The election is over and as we
will probably have a rest from pol
itics for a time why not get to-
gether and try to advance our
town and county. People who
live together in the same COM
munity have been criticising and
backbiting each other when there
should be no excuse under the sun
for such a thing. Ii is all right
to have your choice of candidates
and every man should be patriotic
enough to vote, but there is less
to be gained in street corner poll
tics than in anything. The candi-
date over whom you are losing SO
much temper would not do you a
favor probably. Vote for princi-
pie and let the nan take care OF
himself. Then save your good
humor for your home and neigh
Dor. Let's all get interested in
an effort to build up Union City
and Obion County. reorganize the
Commercial Club, devise syste-
matte methods fer a thorough civic
improvement campaign, and next
year and the year after and SO on
let the political candidates attend
to their own business and give US
our own strength and talent to be
used at home for our own good.

Manure-Importance of the Water

Attractive.

[From Home and Farm.

[From Home and Farm.
The crops will soon all be 10 and
the farmer will have some time to
mediate on measures for improv-
ing the farm and the condition of
its inhabitants. If we expect to
thrive, we must think constantly
of our work and how to make it
more effective. Progress should
always be the farmers watchword.
The first thing to study is I'M
provement of the soil. How can
this be effected? Will you have
more manure to haul out next
spring? If possible, feed all your
hay and other provender instead
of selling it. Keep a small dairy,
or fatten cattle. Raise milk COWS.
Board horses from the city. Do
anything to increase the manure
pile. OF course, you want to
make whatever you engage in pay
as we'll as possible outside of its
manure product, though this itself
is no small item.
The next thing to consider is
farm improvements. Are there
any fences to build? Does the barn
need repairs or an addition! Are
there any outhouses to construct!
Does the dwelling house need re-
painting or amendPent of any
kind? Perhaps there are fruit
trees to set out? There may be a
cistern to dig or a we'll to bore.
Think everything over carefully,
for the interval between crops is
the time for all this kind Of work.
Of course, you want to get the
woodshed full before cold weather;
at least part of the wood should be
seasoned and dried. There should
be plenty Of kindIing and it will
not be a bad plan t9zsave most of
the wood cut up inn pve and frN
lengths. 1t will not W pleasant II

plenty Of fat on them from which
they can draw for sustenance In
the season of necessity. Care
should be had especially about
young cattle. See that they have
shelter and enough good food.
You can't expect them to thrive
with nothing but adiscarded straw

Presidents Address,

WHOLE proceeded faster than the development of
South America; but in the century that has now
opened | believe that no other part of the world
will see such extraordinary development in
wealth, in population, in all that makes for
progress. as will be seen from the northern
boundary of Mexico through all Central and
South America: and / can assure you that the
people Of this nation look with the most pro-
found satisfaction upon the great growth that
has already taken place in the countries which
you representa- growth alike in political sta
bility and in the material wcll-being which
only come when there is political stability.
Our battle feet has just finished its trip
around South America. and l wish to thank the
rulers and the peoples of South America and
of Mexico for the generous and courteous hos
pitality which has been shown this feet on every
possible occasion throughout the trip.
In conclusion let speak of another trip
made couple OF years ago by the Secretary OF
State, Eihu Root the first time in our history
the American Secretary of State, during his term
of office, left the country to visit certain other
nations. Mr. Root made the complete tour of
South America. traversed Central America. and
afterward visited Mexico. He was everywhere
received with the heartiest greeting-a greeting
which deeply touched our people, and l wish to
say once more how appreciative we are of the
reception rendered him.
His voyage was unique in character and in
value. It was undertaken only because we citi-
zens of this Republic recognize that our inter-
ests are more closely intertwined with the inter-
ests of the other peoples of this continent than
with those Of any other nations. believe that
history will say that though we have had other
great Secretaries of State, we have had none
greater than Elihu Root; and that though in his
high Office he has done much for the good of his
nation and of mankind, yet that his greatest
achievement has been the success which has
come as the result of his devoted labor to bring
closer together all the republics of the New
World, and to unite them in the effort to work
valiantly for our common betterment, for the
material and moral welfare of all who dwell in
the Western Hemisphere.

Speaker Cannon and Chairman
