COURTS CONVENE:
COUNTY FAIR.

What has become of that proposed
county far that excited our people to
such high pitch few months ago!
For nearly month facts have been in
hand relative to the cost OF each of the
proposed grounds that are under con-
sideration to be purchased for a fair
grounds, yet no meeting has been call
ed to decide whether or not either will
be purchased or to even decide if the
fair will be carried out or abandoned.
The writer is not IN the attitude OF
blaming any certain person for this de-
lay, but something should be done soon
and MUST be if there Is county fair
held this year.
Never IN the history of the county
have the conditions been so favorable
for holding a county fair as the coming
fall. Our farmers are growing bigger
crops, are farming better than ever be-
fore, the high price of live stock has
SO enthused oJr people that there can
be made a better showing in that line
than ever before.
With larger crops, more farming in
terest and more energy IN producing
blooded live stock certainly presents
the most encouraging outlook for a fair
this fall that have ever been.
What will we do? Let's say it, be
that what 1t may.

In this issue appears the call for 6
meeting at the court house, Wednes
day, June IL, at 3 90 p. m. to organize
a Red Cross Chapter here.
Every person knows OF the Red Cross
in a general way yet most of us know
little in specific way At the meet.
ing much information will be present
ed touching the working of this most
humanitarian of all organlzatlCns.
Mrs. F. H. Washburn, of Pomona,
has had considerable experience with
the Red Cross and will be able to give
the ladies and others much interesting
light on the subject of its aims ana &C
complishments.
Mrs. Anna e. Hubbard and daugh-
tiers, Misses Beryl and Eileen, of Ann
Arbor, Michigan, are here. They have
had recent experience IN Red Cross
work IN Europe and will doubtless be
able to aid very much IN getting the
matter before our people IN an inter-
estlng ana effective way.
Now that we are into the great war
as O. nation there will be greatly en-
iarged need of Red Cross work among
our own people. The greatest need
and greatest aid Will be given in the
French hospitals and our people,
through the Red Cross, can and will do
much to relieve suffering,
That our people Will gladly aid such
worthy and patriotic cause there can
be no doubt Com out, join the organ
izatIon and lend that aid the sympathy

MIDDLE Tenn. FARM NEWS

Division Of Extension College Of
Agriculture, University Of Tennessee
Knoxville.
AS one travels through the beautiful
pasture country of Middle Tennessee
this spring, one of the most marked
and most unfortunate differences to be
noted from former years is the very
few sheep and lambs that are in EVIL
dence. There has been continued and
very rapid decrease until, where once
practically every farm had Its flock,
there are now to be found only few
stragglers here and there, and it just
about one month until time of the an
nual sacrifice of these.
Each year breeding ewes have be-
come scarcer and higher IN price, but
there has been corresponding increase
In the price of lambs and wool and this
has tempted the sheep raiser to take
one more chance. lie has sold out an
nually, not only his lamb crop, but his
entire breeding flock, depending upon
Providence to send him another. In
times of prosperity Providence may be
depended upon to take pretty good care
OF our needs, but in war times we had
better hold on to the bird we already
have in our hands.
1t will be practically impossible to
we let ours go to the market@there is
such a scarcity of mutton ana lamb
I that they will be slaughtered. If ev-
cry eve IN the country were saved
there would not be enough to supply
our needs.
| There are hundreds of farmers IN the
State right now wanting breeding
ewes, who cannot find them. Our only
prospect for eve supply is from the
| West, and difficulties of transportation
which is the prospect now-lndicate
that 1t Will doubtless be impossible to
obtain these.
Are we going to yield to temptation
this spring of the highest price that
has ever been offered US, and sacrifice
all that we have left? In the face of
most serious shortage Of wool IN this
country, and with 1t now selling above
so cents per pound, are we going TO let

HEAVY WHEAT ACREAGE.
This fall will undoubtedly witness
the greatest wheat acreage ever sown
in Tennessee, which will mean an
abundance of winter pasture. Let not
last winters failure discourage any
one. This ID no time to quit. None
but the unproductive should be permit
ted to go to the market this year.
Here is great work for the conser-
walton committees of your County Or
ganizatlons. Set them at it and help
them locate every breeding eve IN the
county, and help them to dispose of
every one that can be used to advant-
age IN the count next year. Any sur
plus you may have is gong to be want
ed by somebody IN your county or in a
nelghborhing county. This IS no time

time like this is simply depriving his
own children or some one else's child

PREPAREDNESS MEETING.
Attendance not Large and no Solution
of Seed Problem Devised.

The preparedness meeting held at
the court house Saturday afternoon
/ brought out a fair crowd and consider
able enthusiastic and encouraging talk
was INDUCED IN, but no real solution Of
seed shortage was devised.
Judge e. E. Snodgrass presided anu
talks were delivered by several per
sons. all OF whom urged increased
effort to gorw more feed and TODD and
at the same time enjoined economy IN
our living so far as food is concerned.
The people were urged to allow moth
ing to go to waste that is suitable for
food for man or beast.
Cashier j. s. Reed told of the extent
to which the First National Bank had
helped the farmers this season by loan
ing them money for buying seed and
other things incident to the present
crop, the amount being $50, 900.
He gave some startling figures rela-
| tive to the amount of seeds, fertilizer,
grain and hay that has been shipped
into the county thus tar this year.
His figures were understood to be ap.
proxlmate only, but he expressed the
belief that the figures given were ex-
tremely conservative. He showed that
for millet, timothy and clover seed and
soy beans our people had spent nearly
$l2, 200. They have bought for spring
planting fertilizer amounting to more
than $4,000. In the past twelve
months our farmers have paid out the
following amount tor the articles
named:
Corn $25.6O0
Hay 2S, 800
Oats $4,000
Total Sl1S,9O0
Last year the county shipped:
Sheep and wool $1,000
Hogs. over $4,000
Total $4,000
of the cattle shipped from the county,
but there is every probability that the
cattle brought to the county fully as
much or more than the sheep and hogs
combined.
He called attention to the fact that
both sheep and hogs are short to an
hof 10
fully $4,000 Short of last year.
He also stated that farmers as
whole are in better shape financially
than ever before and with reasonable
crops Will &be able to retire most of
their Indebtedness this fall.
The editor of the Chronicle has made
dllligent inquiry among the farmers of
the county for some weeks and finds
that the largest crop is in prospect
that was ever grown here, especially
potatoes. While crops are fully two
weeks or more late, they were put in
in better condition than usual ard the
variety of crops planted has been wide
ly varied as we'll AS enlarged. More
farmers are eXerting themselves to
grow the food needed tor home use
than ever before. The only drawback
that presents itself at this time is the
inability of many small farmers to Sc
cure seed to plant considerable acre
age that IS available. 1t was hoped
that some arrangement would he per-
fected whereby the needed seed would
be provided, but nothing definite was
done along that line.
In order to assist the state and gov
eminent in It's present food survey
there will be meetings held at several
places over the county the next ten
days or two weeks at " hlch some very
interesting information touching the
food problem and the war will be pre-
sented. Farmers are urged to attend

Count HERTL|NC MAY
GET HOLLWEC'S PLACE
Opposition Getting Together
for Fresh Attack, Due to
Speech POstpOnement

london, May 9.-Presence in Berlin
today of the Bavarian premier, Count
Hertling, has revived rumors in Ger
many that he is to succeed Won Beth
man-Hollweg as imperial chancellor, ac.
cording to dispatches received via
Holland
From Zurich it was reported that
Hollweg had already rendered his
resignation, but there was no confirma-
tion of such rumor.
| Count Hertling is ostensibly in Ber-
lin to preside at the meeting N0f the
| foreign affairs committee of the fed
eral council.
All Holland dispatches today EN-
phasized the existence of serious in
| ternal political crisis in Germany. For
weeks it has been apparent that senti-
ment against Hollweg among his politi-
cal opponents was slowly crystallizing.
| Heretofore the chancellor has succeed
ed in weathering all opposition because
of the inability of the opposing politi-
cal parties to get together On any CON
certed plan of forcing his retirement.
Today German newspapers indicated
fresh attack on Hollweg likely to af-
ford ground for such concert of action
in dissatisfaction over repeated post
ponement of the chancellor's much ad'
vertised speech outlining Germany s
war aims.
