ARE LEAVES WORTH GATHERING.

At this season of the year a read
or who has long been familiar with
agricultural papers expects to find
exhortations to gather the autumn
leaves, either to be used for bedding
or to be added directly to the man
ure pile. 1t has been assumed that
leaves are rich in the elements of
fertility, and that where they we're
abundant the neglect to gather them
should be regarded as a violation of
the requirments of good farming.
Some writer's have even claimed
that it would pay to go to forests
quite distance from home in order
to obtain supply of leaves.
1t is probable that the value oil
leaves as fertilizing material has
been greatly over-estimated. They
are very useful in the forest. But
this is not merely on account of the
actual food material which, they sup
ply, but very largely because in COW
ering the ground they prevent the

In our announcement columns
this week there is another candi-
date for Clerk of the Circuit Court,
George w. Duggan, one of the wor
thy young men of our county. He
is one among the foremost school
teachers of our county. His father
died when he was quite a small
boy, and left alone without means
he worked at whatever he could
get t do until he would get little
money ahead and then he would
attend school, ard so he kept on
until he acquired enough learning
to teach, then he began teaching
and going to school alternately
thus possessing himself Of an edu'
cation by self-sacrifice and hard
work. Such young men are to be
honored; there is the right kind o.
stuff in them. Mr. Dnggan has the
ability, and we are sure If elected
he will fill the position with credit
to himself and his party.

IN this issue will be found the an
nouncement of Mr.. +. NJ. Webb,
our present Register, for re-nomina-
ton. At the age of 10, when but a
boy, Mr.. Webb enlisted in the 2ud
Tennessee Cavalry as a substitute
for his father, whose health would
not permit him serving as a soldier.
In this capacity he served till March
1865, when, on account of bad
health, he was discharged and re-
turned home, bringing an honorable
discharge to his father, which en-
abled him to obtain a pension, but
debarred the substitute. He has
always been a strong republican,
working and voting for the punch
pies of the party. With pains-tak-
ing faithfulness he has served the
people of Blount County for about
four years, and as it has been the
custom Of the county to give the
office second time to the party
proving himself worthy; and as his

experience enables him to serve the
people better,in the future than in
the past, he respectfully asks the
support of his old comrades and fell
low republicans. II Mr.. Webb is
the choice Of the people We have no
hesitancy in saying that the county
will have an efficient Register,
whose acquaintance with the Office
will enable him to discharge the du-
ties Thereof with credit to himself and
the people.

have his reports ready and every
thing straight when the time comes
to make his report. He is thorough
ly acquainted with the duties of the
office and no time is lost with him
in making mistakes and having to
correct them. Another thing to
consider is the fact that it isn't so
easy to give so large bond as this
Office requires, and it is advisable
for the county to look well as to the
man placed in this responsible posi-
ton. 1t is needless for US to say
that Mr.. Rule would serve the peo'
pie as well as ever if elected, ant
we doubt if they could be served

SIMEON GRIFFITTs for Trustee
is one of the announcements APP
pearing in this issue. Mr.. Griffitts
is well known farmer eff Blount
county, and one of our very best
citizens. He is man Of good bust
ness ability and strict integrity.
All who we have heard speak of
him have had nothing but good to
say. He is an old soldier and a
thorough republican. We are sure
if Mr.. Griffitts is elected to the Off
ce he will discharge the duties
there, in an honorable and upright
way. The republican party may
well be proud of such candidates as
Mr.. Griffitts. If all who sought
office at the hands of the people in
this country were as upright we
would not hear of so much trick
cry.

escape Of moisture, keep the soil
cool and porous in the summer and
serve as a blanket to prevent the es-
cape of heat from the ground in the
winter. 1t is probable that the ben
e6ts from the sources last named are
much greater than those which are
derived from the food material which
the leaves return to the trees from
which they came. However that
may be, it is certain that the leaves
which fall in a forest should be left
there to protect the roots Of all trees
and to promote the growth of those
which have not reached maturity.
When leaves fall from trees by
the roadside or upon the lawn the
case is altogether different. Such
leaves blow around the roads and
yards, and are not infrequently
gathered in piles, where they are
not only unsightly, but will tend to
retard the grass the coming spring.
If they were absolutely worthless it
would, under such circumstances,
pay to gather the leaves in order to
keep the ground in neat condition
and to prevent the injury which will
be caused if they are allowed to re-
main wherever they are carried by
the wind. But they are not alto
gether without value. II they are
dry when they are used they make
good bedding for horses, cows or
pigs. They will not only tend to
keep the animals clean and comfort
able, but will also absorb IL good
deal of the liquid manure. IF other
materials for bedding are preferred
it will pay to gather the leaves when
they are wet and add them directly
to the manure piles or the compost
heap.
The reason that leaves are less
valuable for fertilizing purposes than
has sometimes been supposed is
found in the fact that before they
fall they part with large proper
ton of their nitrogen, potash and
phosphoric acid. The valuable
elements are largely taken by the
trees to promote their growth and
vigor. Then, too, if allowed to re.
main long upon the ground, the
leaves are deprived by teaching OF
some of the fertilizing which they
contained when they fell. Still,
when all necessary deductions are
made, leaves contain small proper
ti9ns of each of the three elements
when have been named and also
have other useful, though less valu-
able, fertilizing substances. They
are not nearly as valuable for ma
nure as staw, but when falling near
the farm buildings they are worth
enough for this purpose to pay we'll
for gathering, while the improve
ment which will be made in the APP
pearance of the yards and roadsidcs
is still more forcible reason in IA
vor of their removal therefrom. -
