NO SHORTAGE OF live.
STOCK IN TENNESSEE.
Interesting Data Given B
Government Official.

ed belief that there is a shortage
of live stock in Tennessee; one of
the most careful and painstakiug
surveys that has ever been un-
dertaken has failed to disclose
this shortage, on the other hand
there seems to be an increase of
nearly all kinds of live stock,
only in horses, which remain the
same as one year ago.
There has been an increase of
all others, while slight in most
cases; the heaviest increase be-
ing in swine, where the increase
amounts to full 10 per cent, 'this
is the result of their being more
pigs and small shoats, as there
are but few full sized hogs at
this time of year.
There has been a decline in
beef steers, but this has been
more than made up by an in
crease in heifer calves, general
ly the cattle that are being car
ried through the winter as feed
ers are smaller in size than usual
The seeming scarcity and high
prices Of mules have kept many
farmers who make a practice of
selling off in the fall all they can
spare, and buying again in the
spring. from doing so as much
as usual, and while the surplus
for sale seems short, it is for
this reason.
The general trend of prices has
been heavily upward, except for
horses for which there is but
slight demand.

PRESIDENT WILSON SENDS
MESSAGE TO FARMERS.
Are Great Factors In Help
ing Win The War. h

dent Wilson with Eeen Interest
The message was sent thru tn
farmers conference being hel,
this week at the University o
Illinois at Urbana.
The message was delivered b,
President James of the Univer
sity of Illinois in the absence 0.
Secretary of Agriculture Houston
who was to have represented the
President at the conference. The
President expected to attend,
but indisposition made it imposs.
ible and he delegated Mr.. Hous.
ton, who was prevented from
participating by the tieup in
transportation facilities.
The message is addressed to
the farmers collectively and in
dividually, consequentially it, is
sent to every farmer in Jackson
county. Read the message, it
follows:
Il need not tell you, for am
sure you realize as keenly as /
do, thet we are as a nation in the
presence of great task which
demands supreme sacrifice and
endesvor of every one OF US.
We can give everything that is
needed with the greater willing
ness, and even satisfaction, be-
cause the object of the war in
which We are engaged is the
greatest that free men have ever
undertaken. It isto prevent in
the life of the world from being
determined and the fortunes of
men everywhere affected by
small groups of military masters
who seek their own interests and
the selfish dominion thrnnghont
the world of the governments
they unhappily for the moment
control. You will not need TO be
convinced that it was necessary;
for US Us a free people to take
part in this war. 1t had raisad
its evil hand against us. The
rulers of Germany had sought to
use their power in such a way as
to shut off our econimic life SO
far as our intercourse with Eu-
rope was concerned, and to con-
fine our people within the West
ern Hemisphere while they ac-
complished purposes which would
have permanently impaired and
impeded every process of our
national life and have put the
fortunes of America az the mer-
cy of the Imperial Government Of
Germany. This was not a threat.
1t had become reality. Their
hand Of violence had been laid
upon our own people and our
own property in tlagrant VIOLA
ton not only of justice but of the
well recognized and long-stand-
ing covenants of international
and treaty. We are fighting.
therefore. as truly for the liber-
ty and self-government of the
