces fundamentally ev
.eryprinciple for which we have con
tended in discussing this vital ques
tion We can, of course, see uo reason
why the nress of the State should not
most heartily approve the measure.
With public sentiment behind it, an
extra sessioifof the Legislature would
undoubtedly adopt it E-Town News.
Sloan's Liniment Eases Pain.
Sloan's Liniment is first thought of
mothers for bumps, bruises and sprains
that are continually happening to chil
dren It quickly penetrates and
soothes without rubbing. Cleaner and
more effective than mussy plasters or
ointments. For rheumatic aches, neu
ralgia pain and that grippy soreness
after colds, Sloan's Liniment gives
prompt relief. Have a bottle handy
for bruises, strains, spraines and all
external pain. For the thousands
whose work calls them outdoors, the

War Horse Business?
So far since the war began two years
ago the exports of horses and mules
have reached a total value of about
$200,000,000. During the twenty-three
montlis for which accurate figures are
at hand to August 1, 1916, exports of
horses amounted to 669,877 head val
ued at $142,850,219; and the number of
mules exported was 189,840 head, val
ued at 37, 271,263. Thus up to that
fcime the total value of this trade was
$180, 211,482. This means that about
one from every thirty head of farm
horses has been exported. It means
inae au average sum oi auouu qszu to

of each farmer of the United States

THE FIRST STEP
Usually the first indication of a
lowering of health is found in the
bowels and liver. Something goes
wrong we eat too much; or work
too hard and the- bowel action
weakens or the liver is sluggish.
That hdavy feeling on arising in
the morning, dryness of the"
throat, with bad taste, a slight
headache, dull eyes all show that
food has fermented in the intes
tines, and that the 'body is man
ufacturing poisons instead of
good blood.
Clear it all out. Give the
stomach and bowels a fresh start,
tncourage the liver to go to
work. Manalin does all of this,
-without griping or weakening:
It's the ideal laxative and liver
tonic, because it follows Nature's
plan, witheut discomfort, inflam
mation or forming a habit. Con
stipation may be overcome with
its use.

Interesting Subjects.
Some of the most' practical railroad
companies of the "East and West have
agreed to appeal to the courts against
the Adamson 8 hour law. They claim
that Congress went beyond its proper
"police powers" to pass this law.
The railroads are "common carriers."
and can be regulated almost any way
tha government may deem proper. If
Congress' can tell the railroads how
much they shall charge for carrying
passengers and freight, and how many
men shall, be employed to run a train,
and wharkind of cars and vhat kind
of brakes shall be used, and what kind
of heating apparatus shall warm the
cars, and how much profit tile roads
shall be allowed to earn, one would
think, that Congress could also fix the
hours of labor and rate of 'pay.
The child labor law has been anoth
er disputed subject. Regardless of
politics, Presidents up to Wilson, had
allowed our children to walk the
streets hungry and dirty, without
food and clothing. They can now be
taken care of in the orphan home.
We are glad our President means to
let our children grow up educated and
robust. "May God bless him."
Preparedness is another great sub
ject which is confronting the nation
I am a believer in preparedness. It is
an accomplished fact that Mr. Wilson
has done more-for the American army
in hardly 4 years than the Republican
party -has in 40 years. He has also
done more for our navy in 2 years than
Mr. Taftand Col. Roosevelt did in 11

It Always Helps
says Mrs. Sylvania Woods, of Clifton Mills, Ky., in
writing of her experience with Cardui, the woman's
tonic. She says further: "Before I began to use
Cardui, my back and head would hurt so bad, I
thought the pain would kill me. I was hardly able
to do any of my housework. After taking three bottles
of Cardui, I began to feel like a new woman. I soon
gained 35 pounds, and now, I do all my housework,
as well as run a big water mill.
I wish every suffering woman would give
CARDUI

a trial. I still use Cardui when I feel a little bad,
and it always does me good."

tired, worn-out feelings, etc., are sure signs of woman
