A Good One.

The latest story on the Ford
machine is man who was
putting a new roof on his house.
He was busy tearing the old
roof off one day when q neigh
Dor came along and asked him
what he was going to do with the
old tin roof. The man said be
expected to throw it away. The
neighbor told him to. send Il
TO the Ford Motor Com
pany as they would pay a good
price forit, sothe owner packed
it up and shipped it to the COM
pany at Detroit. In about ten
days he received a letter from
the company saying they couldn't
imagine what he had hit with
his machine to smash it up like
that, but they could fix 1t up as
good as new for $40.

Quit Your Knocking.

Says an exchange: "Put the
hammer in the locker, hide the
sounding board likewise ; any one
can be a knocker, anyone can
criticise. Cultivate a maner
winning, though it hurts your
face to smile and seems awkward
in beginning, be a booster for
while. Let the blacksmith do
the pounding, that's the way he
draws his pay; you don't get q
cent for bounding saint and sim
ner, night and day. Just for
solid satisfaction drop a kind
word in the slot, and I'll warrant
you get action Oh your effort on
the spot. Kindness every time
beats kicking; mirth is better
than a frown; do not waste your
time picking flaws with brothers
who are down. And it isn't so
distressing if you give a little
boost to the man the fates are
pressing when the chicks come
home to roost.

WASHINGTON NEWS.

The array Of facts published
throughout the entire country,
revealing alleged attempts of
German officials both in Berlin
and in this country to control
the press and public sentiment,
and to obtain writer's and estab-
lish news agencies to spread
German doctrine 90 far as
brought no denial from Am
bassador Won Bernsorff. The
publication did however bring
out the DECLARATION here that the
government will probably take
cognizance Of the revelations. 1t
is said the Department of Justice
has already begun an investiga
tion Of one phase of the activi-
ties of German agents in this
country. How far the invastiga-
tion will go or wether this COVER
ment will take up the matter
officially with Germany is un-
certain. Because the critical
situation that resulted from the
correspondence initiated by the
German submarine warfare and
/ the sinking of the Lusitania, the
administration is not anxious to
to have irrelevant matter injected
into its relations with Germany
at this time. But in the mass
Of changes against German re-
representatives. that have appeared
recently one thing seems to stand
out clearly, that is ground for
complaint against the extra
diplomatic activities of the
Kaiser's representatives in THE
country,
With keen interest admin
| stration officials are waiting the
replies to the American ap-
peal for the establishment of
peace in Mexico, transmitted to
the Mexican leaders last Satur-
day. The question in the minds
of the officials is the effect
which the appeal is to have on
the government established by Gen
Carranza. Agents of the Oar
rama government in Washingt on
are emphatic in their statement
that effect will be to strengthen
the army of Carranza, and that
eventually the United States
and other American republic will
have to recognize the constititu
tional government established by

BANKERS PLAN
LOANS TO FARMERS.
Movement Started in Hamil.
ton County to Better Farm
ing Condition.

Folling up suggestion made
by officials of the Nashville,
Chattanooga & st. Louis Railway
at a conference w2th several
bankers in Chattanooga recently,
| the Clearing House banks OF
that city have pledged them
selves to be loaned on long time
to deserving and energetic far
mers in that territory, this fund
to be used in developing the
agricultural resources of that
section.
Mr.. Thomas r. Preston, as
representative of the Chatta-
pooga Clearing House banks, has
explained in general way the
purposes of the fund and the
motives which actuated the
bankers in supplying it. Briefly,
the object In view was to per-
nit Young and capable farmers
to get q start in life on the farms
and by encouraging them in
scientific methods and the
introduction of better live stock,
to render a valuable aid to the
farmers themselves and help to
build up the land which is cap
able of splendid results of the
plan, and the methods to be
followed in passing upon the APP
plicants for loans are to be work
ed out by representatives of the
banks and a committee of five
farmers from the membership of
the Farmers! Cooperative I'M
ion of Hamilton county.
The endorsement of the idea
by the Nashville, Chattanooga d
st. Louis Railway, through John
Howe Peyton, is due to the great
interest which this road has TAX
en- in the development of the
agricultural resources along its
lines, and that the movement
will be far reaching in its effect
upon the development of
the farming int ere t s
has been demonstrated by
the great interest created
throughout the farming com
munities in this territory. In
q general way the idea is to loan
various sums to farmers
who have character and the
ability to make good. This
money will be loaned for the pur-
chase of better live stock, i'm
proved farming machinery, ETC.,
and at rate of interest which
the banks are now loaning money
to other business enterprises. 1t

PRESENT AND FUTURE
OF COAL MINING.

AS the world progresses new
conditions arise in every trade and
calling. The successful ones of the
race are those who are quickest to
realize and adapt themselves to the
new aud ever changing conditions.
With the hydro electric current,
available twentyfour hours in the
day. In most any part Of the country,
the stationary engines that have
heretofore consumed great per-
centage of the soft or steam coal,
are passing out of existence. Gas,
gasolin- and electricity have dis
placed the steam engine in nearly
all OF the thousands Of small indus
tries. Cooking, lighting and even
heating of rooms are gradually
adopting the electric way. The
large steam plants, that have hereto,
fore created the electric current in
our cities, consuming annually
thousands of tons of Our coal, are
idle now. Even the ice factories
are by degrees converting their
plants to the new and much more
economical electric way of making
ice.
The CONSUMPTION of our soft
coal is already practically limited
to the railroads, smelter industries
and lirnekilns, with fair prospects
that the leading consumer, the
railroads will in the not far distance
future substitute electricity for
steam for it's motive power.
Under these conditions the Goa
output in the soft coal mines viii
continue very limited, with thous
ands of coalminers will have to look
for employment in other trades.
The miners of some of our ives
tern States have already taken Their
cue of the new order of things
Knowing that they can no longer
depend on mining for living they
have begun farming and when no
too busy with their farms they dig
coal as a side line, generally they
do their digging after their crop
