THE ASSESSMENT LAW.
a COmmendaBIe Result From the
New Law

New Law.
From the Springfield Record, July TO-
There has been q great hue and cry
against the last Legislative body-a0d es-
peCially loud has been the declaration that
it did nothing. We will merely lay before
the readers of the Record the aggregate
assessment of single district of our coun-
ty, and they viii tind that the new law has
aug up the handsome sum OF $l28, PAT in
excess of the year Of 1872. This sum is, in
itself, enough to build bridges over every
stream in the county, school all the children,
and then have surplus left. This ne W
law, in this one district, Cthe 3D., brought
up several hundred acres Of land that had
been quietly laying in the shade, enjoying
its fairness and yet contributing nothing to-
ward its poorer neighbors. Right does no
one any harm, and We will ever believe that
the new assessment law is the best that
State; and that the body enacting it deserves
the gratitude of the entire people:
Ifthis law is rightfully and carefully en-
forced, we will see that Tennessee will soon
be entirely out OF debt-taking the district
we herewith submit, as an example:

TAKE CARE OF THE CALVES

Much of the future growth, and, in fact,
much of the profits Of the farmer arising
from his stock, depends upon the care which
it receives during the first year. l do not
wish to be understood by this thst if a
farmer takes coed care of bis stock The first
year he can afterward let them run hap
hazard. Every good farmer will see that
his stock is at all times well cared for. But
the first year is The foundation; it is the
starting point of their future growth.
Therefore many farmers who are in the
habit of giving their calves nothing but
three weeks old until they are
esned. They are then left TO
run and pick their living as best
