Next year, in March or April, the

 holds it's annual meeting in Bisbee. It
 is said that at least two auto, trips are scheduled for the entertainment of the visiting club members; one to Doug 1 las the Shelter City, about 30 miles l east of Bisbee and the other to the famous old mining town of Tombstone, about 25 miles to the north and reached over modern mountain highway.

 How cheap was the price may be judged from the fact that white mice a fortnight earlier were quoted at 10 cents apiece in lots of one hundred or more White rats were then worth 27 cents, but they dropped coincidentally to cents.
 The reason lay in the fact that the government, which had been buying millions of white mice and white rats for medical experiments, and for use in diagnosing war diseases at base hospitals, withdrew from the market.

KILLED BY FALLING TREE.
Fred Tabor Killed Friday Morning While
Loading Logs on Wagon.

Fred Tabor. aged 22 years. son OF
W. s. S. Tabor, Creston, was killed
Friday morning about seven o'clock by
being struck on the head by dead
tree that blew down.
1t seems that Fred Tabor and ]. E.
King had taken teams to the woods to
haul hogs to the-saw mill being run by
James Smith. two miles north of town.
They had loaded one wagon and were
fastening down the boom pole on the
second, when small dead tree blew
down and struck Fred Tabor on the
head, rendering him unconscious. He
died about an hour later. without re-
gaining consciousness. The wind was
blowing quite hard and during the
course of loading the logs on to the
wagons, the young man had noticed
the dead tree and remarked that it
was dangerous to work SO near it. He
did not see the tree when it started to
fall and had no knowledge of it until
it STRUCK him.
The young man was called IN the Sc
lective draft last summer and left here |
with bunch of men. when he
reached CAMP and a more rigid exam
nation was given him, he was turned !
iown for physical weakness of some
character.
The remains were taken to the Tabor
lome, near Creston, and were buried
n the FIetonia cemetery Saturday.
The deceast T! was single.

CHEAPEST FERTILIZER.
Cotton Seed Meal and Acid Phosphate
Are so Pronounced This Year,

In veiw 0 the fact that cost of pro-
duetion of food and feed crops is bound
to be high this year, the question that
becomes most important is, what is
the cheapest fertilizer this year.
This subject has been given very
careful attention by some of the best
Informed argiculturists of the south
and the virdict is that cotton seed
meal and acij phospate is the fertilizer
trat most farmers should use. Potash
is SO very high that the small amount
that is required should be secured
through wood ashes. In his section
it is well understood that potash is
not needed except in growing pota-
toes on the intensive plan: some is
used otherwise, but the results are not
very encouraging.
1t Is urged that cotton seed meal and
acid phospate be used on the basis of
200 pounds pnuspate and 100 pounds
cotton seed meal. Nitrate is urged as
q side blessing. When itrate cannot
be had cotton seed neal may be used
to furnish the nitrogen. but the meal
must be applied longer ahead OF the
time results are expected than with
citrate.
Farmers are urged to fertilize. heav-
ier this year and cultivate fewer acres
with the idea. Of inslining along the
lines of intensive farming rather than
extensive for large crops. Such q
course will materially help out the
labor problem.

SHOCKING WASTE.
Millions That Are Of No Benefit Spent
at Muscle SheaIs.

1t has recently been given out thai
over seventy millions of dollars has
been spent in the construction of the
big nitrate plant at Muscle Shaols that
10 absolutely waste. The editor of the
Chronicle has recently come in posses.
sion of some facts touchisg that big
work that explains how considerable
Of the waste may have COME about.
Here are n few Of the wastes:
A water boy who waited on gang
Of carpenters is paid $55 week.
Ia one of the big stores there are
five cash registers. That would not
necessitate more than i've cashiers,
but there are eleven and each cashier
draws $3S a week.
Large houses are built by carpenters
who are paid from Soto $40 snd more q
day. In few weeks after the build.
ing II completed force of men are set
to work tearing the building down.
The lumber is cut up tor kindling or
put in piles and burned. In few days
another building of the same kind will
be built within a few yards of where
the other one stood. And that kind of
thing is kept going constantly.
In building the big concrete dam
many thousands of feet of good oak
lumber was used for the frame into
which the concrete is poured. This
lumber would be just as good to use
the second or third time as the first
time. But it is not used again. 1t is
hauled to mill where 1t is cut into
stove wood. This stove wsod is hauled
by SO teams to employees and given to
them at no cost,
This work, the same % the many
big cantonm ents that have teen built
for soldiers, is built on the percent
basis. That means certain percent
,t the cost is paid to the contractors
for doing the work. The moro they
Ipend the larger the profit Of the con.
tractors. That means the more they
waste the moro profit to the contrac-
tors.
Could any person devise more
method Of having work done?

more surely encourage graft and waste?

PLAN FOR BETTER ROADS
Interesting Proposal Made by the State
Automobile Owners.

A paved road equal to the city!
best streets serving every county seal
and center of population in the state
together with the maintenance for al
time to come, is what the automobile
owners of Tennessee are asking the
Legislature to permit them to present
to the state out of the saving on gaso.
line, up-keep etc, which such state
system of highways would give them.
In urging Tennessee to pass the bill
which has been introduced in both
houses calling a bond issue Of fifty mil
lion dollars for the construction and
maintenance of q state system Of per-
manent highways, automobile owners
show that an increase nf their license
fee to Sl.OO per II. P. for passager
cars and $l.O0 per H. z. plus So. 90 per
ton capacity for motor trucks, together
with the mill tax levy now collected
for state ala for roads, on the most
conservative estimate of the number
OF years in Tennessee during the next
twenty years. will retire the bonds,
pay the interest and the expense of
the state highway department. and
leave a surplus in excess of Sl?, 600. 0Uo
for maintenance. 1t is believed by
many conservative business men that
the surplus will be three times this
amount.
The automobile owners are insisting
that a comprehensive state system OF
permanent roads be built as they real
ize that the motor truck has proven
its economy and efficiency for the
short haul and that motor trucks will
be on the highways in rapidly in
creasinR numbers hauling food pro-
ducts from the farm to market and
passengers from town to town.
The Government is entering extern
siveIy into the parcel post motor ex-
press business and in few years will
this service for rural tree
delivery. The war has proven that
macadam or anything less than per-
manent type of road bed on the trunk
line highways will not Withstand the
present day motor traffic.
The bill which has been introduced
and has the support of leading mem
bers of both houses provides for
business administration of the high
way department.. II
The Highway Commission will take
over the maintenance of highways
built by the state, enabling the coun-
ties to spend their road funds on the
and maintenance of later ,
n roads connecting with the state
highways. Ii
The Legislation follows the model OF t
illinois, Pennsy lvania and Michigan, =
which have voted similar bond issues,
and which is being copied by dozen q
,r more states of the Union, including +
Georgia and South Carolina. Ala +
,ama, Mississippi and Louisiana have +
campaigns in preparation to follow the
cad of the other states.

MOST WONDERFUL COW

to say about her:
AS Tilly Alcartra, the real Dairy
Queen" of all the world, has just COM
pleted her six years. test, thought II
would be of interest to your readers to
call their attention to the wonderful
records this COW has made in the past
six years.
Think of COW in 1918 actually pro-
duciDg 80. 3.424.8l pounds of milk in 365
days and that milk producing 1923
pounds of butter!
Furthermore, try to comprehend that
this COW in six years according to reg
istered official tests, has produced 1856,
1861 pounds of milk and in this same
six years this milk if churned would
have produced 6.142.12 pounds of but
ter.
Tilly Alcartra stands in the world to-
day as the most economical food pro-
ducing machine history has ever known.
Not only does she produce food with
the utmost economy but she yields the
sort of food that is necessary to man.
kind and food that can least be spared
of all. /
What better dumb friend can any
farmer. or any town man for that mat. |
ter, show care and give attention to
that will bring such results as q pure |
bred Holstein COW?
This Tilly Alcartra COW took 37,42O
pounds Of food and what alfalfa hay
was raised in the pastures and manu-
facturd it into 33.424.S1 pounds of
milk. She took the cheap
eat sort of roughage that grows in the
fields, combined with little grain and
brought forth a complete food for
man, more nearly perfect than all the
scientific laboratories in the world have
oeen able to advise so far.

Wholesale prices for 1920 a year-that
8, as you readily figure. this cow pro-
lued $76. .66 2-3 worth of milk each
month.
In her eleventh month, after fresh
ming, she produced an average OF 81
'ounds of milk day. and figuring 8
,ounds to the gallon would make it ,
yer II gallons of milk per day, and
hat not only after being on test for ,
leven months. but for six consecutive
ears :
Yes, it is true that Tilly Alcartra is

TAKE ALL DISEASE
NOT SERIOUS DANGER
DECLARES WALLACE

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, July IL
Frank N. Wallace. entomologist in
the department of conservation, before
departing to establish guarantees in
the three counties in which the take
all disease has been discovered on
wheat, declared there is no reason
why the farmers and grain dealers
throughout the state should be alarm
ed in the least.
Wallace advised the farmers in dis
tricts outside of a half-mile radius
of the infected farms in Tippecanoe,
Porter and Laports Counties. to go
ahead with their thrashing. He also
advised the elevator proprietors out
side of the infected district not to
hesitate in accepting the grain.
The alarm that has been spread be-
cause of the negligible amount Of take,
ali in Hoosier fields has caused all
kinds of wild rumors to circulate
Wallace said. One Of them IS to the
effect that wheat on which rust has
made it's appearance must be burned
MI Wallace advised persons who
brought such rumors to him that 1t
was ridiculous" as rust was presen,
in 80 percent of the wheat fields.
The state conservation department
feels CONFIDENT that the Federal gov
eminent, when it is appraised Of the
real situation will not place any quar-
antine on Indiana grain. Wallace
will place before the Federal horti
cultural board the facts, namely, thai
there are only two small patches Of
the disease in the state and that these
are confened to a few farms in Tip
pecanoe county and a few farms II
near the Porter and Laports county
