Profit from Waste Products,

In Denmark, where the principal pro-
duet is butter. the raising of swine on
the skimmilk is an important by-in-
dustry. Swine are also raised on Q
large scale in the oak forests Of the
Balkan Peninsular, where the swine
run at large and feed on acorns, and in
be corn sections Of the United States,
where food Of = high fsttening power
is abundant.
There 10 q wonderful opportunity to
mskea profit on hogs grown on waste
Production costa to regularfeeders are
high. But hogs grown on waste cost
little more than before and briue much
more.
Hogs eat mast, roots. worms, slop or
garbage. waste corn from steers, weeds
from gardens, faulty apples and other
fruit. scattered grain Of wheat and oat
fields.
Alfalfa pasture makes the best place
On which to raise pigs. While grow
ing thev need milk to supplement the
alfalfa; vhsn older they need corn.

manifestation OF objection to the prose-
cuti0n Of this war to the final end.
grieve that many of our poor boys
may fall, and God grant that but few
shall fall or be hurt, but we should
think back to our distant ancestors
who fought in the Revolution to estab-
lish this republic and give to tho
world not only new nation, but Q
new meaning to the rights of man. Do
we begrudge the sacrifice of any man
who gave his life in order that that
great privilege should be establishedt
Who among our men, who among eur
women, regrets even the sacrifices
that were made during our Civil War
to abolish human slavery and to main.
tain the Union? Who regrets the sac
tifces that we're made to rescue Cuba
from the domination OF Spain and
make her an independent republicH
Why. all hearts throb and our whole
beings thrill when we can trace one
who gave some contributory effort or
sacrifice in order that these great
achievements should lie as the sue
cesses of our country And so wonder
ful as are the achievements Of our
great Revolution, the tremendous ad-
vance to maintain the Union and abol.
ish human slavery, the independence

Hog Production Rally.

The hog production rally to be held
at the county seat today friday Jan
uary il, opens an extensive campaign
in which practically every citizen in the
county should participate. For FIVE or
six weeks farmers who are best
equipped to increase pig production from
their farms will be active in so doing,
and in securing the cooperation of bank
ers in the county and others who may
assist.
Let everybody recognize that this is
part of nation wide movement for the
purpose of increasing hog production;
that Tennessee is expected to produce
$50 600 more hogs this year than last.
This will call for the use Of probably
rs. 600 more brood sows than were used
last year.
The work of the counties is primarily
to see that breeding animals do not go
to the market for butchering purposes.

County Agent to Assist in
Marketing.

Since | came into the county | have
tried to familiarize myself with the
charcter of the soils and with the crops
produced on them. | have also tried to
familiarlze myself with the way the
people generally dispose Of their pro.
ducts. By close investigation / find
there is lost motion in the way farm
ers buv and sell their products. In or
der to assist the farmers in the county
| am asking that every farmer who de-
Tres to sell or buy anything connected
with the farm to list such livestock or
product with the county agent, who
goes over the couHty daily and constant
ly coming in contact with persons de-
string to buy your stuff. In this way
many of our products will be disposed
of near your home. In listing your live
stock give breed, size, number and
price desired. Also give name, quantity
and price of agricultural products.
When this is done it will be less trOu'
BILE for me to place them. Many sales
have been made in this way and hun
dred of others can be made with no ex-
pense to you as the county agent charges
nothing for bis labor.
Hoping to be of much service to you
in placing your products, am.
Truly your servant,

Mrs. Philip Moore. great campaign Of
patriotic education which the Secur.
Ilty League Is conducting throughout
the country under the direction Of
thls committee:
A tremendous responsibility is
placed upon the women OF the United
States. The thing we need today is
inspiration. Our obligation is Just as
great as II the war were on our own
borders or on the shores of the Mis-.
Pissippl. When this inspiration and
obligation are brought home. women
can do more than men to bring condi-
tions to the people.
The resources Of the country are
more definitely needed in war than in
peace, and women can do more than
amy other force to conserve these re.
sources. The American people have
much to learn, and this lesson Is need
ed to teach them to be less wasteful
and more alive to Industrial condl-
tions. The laissez-faire sort Of living
ts not good patriotism, and the hour
has come upon which we may look
back with appreciation. the hour
which made us more thoughtful Of
mankind. less self centered.
What England Die
In England 1t is estimated that $780,
700 women have gone out to work
who did not do so before the war.
The number OF women who have been
substituted for men in industries, ex.
cluding all government establish
ments. are $4,000. There are 1885,.
900 women employed in government
works. including arsenals. dockyards
and national shell filling and projec.
tile factories; $4,000 are engaged in
agricultural pursuits. and $1,000 in
transportation.
II Is In the industrial and economic
held that the world war will mark the
most far reaching transformation In
the condition of women.
From the women Of the country we
ask utmost loyalty to the declaration
that We are not In this struggle for
conquest, but that we follow the flag
10 an assured victory Of the principles
bf democracy and humanity.
Those who are determined that this
shall be the last great war must learn
how to live and work together, even
hs we desire all nations to do.

Order Farm Supplies Now.

In the spring there is always q rush
made by farmers to get fertilizers. seed
and equipment f,r soring planting.
This adds to the business of the rail-
roads greatly by making the spring,
normally, busy time for them. The
railroads will be so busy next spring in
Government service that farmers can
not depend on the prompt delivery of
any commodity. That there may be no
delay in having fertilizer, seeds, tools
and all supplies, farmers must order
them now.

2. Harrow, roll and pulverize the
seed bed thoroughly before planting
8. Use only the best possible seed,
preferably pedigreed seed, from q re-
sponsible plant breeder.
4. Make liberal use OF fertilizers,
and use manure whenever obtainable
to supplement the fertilizers.
5. Give thorough and frequent cul.
tivation to the titled crops, preferably
shallow and frequent cultivation.
s, Harvest savingly and protect the
stored crops from pests.
While it is true that everything the
farmer has to buy is high in price, II
is also true that whatever the farmer
has to sell Is also high In price. The
fertilizer people figure out that their
products have not advanced In price
as much as the price Of crops, and that
as a matter Of fact, cotton, corn, pea
nuts, tobacco and the like will buy
more fertilizer now than ever Which
being true 1t follows that 1t will pay
better now to usa 1t than formerly,
for the increase for which they are re-.
sponsible will be worth more.
Another thing that the farmer must
bear In mind II he would be sure to
raise a bumper crop and that is, to
place his orders early for everything
that is to be shipped by rail. The
railroads are hard put to 1t and do
not afford assurance of prompt ship
ments. Orders placed late are more
than likely to be too late to be dellv.
cred In time.
Even IL shipping were good, there
would be nothing gained by delay.
Prices are not likely to be lower In
fertilizers, especially there is a scare
ity of materials and advancing prices,
making 1t improbable that the fertiliz.
or will be cheaper.

Upon those whom the United States
has not called from the farm, rests
q great obligation Of feeding and
clothing the liberty armies OF the
world. The greater the crops the
harder the armies will be able to
strike.
What can hinder the farmer from
making maximum crops? Will 1t be
q lack Of market and a good price?
No, the market and price prospects
are good.
Will 1t be fox lack Of money or cred.
IL with which to buy tools, seeds, fer
tiliZers or other necessary supplies?
No, money Is plentiful and credit 10
good.
Will it be for lack OF labor7 Labor
Is scarce without doubt In fact, the
shortage OF labor is practically the
only great obstacle the farmer has to
meet in producing maximum crops. II
he could have abundance of labor he
could increase the cultivated acreage
and by proper fertilization he could
bring in q very great crop. But in
view OF the lack Of labor what must
he do?
He can do two things to overcome
The labor shortage: First, Increase the
applications Of fertilizers, which will
Increase the yield without eniarslry
the cultivated acreage. Second, use
labor saving machinery.
But overcoming the labor shortage
is not all that is necessary to obtain
maximum crops. Here is a schedule
of important things that must be done
by every farmer to get maximum
crops:
l. Break the land deeply turning
