JUSTICES OF FIFTH.

1t is exceedingly gratifying to the
progressive farmers of the Fifth dis
trict, who appreciate the inestimable
value off, the experiment station to
know that both justices from that dis
trict supported and are supporting the
location of the station in Maury cOun-
ty. The Fifth is one of the districts that
cast solid vote for the station. It's
members, while not always in accord
with The Herald, are generally to be
found on the progressive side of every
issue. Both Messrs. Denton and Nc
Ribbon, can be trusted, wherever the
public education interests are in
volved, to stand for progress. In vot-
ing for the station they have met the
expectations of those who realize that
Anticipated methods can no longer
prevail if the county is to measure
up to it's opportunities. They have
both in this as in other matters rem
dered valuable service to the county
as members of the quarterly court.

its $1,000, but by having the station
here will get direct return OF three
dollars for one expended.
This is one of the smaller Items
however, to be urged in behalf OF the
station. Its location in this county
will add immensely to the selling val
ue of all farm lands. 1t will add 10
the market value of all of the first
class agricultural products of the
county. 1t will attract pew home
seekers, men of means and ability
and there will be more we'll titled
small farms and fewer big, unwieldy
farms tended by tenants. This will
mean better churches, better schools
and better roads. 1t will mean a
higher and better rural life. 1t will
mean more culture and more patriot
ISM
Already one progressive farmer has
come to this county and purchased a
farm as the result of the states loca-
ton of the station here. Others will
follow suit. Ten years from now, if
the station is located in Maury coun-
ty, the man who opposed it will be
ashamed to admit that he was SO
short-sighted and unprogressive, so
lacking in patriotism.
There is but one argument to be
made against the station. That same
argument applies against public
schools, against asylums for the un.
fortunates and the helpless, against
better roads, against decent jai!s,
against the fair and impartial execu'
ton of the law. All Of those blessings
cost the taxpayers some money and
the experiment station must be paid
for. That is the sole and only argu'
ment to be made against it. Nothing
in this world worth having can be
had without some cost. Surely the
patriotic people of Maury county will
not turn backward the wheels of prog.
ress because to go forward will cost
a few paltry dollars.

s,,s,NEss PROPOSITION.

Aside from the great b5nefits TO
acrrue to the future agricultural in
1erests of the county through the lcca-
aion of the Middle Tennessee Expert
ment station in Maury county, as
plain business proposition of dollars
and cents the county court cannot
hesitate to accept the station. Espe-
a.ially is this true after having unan-
pmously made a substantial offer to
she state for its location here.
By the terms of the act OF 1917
creating the Middle Tennessee Expert
ment station a special tax of five
cents on the 800 of taxable property
is levied for the use and benefit OF the
University of Tennessee. Under the
provisions of this act this county will
next year contribute $500 to the sup
Fort of higher education for the boys
and girls of the state. Now the court
has an opportunity to keep this s7,5Oo

more. IL the Middle Tennessee sta
lion is located in Maury county, I'M
der the terms of this same act $4,000
Der annum will be expended by the
state for its maintenance.
In addition to this $4,000 per an
nus, the station will probably expend
an additional $4,000 derived from the
sale OF its products, making a cash
expenditure Of $4,000 per annum in
she county directly in return for the

MAURY COUNTY FAIR.

The county fair in Maury has been
revived by the enterprising business
men of Mt. Pleasant, with the we'll
known manager, John p McGaw, in
the executive office. The support
that will be given the fair by the Mt.
Pleasant people, together with the re-
markable activity in all lines of agri-
culture and live stock should be a
guarantee of the success of the enter
prise Maury county ought to have
fair every year. Columbia is the
proper place for it to be held. But
if the Columbia people are not willing
to hold it, Mt. Pleasant should be en-
couraged in the undertaking. There
was time when the Maury county
fair was famous throughout the South
because of it's exceptionally fine ex
hibits of live stock and superior rae
ing.
. Aside from their commercial bene-
fits to the cities in which they are
held, fairs are builders of the national
wealth of the communities they repre-
sent. Human nature is such that one
will do better when competing with
an aggressive rival than when going
it alone with clear field.
I Some day Columbia may again get
behind big county fair that will be
a credit to Maury Then we shall
expect Mt. Pleasant and all other sec,
tons of the county to cooperate in
making it a success. But until then
the efforts of the Mt Pleasant men
should be encouraged by the support
of Columbia. Let's go to the fair and
make it what it should be as Maury
county institution.

BUYER IN CITY

Hunter Jones, representing the Mer-

was one of the bond buyers in Column
bia today to bid on the $4,000 coun-

His company is one of the largest

and buys, perhaps, more county bonds
than any other financial institution in

The Vampire.

This is the vampire: Always inert,
sitting still, spending five to seven
hours day looking out the window
on the street. Nothing to give, and al
ways giving it. Seeking amusement,
entertainment, but never affording any.
Taking, but never giving. Sitting
quietly and listening to others con-
verse and confer, even when her pres
ence is unwelcome, but saying nothing
but an occasional yes or no. Primitive
minded and narrow. with nothing to
give, she drains others Of ideas with
out retaining them-like a sieve.
Thought passes through and beyond
her without stopping. She acquires
nothing, gives nothing, takes every
thing. One person alone with her be-
comes exhausted while she is revivi-
fied.-New York Globe.

WASHINGTON VOTED
DRY BY U. S. SENATE
Bill Prohibits Sale of Liquor
in District Of Columbia.

WASHINGTON = The Sheppard
bill to abolish saloons in the national
capitol after Nov. 1, 1917, was passed
by the senate and now goes to the
house, where it's friends claim it is
assured of passage. The vote in the
senate was So to 80.
While the measure prohibits the sale
of liquor in the District of Columbia,
it permits importation for personal
use. An amendment which would have
submitted the proposal to a referen-
dunn of citizens of the district was de-
feated just before passage by a tie
vote, 43 to 43.

Rumors have reached Washington
that there is a probability of Lord
Rosebery succeeding Sir Cecil Spring
Rice as British ambassador to the
United States at an early date. Lord
Rosebery is credited with having in
his youth wanted to accomplish three
things-to take double first at Ok
ford, to marry the richest woman in
England and to be prime minister. All
these came to pass. His wife, now
dead, was a daughter of Baron Meyer
de Rothschild.

Gathering Food for Bees.

A clever scheme, that appears to
have originated in Scotland, is to
gather pollen from flowers with a
vacuum cleaner for use as food for
bees. The heather on wide stretches
Of moors provides ample supplies, and

young bees were mostly reared on this
pollen.

Steel'H PrOEreas.

In 1914 the gross operating reve-
nues OF the United States Steel Cor
poration were S55s.414933, the poor
est showing in any year in its his
tory. In 1916 gross operating reve
nues were 81 ,23l .4T3,1T9, the greatest
in its history and far in excess of the
outstanding common and preferred
capitalization Of SS6s, 1888, 600. And
at the current rate of expansion in
earnings gross operating revenues in
Iel1 may equal the entire capital
stock and and the funded debts OF
the corporation and its subsidiaries,
which amount to S1.54s .OOO. 900. Net
operating revenues in 1914 were
S63, ,s24.2 .246, and in 1916 they were
S36s, AL .T0S. with net income avail
able for dividends OF S23.496, ,i6s, in
1914 and $271 .63l.73 in 1916. In 1914
the corporation paid In dividends
$40. .46S, ,T52. leaving a deficit OF $l6,
971,9s4. In 1916 almost $7O.OO0,OO0
was distributed TO the stockholders,
leaving q surplus of more than $780,
100000. That Is progress unexam-
pied, progress that even the older
Morgan would not have believed pos
sible. II Is not surprising that the
big men of Wall Street accumulated
large lines of Steel shares in the
December break and are still hold
ing them.
