4 SAFE AND SANE CROPPING
SYSTEM FOR 1917.

Misled by the glamor of 20 cent cot
ton, there is grave danger that many
southern farmer will stake his all on
this one crop--forgetting that cotton,
compared with other commodities, is
not really high priced; forgetting the
need of living at home first of all; for
getting the great lesson that soil fer
tility must come first in successful
farming.
BY spring corn will probably he sell
| ing for $1.50 a bushel, -four at SIP a
barrel, hay at $50 to $50 a ton. Cot
ton seed meal and acid phosphate are
soaring and potash fertilizers in guam
tity cannot be had at all; consequently
every farmer who expects to get his
soil fertility in sacks is going to have
to pay dearly for it. Shoes and leather
goods of all kinds are higher than this
generation has ever known; imple-
ments, wire fencing and nails are
high, and apparently are going higher.
All ini2ll then, cotton. .relatiyely...i is
Ivt~swS frue it-ls now SO per cent
higher than the standard price Of re-
cent years, but practically everything
else we eat, wear, or otherwise, use is
also so per cent or more higher. This
being true-and any man with his
eyes open knows that it is true-whert
is there a particle Of logic or common
sense in rushing pell-mell into all cot
ton?
Whether cotton is high or low, fol
the cotton farmer anywhere in tn,
south we have consistently held tha
there is one and only one sound, SAT,
tplan, and that is to provide for food
feed and soil fertility first, and thel
4 raise what cotton he can on the acre

crops. This means
A la good garden, plenty of lrisl

hogs, and corn and wheat for bread

4 grazing for the chickens, hogs, cattl
and horses, good acreage in oats fol

an abundance of corn and peas o

buy feed another season.
e IA legume crop on every acr

|NHEN HOGS ARE SICK
IT'S PROBABLY CHOLERA

Tennessee raised in 1918 approx
mately 1,495,000 hogs, and of that
number lS3, 2O4 died of cholera. OF all
the hogs that die in Tennessee each
year, ninety per cent die of cholera.
It is this discouraging situation that
keeps faniers from buying better hogs
with which tosbuild up their herds.
their hogs are affected with cholera
call the disease by some other name.
They say it is fever, perhaps, or pneu-
monia, or typhoid, or forage poison
ing, or somethingselse. But hog chol-
era kills no matter by what name it is
known in the community. Certainly
it is a fever, higher than aceompa-
MES any other disease of hogs; pneu-
monia? Certainly! Hemorrhages in
! the lungs and infamed areas; typhoid?
I typieally so; forage poisoning? why,
yes, if the forage be poisoned with the
virus of hog cholera.
Hog cholera is an infectious and
contagious disease due to the intro
duction of virus into the body of the
hog. Nothing else causes cholera. At
ter the virus has been in the hog five
to seven days, rise of temperature
is noticed. About the tenth day the
hog is off feed, shows scours or con-
stipation, gauntness, catarrhal condi-
tionSof the nose and eyes, and weak,
staggering gait. Hog cholera is a
blood poison, for the virus floats in the
blood.
To control such a disease let us
4 call spade spade, and fight it, Let
us eliminate luck and put hog raising
on profitable basis by getting rid OF
| this scourge to the hog industry.

WHY WOMEN CAN oUTTALk MEN

A woman can talk longer than a man
because she requires less force IN
speaking than the man does, the New
York Sun tells us. A German profess
sor has proved by actual and very del
icate measurements that barytone
singer uses far more energy than the
tenor and that the bass singer uses
more force than either.
The range Of voices differs greatly,
so the percentage varies to the same
extent, but as a general result 1t was
proved that the tenor uses only from
one-seventh to one-siXteenth OF the
lung power of the barytone or bass
The difference between the force used
bv the contralto and the soprano Is
also marked, and the contralto who
sings in very deep tones uses at leasi
ten times the force of the thrilling
soprano.
The explanation is so simple that l
is surprising that the investigation
was not made long ago. 1t has Ions
: been known that the tenor or soprano
: brings the vocal cords closer togethe
; and keeps the edges only vibrating b.
the emission of air The bass or con
: tralto leaves the space between tn
< cords wider open and has TO viorat
r very much more of the membranes, S
5 that a considerably larger amount o
al, is required and much more fore
c is expended
Persons with high, squeaky voice
k often seem to be very loquacious, an
G the reason is now plain-they can tai
S with far less effort than those VIII
n take deeper tone and have to us
" more air to utter their words.
e Here lies the real explanation OF tn
e ease with which woman can out-tal
n a man. She has the advantage OF u
/ ing from one-seventh to one-sixteent
:; less lung power, and even though NJ
d lungs may be smaller, the Different
