' 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(. Moreover, where
young people buy a homo of their own
and have to go In dellt for It there Is
constantly present on Incentive to be
ecQuomJcnt nnd careful In one's expend

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

wouldn't be tempted to send to the big city for
