ONE TON OF PORK PER PIG

Birmingham, Ala. A year ago Mr.
Crawford Johnson bought is small
pigsan Investment which has, at
this writing, yielded $4,000 pounds
Of pork, or over one ton per pig. And
Mr.. johnson Is not even farmer,
but a Birmingham business man,
state chairman Of the war savings
campaign.
He attended the farmers confer
lence at Tuskegee Institute last win
ter, as did Gov. Henderson and sew
eTal other prominent white men; and
he was SO impressed with the pig
club work of the Institutes extern
sion agent among the colored boys
Of Macon county that he gave him
Is pigs Each was to be given to a
boy who got nine other boys to join
him in a club, each boy having a
pig and agreeing to cultivate one
acre in corn under the agents direc-
ton The Is clubs soon had 234
members, and the agent supervised
their work all the year. Their report
wah one of the features of the farm
ers' conference Just held. Two hun
bred and thirty-four boys had raised
as many acres of corn, and put them,
literally, into pigs; and the weight
of those pigs was $4,000 pounds. Mr..
johnson was 50 pleased with this
return on his investment that he
gave a pig as a prize to the boy in
each club who had done the best
work.
Macon county expects most of |
these boys to stay on its farms. |
Whether he be white or colored, the |
way to keep a boy in the country is
to give him stake in it; and three
or four hundred pounds of boy-owned /
pork is a very good anchor to start /
with.

SEVIERVILLE BOY HAS
MANY DECORATIONS

The following is an excerpt from
letter received by Judge w. A.
Owen from his son, Richard, who is
now captain in the reserve officers
training corps at the University of
Tennessee:
"The boys at the house had quite
treat today. We saw an overseas
man who had on lot of decora-
tions passing by, so we invited him
in to dinner. He had had dinner,
but chatted with us a while. ! never
will forget nina young, rough, tall
mountaineer from Sevierville, Tenn,
who has been in the army since 1911.
He went overseas in June, 1917, and
is back now with so many decora-
tions, medals, stripes and citations
that he looked like a Christmas tree.
We, out of curiosity, of course, asked
him about some Of his decorations,
and he told us few tales. He wore
"a string of bright eolored beads or
baubles on his right shoulder There
were 81 Of them, and this was award
ed him for holding "a German pris-
oners at bay with a machine gun for
80 hours. On his left shoulder he
wore the cord Of the legion of honor,
awarded him by King George, for
having taken charge of British reg
iment when all Of it's officers had
been killed or wounded. He also had
a string Of medals which he wore
on leather belt around his waist.
These were awarded him by different
governments as attests to his brave
ry. He had five brothers killed in
action, one being shot down at his
side. He himself was wounded and
returned to the United States in a
casualty company. He can relate
some very interesting stories 49, in
fact, some Of them sound almost too
strange to be true. Yet he is only
an ignorant country boy. If he had
had the education, no doubt he would
be able to write book more inter-
esting than Employs "Over the Top"
or the book by Private Peat.

The mother with the lovelight in

with joyful anticipation is anxiOusly

her, "Now, Mother, don't worry, for
will come back some day" And

HeN B0LsHEvIsM CAME

Dr G. W. Dyer, Of Vanderbilt
University, Thursday, in an address
tAs Mayors Convention, spoke Of
aaAeviam as "a city life problem"
5i s trae when we attribute it to
leaders as Lenine, Tfotzky,
asa Luxemberg and the like; yet If
De true IN an abstract sense, there
aims the concrete fact that it had
IS origin in Russia, a country with
vast rural domain and perhaps
smaller per cent of urban popu-
latlon than any other country in Eu-
fopo
olsheyik is a Russian word, and
th idea and practice had its origin
ihsle It came into power through
be Council of Workmen's and Sol
aiers' Delegates in Petrograd, which
body the extreme radicals exploited
Tor the development Of their schemes.
ln this respect its origin correspond
Cd entirely with DR.. Dyer's theory,
but It's national success came Of en-
listing the mass of Russian peasants
through al agrarian policy It prom
lsed them a division of the lands and
government gifts Of farm imple-
ments.
IN both the city and country it
l0urished on ignorance, utilized to
the advantage Of radical adventures.
The Russian example would argue
that Bolshevism must find mass
sf ignorance and poverty to act as
nutrient medium for its germs.
Stili. it is fact that some Of the
extremely radical doctrines Of the
day find Judgment in the universities.
Karl Liebknecht had degrees from
three Of the leading German univer-
sites. One Of the men who figured
il the trial Of Victor Berger at Mil
waukee was a Rhodes scholarship
man from Oxford, and the Banner
recently had letter from a man
strongly objecting to the paDer's on
position to the Bolsheviki who took
secession to say that he was mot
Polish exile nor an Austrian jew"
but IN Al. M. of Oxford, with kindred
of renown in England, DR.. Dyer
should be able to account for that
class Of radicals. They are the
most dangerous class with whom we
have to deal in America.
Dr. Dyer's idea mainly was that
under the old conditions prevalent in
The United States in the colonial
and the pioneer days, when lands We're
fresh and abundant, when no one was
very rich and no one very poor,
BoIshevism was impossible. That
was true. 1t is still impossible in

After-The-War Problems
Affect Telephone Service

w THILE the nation was under the stress in-
cidenf TO winning the war, we asked our
subscribers and the pubfIc 20 be patient
with the telephone service and to limit its use as
much as practicable in order that we might handle
the urgent business Of the nation efficiently.
Now that the armistice has been signed and
hostiities have ceased. we are confronted with
problems Of the reconstruction period, which are
equally as serious and which will require time and
patience for solution.
The policy Of frankness which we have prac-
ticcd prompts US to make il clear that the difficult
ties under which we are now operating are such
that it will be many months before we can bring
our service back to the standard Of efficiency pre-
vaihng prior to the European war.
The abnormal increase in the volume Of tele-
phone calls due to war activities created need
ler greater number ct operators and we have
been diligently building up an enlarged operating
force. When this situation was very well in hand
last fall the influenza epidemic played havoc with
eur forces and our losses from illness and death.
are still alarming AS i result Of this combination
Of circumstances, the percentage OF new and mex
perienced operators is large and there is now
serious shortage although our training schools are
graduating large classes every month.
Although our service has suffered from these
causes the public has been considerable and we
have been able to handle heavier traffic than
seemed humanity possible and have installed
promptly and operated efficiently the telephone
plants required BY the government at army camps
and other similar institutions.
The situation confronting our service is more
serious now than ii was when fighting was in
progress. The public has relaxed from its ten
sion and is inclined to expect our service to at
once assume its pre-war efficiency. We deem it
cur duty to make this frank statement and urge
you to continue the conservation Of the service
which proved so helpful during the time Of our
nation greatest need
We arc operating the telephone system as
agents for the federal government under the SUI
pervision Of the Postmaster General, and our loyal
organization is making patriotic effort TO perfect
the service. Your continued cooperation and
encouragement VIII Be appreciated.

A great part of the value of keep

is exposed to the direct rays of the sun

stop to realize the Importance of cov-

them to town. Expensive jacketed
