Land

An investment in piece of
land is sure and certain. Stocks
and bonds may go up or down,
things in action may rise or fall
in value, commodities may be
worth much today and little to-
morrow, but the land itself re-
mains, and its value is to be
measured not by the fluctuations
in general prices, but by its own
productive capacity. No greater
heritage can be left young man
than a farm, and the most valu-
able knowledge that can be
obtained from all the schools,
colleges and universities is that
which enables him to handle this
farm and make it productive and
profitable. West Point Times

point to visit the Tri-State Fair at
Memphis. Tenn. Sept. 2S to Oct. 3. The
greatest cattle show ever seen In the

Breeders Of every grade Of regis
tered beef and dairy cattle will meet
at Memphis at the close of the fair
season to fight 1t out for final suprem-
acy. Breeders from far and near have
been attracted by the Tri-State Fair

three large barns have been erected

ANNOUNCEMENTS

T. u. SISSON

We had a little chat with Mr..
Hagge, manager of the local
creamery, a few days ago and
find him to be a very pleasant
man and we'll on to his job. He
informs us that the creamery is
now making and shipping in the
neighborhood of $4,000 pounds
of butter per month and that
more than $4,000 are paid out
each month to the farmers for
cream. This is a considerable
item when we consider that this
is money brought into the COM
munity, and not merely changed
from one hand to another. He
also tells us that that business is
payirr considerable sums to
pc, living so far away that
Il roducts have to be shipped
by This business has grown
I'M low he sends out more
thu thousand dollars every
two eks to this class of Gus
toners alone.
This is a good business, but
there is an anomalous situation
connected with its handling.
We are told that an order has
been promulgated by the rail
roads which requires farmers to
load their cream on the cars and
to be present when the train re-
turning their cream cans hap
pens along So that they may be
able to take them off and further
that the railroads give no receipts
for either the cream or empty
cans. Surely there is no bust
ness in any such manner of deal
ing. The farmers can not make
a profit out of this business if
they must stand beside the rail
road track and wait for trains to
run that they may act as hustlers
for their own freight. 1t seems
to US that the interest of the
farmers should be the interest
of the railroad also. The farm
ers are continually making ton
mage in this business and the
road should appreciate this fact.
The mere matter of handling the
cream and cans is a very small
item as compared with the
business this class of farming
brings the roads. It's the money
the farmer spends that makes
the whole local tonnage for the
railroads in this section. Now
that the old source of money to
this section is nearly destroyed,
the creamery business should be
fostered by every other interest
that it may help to set the farm
ers ahead again.
Then, too. those who know
will remember that one of the
railroads industrial men laid the
foundation for this business
here, and for the railroads to so
manipulate its handling that the
man at its very foundation can
not succeed is equivalent to kill
ing its own child. It is well
known that a farmers time is
his principal asset. If some of
this must be wasted each day, it
is evident the business requiring
the wastage will be a failure.
1t is the man at the bottom, the
foundation stone. Of every bust
ness who needs to be given a
fair deal. When he fails the
whole superstructure must fail.
If the railroads are peeved be-
