"FAIR AND SQUARE"

The individual quota system, recog-
nized everywhere as the Fair and
Square" plan, is to be used in large
proportion of the Sixth Federal Re
serve district in the approaching Vic.
tory Loan campaign.
Under this plan, definite quota
based on property and income is as.
signed every resident of the county
and he is asked to invest that sum
in the Victory Loan. 1t is intended il
this way to see that every. man bears
his share of the load and knows his
neighbor down the road also is carry
ing his share, instead of penalizing the
more patriotic who are willing to take
on an extra load to put their counties
over the top.

WATCH THE CATTLE
YOU BUY

| Veterinary inspectors Of the
Tennessee department of agri.
Iculture and the Federal bureau
LOT animal industry, who tested
i3 carloads of cattle received
from Illinois few months age
Iby Tennessee purchasers, found
THAT tuberculosis existed among
$50 to 90 percent of the animals
acquired. The section from
which the cattle were received
| is now under investigation, and
the case promises to parallel
that of an Illinois cattle dealer
who was recently convicted in
the Federal court for using the
United States mails to defraud
prospective purchasers Of dairy
cattle.
The bureau, backed by the
scientific and legal stats of the
department of agriculture, is de-
termined that the new dairy
communities of the South and
other parts of the country shall
not be made a dumping ground
for diseased cattle sold by I'M
scrupulous dealers. Investiga-
lions have shown that southern
herds in central are relatively
free from tuberculosis. Of 5000
cattle recently tested in herds
supplying milk to Birmingham,
Ala, only AT were found to be
tuberculous. That is less than |
percent, which is much below
the estimated average for the
United States as a whole.
More cases of tuberculosis US
ually are found among the dali
ny herds in and near cities than
among native cattle, because the
former herds are augmented
more often by animals shipped
in from outside. The problem is
to guard importations. Farmers
are urged to use precautions.

LETTER FROM FRANCE
Charvesson, France, 3-2


Dear Homefolks:
Will try and answer your let
ter just received tonight. Sure
was glad to hear from you all
You said you got a letter from
Mack German and he was ii
Germany. Why didn't you senc
me his address?
YOU said you had been watch.
ing the papers for the 8lst di.
vision to start home. | don't
think we will be home soon,
think we will go to Germany
after July LIST. We had a big
parade the goth. Passed in re-
view. General Pershing and the
King and Queen of Belgium. l
got a good view of them. was
one of the guards. 1t was very
nice but it did not interest me.
am tired of this army business
as | did not mind it when the
war was going on but now |
sure am tired of it.
Can't tell you very much now
but I sure will have lots to tell
everybody when | come home.
guess some of the boys around
Dutch are coming now, guess
they tell you about the ca.
we are getting over here. We
are now having everything but
a good time. There sure is no
good time over here.
Every one is saying Il want
to go home"
What was Eugene Condry?
Guess he was an officer in some
company. Has Peck Hurst and
Jim Majors come home yet?
guess Jimmy Satterfeld and
Fred Farmer are sleeping some
where in France in a lonely
graveyard. Their division lost
hundreds of men. They were in
one of the worst battles and
they sure did do their part. If
l were some of those yellow
towards that got out of coming
to do their "bit" in this World
War | sure could not face the
boys when they come back home
Every man that came to France
sure did do his part. I have gone
four weeks with nothing to eat
but corn beef, tomatoes and
hard tack.
l hope we will never have an
other war. Like Sherman said
"War is He'll" but we have won,
thank God, lost some several of
our boys but they went down
brave and never flicIIered. We
went to the Verdun front on
the Bird of November and was
there nine days. Was up unload
ing when the armistice was
signed. We only had one man
wounded with shell. Our infan-
try lost several men.
| am fine and dandy. Am glad
to hear the boys are fine. Where
is Charlie Watson? Well guess
| will soon close as it is getting
late. Write me Macks address
Forgot to say anything about
Kitty. only hope She got gooC
man.
There will be plenty of girls
left for me.

day soon.
Well be good and write M

Yours with love and best wisl
es to everybody.

AGRICULTURAL REVIEW
Conference Dealing with Farm Problems
Grange Finds No Community of Interests with A. F. of L.
New National Organization Solidly Grounded.
business Feature Scrvice.)

Secretary Houston has recently
made reference to the special agri-
cultural conference suggested in
connection with the industrial con-
ference of October.
The president is known TO favor
a gathering to develop compre-
hensive flexible program. "Pres-
ent conditions, and particularly pres
ent states of mind,' declares Secre-
tary Houson, indicate the need of a
broad, fresh survey of rural life, Of
its special problems, and Of its re-
lationships."
Rural life has special problems,
and more today than ever before.
The most outstanding is the prob
lem of prices: Shall the farmer re-
ceive fair price for his product or
shall he, in the return to normal
levels, bear the whole brunt of in
itiating lower prices? The farmers
special problems need discussion
and sympathetic understanding treat
ment by farmers representatives
in conference with men from other
walks of life. But conferences
which end in conference, instead of
action are futile. The average farm
er today. if questioned, would prob
ably express himself somewhat en-
phatically as favoring less theorati-
cal discussion and investigation and
more practical accomplishment.
The National Grange at its recent
meeting, it is significant to note,
found no real community of inter-
ests with organized labor. Its flat
refusal to meet with union leaders
December 13 expressed the farmers
growing opposition TO wage de-
mands, coupled with shorter hours,
that seek to raise the wage standard
generally approved by fair progress
Sive minds at time when produc-
ton does not admit of higher stand
ards. A feeling long existent cry
stallized at the Grange convention.
In this connection it is interesting to
note that the farmers government
of North Dakota, although seeking
affiliation with organized labor and
granting labor in that state definite
concessions, was the first to put the
coal mines under state control. The
farmers mode of dealing with this
SItuatiOH suggests no alllance viii
the present strike movement or
compromise on points vitally effect
ing the public interest.
1t is of course natural that a
state where government ownership
and control are much in vogue
should invoke state control. The
prompt measures taken to insure
production may be attributed as
much to this fact as to the political
