Gov. urges Kentuckians to take advantage of COVID-19 testing By Crystal Staley/Sebastian Kitchen Frankfort, KY - On Sunday, Gov. Andy Beshear urged Kentuckians to be ready to fill all available slots as the state undertakes more testing for the novel coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) than ever before.

May 5, 1978 Around Adair with Ed Waggener The article below was first published on May 5, 1978. It didn't actually run as an Around Adair then, but we're designating it one for the digital age, for the very scientific reason that a photocopied version was preserved in a box of Around Adair articles, and it seems to fit. Plus, the Depression-era recipes may prove handy in 2020. In addition to the great write-up on Mr. Giles, there's a recounting of a meal in Spout Springs with cousin Henry and Janice. --Pen By Ed Waggener Poke picking proves profitable for Johnny Giles Johnny Giles loves to pick poke. From early May to the end of the month, Giles hits the poke patches and picks it by the bushel. In the four week period, he will pick about $600 worth of the stuff, some 150 bushels at $4 per bushel on the Cincinnati produce market. He sells the stuff in three trips to the Queen City. They know Johnny Giles up there and they know he picks good poke. You can sell anything Johnny Giles lives in the Knifley area. He's semi-retired from the fruit peddling business, but he has never got produce selling out of his blood.
