MUCH INTEREST SHOWN

IN SHEEP RAISING.
Morristown, Tenn, June 29.-Ship-
ments of sheep and lambs from Nor
ristown during June and July will
probably exceed an approximate total
value of $4,000.
d. H. Litz has shi )ped during the
past ten days to dealers in Jersey City
two corloads OF $50 lambs each, bring.
ing a total of $2,4O0. The average
weight per head was IS pounds.
A car will be shipped every other
week until August l, total of 1900
head in all, 1890 of which are lambs
and 500 are old sheep. The average
price per head is SIS.
The farmers in Hamblen and ad-
joining counties are becoming more
and more interested in the raising OF
sheep and a large increase has been
made this year.
The industry is doubly profitable
giving revenue from the sale of wool
and from the sale of lambs, and the
expense of raising sheep is said to be
very low compared to the expense Of
raising other live stock.

The dam to be constructed by the
Tennessee Eastern Electric company,
which will be situated eight miles
south of Greeneville, and in to be COM
pleted within two years, will make
quite a change in the Nolachucky riv-
er. The dam is to be sixty feet in
height, and the estimated cost is $780,
600. 1t will dam the river for dis
lance of about three miles, creating a
great lake which will make it great
resort, and on which pleasure boats of
all kinds will ply for the pleasure of
visitors. In places the river will be
nearly half mile wide, covering what
are now large and fertile fields. AT
the place where the dam is to be con-
structed there are high cliffs on both
sides and it is believed that the bottom
of the river is solid rock.-Greeneville

ALARMING SPREAD


Nashville, Tenn, June 29.-The
alarming spread of pellagra in Tennes-
see is commented on by DR.. r. @. Lii
lard, secretary of the state board Of
health, in an interview given out
Thursday. DR.. Lillard laments the
fact that the state has provided no
means for fighting the dread maladv,
and suggests to physicians that they
isolate all patients coming under their
care.
DR.. Iillard said:
"The reports coming to the state
board of health from the various coun-
ties throughout the state Indicate tb at
this desease is alarmingly on the in
crease.
"With the present meager informa-
ton of the medical profession concern
ing the aetiology of the disease and
the lack of any legal authority upon
the part of the state board of health 10
quarantine against it, the board can
only act in advisory capacity and sug-
gest to the various physicians and
county health officers throughout the
state to isolate and segregrate theil
cases rs much as possible.
IA measure that should be brought
to the immediate attention of the next
legislature is the establishment of {

Tennessee lambs brought as high as

lambs from other sections brought.
The pens were cleared when the mar
ket closed and the tone of the market
is active. Hogs ranged considerably
higher than other western markets the
past week, condition that has pre-
vailed for month. The shortage in
local hogs and cattle supply accounts
in part for the high prices. Cattle
