NoTEs FRoM TIPTON


Mrs. Lille Cole. wife Of Walter
Cole, died at her home in this vicinity
last Sunday morning at 8 o'clock and
was buFiedst the following evening at
Bethel. She leaves a husband and
four children. The youngest Is an
infant only few weeks old.
G, A. Hill has bought a car and is
going to drive some.
g. D. McNair and family spent
last Sunday at overton park in Mem
phis.
"A. B. Clements, Of Upton, has sold
his residence and storehouse to Esq.
]. d. Beaver, of Beaver. Some people
may think Mr.. Clements is making
preparations to 60 to the war. If he
is, somebody will sure be fooled.
Farmers are hard at work this hot
weather. They all have their corn in
good condition, It is somewhat late,
but the prospect is encouraging. The
cotton crop is very poor just now.
The plant is very small and the stalk
is red and hard and the most of it is
badly in grass and weeds. There is
considerable cotton that has not had
anything done to it since it was plant
ed. The farmers seemed to take the
same view Of the situation, and that
was they would need corn. AS soon
as the ground got dry enough to work
after the last rain they went to work
in their corn and kept at it until they
put it in good condition, and the pros
poets now appear that they will be
well remunerated for their labor.
Mr.. ]. S. Primers letter from
Washington was read with interest,
but would say that it is an object of
criticism. He says that when he Wis
tied the U. S. treasury department
the guard at the building told him
there were $4,000 people employed
there. 10000 people is certainly quite
a lot of people in one place. The fol-
lowing figures are only approxima-
tions: 1t would take about six acres
of ground for them to stand on, al
lowing one square yard to each per-
son. If they were formed into a
double file battle line, II would make
a line more than five miles long. Then
if all these people had to go through
the same gate or doorway according
to ordinary army marching it would
take them about four hours to get
into the building and get to their re-
spective places. And yet the hard
part of it has not come. These 3d.
600 people must be paid for their
services while in the building and for
four hours time in getting into it and
like length of time in getting out
Of it. 1t will certainly take at least
100000 a day to pay them. Now, if
somebody is not careful, some fool
will say the Old Uncle is entirely too
extravagant. THREE FIGHTS.

AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTS

For more reasons than one this
should be a banner year in the de-
partment devoted to products Of field,
orchard and garden. The "back to
the land" movement has taken stout
hold on the popular fancy and the
"man with the hoe" is very much in
evidence. Thousands of new gardens
over the state will contribute their
quota to swell the farmers annual
output, and with a favorable crop
growing season the sum total of effort
will be staggering in immensely. Ten
nessee agricultural resources are linn
itless. The people of the state don't
know just what can be done in the
way of production, for they have
never been called on for genuine
test. But this year, under the spur
of worldwide appeal for foodstuffs
and the stimulus Of sensational pric-
es, superlative effort will be made
to deliver an unusual harvest. All
this will be reflected in the exhibits
at the Tennessee state fair. They
will be on bigger scale and in great
er variety and profusion. Already
of counties have started ar
rangements to compete IN the county
exhibit department and big show in
that line is assured. The department
devoted to individual farm exhibits
may also be looked to for a new rec
ord this year, as well as that embrace
ing county and community exhibits.

PRIMARY ELECTION TO
NOMINATE CANDIDATE

Dyersburg, Tenn, June 22.-J. N.
Parker, chairman, and A. 0. Durham,
secretary Of the Democratic executive
committee of the Ninth chancery divi-
sion, composed of the counties of
Weakley, Obion, Lake, Dyer, Lauder
dale, Upton, Fayette, Haywood and
Gibson, have issued call for a pri-
mary election to be held in each of
the counties on the 18th Of July for
the purpose of nominating a Demo-
cratic candidate for chancellor. The
nominee will be voted on at the regu-
lar August election in 1918. There are
two candidates for chancellor, Maj.

passed within which candidates were
allowed to qualify, and no one else
