VIRTUALLY ON A WAR BASIS

The country is virtually on a war
basis. The passage by Congress in
extra session Of a joint resolution
recognizing that a state of war ex-
ISIS with Germany will make little
change in the outward aspect of
events. In dispatch TO the New
York Evening Post from Washing
ton by David Lawrence, he calls at
tention to the fact that those Am
bassadors and Ministers who called
on Secretary Lansing since the re-
quest by President Wilson that Con-
gress meet in extra session say that
they found him unable 70 define the

THE COMMISSION ON PROVISION
FOR THE FEEBLE MINDED

II is certainly gratifying to know
that commission is cnergeticaliy
at work in our State under the d.
rection of Or. Thomas II. Haines oil
Louisville, who is directing a
thorough survey of the state as to
the existing conditions of the I'M
fortunate feeble minded folk.
II is learned that there are 200
pauper-idiots in Kentucky. A pro-
vision Of s15 per capita per year Is
provided for them by the state. We
are informed that 81 of these I'M
fortunates are in Madison County.
II is evident that our state institu-
tons are not adequate for the proper
care Of this class Of paupers.
The commission now at work Is
backed up by the Rockefeller foun-
dation, and promises to do more sub
stantial work in solving this per-
picking problem than any movement
heretofore. This will III into the
State legislation now in vogue with
no financial backing.

LARGE PRODUCTION OF FUEL
BRIOUETS

The production of fuel briquets
in the United States i'm 1916 was
POS, 1855 net tons, valued at 81 ,4i5, 662,
an increase compared with 1915 of
1868 tons, or 80 per cent, in guam
tity, and s4O9,9i6, or 30 per cent, in
value. The production in 1916 was
the greatest recorded, exceeding
that of 1914, the previous high
record, by 4i,52O tons.
This increase in the production
of fuel briquets in 1916 is attributed
by C.. Z. Lesher, of the United States
Geological Survey, Department of
the Interior, to the improvement in
trade conditions arising from the
unusual demand for coal, and to a
greater general appreciation of the
value Of briquets for use as house.

Shiyely.
When Warren Shivcly was
twenty-seVen he was proud of the
ten years he had spent as a hired
man. He had good reason to be, for
he had enough money in building
and-loan to buy farm of his own.
That is precisely what he did.
Warren was a frugal fellow. He
also looked ahead and mapped out
this plan: To save fifteen dollars
every month; TO deposit in the build
ing -and-loan that fifteen dollars
every month. After an interval of
thirty days each deposit began to
draw a dividend of six per cent.
Each year the deposits amounted
TO $3.50, and for ten years, $500.
The dividends that had accumulated
were slightly more than $500. With
this total amount he bought a forty
acre farm, made the first payment on
it, bought horses and implements.
and got married. He thus acquired
a farm, home and family.
