premises,

Two Fayette county veterans Of the
Civil War have gone to Richmond this
week to the annual meeting of the clan,
and their going brings to mind that in
all Fayette county there is not one or
gsnization, neither any monument, to
the memory of these brave old heroes
and the noble sacrifices they made for
the cause they thought was right. the
cause they loved. Other towns and
counties have local biyouacs, the sons
of veterans are organized, or the
daughters, OF there is a suitable monu-
ment at some public place to tell
posterity that sons of the county were
faithful to the South in those dark days,
or may be all these work together to
tell the younger generation that their
fathers and grsndfathers fought fol
principles they cherished. In Fayette
county not one of these il to be founC
to point the young men and young
women of today to the duty these mer
did SO well. We should be ashamed
that such is the case.

Falcon has discussed many times.
There could be no more important step
taken by this county or any other than
the proposed friendly exhibition of farm
products such as Prof. Seay suggests.
The corn club boys have their exhibit
tion every year and he informs US this
year the poultry clubs and canning clubs
will join in, thus making very formid-
able gathering of the younger people
who are trying to advance and make
better farmers and better farmers
wives. Now if the farmers, themselves,
will take up the matter and prepare for
exhibit some of their best crops much
good will come to them and thru them
to the business men Of the county.
No one who has watched the progress
of the corn clubs will deny that these
clubs have done as much good to older
farmers as to the boys actually men,
bers of said clubs. Fathers of these
club members have seen the work of
their sons succeed and have taken the
same methods of working their corn
crops and are making barrels of corn
where they formerly. made bushels.
AS for the business men furnishing
prizes for such exhibition, The Falcon
wishes to say that Somerville business
men have never failed to respond
literally to such enterprises. We have
seen them called on for many things
not so meritorious as this and in every
case they have done their full duty,
and we believe that they will, in this
case, give sufficient to offer prize for
every purpose desired. We will join
hands with Prof. Sesy and do every
thing We can for the success of such
an exhibition.

FERTILITY OF OUR LAND AND
LIVE STOCK HAVE SUFFERED
(By r. N. Murphy, Division Of Exten-
sion. University OF Tennessee.

(By r. NJ. Murphy, Division Of Exten-
sion, University of Tennsssee)
Not only has the fertility OF our
farming land suffered by our failure
to get good stands OF clover for the
past few years, but our live stock has
also suffered because of lack OF feed
stuffs sufficiently rich in protein to
supply their requirement OF muscle
making material. We have tried to,
In 9 measure, make up for our loss by
using cowpeas and soy beans, and
while they are now very generally
grown and as hay furnishes a salts
factory substitute for clover, still on
many farms in the state the work
stock are forced to subsist, and to do
their daily work, on ration composed
OF corn, timothy, or of a mixture OF
the other grass hays, millet, corn fod-
der, or sorghum, all of which are
good feeds in their proper places, but
which are all markedly low in protein
content.
Such q ration may be best i'm
proved by the use OF q small quantity
Of cottonssed meal. Cottonseed meal
Is our cheapest commercial source OF
protein. since it contains from IS to
Al pounds OF protein in each one hun.
drsd pounds of meal, or practically
three times as much as wheat bran
contains. 1t is very rich and for this
reason must be fed only In limited
quantities. Ordinarily a 1000 pound
horse or mule should not be fed more
than two pounds per day, but this
amount may be fed continuously with.
out any danger of evil effects The
proportion of cottonseed meal to corn
in the ration should not exceed one
pound OF cottonseed meal to Ave
pounds of corn. One pound OF cotton.
seed meal when used in this way will
save two pounds Of corn, and since
corn is worth practically as much
pound for pound as cottonseed meal,
the use of two pounds of cottonseed
meal in the ration means the saving
OF four pounds of corn, or q ration
three cents cheaper per day, or a saw.
ing of ten dollars per year, and in
addition the work stock will be kept
up In much better condition and look
better.

Last year Somerville had about this
time cleanup day which was produc-
tive of much good. She needs the
same kind of performance again this
year. Not that this little city is in
worse condition than others of her kind,
for she is not. In fact there is not as
much need for cleanup day this year
rs there was last, but there is need
this year. Last year ncoks and corners
which had not been cleared of trash and
litter for years were cleared and made
clean and sanitary, and some of these
places have not been touched since
cleanup day was over except to
throw all kinds Of waste into them.
Weeds are rank in every part of town
because of recent rains and warm grow
ing weather. Many citizens what for
the city to cut these weeds, the city has
no funds for such purpose. and the re-
suit is that the weeds are allowed to
grow and flourish on the most Travelled
and best streets of the city, The city
authorities are doing we'll with the funds
at their command. They have made
many permanent Improvements, they
have built several miles of concrete
walks and are now laying gravel on
some of the streets which most need it.
This work will be carried as far as the
city's money will permit and it is a
splendid way for the city authorities to
spend it. The citizens and property
owners could lend wonderful help to the
making more slightly the streets of the
town and more heslthful every sur
rounding if they would cut their weeds
and clear away the trash from their
premises,

We Agree Most Cordially.
To TIE FALcoN:-

To The FALcoN;-
All of us know that the only possible
prospect for future wealth in our coun-
ty lies in agricultural development.
This is strictly farming county and
no one can serve it better than by try
ing to arouse an interest in and an en-.
thusiasm for good farming.
Much has been done within the last
few years to improve agricultural con-
ditions. In some communities the i'm
provement in workstock, agricultural
implements, and methods of farming
has been remarkable. Would it not
be another forward step to have a day
some time this fall for the exhibition
of various kinds of agricultural and
domestic products in Somerville and
could not the business men of our CAPT
tai city be depended upon to offer prizes
enough to stir up general interest?
This thing has been done in other coun-
ties with marked success. We have
as good business men and as good far
mers as other counties. We can sue
coed too.
The first attempt might not be any
thing great. Very probably it would
not. Still it would be beginning and
would have solid results.
Nothing that could be done would do
more to develop pleasant relations be-
tween the merchants and farmers, and
to arouse an interest in the agricultural
life of the county.
The cost would not be great and
leaving out of consideration the benefit
such thing would be to the county at
large each contributor would receive
handsome return in actual dollars and
cents.
We had fine show last fall from the
Corn Club boys. We hope to have pigs
and chickens this fall in addition to the
corn. Why not all pull together and
invite farmers young and old to COM
pete>in friendly rivalry and show to
them that we realize that they are the
foundation of all prosperity and that
we appreciate their good works.
