Peas in Every Garden

No early spring vegetable is
more delicious than the English
pea. Peas require rich, well
drained soil, seasonable rains, and
much hoeing for best results.
They are cool weather plants, and
late varie ties do not succeed in
Tennessee. If planted early and
given high tillage no vegetable
pays the amateur gardener bet
ter. For small gardens the
dwarf varieties are more con-
viently grown, because the tall
forms require a trellis of brush
or string, but the tall growers
give the largest crops.
Peas have the best flavor and
are most tender when not quite
full grown. They should be used
always before the pods harden
and change color. M

Eggs intended for Matching
purposes should be gathered al
least twice a day, should be hand
led carefully to avoid cracking,
should be turned daily, and
should be kept in a cool, dry
room, preferably in the dark,
where the flies will not have ac-
cess to them. Only normal eggs
should be set. Normal eggs are
eggs eff uniform size, with a nice
smooth surface. If.setting eggs
from the brown-shelled variety,
it is, natural to believe that the
color of the egg set, the more
uniform will be the color of the
eggs produced by the pnllets
hatched from these eggs. When
setting eggs from the white-egg
variety, one shodld use only the
chalk-white eggs.
Eggs may be kept two or
three weeks before setting, if
tunsd daily and kept under pro-
per care.

would mean more cooperation
and because it would mean less
fodder pulling. Corn shredders
stump pullers. pea and bean har-
vesters. should also be bought
on the cooperative plan. We
must keep emphasizing the fact
that the small farmer can't COM
pete with our large and wealthy
farmers unless this small farmer
uses improved machinery. AT
the same time, he can't afford to
buy complete equipment in farm
machinery for a farm of only so,
100 or 200 acres. Therefore CO.
operative purchase and use is the
only way out.-The Progressive

The common advice for grow
ing Stage crops is to plant the
corn unusually thick along with a
small amount of sorghum. 1t is
impossible to determine definite
ly the acreage which will be nee
essary to obtain given amount
of silage. If the season is un-
favorable it will take a larger
area: If very favorable it will
take a smaller area. There is
danger, in order to make sure of
a sufficient amount to fill a silo,
that there will be a surplus in a
favorable season. If the corn is
planted very thick it is difficult
to make use of the surplus in any
other way than for silage. There
fore, be sure to plant the silage
combination of corn and sorghum
in small enough amounts that it
can be usedfor filling the silo.
Plant part of the silage field in
corn alone at such a rate of seed
ing that it will produce either
grain or silage.

Deep Soil For Corn.

One of the most important
factors in the production of crops
and one that determines. to a
very large degree, whether the
final yield is large or small, Is a
thoroughly and deeply prepared
seed bed. A well prepared seed
bed is required IN. order that
plenty of moisture: ana plant
food may be maintained for the
growing crop.
Plants send their roots to a
much greater depth whehs unob.
structed, and attain.mueh great
er length than is sometimes
thought. Unless the soil is
broken deeply. corn roots are
prevented from penetrating as
deeply as they should go in order
to get moisture and food. While
there if an abundance of rain al
present, we are apt to see co n
fields wilt for the want of water
before the close of the summer.

The FARMERS NDUST-
RIAL INSTITUTE CLOSES

The first term of the Farmers
industrial Institute came to
close Mar. %, 1917, and the com
mencement exercises carried out
by the Claxton Literary Society
was a great factor which proved
the success of the school in vari'
Gus ways.
The entertainment was eXcep'
tionally good and was attended
by a very large audience, how.
ever the inclemency of the wealth
er kept many away that would
have gone.
The school reached a maxium
enrolment of forty-three and
there was never more interest
taken, nor more patriotism intro
duced in a student body than was
had in the past term.
We have all the material ready
for a catalogue and just as soon
as we get them off the press we
will be more than pleased to
mail one to any one who might
wish for more information.
The school is located in one of
the best farming sections of
Middle Tennessee and a course of
study has been worked up that
will exactly meet the demands of
the Country Life Movement: one
that will put the rural boy and
girl on the right footing, as well
as educating them equal to the
city boy who has all kinds of op-
portunities for an education.
The school intends to present
the industrial side of education,
however it includes all grades
from the first to the twelfth to-
gether with from one to three
years work in agriculture with
full demonstration work.
We earnestly solicit the coop
Grafton Of every Community
Worker.
What will your boy be doing
tomorrow?
Are you educating him to the
problem that will confront him,
that of Rural Community Pro-
gress?
All the boys and girls who
might wish for good practical
education should ask for our lita-
ture and read our plan.
We like to help those who
will help themselves.
Those who are seeking a good
time should go somewhere else.
We want WORKERS.

CONGRESS DECLARES

4th by a vote of 80 to 6. On A

The text of the resolution fol-
lows:
Whereas. The Imperial Ger

the United States of America,
therefore be it

medicine to produce results. !

the benefits they have derived
from its use.
'Tanlac is simply the talk of
my town. I have no hasitancy
in recommending the medicine;
and as a matter of fact, l am
prescribing it for my patients al
most every day.
Only a few days ago a we'll
known woman of Fayetteville
came to me and told me about
the remarkable relief her daugh-
ter had gained from the use of
this medicine. She had been
confined to her bed for three
years with what had been pro-
nounced pellegra, and that after
using Tanlac for a short time she
was able to be about. and was on
the road to recovery.
But this is only one instance.
People in all walks of life in and
around our little city are giving
similar Endorsements to the med.
icine. Seldom a day passes tnat
someone does not come to me and
say something about the good re-
suits they are getting from the
use of Tanlac.
Several unusual gains in weight
have been reported by some of
our most prominent people, and

cases of indigestion, catarrhal
conditions, and organic disorders
and secured splendid results
