YOUR MONEY is SAFE.
Federal Reserve Bank Would Help First
National, if Needed

There is fear among some people
that they are In danger of losing their
money in the bank if the bank Is rob-
bed, or if the bank does not at all times
have enough money in the safe to pay
off all depositors. There is no danger
IN a National Bank. The United
States Government has and runs twelve
banks called Federal Reserve Banks.
One of them is at Atlanta, Georgia,
and 1t looks after all banks IN It's dis
trlct that have stock in 1T, and when
they are In need 1t helps them, and so
they cannot break If they deserve to be
an inspector around and he examines
the books and affairs of the member
banks, and so the Government knows
what banks are in good condition and
worthy of help.
The bank at CrossVllle Is a member
of and has stock in the Federal Re.
serve Bank at Atlanta, and when 1t
heard of the robbery at Crossville, 1T

Besides the backing of the Reserve
Bank, the bank at Crossvllle carries
insurance to cover many times such
losses as it recently sustained by The
robbery. Besides all this, in case of
loss by bank, the money of the bank
Itself goes to pay the loss. and as long
as 1t has plenty to pay the loss, the de-
posltors are in no danger, and the Gov
ernment won't allow National Bank
to run unless it has sufficient money of
Its own to pay losses.

ARMY OF THE FURROW."
High School Students Released for Farm
Work Without Loss of Credits,
Yours truly,
J. E. Converse.

Action has been taken by the state
board of education to release students
from High Schools to return to their
home for working on the farm, without
loss of credits for the remainder of the
year.
County high school boards are auth
orized to release students without
waiting for instructions from the state
board. Since enIistments in the army
and navy are expected to reduce the
available persons tor farm work this
move is expected to relieve to a con-
siderable extent the present shortage
and any further shortage that might
arise through enlistment,

GROWING POTATOES
Nitrate OF Soda Needed to Get Best Re-
turns from Acid Phosphate

Crossville, Tenn, April 16, 1917.
TO Farmers of the Cumberland Pla-
teau:
In this year when there IS every rea-
son to produce food crops in greater
abundance than ever before, because
the stores OF the world are low and the
whole world IS IN war. a special oppOr-
tunlty and duty rests with us to pro-
duce the maximum crop of potatoes..
Opportunity, l say, because at the
present high prices that are in effect,
there is room for more profit on pota-
toes on our cheap lands, than IN any
other part of our state.
Duty, because of the war. We
should never allow our country to be
beaten because of food questions, as 1T
appears that food is causing as much
concern In Europe as shot or shell.
1t IS now planting time, and we
should plant as maby potatoes as we
we'll can. but equally important with
planting big area, is good prepara-
ton of the seed bed and proper fertili-
zation and cultivation.
Potatoes want loose seed bed. If
you haven't planted, see that the soil
is loose and fine. 1t you have planted
give it deep thorough cultivation, If
possible, before the potatoes come up.
Next. the proper fertilizer. Our ex-
periments have shown that potash IS
not necessary on the Plateau, but that
phosphate and nitrogen are. and judg-
ing by the great quantity OF acid phos-
phate that has been unloaded at Cross
vile the potatoes OF this section will
receive all the phosphate they need and
more than they can use, unless nitro
gen is added, and the writer believes
that not enough nitrogen has come to
the Plateau.
HOW TO GET NITROGLN.
Don't delay planting to order nitro

ROAD WORK TO BEGlN SOON.
East End Of Memphis s-to-BrlstoI to Re-
ceive First Attention.

The Highway Commission expects to
begin active construction work at no
distant date if they are able to secure
hands and teams. Owing to the great
demand for teams and hands to push
the farming just now, owing to the
very backward condition IN which al
most every farmer in the county finds
himself, there promises to be consider
able trouble to secure men and teams
for the road work.
The first place at which work will
likely begin will be in extending the
work of completing the Memphis-to-
Bristol highway east to the Roane
county line. There are some five to
soven miles remaining to be completed.
The west end to the White county line
will also be another of the strips of
road to be finished early IN the road
working for this year.
1t will be remembered that at the
last term of county court the highway
commission was requested by the court
to complete the southerly end of the
Dixie Short Route from Crossvllle
south to the Bledsoe county line and to
run same as near to the Herbert Do
main state property as possible. 1t is
probable the commission will be &C
lively at work in this line as early as
they are able to secure sufficient hands
and teams to justify breaking ground
for that section of road.

APPEAL To FARMERS,
Commissioner H. A. Morgan Urges Far
mers to Largely Increase Food
and Feed Crops.

10 the Farmers OF tennessee: w
are at war. The situation demands
our immediate consideration. In the
quiet of your occupation you may moi
have realized the important part you
are called upon to take.
The South must raise food crops fol
its own people and for its live stock.
Tennessee farmers are going to pro-
duce IN addition a surplus for the SOL
diers, the sailors and those compelled
to work in non-food producing aclivl-
ties.
MAKE LARGE PLANS.
The planting season and the spring
rush of farm work ls upon US. Before
gong further, make an estimate of
your livestock. Plan to meet these
and liberal surplus by this season s
planting. Until peace, world peace,
has been obtained, ideals in crop rota-
tion, soil fertility and even animal hus-
bandry must be sacrificed for necessary
food supplies.
CAN ALL SURPLUS.
AS farmers, our patriotism is chal-
lenged. We are called upon to join
now the food preparedness army of the
South. The patriotism of the farmers
of the cotton counties of West Tennes-
see is especially under test. Before
a seed of cotton is planted, lve-at-
horne policy should be defined. The
spring and fall garden is gong to be a
necessity. "lhe canning of surplus
fruits and vegetables tor winter, food
provision for the family cows, the work
stock, the meat hogs and poultry, and
even surplus OF food products is de-
manded.
PAST NO GUIDE.
The past will be absolutely no guild
during the war period. The essential
food crops will be the most profitable
money crops.
Corn, beans, potatoes, garden pro-
duce, fruits. fresh and canned, milk
and it's products, poultry and eggs and
food for work stock are now and will
be the essential food crops during the
war. Provide these first. The late
summer and fall grain crops as we'll
should be planned now.
FOOD WILL WIN THE WAR.
Let US not delay making food plans
and even sacrifices of effort essential
to victory. This war ia going to be
won by food supply. The cart the
farmers of Tennessee are going to take
must be determined IN the next few
days. Let US organize each farm in
the state as unit in the food supply
OF the state. Let US assure those who
are at the front and those now to be
called that as far as we ale concerned
every possible sacrifice will be made to
provide food in abundance.

Alien Land Bill Set for Today.
Attorney BObs Up Again.

Boise, Idaho, Feb. 20.-With the
avowed purpose of preventing mar
riage between Japanese and Amer
leans, bill was introduced in the
Senate today that promises to add
complications to the Japanese diff
culties.
Senator Atherton, of Twin Falls, is
the author of the bill. He said he
introduced it because of case that
arose in his own county Monday
when Japanese had applied for a
license to wed an American girl. The
clerk had refused the license on the
grounds that Japanese we're classi-
fed under the law as mulattos. Lat
er he discovered his mistake.
Wednesday the Senate opens the
hearing into the charges of an i'm
proper lobby maintained during the
present session to defeat the anti
alien bill. E. M. Booth of TWIN
Falls, the attorney who is said to
have handled the lobby for a $1O,-
600 fee, will be here to testify. Sena-
tor Mitchell, president pro tenn of the
ing evidence that Booth told many
Senate is in possession of corroborat-
people he would get the fee If the
bill was defeatd. Booth appeared at
Twin Falls as attorney for the Jap
anese seeking to marry the American
girl.

Philomathian Literary Society OF
Heppner High School at the high
school auditorium last Friday eve
ming. The program was fully up
to Heppner High standard and was
q credit to those in charge as well as
to those who participated. "Colum-
bia, the Gem of the Ocean," sang
very pleasingly by the Glee Club, was
