DIARY OF FATHER TIME
An old lady upon seeing the first
locomotive in 1901 cried out, Good
gracious! What will be done next.
l can't compare it to anything but
walking, putting devil.
Although steam transportation
was first put to practical use in the
year 1908 the genesis of the steam
engine belongs to ancient history, for
in the year $50 B. c., HerOd made
and exhibited at Alexandria the first
steam engine. Nearly eighteen cen
turtles passed from the time of
Herod's engine before any active re-
vival of interest was manifest in this
field of invention. Although the per-
feet engine of today is a product Of
the 18th century, yet a valuable leg
acy was left to it by James Watt,
who, in 1882, invented the doube-act-
ing steam engine.
1t may be a rash prophecy to pre-
dict that electricity will supersede
steam, yet the very latest develop
ment in railroading is the self-con-
tanned car, which produces its own
power by means of an electric motor
which secures its energy from
gasoline engine driven generator.

Tennessee Live Stock In

tee.

Speaking before the House
Committee on Agriculture and
the Senate Committee on Agri-
culture on the subject Of tick
eradication in the South last
week, DR.. George r. White.
Tennessee Live Stock Inspector,
said:
am here as representative
of tick eradication in all the
Southern States in general and
tick eradication in Tennessee il
particular.
You will observe by reference
to the last annual report of the
Chief of the Federal Bureau of
Animal Industry that there are
10, ,000,00 head less beef cattle
now than there was six years
ago. This shortage of cattle
plays an important part in the
high cost of living at this time.
Unless something radical is
promptly done to stimulate cat
tie raising in the United States
there will be no limit to the cat
tie shortage five or ten years
from now.
In my opinion the whole popu.
lation of this country must look
to the Southern States for in
creased cattle production. I'm.
less aud until the Southern cat
tie tick is eradicated profitable
cattle raising in the Southern
States IS out of the question; II
is utterly impossible. With the
tick eradicated there is no good
reason why the Southern States
could not raise lO,00O,o0O, 2O,.
