(By Capt T. +. Peck, Commissioners
of AgricnltIlre.)
While touring the state last year
with the agricultural demonstration
train, at one of our stops, we were
met by a large and enthusiastic,
crowd but prominent among them
was pompaus oyerdressed man who
after glancing over the train said
."Oh, recon its all right for the farm
,ers but am business man; it'sa0f
no interest to me" His tone, ges-
ture and bearing indicative OF his
contempt for the farmer and every
thing intended for his betterment I
recall this case because | think he is
rare one and It is to be hoped that
with his demise his kind will be exs
tinct
That man was not enlightened
enough to know that his business was
made possible and grew out of the
needs OF the farmer that as those
needs Increased and the capacity Of
the farmer to provide for them, was
it possible for him to prosper in bus
mess.
Mr.. Business man, you are looking
out for ways to increase your volume
of business Here Is an element OF
trade capable of increasing four
times its present volume. Can't you
afford to lend your aid and encour-
agement to an industry with such
possibilities for development?
You are not expected to quit your
business and 60 to farming, but yon
can help the farmer in development
of better markets. You can encour-
age legislation that will be helpful
to the farmer in securing and raising
better stock. You can encourage bet
ter rural schools, better churches and
better roads. You san assist in the
dissemination of information of a
practical nature that the farmer can
understand and apply to his work
You can do much to stimulate the
farmer to take more pride in his vo
cation. You can discourage the opin
ion that is fast dying out that the
farmer is a hayseed, green country
pumpkin. You can help him in many
ways and while you are doing so and
winning his appreciation you will be
building up your own business at the
same time.
What applies to the business man
will apply equally as we'll to the
professional man, the manufactures
and the railroads. That the manage
ment of the railroads regards the de
velopment of the farming industry is
evidenced by their willingness to as
sist in any movement having that OBJ
ject in view.

X o. much Importance to the road
opekseers Of the county and to the
'putaic generally is the decision of the
supreme court of Tennessee at Jack
son last year in the case of Graves
VS. Yazoo & Mississippi Valley Rail-
road, in which 1t was expressly held
that:
n Railroads are not required to
sound whistle or bell at public road
crossings not designated by statuto-
'ry sign"
In the case referred to suit was
brought for damages because of per-
sonal injuries against the railroad.
1T was alleged and proven that at
the crossing where the injuries were
inflicted the railroad did not sound
the bell or whistle, but the railroad
fnterposed the defense that the cross
ing had not been marked by the road
overseer as required by the statute.
!, The court held that this was =
good defense, that although one Of
the crossings was marked with a
sign railroad crossing" that it was
mot a statutory designation within
the meaning of the law Nor did it
appear that the road crossing had
been marked or designated by the
road overseer, which. under the rul-
ing Of the court, is a vital factor.
In other words sign placed at the
crossing by the railroad or by some
private individuals and properly
marked would not be proper desig.
nation Of the crossing within the stat
utory meaning and such a designa-
tion as would compel the railroads to
sound the bell or whistle when trains
, were approaching.
The statute requires that these
crossing must be marked by the road
overseers with this sign: Look out
for the cars when you hear the bell
or whistle" II that sign lis not prop
erly placed by road overseers the
court expressly holds that it Is alb
solved from the duty of sounding
warning when approaching grade
crossings.

Mrs. Bergdoll on several occasions

the offensive. Nor were they dis
appointed. A hole two feet deep was
dug alongside the sidewalk Of Mrs.
