GROWING ALFALFA IN
TAZEWELL

There would seem TO be no reason
Whatsoever why Tazewell cannot and
should not grow alfalfa The soil
of this county will grow almost any
crop which other non-tropical soils
will grow-certainly anything in the
grass family. The most profitable by
far, OF all the legumes is alfalfa, and
if soil is properly prepared it will
grow here and do we'll. Where il has
been tried and failed the preparation
OF the soil has been responsible for
the failure. Once we'll started and
rooted its only enemy is weeds.
Weeds, if allowed TO do so. will take
ii and smother il out when young.
Why not try an acre or so this wear?
Write TO secretary of Agriculture ut
Richmond or TO the Experiment
Station ut Blacksburg for the bulle-
tins on alfalfa, which give explicit
directions how to prepare the soil
and grow this valuable grass. The
following clipping from the Southern
Agriculturist is of interest:
Conservatively expressed, alfalfa
will yield four times as much hay
as alsike clover and more than five
times as much protein to the acre
three times rs much hay as man.
moth clover and more than five times
as much protein; at least five times
as much rs red top and about twelve
times as much protein; and three
times as much as has timothy and
about ID times as much protein per
acre. The comparisons here given
representing the relative yields and
feeding values of the cloVeTs and
grasses mentioned, ale not meant TO
be typical for all cases, but TO be
illustrative of the great value of al
falfa. And it is believed that the
crop is even more valuable than
these comparisons would indicate,
for alfalfa has greater soil improv-
ing capacity than any of the other
crops mentioned, and the statements
made are conservative rather than
otherwise.

Is A LIE EVER JUSTIFIABLE?

The Sunday school lesson of last
Sunday had 10 do with the question
OF lying. Ananias and his wife
Sapphire, seem TO have entered into a
compact to deliberately lie. The false
statement was detected, and the
dreadful and swift punishment Of
death which over took both of them
gives an idea of how the matter was
regarded by the Apostles and the
Divine WILLIS lie ever justiafibIe!
is question often asked-variously
answered. Many good people claim
10 believe that circumstances frequ-
emily arise under which lie is not
only necessary but entirely justif-
able. That this is dangerous and
exceeding harmful opinion to hold
will not be denied by sober, christian
thought, is beyond question, and
IL taught to children, would produce
a nation OF disciples OF Ananias,
who would not only be entirely un-
trustworthy, but would finally
reach the point where they would
deliberately try TO deceive the al
mighty. There's none too much faith
and confidence imposed in each other
by the people of the world now, and
any sanctioning OF such a monstrous
teaching would result in incalculabIe
harm. Certainly no right thinking
man or woman can justify a lie even
though they may some times tell it
themselves. The devil was pronounc-
ed the Father of lies, and this alone
is sufficient argument.

BRISTOL AND THE HERALD
COURIER

We want TO say unsolicited and of
our own free will and accord, with
not even small Ratchet TO grind,
that theBristol Herald Courier is one
of the very best papers i'm the state
Is editorial page is never dull, and
always true TO the best interests Of
the Twin Cities. 1t is the only city
paper in the state, we believe, which
has taken decided stand in tenn
perance campaign, and manfully and
truly, the paper has hewn TO the
line. We wish our readers-all of
them, were readers Of the Herald
Courier.
And while we are at Tits pity
that Bristol is so inaccessible to this
section. 1t is said that years ago
Bristol was "our town" When a
citizen of Tazewell said he was
going to town he generally meant
Bristol. Not so now. The chief traffic
from this section to Bristol now is
in clipping couples, and the best
known citizen of Bristol, in this sec
ton is Parson Burroughs-unfortu
nately.

INADVERTENTLY OMITTED

In giving in last issue a list of
leading protestant denominations in
the United States the Lutheran
church was unintentiOnally omitted.
Our attention being called to the
omission we gladly give the figures
taken from the Lutheran Almanac
and Year Book for 1909, without en-
the different bodies, the
statistic for the "Whole Church" in
the United States, is as follows ::
Ministers, S, $50; congregations, Is, =
DIS; confirmed members, 2,lOO, S63.
These figures place this denomina-
ton of christians along up near the
top of the column. The first organi-
cation of the denomination was
made in Pennsylvania, in 174S. The
first synod in the South was organic
ed in North Carolina, i'm 1903.
The denomination has "a Orphan
Homes in the United States, 26 Theo-
logical SeminaIies and IL colleges,
besides various other benevolent in
stitutions.

workingmen and whiskey

Workingmen as a rule drink too
much whlsksy. This is the blunt
statement of lamentable fact. We
make full allowance for industrial
conditions which impel men to drink
to excess, but after all is said the
fact still remains that intoxicating
liquor is a strong factor i'm keeping
the working class in the chains of
wage-slavery.
We are not discussing this issue as
conventional temperance advocate
nor from motives of maudlin senti-
mentalism. In looking over the field
and taking an inventory of the OBJ
STAGES workingmen have TO overcome
before they can achieve their freedom
we find that whiskey pays a consid-
erabe part, and by whiskey we mean
all those alcoholic drinks which be-
fuddle the brain, dissipate what lit
tie substance remains TO the worker,
undermine his health, and all too
often drag him down to disgrace and
premature grave.
What workingmen need to do,
among other things necessary to
their emancipation, is to drink less
whiskey and read more good Iitera-
ture. Whiskey not only has a ten
dency to muddle their brains and
weaken their minds, but to make
them satisfied with their wretched
lot. When a nottingham has taken
a drink or two of the poison that
paints land scapes in the brain, for a
brief moment all the skies are bright
and the labor question is settled.
Only too often workingmen meet
in saloons, som etimes vile dens,
where they discuss the labor question
and transac: their union affairs. 1t i,
hrardly necessary to observe that
business so transacted does not pan
out to The interest of the wage slaves.
