WHY NOT IMPROVE
QUALITY OF FEEDERSl
Use of Better Beef Bulls VIII Accom-
plish This for Tennessee Farm
ers and Save Them Money

Farmers who have grazed cattle
during the past summer with the ex-
pectation of selling them to the Gus
tomary trade for winters feeding re-
port a serious dulness in the demands
of this market.
With fat cattle selling around II
cents and hogs even higher on the
Chicago market, this condition of af-
fairs seems unnatural.
Cattle feeders of Virginia and Ten
nessee are reported to have pretty
generally lest money on their feeding
operations during the past few sea-
sons. 1t is said that this has been
due to the narrow margin upon which
they have operated. They have prob
ably decided to buy their feeders at
a lower price or forego feeding alto
gether.
Since the product of the majority
of Tennessee farmers will be and
should be feeder" cattle rather than
finished cattle, it behooves us to
study the present situation.
1t is certain that the keener the
competition for the purchase of our
stuff, the better will be the price real
lied. The problem is how to get this
competition.
Such is only surely possible through
raising the quality of our product.
This can easily be done by the on
slant and general use of better and
better bulls.
When our feeder steers are of such
standard as to attract the attention
of the corn belt farmer we can then
feel reasonably sure that our cattle
business is on a firm foundation.-C.

SOUTHERN RAILWAY
ABOLISHES GRADE CROSSINGS

Washington, Oct. 17.-Ninety-three
grade crossings o fthe Southern rail-
ways Observation-Disclosures line have
been eliminated in connection with
double track work between Orange,
Va. and Central, s. C.
Thirty-eight were Implanted by ov-
erhead bridges, SO by undepasses, and
% were removed by changes in the
route of public roads.
In all construction work the fixed
policy of the Southern is to separate
important highway crossings where
ever practicable. This policy means
large additional expense which is un-
dertaken as a permanent investment
for safety.
The Southern has also co-operated
with local authorities in the elimina-
ton of many dangerous crossings on
other of its lines, devoting to this
work as much as its resources and
other obligations would permit.

TWO NEGROES LYNCHED BY
PADUCAH MOB, JAIL FORCED

Paducah, Ky, Oct. 1.-two ne
groes were lynched by a mob here
today and their bodies burned. One
was charged with attacking a white
woman and the other was accused Of
voicing APPROVAL of his action.
One vas taken from the county Jail
and the other was seized on the
streets. Followed by several thous-
and persons, the negroes were taken
to the home of the woman, two miles
away. While one of them was pre-
scented to her for identification, the
other was taken to a tree, a rope was
thrown over a limb, his neck encir-
cled in a moose and an automobile
hitched to the other end. AS soon as
Tie other negro hal been identified
~ tn the process; was re-
peatPd. The bodies later were taken
down and burned.
The lynchings came after 5 hours
labor to enter the cells in the Jail and
were tn outcome of an alleged attack
Friday upon Mrs. George Rose at Ter
home. The mob gathered about sew
en- O'Clock today after hearing that
the police had arrested a negro nam
ed Brick Finley. The mob demanded
the prisoner, refused to heed the APP
peal of city and county officers to
dispense, and brushed aside the police
reserves sent to the scene. They bat
tered the Jail door down, but found
the prisoners locked in steel cells.
Failing to find the keys, they summon
ed a foundryman to cut the bars to
Finley's cell. Shortly before noon he
had made an opening sufficient to
enable the negro to emerge.
He quietly walked out of the build
ing with his captors, who announced
they intended to lynch him if Mrs.
Rose identified him. The march to
her home was taken mp and on the
Asa Thornhill, about 20 years
who, it had been reported, had
lauded Finley's attack, was seized.

LUMBERMEN TO CONFER
on THE CAR SHORTAGE
Manufacturers viii Meet in Memphis
FridaytO Plan Ways to Relieve
Scarcity of Rolling Stock

Memphis, Oct. 16.-A conference of
Southern lumber manufactures to con
slider ways and mea to relieve the
most serious car shortage in indus
trial history has been called for next
Friday in Hotel Gayoso by the South
ern Hardwood Traffic Association.
Letters were sent out yesterday by
John w. Mcclure, president, and J. H.
Towshend, secretary treasurer IL
Townsnd, secretary manager of the
traffic association, and by Harry B.
Weiss, president, and John NJ. Pritch-
ard, secretary, of the Gum Lumber
Manufacturers Association, urging all
southern lumber manufactures to at
tend the conference.
Mr.. Mcclure said the detailed pro-
gram for the meeting had not been
worked out. The conference is call
ed primarily to discuss the situation,
and out of the discussion may come
some plan which will enable lumber
shippers to get more cars to transport
their product to market.
Lumbermen are charging that the
railroads are discriminating against
them in favor of cotton shippers. The
railrdad officials admit they are CIV
ing preference to cotton seed because
that is a perishable comomdity.
The domestic lumber trad els better
just now than it has been in many
months, but manufacturers are una
BILE to fill orders on account of their
inability to obtain sufficient cars to
haul logs and lumber.
Many manufactures in a position to
barge Timber are unable to do SO on
account of the low stage of water in
the Mississippi and it's tributaries.
Mr.. Mcclure say kilograms he has
received from manufactures in all
parts of the South indicate that lum-
bermen are heartily in favor of the
conference. He expects an unusually
lareg attendance.

German Spring Campaign

Undoubtedly the requirements for the dc
fence are artillery, munitions and officers.
Prvates the French and British have; the
other essentials are lacking in sufficient num-
Der or quality. If the Germans attempt such
a campaign the inability of the Italian army
to offer effective resistance, the lack OF equip
ment for Kitchener's three millions, the sup
posed lack of training in the British officers
and the probable inability of Russia to begin
a new offensive this summer will be cardinal
points in the calculation. Should the German
assumption prove wrong on any one OF these,
it might make the difference between success
and failure.
Naturally enough, activity must also be
manifested by the Germans in Northern
France to retain the present troops in the
British and French trenches, to prevent the
cooperation in the south of as many men
possible; to prevent, also, the erection OF
Notifications and trenches intended TO meet
such a movement in the south. Probably this
will explain the recent minor offensive move
nents on the German west front. They wish
to know whether any considerable body OF
troops is being dispatched TO begin the forti-
fication of the southern approaches.
Upon Great Britain everything seems 20
depend The French have confessedy done
everything they could and have accomplished
more than any one supposed possible The
Russians have done more in the last SIX
months than any one thought possible, but it
is not anything like enough to interfere with
this kind OF spring campaign Upon Kitch-
ener's new army, its quality, its munitions, the
whole issue unquestionaby depends If ii is
what the Germans think it is they will win the
war this summer or fall If it is what the
Allies hope it is, the new German offensive
will be defeated But If it succeeds the Brit
ish and French will be caught IN the jaws Of
2 trap from which there will be no escape
and which will make surrender inevitable
These arc the reasons which convince nc
that this is the plan at which the Germans
have been working. l wish TO stress the num-
Der and variety Of non-rnilitary factors OH
which it depends for success, and to point out
that il the Germans should become convinced
at any time that conditions vital 10 success
had altered the campaign might be abandoned
before it had been begun at any stage OF
its execution.
