The People May Lose His Services
Unless They Get Busy.
Since the article in reference to
failure OF Terrell county to pay its
part of the salary of Farm Demon
stration Agent Kent appeared in last
weeks News very little has been done
towards raising the necessary sub
scription list, and it is beginning to
appear that there are great many
people who do not care if they do
lose the services of the demonstra-
tor or do not believe the federal gov
eminent will remove him unless Ter
reIl county's share of the salary is
paid The demonstration has done
great work in Terrell county towards
arousing the interest of the farmers
in better farming and better and
more stock raising, and it would be
a calamity for our people to lose
his services now. But if we want to
keep him we must pay our share OF
the cost, and some one should get
busy towards raising the necessary
funds among the people benefited,
and that means everybody, whether
he is a farmer or not. We need Mr..
Kent and should keep him.

SILOS and DIPPING VAHS
FARMERS GETTING READY TO
MAKE CATTLE RAISING PAY.
Two Have just Completed Concrete
SiIOs and Dipping Watts, and 9th

SilOs and Dipping Watts, and 9th
ers Will Erect Them Soon.
Cattle raising in Terrell county
has been given serious thought by a
number of our leading citizens, who
have determined to put this industry
on a profitable basis, and to this end
they have devoted considerable study
on the subject.
To make cattle raising profitable
it is agreed that there are several
important things necessary. Past
ures must be provided, silos for win
ter feeding must be built, and dip
ping watts must be had to eradicate
the fatal cattle tick, besides the fact
that improved breeds must be intro
duced. Quite number of blooded
cattle have been shipped into the
county within the past year, and there
will be more TO follow.
Mr.. j. D. Weaver has just complet-
ed a one hundred ton concrete silo,
and Mr.. W. J. Mathis has a 90-ton
silo in course of construction These
will be followed by silos on the farms
of Messrs H. A. Petty, j. r. Mercer
and others. Mr. w. j. Mathis has
modern dipping vat on his farm and
Mr.. j. w. Tilley of Parrot is build
ing one. 1t is said that Messrs. j. r.
Mercer, H. A. Petty and several 9TH
ers will soon begin building them.
This year Terrell county will pro-
duce the greatest crop of corn, oats,
wheat, hay, pork and other feedstuff
ever known before in her history and
the outlook is promising for this
county to soon become entirely self
sustaining, and not dependent upon
the outside world for what it needs
to feed it's people and its stock.
This will be an era of unbounded
prosperity for the great old county
Of Terrell.

FLEECY STAPLE

There Have Been 176 Bales Received
Up to Date. 1t Is a Wait
ING Market


Up to the time of going to press
there had been received 176 bales
of new cotton received at the Daw-
son warehouses. The market is UNI
steady, and the prices quoted are as
follows Good mlddling 8 " cents,
fully good middling SA cents, and
middling cents. 1t might be called
a waiting market with both the bulls
and the bears claiming an advantage.
The bulls claim that the weather and
crop conditions and the pending
break of the Dardanelles will mean
a bullish market, while the bears
claim that England declaring cotton
as contraband of war will have ten
dency to depress the market.
Cotton at cents seems to be re-
garded in many quarters as mighty
good buy on the assumption that a
rising market isn't very far ahead.

ORIGIN OF BALDWIN APPLE


An appropriate memorial TO Loan

with the Baldwin apple, was provided
recently by Mrs. Nellie NJ Baldwin
Farmer OF Pittsburgh. She purchas-
ed a farm of IFS acres at Hampton

win trees. The apple certainly is
worthy OF such "A mark of recognition,
and any one who owns an available
piece OF land might serve himself ana
the community well 10y following the
example set by Mrs. Farmer
The history of the discoverer OF the
Baldwin apple related by Mrs Farm
er is interesting. Loammi Baldwin,
years before the revolution. cut scions
from a wild apple tree near Winning
ton, Mass, and i'm five years surprised
his neighbors with crop OF red APP
Piles OF remarkable flavor. Ills name
was given to the apple by common
consent. and when the original tree
died the site was marked by monu-
ment. Since I.aommi Baldwin found
the wild apple tree that bears his
name scores of different varieties OF
apples have been produced. But the
Baldwin more than holds its ground
among people who judge fruit by IT'S
flavor rather than by size.
