Amount Paid by Aluminium
Go. for Southern's Route
Change at Ovoca

One million dollars, and a pos
sibility of the total amount being
one and one half millions of
dollars, is the amount to be paid
by the Aluminium company of
America, to the Southern railway
in the adjustment of the right-of-
way tangle which has delayed
work in the gap Of the mountain
at Ovoca, for several months.
The compromise agreement be-
tween the two companies was
reached only few days ago. By
it, the Southern railway is to
change the course of its line,
placing it higher on the mountain,
so that back water from the i'm
mense dams to be constructed by
the Aluminium Company of
America, will not flood the tracks.
Seven dams, by whose power
thousands of horse power of
electric current will be generated,
are to be constructed. This will
supply current to the large plant
OF the company in Maryville,
and power may be conveyed
to other parts Of the state, or
farther.
The Aluminium Company of
America has purchased over 600
acres of land in Maryville on
which it has already erected
several buildings, and on which
Iit viii erect many more. Work
is now being done on new build
ing, and these already on the
ground are only beginning to
the city of buildings which the
company proposes to erect. The
expenditure of money to be made
by the company in the construc-
tion of the plant and the dams,
will run way up into the millions.
The settlement of the right of
way dispute may mean the ex-
tension of the Southern railway
on through the mountains to the
coast. If connections could be
made and a trunk line of the
Southern established through
Maryville, it will mean much to
the town. Maryville's oppor-
tunities have never been brighter,
and to keep abreast of the good
times that are going to grow
upon US, we ought to put in a
water plant, so when these times
shall ha, arrived, we will have
the things that will enable us to
be a metropolitan city.

and one-half gallons of milk each
at a milking. The record milk
,giver on the farm is not one of
the registered Jerseys but a
thoroughbred which gives ten
quarts at a milking.
Mr.. Cooper has planned to ship
cream to Knoxyill, delivering
his. product principally to the
state university. However, that
institution is overstocked with
milk just now, and it is being
churned. He uses a quadrangle
lar churn. The six cows produce
six large golden pounds of butter
daily, and believe US, tits some
butter! But, after watching the
Jerseys MUNICH the sweet alfalfa,
is a good milk producer,
eat the cotton seed meal and other
feeds, it is not surprising that
the butter is superfne.
Young Mr.. Cooper believes
that a workman should be paid
according as he is able to turn
out a commodity or get results.
He also believes this principle
is applicable in the feeding
of milk and butter making cows.
He feeds the cows in proportion
to the amount of milk given.
The Jersey which gives three
gallons at a milking is most
favored when feeding times
comes, and there is no economy
when her trough is filled.

In Three Years

w. A. Logan, a native Blount

Martel, in Loudon county, was
the guest of his brotherin-laW
S. L. Jones, and other relatives
here the first Of the week. After
leaving Blount county, Mr.. Logan
removed to Monroe county, but
for the past three years he has
made his home in Loudon county,
owning a farm Of 220 acres there.
This is a part of the Lenoir
homestead. The land cost Mr..
Logan little over $13, 900, and
only a few days ago he refused
$22, 900 cash for it. He says he.
lives in the best country in the
world, and does not want to sell
his farm at any price.
Mr.. Logan is a constant reader
Of The Times, and spoke favor
ably of the many improvements
The Times has recently made.
It's more like a newspaper, he
said, and contains more valuable
information than formerly.
Il can afford to do without
some papers but cannot afford
to do without The Times, he.
said as he paid his subscription q
year and half in advance, and
also paid an advanced subscrip
ton for friend to whom he

Mr.. Logan has many friends

learn of his success, and who.
hope he will come back to his
native county which is really

have just completed a siIo which
has a depth of nine feet under
ground and extends about eigh-
teen feet into the air. This silo
will hold enough ensilage to feed
nine head of cattle six months.
One-half acre patch on the farm
farm has produced three crops
Of alfalfa, making nine loads,
this smlmer.
Fern Cooper is a novice in the
dairy business, so far as practi-
cal experience is concerned. But
to visit his dairy barn one can
observe at once that he has stud
led the dairying business from
every angle, and while his herd
of milk cows now comprises only
six, he has planned to double this
number soon and to inccease it
more at a later date.
On the south side of the barn :
and this is indicative of the fact
that he has thought out the best
place for cows to winter, away
from the chilly north winds he
has constructed a shed for the
cows. In it are twelve stalls
withpatented stanchions in which
the cows can feed and turn their
heads and fight flies wi4h as much
freedom as if they.awere not fast
ened. The floor Of the shed is
concrete, and in the center of it
is gutter in which the refuse is
carried out into field where it
enriches the soil. " The floor is
secured every morning and no
kind Of filth is allowed to ac-
cumulate thereon. .
The floor is now secured with
water pumped from the barn
cistern, at which the cattle drink
but it is the plan of Nfr. Cooper
to run the water system from the
house well to the barn, so that
running water can be had there
at all times of the day. They
will install a motor or gasoline
engine to pump the water when
this increase supply is needed for
watering their stock.
In the herd Of Mr.. Cooper are
three registered Jerseys, which
were taken from the herd of Mr..
Gettys, at Athens. These are
among the finest cattle in the
state, and have a pedigree which
any COW might envy-if a COW
was an envious being. Besides
these, he has three other Jer4
seys which are thoroughbred but
which are not registered, The
registered cows have calved only
one time and win calve again
late in the fall or early winter. !,
They are now giving about one
