INCREASE IN wheat
CROP IN KENTUCKY

No day is long enough for the farm
ers at this busy season of the year
with everything coming 81 cace,
says the State Department of agricul-
lures monthly crop report for June.
Labor shortage is acute. Wet wealth
er during May delayed seasonable
planting so that some planting is yet
being done, corn and tobacco need
cultivating, hay harvest is on hand,
wheat harvest is nearing completion
with only about II per cent of crop
uncut on July LIST. Some wheat is
reported as sprouting in shock. But
little threshing of wheat has been
done however early estimates on
yield would indicate an average of
149 bushels per acre which is an in
crease over last years early estimat-
es, This would give prospective
production of over fifteen million
bushels this year in Kentucky.
Progress of growth of corn is good.
1t is needing cultivation however.

OFFICIAL HUNTED
COAL CONTRACTS.

In his report on the investiga-
ton of the Institute for care OF
feeble-m minded children at Frank
fort at the request of Gov. Black,
State Inspector and Examiner
Henry F. Turner exonerates
lSupt. G. w. Armes and the State
Board of Control, who were
critized by the Franklin county
grand jury at the last term of
court, and said that if the grand
Jury had heard the testimony of
employees not prejudiced against
DIR. Armes he believes the finding
would have been different. The
grand jury referred to agreat
quantity of coal purchased for
the institution which could not
be burned. With regard to the
coal, Mr.. Turner said it was con-
tracted for by the old Board of
Control, of which J. Forrest
Butts, of Carrollton and John A.
Burton, of Lebanon, of the pres
ent board, were members.
THE contract was made with
the Big Hollow Coal Company
through the efforts and influence
of Tom Hatcher, of Pikeville,
then a member of the Prison
Commission and now member
of the Board of Control" he
said.
Later on the Board of Control
through the efforts and influence
of Nat B. Sewell, the State In
spector and Examiner, bought
some coal from the East Ken
lucky Coal Company. Some
little friction arose between Mr..
Sewell and Mr.. Hatcher in re-
gard to furnishing coal to this
institution. This matter was
brought to the attention, of Gov.
Stanley in February, 1918, thru
the chairman of the Board of
Control, and it was promptly
agreed that neither party hold
ing State office should be in
terested in selling coal to State
institution and all contracts there
fore existing were cancelled.
Some of this coal, he said,
was bad. During, the winter of
l9l8-i9, he said, owing to the
shortage Of coal, fence posts and
other wood was burned to keep
the inmates warm. The present
contract as to the Hatfield Coal
Company of West Virginia, and
Mr.. Hatcher made affidavit that
he is not interested in it.

HOG RAISING IN THE SOUTH
Many Southern Farmers Growing More Animals and of Larger Type
 Noticeable in Georgia.

Prepared by the United States Depart
 ment of Agriculture-)
 An important result of hog-cholera control work which has resulted in a steady decline of the disease, has been the stimulus given the develop ment of swine raising in the South. With other activities of the depart ment in this line, the assurance given to Southern farmers that hogs can be produced without fear of losses from cholera has encouraged growing not only larger numbers of animals but also better types. This has been mo- ticeabIe particularly in Georgia. A few years ago that state purchased about 4OOO0,O00 pounds of pork more than it produced annually. But ef- forts for the control of hog cholera have gradually extended over the en- tire state, with resulting confidence in hog raising. By 1918 Georgia was producing pork enough to make ship ments to outside points besides sup plying a large number of hogs to local slaughtering establishments. Similar progress has been made in Mississip- pi, Alabama and Florida.
