WILSON COUNTY PROUD OF BIG
DAIRY RECORD

Wilson is the only county in the
State in which there is a cooperative
creamery, COW testing association,
and a bull association.
Farmers of this very rich county
are as proud of their record as
Blount county agriculturists are that
theirs is the greaest Aberdeen-Angus
county south of the Ohio river.
Recently in Wilson county get
together picnic was held at which the
spirit of cooperation was greatly
was greatly boosted. About 1000
splendid farmers and dairymen at
tended.
Farmers of this county realize that
successful dairying is accomplished
only when the cycle is completed as
they have completed theirs. The bull
association is necessary to guarantee
that frst-class sires shall always be
available, the cow-testing association
is essential as a medium hru which
improbable cows shall be eliminated,
and the cooperative creamery is need
ed in order that higher grade of
butter may be made, and higher price
therefore procured for it.

MANY COMMUNITY AND
COUNTY FAIRS

Fairs, fairs, fairs, everywhere.
"More community fairs than ever
in Tennessee" is the opinion of all of
those who have observed them.
Almost every county and home u-
monstration agent reports either zone
community or county fair.
81 have been boosting for COM
munity exhibits at the fair" writes
Mary B. MCGOWAN, of Shelby county.
"At Grassland, Summer County,
near Franklin, we talked about COM
munity exhibits to be made at the
fair" says Kate M. Wells, district
agent.
Outlook for the fair is bright, "
writes Mabel Moore, home demon
stration agent for Greene county.
Turnout the whole list of SPECIAL
lists and demonstration agents, runs
the same optimistic note for success.

ACRE FARMER
MAKES MONEY

D. D. Freeborn, of Washington
county, has made a wonderful sue
cess on a twenty-five acre farm. He
has done it by Systematically rotat-
ing his crops, and the growing Of
purebred poultry.
The writer was privileged on
August 23 to go over the farm in
company with the owner. We visited
one eight-acre corn field to which had
been applied twenty-five two horse
wagon loads of poultry manure, and
an equal amount of stable manure.
The corn looked so promising that the
most conservative farmer estimates
that it will yield 80 bushels or 16 bar
rels per acre. Near this is a one-half
acre field of red kidney beans, and a
two-acre patch of corn which is fol-
lowing oats. Some other stubble
land is carrying good crop of clover,
which makes a pasture for his four
dairy cows.
August Is Mr.. Freedom sold all of
his hens at 27 cents a pound, and he
has thoroly renovated his poultry
house with one of the tar products
applied with spray pump. He fol-
lowed this by scattering lime every
where
1t seemed strange to find a poultry
farm without single hen on it, but
after we crossed the creek we found
Ats March Matched pullets that have
already started to lay, and are wait
ing anxiously to get into winter
quarters.
Mr.. Freeborn has selected his hens
for size as we'll as egg produccorn,
and finds therefore that when his
yearlings and two year olds, weigh
ing upwards of four pounds, go on
the market, they have yielded a profit
over the dollar that each has cost.
Supplies purchased by Mr.. Free
born consist of meat scraps, oyster
shells. grit, charcoal, some wheat

GOV. LOWDEN
FOR PRESIDENT

You are already aware of a per-
sistent noise. 1t will increase in
volume and pitch for the next twelve
months. 1t is the mentioning of
candidates for the presidential nomi-
| nations. Some of these mentionings
sound to US like a coal scuttle with
the tongs and fire shovel in it falling
down the back stairs. Others strike
the ear more agreeably. 1t it agree
able, for example, to hear mention of
men like Gov. Frank o. Lowden of
Illinois, because, though lawyer by
profession, he has spent considerable
time in rather intimate contact with
those practical affairs by which the
world gets it's living. We should
judge from hearsay and observation
that he would know offhand that for
the purpose of driving industrial
machinery steam is more dependable
than wind.
We don't pretend to have followed
governors utterances with Boswe,-
liam exactness, so we speak subject to
correction, but our impression is that
he does not regard business as a
crime which may be good naturally
tolerated when it is in the small or
petty larceny state, but which re-
quires the sternest repression when it
assumes the larger or homicidal state.
We suppose if any one began talking
to him about proletariats and wage
slaveries and plutocracies, what
would rise in his mind would not be
page 800 of Karl Marks Capital but
a picture of an actual American COM
munity, with it's actual shops and fac
tories and pay rolls and people and
ballot boxes; and he would want to
know exactly what the talker meant
by those mouthy terms as applied to
America.
Because of these somewhat sketchy
impressions the mentioning of men
like Gov. Lowden is agreeable. You
know what happens when a board
that has long laid on the ground is
suddenly moved. The war was a
universal mover of lumber, useful
and otherwise; so in the collective
human mind every solitary bug, from
venerable old great-grandfather bug
down to the newest Matched, is now
up and moving. Put handful of
them and presidential bee under the
same bonnet and you have bad
combination.
We say to both parties: '"rrot out
your men of weight and poise and
solid understanding; men with grip
on those practical affairs upon whose
sane management not only our bread
and butter but our happiness, as a
matter of actual experience, largely
depend. We want nothing resembl-
ing a bolshevik Utopia in which
theory f1ourishes while the real hu-
man beings hunger and perish. Give
US candidates with horse sense and
practical experience. Saturday
