BIG COMPANY FAILS

The biggest mercantile fail
ure in the history of the United
States was precipitated last week
when receivers were appointed
for H. B. Chaflin Company, of
New York City. The company,
it is estimated, owes more than
S3o,ooo,ooo, which at the pres
ent time it is unable to pay. Its
assets are said to be $44,ooo,ooo.
John Chafin, head of the COM
pany, and its chief individual
stockholder, is the owner of near
ly thirty other enterprises which
are involved in the failure. Re-
ceivers of several of these have
been named and similar action
was announced would be taken
in the case of the rest. The bust
ness will be continued under re-
ceivers' management until their
financial affairs have been ad-
justed.

EASIER TO SHIP
LIVE STOCK

New regulations governing
the interstate movement Of live
stock will become effective July
/, 1914. These changes are desig-
mated by the Department Of Ag-
riculture to facilitate the move
ment Of I've stock from quaran-
tined areas or from public stock
yards. The new regulations,
which are known as B. A. /.
Bureau Of Animal Industry
Order zIo. superseding B. A. /.
Order I43. deal with the ship
ment Of cattle from tick-infect-
ed areas, with the movement of
swine from public stockyards
and with the dipping of cattle
and sheep for scabies.
Hereafter cattle that have
been dipped once under State or
Federal supervision may be ship
ped from an area quarantined
for ticks 10 a market center
where there are proper dipping
facilities and the Department Of
Agriculture maintains an in
spector. After a second dipping
there under his supervision the
cattle may be sold for any pur-
pose. Hitherto It has been nee
essary in times Of drought for
cattle owners in quarantine ed
areas TO slaughter their stock or
sell il for slaughter for whatever
It would bring. The resulting
loss will. it is hoped, be done
away with under the new regu-
lation.
The provision permitting. un-
der certain strict conditions, the
transportation Of hogs from pub

WILSON PROMISES BIG
REVIVAL OF BUSINESS

Under a new constitution of
freedom" for business given by
antitrust legislation soon to be
passed by Congress. President
Wilson has promised the coun-
try the greatest business boom in
its history. This was the Presi-
dents answer to the opponents
of truct legislation at this session
Of Congress and to prophets of
evil times, delivered with deter
mined expression and every
word emphasized with clench-
ed fist.

do it under the advice, for we
have been fortunate enough to
obtain the advice of men who

which renders swine immune tc

yards have been considered as
infected with this disease. Now
however. It s considered safe tc
permit the shipment of hogs
which have been trated with the
serum and which show no symp-
tom Of suffering from any form
Of disease. AS a result Of this il
is expected that thousands of
light weight hogs will be sent
from the stock yards to the
country for feeding and fatten-
ing and that the oountry's total
production Of pork vii DC greatly
increased therby.
The new regulations also with
draw all permission for the use
Of nicotine solutions, ooal-tar
.creosote. and cresol preparations
in the official dipping of cattle
and sheep for scabies. This step
has been. made necessary by the
difficulty experienced in keep
ing baths of this nature at a
strength sufficient to eliminate
all danger of disease without
having them so strong as to be
injurious to the animals them
selves. The Department, there
fore. decided to insist upon a
field test Of the strength of all So
lutions for dipping. A practical
field test for this purpose is avail
able in the case of the sulphid
sulphur used in lime in sulphur
baths for scabies, and for arsen-
ious oxide in arsenical dips for
cattle tick. Official dipping,
therefore. will hereafter be con-
fined to the lime-and-sulphur
and arsenical baths.

1T PAYS TO KEEP ACCOUNTS
Many Farmers Lose Money Because of
Neglect to Make Record of Money
Spent During the Year.

Ask the average farmer what paid
him best last year. Was it corn. oats,
hay, hogs, horses, or cattle? The
chances are 100 to he cannot tell you
exactly. Did he make money last year
or did he lose money?
Most men hate to keep farm ac-
counts They viii not take two or
three minutes every day to write down
in book as to how time and money
have been spent on the farm
City business men hire bookkeepers
to keep accounts They do this be
cause they want to know at least once
every year as TO whether or not they
are getting ahead or falling behind
They want to know what parts of the
business are making money for them.
and what parts are losing money
Knowing these things, they plan on
what to do in the future.
Thousands of farmers keep no ac-
counts, and yet get along very we'll.
Some of them have such good brains
that they can keep things fairly
straight in their heads But al of
them lose money once in a while that
could have been saved if they had only
kept accounts.

should be thoroughly dried in the
sun. The temperature at which they
seem to keep best is between so and
65 degrees F.
In some localities the common
method OF storage is to place the
sweet potatoes in a cone-shaped pile
containing from 1000 to 2,00q
pounds. The pile is then covered
with layer Of dry, fine hay or
straw, followed by a layer of corn
stalks, and on top of all this two or
three inches of sand or dirt is placed
Others make piles like an oblong
pyramid three feet high and four by
ten feet at the base. This is covered
over by a frame properly built for
the purpose two or three inches of
earth being placed over the frame.
Siratifying the sweet potatoes in
sand has also given satisfactory re-

GOOD SEED INCREASES YIELD
Safe and Sensible Way Is to Clean
Seed Thoroughly by Running
Through Tanning Mill.
CBy Z. ]. MILLERD

Many farmers still believe that
wheat. under certain conditions. will
turn to cheat BE on the safe and sen
sible side, and clean your wheat seed
well by running it through a good
tanning mill or other seed cleaning
machine.
II you clean all Of the cheat and
ether weed seed out Of it, and there is
no cheat in your fields. take my word
for it. your next years wheat crop will
be clean wheat
If your own wheat seed is poor, by
all means purchase good seed, not
only for a good crop next year, but
for the seed and the crops for the fol-
lowing years. One Of the best invest
ments that any farmer can make Is
in good seeds Of all kinds There is
nc mistake about this.

If sweet potatoes are kept until

Tor it.
The proposition is this: The
people Of Dickson the past two
years have donated and paid out
more than Sl.250,00 in premiums,
besides their labor, which was free,
and gave to the people two Of the
best county fairs pulled of in the

was decided to ask the county
court 10 help this FALL as the money
paid out on premiums goes right

chants OF Dickson would put up
their pro rata part and the court
house grounds would be enclosed
and reasonable entrance fee
charged BY this method the fair
could be held and the burden
would be on all and not just a few.
