Farmer Values Work of
County Farm Agent

The value of county agent work is
very prominently called TO the attention
of the farmers Of Maury county IN a
newspaper account recently published.
This is what the editor of the paper
said in telling the story:
Ninety-tive dollars an acre for
single corr crop and that from field
of twenty acres is probably the record
money yield from that crop in Maury
county. 1t is the record made by Col.
Jusepn Brown TOminson, of Fountain
Valley farm. near CuIIeOka. on twenty
acre demonstration plot farmed under
the immediate supervision and direction
of County Agent Mclean.
From this field Of twenty acres Mr..
Fomlinson sold every barrel Of corn,
He received in cash 1880 g.. The
crop ave. aged fourteen and half bar
res to the acre and the average price
which he received for his corn was
Sc 50. making the yield of the corn per
acre almost ninety-five dollars.
This is probably the best yield on that
~ acreasr ever made in the country,
money returns considered. The crop
was worth as much per acre as good
and was worth in Maury county few
years ego. This corn was grown on
Fountain Creek bottom and was planted
and cultivated in strict accordance with
the rules promulgated BY the county
demonstration agent
This crop" said Col. Tomlinson,
lis strictly a triumph for the county
agent, Mr.. Mclean. He is entitled to
at least four barrels per acre of the
yield. had thirty acres that | culti-
waited my way and it made fraction
over ten barrels to the acre, or four
barrels less than the yield of the demon
stration plot. This yield demonstrates
what the county agent can do"
The additional yield of four and
half barrels per acre N six and half
dollars, is nearly thirty dollars an acre,
or $500 for the twenty acres, or enough
to pay he county agents salary, at
least that part paid by the county.

COPPER RIVER
WASEXPLORED
EARLY AS 1857

The knowledge of the Copper river
prior to 1884 was limited exclusively
ports. At this time the river was
called the Aetna.
The initial point for all expeditions
to that river up to this time had been
Port Eteches (Nuchek). or Hinchin-
brook island, in the early sos and for
i years later a trading station of the
Alaska Commercial Company, and
about fifty miles to the westward of
the mouth Of the Copper river.
This village was located by Cook
in 1776-1779; by Chornhoff in 1890;
Belcher in 1S3S-1S4l; Tebenkoff in
1852. and more recently by the Coast
and Geodetic Survey. which last gives
it latitude of 50 degrees SO minutes
west
From 1898. the year when the first
redoubt todinatschkaD was built at
the mouth of the river. up to lS4T.
the explorations were made by men
wholly destitute of mathematical
knowledrc and the maps constructed
bv them were subsequently found to
be very inaccurate.
The odinatschka "a single redoubu
was located a few miles south of Al
ranik (Anahanuk), but at the present
time no trace of il remains. It is
urobable that a village of two miser-
able barabarras. called hv the natives
"skatalis," is on the site of the old

Sustain the =
President

Republicans in fit of hysteria
are damning President Wilson
for his appeal to the people to
give him a Congress in sympathy
with his Administration, and say
it is unprecedented for a Presi-
dent to take such action in a p0-
litical campaign. But President
Lincoln did the same thing dur
ing the Civil War. And RoOse-
welt, Harrison and others made
similar appeal for McKinley's
Administration at the close of
the Spanish War. The worlds
war is not over yet, and Presi-
dent Wilson ID engaged with the
Allies in demanding uncondition-
al surrender of the Central Pow
ers. II is a most critical period
of the war, and why should he
not ask the people to indorse his
administration? To elect a Re-
publican Congfess would be to,
repudiate all that he has done and
is doing. President Wilson is
right. precedent or no precedent.

upon all our people to use every pos

dent said, "Unity of command is as
necessary now in civil action as it is
upon the field of battle" He declared
that the return of Republican major
ity to either house of Congress would
be interpreted on the other side of
the water as reputation of his
leadership.
The war programs of Washington
and Lincoln were materially hampered
by critics and lack of support and the
present war is so much greater than
those of past experiences that uni
fled support is now much more i'm
portant than in those days. Congress
