A COUNTY THAT is
..-...s BOOSTING ITSELF
Sees In Fully-Developed Farm Life
the Permanent Prosperity
II Desires.
(By Harry B. Potter, Division of Elk
tension, University of Tennessee,
Knoxville.)

(By Harry B. Potter, Division of Elk
tension, University of Tennessee,
Knoxville.)
The boil weevil hit some counties in
West Tennessee pretty hard this year
Those who work with cotton all of the
time say that the boil weevil will come
next year harder than 1t did this year
That is history.
Every part of Tennessee has its boil
weevil--some evil that comes when
the one-crop system of farming is fol-
lowed. It may be weed pest, and
again 1t may be some insect But evil
follows system of farming that tears
down the land.
West Tennessee presents to us
county that is coming back, that is
building for the future. An active mer
chant of that county, seeing that on
farm prosperity depends his prosperity,
says some things in full-page adver-
tisement in the county papers that, If
looked at in the light of conditions in
any county in Tennessee, may be ap-
piled by every reader Of this column.
The page is headed "Hardeman Coun.
ty On Top" And then the page goes
on to say:
Experience is the best teacher, but
are we going to sit idly by and get this
experience, or are we going to take
advantage of the other fellows expe-
rience?
What To Do-Study the weevil, get
bulletins concerning the weevil and in
form yourself what is the very best
thing to do. We have few bulletins
and will have more. Ask for them or
write the College of Agriculture, Knox
Vile. Tennessee, or Department Of
Agriculture, Washington, D. c.
What To Do Now-Disk your cot
ton stalks Immediately and turn them
under completely. Sow wheat as a
soil protection and for a money crop
next year. Destroy the winter home
of the weevil by burning weeds along
roadside, ditch banks, fence rows, in
thickets and around stumps.
What To Do Later-With the boil
weevil to fight, you can not successful
ly grow as large acreage of cotton as
before. Prepare to substitute other
crops for some Of cotton next year.
Produce on your farm what you eat,
and some to sell the town fellow.
Have good garden, by all means.
Get start in live stock, poultry, hogs,
sheep, goats and cattle.
Stock Raising--Hardeman County
is naturally stock-raising county, be-
ing providentially blessed with fine
pastures and streams for watering pur-
poses. However, we are getting too
many different breeds OF cattle and
hogs. We should select the best all.
round hog and best breed OF cattle,
both for beef and milchers. In doing
this we will enhance the value of our
stock and increase our selling power,
as cars loaded with the same breed a.
ways bring more on the market"

they Must 0bserveSeveraIC Com
mon, Everyday Rules to
Protect Themselves
ALL GIRLS SHOULD Be STRONG
Health Specialist of the Division of
Extension of the University of Ten
nessee, Knoxville, Sends Out Special
Letter-Also Puts Out General
Health Bulletin.

Have you tried sleeping with your
windows up, remembering the value of
pure, fresh air?" is one question Mrs.
Lena Warner, health specialist of the
Division of Extension, University of
Tennessee, Knoxville, asks in a letter
sent especially to the canning club
girls of Tennessee. She then gives sew
eral very well-known laws of health
which so few follow as they should.
II want to compliment the club girls
on their good Judgment concerning
their feet" she continues.
Nov, let us have word to say about
clothes. First, the majority wear the
sensible low-heel shoe, which enables
them to walk well and at the same
time protects the nerve ceDters of the
body
by all means see that your shoes
are comfortable in length and breadth.
Do not depend upon any one but your
self to decide this. If you will remem-
Der to keep your feet dry and legs
warm, many aches and pains will be
avoided that young girls of our age
are apt to have. The same advice l
would give you in regard to the whole
body, especially in winter AS you
want outdoor life during these months,
you must be prepared. Heavy clothing
is not at all desirable. If your clothing
is too tight, you will not get warmth
from it. Select your underwear with
little wool in it, See that the vests
have long sleeves. Avoid dressing too
warmly for indoors and always have
an extra wrap for outdoors. Sitting.
scantily clothed, in damp skirts and
wet shoes, has brought death to many
young girl. In this way many catch
colds, develop pneumonia, tuberculosis
| and other serious illnesses.
Zone thing, girls, we are quite CRATE
full for, and that is that Dame Fashion
has decreed we shall not draw in the
| waist You not only have better fig
| ures, more graceful carriage, but the
organs inside the abdomen and pelvis
retain their normal position. / do not
now consider corsets harmful, for their
chief use is to give the skirts the
| proper hang.
"By all means, remember the teeth.
| To keep them clean is first essential.
A pinch of common table salt or cook
ing soda is very good to use with the
| tooth brush daily. Don't be afraid of
| the dentist. He is faithful friend.
Pay him visit at least twice year.
| Most diseases are preventable
through cleanliness. II we observe
the simple health laws, even when we
come in contact with filthy diseases,
we are not apt to contract them.
LAST, but not least, know and be
true to yourself. Learn the great les
son of self-control. Cultivate desire
for knowledge. Keep the mind and
body pure and clean"
Mrs. Warner has written a publica.
ton which is sent free to residents OF
Tennessee. This publication is called
what To Do To Keep Well" II you
