Kentucky MOI "Staanant"

Louisville Courier journal: The Du-
luth Herald, which recently made
some comparisons between the fl
nances or Minnesota and Kentucky, has
evoked from The Minneapolis Tribune
the statement that such comparisons
are unjust because Kentucky is a
"stagnant" state while Minnesota is
progressive.
Kentucky is not a "stagnant" state,
though 1t is not making as much
progression as much noise-as some
other states. In some respects it is
rather more "stagnant" than it ought
to be, but 1t is increasing in wealth
and in population and is making head
way with all its material interests.
Primarily Kentucky is an agricul-
tural state. Progress is being made
along agricultural line. not with such
CELEBRITY as might be desired, but Ken
beginning to learn d great deal about
scientific agriculture. Kentucky IL
maintaining its rank as one Of the
great ~corn-growing states and is rails
ing one-third Of all the tobacco pro-
duced in the United States, and one
eighth of the worlds crop. In agri-
culture and in all it's allied lines the
situation is decidedly not "stagnant.'
Kentucky is rich in minerals. Ten
SaA oSo IL SSoSo CLlS aS Oh SOdb~ PLo~
ducing state, while 1t now stands fifth,
and is almost certain to stand third
within the next five years. 1t is one
of the few states which produce
fiuorspar. It is increasing the mineral
output year by year and probably no
state has a greater variety Of miner
ais. From a mineral standpoint there
Is no stagnation.
Among the states Kentucky is the
third largest producer Of internal
revenue. The manufacturing industries
are not as numerous as some Of the
other states, but they are showing
splendid growth in output and in cap
ita1 invested.
Kentucky has been handicapped by
illiteracy and bad roads and by an
archaic tax system, but these evils
gradually are being overcome. Prob
ably it is more nearly ~"stagnant" on
the road question than anything else
but it still ranks high in good roads
mileage.
"Stagnant' means standing still
otherwise "reactionary, fossilized
worm-eaten and dead" to quote the
words. Of one of the perfervid orators
at the United Mine Workers conven-
ton In Indianapolis. The Courier
Journal respectfully submits that the
term doesn't fit.

A BOYS HOMEMADE STRENGTH
TESTER.
BY A. E HALL.

This unique piece of apparatus will
give you and your friends an oppor-
tunity to determine which one de-
veloped the most arm muscle during
the summer vacation.
Figure / shows the homemade ma
chine in operation; Fig. 2 is a large
detail Of the completed machine, and
Fig. 8 shows details of the parts Of
which it is made.
The beam A should be about 2
inches thick, 4 inches wide and 4 feet
long. A thinner piece than this can
be used, but one disadvantage in using
the thinner piece is that it Is likely
to break when struck a heavy blow
upon its end with the striking maui"
The posts B may be of the same width
and thickness as beam A, or thinner
and wider, and should be about IA
inches long. Any pieces Of board
about 6 inches wide and 8 feet long
will do for the base crosspieces G.
Fasten the base crosspieces to the
lower ends of upright posts B, at right
angles to them. using at least four
nails to make secure connections.
Then with a 3h-inch or 4-inch nail.

The smile was stricken from John
Valiant's face. A duel-the Srel-be-

sudden movement in the thicket be-

as of some one running away.
He made a lunge for the dog, but
with a growl Chum tore himself from
the restraining grasp and dashed into
the bushes. "a child, no doubt" he
thought as no plunged in pursuit, "and

He pulled up with an exclamation.

ence of the treasure is corroborated by
fact. Anna Romano is in possession
of a document written in the sixteenth
century in which 1t is related that a
wealthy oma Of S~assari, fearing a
French invasion, hid all the money,
jewels and plate she owned in a Sc
Guided place.
This woman was subsequently muir
dered and her body was buried in the
courtyard of her house. A faithful
servant knew that her mistress wore
around her neck a locket containing
the document, with the description Of
the place where the treasure had been
hidden.
When Anna Romano was arrested
she had just discovered the corpse Of
the murdered woman and the locket
with the secret document. The police
found the locket but not the document.
