The latest German communication
says a new attempt of the French and
British a large scale to break
through the German line between the
Ancre and the Somme failed complete

tillery and infantry reinforced with
fresh reserves in the effort to achieve
his object" says the statement The

their positions unshaken after heavy
fighting.
The main weight of the numerous
attacks was directed against the front
from Courcelette to St Pierre Eaast

veloped repeatedly in our lines with

BUTTING AGAINST FACTS

DR.. E. E. Pratt, chief of the bureau
of foreign and domestic commerce, in
an address before the merican Manu-
facturers Export association, among
other things, said:
"The first false premise is that the
products OF the nation can be export
ed before the domestic needs are sat
isfied.'
Just now, when wheat and flour are
seeking the empyrean blue, and when
domestic wants are not satisfied, and
when the cost of living is mounting
skyward, our wheat and flour contin-
lie to be exported III an enormous
quantity. We have not filled the
needs of domestic consumption, but
we are sending wheat and flour
abroad on a larg escale. Europe's
demand is fixing the price which
American consumers Of wheat and
flour must pay.
Dr.. Pratt apparently needs to make
another study Of economic conditions.
He is butting against facts as old as
is the Observation-Disclosures Record.

Kingsport Steam Laundry Co., which
has purchased property for the loca-
tion of a big laundry plant, and a
packing house to deal in meat prod
ucts. Kingsport is start unded by an
excellent cattle-gIowing country,
which would be able to furnish stock
for a very considerable packing bust
ness. Then, too, the tannery already
in operation would furnish a market
for the hides, while the territory cas-
lily reached by means of the railroad

There is much talk of a railroad

Importance of securing a share of the
business of KingsLV4 and know that
it can be pcrm&.-.llly held only by
furnishing proper transportation ia
,~ilities, have been discussing the mat
ter of building such a road, to be
equipped with either steam or cleo
tricity.
Kingsport is situated in a broad
valley, trimmed about by low-lying
hills that furnish most beautiful sites
for homes, and these hills have be-
come the most popular residence por-
lion. The syle of architecture adopt
ed by most of the home builders is
suited to the contour of the ground,
and in consequence there are picture
sque and attractive groups of houses
overlooking the business and manu-
'acturing section that lies on the flat,
Altogether it promises to make a
beautiful city. as well as a busy and
progressive one.

If the South should accept The sug-
gestion of taking an entire floor at

the results would be worth untold mil
lions to this section. While the rail-
roads should lead in this work, all
other big corporations engaged in
manufacturing enterprises or kindred
work should be as aggressively active
in the campaign as the railroads. The
iron and steel concerns of the South
should make such an exhibit of their
resources and products as has ever
been presented anywhere. The by
product coke ovens of this section
should be adequately represented, and
their output in all its varied forms
exhibited. The potentialities of lum-
Der for paper making and kindred in

Can Be Done on Any Tennessee
Land Where Farm and Farmer Are
Properly Equipped for Dairy Work.
by G. 0. Meltzer, University of Ten

tBy G. 0. Meltzer, University of Ten
nessee, KnoXvilla.)
Eight years ago a Cumberland Noun
tain farmer was debating with himself
The future of the dairy cattle business
for him and his section. 1t was a ques-
ton in his mind whether or not a liv-
ing could be made on the poor land
about him. Today he does not ques.
ton for he is securing $1,000 each year
Tor a bank account, besides making his
farm better and his living better.
While testing his herd the other day
| noticed the wonderful milking cows
and heifers he has. He told me that
several years ago he was persuaded
TO suy a superior dairy bull whose
lam was a pure-bred cow of high milk
ing quality, and whose sire was bred
in the butter line for many years. Sew
aral years age his s%tanchions were
Alled with cows milking twenty pounds
)f pure milk. Today the offspring from
these cows sired by this bull are each
milking from thirty to fifty pounds OF
) per cent milk each day.
This pure-bred dairy bull is dead. but
he has left behind heifers and cows
which are bringing prosperity.
To me, this one farm answers all
questions as to the value of pure-bred
sires in dairy herds.

amount to use will vary according to
market requirements, usually about
one ounce to the pound of butter. Use
just the amount of salt your customers
desire. Sprinkle the salt evenly over
the butter and work it down to a solid
mass with as little working as DOS
sible. If time will permit, let the but,
ter stand for several minutes to give
the salt time to dissolve, and rework.
Never touch the butter with your
hands. This is not sanitary and the
heat destroys the grain Of the butter.
Always mould the butter into brick
shaped prints. This makes a more at
tractive package, the paper can be
wrapped around it nicely, and it packs
we'll for shipment. Use a good grade
of parchment butter paper, and if the
butter is to be shipped very far, put
each poundgin a small paste-board car
ton, Dr. box.
1t is always advisable to sell direct
to the customer where this method Of
marketing is practicable. Hotels, res
taurants, and private families usually
afford the best markets for good dairy
or farm butter. For farmers living N
remote country districts, parcel post
offers a good method of marketing but

The churn should be stopped when
the butter granules are the size Of

stage the buttermilk can be washed
out and the salt mixed uniformly
throughout the butter.
Remove the butter to the worker
with a wooden paddle, or ladle, while
it is still in the granular condition.
The small "V" shaped lever worker is
one of the best types on the market.
If only a very small quantity of butter
is made at a time, it may be worked
in an old fashioned butter bowl by
means of a ladle, but this is very diff
cult and tiresome.
AS soon as the butter has been re-
moved to the worker, add the salt. The

A bad spell of weather breaches the
necessity for good roads more con-
vincingly than any orator or writer
can do. One feels the need. From
every side comes the cry: "Our roads
are terrible" Of course they are, for
this last flood has wrought havoc. But
there is just one thing that should be
noted: There are places in the roads,
many of them, that stood the test,
even during the recent floods. On al
most every road one finds long sec
tions that are now good and that have
been but little affected by the rains.
1t is where the Sand-clay road has
been properly built. There are such
sections between Union and Buffalo,
and, in lact, there are such sections
to be found in many stretches of the
roads of the county. This is a lesson
that will prove of real value to us for
future effort.

Editor The Union Times:
Will you please allow me a little
space in your columns to add to the
last of Union county damage to
bridges.
We have had three small bridges
between Mr.. w. N. Brooks home and
Beatty bridge, which has been re-
placed here.
Mr.. w. N. had on his farm about a
thousand or twelve hundred dollar
damage.
Mr.. Jack Wix had his farm almost
totally destroyed, only leaving about
two acres of cotton.
Mr.. l.. d. Watkins lost his entire
corn. crop and some of his cotton was
badly damaged and three other farms
being damaged badly.
On Sunday evening Messrs. J. d.
Brock, j. G. and B. f. Wix and l.. ID.
Watkins took boat ride across
Tiger river at its highest point, get

about two miles.

DYNAMITES
A SLUGGISH LIVER
Crashes Into Sour Bile, Making You
Sick and You Lose Days
Work.

Calomel salivatcs It's mercury.
Calomel acts like dynamite on a slug
gish liver. When calomel comes into
cntact with sour bile it crashes into it,
causing cramping and nausea.
If you feel bilious, headachy, consti-
pated and all knocked out, just go to
your druggist and get so cent bottle
of Dodson's Liver Tone, which is a
harmless vegetable substitute for dan
gerous calomel. Take a spoonful ano
if it doesn't start your liver and
straighten you up better and quicker
than nasty calomel and without max
ing you sick, you just go back and get
your money.
If you take calomel today you'll be
sick and nauseated tomorrow; besides,
it may salivate you, while if you take
Dodson's Liver Tone you will wake up
feeling great, full of ambition and
ready for work or play. It's harm
less, pleasant and safe to give to chill
dren; they like 1t.
