Breed Cows for Fall Calves.

Feed and labor are entirely too ex-
pensive to keep a cow year for one
calf and then neglect that calf. If
the calf isn't worth raising, the COW
isn't worth keeping, so either a sys-
tenn must be devised which will
guarantee better treatment for the
calves until they are big enough to
care for themselves or we may ex-
pect to lose money keeping cattle.
Here is a system that, if adopted,
will add SO per cent to the value of
the annual calf crop: Breed the
cows in the late fall and early winter.
Advantages: % Calves dropped
at the time of year when the farmer
has most leisure. CD If he sells
milk or butter he will derive great
er profit from his cows. 90 The
fall-born calf is ready to make best
use of pasture during his first spring
and summer and the next fall is
ready to be finished for market. ca
There are no flies to bother the fall
born calf.

erous with war plants in the matter
of labor. Memphis was drained for
the powder plant at Nashville and
the nitrate plant at Sheffield. Fac
engaged in profitable enterprises in
Memphis ran on half capacity be-
cause their help went to Nashville
and to Sheffield for a vital govern
ment necessity.
Memphis now needs all the labor
that there is here and more. No more
must leave by solicitation unless
there is a case of extraordinary need
to be met by person of extraordi-
nary skill in some particular line.
The Provost Marshal has already
grasped the situation and all work
or fight" orders have been held up.
Memphis and this territory during
the war contributed everything and
got nothing in return, and now this
territory by right can demand that
it be burdened by no more subscrip-
tions, but must be permitted to go
forward and earn something to pay
for bonds, thrift stamps and the va
rious contributions of war philan-
thropies. Besides, the constitution of
the United States in all of it's para
graphs should speedily become an
active working instrument, giving
liberty to every citizen in his pur-
suit of property, health and happi-
ness.
The constitution assumes that the
individual is the best judge of what
he wants, if he observes it's limita-
tions, and the individual should
again begin to judge.-Memphis

The Next Bond Sale.

Will there be other bond sales in
this country to dietary the expenses
of the war and after?
1t is generally understood there
will be, the next not later than
spring, the intim&tion being that it
will be called the Victory Loan in
stead of another Liberty Loan.
But spring is months away yet,
and the programme may be changed
during those months. There are
those who are already advocating a
different method of floating the bonds
and a shorter term bond. They adj
wise instead of another drive" for
the disposal of the securities, that
bonds be placed on sale at the banks
and other financial institutions, to be
taken by thrifty and sagacious in
vestors as will. They point to the
fact that the British Exchequer Of
fered such loan last year, the bonds
maturing at five, seven and ten years
from date, and that about $6,000,-
100000 worth of them have been
sold. 1t is argued that with an at
tractive rate of interest the sale of,
say a ten-year bond, would be much
larger in this country.-Louisville

SOME OF THE UNITS
COMING HOME NAMED

Washington, Nov. 23.-Gen. March
announced to-day that authority had
been given to Gen. Pershing to send
home all such troops as will not be
needed in making up the army oc-
cupation. He said Gen. Pershing
had indicated that the following
units would not be so required.
Divisions 81, "a, SO, 80, rs, "a,
Sc and 81.
Coast artillery regiments as, AT,
40, so, rs and rs.
Field artillery brigades IS and
1O3.
In addition, Gen. Pershing indi-
Gated that the following general
classes of troops will be returned:
Railroad artillery troops, army ar
tillery troops, gas troops, tank corps,
air forces and those divisions which
were broken up to be used as re-
placements for other divisions which
had seen active service.
The composition of divisions desig-
mated for return, so far as known,
is as follows:
Thirty-first, Georgia, Alabama and
Florida; Thirty-fourth, Nebraska,
Iowa, South Dakota and Minnesota;
Thirty-eighth, Indiana, Kentucky
and West Virginia; Seventy-sixth,
New England; Thirty-ninth, Arkan-
sas, Mississippi and Louisiana;
Eighty-fourth, Kentucky, Indiana
and Southern Illinois; Eighty-sixth,
Chicago and Northern Illinois;
Eighty-seventh, Arkansas, Louisi-
ana, Mississippi and Southern Ala
hama.
Troops returning Immediately from
England, Gen. March said will in-
clude practically all of the air
les, one sail makers detachment, one
Handley-Pago training station, and
several Photographic and radio sec
tions. Orders for the return of these
already have been issued.
The American forces 'in France,
Gen March said, had taken $4,000
German prisoners, in round numbers,
and 1,400 guns. He added that the
casualties among the American forces
in Northern Russia were not severe,
contrary to reports, and that en-
couraging accounts of the situation
of the forces there had been received.
Movement of troops from France
will be expedited in every way, the
Chief of Staff said, and he added that
they will not "snoak into the coun-
try, either"
.. Taking up the present advance IF
the allied forces, Gen. March pointed
out that the American army is head
ing for Coblenz, the center bridge
head of the Rhine, where it should
arrive about Dec. l. The British
forces will occupy the bridgehead to
the north at Cologne, and the French
the bridgehcad to the east at Mainz,
The strength of the American army
to be maintained in France was not
indicated beyond the rehabilitation
plans announced. American troops
in Italy, including the 332d Infantry,
will be stationed for the time being
at Cattargo, Fiume and Trieste, one
battalion of the infantry being To-
Gated at place.

Proclamation.

The greatest war OF all history Is
at an end and the world is again at
peace. Soon there will be returning
from a battle front of glorious
achievements hosts of our men whom
welcoming hearts will greet as they
march with drums beating and flags
flying. In the fields of France, in
cross-marked graves, lie others.
Bravely they fought, nobly they died,
willingly they laid down their lives
for the sake of humanity. These we
will not forget.
But they arc not all-they who
come marching home in the full
strength of manhood, and they who
sleep on European fields.
There are others, also, whom we
cannot forget, who do not sleep in
the fields of France, but yet, who do
not return marching-our disabled
soldiers and sailors who must con-
tinually pay the price of our victory
thru each day of their lives. Manned
and broken and blind they return to
us, demanding not charity nor pity,
but one of the many obligations we
owe them, a help translated into eff
fort to rebuild and renew what has
been broken on the wheel of war.
Since the war began, thousands of
men of the allied armies have been
blinded. Liberal provision has been
made for our own MANNED and blind
and it is necessary that we re-educate
and re-habilitete the allied blind as
we'll. Every blind man is an indi-
vidual problem, and to set him again
upon the road to self-support and
renewed ability requires patience,
care and money.
There are already established in
Europe, hospitals, vocational train
ing schools and supply depots for
raw material. These agencies are
being used for our own men until
they are ready to be sent home.
Recognizing the economic and So
cial necessity of caring for these men
in this way, the Committee of the
Permanent Blind Relief War Fund
for Soldiers and Sailors of the Allies
is raising a fund to carry on this
work. This committee has already
contributed 100000 to the Govern
ment Hospital at Baltimore thru the
American Red Cross, and in giving
our support to the Permanent Blind
Relief Fund, we are solving what has
been characterized as the cruelest
and most perplexing problem grow
ing out of the war.
Therefore, in pursuance of the
plans of the State Committee of the
Permanent Blind Relief Fund, 1,
Tom C. Rye, Governor of Tennessee.
do hereby proclaim Sunday, Deem
Der l 5, Allied Blind Relief Day, when
the people of Tennessee are asked to
should have hearty response in every
community. Certainly we will not
fail in our obligation to the men who
have sacrificed the precious gift of
sight that the world might hence
forth have peace. Plunged into en
absolute and endless darkness, at the
very threshold of life, they grope
for the light that can only come
thru the re-education that is made
possible by the institutions that this
fund maintains.
In witness whereof, I have here
unto subscribed my name on this
the 2Sd day of November, 1918, and
caused the Great Seal of the State
to be affixed hereto.
