MR.. MILLER CAUSES
SENSATION IN HOUSE
Reads Alleged Unpublished
Portion of Zimmerman Note
Sent Minister in Mexico.
UNTRUE, SAYS MR.. LANSING

Washington, April s.--Representa-
tive Miller OF Minnesota, republican
member of the foreign affairs COM
mittee, sprung a sensation during dis
cussion OF the war resolution in the
house today by declaring that an un-
published paragraph of the Zimmer-
mann note offered to establish sub
marine base in Mexican port, supply
Mexico with unlimited quantities Of
arms and ammunition and send Ger
man reservists in the United States
to Mexico. .
Representative Miller further said
he understood three German schoon-
ers had landed on the western coast
of Mexico and that Villa was sur
rounded by German officers, who had
taken charge of the drilling of his
men. Reliable information, he said,
also was that the Carranza army was
not much better"
Alleged Quotation.
The unpublished portion of the
Zimmerman note Miller quoted as
1OllOWS'
"Agreeably to the Mexican govern
ment, submarine bases will be estab-
lshed at Mexican ports, from which
will be supplied arms, ammunition
and supplies. All reservists are or
dered into Mexico. Arrange to at
tack all along the border
1t has been understood. but never
officially announced, that the full text
of the Zimmerman instructions to
German Minister Won -tckhart was
not published with the main portion,
which revealed the attempt to ally
Mexico and Japan in wa" against the
United States. Members of the for
eign affairs committees in congress,
however, had been supplied with the
full text and with other evidences OF
German intrigues against this govern
mcnt.
Lansing contradicts Miller.
When Representative Miler's quo
tation was submitted to Secretary
Lansing, however, the secretary oil
state declared the Zimmerman in
structions Contained nothing OF the
sort"

Trezevant Fruit Growers

Members Of the Trezevant Fruit
Growers Association held their an
nual meeting and election of officers
Wednesday of last week. Officers
were elected as follows: w. F.
Holt, president; A. H. Jones, vice.
president; w. H. Galloway, secre-
tary. The question of the seIec-
ton of an inspector and grader
was referred to a committee of
five, who will consider men for
these positions and make nomina-
tions for the next meeting, to be
held in two weeks. The association
has never had an Inspector in its
employ before, but it has been
deemed best to have one on the To-
cal platform to inspect the fruit
and see that it is shipped in good
condition.

VALUE OF ANALYZlNG
THE FARM BUSINESS

(By G. X. Alfred, Division Of Exten-
sion, University Of Tennessee)
An important line of work has been
taken up by county agents in assisting
the farmers to a method Of Analysing
their farm business. In this way farm
Ing is being studied from practical
standpoint, and systematic records are
being made on a large number of
farms.
In Dawes county, Nebraska, for in.
stance, records were secured with IS
farmers. The highest amount which
any farmer received for his labor after
deducting all working expenses, de.
probation on buildings and machin-
cry, and interest at per cent on his
capital was $S,043. mother farmer
In the same neighborhood lost $1,000.
The ten best farms gave a profit Of
$a,415 each, while the poorest ten
showed loss Of s6l.
Why did some OF these farmers
make profit while neighbors, under
the same conditions, lost money?
Record keeping is necessary IL one
Is to become really good farmer.

USE TILE TO DRAIN LAND
AND MAKE MORE MONEY

division Of Extension, University OF
Tepnessee)
There are thousands of acres in
Tennessee which, II drained, would
make excellent farms, In some sec.
tions we are farming only the poorer
upland, leaving the best land idle year
after year because it is too wet to pro-
duce good crops.
Land may be drained either by
means OF open bitches or tile. Tile
drainage Is the more satisfactory be-
cause it Is more permanent and is not
In the way in cultivating crops. Much
valuable space Is taken up by open
bitches II they are allowed to grow up
in grass and bushes, and it is often
necessary to allow them to grow up,
as otherwise they would spread over
too much ground.
What is the Division Of Exten-
sion?" is occasionally asked. The Di-
vision OF Extension of the College Of
Agriculture Of the University of Ten
nessee, Knoxville, is the mouthpiece
of the u. S. Department of Agricul-
ture in Tennessee, Of the State Col
lege of Agriculture, and of other co.
operating organizations. Agricultural
Headquarters someone has said, and
that carries the idea. The Division of
Extension is for the use OF the farm
ers and their families.

A PLAIN STEER IS A
PLAIN STEER ALWAYS

tBy C. D. Lowe, Live Stock Specialist.
Division OF Extension, University Of

We often hear men complain be-
cause some cattle buyer will not pay
them the top of the market for their
steers.
Many times the reason Is because
lfeir steers are not top steers Some
times. on account of price differences
or other things, 1t pays to feed or
grace plain cattle, and many poorly
bred animal is improved great deal
M the addition of flesh. 1t is we'll to
remember, however, that flesh will
never make good steer Of one that
lacks quality by inheritance.
tt matters little in what condition
well-bred, typey steer is presented
10 the buying public, for he will find a
eood market at most any time, thin or
fat for the feed-lot pasture or the
hlcck. On the other hand, the scrub
must always be cheap one, no mat

TENNESSEE A LEADER
IN LIVE STOCK

Tennessee Is a leader in live stock
production If the international Live
Stock Exposition held at Chicago late
In 1916 is any criterion. In fact, for
the number OF animals exhibited, Ten
nessee and the southeast drew down
more prizes than any other one sec
of the country.
Some Of the more notable winnings
we're made by the Lespedeza Farm
Shortherns, and the Ames Plantation
Angus. The former re.
ceived the senior female championship
on the COW Fair Gift, and4he latter
got first on aged bulls with their great
Black Poe and the junior champion
ship on their heifer Black Bird Per-
fectien 6thp
Each establishment won many addi-
tional prizes, all OF which only goes TO
show that Tennessee not only equals
but excels In live stock production
when once she gets a elauce.

Farm Equipment Is Not Com

MOST LEGuMEs NEED LIME
THE Method Of Making a Lime
Sprsader Can be Adapted To Any
Tennessee Farm-Its Use Will Make
More Crops Grow.

(By ]. c. McAmis, Division Of Exten'
sion, University OF Tennessee, Knox
yille.)
One may we'll think now about the
farm equipment for the next year
Lime distributors should be made q
part OF this equipment, and if you de-
eide to buy or make one you will want
to do 80 early.
The best distributor is the regular
two-horse machine, which is eight feet
wide, holds ten bushels OF limestone,
and costs $40 retail. Where four or
five or more men club together and
buy one of these machines, they are
not so very expensive.
Where only small part of lime is
to be put out, the one-horse distrib-
utor, which does the work about half
as fast as the two-horse apreader, is
very satisfactory. This model costs
about SIS retail.
