 During the week that has just ended Manager Davis has checked up his list of reservations and placed barn of fifty more stalls along the long fence at the back Of the large group of barns. And if further checking up during the coming week indicates that others gre necessary, they will be built

GET RID OF THOSE
RATS THAT BOTHER
YOUR CHICKENS
Easy Method Here ExpIained--An Ef.
fectiVe Remedy, But It Must Be
Used With the Utmost Care.

Have the rats ever bothered your
chickens? Get rid of the rats. They
destroy food.
Broil moderately thick steak, and,
while it is still hot, spread over it
about one-half can of good rat paste.
By putting this paste on while the
steak is hot, it soaks in and the rats
are unable to detect it. The steak
afterwards should be cut in small
pieces about a half inch square and put
in box where the rats frequent One
application is usually sufficient to
clean up the rats in the neighborhood,
Before putting out this treatment,
however, be sure to advise your neigh.
bors to close up their cats and dogs.
as 1t is equally as deadly to them as
it is to the rats. The effectiveness
of this treatment is in putting the
paste on the meat while it is boiling
and then cutting the meat up without
letting the hands touch 1t. If the
meat smells of the human hands, the
rats are not so liable to go for the
feast.
After poisoning the rats, great care
should be exercised in picking them
up and burning them. 1t is not ad.
visable'to bury them, as they may be
dug up little later by some animal
and the chickens may get to them

WHEAT ACREAGE

Farmers throughout East Tennes-
see are making extensive prepare
tons for sowing the fall crops of
wheat, Large areas of farming land
are being plowed and gotten in con-
dition for the crops. Local seed deal
ers predict that the acreage in this
section will be much larger than in
former years, owing to the high prices
that have prevailed for wheat since the
entrance of the United States into
the world war.
Prices of wheat and fertilizers are
higher than formerly and it is esti-
mated that the cost of production will
greater, as farm laborers are getting
higher wages for their services. In
many localities reports of the scarcity
of labor are becoming more general
every week. Little, if any, of the com
mon labor is being exported from this
section. However the selective con-
scription for military service is call
ing many men from the agricultural
fields of East Tennessee, as well as
from elsewhere in the country. Seed
dealers say demands for field seeds
will be unprecedentedly heavy until
the fall crops are planted.

EAST TENNESSEE
EDUCATIONAL ASSOCIATION

One of the features of the cominI
meeting of the East Tennessee Educa
tional Association at Knoxville. Oct
1927, 1917, will be the conference OF
the boards of education, county. city
and high SCHOOL. The first confer.
ence will be held on Friday at s a. m.
when there will be round-table dis
cussion of important topics. On Fri
Gay at p. M, there will be Joint
meeting of the county and city super
intendents and boards of education
This meeting will be addressed by Pre-
r. l.. Jones of the Middle Tennessee
State Normal School, Dr.. Carter Alex
ander of the George Peobody College
for Teachers and Hon. w. H. Hand
OF the State Department of Education
of South Carolina. On Saturday at
8 a. M, the different boards will meet
for separate and permanent organiza-
ton and for the election of officers
for the ensuing year.
A conference of this kind has great
possibilities. In this way boards of
education can meet the leading educa-
tors of the state and have the oppor-
tunity of discussing and hearing dis
cussed topics of vital interest, thereby
becoming more fully identified with
the cause of education. 1t is sincerely
hoped that all boards will cooperate
with the management of the Associa-
ton, urging that as many teachers as
possible from their respective coun-
ties or towns shall attend and making
it known that the pay of all teachers
attending this meeting will go on dur
ing the days of their attendance. Let
it not be forgotten that one of the
most effectual ways of promoting our
educational interests is having a great
annual conference of our various
school representatives. During the
past two years we have jumped from
registered membership of 1922 to
1859. In spite of war conditions we
are confidently expecting an attend
ance at the coming meeting of $500.
An excellent program is being pre-
pared. Besides the general programs
there will be thirteen different de-
partmental meetings, while a num-
Der of notable speakers have been
engaged. The lowest railroad rates
to be given after September l have
been secured. A full program will be
sent out to all teachers of East Ten
nessee about three weeks before the
meeting.

TO SAVE CALVES FEED WELL
AND CARE FOR TENDERLY

Feeding the COW we'll before calvine
insures a strong, healthy calf, The
best time to ween the calf is after il
takes the first milk. Early weaving
makes it easier to teach the calf 10

Everything about the calf should be
scrupulously clean.
Milk from infected cows or from a
creamery should be pasteurized be.
fore it is fed.
Calves should be fed sweet milk of
uniform temperature and should al.
ways receive little less than they
desire.
All calves should be fed regularly;
very young calves should be fed
three times a day.
At first the calf is fed whole milk.
the quantity being gradually in.
creased. Skim milk is substituted as
soon as practicable and if cheap is
continued until the calf is six months
old. Ordinarily the maximum quantity
of skim milk that can be fed econom
ically is 20 pounds day. When the
calf is two weeks old, grain and
bright, clean hay should be offered;
the quantity fed should be increased
as the Calls appetite demands.
Milk substitutes are not equal to
milk, but give fair results when used
with care.
Quarters must be clean and dry,
with plenty of bedding.
Stanchions save milk and prevent
the calves from sucking one another.
Horns are more easily prevented
than removed.
Water is necessary for calves.-U
