In reply to your communication adj
vising of the movement of cattle
from Mississippi counties into Nc
Marry county, Tenn, will say before
McNairy county was released the
County Board of Health representing
the County Court signed an agree
ment with the State of Tennessee and
the U. S. Government to maintain
control over the movement of cattle
so as to prevent the introduction Of
ticks from any quarantined area. At
the recent session of the County
Court two inspectors were appointed
to look after the few remaining farms
which remained in quarantine, and
two additional inspectors were ap-
pointed to watch the line and prevent
the movement from Mississippi into
McNairy county. The two latter in
spectors are H. G. Suits, Niche,
Tennessee, and Lee McAlpine, Ramer,
Tenn. Under no consideration should
cattle be permitted to be moved from
Missississippi into McNairy county.
and if information is obtained by the
inspectors that cattle are being lille
gally moved said inspectors should re-
port to the U. s. Commissioner at
Selner or the nearest point and have
these parties bound over to the Fed
eral Grand Jury.
Yours very truly,
G. B. WHITE,
State Veterinarian.

Knoxville, Tenn. Oct. 31.-"Pull
together for the Southeast was the
slogan at a meeting held here on
the occasion Of Railroad Day at the
National Conservation Exposition by
several hundred officials and repre-
sentatives of the Southern Railway
and affiliated lines, including the Mo-
bile and Ohio Railroad, Cincinnati
New Orleans and Texas Pacific Rail-
way, Alabama Great Southern Rail-
road, Georgia Southern and Florida
Railway, and Virginia and Southwest
ern Railway. President W. W. Fin
ley presided and the entire time was
devoted to discussion as to the best
methods for cooperating for the
agricultural advancement and devel-
opment of the territory sevred by the
Southern System.
In addition to the officials of the
Operating, Traffic and Legal Depart
ments, the meeting was attended by
all the field agents of the Depart
ment Of Farm Improvement Work, a
large number of representatives of
the Land and Industrial Department,
and the Live Stock Agents, Dairy and
Poultry Agents and Market Agents.
All these men are working for the up
building of the South, the Land and
Industrial Department striving to at
tract new industries and settlers and
the Others giving aid wherever posi-
BILE to farmers already in the South
east and particularly to newcomers
who often need advice as to local con-
ditions in order to be successful. In
addition strong effort will be made
to keep farmers already in the South
from moving to other sections.
President Finley was greatly pleased
with the meeting and believes that it
will result in greatly increasing the
value of the work which the Southern
and affiliated lines are doing for the
upbuilding of the South.

Receivership

W. P. Massey, as one of the credit

bill in chancery court, praying for ap-
pointment Of receiver, ETC.. to wind
up the affairs of the bank. The bill
shows liabilities of about $4,000,
with available assets about $4,000.
FL. Floyd was appointed receiver
and bond fixed at $4,000. Creditors
are enjoined from bringing Independ-
ent suits, and must prosecute their

The elections Tuesday in three
or four states carried out the
prediction estimates. Tamma-
ny was defeated by over 100000
votes. The New York legisla-
ture is republican. The fusion
lists control the purse strings OF
New York City. Sulzer was
elected to the Legislature. Mary
land and New Jersey went dem
ocratic, as did Massachusetts. In
each instance the republicans
had the usual two candidates,
Progressive and true republican.

1t is reported that Gov. Hoop
er will call another session Of the
legislature to pass the removal
bill. He has assurances that it
will pass, it is said, and the
its friends think it ought to be a
law, now when it can be passed,
rather than risk the next legis-
lature. The nuisance bill would
not be called into service if the
removal of delinquent and law
defying officers could be had.
A number of Memphis judges
would soon be in the wagon If
such a law were passed. It is
all going against King Alcohol
lately, and it is wise to give him
the fatal blow.

Nashville, Oct. n, 1918.
To the Editor,
McNairy County Independent.
Dear Sir:
The State of Tennessee produces
annually about eight million dollars
worth of eggs. From twenty-five to
forty per cent of these are total
loss. owing to the bad methods Of
handling eggs. These are always
marketed in the spring when prices
are going down and hens are laying
freely. In the summer months, that
is to say, from June lst to October
LIST, two days holding will serve to
spoil a good egg if it is fertile, as in
summer temperature the germ begins
to develop at once. If the egg is
then cooled again the germ dies and
the egg rots. But one Of the worst
troubles comes at this season Of the
year, from Oct. lst to Jan. lst. Then
the price is going up steadily and the
farmers are tempted to hold their
eggs for higher prices. Dealers know
this and accordingly discount the
market, resulting in two things:
First, the farmer who markets his
eggs promptly gets a much lower
price than he ought to get. In other
words the careful man has to help
pay for the mistakes of the ignorant
and careless man, because in any
event the dealer, as a business man,
must and will protect himself by Civ.
ing lower prices. 1t follows, second
from this that the farmer who is
careless or holds his eggs, gets q
lower price for all of them than he
would if he did not market promptly
All eggs ought to be marketed
promptly and sold on quality basis
that is to say, the farmer ought tC
demand that the dealer test the eggs
by Gambling and pay the price thai
the eggs will grade. | also have tc
suggest that the dealer being anxious
to get good eggs (the supply of good
eggs being far shorter than the de.
mand at this season in TENNESSEE will
be glad to do anything he can to hell
produce good eggs and so will usual
Iy be very willing indeed to SHOW
farmers how to do their own Gambling
which is very simple and easy t,
). learn, and for all practical purpose
the farmer can learn how to candl
his own stock in an hour or two
work, which should be supplements
By practice at home.
There is another aspect of thi
matter which farmers should bear i
mind. and that is, that it is just a
much a violation for farmers to sell
as fresh, eggs which have been bel
