REDUCE ACREAGE
OF WHEAT CROP
IN MAURY COUNTY
FROM THAT OF THIS
YEAR GENERALLY PROVE
DISAPPOINTING.
SHORTAGE OF LABOR ALSO
Indications Point 10 Large Increase
IN the Grass Area of the County as
Farmers Are Unable to Obtain
Workers.

There will be a substantial reduc-
tion in the wheat acreage sown in
Maury county this fall. Just what the
reduction will be canot be ascertained
at this time but it will amount to not
less than twenty-five per cent as com
pared to that of the past year seems
certain. In some sections of the coun-
ty practically no preparations are be-
ing made to SOW wheat. Even in the
big wheat growing sections there will
be reduction.
1t was expected that the acreage
for the county would be less than that
of last year, because in 1918 a vigor-
Gus campaign was conducted by the
war agencies for victory wheat
crop" and appeals were made to the
farmers to SOW wheat as a patriotic
duty. No such appeal is made now
and no campaign is being made to
secure the sowing of wheat This
would account for a part of the redue-
tion, but the main reason comes from
the difficulty of securing labor.
Farmers found from their expert
ence this year even with government
guarantee as to price that wheat was
on the whole less profitable than any
crop grown. The average yield for
the entire state of Tennessee for this
year was estimated at eight bushels
1t is douhtly if the average for Maury
county was ten bushels to the acre
On many fields of the county it was
not much more than half this. When
the expense of sowing and reaping and
threshing are taken into consideration
many farmers would not have made
money if they had received SO bush
ell, The quality was so poor that the
wheat brought less than 50 from many
fields.
There will be large increase in the
area of winter cover crops and in pas
lures and meadows. Every effort is
being made by the farmers to solve
the labor shortage by sowing these
crops that require the minimum of
labor, Corn will be the one crop of
the county next year that must be cul-
tivated and harvested, except hay

But VOTERS OF COUNTY SHOW
ABSOLUTELY NO INTEREST
IN THE QUESTION.
VERY LIGHT VOTE EXPECTED
From Present indications Majority
VIII Vote Against Changes at This
Time in the Organic Law of the
State.

Although just a week from today
the voters of Maury county win pass
upon the question of calling a consti-
tutional convention, no one can be
found who will hazard a prediction as
to the result or even guess the size Of
the vote. Never in general election
has so little interest been manifested
in this county The politicians are alb
solutely taking no part in the contest
and The Herald has been unable to
find any advocate of the convention
who is planning to make any campaign
to induce the others to vote for it.
From present indications the con-
vention will be defeated in the coun-
ty. The vote will be light, but there
is more talk and more activity among
those opposed to changing the organ
is law than there is among the advo-
Gates of the convention. Everything
is so unsettled there is so much Of
Bolshevism in the cities,s~~tiratvtii
farmers generally are taking the posi-
ton that they had better let well
enough alone and do no constitution
tinkering at this time.
The election will mark the first test
of the new law which makes service
as an election officer compulsory But
for this act it would doubtless be ex-
ceedingly difficult to get officers at
some of the polling places. 1t will
also be the first election in which wo-
men have served as officers,
To vote in the election next week all
voters liable for same must have paid
their poll taxes not later than August
4, and if they reside in the third sew
enth or ninth districts, must have
registered at the recent general regis
tration.
