Horse Montqomery County fair Association and Retires as PresidentSuccessor to Be Named in January. Tipton's Carriage Factory Badly Damaged As Was Also Barn Occupied by WM Bush. The directors of the Montgomery Fair Association have purchased the stock of James R. Magowan in the association for the purpose of redistribution. Mr. Magowan will retire from the presidency and deyote all his time to other interests. The association will hold a meeting in January and elect a new president and directors. Mr. Magowan has been president of the association since its organization several years ago and made a splendid official, much of the success of the fair company being due to his personal efforts, and his retirement is deeply regretted. Just who will be named as the new president is a question of doubt, but the stockholders are sure to elect a man of efficiency and abil.ty and the future success of the fair is assured.

Winn, was elevated to the bench of the Court of Appeals, which, in our judgment, is one of the highest compliments that can be paid a law.yer, the Louisville 'Evening Post unqualifiedly endorsed his selection, in the following Kentucky Tobacco Warehouse Gets High Prices for New Crop of Tobacco For Friday's sales, December 15. 191 1, the prices at the Central Kentucky Tobacco Warehouse ranged from 3c to 22c per pound, the latter being the highest price this season on the Lexington market.

WIXX'S APPOINTMENT. The appointment of Mr. Robert II. Winn, of Mt. Sterling, to the vacancy upon the Kentucky Court of Appeals caused by the resignation of Judge E. C. O'Rear, will prove agroeable to the bar of the entire State and is another illustration of the excellent judgment shown by the retiring Governor in the matter of judicial appointments. Mr. Winn is, according to the testimony of the leading lawvers of the State, finely equipped for the duties of our highest court. Still in the prime of life, he has ample experience at the bar, while he is not without training in public affairs so valuable to a man entering ' upon such a position. Some months ago Judge A. P. Humphrey, of Louisville, stated to the Evening Post that he considered Mr. Winn one of the best equipped lawyers in Kentucky for service upon the Federal bench should a vacancy take place in this State, and he is understood to Iiave so informed the President. Instead of going to the Federal 'bench Mr. Winn is called to the highest court of his own State, a position fully as important and probably more onerous. He takes up Ihis duties secure in the confidence of his associates and respected by itha entire State. The Evening Pot congratulates Mr. Winn, Gov WiiIson and the State upon this appointment. 1 is This for an Obituary? Probably one of the most remarkable obituary notices ever printed was published in the Sullivan County Review at Middle-towN. Y. recently from its Montela, Ulster county, correspondent. It is as follows: "A few days ago ho was stricken with poisoning from a wounc1 in the neck while lighting with his wife when he was drunk.

There are thousands and thousands of acres, the same paper says, which never have been cultivated and the movement should bo encouraged "by building good roads to those sections of the State which are shut off from transportation facilities." There are millions of acres of idle land all over the South. Senator Fletcher, of Florida, made the statement in Chicago recently that out of 621,000,000 acres of land in the. Southern States only 25 per cent, is under cultivation. There is enough idle land in Kentucky to accommodate a vast population, and it is not poor land. The most of it is not only susceptible of cultivation, but is splendidly productive. In the crowded cities and States of the East there are people who are hungering for such land and the enterprising real eastate agents are sending them to the West to pay big prices for irrigated sand back-to-the-s- or for the doubtful soil- of windswept prairies or black mountain With sides, as the case may be. proper presentation of the the advantages of the. Southern States there is no doubt that many of there homeseekers could be induced to locate in the South where agricultural prospects are intinitely more favorable. .' Good roads are great developing agencies and the South is beginning to recognize their value. Road improvement is a live issue in almost every Southern State. Kentucky is hardly keeping up with the procession in this respect, but there is progress here as elsewhere, and there is hoDe of greater progress in the future. The idle lands of Kentucky and the South need to be transformed into homesteads and productive farms and the building of good roads will assist largely toward such - HERE IS A REMEDY THAT WILL CURE SKIN AND SCALP AEfECTIONS AND WE CAN PROVE IT.
