Expect Results From The Soil

Now that increased production
is 50 important from the Nation
al point Of view, and 50 desirable
from the personal point of view,
it behoves every farmer to look
to the soil for results.
The soil has been compared tC
a bank in which a farmer may
or may not make deposits. Tc
keep the bank account where
personal checks will be honored
deposits Of money must be made,
To keep the soil account where
crops may grow and yield well,
deposits of fertilizer dnd lime and
manures and cloyers must be
made.
A letter addressed to the Divis-
ion of EXtention, University Of
Tennessee, Knoxville, will bring
to you information as to the
needs of your soil in actual
pounds of fertility. That is, if
you do not have that information
at hand yourself.
If you do not know what your
soil needs, come as near to get
ting just the right thingsand the
right amounts as you possibly
can.
Apply them and you may eX-
pect results from yonr soil.

REGISTRATION OF ALL WO-
men EXPECTED.
Opportunity Offered to Help
Win the War and Make
The World Safe for Dem
OCraCy.

: 1t is expected that every loyal
woman in Tennessee will register
on October 18th. To expect any
thing less would be a reflection
upon the patriotism of Tennes-
see.
The Council of National De-
fense which holds the registra-
ton was created by Act of Con-
gress and is the recognized and
authorized agency of the Govern
ment. lh
1t is true that the registration
is not legally compulsory and
those who fail to register will not
be put in Jail, but not for mo-
ment can we conceive of Ten
nesseans failing to respond to
the call of their country simply
because they are under no legal
penalty to do so.
1t may be pointed out that it
would not be impossible to COM
pei, by all the power of legal au-
thority, such registration as is
asked, if it should ever be deem
ed necessary to penalize the good
women of the country for failure
to respond to such demand,
That it was not deemed necessa-
ry if the highest tribute that
could have been paid to Ameri-
can womanhood. 1t is up to Ten
nessee women to show that the
tribute is not undeserved and
that in the Volunteer State the
women stand 100 per cent strong
for Uncle Sam in his effort to re-
gister the woman power of the
several states.
Many of the states that have
already held their registration
have set the standard high, but
certainly we can do as we'll if we
do our best. Every individual
every organization, every ele-
ment and influence for good is
expected to throw their best ef-
forts into the work. The respon-
sibility is a public responsibility
and every individual has his or
her share of it to bear. Men
should not forget that the wom-
en- are being taken quite serious
ly and should enter into the spir-
it of the task and lend to it their
best counsel and guidance.
Ministers of the gospel are ex-
pected to add their blessings to
the efforts and preach patriot
ism" until every woman whom
they can reach has been made to
see the moral obligation resting
upon them. Sunday preceding
October 18th is set aside and de-
dicated to the patriotic women
of the state and is to be especi-
ally observed as ''Woman's Re-
gisiration Sunday" Many min
listers may not have been reach
ed on account of incomplete mail
ing lists. but all are expected to
comply as fully as if especially
requested by letter.
The diverting from industry
and business of the thousands of
men needed for the army and ma
wv is already being felt through
out the country. There is to fol-
low a general shifting of men
and occupations, which together
with the curtahment of man. pow
er available for thgcivil pursuits
can be regarded ikho other light
than a serious problem calling fOr
the best thought of economists.
1t is therefore desired to register
the women of America over IL
years of age. classifying them as
