500 acres in west Tennessee have
been fall plowed. Purehred seed has
been used in planting 1857 cotton and
corn fields. The section harrow has
been used to a greater extent than
ever before, and has been successful in
keeping down weeds and grass. The
section harrow covers much more land
in accomplishing the same work than
any other implement. Legumes have
been planted by 1888 men who have
worked in cooperation with the county
agents in demonstrating the value of
such crops to the county. Crimson
clover, one of these legumes, has been
hard to get this year. but the farmers
of west Tennessee are by no means
discouraged since they realize the
value of it to them,
MIR. Nichols pointed to the fact that,
with the crimson clover seed selling at
$500 bushel, farmers must save their
own seed. The past year, to the best
of knowledge, over 1000 bushels of
crimson clover seed were saved for the
farms on which they were produced.
To assist the soil in producing egumes,
west Tennessee has imported almost
8, 900 tons Of limestone into the count
les having agents. For the immediate
benefit of the whole family, an adequate
garden has been made possible on
many farms in order that the family
may, from their own soil, feed them
selves.
In speaking of the live stock develop
ment in west Tennessee, Mr.. Nichols
gave credit to the banks, railroads,
business men, business mems clubs and
educators for some assistance. One
hundred and seven purebred bulls. POI
purebred heifers, 3,175 purebred hogs
have been brought into counties during
the past year. Eight live stock as
sociatlons have been organized, the
purpose of which is to increase the live
stock possibilities of the counties con-
cerned.
The improvement of gully lands, the
terracing of hillside farms, the boys,
corn clubs, and farm inspection trips
were also treated in Mr.. Nichols re-
port.

States County Agents Hold
Annual Meeting

Knoxville Tenn, Nov. 4, 1915
Fifty farm demonstration agents from
all parts of the state, meeting here in
the library Of the University of Ten
nessee, closed their annual session with
a statement of plans for the coming
year. More live stock suited to the
conditions of the. individual counties
will be encouraged. Community meet
ings will be held to discuss affairs of
the county and for the purpose of get
ting acquainted. Farmers will be as
sisted in their crop rotations in order
that all counties in Tennessee may
build up their soils.
Several counties have just employed
agents, and these men have had the
benefit of the discussions and reports
at this annual meeting. Farm demon
strations are one part of the extension
work in agriculture carried on by the
cooperation of the u. S. Department
of Agriculture. the College of Agricul-
ture of. the University of Tennessee,
the State Board of Education and sew.
eral other organizations. Once each
year the entire field force meet at
Knoxville to make their reports and to
discuss plans for the future.
H. d. Tate, state leader of county
agents, presided at the session and
brought before the county agents, be-
cause of bis thoro training and expert
ence many valuable suggestions. Re-
ports were made by the agents for
their counties and by the district sg-
e nts for their sections Of Tennessee.
Il. s. Nichols is the district agent for

Tuesdays Election Yet in
Doubt

As The Falcon goes to press Thurs
day morning the result of the presi-
Dental election held thruout the nation
on last Tuesday is still in doubt. Will
son and Hughes are running very
close race with indications that the
president will win his reelection if
given fair count OF the votes cast for
him in the close states of the west.
The democrats will hold their control
of both the United States senate and
house of representatives as a result of
the election, but the majority in the
house is reduced from that of the past
two years.
In Tennessee the entire democratic
ticket was elected and the state re-
placed permanently in the democratic
majority. The counties in which large
cities are situated gave very much re-
duced majorities for Governor Rye but
the country counties in Middle and
west Tennessee piled up on their ma
jorities of two years ago hundreds OF
voters who were little afraid two
years ago to put their confidence in the
governor at that time. They have
seen that he has kept the faith these
two years and has come as near living
up to the platform which he was
elected as any governor the state
has had and they have given him their
votes and support. with slightly |
reduced majority the democrats re-
elected Enloe as railroad commissioner
and majority larger than that given
the governor Hon, X. D. Mcclellan
was elected United States senator.
Fisher for congress came out so far
ahead of his republican and negro OPP
ponents that he hardly realized there
was an opposing candidate, the negro
candidate getting more votes in the
district than did the republican,
The result in Fayette county should
be gratifying to its democratic people.
The democratic majority as shown in
another column is about 100 while the
entire vote was about 1900. The
county will have twenty votes in the
next state convention as a result of
he larger vote cast here in this elec-
ion.
The party has every reason to feel
proud of the vote given its candidates
n this county and thruout the state,
and there seems little doubt al this
lime that majority of the votes of
he states were cast for the reelection
If Wilson as president.

Soldiers Tents Blown Down


 LAREDO, Tex. Aug. l9.-Consider- able property damage and great incon- venience to troops in the Virginia guardsmen camps in the Laredo dis trict. from tropical storm which ragged here from o'clock last night until 1 o'clock this morning. For sev- eral hours Laredo was completely cut off from wire communication with the outside world. Practically every tent of the 5000 soldiers here were blown down and the men wei~ exposed to tor rental rains for hours.
 No loss of life has been reported in the district. In Laredo the principal damage was confined to blowing down poles. trees, fences, signs and the de- struction of small buildings The max imum velocity of the wind was SC miles an hour. The storm abated as suddenly as it came.
 Advices from the target range, eight miles southwest of Laredo, where l20C members of the First Missouri Infantr, are at practice, state that 600 shelter tents were blown down and the meI compelled to huddle together in tho open to weather the storm. The regi. ment is expected to return to head l quarters here immediately.
 l Of the six military camps here tn, regulars at Fort Mcintosh fared tn, l best The Fourteenth cavalry occu. pying the barracks, was not affected while the Ninth infantry. which occu pied tents nearby. suffered but sliGh l inconvenience. The remaining Mis- souri troops and the Maine and Nev l Hampshire contingent stationed nea l Fort Mcintosh suffered loss of thei tents and the destruction of severa buildings in their camps.
 Work on reconstruction of the camp was immediately begun.

 It was after a prolonged meeting at their hotel that the railroad presi- dents went 10 the White housc shortly before noon today. to listen 10 Mir. Wilson's appeal and outline their tentative position. At the same time tine general committee of em- ployes held a meeting, but only marked time awaiting the decision of the officials.
 President Wilson welcomed the railroad officials in the blue room and after Mir. Holden had stated their position, began a dramatic appeal which left his visitors sobered and thoughtful. At times striding up and down in front of the small group and emphasizing telling points by shak- ing his fists. the president told the railroad executives bluntly he believed they should accept his plan. We must face the naked truth in this crisis he said. "We must not discuss impractical things. We must get down to basis on which this situation can be solved" Solemnly MT. Wilson pointed out that he represented the 100000 .00O people of the nation, everyone of whom had part in the threatened strike. He said his only object was ! to avoid break. In a voice rising at times that 1t could be heard outside the closed doors. he declared
 he had tried to bring about arbitra i tion that his efforts had failed ana

employees" He added the workmen would remain here. but would take no further action unless requested by Mir. Wilson.
 dha railroad officials found two points in President Wilson's public statement of his settlement plan that cornforted them and led to belief that sVa1tually there will be an agreement sverting a strike. The first was hint that if the facts warranted the inter -tatc commerce commission might grant an increase in freight rates and the second was a suggestion that the sigfla-hour base would be accepted only tentatively and might be terminated after investigation by the commission provided under the presidents plan.
 The railroads all along have con- tended that the fact relating to pay of mem will not justify the eight hour day. and some of them are said to feel that investigation by an impartial com mission can not fail to back up that position. The companies would be under additional expense while the in- vestigation was in progress, but in the opinion of Mir. Wilson, it's work would be done expeditiously and a report inight be expected in a few months.
 The road officials, however, evidently feel that before A decision IS reached every opportunity should be given other business interests to decide what might be the effect on them of an eight-hour railroad day.
