ut will be economy as well as good
farming to begin saving seed corn
from the field now" said E. A. Nc
Lean, county farm demonstration
agent, who has begun his fall SEED
saving campaign. Last year, said
Mr.. Mclean, the farmers of Maury
county saved thousands of bushels of
seed corn from the field and as a re.
suit this years crop is larger than
ever before and there is more pure
ored corn in the county than ever be.
fore
Mr.. Mclean pointed out that it Is
better to save tie corn from the field
as it is gathered, for then the best is
secured without the trouble of going
through the crib. Enough corn should
be saved for the planting next year,
as the prospects are now that the
price of seed corn win be very high
In selecting the seed corn, Mr. Nc
Lean pointed out, it is essential to
pick from stalks bearing two ears or
| more and the ears that grow four or
we feet from the ground. Avoid the
! selection of seed ears from the vicin.
ty of barren stalks. Try to select
ears that are storm proof or hanging
down with short shanks, The rows
on seed ears should be straight and
the tips and butts well covered.
| 1t is important that all seed corn
be kept dry during the winter SO that
termination will be more nearly per
feet when it is planted next spring.

WENT STRAIGHT TO
GOVERNOR RYE

Taking no chances on being brand
ed as Stacker or deserter, Willie
Arms (col.), of Mt Pleasant, went
straight to Governor Rye when he
learned that he had been called for
military service. The governor re-
ported his appearance to the local
board by whom he was instructed to
report Immediately at Camp Gordon.
Arms stated that he had been on the
road and had never received a notice
of any kind from the local board.
When he returned to Mt. Peasant he
was told that his name had been post
ed as having failed to report, so he
went post haste to the governor to
set himself right with Uncle Sam.

Only eight men were in the squad
CT Maury county selectmen who left
Saturday for Camp Gordon to com
plete the first quota of this county in
the National Army, but they were
said to have been the most soldier
like and the most cheerful lot OF men
that have gone to the training camp.
The weather was gloomy, but the men
themselves and their relatives and
friends were in happy frame OF
mind, their cheerfulness driving away
the gloominess OF the morning. The
wife Of one man was especially cheer
full. She said she would have a little
cry when she got home, but that she
wasn't going to send her husband
away with the memory of her in tears
as his last thought of home.
/ Nine men originally were in the last
! increment, but Joe Patrick Reavis
was given an extension of time with
| the possibility of eventual exemption
| On the grounds of dependents. The
men who left, with James Ira Baird
IN command, were:
Ingram Sargent
B. Merritt Laid
Thomas Alexander Hogan
Clifton Kirkpatrick Dodson
/ Frank Herbert Medley
Samuel Hinton Saddler
Marcus Stringer Hay
There was big crowd at the sta
ton to bid the men farewell. They
were assembled near the train and Dr.
H. A. Cant on behalf of the local board
made a short talk along the lines OF
his farewell talks to the other incre
ments. He reviewed the causes of the
war and the purpose of Americas en-
trance into it. He told the men that
when they return they will be the
heroes of a grateful citizenship, that
nothing will be too good for them eth
II in public or private life.
Dr.. Cant spoke proudly of the fact
hat of all the men who have been
called for military service from Maury
county not one of them had failed tC
-9spond. Although some of the men
ionestly filed exemption claims and
lad pressed those claims heartily, moi
one of them had failed to answer te
ais name when the final call came fol-
him to go to the camp.
Boxes of lunches were distributed

md because CT the small number leav
ng, there was big surplus of food
The men will have enough to las
hem several meals after they reach

Hudson Choice When Others Cost Less

Even when such cars sold at 5000 to $500 less than
the SuperSx its sales greater than those of any
two makes of their class. Everyone who knows will
choose Hudson as against such cars now that there
is so little difference in their cost No material change
has been made in design or construction. They
practically the same as when sold for much less than
present prices.
Hudson leadership is understood by all motorists.
All know the effectiveness of the Super-Six motor.
No other car has or can have a motor like it. That is
why other car has ever equaed its records for en-
DURANGO
Almost 10000 owners now drive SuperSixeS.
They have maderecordS that to many are quite as i'm
preSSye as those made on the speedway and in con-
tests which have been extensively advertised.
The Super-Six is a lifetime car. Its great endur-
anCe is due to the SmoothneSS of the SuperSx motor
1t minimizeS vibration. Vibration is the most de-
StruCtve force in motor All Hudson tests show
how by minimizing vibration endurance is obtained.
The Super-SiX is the most powerful automobile
motor of its size known. BY minimizing vibration
most of the power delivered and is not as with other
types, consumed within the motor.
