A SAFE TEST

For those who are in need of a
remedy for kidney troubles and
backache, it is a good plan to cry
Doan's Kidney Pills. They are
strongly recommended by Maryville
people.
Mrs. S. P Henry, Cemetery St.,
Maryville, says; | gladly recommend
Doan's Kidney Pills for l know they
are just as represented. We keep
them in our home and when any Of
us have any signs of kidney com
plant, Doan's are sure to relieve.
Ny kidneys were always weak and l
suffered from attacks of backache
and soreness over my kidneys. Nv
kidneys didn't act right, either.
Doan's Kidney Pills soon relieved
these attacks and put my kidneys in
good shape"
Price soc, at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for kidney remedy-get

Choosing Cheap Fuel.
Body-fuel, like other kinds of fuel
costs money, and the problem is to get
the amount needed for the smallest
sum possible, which means choosing
food rather carefully. A man running
a Sawmil in the cypress swumps of
Louisiana or the Michigan woods
would have to pay lot Of money for
enough anthracite coal to run his
steam engine, but he can take his fuel
from the sawdust heap and the slab
pile and so save money.
Much the same situation exists with
regard to the fuel for the human en-,

BAND PLAYED DIXIE"
AT INTERNATIONAL
LIVE STOCK SHOW

In 1913 when a Hereford bull
Point Comfort XIV won for the
South a championship for the breed
at the international Livestock Show
many northern breeders were prone
to think it was just chance that
such a thing happened and that II
certtinly would never occur again
Now, six years later, the results prove
that since 1918 the South has not
gone to sleep over her livestock inter-
ests. To carry off nine grand
championships by breeders south OF
the Ohio River at 1919 international
Livestock Show is evidence enough OF
this. The grand championships for
Shorthorn bull and COW, Hereford
bull, Angus bull, Percheron mare,
Duroc Jersey boar, Poland China SOW
and Hampshire ram and eve make
the list. Tennessee won chr share
of the glory. DR.. Higgins and Mr..
Little have started the ball rolling
and every farmer in the State will be
needed to keep it going. To make
Tennessee the leading livestock state
of the South all farms must own
purebred stock. Care and feeding
of animals is the next consideration
after procuring purebreds. How
ever, Tennessee farmers seem to
realize this for new, modern barns
are being built all over the State, and
silos are springing up in all COM
munities. But while all this is going
on, there are some conditions that
need attention. Cattle are often
sold to the butcher as producers,
when after being taken from the
butchers pen and being fed and
cared for properly they will produce
the amount of butter-fat expected of
them. This has been tried and found
that often care and feeding make the
animal poor and not its breed. Also
there are some of our counties that
have not joined in the Better Sire,
"Better Stock" campaign, and Tenn
essee counties should hold 1000
membership. 1t is believed that be-
fore many more weeks this will be
true.

ATTEND THE SHORT COURSE
IN AGRICULTURE AT THE
UNIVERSITY OF TENNESSEE

The Short Course in Agriculture
given by the University of Tennessee
Knoxville, will begin January and
end February 10. 1t is free to all
Tennesseans.
While a considerably number of
young farmers have attended the
Short Course in the past years, many
more are urged to attend. Dr. TAFT
Butler, editor of the Progressive
Farmer, says, "There are few farm
ers who would not find it good in
vestment to attend one Of these short
courses. No farmer is too old to go
to this sort of a practical school.
The average man is apt to think
there is nothing of practical value he
can get from one of these short
courses at an agricultural college
which will be of real value in dollars
and cents, but he is mistaken. Those
who have never attended such a
school are not good judges of its
value. The best judges are those
who have taken such a short course,
and they almost universally agree
that the investment is a good one.
Helpful instruction will be given on
soils, crops, fertilizers, injurious in
sects, and crop diseases. In animal
husbandry, breeds of livestock and
judging, feeds and feeding, growing
of forage crops, and diseases of live
stock will be studied. Special at
tention will also be given to dairying,
including breeds Of dairy cattle, for
age and silage crops, milk and milk
testing, dairy machinery and butter
making. There will also be a course
in horticulture, including a stu,>;- =.
truck and fruit crops, and their
cultivation and management. Graft
ing, pruning, spraying, diseases, etc.
will also be taught.
"In short, the value of such a
course is, it seems to us, so apparent
that it is strange that 1000 farmers
do not go to it every year. Never
before in the history of the world
was it so necessary to have accurate
and definite knowledge of any bust
ness to get the most out of it, and
this is becoming more particularly
true of farming as the years go by.
But the best part of a short
course in agriculture to the average
young farmer is that he learns some
thing of what there is to be known
about his business, and he also usual
ly gets a desire to know more about
farming and learns how he can do
this by his own efforts. He simply
gets the desire to know as much
about his business and make as great
success of it as anyone else, and the
wonder is that anyone should have
less ambition than this in his life
work"

WHAT DOES A CAL.
ORIE MEAN To YOU?

a family consisting of father
mother, and three children requires
about a hundred and twenty 100
calorle portions for an adequate daily
diet"
How much would that have meant
to the average housekeeper ten years
ago? She probably could not have
told whether calories were ISLANDS OF
canned goods" as Mr.. Dooley said OF
the Philippines Lately, however, say
the authorities in charge of this work
in the U. S. Department of Agricul,
ture, calories have been taken and
written about so much that the house.
wife at least has a vague notion that
they are in some way connected with
the value of food to the body and that
the more calOries she can provide for
her family, the better it will be nour-
ished. The U. S. Department of Agri'
culture has recently published some ia
bles which make it easier for her to
"count the calories" as well as the cost
of the food she buys She can use
such tables without knowing anything
more about calories, just as she can
use electric light without understand.
ing the kilowatt hours that appear in
the monthly bill; but calorieS are
neither so mysterious nor so compli-
Gated that she can not easily under
stand what they are.
The word calorie comes from
"calor," a word meaning heated. A
calorie is a unit for measuring guam
titles of heat just as yard is a unit
for measuring length or a pound for
weight. Roughly, calorie equals the
amount of heat required to raise the
temperature of a pound of water 4 de-
grees Fahrenheit.
But this is not the whole story.
What we call heat and what we call
energy are really different forms of
the same force. The heat of the sun,
the strength of the winds, the warmth
from the fire, the pressure of the eX-
panding steam or exploding gas in the
engine, even the flowing of sap in the
plant and the contraction of the mus
cles in our bOdies-all these are due to
the same universal energy showing it
self in different ways. Coal is made
up of substances held together by this
same energy, and so is gasoline or any
other kind of fuel. When the fuel is
burned, the energy is set free in the
form of heat which in its turn may be-
come the force that drives the ma
chine In this last form we call it
mechanical energy, and we know that
a given amount of heat will yield an
equivalent amount of mechanical ener-
gy. Thus our calOrie may represent
either enough heat to raise the tenn
perature of one pound of water 4 de.
grees f. or enough mechanical force to
lift one ton about one foot and a nalf.
Now, food is fuel for our bodies and
energy stored in it can be released in
the body and used for keeping it warm
or for the work of the muscles, much
the way. as gasoline is released and
used when the gas is consumed in the
motor The more we exercise our
muscles the more mechanical energy
we release and the more must be pro-
vided by our food fuel. In order to
make sure that we are stocking our
body engine rightly, we must be able
to say both how much energy our food
yields (called its fuel or energy value)

HOW TO USE CALORIE TABLES

Other things than body fuel are
necessary IN human food. Not all Of
the necessary fuel may safely be taken
from potatoes nor yet all of it from
beefsteak. Scientific investigations
have shown that of the 12O 100-calorie
portions necessary for the family OF
five, about "A should come from vege,
tables and fruits, 36 from milk, eggs
and meat, 80 from cereals and legumes,
~ from sugar and sugary foods, and
is from fats and fatty foods. If these
amounts are used as a guide in plan
ming the meals of a healthy family,
there is little need to worry about
their getting the right kinds of guam
titles of foods.
Now a 100-calorie portion of some
meats cost a good deal more than o
1O0-calorie portion of other meats.
This is the case too with vegetables,
and fruits, cereals, fats, and sweets
The cheapest food per pound is not al.
ways the cheapest food per 1OO-calOrie
portions. In this day of high prices,
the housewife is interested in know
ing what foods that will adequately
feed the family can be bought cheapest
figured on sustenance basis rather
than on a pound or pint basis. Anc
that is what the tables prepared by the
Department of Agriculture do for her,
BY using the tables, she can de
termine the price of a 1O0-calorie por'
ton Of a particular food. All she has
to do is to. insert the price per pound
or bushel at the proper place in the
third column and divide it by the cor.
responding figure in the second
column.
The Maryville times. (Maryville, Tenn.) 1884-1944, 1919-12-31
Here's An Example.

To illustrate: Suppose the meat
market man tells her that sirloin steak
is 80 cents a pound. She writes 800
opposite sirloin steak in the third
column. Then she looks in the second
column and finds, opposite sirlOin
steak, 40 per pound" She divides sc
by 10. The quotient is 5. Five cents,
therefore, is the price of 100-calorie
portion of sirloin steak. In exactly
the same way, she can find the cost
per 100calorie portion of any food,
And what is more, if she gets n the
habit of thinking in 100-caloriej por,
lions as well as in pounds and br shells.
she will very soon know how much
such a portion of steak or apples or
macaroni represents and then she will
be able to estimate easily whetner or
not she is getting what her family
needs and at the best prices.

MALLARDS BEST FOR
WILD DUCK, FARMS
Industry Should be Developed to
Supplement the Decreasing
Supply of Game

Washington, Jan. 2.-Raising mall
lard ducks is an industry which
should be developed as extensively as
possible in order to supplement the
decreasing natural supply of game,
according to a bulletin recently pub
lished by the United States Depart
n1ent of Agriculture. The ease with
which the mallard can be bred makes
it the best species for wild duck farm
ing, and its beauty, popularity, hard
mess, adaptability and fecundity fit
it as no other duck is fitted, to be
the game duck of the future.
