We do not raise enough to eat in this
favored section, says the secretary,
and no one will deny that he speaks
the truth. We have allowed cotton
to be king too long. 1t should be "a
subject. This whole Southland Of
ours is especially favored as a food
producing section. We can grow all
kinds of grains and we can also pro-
duce beef and sheep and hogs. These
facts are most forcefully presented
by the head of the nations agricultu-
raj department and 1t is earnestly to
be hoped that the people will act upon
his wise suggestions.
There is no question" says Mr..
Houston, that the average farmer in
the settled areas can produce without
great expense large number Of beef
animals if only as by products to the
betterment of his farm economy. In
this direction the farmer of the South
enjoys unusual opportunities.
"The last census" Mr.. Houston
points out, Shows a lamentable neg
lect of live stock in the South. The
average Iowa farm has six milk cows;
in North Carolina and Alabama it has
less than two; in South Carolina one.
1.-THE average Iowa farm has thirty
five hogs; in North Carolina and Ala
bama it has less than five; in South
Carolina less than four.
The average farmer in Iowa has
more than 1903 head of poultry; in
North Carolina and Alabama he has
less than 20; in South Carolina less
than II.
"An investigator recently said that
the average farm in Georgia produces
less than two eggs per week; less
than two-thirds ounces Of butter;
two-thirds of pint of milk; one-third
of a hog: LIP of beef; 1-100 of
sheep year for each member of the
family, and the cotton crop of the
state does not pay the states food
and feed bill.
Twelve Southern states import
SIZE, 100000 worth of wheat, corn and
oats. The same states import $4S,-
100000 worth of meat, milk and poul-
try products"
The South can grow cattle, sheep |
and hogs as we'll as any other section
Of the United States.
There is enough land in the South |
TO grow all the cattle, hogs, sheep |
and all the feed stuff for hogs that |
he Southern people could consume.

PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.

In his great and patriotic speech to
congress on Monday, President Will
son voiced the sentiment of the great
majority of the American people. His
reply to the militarists breathed the
true spirit of Americanism. 1t was
Che faith of the real democrat. He
very properly rebuked the alarmists
who would impose untold burdens
upon the people of this country in Or
der that we might compete with the
military mad world of the whole coun-
try.
In spite of the frantic appeals
from eminently respectable sources
for a larger navy and an immense
standing army there is today less
reason for either in this nation than
there has ever been. The only pow
ers upon the globe that might make
anything like an effective attack
upon our country are locked in a
death struggle; they are wasting and
destroying their substance, killing
their best manhood and piling up
debt that generations yet unborn
must pay if it is ever paid at all.
The United States is not an i'm
perialist 1t desires nothing from
its neighbors but peace and good
will 1t does not need great army
to maintain peace at home. The
very moment it yields willing ear
to the jingoists, that moment it ceases
to be a great and free and justice
loving people 1t then embraces the
horrid doctrine that might makes
right. The patriotism and love of
justice of the American people are
their surest defense. Away with
the notion that peoples greatness
is measured by their ability to MUIR
der and destroy. The Presidents
words were timely; they will live
forever.

GOV. HooPER's HOME.

! Newspapers of Knoxville, Chatta-
nooga, Jackson and Memphis, have
extended Gov. Hooper cordial invi-
tation to come to those cities and
make his future home. Why should
not the governor not come to Column
bia and Maury county and settle the
whole matter? If he should make
this choice the chief executive of the
state would be assured of hearty
welcome. He has probably as many
admirers and friends in this county
as he has in any county in Tennessee.
If he plans, at the expiration of his
office to devote his entire time to pri-
vate affairs, we do not know where he
could find a better location than in
the ''Dimple of the Universe"
The governor is a good lawyer.
Lawyers do not get rich in Maury,
but good ones, and most of ours are
in that class, make a mighty good
living and in addition have the privi-
lege of living in this county which
all will testify is worth whole lot.
The governor is quite a real estate
investor. He might not make as
large and as quick profits on Maury
county lands as he has made. or is
reputed to have made on some of his
western investments but assuredly
he would make much safer invest
ments if he bought Maury county
farms. If life in Columbia proved a
bit too strenuous for even our Teddy
ike governor he would find living
amid the rural beauties of Old Maury
JOY everlasting. We have sufficient
confidence in the wisdom and judg-
ment of Gov. Hooper to believe that
he will give serious consideration to
what we have here said before he f.
nally selects a permanent home.

THE DlMPLE OF THE UNIVERSE.

Down South it has long been the
fashion to take ones Waverly novels
seriously, and no doubt the wisdom
of Sir Walter Scott is to argue

cade before the great Civil war will
never be known, but that it's influ-

spurious gold whose falsity was dis
covered all too late.
Gideon Welles, member of Lin
coins cabinet, writing for his own
eye and no other in that wonderful
diary he kept, said during the war
that SCOTS novels had led the South
ern people into a foolish struggle.
Mark Twain, thirty-odd years be-
fore Welles' diary was published,
said the same thing in Life on the
Mississippi" and presented proofs.
He told of a girls school in an old
Southern town which was modelled
intellectually on the lines of Ken

les were 1.-THE Lady of the Lake" and
"Marmion."
Years after the blue and gray tide
had ebbed and flowed thrice through
the streets Of that old town. there
arose there a poet. He read the Wa
verify novels, bred race horses and
and wrote poetry. A gentleman he.

THE COLORADO STRIKE.

President Wilson has scored anoth-
er distinct triumph in his settlement
Of the long Colorado coal strike. This
strike has been in progress for fifteen
months. During that time thousands
and thousands of dollars worth of
property have been destroyed and
many persons have been killed. The
territory covered by the strikers has
been terrorized and neither life nor
property has been safe. For months
all efforts to effect a sttlement were
blocked first by one side and then
by the other Doubtless both the
miners and the operators were to
blame Neither showed that spirit Of
concession and compromise necessary
to an adjustment Of differences.
That the miners had some real griev-
ances no one will question; that they
resorted to unlawful methods to right
their wrongs is also true. 1t is equal
ly as plain, even in the mass Of con-
fiicting testimony that the operators
were entirely too arbitrary and too
selfish in their dealings with the men,
Thanks to the President peace has
at last been restored and upon q ba-
sis that is reasonably fair to both
sides. Let us hope that this means
an era of peace and quiet and justice
In the coal fields Of Colorado that
will not soon end.

PUBLIC ECONOMY.

During campaigns the democrats
make the welkin ring with denuncia
tons of extravaganza in government
They make all sorts of promises Of
economy and retrenchment. In the
democratic national platform of 1912
the democratic party was scathing in
it's denunciation of republican extrav
agance. 1t pledged itself to reduc
ton of government expenses, to the
abolition of useless Offices and to a
stoppage of all leaks in governmental
expenditures. We are frank to ad-
NIT that these promises have not
been kept. The appropriations made
by the democrats are just about as
large as those they but short time
before so eloquently and earnestly de-
nounced when made by the republi-
cans. Feeding the hungry patriots
who helped to win glorious victory
for the democratic party is evidently
different proposition from keeping
lot of republican "grafters" at the
pie counter.
In Tennessee the democratic party
faces a somewhat similar situation.
One of the issues in the recent cam
paign was the extravaganza" of the
republican administration and it's fail
ure to pay anything upon the public
debt Our party orators grew red in
the face in their appeals for strict
er economy in government. We had
great deal to say about the useless
fire marshals and the surplus of in
spectors, about officials who SEEM
ingly had nothing to do but draw
their salaries and play politics for the
Hooper administration.
Now will the party, when it returns
to complete power next month, forget
its prediction pledges of economy
and reform in administration? Are
we going to reward lot of party heel
ers with Offices that are useless?
Will the party return to that simple
ity and enconomy which once char
acterized it's administration Of affairs
in this state, when large annual pay
ments were made on the state debt?
These are questions that should re-
ceive the most earnest consideration
from our legislators. There are too
many officials in this state for the
amout of work required of them. Sal
aries have been raised at the capitol
out OF all proportion to the services
required or performed. We can and
should make some notable reductions
in this line. Times are not as flush
in Tennessee as they have been,
taxes are not going to be paid as
promptly, especially in the cotton sec.
tions, as they have been in the past.
1t behooves the democrats to prac-
tice the most rigid economy in every
line OF government. Let US hope that
the democrats Of the state, unlike the
democrats of the nation, will have
more regard for economy in govern.

turns 20 power. ~1t-,E. -..
