Editor Herald
The Maury County Farmers and
Stock Growers Association have a
meeting appointed for Monday, July
9Th in the Church House at l p. m
at which a speaker from the State Ag-
ricultural Department is expected to
give talk on some farm subject.
Col. Thompson, State Commissioner
of Agriculture has been asked to send
one of his men and we hope to have
Col ]. H. Mcdowell, the Live Stock
Commissioner and talk from him on
| the Government Cattle Quarantine
and the Texas cattle fever tick. But
few farmers in the county have in.
formed themselves of the great value
of the cattle and sheep growing indus
try to Maury county and they are not
aware of the very great dagger to that
valuable industy from the spread of |
the cattle tick and the consequent |
quarantine of the general government |
for its suppression. A great many
cattle on our Southern border are
now infested with the deadly tick and
heroic efforts should be made to free
our county from the danger.
There is TO be big meeting of
Wayne county citizens at their county
town on Monday, July 5th for the spe
cial purpose of planning a war on the
tick in Wayne county. They are be-
low the quarantine line and it would
take many thousands of dollars to
make good to the farmers of that
county the damage caused by that
embargo on their cattle shipping.
We of Maury county should get into /
he fight in earnest before we are |
subject to the same hurtful conditions
md We believe that the farmers OF u
he county have only to be we'll in
ormed of the danger 30 this impor. l.
ant industry so that they will unite
With their usual energy and determi- d
lation to fight this enemy. 1t can be L
but requires earnest and L
persistent effort. u
There is another subject now before

DEEDS OF JESUS 0UTD0NE.

Galesburg, nl-Taking for his
theme the words of Jesus that those
who believe in him can do greater
works than he, President Fisher in
his baccalaureate sermon TO the
seniors of Lombard college the other
day contended that it is possible for
Christians to do greater work than
did Jesus through the exercise of a
right belief.
DR.. Fisher compared to what Christ
did the achievements OF modern
physicians and surgeons who have
made the art OF healing universal and
performed remarkable cures. To the
changing of water into wine he COM
pared the irrigation schemes of the
west, by which water is transformed
into products of the fields and or
chards. Walking on water the
speaker declared too slow, and
he compared this to the mod
ern wireless telegraph, by which
speedy ships go To the relief of the
vessel in distress.

made and went only with what he
