FEEDERS NEED CHARCOAL

Feeders of hogs thruout Tennessee
are having difficulty in securing
charcoal for their animals. Pro
ducers of such a commodity evidently
are very scarce, and very difficult to
find. AS a result of this, c. E!
Brehm, market specialist with the
Division of Agricultural Extension,
asks for information regarding men
having it for sale.
Charcoal is very valuable for hogs
that are being fattened, and for this
reason those who are feeding are
very anxious to get in communication
with dealers or producers, or anyone
from whom they can buy a satisfact-
DRY supply. Judging from the demand
that has recently been shown for this
produce, some one who would build
up a statewide reputation as a deal
err or producer, soon could create a
very profitable business.
A group of feeders who are vitality
interested might produce their own
supply and build a splendid business
by selling to others.

COOPERATIVE cREAMERIES PAY

The cooperative creamery method
of selling products of a dairy pays
more than other methods, say those
who profted by the plan.
According to records just compiled
the following prices were received by
patrons of Tennessee cooperative
creameries for the month of August.
Franklin County Cooperative
creamery, Winchester, co. V cents.
Chapel Hill Cooperative creamery,
Chapel Hill, 60 cents.
Wilson County Cooperative cream
cry, Lebanon, 60 cents.
Robertson County Cooperative
creamery, Springfield, 81 cents.
Bedford County Cooperative
creamery, Shelbyville, 81 cents.
Rutherford County Cooperative
creamery, Murfreesboro, GA cents.
Some of the creameries have made
excellent records, due to the fact that
they are producing results for their
members. During August the Ruther-
ford County unit produced $4,000
pounds of butter; Franklin County
nearly as much. The Wilson County
organization, which has been in
operation only three years, made
$4,000 pounds. Creameries at
Springfield and Shelbyville have open
ed recently. The Shelbyville plant
which opened August 20 made $500
pounds until September l. At that
time it had 124 patrons and new ones
were being added to the list every
day.

PLENTY TO DO, BUT

Farmers usually can find plenty to
do on the place if they have pride
and wish their premises always to
look we'll. They also can find plenty
to do to make the most out of the
soil, and to conserve it after it is
made.
These suggestions, which may be
added to by the farmer who has in
innate knowledge of what needs to
be done, will aid him in doing his
October work:
In the Fields
Get the wheat land ready and in
good shape. Sow wheat after the
first heavy frost that will kill the
Hessian fly. Sow about one sixth of
your land in grains, including wheat,
oats, barley and rye. Keep on sow
ing rye until winter stops you. Sc
lect your seed corr in the field.
Haul in your corn-stover. Later in
the month turn the hogs and calves
on winter pastures when the fields
are dry.
Around the Barns
See that the cows go into the win
ter in good condition. Keep the
milk cows warm during the first few
cold nights and prevent lessening of
The Maryville times. (Maryville, Tenn.) 1884-1944, 1919-10-15

their milk flow. Calculate the num-
Der of cattle your feed will winter
we'll. Allow one pound of hay and
three pounds of silage for each one
hundred pounds of live weight. Keep
live stock in the barns when they are
not in the fields; do not let them
stand in the barnyard where manure
is dropped and lost. Do not overfeed
sow at narrowing time; save every
pig. Gradually increase the feed of
sows that are sucking pigs. Begin
feeding hogs one pound of tankage
to every ten pounds of corn. Shelter
implements. Make crib rat proof.
Garden, Poultry
Plant salad onions; store root
crops. Grade and market potatoes.
Move pullets into winter houses; put
blue ointment on them to kill.
In the Home
Keep a small fire at night and
morning. Clean the house. Put
away summer clothing; make winter
clothing. Preserve food for picking.
At the Desk
Make a list of the jobs to be done
during the winter season. Follow
this by seeing that they are done.

THIS CORN ~REDOMINATES

Meals Paymaster corn has been
the predominating variety shown at
most of the Tennessee fairs this year,
altho a number ofo Their good varie-
ties have been exhibited. Some com
munities have shown little else. 1t is
an old variety which until a few
years ago was unheard OF, but its
fame recently has spread like wild
fire.
Its rapid growth to popularity is
due largely to the fact that it has
great utility, having met with sue
cess in the greatest number of places
where it has been tried. 1t has fail
ed, however, in some places where the
attitudes are so high that the seasons
are too short to permit it to mature.
This fact illustrates the Importance
of first knowing the limitations of a
variey before it is introduced, except
on a small scale, in a new place.
Such limitations can be determined
only by conservative trial and study.

specially tilted seat, the starting and

but the cars of several years ago got
along very we'll without them until the

Mud splashed on the feminine occu-

CONSIDERABLE DECREASE
IN COST OF GASOLINE MAY
BE EXPECTED IN FUTURE
Action Of Government In Restoring
Tank caraoes to Owners Given
as Cause for Drop.

A considerable decrease in the
price Of gasoline may be expected
In the near future as result of
the United States shipping boards
action in turning back las tankers
which had been Communicated for
war purposes and which are now
returned to their owners. The
majority Of these vessels will be
employed soon to transport oil to
this country from Mexican fields.
The total dead weight tonnage of
the ships returned to their owners
is 1,14O,000.
The oil reserve of the United
States has been drained of approx
imately 25,000,00O barrels by war
demands. Figures published re-
Gently here show that, despite pop
ular belief, the greater part Of
British oil was derived from Mex
leo, all but 3 per cent in reality
came from the United States, which
was obliged to supply the British
as well as the American armies
with oil.
1t is stated here that importa-
tions Of oil from Mexico probably
will exceed 100000 barrels dur
ing the next IL months. This, it is
expected, will result in a decrease
in the price of gasoline and oils in
this country.-Motor Age.
