' " s ' RENT OR BUYf -The above query (s one' Ihat often confronta young people at they start housekeeping on their own account, and they are often perplexed to know which la the wiser and more econom ical course tq pursue. Wb,Uo clrcuru stances to be found In, some portions of largof cities may make the plan -of owning a home of one's own inadvisa ble. It seems to be the consensus of opinion that under average conditions those who buy nre'at the end of a term of years financially ahead of what they wquld baVe been had they rented a property of ari equal value. Added to tho fact that In a period of twelve years one would pay out In rent ron- sMerably more than the place rented could be. bought for at the beginning of the period la the satlsfactlo-i of having a home of one's own, a consid eration that it Is no easy to mensure In dollars and cch(.

' Thus tho putting of money Into a home results in much the name conditions that prevail when oue Is carrying life Insurance or putting money pi(o other forms of Investment. Payments musf be made at stated In tervals, nud vconomy Is accordingly practiced that these may be mot Where one rents a portion of the sala ry Is devoted to this purpose, but the process goes on year nncr year with nothing to show for the money one has paid during the Interval but a bunch of receipts for rent which, have no ue gotlb)e value. A TROUBLESOME MICROBE. While tobacco growers the country over nre peotered with Insect euomles that work mote or ess damage to their crops, the worst parasite which some or the growera In portions of Kentucky have to put up with la a two legged microiK? that wears a mask, carries revolver and makes a practice of set ting the grower's tobacco storehouse nfiro and perhaps killing the owuer. So destructive have the attacks of these Night Klders been during the past year that many of the Independent tobacco glowers of the state referred to have had to vacate their Dlantatlons and move to other states. The motive for these vicious attacks on the independ ents seems to tie traceable to their un willingness to have the ptlce at which they shall sell their product dictated by the- Tobacco Growers' association. through which as a result of a mutual agreement the members have been able to raise the price of tobacco trout 9 to 18 conta a pound The Independ ents, not liking dictation as to the management of their business and many of thorn having Insufficient means to enable them, to hold their product for n considerable period of tl.ne. have sold or offered to sell at lower prices than those set by the as sociation, with tho results as stated aliovo.
