STORE VEGETABLES WELL
so THEY WILL KEEP WELL

All root crops are stored for winter
in practically the same way. Storage
is accomplished by excavating a shall
low pit five inches deep, three feet
wide, and any length. Roots or cab
bage are then placed in the pit, with
the top of the mound thirty inches
above the surface of the ground. A
slight covering of straw or leaves Is
placed over the vegetables to keep
them clean Soil is then placed over
the straw or leaves to thickness OF
eight to twelve inches-enough to
afford protection against the coolest
days in winter.
Beets. carrots and turnips should al
ways have the tops removed before
they are placed in storage, as the tops
will rot and cause the roots to decay.
Care should be taken to avoid bruising
the roots at the time of placing in
storage.-C. E. Brehm, division of
extension, University Of Tennessee,

BROADER GROUNDS
FOR EXEMPTION

Washington, Sept. 4.-Much broader
grounds for the establishment OF
claims for exemption from military
service are provided in new regula-
tons being worked out by Provost
Marshal General Crowder to govern
the classification of men between Is
and As who will register September
~.
Important notifications are based
on the change of few words in the
ordiginal draft law made in passing
the new man-power act. The term
industrial occupation" is eliminated
and the law now provides persons
may be given deferred classification
when engaged in occupation or employ
ment, including agriculture, which can
De established as necessary to military
establishment or the maintance of the
national interests.
This section, officials pointed out to
day with the regulation constituting it,
will definitely allow district exemp-
don boards to exempt bankers and
essential bank employees, men engaged
in necessary commercial enterprises
and necessary commercial enterprise
and necessary workers for Red Cross
and kindred organizations. The regu
lation will not attempt specifically to
1efine the status of registrants who
shall be entitled to exemption, but |
will allow the boards to work out the |
details, after the authorization has |
been given them.
1t was said that the regulations |
would straighten out completely a |
situation arising since district boards |
in various localities have ruled, under
he old law, that railroads and banks
Ire not industries and that an i'm
porter of necessary war materials and
lis staff are not engaged in industry.
Since the requirement that man
exempted because of his occupation
must be of such Importance as to
threaten the continuance of the enter
Prise to which he is attached has been
'etained, however, the sum total of ex
smptions is not expected to seriously
effect the new man-power which will,
inally be placed in class one.

unifying the toilers of those countries
in Jealous and unfemitting effort to
bring speedy victory to the arms of
the nations fighting for freedom and
civilization. He is now to go Oh a

America and her allies in this war
means a victory for labor and the nap

masses everywhere. The people OF
Tennessee share with the working
people of the state the pride in the
distinguished preferment the presi.
dent has exhibited for this Tennessean
who has, by his own effort, his own
brain and his own initiative, won 50

leaders of the nation.
In his address to labor at South

is in him and that has won the con-
