FLOWERS FOR
EARLY PLANTING
Sweet Peas, Shirley Peoples
and Candytuft Amo.. g Va
- rieties for Early Bloom
PREPARATION OF THE SOIL
Best Place to Plant Sweet Peas is In
Vegetable Garden-Information Of
Interest to Lovers of Flowers.

(By C. A. Keffer, Division of Exten-
sion, University of Tennessee.)
II sweet peas are not yet planted
they should be sown as soon as posi-
BILE. Buy the orchid-fowering, or Spen-
Ger varieties. The named sorts give
the best results, but mixed seed pro-
duce satisfactory flowers. Prepare the
soil by spading two spades deep, mix
ing good manure all the way down.
Dig trench two spades wide, throw
ing the soil on each side; then spade
a good layer of manure, a full spade
deep in the bottom of the trench. Fill
in one-half the surface soil, mixing
fine manure with it. This will leave
the surface of the trench from four
to six inches below the level of the
garden. Chip the coat of each sweet
pea seed, and sow rather thick, as for
garden peas, in line down the center
of the trench, covering not more than
one-inch. Some gardeners cover the
seed with two inches of we'll rotted
manure AS the peas grow the trench
is gradually filled; trellis is made for
the plants to climb on, of brush or
chicken fencing. BY the time the
plants are ten to twelve inches high
the trench should be filled to the level
of the garden.
1t is best to plant sweet peas in the
vegetable garden, where they can
have thorough cultivation. The
flowers should be picked every day If
large blossoms and a long season Of
bloom are desired.
Shirley Poppies and Candytuft.
The best strains of seed are the
Sunset and Burbank Shirley Poppy
and the Empress Candytuft. All gar
dens that are to produce early flowers
should be dug deep in the fall with
plenty of fine manure forked in, and
left rough until planting time, when
the soil should be made very fine and
smooth. Poppy and Candytuft are

seed should be sown broadcast on the
surface, without covering, any time
from January to the middle of March.
l have had the best results from Jan
uary sowing. The peoples being OF
many shades, from deep red to white,
are best sown in beds by themselves.
The Shirley peoples are the best OF
their family for cutting, but they
should be cut in the early morning be-
fore the dew is off, and placed at
once in water, or they will wilt Carry
vessel of water to the garden and
set the peoples deep in it, and they
will last quite a while. To prolong
the season the flowers should be cut
every day.
Empress candytuft is a white variety
bearing very large clusters. 1t is es'
pecially good for sowing broadcast
among perennials, or as a ground cover
among later blooming plants. Proper
ly grown it covers the soil with a
sheet of white bloom, and it is one OF
the best spring flowers for cutting.

EASY AND PROFITABLE
A Well Bred Boar Selected Out Of a
Litter of Twelve Pigs Worth
Dozen SoWs.

(By R. M. Murphy, Division of Exten-
sion, University of Tennessee.)
The easiest and most profitable way
to get into the hog business is by buy
ing a pure-bred boar to use on good
grade sows. A grade sow that can be-
sold for no more than her value on the
pork market is worth to the pork pro-
Queer as much as a 500 pure-bred
SOW. A pure-bred sow costing less
than $50 as a gilt, will rarely give sat
lsfaction as breeder, for the chances
are that she is out of litter of eight
pigs or less, and consequently can be
expected to produce only small litters.
The producer of pork must have large
filters. Grade sows selected from pro-
life mothers will produce much larger
litters than cheap pure-bred sows.
Their pigs will not have the finish or
show qualities obtained from pure
breds, but if they are mated with first
class bears they will make gains as
satisfactorily, and produce as much
pork, with less than one-half the in
vestment.
A we'll bred boar selected out of 8
litter of twelve pigs is worth more
than a dozen sows. The influence Of
the boar is apparent on every pie
raised, while the SOW influences only
her own litter If thirty sows are
bred to a single boar during one year
and they produce eight pigs each, o.
two hundred and forty in all, the in
fiuence of the boar is thirty times al
great as that of any one of the sows

GLEASON GLEANINGS


DR.. |. ]. Tatum, one OF Glea-
sons popular and skilled physl-
slcians, narrowly missed painful
injuries on last Sunday, when his
auto turned over. The doctor met
a vehicle on a narrow piece of road
in the vicinity Of Ore Spring, and,
as is the custom of all polite auto
mobile drivers, he gave the road
to the horse-drawn vehicle, but
got too near the edge, when his
car toppled over into a ditch
Fortunately, the doctor got out,
but bis car was considerably
damaged, and Bro. Holley drove
out in his car and fetched Dr.
Tatum to town.
The outlook for large yield Of
sweet potatoes FIN this vicinity
is most encouraging. A large
acreage has been set to sweet
potatoes, the cultivation of the
crop }has been carried on with a
vengeance and the vines are
glowing nicely. Several new po-
fatoe houses have recently been
erected, while several more will
be built between now and digging
time. The potato industry is a
leading one in this community,
and our farmers hope to clear
big profits from this years crops

COMMUNITIES MORALS AND
 INDIVIDUALS 5
Bishop Mouzon Addresses Stern Remarks to Church Audience on Subject of Christians Responsibili- ties

Individual responsibility was the sub iect of Bishop Mouzon's sermon last evening at Central church. passing the subject on the letter of St. Paul to the Romans particularly that passage in the 14th chapter and the 12th verse that says: 50 then, each one of us must give an account of himself to Cod From the question of individual responsibility the preacher went to community responsibility as the ex- presSion of the will of the individuals. This opened the way to a strong lee ture on community morals and the ne- cessity for increased vigilance upon the part of the Christian people of the community to see that those things do not obtain which do not make for righteousness. For he said that for every soul lost in any community through those conditions which ought not to be.
 This responsibility upon the Christ ian men especially, he said, was a great one. These are the men of the places of the people who ought to do things that are right in the sight of God because they know what is right. Who ought because they know what ought to be done see that the knowledge of the word of God and the love of God is spread abroad in the land.
 From the Christian man he went to the Christian father-and with a strong lecture on temperance filled with touching anecdote setting out the re- sponsibility he adiured the fathers of the city to make their homes definately religious. To teach in those homes the right living and right thinking neces- Sary to cause the young folks in them to grow into God loving. God fearing men and women.
 Following out the idea of the indi- vidual responsibility to God of the man for his fellow men. he came to that portion of his subject which dealt with the responsibility of the individual to his God for himself
 The provisions that have been made for salvation lay just and jealous God drew especial attention to the propos ton that when the time of accounting was come each one must give an ac- count of himself. Here the speaker dra- matically exclaimed No institution can save you. The fact is you are defin- ately responsible to God-individually responsible. And when you stand there to give that account there is none but you and God in the transaction None other"

cy here issued another denial tonight of the reports of General Obregon s ac- tivities. giving a telegram from Obre- Gon himself, denying that he had in- terfered with the shipment of food to the city. President Wilson indicated that some of the reports about condi- ions in the capital were exaggerated but stated that the fear of riots and outrages and the food famine had brought about serious situation. It is known, too. from reports from the fused transportation facilities for the international relief commission which raised a fund of 250,0O0 pesos with which to bring supplies into the capital to suecor the poor and destitute. It was believed tonight a reply from Carranza would be received tomorrow, but Witl the evacuation of Mexico City | and the return of the Zapatistas, who, | according to official reports, policed the city well when they last were in com
 mand, officials were inclined to believe
 that the crisis would be passed without serious difficulty.
 | The Carranza agency here announced tonight that the following had been re-
 ceived from Obregon in reply to q tele-
 gram asKing information about condi- | tions in Mexico City:
