First County to Start.

Kanabec county is the first county
in Minnesota to take advantage Of the
provisions of the county option law
that became effective through Gov
ernor Hammond's signature Monday.
A petition is already in circulation
there, asking for a special election
with the aim of making the entire
county dry. Henry Rines, former
speaker of the House, leads the list
of signers.
Kanabec county is practically sa'
loonless now, the towns and villages
by the exercise Of local option having
shut out saloons. If the county op'
ton law provisions become effective
it will extend the dry zone to include
all territory outside the towns and
villages as we'll as the communities
themselves.
Koochiching county is also said to
have already taken action.

Many Farmers Decide to Grow
Less Cotton and More Cattle
New Life in the Work
EXCELLENT RESULTS OBTAINED
Bankers Offer to Loan Farmers of the
County $4,000 at Reduced Rate of
Interest on Long Time Notes With
Which to Buy Cattle.
(By R. NJ. Murphy. Division of Exten'
sion. University of Tennessee.)

(By R. NJ. Murphy, Division of Exten-
sion, University of Tennessee)
Sentiment in favor of better live
stock is rapidly developing into action.
Gibson county farmers have decided
No grow less cotton and more cattle. A
movement started a few weeks ago
amongst the bankers of the county re-
suited in their offer to loan the farm
ers SIS 100000 at reduced rate of in
terest on long time notes. This slim
Mated the farmers into immediate &C
ton. A committee was appointed to
decide whether or not efforts should
be confined to one breed of cattle and
If 80. which one. The committee de-
cided unanimously in favor of the
Hereford A buying committee was
Amounted and as soon as cattle could
be located they started after them.
Each banker looked after his own pa
irons. Notes were given by the farm
ers, placing at the disposal OF the
buying committee sums varying in
amounts according to the kind and
we're made for $4,000 for bulls, and
5000 90 for bred heifers and cows, so
that there would be safe margin.
The bankers decided to allow one OF
their number to handle the entire sum.
When all of the notes were in, each
of the other banks mailed checks for
the respective amounts to the bank
selected and the buying committee
drew a draft on this bank for the en-
tire amount.
The cattle were located in Western
Missouri and consisted of bulls rang
ing in ages from IL to Is months, bred
heifers. and number of cows with
calves at foot and bred again, totaling
IS head exclusive of the young calves.
they arrived home in excellent shape
and with two more calves than they
started with, both in good spirits
These cattle were bought in small
lots; on the average, not more than
two head going to one man. Upon
their arrival home they were greeted
by q very much excited crowd. AS
they marched up the main street OF
town they created more excitement
than circus paraGe.
Prices were adjusted by the COM
mitee according to relative values OF
animals, and a price placed upon each
animal The freight costs and other
expenses were prorated in accordance
with the prices on animals since the
prices correspondent very well with
the size and weight OF animals. The
average cost, including all expenses,
was $4,000 per head
