Work of Board

AS usual there was much discussion
about the contract made with the new
sheriff. The former officer received
$500 per week for boarding one class
of prisoners and $3.50 per week for
Migrants. When the proposition came
to Sheriff Welk he would not agree to
such arrangements and a uniform
rate of $500 was decided upon. There
was much discussion about the legality
of the old contract, but the board
could do nothing else. The sheriff
recommended that high fence be
built around the stone pile and this
was left with a committee to decide.
A number of resolutions concerning
the permanent highways were passed.
Highway Commissioner Post recon-
mended that those employed on the
county highways he insured against
accidents. It was left with the COM
missioner and county clerk to GO as
they thought best.
The salary of the county superin-
tendent was fixed at 81 800 per year,
an increase of $500.
The surplus fund in the county
treasurer's office will go into the
general fund.
IJwas decided not to pay $500 to
VIM. Terry for the team drowned in
the Baraboo river last summer. The
board decided the county was not to
blame.
The claim of DR.. Schlag for broken
automobile was laid over.
Mrs. Nellie Dyke asked to have
taxes paid on land purchased by the
state, refunded. Referred and no
action at this session.

BECK KEEPING.

The Chronicle has received Il
copy of bulletin on "Beek eeping
IN Tennessee" prepared by G. 81,
Bentley, State Entomologist.
This is the latest bulletin issued
by the State Board Of Entomology.
1t consists of Ga pages with many
illustrations and is devoted espe-
cially to the beekeeping interests
in Tennessee. Much of the data
in this bulletin has been obtained
through careful study of the bee
keeping industry in Tennessee by
the author covering a period of
eight years. The subjects dis
cussed are those of greatest i'm
portanceto the practicelbeek keeper.
Valuable suggestions are also CIV
en- to the prospective keeper of
bees.
"It is a fact that beekeeping in
Tennessee can be conducted prof
itably when managed carefully by
putting into practice what has
been found out by experts i'll the
management and use of modern
appliances. Bookkeeping should
be encouraged, as it may we'll form
@ vocation for the young as we'll as
for the old, for those living in the
city as we'll as those living in the
country for the hale and hearty as
well as those suffering from inn
paired health. Emphasis, however,
should be placed upon beginning
in small way and developing as
ones interest and love for bees has
been enlarged.
"The varied fora, the abundant
rainfall, the number of growing
) days and the mild winters are all
important factors pointing toward
success to him who will keep strong
bees of the right kind in a modern
way"
At the present time Tennessee
ranks fifth of the honey producing
States in the union. There are
l44,4S7 colonies of bees in the
State and the business annually
aggregates million and half dol
lars. AS a pollenizer of fruit and
farm crops the value of the honey
bee, even, far surpasses this figure.
Copies of "Beekeeing in Tennes-
see'' may be had upon request, by
addressing the State Board Of
Entomology, Knoxville, Tenn.

Advertising and Salesmanship

A good salesman should. know
the goods he has to sell, know the
objections to them, and know how
they compare with competitive
goods as to.quality-and price. He
must know the most effective ways
to present the goods to the custom
er, and know how to finally make
the sale. Bot if customer went
into a grocery store and said to a
clerk, "Give me a dollars worth of
sugar" the customer taking the su-
gar and the clerk taking the dollar,
the clerk here manifested none of
the qualities of real salemanship.
The real salesman is the one
who attracts the attention of the
customer to goods for sale, creates
in the mind of the customer an in
terest in the goods, then creates in
the customer desire to own the
goods, and finally creates in the
customer a determination 10 have
the goods-and a sale results.
That's craftsmanship. Good sales
men are trained salesman filled
with enthusiasm. Every salesman

STOCKMEN WARNED.

State Livestock Inspector DR..
G gorge R. White has issued cir
G ular to farmers and stockmen
warning them against feeding
sorghum to live stock under cer-
tain conditions which he sets forth
in the following article:
The plant botanically known as
sorghum vulgare-or as referred
to throughout this section of the
c ountry as sorghum when eat
en- by cattle during certain stages
of it's development is deadly pois-
on on account of the prussic acid
which it contains. Prussic acid is
recognized the world over as one
of the most dangerous and deadly
poison.
Sorghum retarded or stunted in
growth contains largerper cent
of prussic acid than does that
which grows rapidly and develops
into healthy vigorous plant.
The leaves are more heavily load
ed with prussic acid than the stalk.
AS much as / per cent prussic acid
has been extracted from green sor-
ghum leaves. This would mean
that / pound of these leaves would
contain fatal dose for an ordinary
COW or steer. In mature sorghum
the stalks and seeds do not contain
prussic acid.
There is an erroneous impression
abroad to the effect that it is only
She second crop of sorghum which
