Reports from all section of Crtiveu
and atljoitiing counties show tlie toliaeco
crop to be in belter condition tliaa In
many years. Tie reduction in acres e
Is not near so great as was thought.
Ten or fifteen per cent Is nearer the
correct figure. The number of pounds
per acre Is fully up to the big crop of
last year.
The Injury from ; worms Is almost
nothing, farmers declaring it to be un
precedented. Usually the greatest dam
age to the growing crop Is from worms.
They peiforate the leaf thereby render
ing It unfit for wrappers. This year
there will be no such mutilation, while
the crop Is too near maturity for dam
age from other causes. ; r '-.'?-,"

; Prospects were never brighter for a
good crop, both In quantity and quality.
Bright or lemon colored wrappers will

which brings the highest prices and are

In favor of good prices la the fact thai

Fruit Vessel From Martinique. .
The schooner Klla R, H1U, Capl John
Day, master, after having transported a
cargo of shingles to Martinique-, a
French possession In the West Indies,
arrived In port last Sunday with a fine
assortment of fruit from Dominique,
consisting of bananas, cocoanuls, pine
apples and limes.
The veaael -made the trip In 83 days.
the time for the home voyage was 13
days; . ' , '
Capt. Day had no trouble In dispos
ing of his trult selling It out yester
day. ..':,.,...-'.
It Is quite a treat for the small boy,
who was constantly at the vessel's
hatchway until the last vestige of the
slock was sold.
One Incident of the trip Is the fact
that the cargo Is not sufficient weight t J
furnish enough ballast for a sea voyage
and the schooner bad to have II) tons of
huge rocks, put In ballast, Capl. Day
had them pot aboard by the natives for
the small sum of sixty cents.

We visited the i:.,':i,l & EJIard flour
mills at Louisville and weie very kiudiy
entertained for an hour or more looking
over the uiodcrir iuiprovements of this
up-to-da!o mill. I huve seen a larger
building than this of Ballard's for a mill
but never saw so much going on at a
time, nor so many dilTerent mills In
operation run by one tremendous engine.
It takes about 20 minutes to unload a
car of wheat which at first Is run down
on the first floor and then taken to the
cleaners where it Is thoroughly cleaned
and then run up to the feeding places
for the grinding process. And from th
time the wheatjs unloaded till It comes
from the bolters In the various grades of
ft mr .It Is' handled only by machin
ery and a visitor would hardly suspect
that, he was in a flour mill, were it not
for that peculiar aroma that J.s, best
known to millers and wheat raisers.
The contrast between this mill with
all its modern machinery and Improve
ments and those we old veloraus used
io visit at Winchester and othui1 wheat
centers, In the sixtios is very marked
They cannot make any better bread now
than they made then,; but ran make, It
easier and . faster. Ballard his a steel
t ink that holds 100,000 bushels of wheat
and numerous smaller ones Ills mills
storage rooms and railway fncilltie,
occupy seventy acres of . land In ann
trnunil the city.-;. One of his large eton
rooms was empty at tho r -union ant
wa-t used as storage forVele'ant In
stead of wheat. 600 comfortable co a
were arranged on the second floor and
thls was barracks for that many soldiers.
We learned too that this wu done at
Ballard's Individual expense. We bav
so ne Idea of a single room that will con
tain 600 cots, with ample passage room
between the rows of cols for the Old
Vets s . - - v f

- The Louisville people are justly proud
of their cemetery, said to be one of thf
fluent In the united States. It is on the
East side of the city and occupies l'O
acres of land with a reserve of 100 acrts
more well laid out with nice drives and
walk ways.
Nature has done much tor this place
now sacred to the memory of thousands
of the dead citizens and soldiers of both
armies., - , i "
I It was Decoration day, (Hay SO), with
the Northern people when wo vIMted
the grounds,, and thousands of little
flags were flying Stuck one ovef each
tombstone of the northern soldier.-
The ground is just rolling enough to
make it pioturesque. A beautiful lake
extends half a mllelnv length fed by a
spring from Cane Hill which gives the
ground the name of Cane Hill Come,
tery. ( , . .
:' Ducks, geese and a few swan were
moving gracefully on this ' beautiful
1 ike. Home distance below the cane is
alt artificial dam-across the lake with a
fall of several feet,! here the water was
gently and almost silently pouring ove
I is little falls. - , . " ' '.
Kentucky's famous blue grass grows
luxuriously on these grounds and many
men were at work with knives and
hooks rooting out the weeds and other
growth, thus giving the blue grass full
sway to grow and beautify the sod. We
were told that $3,000 a month were ex
pended for keeping and beautifying
theie grounds, . .. Y-. , ".; '. ',
One name In the long rows of Confed
erate tombstones attracted our attention,
It was, "Elizabeth .Temins" of Calhoun
Ga., with these words under her name
'Bury me with my people." We made
Inquiry of our guide, and were told that
she wu a Spy and In an effort to capture
her sbc was killed, and she requested to
be buried with her people, meaulng her
ttoulbern comrades.
The beautiful flowers finely trimmed
evergreens and great variety of trees
that adorned the graves and roadways
demand more than passing notice.
We were almost spell bound on the e
sacred enchanted grounds. It was an
honr not to be forgotten, and we sug
gest that if any readers of the Jouiinal
vurlt Louisville, they would be well paid
for a visit to "Cane Hill Cemetery."
