When the possibly harder times
than has ever been seen in this
country by the generations not old
enough to remember the war OF the
sixties in the last century, come. 1t
seems that all are going to fsre
alike--that the mere possession Of
money is not going to guarantee
plenty to some while others may
suffer. Even now, when -four, in
places, is worth SIS per barrel, and
corn $l.50 and more per bushel, the
purchase Of flour and sugar is linn
tied. In some Tennessee cities not
more than so cents to $1.00 worth
Of sugar Is allowed sold to a Gus
toner and not more than one sack

against food supply proposition
which is entirely new to the vast ma.
jority. The farmer who puts in all
possible cotton and does not heed
the request to plant food and feed
stuffs will do nothing to help relieve
the very serious situation

William Koneman, who was d.

to jamestown, Texas, and got rich.
Recently he advertised in his old
home town paper and found that
his wife, after three years, had d.

the Texas man did not do a thing
but send his former wife $4,000

even though he was only yard
master, but she was glad to Get the

GREAT MOVEMENT
! ON in NASHVILLE.

Five organizations in Nashville,
led by the Commercial Club, are
pushing the great work of oreaniz-
ing and mobilizing the Army Of
the Furrows"-which means that
hundreds Of boys and girls between
the ages of IL and 18 years, are be-
ing enlisted in the work Of cultivat-
ing hundreds of vacant lots within
the limits Of Nashville, for the pur-
pose of producing food for our coun-
try in the greatest crisis it has ever
known. The boys and girls will be
furnished the seeds to plant, the
tools with which to work, and the
ground will be prepared for them to
the extent Of being broken. 1t is
now a certainty that by this means
hundreds of acres will he cultivated
which would otherwise lie vacant
and useless. 1t is great work un-
dertaken by the Commercial Club,
the Rotary Club, the Engineers AS
Sociatian, the Board Of Education,
the Builders Association and the
knights Of Columbus - and the
work to be done by the Army in
the Burrows" will be even greater,
for it will be the making" Of many

ton Of much needed food.

planting and raising food and feed
products to protect the South. their
own State and perhaps their own
county from a possible shortage
which may mean almost starvation
for the poor next winter and per-

ers will force their negro tenants to
plant all cotton and to make no
home provision for foodstufs. Such
greedy, grasping, heartless men
show up miserably, contemptibly.

Taylor, formerly a resident Of Lin
den, then a citizen and postmaster
at Union City and, under Gov.
Hooper, Treasurer of the State Of
Tennessee. Tom is said to have a
fine farm in Mississippi, with many
tenants and he is not only allowing
but, so far as he can, compelling
each tenant, who is the head Of a
family, to plant sweet potatoes,
Irish potatoes and a general garden,
and is taking all possible steps to
make each tenant and family inde-.
pendent for next year in the i'm

This Is Really
Encouraging.


The wife who conscientiously ex.
ecutes her duties in the home is as
great q wealth producer as her
husband, according to Prof. B. E.
Andrews Of Columbia University.
A woman who takes care of the
home gives her husband many COM
forts that would cost him twice as
much to Oct anywhere else. The
time will soon come. he predicted,
when the housewives value will be
realized more fully. and many
wives now earning wages outside
the home will prefer to spend their
time in the home instead.

"OLD GLORY

Lexington had perhaps its first
public flag raising on Thursday
afternoon Of last week, when the
people Of the town to a consider
able number joined the forces ol
the High School and the City School
at three o'clock in public exercises
accompanying the raising of q
handsome United States flag on the
roof Of the school building, the flag
having been presented for the pur-
pose by Mrs. Amanda Taylor and
her daughtsr-in-law, Mrs. w. M
Taylor, Of Blytheville,, Ark, who,
with her children, have spent the
winter in Lexington.
The exercises weSea opened with
music by the Lexington Cornet

address on the flag by the Superin-
tendent Of the High School, Prof. ].
0. Brown, who in turn introduced
Mrs. J. A. Henry, who read a mag
nifcent tribute to the American
emblem Of liberty. Miss Faye

How We May
Grow More Cotton.

We must plant larger amount
Of clovers. beans. peas, wheat, rye,
barley and oats in order to secure
more feed to keep more and better
livestock SO that we may Oct ma
nure to grow bigger yields Of cotton
per acre. It requires about the
same amount Of labor to grow 500
pounds of cotton on poor land that
1t does to grow 1900 pounds on
manured soils that have grown the
clovers. beans and peas. We will
secure greater profits from fertiliz.
ers when we use the above means
Of growing cotton. Commercial fer
tilizers and better cultivation will
keep up the yields for awhile but at
at the same time our soils are be-
coming less fertile in fields that
grow cotton continually. The break
must come some day however
much natural fertility the soil
might have once had. After the re-
turns get less than the cost Of the
labor we rnust then allow nature to
take its course and rebuild the
land. That Is why we see so many
old fields all about us today. We
are just simply paying the price
for violating one Of natures laws.
Let us hope and work for more
and better cotton on fewer acres,
more livestock on better pastures.

VIII Move to ST. Petershurn

The many friends of Mr.. and Mrs
+. M. Osborne and children will learn
with great deal of regret that they
are planning moving to st. Peters
burg in the very near future.
Mr.. Osborne will engage in the in.
surance business in that city.
The Osborne family have made
their home in Ocala for the past ten
or twelve years or possibly longer
and it is with very sincere regret
that we have to record the fact that
they have decided to take I'D their
residence elsewhere. Their OcaIa
friends wish them every success in
their future home and will greatly
miss them here.
