DIR West of the state board OF
health spoke of the need for greater
sanitation and application of hygiene
rules in rural sections, showing that
the death rate is greater in those sec
tions than in the cities and towns. He
also spoke of the enormous number OF
deaths of infants in Tennessee and
told how much Of this mortality could
be prevented by proper care and feed
ing Of infants. He urged registration
of all births, saying that if all OF
them are not properly registered the
county will give improper percent
tage of deaths in the vital statistics
records. This registration also is
useful in mature years in giving proof
of, citizenship and making other legal
proof.
Miss MCGOWAN, home demonstra-

LARGEST ACREAGE
CRIMSON CLOVER TO
Be S0WN IN COUNTY
MANY FARMERS WILL TRY THE
GREATEST OF WINTER PAS
TURE CROPS.
GOOD SEED BED IS URGED
When Land Is prepared Seed ShrouId
Be Sown at the First Good Season
After August 20, Advises Prof. Nc
Lean, County Agent.

More crimson clover will be sown
in Maury county this fall than has
ever been sown in single year, is the
estimate made by Prof. Mclean, the
county agent, who is thoroughly ia
miliar with the situation. Prof. Nc
Lean stated this morning that he per.
sonally knew that more farmers would
SOW the crimson clover than ever be-
fore and that the total average would
be larger.
This clover, the premier crop for
winter pasturage and soil building in
the estimate of the experts, should be
sown as soon after August 20 as the
conditions will permit Lands should
be prepared at once if they have not
already been put in condition and con-
stantly worked until the crop is sown
This should be at the first season"
after August 28 The crop can then
be sown at any time after a good
season." but late sowing is not ad-
vised. Prof Mclean is of the opin-
ion that it should not be sown except
under unusual conditions later than
the latter part of September.
A hushel of crimson clover, proper
ly distributed, will sow five acres. At
present prices the cost of the seed will
be $3.50 an acre. Considering the val
ue of the crop for winter pasturage
and as a soil builder, this is not ex-
pensive The county agent is devot-

Japan Keeps Draft Army

tonsrription in Japan is regarded in
matter of fact way, like taxes or
other civic duty, and not thing of
an emergency. SO the family whose
member or members have enlisted OBJ
serves without complaint the Spar
tame spirit Of self denial. courageouslv
suppressing any sentimental turn of
mind. Many people send their con-
sratulations to their friends who have
enlisted in the army, though with tears
IN their eyes. but never giving express
sion to the personal feeling of sorrow
or regret. At .he departure of those
soldiers fer tie battlefield their friends
see them OF with the word "Never
come back alive again. We shah meet
YOUR soul at the Yasukuni Shrine
This is rather different from the west
ern manner of bidding goodby to the
expeditionary soldiers. when they would
tell those soldiers that they expect
their safe return after winning the war
The Spartanic spirit of Japanese
civilians has too often been regarded
as an aggressive militaristic tendency
of the Japanese But it is rather an
unsympathctc attitude of criticism to
regard the inherited indomitable spirit
of the Japanese as deliberate bru-
tality and perfdious vandalism after
the German type. 1t may we'll be
observed that it is because the Jap
aHese are not yet perfectly civilized
that they are fully qualified to be war
riors. And it seems that the future

AN examination for this position
was called by the Municipal Civil Ser

tion. The general list was established
and it is found that of the first "a
names on the list 20 are women, Of the
hrst 80 names SO are women. It is
also known that the women who arc
at present serving are doing good
work. Furthermore, about 40 per cent
OF the cases referred by the schools to
the Bureau of Attendance are those Of
girls. Since women constitute only
~ per cent of the force. it is eviden
that most of these girls cases are in
vestigated by the male attendance Of

I've have nothing against the male
attendance officers so far as their work
is concerned. We feel however. that
the women should be given fair repre-
sentation in this work, especially since
they qualified so high
