me not long ago that he never knew
what to buy when he went to market,
for" he said, when lima beans are
in season, the women want peas, and
when peas are in season, the women
want lima BEANS" In other words,
having no knowledge of the market,
we try to make this market fit our
daily menus rather than make our

buying, economy in the home, means
a full knowledge of the seasons of
production in order to buy those

More liberal salaries for teachers
would accrue if all public officials
were put on a fixed salary basis, as

of the East Tennessee Normal School
and President Of the Southern Con-
ference for Education and Industry
in an address featuring Fridays ses-

ing abolition of the fee system in
Tennessee, President Gilbreath stated
that the fees received by county trus-

intendents. A State school architect
to help plan the $500,000 worth of
schools built in Tennessee annually,

PHYSICAL CULTURE FOR
HOGS is KANSAS IDEA

Topeka, April 25.-Physical cul-
ture for hogs with regulated diet
from pigs to pork is what accounts
for the success of W. J. Russell, far
mer living near Winfield, who last
week received a record breaking price
for some Jersey Red hogs. H.T.Trice,
a neighbor is visiting in Topeka.
"RusselPs hogs are trained" said
Trice. Gwen the sucking pigs are
trained. Russells boys watch them
and even regulate their diet at the
maternal fOunt. There are no warm
meals at all hours for Russells pig
gies. They and their mothers are
trained. The piggies come to meals at
the snap of the fingers of one of Rus
sells boys. When they have nursed
sufficiently he snaps his fingers again
and the mother hog rolls into a posi-
ton which closes the restaurant, and
the piggies scamper away to await
the next call for lunch.
''The big hogs are given regular ex-
'ercise. The gates to the pen are open
ed and the hogs driven over a pre-

do in our own generation that which
reason commands and conscience die
tates, that is, unless we alter our con-
stitution.
The Issue
The issue is simply this: Shall we
take no part in the modern struggle
for efficiency and social justice, and
continue to be restrained by the will
of a generation that knew US not; or
shall we alter our political constitu-
tions in consonance with the grow
ing intelligence of mankind? Shall
we continue grazing around the old
tether stakes, or shall we journey
forward?

countlans are, as a rule shy on the
last two of these requirements. Men
who expect to turn their cattle loose
and handle them as stocker cattle do
not need very many pure bred cattle
Of any kind, all they need is a cheap
bull. A calf well cared for is worth
twice as much as one poorly kept,
and as soon as men find this out,
they are ready to handle pure bred
cattle. 1t takes feed to make good cat
tie, even Angus cattle can't live on
wind and waterIf you feed them they
will return you profits; if you don't
feed and care for them you have
wasted money. The young calves
should be kept growing rapidly; they
should be fed grain in connection
with their mothers milk. Better cat
tie means better farming-the grow
ing of more clover for pasure and hay
alfalfa, corn, soy beans, COW peas,
and the like.
Everyone seems well pleased with
the selections made and prices paid
by the committee. 1t was very for
tunate that the services of these
three men could be secured. All
those receiving cattle join in thank
ing the committee, especially DR..
G. D. Lowe for their time and efforts

Nearly $1,000 Worth of Fine
Angus Cattle are Purchased

Angus enthusiasm is running high
er than ever in Blount county, due
to the recent importation of two car
loads of black cattle, consisting in
all forty-two head. These cattle
were bought comparatively by the
farmers.
For several years the Angus breed
has been growing in popularity un-
til it seems likely that the county
will be a black spot on the map, at
least as far as cattle are concerned.
On March 21, 1916, due to consider
able interest and inquiry for Angus
cattle by a numberof men, meeting
was called and held at Maryville
which resulted in a temporary organ
ization of the Blount County Aber-
deem Angus Breeders Association.
At this meeting it was decided that
the most practical way to buy cattle
would be to select and send a COM
mittee of buyers to buy cattle for all
prepared to buy. A buying committee
composed of John Hitch, j. M. Frow,
and DR.. C. D. Lowe of the Extension
Department of the University of
Tennessee were selected and instruc-
ted to go buy the cattle. Mr.. S. N.
Yearout made the trip with the COM
mitee. The cattle were bought on
orders made out by those wanting cat
tie, stating number, kind, price limi-
tations, etc.
The committee following DR.. Lows
suggestion, that several of the best
herds of Angus cattle, and some
which could be bought, were located
in the North West corner of Missouri
and the South West Corner of Iowa,
made the trip to this section, where
all the cattle were bought. The herd
of C. d. & f. F. Caldwell at Burling-
ton Jet, Mo-, was first visited. This
is the second best herd in the United
States at the present time. The Cald-
we'll herd is famous as a show and
breeding herd. Messrs Hitch, Frow
and Yearout were so we'll pleased
with Caldwell's cattle that they
bought all their cattle from him aC
long prices. These men made good Sc
lections both from the standpoint of
breeding and individuality. They
secured cattle which are as we'll bred
as any in the United States, being
sired by such noted bulls as Evreux
of Harviestown, Black Cap, Star,
Black Cap Bertram; these bulls have
enviable showyard records and are
valued at from five to ten thousand
each.
The other cattle were secured from
herds and are largely of
Caldwell's breeding.
These cattle arrived at Maryville,
April 18, after being on the road for
five days. Most of them were bought
in ordinary or field condition and
after the long journey looked rather
'ough and gaunt. But everything con-
'idered they are by far the best An
gus cattle which have been brought
into the county. They are we'll bred
md show lots of breed type and char
lcter. Most of the cattle brought in
have been rather plain in
breeding and individuality. The cattle
we're laid down at Maryville for
S10.57 per head.
There is no reason why we can't
'ase good cattle here with the foun-
lation stock and the start we have. 1t
axes three things to make a success
It breeding stock. Q). Foundation
Stock. (2). Attention. (3). Feed.

the time in which the distance should
be made. After the hogs have been
driven over this course a few times
they know just what is expected of
them and all that is necessary is to
open the gate, and they rush out and
cover the course and return to their
pens"
