Mexico Past and Present.

Although Mexico is our neighhor or
the south. it is astonishing how little
about that country is known among
people of the United States. How many
adults remember all the details in the
days when they studied geography and
stood up, hating. in the class and be-
gan in this way
Mexico is bounded on the north by
the United States CT America, with the
States OF California, Arizona, New
Mexico and Texas touching its bordert
The Pacific Ocean forms its entire
western and southern boundary, with
the exception of YucataE. giving it
Pacific coast line of nearly 5000 miles.
1t was easy to remember that the
eastern boundary was the Gulf of Mex
leo.
When the high school was reached
most pupils promptly forgot tif they
ever heard that the name Mexico is
related to, or derived from, the Aztec
national war god, Mexitli. 1t was
these Aztecs who founded the City Of
Mexico in 1925. 4
Before that time it was known as
Anahuac, which signifies near the
water" =
1t was the early Spanish explorers
who first discovered Mexico in 15lI-
1918. Ferdinand Cortez, the greav
Spanish explorer, landed in 1919 and
commenced that famous conquest of
Mexico so graphically described by tha
American historian, w. II. Prescott
Cortez had shown such courage and
ability in the conquest of Cuba, which
VelasoueZ begun in 1911, that he was
appointed by Velasquez commander of
an expedition against the newly dis
covered Mexico. With eleven vessels,
ten cannon and 700 men he started out,
Landing on the site of the present
Vera Cruz, he burned his ships il or
der that his men might be forced to
conquer or perish. They conquered.
After several bloody battles he en-
tered the City of Mexico in Novemberf
1919 without resistance. MonteZuma,
the Aztec emperor, after receiving the
Spaniards with hospitality, was made
prisoner in his own palace by his auda-
cious guests.
Mexico remained a little known
country until the great traveller, Alex
ender Won Humboldt, visited and ex-,
plored it in 1799-1S04.
Since that day it has had a troubled
history. crowded with wars and revoluz
lions. 1t has been by turns king
dom, empire, republic, again an empire,
then once more a republic, always uny
settled in government and afflicted by
Instructions and revolutions even to
the present day. Z

VARIETY OF CORN IS RECOMMENDED

by Mr.. w. H. Neal, of Lebanon. Seed
can probably be secured of these gen.
tlemen at the places named Albe-
marie Prolific has proven the best. en-
silage variety. Lewis Prolific is
leader in the trials at the West Ten
nessee Experiment Station, at Jack
son. Meals Paymaster is an excel
lent red-cob sort for fertile uplands.
Looney is also a variety of much
promise.
Among the yellow corns, Reid's Vel
low Dent is an excellent early sort for
hogging off in August, succeeding on
the better class of upland soils
throughout the state; and Leaning,
somewhat earlier than Reid's, is we'll
suited to the Cumberland Plateau.
For rich lands two varieties of Ten
nessee origin, now recognized as stand
ard commercial sorts, have proven of
superior excellence in all PARTS of the
state; Webb's Improved Watson, bred
in Bedford county, is medium-season
corn of unusual soundness; Huffman,
also originated in Bedford, is a late
season, heavy-yieiding sort, with large
ears and deep grain, requiring the
richest soil for best results. Hjldreth
is high-yielding yellow corp from
Kansas.
OF the varieties named above, Learn
ing and Reid's Yellow Dent mature
August 20 to September Z; Hickory
King, Albemarle Prolific, and Meals
Paymaster, September lie; Lewis
Prolific, Looney, Webb's Improved
Watson and Hildreth. September 4-1S;
and Huffman September 11-25.

For best results the plants should
be thinned. This is done must cheaply
by turning the runners into the rows
through the summer, gradually widen
ing the rows until they are about IS
inches wide. In October rake out all
slightly rooted plants by Using po-
tato fork crosswise of the rows. A
great many will be removed, but
plenty to produce heavy crop will be
left.
In January the entire bed should be
covered with a very thin layer of
straw. The straw should be put on
so thin that the plants can grow up
through it in the spring, thus keeping
the fruit clean.
Immediately after the crop is har-
vested bar off the rows on each side
with turning plow; distribute fer
tilizer in the furrows; thin the rows
to single plants Of the previous years
growth a foot apart, and cultivate
thoroughly throughout the summer.
In this way a bed can be kept in high
state of production for ten years or
more. If neglected it will not produce
paying crops after the second year.

The plan to raise the fund to
build the auditorium on the West
Tennessee Experimental Farm at
Jackson is FOR every person who
wants to go to the fall convention
to pay one dollar. which consti-
tutes him a delegate. This is the
plan adopted and being carried
out in all the counties. Mr.
DeBerry, president of the con-
vention. writes that by the 18th
inst. they want to know how
much has been paid in so they
can go to work at once on the
building. He relies on the Editor
of the Independent to get the
matter up at once IN this county.
This is a feasible plan and for
once there can be no complaint
about selecting delegates. The
one dollar paid in to this office
will place anyone on the list of
delegates. Mr.. DeBerry says he
can get transportation for even
more delegates than usual. I'm
mediately on learning plan, send
name and dollar to Independent
office. No delegates will be Sc
lected in any other way. Prof.
Morgan says they must know the
money is on hand before they let
contract. Call at once and be
on the delegate roll.

West Tennessee Christian Mission
ary Convention

Owing to the downpour Monday
night the convention did not meet.
Tuesday morning the Christian
Woman's Board of Missions of West
Tennessee in third annual convention
met, with Mrs. G. N. Downey, of
Memphis. presiding.
After devotional exercises, Mayor
j. G. Houston delivered the welcome
address, which was replete with sense
and humor. Seldom have we heard a
nicer welcome address, which was re-
sponded to by Lee Glass, Christian
Endeavor worker, who responded in a
happy manner.
Miss Verda Anderson also delivered
an address of welcome on behalf of
the women of Selmer, which was re-
plete with kind expressions Of well
come. Mrs. Comfy of Alamo feeling
ly responded.
The annual address of the presi-
dent was next on the program, fol-
lowed by reports of the various Off
GERS and committees.
The first session was attended by
about fifty visitors, who came Mon
day night while one of the heaviest
rains was falling, and most of them,
composed of more than one half
ladies, had drenching in getting to
their assignments. The morning of
Tuesday being clear brought sun
shine to smiling faces.
The convention held interesting
sessions, closing Wednesday night.

numerous cooperative demonstrations
in Middle Tennessee. Contrary to COM
mon belief, a really first-class variety
is well adapted to a large extent of
territory AS an example may be men,
toned the Hickory King, variety of
corn which has proven its high worth
In East Tennessee, the Cumberland
Plateau, the Highland Rim, and else
where in the state Certhinly it is the
part Of wisdom to give special atten-
tion to those varieties which have
proven their excellence in comparative
and unbiased trials.
The dates of harvesting given are
those obtained at the Knoxville Sta
ton. They would be the same for the
greater part of East and Middle Ten
nessee, and from week to ten days
earlier in the southern tier of counties
and. the western section OF the state.
For common uplands throughout
Tennessee Hickory King is a standard
white variety that can be obtained Of
all seedsmen. Varieties Of local origin
that have proven their worth in COM
parative trials are the Looney corn,
originated near Winchester, by Mr. c.
s. Looney; the Lewis Prolific, origi-
mated near Mckenzie, by Mr.. E. F.

STRAWBERRIES FOR HOME USE
&C. A. Keffer, University of Tennessee.)

Early April is the best time for set
ting strawberries. For home use plant
three to five kinds, so as to prolong
the fruiting season as much as pos
sible. A good selection would be
Michels Early or Carrie, Lady Thomp-
son, Klondyke or Three w, Aroma,
Candy. This list should keep the
household supplied from early in May
until the middle of June
For an average family so feet of row
of five varieties well cared for would
give a great abundance Of fruit. For
preserving, Aroma and Candy are the
best kinds, being large, firm and rich
colored The Three w is an excep-
tionally handsome berry of fine quality
Land rich in vegetable matter is the
best for strawberries. A good, rich
loan into which cowpeas or clover has
been turned, should produce great
crops. A good commercial fertilizer
would be mixture of 400 pounds cot
tonseed meal, 800 pounds high-grade
acid phosphate, so pounds muriate of
potash, used under the rows at the
rate of 500 pounds per acre.
Prepare the gfound we'll, and lay
off the rows 5 feet apart. Set the
plants feet apart in the rows, and
plant firm, being careful neither to ex-
pose the roots nor cover the crown.
For best results cultivate often and
hoe in the rows to prevent crust
forming on the soil. The first plants
to form give the best crop, but plants
continue to form throughout the grow
ing season, thus making the rows very
thick by the time killing frost comes.

Ito San-Extra early For rather
rich land only. Natures for hay, July

ber 6.
Mammoth Yellow-The most com,
mon variety known. Adapted to all
soils. Natures for hay, September
1880; for seed, October 7-21.
By the use of Ito San, Haberlandt,
Acme and Tokyo, continuous crop of
soy beans can be had for hogging off
from July to October 1t would be
hard to find better feed for growing
hogs, but in the last few weeks of
feeding, corn should be substituted
for soy beans to harden the fat.
