make it. The territory is wide, our

HOG KILLING IS ON
In THE COUNTY
FIRST INSTALLMENT OF PORK
ERS Is FORCED TO YIELD
UP GHOST.

Hog killing has commenced in Maui
ry county. The weather this morning
was decidedly favorable for the
slaughter of the festive porkers and
a good many of them yielded up the
ghost although it will be some time
before any large per cent of the farm
ers go to preparing their meat for the
winter. Many of the farmers prefer to
wait until after the first real cold
spell before they kill hogs. However,
corn is high and number have TAX

the feed bill The forecast for to-
night is very favorable for those who

FOR FOURTH YEAR
A BOY Of CULLEOKA
MAKES CORN RECORD
ANOTHER SON OF HILL MkIB-
BON PRODUCES AN UNUSUAL
YIELD.
In SPITE OF SEVERE DROUIH
More Than Ninety-Five Bushels Are
Raised on the Acre That In 1911
Made the States Record and Again
the Following Year won Prize.

For the fourth successive year,
Son Of Hill McKibbon, of Crystal
Springs Farm, near Culleoka, has
made an exceptional record for corn
yield. For the second year Howard,
one of the young sons of Mr.. McKib-
bon, has made an enviable record.
In spite of the severest drouth that
section of the county has ever known,
Howard McKibbon this year produced
on an acre of land 95.S bushels of
corn. Last year on the same acre,
and in the face of a drouth severe but
not equal to that of this year, he pro-
duced about the same crop.
1t was. on this same acre of land
that in 1911 John Van McKibbon, a
brother of Howard, made 1863 bushels
of corn and established the record for
tennessee, one never equalled since.
In the year following, another brother,
Herbert, made on the same acre of
land .15S and a fraction bushels, being
the largest yield made in Tennessee
in that year.
In four years this one acre of land
has made SIT bushels of corn, an av-
erage yield per annum of one hundred
and twenty-nine and one quarter
bushels. There is probably not anoth-
er acre of land in Tennessee that has
made so much corn in that length of
time. And this has been done too in
the face of two years of insufficient
rainfall. The land lies right on Foun-
tain creek and has been literally ma
nured during the period, but it has
probably yielded better profit than
any other acre ever planted to corn in
the county.
Averaging the corn at So per BARREL
which would be low for the period
covered by these crops, the yield dur
ing the four years has been $4,000 or
an average of more than SIS per an
mum. AS a matter of fact the income
from the acre, outside of the value of
the prizes won, has been much larger,
as a considerable portion of this corn
has been sold at fancy prices for seed
This record indicates what good cul-
tivation, proper attention and hard
work will do on Maury county lands
The boy who made the splendid yield
this year is only fourteen years of
age. Mr.. McKibbon has a younger
son who next year will try to distance
all these records on the same acre of
land.
The acre of land was again meas
ured this year by Capt. M. B. Tom
linson, we'll known surveyor, and
he gathering of the corn was witness
ed and it was weighed in the presence
of three of the leading farmers of that
section.

OIJAIL WERE ONLY
FAIRLY NUMEROUS
SOME HUNTERS GOT SEVERAL,
OTHERS HAD BUT INDIFFER.
EMIT SUCCESS.

The hunters from the city who went
quail hunting Monday, had varying
degrees of success. Some came back
with bags pretty well filled, while 9th
ers had little beyond day OF fine ex-
ercise and few stray shots. Some
were experimenting with young dogs,
while others with the best found but
few birds.
Charles Sharp and w. c. Whit
thorne, according to all reports; had
the best luck, as they are said to
have killed thirty-three birds during
the day. They struck several nice
coveys, and shooting like LeCompte
and other professionals, they bagged
enough to have two or three pretty
good meals of quail on toast.
