WILL BENEFIT
WHOLE STATE.

The efforts of the Nashville, Chatta-
nooga q st. Louis Railway to i'm
prove the agricultural and live stock
interests of the counties along its line
will, in the epd, be Of benefit to the
whole state. That the work of the
road along these lines Ia worthy and
commendable, the following express
sions will show.
Commissioner of Agriculture. Mr..
FL. Knox Bryson, is speaking Of the
work says: ~ think any county in
the state fortunate enough to be loca-
ted on the line of the N. q G. ia to be
congratulated. The policy Of the road
in its work of advancing the interests
of the farmers and the development
of the live stock interests has done q
great deal. toward breaking down the
prejudice that formerly existed against
railroads -
Mr.. L. M. Rhodes, President Of the
Tennessee Farmers Union, In lefer-
ring to the work being done by the
road said: "The Nashville, Chatta-
nooga & st. Louis Railway, during
the short time that Mr.. John Howe
Peyton has been at its head, has done
more for the advancement of the agri-
cultural interests of this territory than
any other, or all other railroads in
this section in twenty five years"
The policy of the road in this re-
spect is to advance its own interests
by helping the farmers Demonstra-
tion farms have been established at
several points, and still others are be-
ing planned; a foundation herd of
Short Horn cattle has been secured for
the intrOductiOn of this hreed nm the
farms along its line; lime clubs have
been organized for the encouragement
of the farmers in the use of ground
lime rock on "sour" land and the in
crease of alfalfa acreage in the state;
Percheron stud has been established
at Jackson, Tenn in connection with
the University of Tennessee for the
benefit of those farmers who want
better breed of horses; cooperative
creameries have been established and
recently the road has completed dem
onstration and lecture car for the use
of its Industrial department, and this
car will make tour ovei the system
giving lectures and demonstrations at
various points. Farm scenes along the
line are shown by stereopticon and la
ter motion pictures of farm opera
tious will be shown.
That these efforts are appreciated by
the farmers over the country Is attest
ed by the splendid crowds which have
attended these lectures wherever the
demonstration and lecture car has
been. The work has the hearty CO.
operation of the University of Tennes-
see and several of the University's ex-
perts have accompanied the car,

The Smaller Things.

We NAV not own a herO's crown,
Our Golfers may be scant of gold,
And we may never know renown,
Or clasp the hand success may hold.
But though these treasures be denied,
With all the joy their presence brings,
Dear Lord, we will be satisfied
To take Thy gifts of smaller things.
A helping hand to him who feels
A burden that is hard to bear,
A willing heart that gladly steals
Some portion of another's care;
That art of making gracefully
Some sacrifice; nor count the gain
Of that which in attaining we
Have caused another person pain.
To make little child rejoice,
To bring a smile to sorrows face,
Restore the laughter to some voice
Or put broken heart in place.
So lay the tinsel crown aside;
We do not ask the fame it brings,
For we, dear Lord, are satisfied
To take Thy gifts of smaller things.
