ed, but all were too high. The low
est submitted was that of Afford
Bros, who offered to make the repairs
for about $4,000.
This was considerably in excess of
the appropriation, which is to be tax.
en- from the $4,000 derived from the
sale of the bonds. The committee
had counted on spending only about
$4,000 or $4,000 for the repairs. A
subcommittee was appointed to con-
fer with Afford Bros, and eliminate
certain features from the plans which
would reduce the cost of the repairs.
The plans, which were drawn by
the official architects of the city
schools, Hart & Gardner, of Nash.
vile, were declared to be very accept
able. They provide for an almost
complete renovation of the old An
drews building, it's division into
twelve class rooms, an addition to
the front, the installation of heat
ing plant, and many other features
which wf1l make the school just as
satisfactory as if new building were
erected.
The subcommittee will at once
take up with Afford Bros, the ques-
tion of the elimination of certain fea-
lures that will diminish the cost. If
these can be cut out and the cost
lessened somewhat, the contract will
be let and work start at once upon
them. At any rate, some kind Of &C
tion must be taken soon, as the pres
ent school facilities are not sufficient
for the needs of the number Of chill
dren which go to school here.
At the same time that this sub
committee is working upon the An
drews school plans, the rest of the
building committee will continue to
work upon the plans Of the new high
school quarters.

URGES FARMERS TO
SAVE CORN Slower
FOR COMING WINTER
SETH w. WAKEFIELD, OF BEECH
LAWN, GIVES THEM SOUND
ADVICE.
GREAT SCARCITY OF HAYS
Makes It Necessary That the Stalks
and Fodder Of the Corn Shrould
Not Be Lost-Little Grain This
Year to Damage in Cutting.

Il wonder if the farmers Of Maury
county fully realize that on the ques-
tion of hay they are going to be decid-
edly up against it this winter" said
Seth W. Warfeld, of beautiful
Beechlawn, one of the leading farm
ers Of the county.
Not in the memory Of the proverb-
ial oldest inhabitant," continued Mr..
Warfeld, have we had such pauci-
ty of hay in the county. Forage Of
all kinds is going to bring a premium.
Now how can we avoid this scarcity !?
There is remedy and one that l
would earnestly urge the farmers Of
Maury county to adopt.
I'VE are letting enough Of good,
palatable and nutritious corn stover
go to waste to keep every horse, mule
and head Of cattle in the county. And
we can keep them on this stover In
good condition during the winter.
There are hundreds of acres Of good
rich corn stalks that are full of nu-
tritious syrups syrups and sap that
are dying out every day and will soon
be indigestible and tasteless.
1T is my judgment that the cutting
of corn when the stover will be good
will damage the grain for twenty or
thirty per cent. On general princi-
pies | do not believe in cutting corn,
but this year there is no grain; II we
do not save the stover we get neith-
er forage nor grain. To get the best
results the corn should be cut now,
while it is rich with juices and be-
fore its value is destroyed. Don't
bother about the smoot, for that can
easily be knocked off with the knife.
If the corn is cut now every bit Of It
will be eaten with relish. There is
little grain to damage, but why not
save the stover OF course the silo
Is the best way to save it, but those
who have no silo can cut and shock
with splendid results"

AGED EMPEROR FRANCIS JOSEPH
WORKS FOURTEEN HOURS DAILY
E1GHTY-FOUR YEAR OLD DMONARCH HAS RULED
LONGER THAN ANY OTHER CROWN
ED HEAD OF EUROPE OF
THE PRESENT DAY.
TRAGIC FATE HAS ALWAYS PURSUED cAREER-HIs WIFE
WAS STABBED BY ANARCHISTS IN 1898, HIS OLDEST SON
COMMITTED SUICIDE, AND THIS YEAR HIS HEIR WAS AssAs
sINATED IN sERviA BY HOSTILE NATIVES.

VIENNA, Aug. 19.-The aged EN-.
peror Francis Joseph, of Austria
Hungary, who has ruled longer than
any other crowned head in the world
and who more than year ago was
supposedly dying of old age, is work.
ing fourteen hours day during the
war crisis.
Ever since the var clouds began
to gather over Austria and Servia
following the assassination in Bosnia
OF Archduks Francis Ferdinand, heir
to the throne of the dual monarchy,
Emperor Francis Joseph has gone to
his executive Office at o'clock each
morning and remained there, steadily
at work, with but brief intervals for
meals, until at night.
When the trouble with Servia first
became serious, his imperial majesty
was at Ischl, the summer capital. 1t
was there that he began his fourteen
hour day working schedule. He
gave up his shooting excursions,
which are his favolite amusement
and devoted al his waking hourse to
WORK.
Shortly after the threatened war
became an actually, Emperor Fran.
els Joseph returned to Vienna and
since then has been at work two
hours more than half of each day.
The old ruler is in no sense figure
head. He, perhaps more even than
the German Kaiser, is the actual head
|of his government. Francis Joseph
really is directing every move of the
Austrian army in the great wra. Not
a step is taken without his approval.
Perhaps no European ruler has liv-
ed more pathetically tragic life than
Emperor Francis Joseph. Born Aug.
1S, 1880, he is "a years old and has
ruled nearly &C years ascending the
throne of Austria Dec. 2, 1S4S, when
but IS years old. Austria later form
ed a union with Hungary and Francis
Joseph was crowned king of Hungary
June s, 1867. His official title is EN-
peror of Austria and King of Hunga-
~.
Countless tragedies have saddened
the life of the emperor, violent
deaths, domstic unhappiness and
scandal. Almost all the aged rulers
relatives have died violent deaths.
His wife, Empress Elizabeth, the
daughter Duke of Maximilian of Ba-
varia, whom he married in 1854, was
stabbed to death by an archist at &C.
neva, Switzerland, Sept. 10, 1898.
Archduke Rudolph, the first heir
apparent, born in 1858, committed su-
icide in 1889.
The emperor's oldest brother, Arch
duke Ferdinand Macmillan, who be-
came emperor of Mexico for brief
time, was shot to death at Quaretaro,
in that country in 1867.
After the death of Archduke Ru-
dolph, the succession to the throne
passed to the emperor's second broth
er, Archduke Charles Louis. He died
in 1896 and his son, Archduke Francis
Ferdinand, became the heir apparent.
In June Of this year Archduke Fran.
els Ferdinand was assassinated in
Bosnia. His death was the direct,
though not the primary cause Of the
present war.

GERMAN ARMIES JOIN.
Six Hundred Thousand Effect a juno.
ture Near MosseIIe for Oper.
ations Against French.

international News Service.
LONDON, Aug. 19.-Real interest
today centered around Ardennes re-
gion in the south of Belgium and
northern France. 1t is believed that
the German armies of the Meuse and
Mosselle have effected junction
there and hurled 100000 troops against
the French and English. The iron
hand of the censors permits no re-
ports to come through. However,
the warning of the government to &C.
cept no reports spread by the enc
my, is taken by many to mean that
the allies have met with reverses.
This, however. is speculation.
Great Britain is sending more
troops to the continent.
The Columbia herald. [volume] (Columbia, Tenn.) 18??-1935, 1914-08-21
international News Service.)


LONDON, Aug. 19.-Men and
guns, battleships and aeroplanes are
necessary for war, Of course, but the
prime requisite of modern warfare is
money-financial resources are the
real "sinews of war" and, in long
drawn out conflict, money is more
necessary. even than soldiers, arms
and ammunition.
1t has been estimated by experts
that with Germany, England, France,
Russia, Austria-Hungary and Servia
at war, the daily cost will aggregate
$54,000,000. Military men predict
that Italy, Holland, and perhaps Tur-
key and the Balkan states will get
into the conflict. One hundred mil
lion dollars would then be fair esti-
mate of the daily money cost of the
huge conflagration.
The German Reichstag at the out
set voted more than $1,OOO,OO0, 1000.
The British parliament voted over
$500,000, 900 at first and followed this
with another $50O,0OO,OOO making the
British appropriation total $1,000
100000. The Russian war appropria-
tions have topped the billion dollar
mark and France has not been be-
hind.
In gigantic war like the one now
on, the bankers of the world are as
powerful, perhaps more powerful,
than the rulers of the nations involv.
cd.
France already has appealed to
New York bankers for a loan of $780,.
100000. Should this be made, the
money would not be sent to France.
1t would be left in the United States
and its equivalent in foodstuffs and
non-contraband supplies would be
shipped from New York to France.
The Importance of the financial fac
tor has never beec more obvious
than now when the European war
has thrown the stock exchanges and
bourses of the world out of business.
When so vital part of the financial
structure is taken away, all the usual
data that goes to indicate nations
financial standing, becomes to a great
extent valueless, but they are still of
use for purposes of rough compari-
son.
Of the amount Of hard cash that
the warning nations of Europe have
at their command, the returns of the
state banks are the best guides avail
able. According to recent weekly re-
turns, the five Great powers now at
war have the following amounts of
coin and bullion in their central
banks:
France ...... 80. 80. .$948, 500 900
Russis ...... 49,. ..... 1872, 800, 900
Germany %. ....... -. .$422,500, 900
Austria Hungary -. 1922, ,000, 900
Great Britain -. 80. ..$2O1, ,OOO, 900
These could only become available
as a war chest If their primary func-
tion as backing for paper currency
and credit were suspended. They
are of greatest value when exercising
that function. Although England's
central gold reserve is the smallest
of the five, it is said in banking cir
cles to be the most valuable because
lit forms the backing of an immense
volume of credit Of international val
|ue.
