George Brookhart, of teavine. was
called to NASHVILLE Monday to take
charge of the dairy exhibit of live
stock at the State FAIR. His work at
the Agricultural Department, Unlver-
s.ty of Tennessee, Knoxville, last year
placed him in such favorable position
that when inquiry was made OF the
department at Knoxville for capable
man to look after the dairy stock Mr..
Brookhart was at once named as cap
able and suitable man for the place and
he was summoned by wire to take
charge of the work.
Luther Evans was arrested yesterday
and tried before Esq. &. l.. Deatherage
under the charge of embeZZlement. 1t
seems that Evans was buying ties some
weeks ago for the Nashville Tie Com
pany and durinng the time he used $l01
belonging to the tie company for which
he made no showing. Esq. Deatherage
bound him to court under bond OF
81. 600, which he was unable to make
and he was placed in the county Jail.
Evans has been guilty OF several
crooked acts here lately, among other
things he gave checks that were worth
less. besides getting in debt for gro
ceries, etc., for which he did not pay.
In this issue appears the announce
ment of E. A. Smith, more famillIary
known by his friends as Duck"
Smith, as a candidate for sheriff. He
makes the race as republican and ex-
poets to abiGe by the action of the
party IN what ever manner it may de-
eide to select candidates. Mr.. Smith
has been before the public as deputy
sheriff under several sherlffs and has
won for himself considerable praise for
his ability in experimenting criminals.
He will make thorough canvass of
the county and present his claims III
person to the voters. He is so we'll
known to most OF the leading people |
over the county as to require no intro
iuctlon by US. He is willing to be
by his past record as an officer
and as a citizen and expects to cheer
fully abide by the decision OF the vot.
ars.

Use Dogs in War.

There are 10000 dogs in the service
of the humanitarians in the war, of
which the majority are German shep-
herd dogs. In war duties the German
shepherd dog works mainly at night,
after the heat and fury of the fray,
for obvious reasons. The wounded in
a daytime battle, left deserted for the
time among the dead by their COM
panions, If able to do so, seek what
protection they may find from the
shells and bullets. They seek the
shelter Of trees, rocks, hollows, or
what not, and after having with diff
Guilty gained such protection, they
often become unconscious. 1t is the
duty Of the trained dogs to locate
them and to see that help is extend
ed to them from the nearest ambu-
lance corps.

who have been weakened by the hard
ships of campaigning. There are at
present 100000 men IN the army at
tackled by this disease, of whom about
10000 have been sent back to their
homes. At least another 100000 will
come back from German prison camps
with the same i'll, and a great chain
of national sanitoriums is proposed to
deal with the plague. Two and a half
million francs have already been sub
scribed, and a program of work has been
drawn up which will involve the ex-
penditure Of many millions more.
In 1915 a yearly credit was opened by
the government which assures tubercu-
lous soldiers a certain amount Of as
sistance during the war, and at present
the administration has in hand four
million francs for this purpose. There
is also an arrangement which allows a
tuberculous soldier to have three
months treatment in a civil sanitori-
um at the expense OF the state before
he is discharged from the army
Before the war tuberculosis caused
ten per cent of the deaths in France
and was the cause of half the deaths
of persons who died between the ages
| of 20 and 40.

DRUNK ON CORDITE.
Women Munitions Workers Find New
Cause of EXhilaration.

LONDON, March l4.-Oificials of the
ministry of munitions have discovered
that good deal of the 4" drunkenness =
attributed to women and comparatively
young girls is due to another and hith-
erto unsupported cause.-The chewing of
cordite. the smokeless explosive used in
the she'll of cannon and the ammunition
of small arms. The explosive is being
used as sort of pick me-up' by the
tired munitions workers but its effect on
their health is very injurious and re.
medal measures are being taken hv the
authorities.
Cordite, when chewed, has all the ex-
hilarating effects Of highly stimulat-
ing drug and cannot be tempered with
except at great risk. Its effects on the
nervous system are Immediate and III
timately deadly. Besides, like all such
drugs, it has to be taken in increasing
quantities If the exhilaration is to be
maintained.
The effect of cordite as an 'intoxi-
cant was first discovered during the
South African war. Some British sol.
diers found to their surprise that by eat
ing corditc they could get all the ex-
element of the most powerful narcotic
and al the terrible effects, too
Cordie consists roughly of about -
parts of nitro glycerinc, 81 parts gun
cotton and five parts of mineral Jelly
Each cartridge contains 80 cylindrical
stands of cordite.
An official of the ministry of mum
tions experimental on himself by suck
ing q strand. He found that it TASTED
sweet, pleasant and pungent, but it re
suited in giving him the most racking
splitting headache. and il lasted TO
30 hours.

How the Plan Works Out in Other

The Windham County Farm bureau

Pig club TO be started this spring by
the Vermont National bank and the
farm bureau cooperating. The rules
are contained in the following state
ment Just issued:
The Vermont National bank Of Brat
tlcboro has very generously offered to
cooperate with the farm bureau in the
organizing of Windham County Pig
club for 1917. They offer to buy young
pigs for any boy or girl who will con,
from TO certain rules and give their
unsecured note promising TO pay cost
of pig in the fall when the pig is sold
The Windham County Farm bureau
viii have charge Of most of the details
in connection with securing and dis
tributing the pigs, and a list of "Sug
gestions in Caring for the Pig will be
given to each member.
The Vermont National bank also
offers prizes to be awarded on any Of
these pigs exhibited at the Valley fair
in september. The awards will be
based on rate of gain, cost of gain,
core and story. The Vermont State

prizes
Boys and girls should join the Wind
ham County Pig club because:
They will learn more about raising
pigs;
The dealing with the bank will be
valuable experience for them;
They will be eligible to compete for
several good prizes;
They will have a chance TO earn
some money.
In this connection the following from
the Weekly News Letter issued by the
United States department of aericul-
ture is of interest:
A number of banks in the South
which have found it profitable to help
farmers introduce better stock have
found that it is a good investment to
lend money 10 the boy and girl mem
bcrs of the pig clubs with which to
buy good young sows. This new move
ment TO encourage children to take an
interest in agriculture seems to have
started in Arkansas and has spread to
other states. IT is very active III
Georgia. where in 10 Of the II counties
in which the pig-club work is being
carried on the banks have offered to
lend money to junior members for the
purchase of purebred pigs. In other
counties wealthy residents, seeing the
advantage of the plan, are also assist
ing the children with loans.
In some instances the Endorsement
Of the member s parent or guardian is
required when loan is made, in others
no security is asked. In all of the
counties, however, each boy who bor-
rows is required to grow one acre of
corn so as to have abundant feed, have
/ some corn to sell, and pay off his OBJ
/ Ii gations. \ bank in Brooks county,
| Ga, last year loaned as high as $40
each 20 boys over their own signatures
without security, and III only a few in
stances did the borrowers ask for an
extension of time.
In one county wealthy man wanted
to do something for the worthy poor
boys, so he bought pure-bred gifts and
! loaned them to 20 boys. These boys
must join the pig club and do all that
is required by its rules This fall then
hogs must be bred and next spring two
gifts must be delivered to the owner
by each boy at weaving time. Wher
lHt boN , iiiNt NOlllplltNl with All lit ~
quirements the mother and remainde
of the litter become the property Of
the boy. The two gifts delivered By
the boys are i'll turn loaned to two NOR,
boys in the county who are require,
to do rs the first boys did This plal
is now i'll operation in two counties.
All of the breeders who offered I,
sell pure-bred pigs to members las
year NJ SO each have renewed their of
fer this year, and a few new names o
breeders have been added to the list o
those cooperating to place Georgia oil
a pure-bred basis. The state is devel
oping . new standard Of agriculture
due largely to the activity of the ju
venile farmer. This new agricuItur
} spells pure bred pigs and 100 bushel
Of corn TO the acre. Last year 800
, members OF corn clubs raised an aver
} age of IS bushels Of corn on an acr
, Of land, while the average yield Of cor
per acre in the whole state was uade
IS bushels. TIL pig club boys, in som
| instances, raised pork at 3 cents pc
pound.
