LANCASTER
Loses Federal Highway


The Federal Bureau Of Highways
has disapproved the Madison Hardy
vile project because IL parallels the
project from Lexington through
Nieholasville. Harrodsburg and
Springfield 10 Bardstown. This pro-
ject would have passed through Lam
caster. Danville. Lebanon, Camp
bellsville and Greensburg and the
money has already been provided for
the building Of this highway. Bonds
to the amount Of 10000 having
been voted last March for this pur.
pose. These bonds cannot be used
for any other purpose, 20 knowing
ones say.
Pretty Raw Deal.
Its a pretty raw deal, says the
Danville Advocate. and as TO whose
fault Il is the facts are not known at
this time.
The Federal government made the
proposition that the road would be
built II the counties would raise half
che money. Boyle county held an
election and voted a bond issue.
The money can be used for no other
purpose than in the construction of
the proposed Federal Highway.
Forty thousand dollars Of the money
has already been paid into the county
treasury by the tax payers and was
loaned the past week to the banks
Of Danville by the Fiscal Court. II
is supposed that now the Federal
Highway has fallen through the
money will have to be returned TO
the tax payers. This means a big
cost,or in other words a big waste.
Other counties either voted bond is
sues or raised the necessary funds
by private subscription.
Heavy Survey Costs.
A great crowd Of surveys spent
months surveying the route and all
this expense has now been thrown TO
the winds. A crew Of about thirty
five surveyors were here and they
were equipped with automobiles and
trucks and spent money literally in
making the survey. Three men
ought to have been enough to have
made the survey yet about thirty-five
were employed.
The tax payers should make a pro-
test and a vigorous protest ut such
poor business system and in the
waste Of so much Of the public funds.
II is said that the counties might
join the state in building the high
ways but that might also fall
through. so II would seem that the
best thing to do would be for the
counties to build their own roads and
cut out both the state and federal
A fight should be
made to have law adopted by the
next legislature prorating to each
county the amount Of automobile
taxes paid by each county.

Machine Invented
To Pitch Base Ball

An ingenious machine for pitching
baseballs, which will throw any of
the curves that man can throw and
never wild ball, is operated by com ;
pressed air. A compressor, sunk in
the pitchers box, supplies the air to
a~tank on the machine. 1t can be APP
piled to the ball at any pressure, ac.
cording to the speed desired. Sixty
pounds has been found to give the
speed of a ball pitched by the average
man.
BY means of lever, the gun is
broken" in the middle, for loading.
Other leavers move the gun literally
and vertically for aiming. A trigger
placed on the top releases the ball
This is accompanied by a sharp re-
port. 1t is the inventors praticc to
signal just before pressing the trig-
ger, in order to give the batter the
warning ordinarily given by the pitch
ers "wind-up" which precedes the
throw.
The machine has a revolving tur-
ret, on one side of which is a hole
for the passage of air To accomp-
lish curve, air is applied to one side
of the ball, causing the whirling mo-
ton which results in curve. BY
revolving the turret, air may be APP
piled to any side of the ball and any
kind of curve in a star pitchers re-
pertoire may be easily obtained.

THE NORFOLK IDEA

TT is reported that the example set by

control of the plant in which they were
employed by buying an outstanding
mortgage upon it is to be tried in other
sections of the country. That means
that labor is going to employ its capital
to defeat the capital at the disposal OF
the employers. It will have very
salutary effect on the whole labor move
ment if that course is followed in suf-
ficient number of industries to give it
thorough test. With the passing OF
shop control into the hands of the en-
ployees we may expect to see, high
wages, short hours, decreased produc-
ton, and consequent high prices, As q
