WE NEED MORE SEED

Every citizen of Tennessee to whom
has been carried the message of the
country in this hour when war is the
paramount issue is busy. Tennessee
is going to feed herself, is going to
help feed others, and is going to save
seed for next years planting.
In the mad rush to sell from the
farm whatever would bring high pric-
es, men and women of the state have
sold the seed that is needed for this
year. Soy beans, the red kidney
beans, legumes Of all kinds, and all
other seeds are scarce; expense is
keeping many farmers from doing
what they would otherwise do: they
can not afford to pay the exhorbitant
prices for these seeds.
May we not be found wanting when
another season rolls around,
But, this season, every county
should rise to meet the problems that
this war brings to it. We must plant
more of the crops that furnish food
for man, and we must plan for seed
for next years planting. Let the
counties organize to see that this is
done.

Now comes James G. Rice, the well
known Tennessee newspaper man.
with the statement that there are no
better greens than alfalfa greens. He
said that he first ran across this deli
ciOus dish three years ago in a Rich
mond, Va, hotel, and then a year ago
In a Jackson, Miss, hotel, and the
waiter said they had been serving
it regularly for the past eight years.
Mr.. Rice said when he was a Middle
Tennessee boy, never mind how long
ago this was, he used to see the col
ored folks 60 out in the pastures and
wood lots and gather all sorts of wild
greens and when they were cooked
they were, according to his testimony,
real palatable. Some of the favorites
in the list Of wild salads were hog
weed, or lambs quarters, wild mus
tard, tongue grass, polk stalks and
plantain. Mr.. Rice said he did not
fear that the United States would
ever run short Of food supplies, but If
the occasion did rise when people
must eat less meat and sweets the
fields and mountains would save the
people from starvation.

Now is good time to plant 90-day
corn, as we will more than probably
be in need of corn in 80 days. Sor-
ghum planting time is here, This
makes good green feed in August and
September and will also make your
family molassess supply. It is now
a good time to make a second plant
ing Of many Of the garden crops:
Corn, English peas, beets, lettuce,
radishes, pole beans, etc. Crush all
clods in the garden and break the
crust Immediately following each rain.
Count sure on a summer garden.
Navy, kidney or lima beans also make
a good food crop, and don't forget to
break your land for that late Irish
potato crop. Make your arrangements
to plant patch Of white peas and
peanuts and also purpose to fight
bugs and other enemies of garden
products. -rr@

The recent address Of Chaplain ].
B. Frazier, Of the u. s. navy, at the
courthouse here dispelled from the
minds Of many the belief that that
branch Of the service is filed with
hoodlums and "red necks" Chaplain
Frazier said that only men Of good
moral character are admitted to the
navy and that it is composed Of as
fine body Of men as can be found any
where. He also made it quite clear
that the navy offered splendid oppor-
tunities for educational training, pa
triotic service to the country and pro-
motion.

The Munford Savings Bank & Trust
Co. has lately ordered a car load Of
mixed peas which will be sold to
farmers in the vicinity of Munford
without a cents profit. The banks Of
this city have made their second order
for a ear load Of peas, to be sold Oh
the same terms. This means 1900
bushels Of peas distributed among the
farmers that otherwise would not
have been here to add to our food

proven themselves to be public bene-
factors and are entitled to the com
mendation of the public.

That was good ordinance passed
by the city fathers against the park
ing of cars about the square on Sat
urdays. People coming from the
country with their teams often found
the space about the courtyard so
crowded with automobiles belonging
both to town and country citizens
that it was difficult to obtain access to
the water trough. All other days Of
the week the cars must be parked
against the curb. Our hats are off to

the reason.
Selling q car these dsss means sell
ing family. The men are usually in
terested In power. speed, pickup, hexi-
bility, slow speed on high, low gasoline,
oil, and upkeep costs, and long life.
When the women enter, the scene
changes. Then 1t is a. case of graceful.
sweeping, low lines, finish, ease Of con-
troll, thickness Of upholstry, and the lit
tie refinements which add greatly to
the delights Of motoring. Then the
younger folks in their teens want a car
