MORE THAN THOUSAND POUNDS

COMPANY.

Although the Culleoka Produce
Company shipped mgore than 1000
turkeys for the Thanksgiving market,
in the opinion of E. ]. Park, of that
firm, only small portion of the tur-
keys in that locality have been sold.
I'VE hardly touched turkeys in this
section" said Mr. Park. "The peo-
pie are holding for better prices, but
l am by no means persuaded that
they will not be disappointed.
doubt if we will be able to pay more
than we have been paying. Howev-
er, I hope for the best prices"
Even 1000 turkeys, averaging about
fifteen pounds from the Culleoka
country, is a pretty good shipment
These turkeys brought the farmers
eleven cents a pound or over $1,000
The Christmas shipments, no doubt
will be two or three times this
amount. The turkeys are in fine con
dition and with favorable weather
vii take on more flesh.

MIDDLE TENNESSEE STATE NOE.
MAJ INAuGuRATlNG PLAN FOR
EXTENSIVE WORK.

MURFREESBORO, Tenn, Nov. 20.
upon the theory and belief
that strictly academic curriculum is
the dry rot of education, the faculty
of the Middle Tennessee State Nor
mai has this year planned and is now
putting into operation a scheme
whereby some extension work is to
be done through the medium of the
county institutes throughout Middle
Tennessee. This plan calls for a
monthly visit to the institute by some
member of the faculty where the edu-
cational problems peculiar to that
county are discussed and a possible
solution suggested. And in addition
to delivering talks along the above
lines some vocational training is be-
ing given the rural teachers. Simple
problems of construction that may
be done in rural schools with a jack
knife, and experiments in elementary
home economics are being given, to-
'gether with lectures 'on sanitation,
ventilation personal hygiene and
school management.

LITTLE TROUBLEIN
GETTING MULES
DALE TALKS OF WAR
CONTRACTS he is FILLING
NOW.

We are getting all the mules that
we want for the army contracts
which we have" sid Frank Dale this
morning. Mr. Dale, who is the man
ager of the Columbia Stock Yards, is
now temporarily in Nashville super
vising the buying and the receiving
of the thousands of mules for the
war by the Guyton-Harrington Mule
Co., of Kansas City.
up to Nov. Is, we bought the 5000
for the British, with whom we had a
contract for that number. We filled
it with little trouble, and we are now
buying 5000 more for them, which
are to be delivered Dec. Is. But few
of these mules have been bought in
Middle Tennessee, where the farmers
were unwilling to take war prices for
their stuff They wanted the prices
that they have been accustomed to
getting for them. However, down in
Mississippi, West Tennessee, and in
some other states, we have had lit
tie trouble in buying all that we want
ed at the prices called for in the con-
tract. In fact, I believe that we could
have as easily gotten 10000 this
month as the 5000 for which we have
a contract"

HUNGARIAN NEWSPAPER RE
PORTER PASSED THROUGH

James Singer, a twenty-three year
old Hungarian, who stated that he is
reporting for a large newspaper in
his native country, passed through
the city Monday on his way from New
York to San Francisco
He arrived in the city Sunday after
noon just before dusk, and as he was
rather a strange looking character
and spoke very broken English. he
came very near landing in the city
lookup for the night. However, one
of the city patrolmen, who was a Ma
son, recognized the signs that he
made and readily took him to the no
tel for the night. His badge and the
uniqueness of his trip attracted a
large crowd in the lobby during the
evening.
Singer claims that if he arrives in
San Francisco by June 1, 1915, he
will receive $4,000 from his paper
He also stated that he had written
reports to it every three days He
was associate editor of the paper in
Budapest, Hungary, but was forced
to take a sentence of three years in
Jail, or leave the country on account
of some statements which he made
with reference to the Emperor Franz
Josef.
He started from eNw York with but
three cents in his pocket. He had lit

the officer said that he had but SIPS

SHORT COURSE TO
BEGIN NEXT MONDAY
SCHOOL FOR FARMERS TO BE
HELD OVER EVANS, PAR
kER G. MoORE'S.

One week from today the short
course in agriculture to be conduct
ed by experts from the experiment
station at Knoxville, will begin in
Columbia. All arrangements for the
school were completed Saturday aft
ernoon by Secretary Arthur E. Muir
ply, of the Maury County Farmers
Association. The school will be held
at the room over Evans, Parker G.
Moore on West Seventh street.
Thls room was rendered to Mr..
Murphy by Evans, Parker & Moore
some time ago. The firm of Harlan,
Porter & Walker also generously ten
dered the use of their big warehouse
on Court Square. However, after an
investigation of the two buildings,
Mr.. Murphy was of the opinion that
the one offered by Evans, Parker &
Moore would be the more suitable,
and that was accordingly selected.
The store room selected is large,
we'll lighted and will be comfortably
heated. 1t already has plenty of
light for the evening sessions, and
is right in the center of the city. 1t
is believed that all who so to hear the
lectures at this building will remain
during the entire sessions
The experiment station is making
preparations to give the people of
Maury county better course in agri-
culture than ever given here. There
will be car load of stock and other
equipment for the purpose of DEM
onstrating the lectures that will be
given.
The short course will commence on
next Monday morning and will last
for the full week, there being ses,
siOns both in the morning and after
noon and also lectures at night.

hold good through all time, is that the
aggressive which keeps at it always
wins. We take the aggressive. In the
space where Napoleon deployed a di-
vision, we deploy a battalion today.
The precision and power of modern
arms require this. With such immense
forces and present-day tactics, the line
Of battle will practically cover the
length of the frontier. Along their
range the Browns have a series of
fortresses commanding natural open
ings for our attack. These are almost
impregnable. But there are pregnable
points between them. Here, our
method will be the same that the Japa-
nese followed and that they learned
from European armies. We shall con-
centrate in masses and throw in wave

gained the positions we desire. Once
we have a tenable foothold on the

must fall back and the rest will be a

Town and community are not made
prosperous by the money that is sent
away, but by the money that is spent
at home. The best possible way, in
fact the only practical way to make
this community more prosperous is
to make it more populous; we must
have more people right here to con,
sumo what we produce and sell. So far
as the wealth and prosperity of the
community are concerned, they will be
promoted as directly by the purchase
and resumption of what is sold as by
the consumption of what is produced
here. In other words things must be
bought here and the money spent and
used here if the community is to pros
per as it should.
