More Cp.ra House Talk

Shall we have an opera House? -?
Mr.. II. G. Peery calls attention
again to the need of q good
opera house for Tazewell, a need
which is acknowledged, and has
been talked of frequently. At
intervals attempts have been
made to get up a stock company
to build a house, but lust as
often failed ended in talk.
Mr.. Peery generally goes through
with any scheme he sets his
head to, and if he gets in earn
est about the opera house it will
be built even if he has to build
it himself. A good neat building
for the movies and other good
shows would pay a dividend on
a reasonable investment, and
some day some wise man will
pitch right in and build such a
house. There is a good deal of
sporting blood" in Tazewell,
and even the "cold-blooded"
like the recreation and relaxation
furnished by an occasional show.
Let the opera house be built.

MONEY WASTED IN
BAD FERTILIZERS
MJOrity Of Farmers Pay Little Al
teniion 10 Improving Soil Should
Demand Analysis.

1t is pitiablc to think of The
! amount ci' money that will be
wasted this wear in fertilizers
for The corn crop and wheat
this fall, IS wei! IS en- potatoes
etc. a f:rmor vss aeked the
other day what { rtilzer he IS d
last year and expec led TO use
this year. His reply was that he
used a good deal last year and
would Use moro this year, but lie
didn't know what kind it was
o. would be, He buys any brand
offered said to be good, especially
If it hes a strong odor. No fer
tllizer should be bought except
upon Il guaranteed analysis Of
its contents, and not then unless
the farmer knows about what
kind of fertilizer his land needs.
He can know these things by a
little observation and study.
Some soils and some crops need
only one ingredient, others need
two, others still need all. But if
only one is needed why waste
time and money in using more?
If all are needed why waste time
and money in using less?
Right here the Demonstration
comes in. In a number of coun-
ties an expert has been employed
to help out with suggestions and
advice men who have given
time and study to the subject,
and know their business, as the
large increase in the acreage
production shows. In the alb
sence of a Demonstration help
may be obtained from agri-
cultural bulletins, papers, etc,
which can be had for the asking.
II the farmers would practice
a rigid crop rotation, turn under
leguminous green crops, stable
manure and lime there would be
little or much less need of COM
mercial fertilizers. So say the
men who are succeeding. An
Orange county man, last year,
made 110 bushels Of corn to the
acre without commercial fer
tilizers.
Another way in which money
used in fertilizers is in the
quantity used. In an acre of land
there are 43, $50 square feet of
land. In zoo lbs of fertilizer
there are $4,000 ounces. 1t can
be readily seen that to spread
81, GOO ounces over 43, $50 square
feet how remarkably thin the
fertilizer will be-not enough
scarcely to fill a hollow tooth. If
used at all fertilizers should be
used literally. It's a waste of
grain to feed a pig only one ear
of corn when it should have and
needs four or five, and the same
with a stalk Of corn or wheat.

WeHave BOUGHT This Space in Order to Have
aPlain Talk With You, Mr.. Plain Business Man

MIR. Merchant:-W you 20 to market to
buy your goods, do you buy from a firm Just
beginning business and without experience
or from the old, established and reliable firm?
Mr.. Lawyer:-When you have an impor-
tant matter Which you can not attend to
yourself, do you send it to beginner, or to
an experienced and competent attorney?
MIR. Doctor:-When you have a complicated
and serious case, do you call in consultation
a man fresh from school, or the most skilled
practitioner you can get?
MIR. Farmer:-f you were going to commits
sion man to buy cattle for you, would YOU
select city man who knew nothing about
cattle or an experienced stock man?
The answer to all these questions, and to
many more we could ask, are obvious Your
safety and success are dependent upon the
experience and ability of those with whom
you deal.
This is true in every line of business, and
when you pay your good money for fire in
surance policy, it is not wise to say ooh one
is as good as another, | am not going to have
fire anyway" and then give it to a man
with no knowledge of his business, or ex-
perlence in it, simply because he is out of a
JOB, or friend or kinsman. How much of a
friend would you consider him after the fire
when, because of his lack of knowledge. Won
find that the policy was incorrectly written
and you can not collect your money. How
many people in your neighborhood have had
this experience?
