NO TENNESSEAN
WILL FAIL NOW
Every Person Has Something
to Do to Help United
States Win
PRODUCE more, CONSUME LESS
Each County viii Be Organized in
Committees and Each County VIII
Be Helping the State Do Its Part as
Requested Ry President Wilson.

In every county in Tennessee this
year men and women will be organized
to do what they can do to feed them
selves and to have a surplus for the
fighting armies.
Every county will have a FOOD
| SUPPLY COMMITTEE, headed by a
competent chairman The business OF
this committee is important. There
will, perhaps, be five subcommittee;
the chairman of the Food Supply Com
mittee is responsible for what the
chairmen of the subcommittee do.
What can they do? Each county pre-
sents problems. Here are some sug-
gestions for action:
1. Farm Production Increase Com
mittee.

PRACTICE BUSINESS ECONOMY.

Do not use the beef bull until he is
twelve, or better, Is months old. He
should be limited to twenty females
during the first year of service, and
should not be allowed over forty an.
nually until he is three years old.
Under no circumstances should he
be permitted to run with the herd.
Bulls handled right will usually last
to give eight to twelve years service,
while under the careless method the
breeding life is two or three years. y
1t is merely matter of practicing
business economy in cattle breeding

Care of Farm Tractors.

Spare parts of the gas tractor should
be kept on hand at all times. TO keep
the engine running is the main thing
in the harvest field. Going to town
for repairs takes time which can be
avoided by having spare parts at hand.
Spare parts Of pieces which wear the
most should be carried with the tractor
in order to save time in replacing
parts. Cylinder oil for the gas engine
must be Of the best quality and high
est grade to get the best result from
the tractor. A cheap low grade OF
oil will cause frequent stops and de-
lays and will seriously interfere with
the efficiency of the engine Overhaul
the tractor at least once week and
every three days if run continuously
day and night. To delay one day may
result in a broken part which will
take longer to repair than the time re-
quired for Overhauling the engine.

LET NE WALK WITH THE
MEN IN THE ROAD

'Tis only half truth the poet has sung
OF the house by the side of the
way"
Our Master had neither house nor q
home,
But he walked with the crowd day
by day
And think, when l read of the poets
desire,
That house by the road would be
good;
But service is found in its tenderest
When we walkwith the crowd In the
road.
So say, let me walk with the men in
the road,
Let me seek out the burdens that
crush,
Let me speak kind word of good
cheer to the weak
Who are falling behind in the rush.
There are wounds to be healed, there
are breaks we must mend,
There's cup of cold water to give
And the man in the road by the side
of his friend
Is the man who has learned to live.
Then tell me no more of the house by
the road;
There is only one place can live.
It's there with the~men who are toiling
along,
Who are needing the cheer can
give.
1t is pleasant to live in the house by
the way
And be friend, as the poet has
said;
But the Master is bidding us, Bear ye
their load,
For your rest waiteth yonder ahead"
l could not remain in the house by the
And watch as the toilers go on,
Their faces beclouded with pain and
with sin,
So burdened, their strength nearly
gone.
I'll go to their side, I'll speak in good
cheer,
I'll help them to carry their load;
And I'll smile at the man in the house
by the way,
AS walk with the crowd in the road.
Out there in the road that goes by the
house,
Where the poet is singing his song,
I'll walk and I'll work midst the heat
of the day,
And I'll help falling brothers along
Too busy to live in the house by the
way,
Too happy for such an abode.
And my heart sings its praise to the
Master Of all,
Who is helping me serve in the road.

DEHOaNING CALVES.
Growth of Horns Can Easily Be Pre-
vented by Proper Treatment.

vented by Proper Treatment.
Prepared by United States department Of
agricultural
In the average dairy it is better that
COWS be without horns, as the danger
Of their hooking gne another is thus
prevented. Only in pure bred herds,
where the appearance of the herd is
considered important from a show or
sale point of view, is there any justi-
ticatiOn for allowing horns to grow.
1t is much easier to prevent the growth
OF horns than to remove them.
The points that ultimately will de-
VeloD into horns can be felt as small
buttons embedded in the skin The
prevention is most effective if the treat
ment is applied when the buttons are
just large enough to be felt, which is
usually between the third and the sew
enth days.
To prevent their development the
hair should be removed from the horn
buttons. A stick Of caustic potash or
soda, wrapped in paper to. protect the
hands of the operator, is then moisten-
ed with water and rubbed on each
horn button two or three times, allow
Ing the caustic to dry after each APP
plication. Care should be taken to
apply the caustic, which should not be
too moist, to the buttons only, for If
it touches the surrounding skin it will
cause unnecessary pain. Immediately
after the application the calf also
should be protected from rain, in orr
der to prevent the caustic from spread
ing.
II the operation is carefully perform
cd the horns viii make no growth. If
scurs or horn groWtbs appear it is an
indication that the caustic was not
properly applied.

ART SHAFER NAILS
COMEBACK" RUMOR

Reports from Los Angeles have it
that Art Shafer is forced once more to
deny the report published some time
ago that he would return to play with
the New York Giants.
I'm through with baseball" declares
Shafer, and don't know who started
the report that l was going back to
the Giants. When 1 quit baseball three
years ago. quit for good. and I'm not
going back to New York"
1t is known that Manager Muggsy
McGraw is after Shafer to play with
the Giants next season, but Shafer's
denial puts to rout all the reports that
he would come East to play ball
Il did not see McGraw while in the
East" continued Shafer, "and 1 don't
know whether or not he was after me
to go back into baseball. I did not see
any baseball men in the East and
don't know where the report started.
My honest opinion is that he is not
after me, for 1 told him when I quit
the club that was through with base
ball for good and wouldn't on any con-
sideration go back into baseball"
II Shafer should decide to come East
with the Giants McGraw's chances of
coping the National League pennant
would increase, for Shafer would be a
great help to the club. However, the
chances are mighty slim of Shafer
coming East.

WET and DRY FORCES
BUSY AMONG SOLONS
Activity of Lobbyists Brings Complaint
from Senators.

In the Capitol corridors and in Con-
gressional offices yesterday. advocates Of
saloonless capital and the opponents
OF a dry city, devoted much of their time
to sounding out"
Some Of the dry forces were 20 earnest
in their buttonholing of Senator's that
warnings were issued by the Capitol po-
planned about their activities In the cor
ridors.
Summed up. the result of the impromptu
conferences tended to show:
]. That there is a majority Of the House
District Committee against prohibition
for the District.
2. That the Rules Committee Is pre-
pared to bring out special rule to make
the Sheppard bill in order should an ef-
fort be made to sidetrack it.
s. That the efforts of the liquor forces
Will now be centered on having the refer
endum attached to the measure.
4. That the sentiment of majority In
the House favors the Sheppard bill and 1t
will be passed II II comes to a vote.
5. That opponents of the measure yes
terday discussed the Inauguration of a
prolonged flibuster IL an attempt is made
to force 1t through at the present ses-
sion.
1t seems certain that the District COM
mittee will call up the Sheppard bill
for a hearing directly after the hearing
on the telephone bill is concluded. That
will bring the measure up for debate and
a vote in the House before the ad-
tournment of the present session.
Perusal of the bill yesterday disclosed
that the Senate had inadvertently left
a clause in the bill which states the
act shall be in full force and effect.
November l, 1916. That is the wording OF
the bill as it reached the House.
The defect means that it will have
to be amended by the House and No
vember l, 1917. substituted. Such an
amendment would bring the bill back to
the Senate for agreement to the House
amendment and offer an opportunity for
a Senate filibuster by opponents of the
measure.
License holders are confident that the
bill will meet an executive veto II 1t
reached the White House without the
referendum attached. The only apparent
reason for this belief is an opinion ex-
pressed Informally by President Wilson
in a letter of three years ago that on
questions such asthis, the people affected
should be given the opportunity to decide.
