COUNTRY ON EVE OF
GREAT BUILDING BOOM

The information and Education
Service of the Department of Labor
estimates that the building deficiency
in the North Central States as re-
suit of the war is $1,511, 100000.
For the North Atlantic States, the
survey shows the deficiency to be
81, 200, 100000.
In all of the States covered by the
survey, building interests and real
estate boards report a shortage of
residential property, including apart
ment houses. There is a marked
shortage of school buildings and
most of the cities report a need of
additional business structures.

Once upon a time Kentucky was
described as the estate Of whisky
race horses and tobacco That was
before much was known Of her vas,
coal beds, less Of her oil and gas
pools, and when little attention was
given her partially developed agn-
cultural possibilities.
While one Of her once dominant
industries now has been paralyEed
by the domination of prohibition.
her breeding farms are more prOfta-
bic than ever: she continues to grow
around 4OO,OOO,OOO pounds Of to-
baeeo annually and her agricultural
interests have diversified and ex-
banded wonderfully, so that this year
her wheat area for harvest is more
than 100000 acres, with an official
~ estimated yield above $4,000, 900
bushels, almost twice the annual av-
erage of the preceding decade.
As if TO anticipate the loss from
the closing of her many and great
distilleries come the exploitation Of
her mineral resources and an off,
setting aecretion to her wealth. Al
ready the coal developments have
placed her among the leading btu
minous States of the nation, and in
the past twenty years they have at
tracted millions of capital from home
and outside sources.
The development of her oil and 1
gas fields has been more recent. Al
though oil was discovered in the /
State as long ago as 1919, If was
lot until 1905 that the production
reached 100000 barrels, only to

decline until 1916. when Il again
passed the million marx, and the
estimate for 1919, just made BY
State Geolcrist W. R. Jillson. is for
more than 100000 barrels, the
market value Of which should exceed
si5. .ooo. As to the natural gas
production Of the State, while its
commercial value received later rec
cognition, the sales have increased
frem $500 in 1859 to close to ST.
OOo. 900.
II is not many years ago that the
older oil and gas producing sections
of the country were the source Of a
propaganda intended to ridicule the
Blnegrass State. Predictions were
freely made that the Kentucky wells
would prove Of snort life and tina.
there would be lost.
Now kentGcky is established as one
Of the reliable oil producers of the
country, with old wells well main
tanned and new production steadily
increasing. Last week one pipe line
alone carried from the wells to the
market approximately $4,000 gal
IONS of the crude product.
So the state of Whisky, race
horses and tobacco is fast becom-
ne one Of the great wealth-produc-
nc States Of the Union.

Department officials think this de-
ficiency must be made up, as well as
that the current needs for 1919 must
be met, and are encouraging a build
ing boom that is expected within
few months to result in unprecedent-
ed building activity, which will do
much to stimulate activity in many
industrial lines.

WHY COLUMBUS WAS
MADE CENTENARY CITY
Has Largest Percentage Of
hethodiSts In the World.

What brought the Methodist Cen.
tenary Celebration to Columbus.
June 20 TO July 10. is the question in
the minds of great many Methodists
and non-Methodists throughout the
United States and elsewhere.
When H. B. Dickson was chosen
organizing director of the celebration
by the joint commission of the Meth
odist Church South and the Methodist
Church North, he Immediately set
about TO find the most suitable place
for ths greatest event of its kind
ever held-a city which could take
care of the 100000 persons who would
come to this gathering, and one which
was so located that it could be most
easily reached by the people most
concerned.
Mr.. Dickson made a tour CT a mum.
Der of the principal cities Of the
United States, including Washington,
Baltimore, Cincinnati, ST. Louis, Kan

came back by way of Detroit, where
he received instructions to go over
the same territory again, stopping at
cities that had not been visited be.

ped at Indianapolis. Indianapolis I
tried to interest him by showing him
the Indiana state fair grounds. This
gave Mr.. Dickson an idea, but he was /
not satisfied. Previously he had not
considered the possibility of utilizing
buildings such as constitute the equip
ment of a state fair grounds.
Next he came to Columbus, where
he found the state exposition grounds.
and he was captivated at once. There
is nothing like these accommodations
anywhere in the United States" he
said But this was not enough TO
persuade the combined board of digni.
taries OF the two churches most in
terested. Then 1t was up to him TO
get an argument that would convince
the bishops. district superintendent
and others in authority in the
churches.
Mr.. Dickson began to draw circles
around the cities OF any size in the
United States, to find out where the
Methodists were to be found In this
way he discovered that there were
more Methodist churches with 1000
members and over in the city of Co
lumbus than In any other city in the
world. He also found that there were
100000 Methodists living within two
hours ride of the city OF Columbus.
and more than 100000 within a
ride Of the city; 5000. 900
within an oyer-night's ride

These facts laid before the Joint <
