AS the South Georgia Conference
represents one hundred thousand
Methodists in the southern half of
the state, and more than 400 dele
gates are expected 20 attend, the en-
tertainment of such large and i'm
portant body represents no small

Albany is ready and extends a hand
of welcome with a full confidence in
her ability to handle the pleasing
task in a manner that will uphold the
city's reputation for hospitality.
Aside from the conference appoint

perhaps the feature of most import

euection of delegates to the quadren-
NAL meeting, the General Conference
Of Southern Methodism. which will be
held during the week. Six clerical
and six lay debates will be chosen
to represent the South Georgia Con-
terence at the General Conference,

ding, "of course | might not return

and his people are anxious to have
him do so the Bishop adjusts matters
to suit the occasion"

RECORD YIELD OF RYE.
y. W. OHEhhIL,
State Superintendent

What is regarded by agricultural
experts as record yield of rye in
Tennessee is reported from field
in demonstration farm of the
Nashville, Chattanooga and ST.
Louis railway at Tullahoma. The
yield for this 25 acre field was 90 90
38 bushels or total of 734.5 bush
els for the twenty five acres. Fifty
five acres of new ground, treated
only with commercial fertilizers,
produced 415.5 bushels, or an aver
age of 7.55 bushels per acre. The
total yield for the 80 acres was l, ,150
bushels, or an average of 1437
bushels per acre.
From figures given in "Statis-
tics for Tennessee published by
Bureau of Census Of the Depart
ment of Commerce in 1914, the
average yields of rye in Tennessee
is 6.l9 bushels per acre. The
average yields for few of the rich
or counties of the State range a.
round 9 bushels per acre. The av-
erage yield for Coffee county in
which the demonstration farm is
located, is GAL bushels per acre.
Joseph Fl. Judd, special agricul-
tural agent of the company, who is
in charge of the demonstration
farm work, believes the record of
the Tullahoma farm is the highest
production of any field in the State.
Mr.. Judd says the results obtain
ed have been due to the use of
ground limestone and turning un-
der of winter cover crops.

FIND OUT YOUR
DRAFT NUMBER

There is only one way of finding
out accurately the order in which
you will be called for examination
by your local exemption board now
or later, says the New York World.
This is the method:
Find out from your newspaper
the total number of registered men
in your district.
Take the list of numbers printed
today either for the city alone or
for the whole country, and cross
out every number above the figure
representing the total registered in
your district.
Count down from the top every
number that is left in the column.
The number you count when you
reach your own ..'red" number will
give you the exact position you oc-
cupy on the call list in your dis
trict.
For instance: Your number is
837.
You live in district No. LAB.
The table of registrations, by
districts, printed yesterday, shows
that in district No. 143 there are
2,l4l men registered.
A glance at the list of numbers
drawn at Washington shows that
No. 837 was the ninety. ninth num-
Der drawn. But
Ii you go through the list of
ninety-nine numbers and eliminate
every number above 2,141 you will
have seventeen numbers left.
Hence you will be the seven
teenth man called for examination
in your district.

MRS. CAMPBELL
PRAISES TANLAC
Said Her Son Had to Live ON
rIilk, Eggs and Orange Juice.

"My son is so much better since
taking Tanlac that he doesn't look
like the same boy" said Mrs. l..
Campbell in reference to her son,
W. Il. Campbell, whose condition
of i'll health has been the subject
of great concern to his parents.
Mrs. Campbell's husband is engi-
neer for the Acme Building and

the family resides at 1417 Fifteenth
street, that city.
"Yes, added the son, who had
come in time to hear his mothers
remark, 81 don't feel like the same
boy, either, for I am gaining and
feeling better every day."
"He has had bad folm of stom-
ach trouble for the past three
years." continued Mrs. Campbell,
"and for several months the boy
was actually SO bad off he had to
live on milk aud orange juice and
a few eggs. He had a job with
the street car company, but had to
give it up on account of his condi-
tion.
"He simply couldn't eat anything
that would agree with him and he
would suffer SO much with gripping
and pains that he'd have to be up
and down all night.
"We had several doctors 10 see
him and they said a number of
different things was the trouble
and advised us to send him to
He wasn't able to do
in the way of work and
nothing seemed to do him any good
until We found out about Tanlac
and got him started on it.
"He is now on his third bottle
and he has improved SO much that
you'd hardly know him. He sleeps
we'll at night and gets up in the
morning bright and cheerful and
all his old troubles have left him.
1t had been three years since he
could do anything to help around
the house, but now he cuts up the
wood and kindling and can do just
like that.

IMPORTANT
CAMPAIGN


Tennessee than that soon to be
waged by our educational forces,
assisted by the departments of
agriculture and health. This cam
.paign is for community organiza-
tion to secure better educational,
agricultural and health condition.
No effective work can be done
along these lines without organiza-
tion. The reason people living in
towns and cities have advantages
that people living in rural districts
do not have is because of organiza-
tion. Ii the people of the rural
districts will organize as planned
in this campaign they can bring
to themselves unthought of i'm
provements.
First, we believe that there
should be definitely fixed commun-
ity boundaries and every citizen
should know to what community
he belongs and owes allegiance.
We believe there are no better
boundaries for our communities
than those fixed for our schools,
and the people belonging to a
school should constitute a COM
munity.
AS the county has common
center, the court house, so the
community must have a center and
we believe this center should be
the school house. Every COM
munity should have a community
house, a place where the people
can meet for any purpose and
where school is conducted.
The people of a community need
to meet and determine those things
that will be for their best interests
as a community. We believe that
every patriotic citizen desires to
see better educational, agricultural
and health conditions in his COM
munity, and we urge every COM
munity to organize and appoint
committees whose duty it will be
to look after these interests. These
committees will receive the most
hearty cooperation from the State
departments representing these
interests.
The educational committee
should see that the community or
school house is comfortable, attrac-
tive and sanitary, that the grounds
are beautiful and made homelike.
It should see that the social advan-
tages are as they should be. 1t
should create demand for long
school terms, efficient teachers and
a more strict enforcement of the
attendance law.
The agricultural committee
should consider the community
problems along the line Of produc-
ton, distribution and conservation
all the problems relating to the
agricultural activities of the farm
and of the home.
The health committee by making
san itation the care of TIE CON-
munity can protect the health OF
the individual. The major causes
of death in our State are found in
diseases that are to large extent
preventable. Through an active
committee aided by local physi-
clans and the State Department OF
Health, many of our most dreaded
diseases can be largely controlled
