and the last of this type of literature went out of existence as
such soon after the turn of the
century.
They were very popular tales of
adventure, combat,
love, history,
and similar subjects, according to
Miss King.
While popular, they
also were regarded with suspicion
of being sensational, if not Immoral,
and often earned their
youthful readers trips to the woodshed.
Nevertheless,
the dime novel
survived to bring us vivid pictures
of the life of the times. Miss King
said. "They reflect a great deal
of the history of our early days
and afford an excellent means of
studying
the colloquial language
and customs of the period."
The University collection, valued
at several hundred dollars monetarily and much more historically,
was acquired from a southern book
company in 1944 and includes 33
dime novels in seven different
series published from 1861 to 1909.

Much land in Kentucky is too
rolling for cultivation, but by keeping it in good pasture it can be made
to increase farm ihcomei the report

added: "Naturally, therefore, much
effort is spent by the extension division to educate farmers as to the
importance of good pastures and
how to produce them."
One method in increasing returns
from old pastures is seeding small
grains in fall or spring. This has
been advocated by the Extension
Service for several years and as a
result the practice has greatly increased 90.000 acres being sown
last year.
The Extension Service has for
years stressed the value of alfalfa
hay. The report says results have
been gratifying, about 70,000 acres
being sown In one year.
i
Strip sowings of grasses and legumes to demonstrate their rela
tive value have been made on about
50 farms, and similar tests are
planned in every county. Crops
used include bromegrass, Ky. 31
fescue, orchard grass, timothy, Kentucky and Canadian bluegrass. seri- cea lespedeza, black medic, alfalfa,
sweet clover, ladino clover, Kentucky
white clover and several strains of
red clover.
The Extension Service conducted
tests in 85 counties to acquaint
fanners with the value of ammonium nitrate on small grains, grasses
and other crops.
