UNITED STATES FUEL ADMINS
TRATI0N, NASHVILLE, TENN.
SEPT. 30, 1918.

The fuel administration, Washing
ton, makes the same ruling in regard
to the use Of automobiles or the
Fourth Liberty Loan Sunday meetings
as at present applies to Sunday church
going,
1t is earnestly desired that the peo-
lie attend church and also the Liberty
Loan meetings. The spirit of the
Presidents request in regard to boil,
church and liberty loan on Sunday is
that our people either use street cars,
Luggies, farm wagons or walk, unless
TIE distance is so far as to make it be-
yond their strength.
Numbers OF patriotic people will at
tend these meetings in the old farm
wagons for God and Country. They
will be better Christians and better
patriots for SO doing. If it is too far
t. walk even using uue energy, and no
ether meanst is available and the con-
other means is available and the con-
may oe used.
1t is earnestly desire4 that our peo-
lie attend church anu the Sunday Lib
erty Loan meetings, but they are ex-
peeted to reach the place of meeting in
the way Godfearing, patriotic people
should do in this hour of gasoline scar
city.
At this time the nation is short Of
gasoline to operate our ambulances to
fake care Of the dead and wounded on
TIE fields of France and to move our
trucks to carry munitions and food to

COOPERATION IN
HOGGING DOWN CORN

A shortage of native hogs in Mid
die Tennessee county existed this year.
Some farmers were not able to secure
all the hogs eeded to hog down the
larger corn crop which they had
grown.
Experience had shown hogging down
corn to be the most profitable way to
dispose of the corn. Labor for har-
vesting had been unusually scarce. The
farmers, therefore, made contracts
with men who had more hogs than
corn to let their hogs harvest the corn.
Sometimes the hogs belonging to a
neighbor were turned into a field with
the hogs belonging to the owner of
the corn field, a charge being made to
cover the value of the corn consumed.
This plan saved labor for the owner
and made money for the owner of the
hogs.

RED CROSS NOTES

All of those from whose homes a
boy has gone "over there" will be de-
lighted to know that the Red Cross
has prepared to assist Uncle Sam in
acting as Santa Claus for our boys in
France, or wherever they may be
overseas. The following gives the
plan:
"Plans are being perfected by the
war department, the postal authori-
ties and the American Red Cross where
by the men in the American Expedi-
tionayr Forces will be provided with
Christmas packages, though the limit
will be one parcel to each man. Cou-
pons are being distributed by the army
authorities to the men overseas to be
forwarded to their relatives and
friends, and no parcel will be received
by the postoffice without this label
which authorizes its shipment. The
contents of the package viii be sup
piled by the families, but the Red Cross
will furnish standard cartons, as all
packages must be the same size and
weight, and will inspect, wrap and de-
liver inspected parcels to the postal
authorities. The order for these car
tons has already been placed, and they
will be delivered the latter part of 0c-
tober in time to be distributed to
Chapters. No cartons will be given
out until the labels arrive from abroad
and complete details will be sent to
all Red Cross Chapters as soon as the
final arrangements are completed by
the war department and postoffce."
more men are needed for Red Cross
service in France, but they must be

ty and vigor. The bureau of person.

THE FARM INVENTORY

A few hours in the fall or winter
spent in invoicing the farm, its stock
and equipment, should be among the
hapipest hours that a farmer and his
wife have together. Much joy comes
to those who discover with mathemat-
ical certainty that they have accumu-
laed a few hundred dollars, and the
very certainty gives one inspiration to
take hold for another year with re-
newed enthusiasm, and to buy Fourth
Liberty Bonds with eagerness.
Beside enabling a farmer to know
his business with mathematical accu-
racy, well-kept set of books may en-
able him to avoid many disputes and
an occasional lawsuit. Accounts with
merchants, money paid out, affairs
with hired help or neighbors, if put
down at the time in black and white,
are not apt to cause trouble later.

WHERE FARMING
IS PROFITABLE
The Future Of Great Possibilities,

Some idea of the great wealth that
the Western Canada farmer had in
view few years ago is now being real
lied. The amount received from the
sale of wheat, oats, barley, flax and
rye In 1917 was S27O,OO0OOO. while the
sales of live stock at Winnipeg alone
nettcd S4O00O,0OO additional OF this
sum hogs alone gave over eleven mil
lion dollars. The increases at Calgary
and Edmonton were over Ga million
dollars.
This money. 50 easily earned, is be-
ing spent III improvements in farm
property purchasing additional land,
buying tractors, automobiles and i'm
proving home conditions, providing
electric light steam heat. new furni-
ture, pianos. buying Victory bonds,
paying up old debts, etc.
over five hundred tractors were sold
in Southern. Alberta in 1917. One
implement agent reports that the in
crease in his business in 1917. over
that Of 1916, was equal to the total
business in 1919. 1t is the same story
all over the country. And il is not
this evidence alone which proves the
advancement and growth of the three
prairie provinces, but the large in
crease in the number Of settlers; the
Improvement i'm the extent of the cul-
tivated areas and agricultural produc-
tion; the increase in value Of which
over 1916 WAS $7T.O0O,O0O.
This wonderful progress that has
been made in agriculture in Western
Canada is but the beginning which
marks the future of the greatest agri-
cultural country on the continent,
showing a future Of great possibilities.
There are millions Of acres yet un-
TILED. ana of land rs good as any Of
that which is now giving its owners a
return Of from twenty TO thirty dollars
an acre, figures that in many cases
represent the cost of the land, with all
cultivation costs included. 1t is true
that the cost of production has in
creased during The past few years, Dut
the price of the product has also in
creased 70 a figure which leaves n
large balance to the credit of the pro-
