Kind editor and readers:
As it is still misting rain, foggy
and muddy out doors. and am forced
to stay indoors on account Of my puny
condition, and this being Sunday. and
here all alone and lonesome, thought
would step in and tell little Of
what have seen and heard since my
last lettel.
One very sad occurrence, which
brought our hearts to grief happened
last week.. The sad intelligence came
to the valley last Monday that Aunt
Mary Jane Parmley, of Coalmont, was
dead. She died at her home in Coal
mont last Saturday night, and the in
tention was to bring her to tho valley
for burial Monday, but owing to the
rain, snow and sleet, her remains
were kept in state until Tuesday. She
was brought thru in wagon. and in
tered in the Lasater graveyard by the
side of her husband, Silas r. Parm-
lev, who preceded her some two or
three years. Mrs. Parmley was an
aunt by marriage to ye writer and he
feels sad to chronicle the sad. d.event.
Messrs. Burg aud Tom Parmley. Of
Tracy City. were in to attend the
funeral of their aunt, and paid ye
writer short but very pleasant visit,
They are own cousins to Mrs. Moore,
and their visits are always highly ap-
preciateh. Come again. boys, as we
are always glad to see you.
The old stork passed over one night
last week and left bouncing big boy
of the home of Mr.. and Mrs. Ben
Parker, but the sad part of the oc-
curreuce was it died during or i'm
mediately after its advent into this
world. We are always very sorry to
think of thu abrupt change in the
fond snticipations of an anxious moth
er under such circumstances.
Well, we saw in the last weeks Is
sue of the News that our cousin and
friend, Hugh Rankin, Of Whitwell'
has taken unto himself a new COOK.
We are sure glad to hear the news, az
Hugh was without cook, and has
two very promising little boys to looh
after. and he sure needed some one tc
help him, as we think that his ctoict
| as a helpmate is excellent.
Ye writer went to Jasper few
days ago, met and mingled with sew
eral of his old friends and acquaint
ances. We had occasion to call IN
and transact some business with oul
attorney friend. L. R Darr, anc

TO STOP CHOLERA
PUBLIC CAN HELP
DR., NJ. Jacob, State Veterinar-
ian, Tells Of State Wide
Educational Campaign.

"To anyone interested inA or identi-
fed with live stock sanitary control
work, it is apparent that success in
the control and eradication Of trans
Faissable diseases depends in great
measure on intelligent public coopera-
tion. This is especially true with dis
eases that. are wide spread, and of
which hog cholera furnishes most
excellent example,, said DR.. NJ. ia
cob, State Veterinarian, when inter
viewed on this question.
"In those communities where we
have been able to develop deep inter.
est and an iutelligent appreciation Of
the true nature of hog cholera, most
excellent progress is being made and
the losses materially lessened. For
the past year or more we have carried
on an educational campaign, princi-
pally in the form of public meetings
and demonstrations, carrying the
work into those sections where 1t ap
reared to be most needed. The results
Of these meetings we're so apparent
that we decided to strengthen our plan
in such way, SO that it could be
carried into all parts of the State as
quickly as possible under the most ad-
vantageous conditions.
''To do this an agreement has re-
Gently been perfected between the IN
tied States Bureau of Animal Indus
try. the Division of Extension of the
College of Agriculture, University OF
Tennessee, and the State Department
of Agriculture, as the three coopera-
ting forces to carry on hog cholera
educational campaign to be immedi-
ately directed from the office OF the
State Veterinarian. By this arrange
mept two veterinarians are devoting
their entire time to hog cholera,
namely: DR.. ROBBERY Jay. who, repre-
sents the United States Bureau OF An
imal Industry as a'hog cholera special
ist. and DR.. G. Dillon White, who be-
came associated with the State De-
partment of Agriculture during the
mast year as assistant in Hog Cholera
Control. 1t is our present purpose to
carry this work into every county IN
the state during the next twelve
months, and will consist OF lectures
ani demonstrations, which under
propsr conditions, will be supplement-
sl with stereopticon views.
"In those counties having Farm
Demonstration Agents, working under
the Division of Extension, all arrange
ments for the holding of educational
hog cholera meetings will be MADE
through them. Where there are nc
County Agents the meetings will be
arranged through other actively inter
ested channels, such as progressive
farmers, commercial bodies, banking
institutions, merchants, etc. Every
phase of hog cholera will be owen
upon. but laying unusual stress on
how to PREVENT. CONTROL and
ERADICATE this disease on given
farm or community.
"We are exceedingly optimistic re
gar1ing the future OF this work
which car be retarded only by lacf
Of cooperation on the part of the va
rjous forces interested in the conser
walton and development OF our llv'
stock industry"
