liv I Ain a Prohibitionist. > :> -rms by One of Kentucky’s Prominent. Preachers. One reason why I am a pro Liitionist, empliaticall and linequivocally opposed to the Manufacture, importation and t. '.lr of intoxicating liquors in m;s and all forms is, because •very dollar spent for the same uio a atone in the sir >ng wall of some prison house, to con iine an immortal and deathless soul for crime, committed be cause of strong drink. All must know that drunkenness could not bo, could not exist, but for the traffic in strong drink, iam sure that I speak ihe truth, when I say much more than half of the crime committed in this land of the free and home of the brave, emanates directly from tin manufacture and sale of ardent spirit-*. Beyond equivocation, hesitation or doubt, the whis ky traffic is the one evil, the crying evil, the damning evil of the present period; and where ever it exists, it is more ruin ous and destructive than cy- clone, fire, earthquake and flood. Thus understood, the manufacture, importation and sale of intoxicating liquors is not only inhuman and wicked, but all who are engaged in the same are criminal in tlig sight of God aud man, murderers i ■ many instances, snd ought to be so regarded by all good cit izens, and punished for the crimes of which they are guilty. Hie man who makes, buys, and sells that which leads to ihe violation of all law, human and divine, must be a monster, a criminal, and he must merit severe punishment, lie who makes, buys, sells that which destroys the peace of home, ■which produces insanity, en i'eebles the physical frame, shortens life, engenders pau perism, makes the son disobe dient, leads the daughter into Ihe paths of shame, makes a brute of the husband and the jather, transforms the other ■wise gentle mother into a fiend, a living, barbarous devil, and finally sinks its poor, miserable victim into an eudless, death less hell; the man thus engag cd must be not only a mean man, but a brute, a criminal of deep dye, and he must be con scious of the same —and assur edly he ought to be punished ns a criminal for the crime he has committed. These expres sions may be said to be bit er cruel, intemperate and rough, and yet but feebly express the truth, th" whole truth, and nothing hut the truth, as con nected with the infamous sys tern ol marking drunkards, pau persand murderers. Tins then is one reason why I m a prc hibitiorist. i lie only way to get rid ot poisonous tree is to cut it down and dig it up by the roots. The only way to get rid of a disease-engendering swamp is to drain it, until the 6\vamp no longer exist, and the sources and causes of malaria are forever removed. The same is true of the whisky traffic. The only way to get rid of this ruin, death and hell, is to de stroy it; tear it up by its roots, and banish it from the face of ihe 'earth. And this should be t he ceaseless effort of all Ohris tim men and women. Another reason why I am a prohibitionist, and opposed to the manufacture, importation and sale of ii.toxcating liquors, in any and all forms, is became j i very dollar paid is a siVi , but expiessivc footbosrd at tin. grave of some unknown but loved one in a l’oilei's field. Even Ihe inhuman brutes who make, buy and sell tho hellish poison, must know, and will id mil that drunkenness leads to nil that is debasing and ruin ous. Whenever crime is to le committed, some dark deed is to be perpetrated, a deed that is inhuman, brutal, liendisl , the perpetrator must lill op on whisky, and generally on moan whisky at that; and then he is the willing and obedient servant of his master, the dev il, and fully prepared for any thing that is dark and devilish. Fired, maddened, rendered tern porarily insane by the ruinous stimulant called whisky, the victim of the whisky habit mov es out in the commission oi crime with an ease and a readi ness that is a surprise not. onl\ to his friends but himself. Main a man would be something ot a gentleman, if the drink traf lie were destroyed. Ihe com plete destruction of the d.ii.k traffic, its banishment from our earth, is tiie only way to save hundreds and thousand of our fellow-citizens who are already under its. diabolical inllueme. But for the manufacture, im portation and sale of the accuis ed stuff, there would he, there could be no drunkenness, and the human family could not be cursed with the evil. And this is the only way te solve the drink problem. Itmustbede stroyed—hung by the neck un til it is dead, a thousand times dead. Prohibition bswever, is the only remedy, and if we are only true to ourselves, ot.r cause, and to the God of Heav en. in the comparatively near fu lire, we will suceeei in the suppression of the manufacture, importation and sale of all in toxicating liquors. Heavtn speed the day.-[Southern (Ky ) Journal. Hives containing bees can now be painted on pleasant days with no inconvenience to the inmates. Mrs. Harrison says in the Prairie Farmer: The first story of our hives is painted white, and lead and oil are jjow in the honey house to give tlnm another coat. The second story, or ca >, js painted with Venetian red and the cov er white. The white paint is cooler than the red, as it does not draw the sun so much and it is put where it is needed. Warmth is needed in the sec ond story during the time of storing honey, to enable the bees to ripen the honey and manipulate the wax. Orchard grass grows best in the shade, but it is not a good lawn grass, for the reason that it grows in bunches and does not cover the ground well when sown alone.
