I" HE International Live Stock ex.
position, which is held in Chi
cago Nov. 27-Dec. 10, is the SUI
preme court of prize winners,
the contest of champions, the apotheo-
sis of the blue ribbon and the county
or state fair raised to the nth power.
1t is all this and more. To describe it
adequately would require special
breeding and feeding of adjectives in
the same way that the stock itself is
bred and fed. No mere common, I'M
pedigreed words are equal to the task.
If language could be perfected through
countless generations Of plain and
fancy breeding. if parts of speech
could be fattened till they resembled
the glorified pig in rOtundity. then
might there be some hope of telling
about this event in tongue BETTING
the occasion.
The stock show Is a congress of
thoroughbreds, meeting of the ami
NAL aristOcracy of the world. 1t is to
the four footed creation what an inter
national convention of fat men would
be to the two legged species. 1t start

READY FOR S|X-DAY
BIKE RACE

New York, Dec. between fiji
teen and twenty teams Of champion
racing cyclists hailing from many of
the countries of the world, are ready
to start in the annual six-day race at
Madison Square Garden. beginning at
one minute after the midnight hour
tomorrow night The usual series of
short-distance worlds championship
events serves as a curtain-raiser to-
night.
While this years field for the six
day event is made up of many of the
races in past years, there will be
some new riders on the track when
the starting pistol is fired. Among
the best of the latter are the Italians,
Cuniolo and Carrapezzi. This pair is
said to possess great speed and en-
durance, and they are expected TO
make the others hustle to keep up
with them.
The favorite team rs made up of
Floyd MacFarIand, the hero of last
years grind. and Jackie Clark, who
has been Frank Kramer's bitterest
rival during the past summer season.
Other we'll known teams entered for
the six-day grind are Root and Fog
Ter, Rutt and Stol, Georget Brothers,
DeMara and Lawson, Collins and
Walthour, and German and Shirley.
Rutt and Stol will be a favorite pair
with many of the spectators. These
riders are noted for their gameness
and in the contest last year they fin
ished second.

the greatest interest by all breeders
and raisers of live stock.
Many improvements have already
been wrought in the tiocks and herds
of the United States, and values Of all
kinds of live stock have increased
greatly due in large measure to the
better quality of animals sent to mar
ket-that quality which results pri-
marily from better breeding. to en-
courage which is the chief object of the
international and other stock shows.
A striking example of the benefit
that may be done by An educator like
these International exhibitions has
Owing to the high price Of corn many
farmers stopped feeding their stock
and marketed it in inferior condition,
feeling that they could not afford to
turn corn into cattle and hogs at that
figure. A few others, however, had
sufficient faith to continue feeding and
put their cattle into prime condition.
with the result that they have recently
sold at the best prices known since the
eighties. For example. NJ. F.. Dunlap,
q widely known farmer and banker of
Jacksonville. Ill. sold ninety eight big
prime Shorthorn and Hereford steers,
weighing 1884 pounds. at an average
Of $165.61 per head. price which has
not been reached since the days Of the
civil war. Others have done almost
as well. So notable has been their tri-
umph that one Chicago paper remarks:
1t took men Of courage and confident
understanding to feed these cattle. Who
were these strong hearted feeders, then,
for the most part?
II close canvass of them could be
made it is safe to say a very large pro-
portion of them would be found to be
men who have profited materially by the
knowledge they have gained in judging
the merits of cattle and the methods of
feeding at the International Live Stock
exposition held in Chicago few weeks
before the holiday season each year dur
ing the last nine years.

This increase of prices has been CO.
incident with the stock show and at
least in part can be traced to it's influ-
ence. The day of slipshod, haphazard
farming has passed by in the United
States. The tiller Of the soil and tho
stock raiser must use the same intelli-
gence and science In his wOrk-he must
be as much Of specialist, i'm other
words, and must know as much Of his
business as men in any other calling.
Long ago it was discovered that what
is known as mixed farming. e.. not
only the raising Of crops, but the feed
ing Of stock on the same farm, is the
sort that pays.
The progressive modern business
farmer and stock raiser reads. ca,cu-
lates and compares. He tests soils,
carefully selects seeds and studies
types Of animals best adapted to prof
liable feeding and market demands.
He discusses methods with others who
have been successful in his lines OF
endeavOr, sees the results of their
work and compares them with his
own. He finds interest. profit. recrea-
ton and enjoyment in the magnificent
opportunity to do all this and more at
such exhibits as the great annual
shows of the International Live Stock
exposition.

NEGROES RESENT NEWSPAPER

The Nashville Tennessean, a daily
paper published in this city, has
caused quite commotion among its
Negro subscribers by an editorial
that appeared in a recent issue in
which Mr.. B. j. Carr, president of
the COlored Farmers Institute, was
held up to ridicule.
They are outspoken in their denun-
citation of the paper. Thousands of
Negroes read the Tennessean and they
considered the attack on Mr.. Carr as
most cowardly one and an insult to
every Negro who loves peace and prog

TILLING THE SOIL.

The first session of the Tennessee
Cclored Farmers Institute that has
Just closed at the State Capitol
is a move calculated to result in
much good to the State of Tennes-
see and to her Negro citizens in par
ticular. There is no denying the
fact that the South is backward in
farming and truck raising. Thou
sands of acres of land are laying idle
in Tennessee, and in every Southern
State, that would be yielding an
abundance of foodstuffs if properly
attended to. Carloads of potatoes
are shipped from the North and
West into the markets of the South
every year that might be produced at
home In view of these facts, who
would dare say that the Negroes o.
the South should not be encouraged
to turn their attention to Mother
Earth? Is it because life on the
farm is burdensome? 1t is true that
he WHO would succeed at anything
must find something to do all the
time, but it must be admitted that
tie farmers life is not near so
crowded with vexations as the life
of the city merchant And the same
is true of the laborer on the farm and
the laborer in the city. In the coun-
try every man has the same privilege
to breathe pure air and to drink from
fountains scooped out by natures
hand, whereas, only the rich in the
cities have the time or the means To
avail themselves Of the opportunities
offered them to visit parks and wa
tering places; then what objection
can any one offer to being farmer?
The greatest opportunity for the
the young Negro man to accomplish
something is where he has the least
resistance, and it is true beyond the
shadow of a doubt that he has the
least opposition on the farm.
The institute is grand move.
The beginning is very encouraging,
and we believe that after the news
shall have reached the rural sections
the Negro farmers will catch the in
spiraticn, and the second annual ses-
sion will see Nashville crowded with
men anxious to learn the art of till
ing the soil in way to make it
profitable.
