couragement to those engaged I'M the
production of high grade farm seeds.
Chance To Lead The Word.
In the production OF such seeds as
bluegrass seed, hemp seed, sweet Glow
err seed and the seed OF white hurley
tobacco, there lis opportunity for Ken
lucky to lead the world. Even under
present conditions, the production OF
bluegrass seed is a rapidly growing
branch OF our agriculture. During poor
seasons no less than three hundred
thousand bushels Of this seed are pro-
duced annually in Central Kentucky
and during a good season this crop at
present amounts to something over a
million bushels.the retail price OF which
is now $40 per bushel.
The new law will afford increased
opportunity for the study Of the pro-
duction and handling OF this important
crop so as to secure the greatest de-
gree OF termination and viability, all
OF which will contribute TO the good
reputation of n valuable Kentucky pro-
duct and viii tend to put the produc-
ton OF bluegrass seed upon high
plane OF honesty and excellence.
Station Can Render Big Service,
Even under the old seed law, num-
Der OF reputable seedsmen have come
gradually to repose the utmost conf
dence in the findings Of the Expert
ment Station and have come TO rely
largely for the satisfactory conduct OF
their business upon tests carried out
in Professor Garman's laboratory. II
is needless TO say that under the new
law. based as IL is upon the combined
experience Of large number Of our
most reputable seed analysis, the OPP
portunity for effective service to farm
ers and to seedsmen will be greatly in
creased.

Two heavy beams fastened at an angle
a truss for many years in the old Wilson
block on Water street has served as the
subject for many questions as to what it
was. since being shown at the Anderson
G. Latin barber shop. When Chas Will
son rebuilt the block after it's destruction
by fire in 1850 he stated that he would
do away with supporting pillars for the
gallery and had made the trusses which
supported the roof and from which iron
rods were strung, which in turn support
ed the gallery. After being in use for
some few years 1t was noticed that the
bolts in the trusses were bending and the
roof of the building had sagged to such
an extent that It was necessary to add
more gravel and tar each year to prevent
its leaking. AS this added more weight 10
the overstrained trusses. and coupled
with the large crowds which at each en-
tertainment given in the hall filled the
balconies. it was finally considered that
the building was unsafe for public gath
erings as then constructed. After Mr..
Wilson's death the building was sold to
Thomas Mclaughlin and the upper part
of the block rebuilt on a modern plan.
When the work of reconstruction was I'M
derway the ends of the beams when
formed one Of the trusses were sawed
off intact and have been in the posses
sion Of c. L. Spaulding since that time.
An inspection Of the truss and its con-
struction at once shows the immense
strain which has been put upon it while
IN use. and also shows that the timbers
used we're far too light and not prop
er,y Joined together. and the fact that no
accident in the building while these
trusses were in use seems remarkable.
